Landinotto era il capo canottiere. Soleva soleggiare nel castello di madama, la vecchia e ordinaria disciplinata e sciarmosa cara ai destri filibustieri incapaci di notar la sollazzata e inesistente virtù oltre la siepe di orpelli e cappelli all'ingiù, a copri gli occhi come a nascondere sguardi di pampaloni. Ebbene egli era lui e nessun altro giungeva a mostrar potena e manovalanza, con il remo in mano Landinotto scuoteva e ramazzava in acque viscide e sorcilucide. Un bel giorno la madama nel vederlo sovrappensiero gli fece un BUUUH! ed egli sbrindellò, come a dire maramao. Ma questo non bastò e allora un altro remo venne imbracciato, Landinotto lo arrotò e disse noi qua e noi là, allora la madama si urtò e se ne andò. Ma che sfaccimm e cucuzzaria vai facendo! Disse Landinotto.... allora sei coe una borlotta, ti cuocio con cipolla e aggiungo anche il pepe... pe pe pe pe pe rona mia".La madama sorrise e Landinotto si allecriò, la puzza di zozzimma si alleggerì e i due vissero un po' felici, ma estremamente contenti. Questa è la storia e così termina, chi va la e chi sta qua può far solo trallallà. Cià.

Benritrivata/o, per questa puntata di Pasqua è d'obbligo raccontare un mito che parli della simbologia dell'uovo. Simbolo di vita, ma soprattutto di rigenerazione e rinascita, esso è presente in molte culture e in India rappresenta una sorta di nucleo centrale da cui viene emanato l'intero universo. Spesso conosciuto come Brhamanda o Hiranyagharba, esso viene citato nel Rigveda, rappresenta, calato nella dimensione umana, quel nucleo centrale presente in ognuna/o di noi in grado di dar vita e manifestare nuovi universi. Al termine della puntata ti propongo una speciale meditazione per lasciar andare tutto ciò che non ti rappresenta più e far così spazio al nuovo, senza spazio infatti non ci può essere una vera rinascita. Di seguito ti lascio una piccola bibliografia a cui mi sono ispirata per i contenuti dell'episodio: - The Archive for research in archetypal symbolism, Il libro dei simboli, Taschen edizioni - Diego Manzi, Incanto, Le Lettere - Sally Kempton, Il risveglio della Shakti, Verdechiaro edizioni

Tutto nel Mondo è Burla Stasera all'Opera - Antonietta Stella Sovrumano Incanto

Una storia è un incanto: su questo non ci piove. Ma mica è facile incantare i lettori! I lettori sono come i serpenti e lo scrittore è come il pifferaio magico? Su questo concetto ragiona Flavia Ganzenua, scrittrice e editor della scuola di scrittura Genius

TESTO DELL'ARTICOLO ➜ www.bastabugie.it/it/articoli.php?id=7243L'ULTIMO CARTONE DISNEY E' UN FLOP CLAMOROSOLa Disney ci ricasca e, fedele alle promesse dei mesi scorsi - ovvero di avere sempre più personaggi arcobaleno, fino a voler arrivare addirittura al 50% dei protagonisti Lgbt - è tornata alla carica con un altro film d'animazione a tinte gender. Anche l'ultima opera uscita in questi giorni al cinema, "Strange World", è infatti caratterizzato dalla narrazione Lgbt.La pellicola, infatti, include la prima storia d'amore apertamente gay tra degli adolescenti e rappresenta una sottotrama all'intero film. Una notizia, questa, che già era stata resa nota lo scorso giugno. Ciò che però desta subito e più di altre cose attenzione è questa imperterrita ostinazione, proprio della Disney, di promuovere a più non posso l'agenda Lgbtqi+ nei propri prodotti. Ormai, purtroppo, ne siamo abituati: film, cartoni animati, serie tv, sfilate nei parchi divertimento, gadget. Tutto prende i colori arcobaleno in modo ideologico. E tutto ciò dovrebbe - anzi deve! - spaventare e indignare famiglie e genitori, che non devono abbassare la guarda difronte a un indottrinamento così vasto e capillare.Ciò che, dall'altro lato, invece, consola - ed è l'altro aspetto del film che sta facendo davvero notizia - è il risultato di questa ennesima propaganda gender.La strategia arcobaleno, infatti, per l'ennesima volta - e diciamo noi fortunatamente - non paga affatto! Dopo il clamoroso flop di "Lightyear - la vera storia di Buzz", che portò sugli schermi dei più piccoli il primo bacio omosessuale (in particolare tra due donne) nella storia della Disney, ora l'altro fallimento sembra arrivare proprio da "Strange World", che a fronte di un budget di produzione di circa 180 milioni di dollari, ne ha incassati solamente 4 in questo primo periodo di distribuzione. Per fare un paragone: un anno fa, quando nello stesso periodo uscì "Incanto", quest'ultimo guadagnò ben 42 milioni all'esordio. Ma non finisce qui, perché "Strange World" ha anche fatto registrare il peggior punteggio di sempre su CinemaScore per un Classico Disney. Il film ha infatti ricevuto una "B" da CinemaScore dopo la sua uscita nelle sale nord-americane, il voto più basso di sempre per un cartone animato targato Disney. Chiaro indicatore che il film non è stato affatto gradito dal pubblico.Dicevamo: fortunatamente sta facendo flop. Fortunatamente? Beh, in realtà più che fortuna o caso possiamo dire che sia tutto merito di genitori e famiglie. Tanto in Italia quanto all'estero le famiglie sembrano evidentemente stufe di prestare il fianco alla propaganda gender e esporre i loro figli a questo martellamento mediatico.Purtroppo, però - e anche qui il caso c'entra ben poco - proprio questo bombardamento, come dicevamo, deve far riflettere e non far mai abbassare la guardia. E' vero, infatti, che non è la prima volta che un film di questo tipo fa flop, ma è vero anche che la Disney - dopo l'annuncio dei suoi dirigenti di voler promuovere l'agenda Lgbtqi+ - non si è più fermata in tale direzione. Dunque l'appello è sempre quello - e non lo ripeteremo mai abbastanza - di stare con gli occhi aperti sempre, per difendere l'educazione e la crescita (e il divertimento!) dei nostri figli e non prestare mai il fianco a questa nuova, ma ormai già rodata, industria dell'intrattenimento Lgbt.

«Questo ci tocca: liberare nell'aria il verso, trovare / la sua forma sonora. Incanto fonico si chiama».Sono Francesca Rodesino, dottoranda in italianistica all'Università di Zurigo, e oggi vi parlo di «L'incanto fonico» di Mariangela Gualtieri.«L'incanto fonico» è il titolo del libro ibrido, in bilico tra la poesia e l'aforisma, che Mariangela Gualtieri ha pubblicato quest'anno per Einaudi, quale atto d'amore verso «l'arte di dire la poesia», come recita il sottotitolo dell'opera.Mariangela Gualtieri è una poeta, scrittrice e drammaturga nata a Cesena nel 1951, ed è una delle voci più luminose della scena contemporanea. Negli anni Ottanta, dopo un percorso teatrale che l'ha portata a incontrare maestri del calibro di Carmelo Bene, fonda il Teatro Valdoca insieme a Cesare Ronconi. Il legame con il teatro, d'altronde, è fondamentale per capire il fare poetico di Gualtieri, così radicato nell'esigenza di abitare con il pubblico uno stesso spazio, e di fare incontrare alla poesia la voce umana.L'ultimo libro di Mariangela Gualtieri, dal titolo «L'incanto fonico», restituisce con forza tutte queste necessità, perché racconta la conoscenza che Gualtieri ha maturato lungo i suoi quarant'anni d'esperienza nel dire la poesia in pubblico. E lo fa trasformando questa stessa esperienza in poesia, o meglio «poesia saggistica» come la chiama l'autrice stessa, ma dove le parole sono centellinate ed essenziali, evocando la misura, e talvolta anche il tono, della preghiera.Le dodici sezioni che suddividono «Incanto fonico» tracciano un percorso all'interno dei meccanismi segreti di quest'arte orale, invocando, per esempio, l'importanza della «voce», della «memoria», del «respiro», del «silenzio», dell'«attenzione», ma anche di quella che l'autrice chiama «tecnologia sacra», e cioè l'insieme di «microfono, fili, casse acustiche da cui fuorisce la voce». Gualtieri ci mostra così che il «dire la poesia» è una pratica che coinvolge l'intera persona, ma anche un accadimento relazionale, che può avvenire solamente perché c'è un pubblico che ascolta.La poesia di Gualtieri si relaziona alle altre e agli altri anche in un secondo senso. Infatti, «L'incanto fonico» è un'opera piena di voci altrui, fin dal titolo, che è un omaggio ad Amelia Rosselli, ma potremo riconoscere anche le voci di Dante, di Cristina Campo, di Paul Celan, insieme ad altre, che Gualtieri elenca nell'ultima pagina del suo libro, come a ringraziarle per averla abitata così intensamente.Quindi, anche se Gualtieri sta alla larga da ogni pretesa d'insegnamento, chi legge il suo libro troverà, oltre che una straordinaria immersione in un «bagno sonoro», anche un prezioso manuale sul dire la poesia, perché, come ricorda l'autrice:«Poesia è veritiera. Chiede voce veritiera. / Nuda voce non impalcata non accessoriata non /potenziata. Nuda voce più nuda».Credo che «L'incanto fonico» sia un libro davvero prezioso perché insegna l'importanza della vita sonora delle parole, ma pure che dire la poesia è sempre dirla a qualcuno.

And, and as part of that project, we're exploring the Latinx experience in, in this time. And so what, what we're doing in this conversation is kind of fleshing out, like, what does it mean to have an intercultural conversation in with the primary lens of Latinx culture?Rebecca Wheeler Walston:Specializing in advising non-profits and small businesses.

