    Interviewing Andrea Ramirez IG: @Mextica

    Andrea is a community taught artist based in Los Angeles. In this interview we talk about her journey of becoming an artist. We talk about how she created her artist name. She explains some of the history, traditions, and culture behind her art. We talk about “the rules” of becoming an artist. How sometimes we self sabotage and need to figure out how to unlock those barriers for ourselves. Andrea teaches yoga so we also get into the benefits and some history of yoga and the exploitation of it.  She explains the difference between actual fears and fears we create for ourselves and how recognizing those differences has overall benefited her career as an artist and a person.

    Garth is a Los Angeles based dj, radio personality and overall a music lover amongst many of his other roles. Garth is well known for his previous music supervisor/dj role at KCRW.

I ask him questions about artists that have changed his mind. Why he left KCRW. What he thinks about Drake and Anderson .Paak. How he finds music. How he feels about the reputation of djs. What he's currently listening to and a good rant that most people can agree on.

  • Mangos in LA w/ Yesika Salgado

    Send us Fan Mail

    Interviewing Yesika Salgado IG: @yesikastarr

    Yesika is a Los Angeles based Salvadoran poet and author of Corazón, Tesoro and Hermosa. In this interview we talk about a little of everything. We talk about gentrification in both of our hometowns, being diagnosed with bipolar II as a teenager, being fetishized by men online, the latest Love is Blind Gossip and the symbolism behind those 27 floors of graffiti. 

    Additionally, (since this is a 2hr episode lol) we talk about people buying into trends and hype when you’re not from LA. She tells me about people placing her in a box and them wanting her to be what they perceived her to be when they first met her. We talk about big opportunities she’s turned down because they didn’t align with who she is. Yesika shouts out a lot of her loved ones and some of her favorite places to eat. We even get into discussing male podcasters and a common experience that women relate to, being guests on some of these shows.

Some days I like interviewing creatives, entrepreneurs, community oriented people, and people with inspiring stories. Other days I like going on funny rants or having  serious or not serious…
