Belly up to our Copa Bar studio table at Urban Mo’s with drinks in hand, Aaron & Ophelia recapped some pretty eventful weeks that included volunteering, puppies, antenna installations, Titanic dances and ingrown hairs. Then we talked about Coachella & what we’re looking forward to this concert season, healthy living, the return of They Said, plans to name the first street after Harvey Milk here in San Diego, Eric Himan performing at Bourbon Street, aNoteToMyKid.com and the big plans underway for Urban Mo’s 20th Anniversary celebration that included a quick HSSS.tv appearance from the man himself, Mr. Chris Shaw!

They’re baaaaack! And a little diff’rent. They Said returned to the fabulous Brass Rail studio for their brand of talk – where opinions matter & sexual orientation does not. Joining Alejandra, Ian, Amber & guest moderator Ophelia is the new straight guy on panel, Dustin Santillan, who hit the ground running without missing a beat. After recapping the month-long hiatus & Easter-Passover weekend debauchery, they dove in to headlines & topics including: Whitney Houston’s autopsy findings, gay ‘unfriendly’ travel destinations, the scandal surrounding the gay couple arrested aboard the Altantis Cruise docked in Dominica, Dinah Shore & White Party weekend, Miss Gay Mexico International competition, Hudson Taylor appearing at Martinis Above Fourth and the countdown to Dining Out For Life. The crew is glad to be back. Keep watching for some fun new segments & guest panelists in the weeks ahead. Read More
Aaron & Ophelia wasted no time getting their gab on at Urban Mo’s this week. Producer Jay, Production Assistant Nicolas & La Lee were serving fierce behind-the-scenes realness, taking photos, prompting cues & trying desperately to keep Ophelia in check…but failing by most standards. We talked White Party weekend, Easter Sunday and Easter baskets for Family Matters, Car2Bar (Car2Go), the Lakeside Rodeo, eventful trips to Costco, favorite brands of toilet paper, San Diego Flag Football VIP Tent shenanigans and soooo much more. Big shout out to Eddie Rey & Rick Cervantes of the Mo’s family who stuck around to watch the HSSS.tv madness, in-person. Read More
After a whirlwind week of event after event, Aaron & Ophelia hit the Copa Bar studio at Urban Mo’s for our weekly recap of news & views with a little booze. Kicking it off, we welcomed a new HSSS.tv team member, Producer Jay, who’s taking over for Producer Kurt on Thursdays (with assistance from our favorite production helper Intern Nicolas.) In true Ophelia fashion, she railed about a couple of overpriced businesses in the bubble before moving on to talk about her weight – post-smoking – exercise, how food tastes and the upcoming end of Lent…remember, she gave up sobriety, so she’s ready for a green tea cleanse. Then, we talked about recurring dreams and had some help from La Lee deciphering their meaning. Other big topics on tap were judging people, labels and why we insist on them to describe or demean people, big political news re: Nathan Fletcher’s exit from the Republican party and the San Diego Mayoral Forum at The Center and last but certainly not least, Urban Mo’s upcoming 20th Anniversary Extravaganza Eleganza. Sit back, turn up the volume & enjoy! Read More