And this week, uh, you're going to listen in on a conversation between myself, uh, Rebecca Wheeler Walston, and TJ Poon. We're all part of a project we've been working on together for over a year now. And, and as part of that project, we're exploring the Latinx experience in, in this time. And so what, what we're doing in this conversation is kind of fleshing out, like, what does it mean to have an intercultural conversation in with the primary lens of Latinx culture?Rebecca (00:52):Right? It it reminds me what that, um, the, the, the, uh, Latinx woman who we saw this weekend. I don't know, I'm not sure I remember where she's from particularly, but how she was talking about how, like in Spanish, the, the wording is different. Therefore, what I interpret or what I metabolized right, is different. That was brilliant.Danielle (01:18):Mm-hmm. . Okay. I love what you just said, Rebecca. And then tj, I'd like you to hear your thoughts on this, but part of what I think I'm hoping for in saying this is a space for you to even come in and, and say, like, in the African H and American experience, here's where I resonate. Mm. But here's where I don't resonate if you don't resonate. So I, I think this wasn't outright said in the African American experience about the psychological lens, but I do think it was implied and it was there. And so I think this is a chance for us to collaborate and hopefully pull people together despite differences. So that's something I'm wondering about, but I I didn't wanna just throw that out there in the moment.Rebecca (02:11):What do you mean by a psychological lens?Danielle (02:14):Because in the Western European format, pretty much the only person of color I read, and the only person of color I read from a psychology standpoint was re men. Mm-hmm. , every single other person in literature was white, white female, white male philosophers, European philosophers here and there. Someone Spanish, but white. And what I'm saying is that European Americans don't own healing practices. And oftentimes what I've learned in the space of a psychological lens, I've found it in my community that has a far longer history and with different language. And, and so even when we talk about like alignment, I mean, doesn't that sound like Dan Siegel to you? Doesn't that sound like Shar to you? Yeah. But they aren't citing as techs and South American indigenous peoples. And I, I have no doubt that that is likely found in African American communities as well. And so I, I wanted to give the participants, at least La Latinx participants and hopefully bridge some gaps here and have people know, like, I'm not just stepping into a healing practice that is made by European white men. This is a, this healing practice. Actually, European white men, like a lot of things took it and they reworked it in their culture, which fine, but we also own part of that history. We own part of the way we heal. This is not original to it.Rebecca (03:59):That's the part where I feel like, again, like throwing an accusation that such, such as white is, um, among other things, it is problematic because unless you've done the research to, in what you're telling me is that the very origin of something that you're, you're discussing actually came out of European culture and only outta European culture, then the statement is just outright inaccurate, right? Mm-hmm. . And in some ways, you are actually perpetuating supremacy by, by, by perpetuating the, the lie that the thing we're talking about is, is unique to, to people of European or white folk. Right. Or however. Um, and so stop doing that. Right? Right. But, and so, so yeah. So you're asking me what is the African American equivalent to alignment, toka testimonial, andDanielle (05:02):Like trust.Rebecca (05:03):Yeah. You're asking me that?Danielle (05:05):Yeah. Cuz I mean, I don't know. But even in watching high on the hog mm-hmm. , and they're in this, they go to this one church setting, right? I don't know if you remember it. And it's like, got just the pillars left. And it was a, a place where they imagine one of the first quote unquote, first established African churches were in the south, and they talked about they had like, images of people dancing in that space mm-hmm. . And I was imagining that when I wrote this, things like that came to me as perhaps examples of heart to heart listening. Although it didn't look like, let's be honest, when Mexicans are hard to heart listening, we don't sit down. Mm. You know, we're moving around, we're talking, and, and we don't wait for you to finish your sentence necessarily.Rebecca (06:00):Right? So the thing I could say about that, the thing I would say about Plactica, right? Um, twice now, in the past week, I have had an older black woman say to me, I, I came to lay my eyes on you. What they expressly said was to put an eye on you and they point to one eye, right? And it's this sense that I need, I need to see you with my own eyes in order to discern or listen to what is happening in, in the space, right? Mm-hmm. . Um, so I think that, that, that might be the sense of heart to heart listening, right? Like, there's something that happens where, Right. That, that's a part of the alignment is I can read with my eyes the, the space, right? And then this thing about testimonial, what comes to my mind is that the phraseology keeping it real, right?This idea that with there, like the story that is being told needs to be a true story. Mm-hmm. , we have lots of, you know, when you hear the snaps and all this, but the sense that something has resonated in my body with the sense of like, now what you just said is that that's the truth, right? Mm-hmm. and, and, and a problem. If that, if that's not what happens, right? To the point that is a compliment. Oh, he keeps it real. She keeps it real. He keeps it 100. Right? It's the basic sense that you're, you are telling, you're, you're saying the story that you're giving is the true word or trues version of what happened. Um, and probably for the last one, in terms of trust or confidence or inclusion, I, I, I would probably say, um, the, the sense when I be like, Oh, that's my girl and we're here. Right? That's, and again, with the eyes, it's something like these two things. If the first two things happen that leaves the door open for a sense of, there, there is a trust and a confidence in a sense that we are in alignment together. Right? Right. And, um, if one of those three things is not legit, then you are out. We are like, we not here. Mm-hmm. , Do you know what I'm saying? I, I mean that's very, uh, colloquial in the language, but I think the, the, the dynamic is true nonetheless.Right? What's the version? And so there is a sense even that my whole body has to be engaged in the process for me to feel this kind of alignment. I need to see it, touch it, taste it, hear it. Like all of my senses need to be engaged before I feel like I could say, Right? And if I, if I don't have that, I don't know. I don't know you. Right? Like, I d know you like that.Danielle (09:03):Mm-hmm. , tj, any thoughts or anything to add or comments? Not yet that I'm enjoying this conversation. I think one thing I wanted to add for Za, like trust is something that happened at my daughter's Za. Now my fam, they're not my family, but I'm calling them my family. They all came and c and Corte, it's their, um, their daughter and their, and their son-in-law came, the son-in-law's white. He's, and he's, he's joined the family. And, uh, they're always telling me like, Hey, he didn't say hi to so and so, can you help him out? You know? So he didn didn'tDidn't speak. So, uh, that's a big thing, right? To say hi to everybody. I'm always saying, Hey, did you say hi to them? He's like, I think I did like brother, like, you better go do it again. They don't feel like you really sent high. He's like, I waved. I'm like, No. They wanna like, no, thatNo. You gotta like shake your hand. And so they're giving, they're giving him hints, right? But they, they're keeping him. They're not, they're not, they're not pushing him out. And so at the point where the dancing was on and the dj, they requested a song and they're like, Sam, Sam, get out there and dance. And Sam was like, Okay. And it's this, it's this, basically it's this Mexican line dance. And he was right on it. He had the whole dance down and everybody cheered for him. They were like, You're in, you're in. And they were going nuts. And afterwards he was glowing. He was so happy. And it, it wasn't a sense of like, if he didn't do it right, he was gonna be ridiculed. It was just like, you're part of us, you know? Mm-hmm. . And so that's kinda what I think too about trust and inclusion, like the trust to share moments like that with someone, even in fun time times, you know? Mm-hmm. . Yeah. Does that make sense?Rebecca (11:03):It makes perfect sense.Danielle (11:05):Mm-hmm. , I wish you could see this guideline dance.Rebecca (11:08):It makes perfect sense.Danielle (11:11):And by the way, Mexicans do a lot of line dancing and that's,Rebecca (11:15):I mean, you know, black people know a little bit, just a little bit, just a little bit about my, not that much, just a little bit .Danielle (11:27):Okay. So that feels like good. Um, TJ, can you hit the next slide, please? Yep. Um,Rebecca (11:36):I love that word edited.Danielle (11:38):Mm-hmm. . So I think we can talk about, if you're open to this, and TJ you can feel free to hop in here at any moment. Um, what does it mean to edit or fragment a Latinx story? It means to, there's many Asian identities which are subsumed. The African narrative is often edited out or, or almost like tried to blend in. Um, indigenous narratives are also pulled apart and, and edited out within our collective story. And so therefore we hang onto, I think it feels like if we tell those stories as a community, we won't be able to keep up. We'll be too separate. We won't be able to keep up with a dominant culture that will be too far apart to keep up. That make sense?Rebecca (12:34):No, you, you have to give it to me one more time. What's your sense of the, the, the, like, you feel like you can't keep up.And I, I don't think you're being unclear. I think I can't hear you. So go, go ahead.Danielle (12:51):I think we'll be too divided and we're already divided out. We're already set apart as a community, especially in the United States. And it feels like something I've experienced is, if you further complicate my identity, if you ask me to further, Id like, if you ask me to further step into more marginalized, quote unquote marginalized identities, then not only will I be separated from what I need to survive, which feels like whiteness, I will also be further alienated in my community. Mm.Rebecca (13:28):So what, what's the part that you're, you're, I, I think I'm with you and I, and I feel like I can't hear, not cuz you're not being clear, but like that this is the part where the African American lens is really very, very strong. And so there's a part of me that's like, I, what? So, um, so, and I don't think it's, cuz you're not being clear, I think it's because when you're describing is a little bit foreign to, to the, to the African hyphen uh, um, hyphenated experience. So what, what are you saying? Are you, are you, what's the extra fragmented identity that you're saying you don't wanna step into? Like the, the, the, the thought of like Latin Latinx being a mix of like African and Asian and indigenous identity, it's thatDanielle (14:20):Mm-hmm. that there's no space for Latinx. It feels like there's no space for Latinx in dominant culture as it is.Rebecca (14:32):Right?Danielle (14:32):And if then you have to say, Well actually I'm Chinese and Mexican, now, I'm, now I'm not just stepping further away from whiteness, but I'm also stepping outta my community. Cause that's, that's a learned, unacceptable way to identify.Rebecca (14:51):So, so here's my, here's my question about that. Cause it in some ways, okay, so I say African American, right? And we are so severed from our African-ness, I don't, I don't have the invitation to be like, Oh, I'm Ghanaian and you're Nigerian. And, and even if I knew that, I don't have a sense of what that means. I, I don't, I don't carry in my body a sense of like, that means we can't be friends because Nigerian and Ghanaians have this kind of thing in their history or whatever. I don't have that we're, we are so severed from it that there isn't any real way for us to, to go back. And in some ways we don't. I mean, there's a little bit of it, but nobody really, nobody's really, really, really truly, uh, deconstructing the African American identity that far down to the point that it would actually fracture us.Um, so, so in on the one part, the part why I'm having a hard time hearing what you're saying is, is I'm, what I'm saying is that's far from my experience. Therefore it's far from my lens. Right? But also, here's the thing, I wonder, uh, in her book, Born on the Water, right, the author asserts that something happened in the, in the middle passage on the water of the Trans-Atlantic that actually forged a, a third a new people group that was neither African nor American, but somewhere in the middle. And that, and, and, and so by the time they, they step onto us shores it, it, like, she literally talks about what was many, when they entered the ship in terms of their tribes be like, is fused into one in this hyphenated existence. And by the time they get off the ship, it is, it is the creation of a new people group, which is, it's, it's mildly controversial, but not really.Cuz nobody, even though, even though there's a whole sort of back to Africa and I wanna do the 23 and me thing and find out like what tribe from Ghana I came from, it, it isn't really about that kind of fracturing. Right? And, and so there wasn't people, there's something about what she said that resonates with people enough that you didn't hear any real pushback on, on that ideology. So I'm wondering Right. If I'm wondering about that, I'm wondering about that felt experience and lived reality and if the invitation, even in the loudness experience is to not, not not fracture it that much, Right? Is there some invitation in the text and in the lived experience that is about, we we're not going back to Eden. Mm-hmm. We, we like, we are pressing forward to, to the city of God. And when we get there, your, you will be able to hold and there's absolute invitation from Jesus to hold Mexican American Right? In a way that would allow you to note the Asian ancestry and the African ancestry and whatever in the indigenous ancestry with all the honor and celebration it deserves, and not have that be a fracture.Danielle (18:23):Yeah. I don't think I'm seeing that as the fracture. I'm seeing the fracture coming when we don't acknowledge that yes, we're Mexican, but in Mexico there are 16 cast colors mm-hmm. . And a part of that has to do with how dark you are to how light you are to how your eyes look to how, how your nose looks. And, and I think we cannot forget that we are living into that cast system as a people group. And so I think part of the editing is we, we've edited that out. Like, oh yeah, we're all Mexican, but when you get into our familiesRebecca (19:12):It, it ain't that.It ain't that. No, there's a hierarchy.So is not in, in the going towards it. It's, it's the, the fracture is that being in America in the hyphenated existence right. Is there's perhaps an invitation to edit out some, some of the other parts of your culture. And I think that's true across the whole cohort. I think everybody feels that. I think I, I think it's, it's why even though they have con consistently asked us to get into interethnic conflict, it feels really hard to do it right because, uh, and not just conflict between like blacks and Latinos or Asians, whoever, but conflict like within our own culture. Cause black people got colorism too. It's bad.It's real bad.Danielle (20:10):Yeah. Tj, any thoughts or comments?TJ (20:14):Nope. I had a lot of thoughts while we're talking, but I feel like just moving along, it's good.No, I totally do. Yeah. I have lots of thoughts, but I don't Yeah. Helpful to say. Right.It's a good point. Yeah. I mean, I think there's a, the lot of like, um,If, if, uh, only claiming one identity is also your sort of like, ticket to solidarity or like what you build solidarity around, it is very hard to enter into those other more marginalized identities. I, I mean, I think about that for Asian Americans too, Like how even Asian American is like a term that was made up, but, but part of like, the real benefit of it was solidarity, you know, like becoming a group when this wasn't really a group. And so just there that there's, uh, there's a lot of beauty in that and also a lot of like real messed up step in that. And so like if you, if you are, if you have an identity around which there is some solidarity, like we can rally around, you know, this, um, in a place where we're already marginal, already marginalized. Mm. Yeah. I don't know what your motivation for further marginalizing yourself. Do you know what I mean? Cause like you Yeah. So I think that's complex.Danielle (21:55):Yeah. You said that really well, tj mm-hmm. .Rebecca (22:00):I I think it reads different too in, in different communities. Like, but African American, it is, is a term of respect. And it, and it's also a notation that you are an outsider cuz we don't call each other that mm-hmm. , you know what I mean? So, and, and to me, whenever I say like Asian American, I feel stupid. Like I feel like I'm, I'm entering into the conversation in a way that is unintelligent because I, I, I think it's a dishonor to, to slap that name when what I really wanna know is what country are you from and is it better for me to identify you as Japanese American or Chinese American or Taiwanese than it is for me to say Asian American. You know what I mean? Like, I, I just feel the awkwardness of how's this gonna read again, I think because I'm aware none of these are self named monikers. Mm-hmm. , they're all imposed, but, um, by whiteness. And so it always feels awkward.Danielle (23:09):And I mean the additional con conversation for Latinx, even Latinx, I hate that word, but even the additional conversation is how have people of all these various backgrounds had to rally together to fight western intervention in their cities, in their countries, you know? Mm-hmm. . So they have to rally around that. But even that gets confusing because with the infusion of like money and power from the United States or other outside interests, it even splits. It splits people even more. But I think when people get to the United States, they say stuff like, I'm Cuban, you know, or I'm Mexican. There's not, there's a way of surviving in that.Rebecca (23:56):Right. Plus what do you do with the cause like where I grew up, if you are Puerto Rican on the west coast, that made you Mexican, but if you're Puerto Rican on the east coast, you are black. Like end of story, end of conversation. And so even, even that is like Yeah. Like all, yeah. All the, all those lines, it is different.Danielle (24:26):Yeah. So we'll we can step into that, you know, hopefully a little bit more brief cuz we'll probably run out of time. ButTJ (24:35):Like, I walked with my friend when she was, she's Mexican American, but she's also white and she was like, you know, wrestling