What's Up ABQ

This week’s episode is all about our New (Mexican) newb Lorenzo! We figured it’s time to take him out of the shadows and on to the mic. Lorenzo is a Native New Mexican with plenty of knowledge and a love for all things chile. Please listen and join us as we welcome What’s up ABQ’s newest Co-Host.

Sweet shoes - local creator. Need we say more?

In this episode, Lindsey (Ryan couldn't make it because he's super lame sometimes), talks with Tristan of Different Breed Customs about what it's like creating custom shoes with his signature NM-inspired art style, how things started, and (of course) green chile.

Learn more about Tristan and what he's up to HERE (https://www.instagram.com/different.breed.05/)

We're always looking for new local creatives to interview!

Until next time, stay classy, Burque!

Ok ok, so we all know how much New Mexican food is delicious. Seriously - it's kinda like one of our staple show questions at this point.

But what about Mexican food in the 505??

Enter Lindo Mexico!

Auri's family has a classic rags-to-riches story, starting with their original family roots down in Chihuahua, Mexico. Using their culinary history, they carried their passion for amazing northern Mexican food up the 505. And now we get to devour their amazing cuisine. In this one, we talk passion, talent, and the musts of what makes a restaurant truly excellent in Burque.

Looking for your next great going out to eat dinner here in town? Head on over to their main location on Central at 7209 (near the corner of Louisianna and Central by Talin).

Also, if you're up in the Heights you're in luck!

Until next time, Happy Spring!

You've probably seen them around. You've probably even got your thrift on there too!

But did you know there's a ton more that our local Goodwill Industries does on an everyday basis to help our community?

Get a personal perspective of yet another awesome non-profit here in Burque as we chat with Ramon Torres, Program Manager on all the stuff they have going on as well as their perspective on the sorts of challenges New Mexicans are facing right now and whats being done about it.

The Sandias, the Rio Grande, Santa Fe National Forest, the Gila, the Taos box...

Seriously, we have a ton when it comes to getting up and outside. Now, we can go with a pro like Corey Spoores of MST Adventures, based right here in the 505. In this episode, we talk snowshoeing, hiking, kayaking - even forest bathing. If you've been wanting to get out more (like out Out), you're gonna love this one.

Put on your hiking boots, sunglasses, and grab a bottle or two of water and enjoy!
