[Excerpt from the episode]: "It’s in the work right now but it’s something I want to talk about. I’m (Cham Phan) from Sioux falls and there’s a couple things that I want to plug. One is the One Sioux Falls Fund that helps everybody in Sioux Falls that needs help, assistance-wise. Coming up here, if you support the arts, arts is a huge thing for me and I’m working with the Sioux Falls Arts Council director right now to figure out how Kaizen could help their goal of creating a fund for artists. We’re trying to create a fund for artists right now and the wheel is moving. So hopefully by the time this is out, there will be an artists fund from the Sioux Falls Art Council for artists but in the meantime, you can visit the Sioux Falls Art Council website and they set it up so you can support these artists by directly buying stuff from them. That’s what I recommend because at the end of the day, I got into commercial work and making my way of life starting with art. It always will be art for me. So at the end of the day, I urge anyone that can if you're not being completely destroyed by this economically, please support artists. Solely based on the fact that we've been in this struggle before the virus. This is daily life for us. If you think this is hard now, imagine doing this daily with the goal of creating to make people happy. I feel like that’s what all artists are. They want to put their work out there and express things to build connections and have a shared human experience. That’s not always the most profitable way of life so if you can, please support your artists."

[Excerpt from the episode]: "Now, we’re doing more of a documentary style and PSA type of stuff which is more emotional appeal anyways. That’s the problem solving part of what we do. Like how do we make this message more impactful without being tasteless."

My next guest is an experienced sushi chef with over 15 years of training under many Japanese experts. As a young infant, Anh Nguyen and his family left Vietnam and traveled to America by boat in the early 1980s. Today, Anh is the owner of Denver Poke Company and in this episode, I join him in his kitchen while he completes his morning prep before opening his restaurant for the day.

During our conversation, Anh speaks about his upbringing, training under Japanese executive chefs, how he discovered poke, and his vision of creating a sustainable future that protects the food we eat.

Denver Poke Company is located on 1550 Platte St Suite C, in Denver Colorado.
