Outside Lands San Francisco

Nicole and Rebekah return for another Short Stack! They catch up on life and the podcast, dig into a fun archives project Nicole’s been working on (and the insights it’s turned up), and talk about candy historians and martinis along the way.

There are some replicas of famous French buildings on the West side. Nicole & Arnold looked at the Koshland House on Washington Street, modeled on Le Petit Trianon, in this classic episode of Outside Lands which originally aired in 2023.

Nicole & Arnold strolled down Ocean Avenue for a Beep's Burger and to discover the history of 1051 Ocean Avenue, in this classic episode of Outside Lands that originally aired in 2023.

Drew and Nicole share the wild international love story of Herbert and Maria von Ridelstein, who ran the Art and Style Studio from her home on 26th Avenue in the 1950s. Learn more about this pair who did so much to bring art to the masses, and how they fit into our larger project researching the history of San Francisco art schools.

Since 1983, LEAP has hosted the Sandcastle Classic at Ocean Beach. Nicole chats with Jackie and Rafaella of Youth Arts Exchange who organize this annual epic event, and shares the story of James J. Taylor, sand sculpture artist, who dazzled beachgoers with his work in 1909.
