Ok, we’re back from Mazatlan, Mexico — which is apparently the shrimp capital of the world.

It was great, but glad to be back with you all in L.A.!

I’ll be honest, I figured the Gulf Coast was the shrimp capital of the world.

I have an idea 🧠🧠

Mobile Mayor Race 2025.

There have already been some panel discussions and Q&A sessions, and I'm sure there will be more.

I would like to get recordings or transcripts from those, and I'll help put together a resource or tool that will make it easier for folks to learn what candidates are about.

Feel free to reply with content and recordings of mayor panels and forums.

Thanks!

Ok, onto The Rundown…

🚢 Summer Fun

Have you guys been on one of those dolphin cruises?

It’s funny, because I’ve seen the boat when heading into Orange Beach, but we still haven’t done it.

Even though we see dolphins a good bit, we feel like it would be fun to hang out with a random group and go dolphin hunting!
