    Play Episode Listen Later Aug 17, 2017 35:06


    Gentrification has been sweeping the Bay Area for years now, so does that mean that local culture is getting completely choked out?  On this episode we talk to three Ambassadors for total originality and Bay pride: Evan Kidera, McKenzy Germain, and Martin Luther McCoy. Evan Kidera, founder of crazy popular Filipino-Mexican fusion food truck Señor Sisig, dishes the details of his delicious vision to continue his family’s heritage through food. McKenzy Germain - otherwise known as The Pragmatic Disruptor - talks about the challenges of holding on to local community amidst rising rents. And our Ambassador of funk, Martin Luther McCoy, shows us his vision for music as a form of medicine. In the midst of today’s political insanity, we look to Ambassadors like these to continue leading the way towards a more hopeful vision for the future. Listen in, get inspired, make your mark and #DoMoreGood!
