In this episode of Up+Adam:Breaking & Entering Jingle Jam lineup and details for December 11 in downtown SLOA deeper look at LA’s Palisades Fire and the questions still hanging over itPismo Beach’s Surfing for Hope Longboard Classic and how it supports local cancer patientsNipomo’s new bronze memorial honoring the real "Migrant Mother" and her storyCentral Coast rain outlook to start the weekThanksgiving timing tips, stomach saves, and how not to be the problem at dinnerThis one is a full holiday plate. Adam kicks things off with breaking news on this year’s Breaking & Entering Jingle Jam, happening Thursday, December 11 at Libertine Brewing in downtown San Luis Obispo. He walks through the lineup so far - Damon Castillo Band, KB of IMVA, Dan Curcio of Moonshiner Collective, Josh Rosenblum, Jon Millsap, Michael Venia of Carbon City Lights, and Brianna Lee and Josh Barrett from B and the Hive - and how the night ties into making Christmas magical for a local family who really needs it.From there, we hit a run of Lofi Headlines that start heavy and land right here at home. Adam breaks down new scrutiny over how the most destructive fire in Los Angeles history really started and whether it could have been stopped days earlier. Then it is straight to the pier as top longboard surfers roll into Pismo for the Surfing for Hope Longboard Classic, chasing World Surf League spots and raising money for local families fighting cancer, with Adam talking about why this crew is so close to his heart. We wrap that block in Nipomo, where the community just unveiled a bronze memorial to Florence Owens Thompson, the woman in Dorothea Lange’s famous "Migrant Mother" photo, and what it means to literally anchor that story in local soil.Because it is that kind of week on the Central Coast, Adam also runs through your rain pattern for the next few days so you know when you are dodging showers and when you might actually see the sun. Then we get into Thanksgiving damage control: when to actually serve the meal if you want to sleep that night, why skipping breakfast backfires, and a rapid fire list of "do not be that person" moves at dinner. From showing up empty handed and hovering in the kitchen to serving lukewarm sides and running out of wine, this episode gives you a cheat sheet for keeping the food hot, the vibes warm, and the group text calm.********Listen to Up+Adam with Adam Montiel:Official Website: adammontiel.comApple Podcasts: Up+Adam on Apple PodcastsSpotify: Up+Adam on SpotifyiHeartRadio: Up+Adam on iHeartRadioYouTube Music: Up+Adam on YouTube Music********CHECK OUT OUR WOODS HUMANE PET OF THE WEEK!********ADAM’S TEDX VIDEO IS HERE!********FOLLOW ADAM ON INSTAGRAM*********Sincere Thanks to the current supporters of Up + Adam.