through how do I identify myself and when these are the categories, it's really hard to like, I don't know, it just that multifaceted identity thing. How do you talk about racialization as like a part of that, um, when the categories are oppressed and oppressor and you pull both of those in your identity. So I don't know, but those were just thinking about that.Danielle (25:13):I think when I hear you, I think back to what Derek McNeil said to me, that we live in a racialized society and addressing race will take us so far, but it's really our, and it has a limit, but it's really being in our cultures is where we will find healing from the actual trauma. So I, I go back to that a lot and that's why I think it's really important for you and I Rebecca, to talk about, you know, when we talk about the first, like the plaquea and the testimonial on for us to root ourselves in some somewhat of culture in the healing. SoRebecca (25:50):No, it's, it, it, yeah. I mean, I think in some ways we've been asserting that the, the, this whole time, right? This idea that like if you're black, you need lean fully in into that and fully into the ways in which your culture, that culture has made you, made, made pathways towards healing for you mm-hmm. , right? In the way that your culture has understood and made meaning out of your story. Um, and, and, and therefore created avenues of, of, of, of, of healing for you. Right? In, in a sense, you're asking what archetypes right? Ha has, has your culture creative for you. Um, and, and, and, and that the more that we do that, the less dissonance we have, right? Mm-hmm. . Um, and in some ways the very creation of sort of the identity of the oppressed, right? Is the, the, the, the very identity that gets created under the force and weight of oppression is that is what healing looks like, right? I mean that, like, the meaning that gets made out of the identity of the hyphenated existence is to define the harm and then define what it looks like to be healed from itin a way that is unique to the story that you have, Right? And then the truth is the same is true for the majority culture, right? I mean, and the, and the work that will have to be done on behalf of our white brothers and sisters is what does it look like to tell a true story and what does healing look like?, right? And, and I think the, the pitfall is if the invitation outta majority culture is to not tell the true story, if the invitation out of the perpetrator culture is to be dismissive and to live in a level of denial for what the true story is, you never get to those pathways or architects of healing because you, you can't admit that harm has actually been done.Is resiliency, Right? It is the God given capacity to navigate the harm that is embedded in your story. Right? And, and it is this sense that Jesus knew in this world you will have trouble. Like, like it's, it's, it trauma is going to hit you. Right? But, but I have embedded in, in, in, in your collective story at a sense of what healing looks like and redemption looks like for you, Right? And, and, and resiliency is your, is really in some ways the capacity to tap into that mm-hmm. and to leverage itDanielle (28:37):Mm-hmm. . So if you hit the next slide, um, tj, then we have this polyvagal chart, which I think says like our different cultures allow us to be in these different states and, and kind of like what we've talked about before, and that's not wrong. And, and I think, I think what's hard about this is that some of our resiliency has been pathologized.Rebecca (29:06):Yes. Very much so. Right? And the, the simple argument that, uh, because our, our whatever reaction we took in the moment was in fact a reaction to something traumatic is the thing that pathologizes it, right? And, and I, I think that's a mistake. It's like to say that we were kicked out of the garden and because of that, we built, we built a response to that severing that the response itself is pathological. Because our goal is to be back where we were in the garden before sin it, that that's not how the story go. That's not how it works, right? I mean, yes, we were excised from the garden, right? And what's pathological is that she ate the damn apple when God said don't do it. That that part is a problem. But, but, but, but the capacity that we developed to live life outside of the garden is not itself pathological simply because it is in reaction to the fact that we no longer live in the garden, Right?That, like, there will be a reaction and there's good reaction and healthy reaction that it, that is in fact resiliency. And then there are other reactions that are pathological that are problematic and that we do need to address, right? Mm-hmm. . But the simple fact that something is a reaction to a traumatic event does not itself pathologizing mm-hmm. , Right? And this is the part where I, I, I, tide tribute has a strong, um, and there's a line in the song where he says, um, something of like, the devil's gonna wish he never messed with me because I, like, I came back stronger and better than I would if, if he would've left me alone in the first place. Right? And so there, there's, there's something I think we're missing in the theological frame that that is like, um, the, there's something that happens in the meant for evil. God moves for good, there's something in whatever that switch is that rotation, that flip that is of significant value mm-hmm., Right? And if we simply pathologize it because it is a reaction to a move of evil, we have missed the, like, the mystery of God in that moment to take a thing that was meant to be our downfall and not only cause us to survive it, but to, but it is that thing that actually makes us better, stronger, more like him, Right? And so, so that in and of itself is good. Does that make sense? Mm-hmm. . And so there's something of the ability to move up and down this chart that is, that is freaking brilliantDanielle (31:57):Mm-hmm. . So, so I think I wanna go back to that story in Genesis. And when, you know, they ate the apple and then God came walking through, He, he asked them where they were, and through the conversation he says to them, you know, he finds out that they ate this apple and that that's why they were, you know, wearing, had sewed these fig leaves and made this, this, um, made these like coverings, right? I'm assuming for their body. But that's not, they weren't in trouble for their shame about their body. You know, that's not why he, he kicked them out of Eden. It was for what they did. And then actually when they were out of Eden, he honored that shame. He made them close out of animals. So God actually didn't take them, didn't take their shame and move them through this polyvagal chart and force them to be calm in their body in a certain way.TJ (32:58):I think that's a really important thing to say. Mm-hmm. .Rebecca (33:04):Right? And, and I think there's also a sense in whichThat what, what you're, what that means then is that something was fundamentally altered in Adam and Eve and they never got to go back to the state in which they were in Eden as if it had never happened. Right? And, and I, and I think there's something about the gospel that is, um, that that isn't what, that's not what you're meant for, right? There's a kind of naivete before she eats the apple. Mm-hmm. Right? That we, we don't get to go back to mm-hmm. . And, and there might be some loss there, right. Of, of, of innocence, Right. But there's also something to be gained in the process of having God honor the shame and re reshape it and reimagine it for us. Right? And, and it, um, there's a quote on my Facebook page, something of like, uh, um, a gratitude that I have for my struggle because in it, I stumbled across my own strength mm-hmm.. And, and so there's something, I think I, there's something that we gain in the wrestling and the struggling and the coming out in a place of God honoring where we've been, including the shame that we have felt that that, so you don't ever really get to go back home again, right? Like, you never get to go back to life before the apple, but you do know the grief of having ate the apple, the agony of having eaten the apple and the sweetness of God having restored your relationship to him even after you ate the apple. Right? That, and so there's a different depth to your relationship with Jesus, right? Mm-hmm. , I mean, I think we could feel it in our own marriages even, right? Like it sucked when we fight, but there, but there's something sweet about, about when you get to that place of like, I'm married to a guy in in with whom I can totally blow it. Like, totally blow it. Mm-hmm. and, and, and, and this relationship can hold that.Danielle (35:20):And, and I think I wanna make a like a further point. It's not that they didn't eat meat after this, but God sent Adam to do what was closest to him, which was till the earth because he had made Adam from the Earth, it says that mm-hmm. , he didn't send him to a place of then further shame where he had been caring for animals and implied, now you have to herd these animals. Like I think there's something special in thatRebecca (35:47):That was his job to begin with before Yeah. Before the apple, right? Yeah. Yeah. And, and so there's a sense of it being restored in some capacity.Danielle (35:56):Uh-huh and he literally put chair bins up there, they were never getting back in.Rebecca (36:02):Right? You Right, right. And, and that yes, there's some loss, but that doesn't mean that the progression forward does not bring like a corresponding sweetness that might even overpower the, the sense of loss.Danielle (36:18):And so I think that really fits with the clip from, um, from Incanto because they're not going back to that first city in that town andTJ (36:34):Uh, I think, I think it's, I, yeah, I'm having a lot of thoughts, but I just, I think pointing out that God treats their responses with compassion, cuz I don't think that's how we treat our own reactions. You know? Um, and my, my friend has gone off into this, like, she got in trouble on, um, for her take of like all, all coping is adaptive. Like she's trying to come against this like maladaptive coping label. And she's not saying that there aren't he versions of coping, but that we cope however we can. And then when we're able to cope better, we trade those coping mechanisms for ones that are healthier. And I think, I don't know, I I I'm not qualified to weigh in on that, but I think the point of treating ourselves with compassion, because when you see this chart, at least me, I'm like, well, how, how can I just get to the rest, like to the, you know, how can I move myself through? Um, because all other responses are bad when that's not what, that's not even how God treated Adam and e like, I think that's really important to say. Cause I don't think that's our default response is to like treat our reactions with compassion. And I don't think they change unless you can hold them with compassion.Rebecca (37:54):I would actually argue that our, our body's capacity to move along this chart is, is God, is God given. Right. Right. And there, there's a very appropriate time and a place for fear for, for anything that's on here. Right. Um, I I think, uh, I I don't even think you could argue that we're meant to live in this place of perpetual rest.Jesus is like on day seven, hollered me about rest. Right. But until then, like, you know, so are we right? I I I think like our capacity to move through these things is, is God given in the first place, Right? And some of the ness that we might feel is when there's not a sense of b balance or a sense of home, you know, like of the fluid sort of homeostasis of being able to read a situation and move with agility between the, these phases, right? Um,Danielle (39:00):Or the way perhaps our cultures have been pathologized for staying in different places in this right cycle. And therefore as a practitioner working in a cross-cultural environment, we have to come in with an attitude of first alignment and then willingness to be curious and receive, you know what Ernest said, that customizabilityRebecca (39:24):Right? Right. That plus I think, like I said, I think there's a time and a place for every single thing on here. So some of the pathologizing of communities of color is like, sometimes vigilance is not hyper vigilance, sometimes it's just situationally appropriate vigilance. Right. And, and the problem is that the majority culture is isn't paying attention to the power dynamics in the room. So they are misreading the need for vigilance in the room. Right. And so, and so then I'm not actually in this pathological space of hypervigilance, Right? I'm not in this space of PTSD where I'm actually not on the battlefield. And so my vigilance doesn't make any sense. I actually am, and my body is rightfully reading some sense of threat in the room. The problem is that in your not reading the room, well as you know, as, as a member of the culture that happens to be in power in that moment, you, you're, you're, you're not, you're not being honest about what the dynamics in the room really are. So you miss it. Mm-hmm. , and then you, you know Right. In a way that was like accusatory, like, like you're not, you're not doing the work because you're not, you're doing this and, and that's not necessary. You know what I mean? So Yeah.Danielle (40:49):So I wonder if it'd be possible to even name during this section, and we're talking about Adam and Eve, that when you're the other, like as a culture that's stepping into this experience, that it's possible you may be going up and down this chart, like what is Danielle gonna say? Mm-hmm. , what is Rebecca gonna say? What will happen in this moment mm-hmm. and, and to, for us to honor those bodily experiences. And maybe, you know, how we did with Jenny just slow down and ask mm-hmm. . Cause I will be going up and down this chart during the talk because, you know, there's performance pressure. There's the idea of I wanna honor my culture. There's the idea of how do I interpret myself. So I think it's fair to name that.Rebecca (41:42):Yeah. And that there are really good reasons why Right. That that, you know, and, and how do you step into a sense of self evaluation about how much, what, where's the line for me between like, this is a, a resilient response that I need to honor and where there are places where there's some hypervigilance, right? I mean, not that you wouldn't honor all of it, but to help them start to understand like there, there are resilient reactions and then there are reactions that are more about like being resigned to, to the weight of our collective stories. Right. And the, the text doesn't ask us to be resigned. Right? Right. It, it, it ask us, uh, to, to fight and to persevere, right? Mm-hmm. , um, and to press on towards the mark.Danielle (42:33):And in fact that's where, you know, that's where we can come back to like, God didn't ask Adam to get on with it to like stay naked. Right. And he didn't even call it out as a problem. He's just like, Here man, here's some nicer clothes.Rebecca (42:53):Right. And right. And, and you can almost hear in that a sense of like, like Eden is where you started, but it isn't where you're gonna end up. And, and and, and there is a journey that we will be on together. Right. And so like, there's some things you're gonna need for the journey, including some clothes, right? Not, not, not, I mean, Yeah. Yeah. And, and if we really truly believe that God is omni mission and he knew from the beginning and therefore the apple and the fall not, did not surprise him and that he always had a plan for Right. Jesus was always in the work mm-hmm.And that he always meant for us to end up in Revelation 79 knowing what it would cost us to land it there through that pathway. Right. Then going back to Eden before the fall was, was is not how we're supposed to play this game.Yes. And also, uh, it maybe took us the struggle of the past year to figure out this is the talk.Cause there's something really inviting about Eden is what you're meant for. Like, it's not like that doesn't resonate and it isn't like it isn't true. Right. I mean, it is true that we, we were meant for the splendor of Eden. Right. But it's also true that the game changed.And, and, and then now we're meant for something actually sweeter and richer with more depth than Eden.Danielle (44:51):Mm. That makes me wanna cry. Cause it feels hopeful compared to what I have felt, you know?Rebecca (44:59):Like where it meant for the sense of greater, is he Right? I mean, where it meant for the sense of, and we shall overcome and the only way you get there is cuz there was something you had to overcome. Right. There's the, the like something went gravely wrong in Eden that put an obstacle in your way.Right? And so I think we have, right? Yeah.Danielle (45:25):TJ what are you thinking?TJ (45:28):Uh, I'm thinking about redemption for white people. Like what, what, you know, which is not the focus of this conversation. That's where my,Danielle (45:37):But I think it is actually part of the focus cuz I think we're all too, but you are white and, and you're in white skin, but you're also not white.TJ (45:45):Yeah, I know. Yeah. I, Yep. Super aware. And I, and I think that is like, just as you guys have been talking throughout the few weeks until, until more recently where I just am like, it's, it's like anything that you banish from the table has a lot of powerYeah. And yeah. So even though we're like not gonna devote any of our conversation to this part over here, which is an intentional choice, that actually necessarily means that it's exerting a lot of power over us. Um, so I don't know. I just was thinking about that, like what there is a movement to specific cultures. There's um, there's a recovery work and, and it's something that we're all doing, We're doing it in different ways. Sometimes we're doing it in different spaces, but we are doing itRebecca (46:51):Absent a frame around whiteness white people. And, and the redemption of that story, you, you, you can't in order to have a complete picture of God mm-hmm. and, and, um, and so they treat that as a sacred moment of curiosity around what is it that this culture knows about God that we do not mm-hmm. what parts of him are translated that we don't have words for mm-hmm. . Um, and it made me, it, when he told me that, it reminded me of you, it reminded me of us having some conversations that there's not a word in Spanish for resiliency mm-hmm. . Right. And so I just, yeah. I mean like that sense of like, there are ways that you will see it as a Latinx woman that will go right past my head as a black woman and, and if I'm wise, I will slow down and sit in that moment with you and be like, what do you know that I don't?How has God shown up in your culture in ways that he hasn't shown up in mind?Danielle (48:06):Well, I think it's gonna be good. Thanks for recording this, tj. AndYeah. And I know you gotta go.TJ (48:15):I do. But I appreciate you both. I respect you both. It's been really fun to work with you.Danielle (48:23):I'm glad we got into it because now I I, it, I think we were feeling our way around which, which part of the text gives us this. And I feel like we kind of just felt our way into that, you know? Mm. So that feels good to me, you know?Yeah. Okay. Bye.Rebecca (48:45):You. Thank you.TJ (48:46):Thank you 

