  • Choosing Love with Director Aitch Alberto

    On this episode of Tamarindo, we kick off Latino and Latine Heritage Month with Miami-raised writer and director Aitch Alberto. Her new film “Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe”is out now. Among her many accolades, Aitch was featured on Variety’s 10 Directors to Watch for 2022 and Indiewire’s 22 Rising Female Filmmakers to Watch in 2022. She is a Sundance Episodic Lab fellow.


    We chat about the beautiful coming-of-age film and the universal themes it explores. We discuss the common struggles of adolescence like self-discovery, identity, and acceptance, to explorations of masculinity through a Latino/Latine lens. As the writers' and actors guild strikes continue, supporting Latino and Latine films is more important than ever. We encourage everyone to watch this film and uplift everyone involved. 


    We also reflect on our matracas of the summer after a long break giving a special shoutout to Raizado, an ideas and culture festival produced by The Latinx House with Monica Ramirez and Olga Segura at the helm. The four day event featured Latinx actors and cultural and social change makers, including politicians, philanthropists, business owners, and community advocates and closed with an open community day at a local park.

      • Re-play: Carmen Rita Wong on Family Secrets

        On this re-play of Tamarindo, we speak to Carmen Rita Wong about her memoir, “Why Didn’t You Tell Me?”. She is a former CNBC television host and the founder and CEO of Malecon Productions, LLC, where she develops female-focused media and entertainment. Her memoir is now available on paperback and it’s a fantastic read!

        Through our conversation that centers around her memoir, we talk about themes present in many of our family stories, from racism to cultural erasure and the role of family secrets. Carmen talks about how often our adult lives are spent healing, breaking cycles, and reconnecting with ourselves as a result of toxic family upbringings.

        We also take a moment to acknowledge and denounce the vile anti-black and anti-indigenous audio leak from L.A city council members and speak to what we hope this moment can bring in the form of activism and healing.

We’re currently accepting interest forms, due August 31, 2023. Get all the details here: https://www.tamarindopodcast.com/encuentro


          Writing when no one is telling our stories is a form of activism and bearing witness to our experiences. On this episode of Tamarindo, we talk to icon and writer, Dr. Ana Castillo, about why she writes, the evolution of her identity, and her latest book of poems, “My Book of the Dead” which is now available. 


          We also discuss what we hope for the future of our community, while we also pay homage to Latinx writers we lost this last year including Rudy Anaya who wrote the celebrated “Bless Me, Ultima” and Miguel Algarín, co-founder of the Nuyorican Poets Café. 


          Dr.Ana Castillo is a celebrated author of poetry, fiction, nonfiction, and drama. Among her award-winning books are ”So Far from God,” “The Mixquiahuala Letters,” and “Massacre of the Dreamers: Essays on Xicanisma.” Born and raised in Chicago, Castillo now resides in southern New Mexico.

        • Re-play: Discovering Your Energy Chupacabras

          This week, we are revisiting our Tamarindo favorite! This first aired fall 2019, so you’ll hear us talk about the Democratic debates...ah...remember when the only pandemic we had to worry about was Tr*mp?

          We learn why stress is not ALL bad but why it’s also more harmful than we think. We recognize that many of the stressors BIPOC folks face, like financial stress or discrimination, are not ones we can easily change without policy changes. That said, there are a few things we can do to start changing our relationship with stress like changing our mindset and discovering our #energychupacabras and what to do about them. We include a technique used by the stress management company that Ana Sheila co-founded, @Baskandbeing.  


          Speaking of stress, I want to invite you to a fantastic retreat to Puebla Mexico! This is happening February 15 - 19, 2024 and I am co-hosting this with Delsy Sandoval, the creator of the Ocu-pasion podcast.

        • Re-Play: Whose Economy? OUR Economy

          This week on the pod, we're revisiting our talk with Dr. Manuel Pastor about how we can build a better economy centered on people, equity, and mutuality.

          Dr. Pastor talks to us about his book, “Solidarity Economics:Why Mutuality and Movements Matter” which he co-authored with Dr. Chris Benner. Here is what Angela Glover Blackwell, Founder of PolicyLink, has to say about this book.

          “In this powerful blueprint for an equitable future, Manuel Pastor and Chris Benner provide a bold critique of conventional wisdom about who owns the economy.

          They challenge us to radically imagine how we can design OUR economy to be fully inclusive and guided by the principles of mutuality and solidarity, ensuring that we put people first.”

          Dr. Pastor ‘s research generally focuses on issues of the economic, environmental and social conditions facing low-income urban communities – and the social movements seeking to change those realities. You can learn about him and about Solidarity Economics here: https://solidarityeconomics.org/

        • Comedian Sasha Merci on Reconnection and Recalibration

          On this episode of Tamarindo, we are joined by Dominican comedian, actress, and writer Sasha Merci. You can catch her on Mitú podcast Three G’s in a Pod, in the movie Righteous Thieves, and if you’re in LA at a comedy venue near you. 


          We talk about what it's like living somewhere where you don't have representation aka being Dominican in LA, building community, and the perils of social media. It's a conversation about recalibration, reconnection with self, and redefining what success and happiness look like for you when you truly start to listen to yourself.
