    Storytelling through Food, Film, and Fiction with Hugo Gamino, Claudia Restrepo, and Paola Mendoza
    Sep 18 2024
    This is a jam packed episode with inspiring storytellers through food, film, and fiction. We start with a panel chat with Hugo Gamino and Claudia Restrepo. Hugo is a chef and writer dedicated to sharing the untold stories behind the recipes that have shaped his life and career. His writing is fostering understanding, and bringing to life an empathetic viewpoint of diversity while challenging toxic masculinity. Claudia is an LA-based writer, director, and actor who is passionate about minority and queer representation, both in front and behind the camera. She recently executive produced and starred in the film “Peak Season” a refreshing romantic comedy that’s free from the typical tropes of its genre. See it now on Prime. Next up, we have Paola Mendoza, who you may know as the artist director and co-founder of the 2017 Women’s March. She’s directed many projects, including the beautiful film “Entre Nos”, the semi-autobiographical story based on Paola’s mother’s arrival to the US from Colombia. Paola joins us to speak about her latest book, SOLIS, which she co-wrote with Abby Sher and is a companion to their first book, Sanctuary. Especially in light of candidate Trump's vile depiction of immigration during the debate, we need works of art like SOLIS to remind us that the dystopian world in the story is not too far off where we can be headed if he is reelected. Tamarindo is a lighthearted show hosted by Brenda Gonzalez and Delsy Sandoval talking about politics, culture, and self-development. We’re here to uplift our community through powerful conversations with changemakers, creatives, and healers. Join us as we delve into discussions on race, gender, representation, and life!