Today's episode is about #TheBear. It's on #Hulu, and so many restaurant and bar industry people have been talking about this show. I have to say I was late to The Bear. Basically, I don't trust anything on TV to get it right. There have been a few movies and a few TV shows here and there about the restaurant industry, and they miss it by a mile. You know every chef is spotless, the kitchen is super clean, no one is dirty, no spills. And that is bullshit. So, I was skeptical of the show. Then I started to see articles in the Atlantic, Bon Appetite, and the New York Times about how #TheBear showed the manic and toxic environment that restaurants can have. And I got hooked on the show and binged it one setting. That's how good I thought this show was and, more importantly, how I thought this show got so much right.  So today, I'm talking to San Francisco Chef Freedom Rains. Freedom has worked at restaurants such as Boulevard, Incanto, Flour, and Water and now is Executive chef at Amano in Hayes Valley. And we get his take on the show and restaurants in San Francisco. www.amanosf.com/chef/ www.chefchriscosentino.com www.chezpanisse.com/1/ #alicewaters www.acmebread.com www.laurachenel.com www.zunicafe.com #jeremiahtowers

La sera del 20 luglio 2022, a Rio nell'Elba, per la precisione in piazza Matteotti, Loredana Lipperini, Mariano Tomatis e Wu Ming 1, pungolati dal direttore artistico di ElbaBook Festival Marco Belli, hanno discusso di incanto, disincanto, reincanto, meraviglia e magia, a partire dai loro ultimi libri, rispettivamente: Nome non ha (Hacca Edizioni), Incantagioni (Nero) e La Q di Qomplotto (Alegre). Durante la serata sono stati eseguiti un numero di mentalismo e un rituale con cui è stato evocato il fantasma residente in quella piazza.

Chef Shawn Naputi was born and raised on Guam. After graduating high school, he followed his passion by attending the California Culinary Academy of San Francisco.

"Pare che ci sia una particella subatomica chiamata incanto, pare che derivi dalla parola inglese charm, non ci capisco niente di fisica, l'ho scoperto così, cercando incanto sul vocabolario, mi interessava perché mi è capitato tra le mani l'avviso di un'asta giudiziaria e ho imparato che ci sono aste senza incanto, allora mi sono documentato, l'incanto è il rilancio, mentre senza incanto vuol dire che l'offerta va fatta in busta chiusa..." Testo, voce e musica di Giovanni Locatelli Immagine di Cristiano Baricelli Incanto è pubblicato su squadernauti.wordpress.com

Il Sentiero Bove nel Parco Nazionale della Val Grande è la più antica alta via dell'arco alpino. È dedicata all'esploratore piemontese Giacomo Bove, figura centrale delle scoperte geografiche di fine Ottocento, poi caduto vittima di una damnatio memoriae dovuta alla sua “imperdonabile” fine. Seguendo le tracce di Bove, Marco Albino Ferrari ricostruisce una storia dimenticata, accompagnato dalle musiche dal vivo del chitarrista Denis Biason, in uno spettacolo di parole, suoni e immagini in anteprima per il Festival della Mente. Un sorprendente viaggio nel tempo che ci porta attraverso coincidenze e colpi di scena fino alla trappola della notte artica: 35 settimane di attesa immobilizzati tra i ghiacci. Entreranno in scena personaggi inaspettati come Emilio Salgari e il professore svedese Nordenskiöld, tutti rimasti impigliati nella rete del grande esploratore morto suicida nel 1887.

Proprio oggi, nell'età di Internet e del trionfo delle immagini, siamo in grado di capire meglio la tradizione secolare dell'arte della memoria, che raggiunge nel Rinascimento le sue espressioni più spettacolari. Come succede ad esempio nel teatro della memoria di Giulio Camillo, un personaggio eccentrico, disprezzato come ciarlatano e esaltato come uomo divino. Poeta e maestro di retorica, mago e alchimista, mistico e libertino, amico di Tiziano e di Lorenzo Lotto, Camillo insegue per tutta la vita il suo sogno: un teatro della memoria capace di contenere tutto il sapere e insieme i segreti della bellezza, una mente artificiale che lega memoria e invenzione. A secoli di distanza, nel Novecento, un sogno analogo rinasce fra emigrati negli Stati Uniti, come nel Palazzo enciclopedico di Marino Auriti, o nelle fantastiche cattedrali e città utopiche di Achilles Rizzoli, che rappresentano l'interiorità delle persone amate.

Maria fu Unica, Insuperabile e Ineguagliabile perché la sola a fare vita nel Divin Volere, l'Unica in cui non ebbe mai luogo l'uman volere, Colei che possiede, come Dio mari immensi di grazia, di luce, di bellezza, di santità, di potenza, di scienza e di amore. Incanto dei santi nel vedere le gare di amore tra Dio e la divina Maria. Riferimenti: Libro di Cielo, Vol. 24, 15.8.1928.

Alessandro De Bei"Conversazione con gli spettri"La poetica di Alberto SavinioApogeo Editorehttps://www.apogeoeditore.it/Dobbiamo all'acume critico di Leonardo Sciascia la feconda riscoperta dell'opera letteraria di quel gigante del Novecento che è stato Alberto Savinio. È nell'elogio dell'arte della conversazione, in particolare, che Sciascia vede tralucere in filigrana la tessitura di un divagare delle “mete minime e inapparenti” che fornisce una delle cifre più significative di Savinio. Una vita, la sua, dedicata alla scienza metafisica, che rivela, dietro un ostentato polimorfico dilettantismo, una mente proteiforme, in grado di attraversare le arti, dalla musica (esordisce come pianista e compositore, un vero enfant prodige), alla pittura, alla letteratura, al teatro. Un progressivo spodestare l'uomo dalla gravità malinconica degli accademici, dei “poeti laureati”, per portarlo, superando via via il tragico, su un piano lirico, ovvero verso il superamento di un pensiero strumentale. Tutto ciò coi mezzi suadenti e magnifici di una prosa letteraria in cui trionfa il conversare ameno dietro arcaici miti e antiche, ancestrali, memorie, inglobati in una colossale autobiografia. Miti rivissuti come quelli di Ulisse, di Amore e Psiche e soprattutto di quel dio Hermes-Mercurio, messaggero alato, portatore-traghettatore di anime, una sorta di santo protettore di Savinio, sua proiezione e suo alter ego. La personalità dell'autore si finge e si figura nella sua creatura letteraria, la sua autobiografia ingloba personaggi illustri, antichi pensatori che si congiungono, con prodigiosi innesti, alle memorie familiari.Alessandro De BeiE' nato a Treviso nel 1971. Dopo il diploma presso il liceo artistico della sua città, si è laureato in pittura all'Accademia di Belle Arti di Venezia nel 1995. L'anno successivo si è specializzato in tecniche dell'incisione con una borsa di studio alla Scuola internazionale di Grafica d'Arte “Il Bisonte” di Firenze. Nel 1998 ha vinto il Premio “Tiepolo” alla Prima Biennale dell'incisione italiana di Mirano. Nel 2003 ha esposto le sue opere calcografiche alla Galleria degli Uffizi di Firenze, in occasione della mostra celebrativa dei vent'anni della Scuola de “Il Bisonte”, della quale è ritenuto uno degli incisori più rappresentativi. Collabora con la Stamperia d'Arte Busato di Vicenza. Dal 2013 è socio dell'Associazione Incisori Contemporanei ed ha partecipato a Biennali e Triennali di Incisione e ad esposizioni nazionali e internazionali. Come critico letterario ha curato la postfazione della raccolta "Sottocosta" del poeta Francesco Crosato. Suoi racconti di narrativa sono presenti in varie antologie. Nel 2017, al festival CartaCarbone di Treviso, è stato rappresentato il suo poema teatrale "Per una Musa ritrovata", dedicato ad Arturo Martini e a Giovanni Comisso. Nello stesso anno è stato ospite al Premio “G. Maestri” al Museo d'Arte della città di Ravenna. Sue opere si trovano in collezioni pubbliche e private, in Italia e all'estero. È docente di tecniche pittoriche nella città di Treviso.Ester Coen“Savinio.

