About our podcast

Welcome to HB Unplugged, this podcast show is only as good as the people that follow us!

The story behind our podcast

Mel Craig started podcasting back in 2003 and hosted an amazing podcast show in the car care industry that went almost 10 years long and reached 32 different countries. Podcasting is entertaining, motivating, and educational, all in one show.

Mel searched all over HB to find the perfect co-host of HB Unplugged, and it didn’t take long to realize there was only one clear choice with Don Ramsey. Don is Mr. Huntington Beach, and I don’t think there is anyone that Don doesn’t know, or anyone that doesn’t know Don.

Both Don and Mel are successful business owners here in HB, and both have given back to the Huntington Beach community in more ways that can be counted. HB Unplugged is just one more thing they can do to help make a difference and continue to give back to the community that has been so good to them.
