Zach Brooks is the General Manager of Smorgasburg LA, the largest weekly food market in L.A., with more than 10,000 folks attending the huge, historic space each Sunday at the Row DTLA. From phenomenon to institution, Smorgasburg LA has jump-started business for legendary L.A. names like Tacos 1986, Wanderlust Creamery, Evil Cooks, and Broad Street Oyster Company. With a bicoastal culinary legacy going back to his days as the steward of NY's Midtown Lunch, Zach traces both his origin and the origin of L.A.'s greatest Food Festival, and discusses the immense challenge of staying consistent while continuing to evolve.
Yesika Salgado is the L.A. poet whose words have become a voice for a generation of Angelenos finding beauty in a raw examination of Los Angeles. Born and raised in L.A. to Salvadoran parents, Yesika helped create Chingona Fire, the groundbreaking Latina feminist poetry collective that carved out space for women of color to tell their stories loudly and unapologetically. Yesika discusses identity, Boyle Heights, love, loss, body positivity, and why Los Angeles remains at the center of her work. From her bestselling poetry collections Corazón, Tesoro, and Hermosa, to her rise from open mic nights to becoming one of the most recognizable contemporary Latina poets in America, Yesika has always written with honesty, vulnerability, and defiance.
Irene Diaz is a singer-songwriter who has captivated L.A. and beyond with her powerful voice, which conveys the depth and soul of her background in East Los Angeles. A proud Chicana whose captivating vocals and soulful melodies have garnered critical acclaim, she is truly one of my favorite artists working today. From her debut album I Love You Madly to her appearance on Tiny Desk, she's helped usher in the modern 'Souldies' sound. Make sure you check out Anything for You and The Fool, and catch her on tour this summer at the Fools Only Summer Tour.
Paul "P-Rod" Rodriguez is one of the most acclaimed skaters of all-time - and one of the most important. An L.A. native, P-Rod was one of the first high-profile skaters of Mexican descent, opening the doors for a generation of skaters that 'looked like' him. He is also the namesake of the Nike SB P-Rod shoes, helping him become one of the few Nike athletes ever with over ten iterations of his signature shoe. We trace Paul's love for L.A. and the origin story behind one of the biggest and best names in the sport's history.

We get into Tom's favorite history, culture, and spots to eat in Los Angeles. . .and how the heck his team at 404 is able to keep cranking out such great content.

Big Boy IS the voice of Los Angeles. From radio to streaming to podcasts to video, Big Boy’s impact on L.A. over the last four decades has been unparalleled. Hear how Big went from being homeless to being a bodyguard for The Pharcyde to creating a legacy on Los Angeles airwaves that we may never see again in the city. He also discusses how an epiphany when he was 500 pounds led to lifestyle changes and lessons he still lives by today. Simply put, this is one of my favorite interviews ever.
Kenneth Pattengale and Joey Ryan of the Milk Carton Kids are a Grammy-nominated folk duo hailing from Eagle Rock. Somewhere in between Simon & Garfunkel and The Smothers Brothers, their sound is described as "bittersweet & beautiful," with a side of wry, humorous banter that makes them both accessible and beloved. We discuss their origin story, the band's evolution, and the state of folk music in L.A. and beyond.