Ester Coen"Savinio. Incanto e mito"Museo Nazionale RomanoPalazzo AltempsMostra aperta fino al 13 giugno 2021https://museonazionaleromano.beniculturali.it/palazzo-altemps/La mostra “Savinio. Incanto e mito” al Museo Nazionale Romano di Palazzo Altemps creerà corti circuiti sorprendenti con le magnifiche opere della collezione di sculture di Palazzo Altemps, suggerendo nuove affinità in un gioco di corrispondenze e accordi liberi e originali.Personaggio eclettico, erudito, dai molteplici interessi che spaziano dalla musica alla letteratura, dalla pittura al teatro, Alberto Savinio (Andrea De Chirico) – 1891-1952 – rappresenta la figura di un intellettuale dalla complessità straordinaria, capace di far dialogare e intessere le discipline umanistiche in un linguaggio visionario e all'avanguardia. La mostra “Savinio. Incanto e mito” al Museo Nazionale Romano di Palazzo Altemps mette in luce, attraverso alcuni temi e momenti fondamentali, la particolarità di una poetica che associa e coniuga antico e moderno, estetica e ironia, memoria e fantasia in un'ottica globale oggi di grande attualità. Il gioco, le strutture e trame illusorie e chimeriche, le civiltà passate e le epoche aurorali, la decostruzione dei racconti leggendari e mitici, le caleidoscopiche immagini che spezzano l'equilibrio visivo in composizioni inattese e folgoranti, diventano gli indizi da inseguire nei labirintici spazi del Museo. Divisi in diverse sezioni tematiche, i dipinti sulle pareti creeranno corti circuiti sorprendenti con le magnifiche opere della collezione di sculture di Palazzo Altemps, suggerendo nuove affinità in un gioco di corrispondenze e accordi liberi e originali."Savinio.

Sono passati oltre dieci anni dal trasferimento a Tellaro, piccolo borgo di pescatori affacciato sul golfo di Lerici, quando Mario Soldati intraprende il viaggio d'assaggio nella sua regione d'adozione.Dalle terrazze a picco sul mare del Levante ai bricchi spazzati dalla tramontana di Ponente: ne viene fuori un affascinante e sincopato itinerario denso di tappe, soste e deviazioni.E noi ne seguiamo le tracce, addentrandoci in quella assurda lingua di terra schiacciata tra Mediterraneo, Alpi e Appennini che è la Liguria, fulcro della nuova puntata di Vino al Vino 50 anni dopo.Ad accompagnarci due grandi professionisti e conoscitori all inclusive della galassia “food & wine”, ma soprattutto amici speciali che ci regalano alcuni degli scambi più suggestivi e divertenti della seconda stagione del podcast.Docente di sociologia dei processi culturali e comunicativi presso l'Università degli Studi di Milano (insieme a tanto altro), Mario de Benedittis ci aiuta a tratteggiare le coordinate geografiche e stilistiche della vitienologia ligure, prima di scortarci nella sua Genova: luoghi, tavole, cucina, fino alla costruzione di un vero e proprio “menù per Soldati” che abbraccia il meglio dell'identità gastronomica regionale, con buona pace dell'Ispettore Palma e della sua consueta imperdibile indagine.E' invece il “non-prefattore” nonché direttore di Teatro del Vino, Luca Santini, a guidarci alla scoperta del paesaggio viticolo e soprattutto umano di Dolceacqua. L'aura magicamente ancestrale disegnata da scrittori straordinari come Francesco Biamonti e Nico Orengo che si interseca con la vita reale viaggiata tra volti, ricordi, incontri inattesi, convivî. Storie di amicizia e condivisione, prima di ogni altra considerazione.Memorie che riportano a galla anche antiche controversie mai del tutto sopite, come quelle che ricostruisce per noi Giovan Battista Pittaluga, meglio conosciuto come il famigerato Pirata Jonathan Bread.Pronti dunque a salpare con l'intera ciurma e la stiva carica come non mai di rifornimenti.

Seguendo il senso religioso, lungo le tracce del sacro, la terra di Lucania regala “il sorriso di Dio”. Lauree e cenobi, monasteri a cui solo accede l’anima che anela al ristoro dell’Eterno, s’alternano al frastuono dei riti arborei sopravvissuti ai secoli, e divenuti, nel tempo e fra i boschi, cristiani. Perché al turista come al viaggiatore la Basilicata disvela l’intimo misticismo di cui è intrisa la sua gente; i luoghi che segnano le testimonianze del sacro; il tempo che si rinnova secondo le liturgie dei culti mariani, il cielo abbagliante sotto il quale è andata in scena la Vita di Cristo, ripresa da tanto cinema religioso di grande fascino ed eco.

I am beyond honored to call these 2 gentleman friends. I have been fortunate to have many a lunch with them both. Having spent time staging in St John many years ago, to hosting them both at Incanto many years ago for a special dinner. The conversations are always powerful and fun so I hope you enjoy this one. This podcast was recorded in a place with a echo we did our best to make this an easy listen please enjoy. Follow them: @trevoegulliver @st.john.restaurant @fergushenderson AN INTRODUCTIONFergus Henderson and Trevor Gulliver opened London’s St. JOHN Smithfield in 1994. The restaurant was to become one of the most influential restaurants internationally in terms of cuisine, design and philosophy, making Fergus both a food hero and one of the most significant chefs in the world. The accolades are many, with a long-held Michelin Star, a collection of lifetime achievement awards, a place on many global restaurant rankings and more. Fergus’ books have remained in permanent publication since his first, Nose to Tail Eating, was published in 1999, going on to be named in the LA Times as the world’s most influential cookbook. St. JOHN is more than a restaurant – it is an icon. “The contribution to the London food scene that has been made by maverick restaurateurs Fergus Henderson and Trevor Gulliver cannot be underestimated. From opening subsequent joint ventures and shaking up longheld assumptions about what diners want to eat – and are willing to try – to nurturing and training a whole generation of likeminded chefs and restaurateurs who have taken on board the ethos of St. John and followed it through to their own unique conclusion, Fergus and Trevor’s influence has been monumental. The knock-on effect of their staunch focus on British ingredients and reintroducing parts of the animal to the menu that had lost favour with diners has been felt in restaurants not only in the capital but also around the world.”- Cara Frost-Sharratt FERGUS HENDERSON and TREVOR GULLIVER Photo credit: Photo from Observer Food Monthly cover 2014 Fergus Henderson is widely recognised as one of the most influential figures in the modern restaurant scene, both in the UK and internationally, responsible for transforming how and what people cook and eat. He coined the now-ubiquitous phrase Nose-to-Tail in his eponymous and multi award winning cookbook of the same name, Nose to Tail Eating, which was published in 1999 and went on to be named in the LA Times as the most influential cookbook of all time. This and his three subsequent books have remained in print ever since; widely read, used and admired and hailed as essential modern classics.In 2005 Fergus received an MBE for services to gastronomy, followed by Lifetime Achievement Awards from the influential 50 Best list, Tatler, Observer, the BBC and more. He is one of the most iconic and adored figures in restaurants today.Trevor Gulliver founded St. JOHN with the experience of creating several award-winning London restaurants behind him, including wine bars, diners, microbreweries and the seminal Fire Station in Waterloo where he is credited as pioneering the open kitchen format. He has steered St. JOHN over 25 years to achieve and maintain international prominence and veneration, while guiding thoughtful expansion and development across the many diverse elements of the group. In 2019 Trevor co-authored The Book of St. JOHN with Fergus Henderson, to critical acclaim.Where Fergus is responsible for putting food on the plate, Trevor is responsible for putting wine in the glass. His close relationships with vignerons have formed the strong reputation enjoyed by St. JOHN’s all-French wine list, and the production of the critically-acclaimed wines at the St. JOHN winery in France is informed and built by his expertise.THE St. JOHN GROUP St. JOHN has six operations: two restaurants, a bakery, a wine import company, a winery in France and a branded retail product arm. Each of the enterprises are unique but they all adhere to the distinct style and philosophy which gathers all branches of the business under the St. JOHN umbrella and make them so instantly recognisable. Each is at the beating heart of the vibrant community in which it was established. St. JOHN SMITHFIELD The first St. JOHN Restaurant in London's Smithfield was opened in 1994. Housed in an old bacon smokehouse, Trevor and Fergus did little to the space other than whitewash the walls. In the twenty years and more that followed, St. JOHN has become an institution, much lauded (and copied) for its pared back aesthetic and a simplicity which was shocking at the time, with Fergus Henderson hailed as the godfather of modern British cookery. St. JOHN BREAD and WINE The opening of St. JOHN Bread and Wine followed in 2003, when the baking of bread for which St. JOHN had become lauded outgrew the Smithfield location. Initially intended as a counter for breads and takeaway wines, offering small plates for those who stopped by as they collected their supplies. Its position as a restaurant in its own right soon overtook the original intention and it is widely credited as pioneering the style of seasonal small-plate modern British dining which is now ubiquitous in East London and beyond. St. JOHN BAKERY Proper bread is central to the St. JOHN philosophy; Fergus says: “Bread is as essential as your knife and fork in the eating process”. The Bakery is housed within a Victorian railway arch, from where it produces the sourdough and doughnuts for which the bakery has become famous, along with a wide range of other renowned products destined for the tables of other iconic restaurants such as The Ivy, Siren at The Goring, The Hoxton Group and many more. A St. JOHN Bakery retail site is located in the famous and unique Neal’s Yard, in London’s Covent Garden, selling loaves, doughnuts, morning pastries and wine to the local community and the steady stream of tourists charmed by the area and the shop. Another retail site is to follow in London’s foodie hub Borough. St. JOHN WINESThe strong principles of genius loci that St. JOHN proudly applies to the restaurant ingredients also extended to the wine list, with Trevor’s resolve that “we would buy from our neighbours” creating an all-French list, bought direct from vignerons. Trevor works year on year with the various winemakers to decide on the blends for the own-label St. JOHN wines, creating wine that is true to its region, good value and perfectly suited to the table. In 2008 Fergus & Trevor purchased their own winery in the Minervois, France, from where they make their own acclaimed Boulevard Napoleon wine. Both the St. JOHN label and the Boulevard Napoleon wines are sold to restaurants, retailers and private customers across the UK, US and Canada.

Era via Galliera, fino al tardo Ottocento la via più nobile di Bologna, prima che Via dell'Indipendenza venisse costruita. La visione d'insieme della città per chi ci arrivava in diligenza o per chi ci arriva in macchina al giorno d'oggi è la stessa: monocroma. Le tegole, i muri, le tende, il cielo, le piazze. La bellezza di Bologna ha mille sfumature e un solo colore: il rosso. Un bagliore sanguigno che non sbadisce nel tempo perché, ancor più che reale, è letterario. Oltre il fulgore colorato si ritrova, in tanta narrativa e poesia, la meraviglia del primo incontro con la città. “E' rossa, non ho mai visto un rosso come quello di Bologna. Ah se conoscessimo il segreto di quel rosso. È una città dove ritornare, la prossima volta” John Berger, La tenda rossa di Bologna “La creta, la selenite, l'arenaria. Di qui nasce il colore di Bologna. Nei tramonti brucia torre e aria” Roberto Roversi, Il Libro paradiso 1 “L'ombra di un portico di via Galliera, d'una casa che conosco, mi turba soltanto perché ricordo il colore rosso stinto, sotto il sole, dell'intonaco che fu recente ai tempi della dominazione pontificia. Un nobile colore che può trasfigurare anche la piccola storia dell'ottocento papale.” Francesco Arcangeli, Incanto della città. ©Elleboro editore - Lorenzo Notte

Andrea e Valeria commentano un paio di notizie degli ultimi giorni, entrambe piuttosto eclatanti: inizia Andrea, che ci parla della prima misura di acqua nell'atmosfera di un pianeta extrasolare, K2-18b.Lasciamo poi la linea a Paolo per un'intervista a Michele Bellone, giornalista scientifico e autore di Incanto, "un viaggio alla ricerca della scienza nascosta in molti archetipi della narrativa fantastica".È il turno di Valeria di affrontare l'altro argomento "caldo", ovvero una recente ricerca (su quasi mezzo milione di individui) volta a provare a evidenziare una base genetica per l'omosessualità: [spoiler] per la prima volta possiamo dire che queste basi genetiche non esistono.Ricordiamo infine la Notte Europea dei Ricercatori, che porterà un sacco di scienziati in giro per le città italiane e il nostro ormai espertissimo Giorgio a Pavia, andatelo a trovare numerosi il 25 settembre!

