Show Notes

There’s no doubt — living in San Diego can get expensive. But the good news is that there are so many things to do and enjoy for free. The San Diego Union-Tribune's community guides team shares their bucket list of free events and activities across the region for 2025.

Plus, students, teachers and parents at Chula Vista High are worried about cuts to the school's experimental eight-period schedule. KPBS reporter Kori Suzuki looks at how the schedule cuts could impact the school's renowned arts program.

And finally, film lovers across San Diego are mourning the loss of Landmark Theatres’ Hillcrest Cinemas, which closed its doors this past Sunday. KPBS Cinema Junkie Beth Accomando reflects on the closure and introduces listeners to the group Popcorn Reef, which puts on alternate film programming.
