October 8, 2026: As we all know it’s election time, and we here at CarpinteriaValleyRadio.com want to make sure that the citizens of our fair city get a chance to listen to the candidates and learn their reasons for running, and their possible solutions to problems facing our town (potholes, housing anyone?). We’ve had on Julia Mayer, Monica Solerzano, and this Thursday live at 12noon PT, Aja Forner will be in our studio, talking about the issues facing Carpinteria and her plans for addressing those issues. Aja has been a resident of Carpinteria for almost twenty years, and has become very involved in our community since day one. So please join us this Thursday on Bryan’s Radio Lunch Truck. Good conversation and music. We couldn’t ask for anything more.
TOM BLANCHARD, HOLLYWOOD DETECTIVE
We are so grateful for all of you who came out to the listening party at Rincon Mountain Winery Tasting Room on August 9. And now you can hear the first episode of Bryan’s radio show trilogy based on Tom Blanchard, Hollywood Detective. It’s called “Danger Is a Redhead” and it’s posted at the show’s YouTube channel here and at our Mixcloud channel here. Enjoy listening and let us know what you think about it. Enjoy! The next episode is already in the works.