Come fa un drago a volare? Il fantasy esige una sua credibilità, e può diventare terreno di indagine scientifica

In this episode, we discuss and review the ep. “The Great Incanto". We talk about our general dislike of the episode, the Alexz Johnson YouTube documentary, the So Weird forum, and more! Let us know what you all think about this episode or other general comments! Thank you for the support as always and for the feedback. We always read aloud all the comments we get when we record :). https://www.patreon.com/soweird

When you come to Puerto Vallarta, there are many options of places to stay. Some choose Airbnb. Others go the more traditional route and stay at one of the fine hotels or resorts in Vallarta. Others look to various websites for the less traditional places, like condominiums and Villas for rent.  Tim Longpre' from PVRPV was a suggestion from JR who told me that if I wanted to talk to one of the largest, and best known of vacation rental companies, in Puerto Vallarta.,  I need to talk with Tim Longpre’.   Xaime Ximenez has no use of his arms, he paints in Puerto Vallarta with his mouth. I have an interview with Xaime. Listen to The Podcast Hello fellow travelers, welcome this episode of the Puerto Vallarta Travel show. I am your host Barry Kessler and I am just so happy to be introducing you to my favorite vacation destination, and maybe even yours, Puerto Vallarta Mexico. That music you were just listening to is [caption id="attachment_194" align="alignright" width="300"] La Palapa, Puerto Vallarta, Mexico[/caption] performed by Alberto Perez, the owner of the La Palapa Group of Restaurants. Those are La Palapa, The El Dorado Restaurant, and at night for dinner The El Dorado transforms into the ever so romantic Vista Grill with those dramatic views of the Los Muertos Pier all lit up at night in beautiful colors. Of course, at La Palapa you can enjoy that same view of the Los Muertos Pier all day long for breakfast, lunch or dinner, seated with your toes in the sand right at the water’s edge. It’s so romantic, it’s so Puerto Vallarta my friends! This week, I have a couple of interviews two people I want to share with you my listeners, one is Tim Longpre’ from a company called PVRPV, and we will be talking about Vacation Rentals in Puerto Vallarta, and someone who was introduced to me by one of our listeners, Xaime Ximenez, a man who paints beautiful pictures using his mouth, but first, lets see what’s going on in Puerto Vallarta this week, the 20th of December 2017. If you remember last week’s show, I announced the Coffee Drinking Challenge where Vallarta was gearing up to break the Guinness Book of Records record for coffee drinking. The goal was to get 10,000 people to drink coffee at the same time. Well, there was rain last week in Vallarta. Like for a day and a half there was rain, so the event was postponed for February. So no go with the Joe. I will keep you informed as to the new date, the ways to sign up and all that jazz as the information comes in so look for that soon. [caption id="attachment_2083" align="aligncenter" width="1000"] Meet and Greet Jan 9[/caption] Remember I have some events coming up in Puerto Vallarta the first 2 weeks of January.  I will have my microphones at JR’s Meet and Greet at Kelly’s Pour Favor Cookhouse and Saloon, on Tuesday January 9th at 5:30 in the afternoon. Stop by and tell us what the heck you are doing in paradise. And like I said last week, if you are a local Puerto Vallarta business, please stop in and give a pitch to our audience. I actually got a phone call from a really nice guy who represents a group of dentists around the bay, and he wanted to come on the show to tell us about their specials for vacationers who might need some dental work done while they are in paradise, so I told him come on down and lay it on us. So we will see if we see him at the meet and greet. Anyway, as I’ve said before, we always have a great time at JR’s Meet and greet, so if you are going to be in town, stop in and let’s talk. If you are too shy, that’s okay. Just stop in and say hello.

The date and time for that will be the Thursday January 4th at 2 PM.  So, if you are in town and want to say hello, I’ll buy you a beer, I’ll even order you some chips and guacamole if you will sit down with me and tell me what you are doing in paradise. Do you have a Puerto Vallarta Story you want to share with my listeners, I would like to hear it and so would all of my listeners too, so stop by and let’s talk. Hey, I’m offering Beer and Guack guys. It doesn’t get any better than that. Just sayin’. So remember Thursday, January 4th at 2:00 PM till let’s say 4:00 in the afternoon. Let’s record some interviews in front to the Cuates y Cuetes web cam. [caption id="attachment_2121" align="aligncenter" width="1000"] Cuates y Cuetes Webcam[/caption] Talking about telling Puerto Vallarta Stories, I was communicating with a friend Sharon who lives in Southern California, and she was talking about flying out of Tijuana to Puerto Vallarta, to save money, and it reminded me of a time that Debbie and I flew out of Tijuana, to save money, and well, that is one heck of a story that I need to share with you. Next week. Maybe I can get Debbie to come on the show with me to relive the harrowing experience. Harrowing you ask? Yes, but you are going to have to wait till next week. Let’s see if I can get my wife to come on the show. Next week then. Hey, I’m going to see if Sharon will tell us how it went for her. Let’s see if I can get her to come on the show next week too. Show Suggestions From Listeners Last week, I also asked you to send me suggestions for interviews for the second season of the show, and I got two suggestions for the same person. My friend Deana writes..... You should interview Sylvie Scopazzo. She performs at Captain Dons, takes in stray dogs and adopted one of her own, belongs to a big “motorcycle biking group,” attends and participates in “all things Vallarta” (ie: fund-raisers for organizations and people in need, support and participation in parades & social gatherings for the city, and is an “all around positive person.” Sylvie is a Jack of all trades. She has lived in Vallarta for over 20 years. Is in a band called the Zippers who perform at el Rio, Incanto, Por Favor and private venues. Organizes tours up to the cross on a weekly basis. Studied for her tour guide license. Loves to share her city with vast knowledge of years’ experience of living there. She also organizes LOCA (women only) gatherings and hiking/outdoor field trips and has volunteered on her own to raise money to support needy causes in Vallarta and earthquake victims in other cities. Speaks excellent Spanish. And she finished up by writing... Barry, I've been enjoying your podcasts, thanks so much for taking the time to do these. Then, Listener Kathleen Writes.. Hi Barry! I've been enjoying your podcasts, thanks so much for taking the time to do these. I have a recommendation for you. Sylvie Scopazzo. She has lived in Vallarta for 20 years, has her own tour company and she sings in a band. She is definitely well connected. Well, Deana and Kathleen, you asked for her, and I’m going to get her to come on the show. Just you wait. And Sylvie, I’m looking for you. Evidently, so are a whole lot of other people so Sylvie Scapazzo, see you in a couple of weeks okay? Okay! Sylvie is going to be a great interview and I’ll try to have her on in January. She has some great information and some incredible stories.  And speaking of suggestions, please keep them coming. Go to the contact us tab at the top of the webpage and send me a message.

Contact The Puerto Vallarta Travel Show Puerto Vallarta Travel Show on Facebook Puerto Vallarta Travel Show on Twitter Puerto Vallarta Travel Show YouTube Channel   Xaime Ximenez, Mouth Painter in Puerto Vallarta And speaking about suggestions, this first interview, comes from a suggestion from a listener, actually, this listener has been on the show. It was Reggie Belew and he was on the show in September with his wife Donna. And Reggie told me about Xaime Ximenez, the mouth painter on the Malecon. Listen to the Interview below with Reggie and Donna [caption id="attachment_1637" align="aligncenter" width="800"] Reggie & Donna Beleu in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico[/caption] I had never heard of Xaime, so in October, I sought out this guy and say and had a conversation with him. Xaime accepted my invitation to talk with you guys so without any further dillydally, let’s get to the remarkable Xaime Ximenez, the Mouth Painter, on the Malecon, in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. [caption id="attachment_2124" align="aligncenter" width="798"] Xaime Ximenez, Mouth Painter[/caption] Listen to The Podcast His work is great. I purchased a beautiful painting from him for about $40 US. It measures approximately 8” x 12” mounted on a paper border, [caption id="attachment_2127" align="aligncenter" width="576"] El Camion y El Artista by Xaime Ximenez[/caption] ready for framing. It is entitled, , El Camion Y El Artista, the sidewalk and the Artist,  and it depicts Xaime, painting away on the Malecon. [caption id="attachment_2128" align="alignright" width="169"] Info in Back of the Painting Telling Xaime's Story[/caption] You need to see it. And when you are in Puerto Vallarta one of these fine days, go see his work, talk with him and buy one of his pieces. Let him know you heard him on The Puerto Vallarta Travel Show. He will get a kick out of that.  I have a picture of the painting in the show notes as well as photos I took of Xaime and his artwork. You can also go to his website and I have a link to it in the show notes as well. You can see pictures of Xaime from his early days as an artist on the Malecon. It’s pretty cool. And if you like, on his website you can purchase his artwork online as well. So, check it out. [caption id="attachment_2126" align="aligncenter" width="1000"] Click For Google Earth View. Location Where Xaime Sets up Shop[/caption] You can find Xaime during the day, from like 10 in the morning till about 4:30 or so. He is located in the plaza where the outdoor amphitheater is at the arches, along Calle Zarragosa, across from the Domino’s Pizza place which happens to be next door to the Naval Museum. I have him marked on a map, in the show notes of this episode of the show at www.Puertovallartatravelshow.com.                                 [caption id="attachment_2132" align="aligncenter" width="1000"] Xaime Ximenez, Mouth Painter in Puerto Vallarta[/caption] Visit Xaime Ximenez Website Xaime Ximenez Facebook Xaime Ximenez Pinterest Xaime Ximenez Twitter   Tim Longpre' of PVRPV in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico [caption id="attachment_2146" align="aligncenter" width="500"] Tim Longpre PVRPV[/caption] When you come to Puerto Vallarta, there are many options of places to stay. Some choose Airbnb. Others go the more traditional route and stay at one of the fine hotels or resorts in Vallarta. Others look to various websites for the less traditional places, like condominiums. In Puerto Vallarta, many people have purchased vacation properties, they are condominiums for the most part. And as part of the plan for many of these buyers, they rent out their unit when they aren’t using it. You know, like if they have to work to earn money to take the time off for a well-deserved break in Paradise. So, they find a property manager to rent out the unit, to cover the costs of ownership in the meantime. And my guest in one of these property managers. Actually, Tim Longpre was a suggestion from JR who told me that if I wanted to talk to one of the largest, and best known of vacation rental companies, I need to talk with Tim Longpre’ of PVRPV, Property Rentals. And when JR says I should talk to someone, I listen. So I went down to the offices of PVRPV, on the southside on Puerto Vallarta, and had a conversation with Tim Longpre, of PVRPV. [caption id="attachment_2142" align="aligncenter" width="1000"] Tim Longpre of PVRPV[/caption] Listen to The Podcast Tim's Favorite Restaurants   Breakfast Fredy's Tucan, Puerto Vallarta Coco's Kitchen, Puerto Vallarta Lunch Serrano's Meat House, Puerto Vallarta Joe Jacks Fish Shack, Puerto Vallarta Dinner Anejo Limon, Puerto Vallarta  (closed)  No Way Jose, Puerto Vallarta Joe Jacks Fish Shack, Puerto Vallarta Langostino's, Puerto Vallarta Advice to First Time Visitor to Puerto Vallarta Be Aware of Your Surroundings Take a Taxi Late at Night.

I have links to his website in the show notes from this episode including piece of Tim’s office and some of the properties he represents.

