Episode Description

Join Mark and Joleen on *Happening in Upland* for a grounded, slightly sharp-edged look at the Inland Empire news that actually impacts your commute and your community. In this March 23, 2026 episode, we celebrate Upland High School's prestigious California Distinguished School award while bracing for a record-breaking 90-degree spring heatwave and the ongoing $13.2 million Foothill Boulevard construction saga. We provide an insider's preview of the State of the City address at Kahramana Restaurant, break down the latest local crime reports involving high-speed chases and mail theft, and analyze why Upland's median home price has hit a staggering $826,500. Whether you're looking for the best boba at Sunright Tea Studio, tracking Highlander varsity sports, or planning a weekend at the Wistaria Festival and Ace's Corner Lounge, we offer the essential, balanced guide to navigating life in the city we love almost as much as we hate the traffic on Euclid.
