California Now Podcast - Podcast Rankings and reviews

My wife and I do a lot of sightseeing around the state, and this is my favorite California podcast so far. They tell you what to see and do beyond the touristy stuff. Interesting interviews about topics that were new to me, like where to go for craft beer. It's from the California Visitor's Bureau so they're not trying to sell you anything (except California!). Highly recommend.

I was a huge Soterios fan from his NPR days and was super psyched to learn he was hosting this podcast. I knew I'd learn a lot about California, of course. What I wasn't expecting was all of the other stuff I'd learn--from what those star ratings for hotels actually mean to how to get prepare for night of stargazing. Every episode has plenty of these little gems that keep me coming back for more. Check it out!

Disney, San Diego, San Francisco... it’s not hard to find things to do in California but the beauty of this podcast comes from the small scale and tailored recommendations.