Puerto Vallarta Craft Beer Festival I got a text from my buddy Edgar Cisneros who wanted to tell me about an upcoming Craft Beer Festival he says….”I would like to let you know, [caption id="attachment_1876" align="alignright" width="615"] Craft Beer Festival PV[/caption] we´re doing another festival in PV and this time will be the @brew masters a craft beer festival for Nov. 18th and 19th at the Cuale Island. Link to their Facebook page in the shownotes of this episode. Brew Master Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/brewmasterspv/ Last week’s episode about Dia de Los Muertos seemed to hit a nerve with some of you. Funny how death and dying gets the attention of you guys. I got an email from listener Dwight and I thought I would share it with you. Wow, what a podcast! I saw the description and was expecting info about the Dia de Los Muertos, which I got.  Then a completely unexpected turn to actually dying in Puerto Vallarta.  This was VERY informative and interesting and I had always wondered what happens if you die in paradise.  This was always in the back of my mind, ever since seeing the film "The Night of the Iguana".  At the end of the film, …Spoiler Alert Spoiler Alert….okay,,,,,ready? If you don’t know the end turn down the volume or forward this 15 seconds okay? All right stand by 3, 2, 1.   ever since seeing the film "The Night of the Iguana".  At the end of the film the old grandfather recites his poem and promptly dies right there in Mismaloya overlooking the waves.  I thought "I wouldn't mind dying that way, in a beautiful place with family at your side". In the film, the locals said they would take care of burying the body.  But your podcast made it clear all the legal ramifications that one needs to be aware of.  Excellent episode! The line of the year:  "For $1,050 dollars US you can make an ash of yourself in Puerto Vallarta".  I laughed out loud today on the 405! Take care, -Dwight Now Dwight is a cool dude. He lives not too far from me in LA, and we have got to get together for some Mexican food here in town soon. But he is going to Lake Chapala and Vallarta in the next week or two, so I’m going to have dinner with him and pick his brain and maybe even get him to talk about his experiences in paradise and hopefully even a little bit about his take on Lake Chapala. Also I got an email from my buddy Skip from Minnisocold he writes, amoung other things….…- a great job on Dia de Los Muertos. For $1000-1500 USD I told my wife that if I should die in Mexico, I am staying there. The $10K USD savings can buy our son and daughter a lot of airline tickets to visit dad's grave.” So Dwight, Skip, Thanks for the notes. I really enjoyed doing that episode and if you didn’t catch it, check it out. Find out what happens when people die in paradise. Listener Skip also sent me a long list of questions and they are really good questions, so I will take some time Skip, and answer them on the air next week because I am pretty sure my listeners have similar questions, so next week, I have some questions and answers coming to you. Piano Bar Serves as a Happy Hour Area before and after the show [caption id="attachment_1886" align="aligncenter" width="1000"] Piano Bar Incanto Restaurant Courtesy of Bob McCuaig[/caption] [caption id="attachment_1883" align="aligncenter" width="1000"] Riverside Cafe Incanto, Puerto Vallarta Photo Courtesy of Bob McCuaig[/caption]   [caption id="attachment_1885" align="aligncenter" width="1000"] Theatre Incanto, Puerto Vallarta, México - Courtesy of Bob McCuaig[/caption] The First Tiles Are Set in Tile Park PV Natasha Moraga has laid her first tiles in Lazaro Cardenas Park, so the project is under way, but she needs your support so Just reminding you that Christmas and the holidays are on the way and  there are still tiles available for you to purchase so go to www.tileparkpv.com, or go to my shownotes for this episode and you will find the links there. Remember to leave your mark, in Lazaro Cardenas Park, in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Parque de Los Azulejos Website Okay, there is so much going on in Puerto Vallarta right now as high season is kicking into gear, and I could make this a 2 hour episode if I wanted to, but hey, a Real Estate agent that you know….me ..needs to work and sell a couple of properties so I can afford to hop on a plane and bring to you, all the cool things happening in Paradise right? So, with that in mind, let’s get to our guest. Incanto - Cabaret, Piano Bar & Cafe in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico Last October, I saw this long abandoned building along the Rio Cuale, just down the way from the watchmaker on the Bridge Mario Rosette, you [caption id="attachment_1901" align="alignright" width="191"] Bingo With Pearl at Incanto Artwork Beverly Fairfax[/caption] remember Mario. I spoke with him on the show about Mi Café Restaurant? Well just down the street from Mario’s office and just up the street from the Belmar Hotel, was this large white building, long empty and waiting for a tenant and low and behold they were working on it, and the when I got back in January of this year, it looked like It was getting ready to open. I spoke briefly about it with Gary Beck in January when we were talking about the restaurants of Puerto Vallarta, and then once again in May, when we talked all about the theaters and entertainment here in this wonderful town. The name of the place is Incanto. Incanto Cabaret, Piano Bar & Café. And it’s all of those things and more, and I’m really excited to introduce this place to you, and the creator of this lovely, creative space, Tracy Parks.

So romantic, so Puerto Vallarta my friends. Really. You know, I was getting ready to put together this podcast and the blogpost, and I realized, after looking through all the pictures I took on three different cameras, that my pictures for Incanto had disappeared. They were just gone. I know someday they will turn up, but I was so fortunate to have my buddy and listener Bob McCuaig, from Kamloops Canada in town, and I was watching his antics eating and drinking with JR, and Ray, and he was hanging out at Café Roma, and Bar La Playa, and giving tours of his economy digs at the Hotel Encino Downtown. He outcheaped me and Cheap Debbie, $34 US per night for a big room, right in the middle of town with a pool. Very economical Bob. A man after my own heart.   [caption id="attachment_1906" align="alignnone" width="633"] Artwork Beverly Fairfax[/caption] Thank you Bob for taking those pics of Incanto for me.

An interview with listeners Reggie and Donna Belew From Tennessee who tell us about their vacation in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Also Puerto Vallarta Businesses Step Up to Support Mexico Earthquake Relief. Also more about Tile Park Puerto Vallarta. Hello fellow travelers, welcome this episode of the Puerto Vallarta Travel show. I am your host Barry Kessler and I am just so happy to be introducing you to my favorite vacation destination, and maybe even yours, Puerto Vallarta Mexico. Listen To The Podcast That music you were just listing to is performed by Alberto Perez, the owner of the La Palapa Group of Restaurants. Those are La Palapa, The El [caption id="attachment_196" align="alignright" width="300"] La Palapa, Puerto Vallarta, Mexico[/caption] Dorado Restaurant, and at night for dinner The El Dorado transforms into the ever so romantic Vista Grill with those dramatic views of the Los Muertos Pier all lit up at night in beautiful colors. Of course, at La Palapa you can enjoy that same view of the Los Muertos Pier all day long for breakfast, lunch or dinner, seated with your toes in the sand right at the water’s edge. It’s so romantic, it’s so Puerto Vallarta my friends! Today we will be talking with two great guests, listeners Reggie and Donna Belew from Tennessee, but before we get to them let's see what’s happening in Puerto Vallarta this week, the 26th of September, 2017. Last Tuesday morning, as I was recording the last episode of the podcast, Mexico was hit with its second major earthquake in twelve days. An earthquake with a magnitude estimated to be 7.1 hit approximately 55 km (34 mi) south of the city of Puebla. It caused major damage in the Mexican states of Puebla, Morelos and the Greater Mexico City area, including the collapse of more than forty buildings;  and although Mexico's SASMEX earthquake warning system provided 20 seconds' advance warning in Mexico City, 310 people have been reported killed, 273 of which in Mexico City and surrounding areas, and more than 4,600 were injured. Rescue missions are still underway as I speak. As I said, there had been an even larger earthquake 650 km (400 mi) away off the coast of the state of Chiapas twelve days earlier.   [caption id="attachment_1634" align="alignright" width="253"] Music For Mexico Earthquake Relief[/caption] And although Puerto Vallarta didn’t feel either shake, these earthquakes are devastating for Mexico. Earthquakes happen so fast, and are notorious not only for the death and injuries and fear they strike in people, but also for making people homeless and jobless, destroying homes and businesses. Well, I’ve got to tell you, there are a lot of people in Mexico right now who need our help. There are also quite a number of businesses and individuals in Puerto Vallarta who have teamed up to raise funds for earthquake relief. Manzon Brewery had a fundraiser, Incanto had one, They are having a show and silent auction at Act 2 on October 1st, so if you are in town, go check it out. Lots of great items being auctioned off as well as some great entertainment. I’ll even have an item in the silent auction, an opportunity to have your very own podcast episode dedicated to an individual or even a business in Puerto Vallarta, so if you are interested in having your very own episode, be the highest bidder. If you’re in town, You have to go to that as I said, if you are in town [caption id="attachment_1635" align="alignleft" width="300"] PV Mexico Quake Relief[/caption] And it’s so great to see the people of Vallarta stepping up for a great cause. And if you do choose to give to the Mexican Earthquake Relief effort, be careful who you donate to and who you donate through. Do your homework, and know that it’s not always the big name charities that do the best work for the lowest overhead, so talk to friends, check out these charities on the internet.         [caption id="attachment_1534" align="alignright" width="300"] Natasha Moraga[/caption] Now we all know that timing is everything, and  if you listened to last week’s podcast, I announced a very special project that I’ve got to tell you, got me and many of you really excited. It was the Tile Park project, the Parque de los Azulejos, in Lazaro Cardenes Park. The project is being done by the same person who did the tile wall on the Southside and in the Marina and elsewhere, Natasha Moraga. Well, last week, I announced to you that you could donate to her project, and I gave you instructions on how you could purchase commemorative tiles to be installed in Lazaro Cardenes Park, the money from those purchases, would go to help fund the project? Remember?  How can you forget? I even built a donate page on the Puerto Vallarta Travel Show website. Okay so this earthquake hits, just as the project was going to begin their fundraising efforts, so timing is everything, as I said. [caption id="attachment_1610" align="alignright" width="300"] Donate to Tile Park PV[/caption] Natasha and her people were planning on quite a few fundraising events for their project, but they are also keenly aware of the great need for money to help rebuild and uplift so many effected by these terrible earthquakes. And as I just said, there are numerous events being planned for earthquake relief right here in Vallarta. So, Natasha asked me to let you know that many of the planned fundraising public events will probably wait till probably after the first of the year, just so efforts to help with earthquake relief can proceed in earnest. And I understand her sentiments, but I just don’t want her project to get lost in the shuffle so to speak. Trying not to sound too insensitive here, I think we can think of giving to both the Tile Park project and to earthquake relief, so I’m going to keep pushing and promoting this project, El Parque de Los Azulejos. Listen folks, they are not self-funded and need the money from tile sales, personalized tile sales, to move this project forward. They need to sell commemorative tiles to help fund this project so go to the show notes to last weeks podcast as well as this one, and check out this beautiful park, Lazaro Cardenes Park, all done in beautiful mosaic tiles. [caption id="attachment_1535" align="aligncenter" width="1000"] Art Rendering Parque de Azulejos[/caption] Nat Moraga still has promised to sit with me for an interview soon, so will get that to you soon, and I’ll let you know when. As for these nasty earthquakes, these terremotos as they are called in Spanish, these Tremblors, I can definitely relate to these poor folks, I was [caption id="attachment_1538" align="alignright" width="300"] Art Rendering Parque de Azulejos[/caption] born and raised in Los Angeles, and I have lived through several major earthquakes, the latest big one, the Northridge Quake’s epicenter was not more than a ¼ mile from my home in the San Fernando Valley, and that was a 6.8. I’m telling you what, the aftershocks are what keep you up. They can be pretty frightening. Interestingly enough, Tuesday’s quake occurred on the 32nd anniversary of the 1985 Mexico City earthquake, which killed about 10,000 people, which was by the way, commemorated with a national earthquake drill at 11 a.m. local time, two hours before this earthquake struck. Kinda weird don’t you think? [caption id="attachment_1633" align="aligncenter" width="404"] Meet and Greet at Pour Favor[/caption] I’m planning a meet and greet in Puerto Vallarta for Tuesday, October the 17th at JR’s meeting place, Kelly’s Pour Favor Saloon and Cookhouse. He doesn’t know this yet, but I’m going to bring my microphones with me again, and have you tell me about what you are doing in paradise. And if you are a business and you want to make a pitch to my audience, you are more than welcome. I just have to lock down my airfare and I will be there. Guess I better tell my wife. Hummm. Yeah that would be best. See you there.   Okay, let’s get to the show and our guests, Reggie and Donna. [caption id="attachment_1638" align="alignleft" width="300"] Reggie & Donna Belew[/caption] I’ve got to say that my most popular podcast episodes are the ones with you listeners telling your stories and giving suggestions, so I’m pretty sure you are going to like my two guests. I love their accents, but hey, I’m from California and we have no accents, least that’s what I’ve been told. Reggie gave me a good review on iTunes and after I mentioned him on one of my podcasts and read his review, he followed up with an email. And it went like this… "My first visit to Puerto Vallarta was in May 1989. I was 20 years old. And I had only had two semesters of Spanish language classes in my then young lifetime.  A college buddy and myself drove over 2,000 miles (one way) from Florence Alabama to Puerto Vallarta. It took four days. And we only stayed a week. But oh my that changed my life. In 1990 I studied at the University of Guadalajara. I was able to visit Puerto Vallarta three times that year. And I traveled around Jalisco including trips to Barra de Navidad, Ameca and Tequila that summer." He also writes that he met JR on his last trip down… So I had to have Reggie on the show. His experiences, going to school in Guadalajara mirrored my own college Spanish experiences as well. When I was going to San Diego State University in 1978, I was given the opportunity to take a 6 week course in Mexico City and get a semester’s college credit for Spanish, so naturally I took advantage of it. It was a wonderful experience. I was totally immersed in the language. We lived with Mexican families, we went to class every day at 9. The Americans learning Spanish upstairs, and the Mexicans learning English downstairs. Then at noon, we dispersed and wen our own ways. I, usually with a hot Latina, and her friend…and her brother..ugh.. from class downstairs, and do stuff get totally immersed in the culture and in the language. [caption id="attachment_1626" align="alignleft" width="534"] Casa Isabel, Puerto Vallarta[/caption] By the time the 6 weeks were up, I was dreaming in Spanish, with English Subtitles.. No Lie! So Reggie did the same thing, only his university had a deal with a place in Guadalajara. Got to say, those were the greatest times. Listen To The Podcast Anyway, let’s get to Reggie and Donna and hear their stories… Gill Givens Books Vallarta's Funniest Man JR's Happy Hour Board [caption id="attachment_1655" align="alignleft" width="300"] JR s Happy Hour Board[/caption]   Restaurants They Liked Cuates y Cuetes La Palapa Freddy's Tucán Things to See and Do Xamie Ximenez the mouth painter at the arches across from the city plaza Puerto Vallarta City Tourism Office offers a walking tour free Tours to the Bell Tower at Our Lady of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Puerto Vallarta By the Rosary Bead Man Gary Thompson Sculpture Tour Print out J R's  Maps Roam the Cuale Island Gringo Gulch  Don't Forget Take good walking shoes Sunscreen Don't be afraid to try to communicate. Cool Places to Shop Lucy's Cucú Cabaña Sergio Bustamante Gallery Shop at the local markets [embed]https://youtu.be/Z0Zb-EQNTmQ[/embed] So they had some great suggestions here. That idea of laminating a map and directions to your hotel or condo is absolutely brilliant. Also the free city tour is a great idea. Splurge and treat yourself to a serenade. Who knows, maybe you’ll get lucky. There were a couple more great ideas but I’ll leave those for you to find when you go to the shownotes for this episode of the Puerto Vallarta Travel Show. Don’t forget to check out my webcam page, check out what the weather is like and what people are wearing in Puerto Vallarta in Real time.

