As an artist, choosing to cultivate and invest in your hometown's culture scene is always a tough decision, especially when the art capitals of New York and Los Angeles are calling. Cue in Bradford Lynn, born and raised in San Diego's South Bay, schooled in Los Angeles, artist and faithful San Diego Padres fan; had a great time catching up with one of my favorite local artists and overall one of the dopest humans in San Diego.

This week we will look at Justin Bieber's AR filter tracklist drop on Instagram,  a first look at Team USA's official NIKE Tokyo Olympic Fits and Padres talk prior to the 2020 Season. We'll also see what's cooking over at Bradford Lynn HQ 🤘🏽

Let's get it!

We all started the 26th of January 2020 on a very sad note with the news of Kobe Bryant's passing. As a generation that grew up with Kobe in their lives, we had to show our respects to the Bryant family and the victims of the tragedy that took place Sunday morning in Calabasas, California.

In true Mamba Mentality we decided to continue with recording this show despite our spirits being weighed down by the tremendous sadness of the day's events. For episode 005 of Back of House, we invited our good friend Will Remsbottom of Scrimshaw Coffee. What started as a DIY project for Will and his partner in 2017, has now become a local staple and a must stop for any coffee connoisseur visiting San Diego. With the newly launched lunch menu and new collaborations on the 2020 radar, we sat down with Will for some quality Back of House time over Topo Chicos.

This week we will look at Motorola's resurrection of the iconic RAZR silhouette, Louis Vuitton's move into the hospitality world and Pepsi's weird flex on the world of coffee.

Let's get it!

Kicking-off 2020 with a new vibe on the Back of House pod, we cleaned up our act and added a bit more definition to the show. To debut our first episode of the decade, we invited the homies Andy and Martin from San Diego's very own: The Travelers Club.

We got into some current culture and more details about their first BIG BIG show of the year with none other than Seattle's SANGO. In BOH tradition with end the show with Last LP + Last Meal where we share our last great album finds and meals. We didn't know Andy was so obsessed with Agua Chiles...sheesh 🥵
