Good afternoon to everyone running on caffeine or the vague hope of weekend plans. Saturday’s creeping up, and so is your last shot to catch Felipe Esparza live at Pechanga Arena for free. If you like your comedy bilingual, blunt, and slightly chaotic (in the best way), this one’s for you. Hit that enter to win button before it disappears – no April Fools. Just guestlist.

LOCALS ONLY

• Swirl’s hitting the pavement this Friday for a group skate. All wheels, all skills, all welcome. Meet the crew that keeps SD rolling. RSVP for the drop pin and come skate with the community that actually makes sidewalks look fun.

• Not your average summer job – unless your average includes boats, sunshine, and talking dock talk with cool humans. Seaforth’s hiring a crew who’d rather be on the water than behind a desk. No experience required.
