The world of music with a San Diego slant: The SoundDiego Podcast brings the NBC 7 TV show and music platform to online life with an exploration of the community local musicians and music fans — and touring acts headed San Diego’s way — live and breathe in, from the moment they order their breakfast burrito to the time they call it a night at the Casbah. Host Dustin Lothspeich is a San Diego Music Award winner and longtime chronicler of the weird and unforgettable scene and will plug you in or show you where there’s an outlet.
Sonny Sandoval, frontman for hometown hard-rock heroes P.O.D., and his bandmates have been repping Southtown since 1992. They're a multi-platinum band, have received three Grammy nominations and, over the last three decades, have helped put San Diego on the map musically. The group's latest album, "Circles," is out everywhere — visit payableondeath.com for news, music, videos and tour dates.

Episode 4 Show Notes:
- Sonny's go-to taco shop when he gets back from tour? Lolita's on Bonita Road! Never been? Drop everything, find the location nearest you (there's seven) and go!
- When asked about possibly writing a P.O.D. theme song for In-n-Out, Sonny mentioned his friendship with the burger chain's owner, Lynsi Snyder. Here's an interesting Business Insider article that drops all sorts of facts and tidbits about Snyder, her storied family and the history of the famed restaurant.
- If you love "Little Nicky" as much as Sonny and I do, here's actual video footage of P.O.D., Deftones and Incubus playing Steve Miller's "The Joker" on MTV with Adam Sandler!
- Sonny's first-ever concert: The Police, Oingo Boingo and Madness, which took place Sept. 5, 1983, at SDSU's Aztec Bowl. Here's a little more info about the show.
- Our Spotlight artist of the week is Ten Bulls, and their song "Vicarion" is all sorts of goodness. Listen to more of their music here and check 'em out at Soda Bar on March 21, with Nite Lapse, OrchidxMantis and DJ Rees Withrow in support. Get tickets here.