Subscribe on iTunes & Leave a Good Review     Listen to The Podcast   Hello fellow travelers, welcome this episode of the Puerto Vallarta Travel show. I am your host Barry Kessler and I am just so happy to be to introducing you to my favorite vacation destination, and maybe even yours, Puerto Vallarta Mexico. That music you were just listing to is performed by Alberto Perez, the owner of the La Palapa Group of Restaurants. Those are La Palapa, The El [caption id="attachment_194" align="alignright" width="300"] La Palapa, Puerto Vallarta, Mexico[/caption] Dorado Restaurant, and at night for dinner The El Dorado transforms into The Vista Grill. That’s The Vista Grill that used to be up on the hill overlooking the city?  Well now it has a new vista and that is right on the beach where you get the same Vista Grill Menu, and the fantastic Vista Grill service and it’s right there on the beach with a dramatic view of the Los Muertos Pier all lit up at night in beautiful colors. Of course at La Palapa you can enjoy breakfast, lunch or dinner, with your toes in the sand right at the water’s edge. ! It’s so romantic, it’s so Puerto Vallarta my friends! Today we have a special show but first, what’s happening in Puerto Vallarta this week, the 22nd of August, 2017. The Ocean Grill Closed Down By Authorities Last week I talked about taking a hike from Boca de Tomatlan to Las Animas Beach. Remember? And in that podcast we talked about the famous Ocean Grill built into the cliffs at Colomitos Cove. Well, if latest my podcast has spurred you to give the Ocean Grill a try, hold everything boys and girls, stop the presses, the restaurant has been temporarily shut down by the authorities. Mexico’s equivalent of the EPA, the Environmental Protection Agency, has put an end to their operation. There are lots of stories swirling around, I have a link to an article written about the closure which you can find in the show notes of this podcast. Hey, listen, I have some information from pretty solid sources as  to what's going on, but for now, I just want you to know that if you currently have a reservation for the Ocean Grill, it will not be honored. They won’t send a panga to Boca de Tomatlan to pick you up and whisk you to Colomitos Cove and the Ocean Grill. They are shuttered at least until further notice.  http://www.elsoldenayarit.mx/cultura/54509-clausura-profepa-obras-e-instalaciones-del-complejo-turistico-ocean-grill-en-jalisco Upcoming Hotel and Resort Reviews One of my friends, Pamela, who lives in Lake Chapala just spent some time at the Garza Blanca Resort just south of Puerto Vallarta and I want to find out what she and her husband thought of the place. But more than that, Pamela is going to talk a little about her timeshares she owns and about the properties in Puerto Vallarta and along the Bajia de Banderas. I would consider Pam to be a luxury traveler. You remember, in the first episode I promised that this show was for the economy as well as the luxury traveler, well this episode will be for you. Imagine if you will, living just 6 hours’ drive from Puerto Vallarta like Pamela, that’s like me driving from LA to San Francisco. Well, that’s what Pamela needs to do to get to Puerto Vallarta. Pretty cool, right? How often would you hit PV a year if you could just hop in the car and drive there? What like, once a month? Well Pamela knows lots of great restaurants all along the bay, and more so stay tuned. Man killed by Crocodile in Ameca River, Puerto Vallarta Remember when me and JR talked about the crocodiles that live in Puerto Vallarta? Well, check out this article from yesterday’s Vallarta Daily.com.. The State Civil Protection and Fire Department of Jalisco confirms that a man in Puerto Vallarta was attacked by a crocodile in the Ameca River while fishing and was found dead. The man was identified as Gerardo Alvarez, 30, Corporal with the 41 Military Zone, who at the time was fishing in the river, located in the municipality of Puerto Vallarta. The report was received on Saturday when the search for the missing man began in the river, but the search was discontinued in the evening. Sunday morning the search was continued at 8:00 AM with the body being recovered at 9:44 AM in the Bay. The exact cause of death and injuries is still being investigated, however experts in crocodiles believe the man was fishing along the banks of the river with his feet inside the water. The crocodile, defending his territory, grabbed the man by his feet and dragged him into the river. The body showed signs of bites from the attack. Okay, so the Ameca river is the river that separates the states of Jalisco and Nayarit. It’s just north of the airport. You can see the crockodiles sometimes just lying there on the sandbars as you drive over the bridge, and there’s signs posted everywhere so heed the warning signs folks. Now crocodiles are actually seen regularly in the Marina, on golf courses. They are around so be aware. I have a link to the article in the show notes to this episode so check it out if you wish. https://www.vallartadaily.com/news/puerto-vallarta/crocodile-attack/   I received a couple of notes and letters and one great review on iTunes this week. The iTunes review is from Leaningoak from somewhere in the USA writes…. Excellent listen for travelers to paradise aka Puerto Vallarta in iTunes by Leaningoak from USA on August 14, 2017 Listening to Barry’s podcast has become very addictive. Before my last trip to paradise aka Puerto Vallarta earlier this year I discovered this absolutely essential listen for travelers to Mexico’s most popular tourist destination. And since returning home I continue to listen each week carefully noting travel tips for my next vacation. I would love to meet Barry in person but for now the world has this excellent podcast to keep us up to date and informed. The podcast has introduced us to J.R. of VallartaInfo.com who has lived in Puerto Vallarta for almost 40 years. We have gotten to hear from full time resident and restaurant reviewer Gary Beck. And then there’s an episode with Gary Thompson, owner of Galeria Pacifico, who graciously donates his time to do free walking tours along the Malecon. All excellent listening and soo much more. Thank you Barry for PuertoVallartaTravelShow.com and your podcasts! Thank you Leaning. I would love to meet with you too sometime in paradise. Let me know the next time you’re planning on coming down and if I’m in town, why not? Last time I was in town I had a meet and greet open mic event at Kelly’s Pour Favor Saloon and Cookhouse and we had a pretty good showing, problem was, some of my interviewees were a little bit sloshed. I mean, some of the interviews were actually pretty good, and I have some of those coming in the next few weeks to come, but man, I listened to some of the interviews and I just can’t use a whole bunch of them. I mean… well, it is a family show. Plus, I’m just not quick enough with the beeper to keep us rated as clean in iTunes. Just saying. Anyway Leaning Oak, we need to have a beer or a Paloma. Oh, I gotta tell you about Palomas but before I get off the subject, I just want you know Leaningoak from the USA, that these reviews keep me going. So Thanks by all means, all of you, and keep them coming in. Please. Okay, back to Palomas. In the interview I had with Jeff Bassett from Sun Sport Travel, Two weeks ago, oh by the way, Jeff wanted me to let all of [caption id="attachment_1384" align="alignright" width="300"] Amy Armstrong, The Palm Cabaret[/caption] you know that he is now full time in the travel agency business, so check out the links again to Sun Sport Travel on my links page. Anyhoo we talked with Jeff about fun in the summer sun.  Jeff and I were going back and forth about Palomas, Jeff saying that he was told that the true margarita was a Paloma, made with tequila, lime and squirt, and I laughed at him. Well, I got an email from my buddy Skip, from Minnisocold, we and Skip says this…. Like Jeff, I like the Paloma (Dove) as opposed to the Margarita (Daisy).  Palomas are less sweet and syrupy to my palate and I like the grapefruit taste. I make them with 4 parts Tequila, 1 part Lime Juice and add ice and either Squirt (Grapefruit soda) or Fresca (the sugar free stuff) to taste. Now I had to look up The Daisy and it’s made as  follows… INGREDIENTS 45mls of tequila 15mls triple sec [caption id="attachment_1363" align="alignright" width="198"] Incanto Puerto Vallarta[/caption] 30mls lime juice 15mls sugar syrup 15mls lemon juice 5mls orange juice Guava soda water   All right then, Who knew, but here’s how I was always taught a margarita was made. [caption id="attachment_1365" align="alignright" width="198"] Incanto Puerto Vallarta[/caption] Ingredients Lime wedge, plus 2 lime wheels for garnish 1 tablespoon coarse salt, for glass rims 4 ounces high quality blanco tequila (see note above) 2 ounces Cointreau 1 1/2 ounces fresh juice from 2 limes Directions Run lime wedge around the outer rims of two rocks glasses and dip rims in salt. Set aside. In cocktail shaker, combine tequila, Cointreau, and lime juice. Fill with ice and shake until thoroughly chilled, about 15 seconds (the bottom of a metal shaker should frost over). Fill glasses with fresh ice and strain margarita into both glasses. Garnish with lime wheels and serve. I really like Skip, He’s my kind of guy. We’ve been emailing back and forth. He wanted to know the best places to buy alcohol in PV and maybe in an upcoming episode, I’ll give you all the great tips for stocking up on alcohol for your extended stay in paradise. I mean, what kind of fun do you expect to have if your liver isn’t properly pickled in Paradise Pal? Really! [caption id="attachment_149" align="aligncenter" width="705"] The Puerto Vallarta Restaurant Guide With Author Gary Beck[/caption]   Puerto Vallarta Entertainment Venues [caption id="attachment_1346" align="alignleft" width="300"] Act II Stages[/caption]   Okay Let’s get to the show, Back in February I had a great conversation with Gary Beck, the author of The Puerto Vallarta Restaurant Guide, and we talked all about the restaurant scene in Puerto Vallarta. Gary is a wealth of knowledge and I asked to let me interview him again so we could talk about the entertainment scene in Puerto Vallarta.     So we sat down back in May and talked about the different venues as well as the shows from the previous year. One of the busiest places we [caption id="attachment_1366" align="alignright" width="340"] Danny Mininni[/caption] talked about was Act II Stages and The Red room cabaret, and I thought before we get into the conversation with Gary, I would bring on Danny Mininni, the head honcho at Act II to talk about what’s in store for the rest of the summer season. So let’s go to Puerto Vallarta and talk with Danny… [caption id="attachment_1362" align="alignnone" width="692"] Supermana[/caption] [caption id="attachment_1361" align="alignright" width="691"] Christine Deaver[/caption] Listen to The Interview   [caption id="attachment_1364" align="alignleft" width="213"] Salvatore Rodriguez[/caption] Also, before we get into Gary’s interview I want to introduce you to Salvatore Rodriguez. Salvatore is a Pianista. A pianist with a career spanning 38 years, and one of his claims to fame is that he is a Liberace Impersonator. Salvatore performs at Incanto at the piano bar playing for the breakfast and lunch crowd. But this week, if you happen to be in town, Salvatore will be playing at Incanto, August the 31st.  Here’s Salvatore explaining how he earned his stage name. … Listen to The Interview I like Salvatore a lot, and when I get back to Vallarta in a few weeks, I’m going to do an entire segment on this wonderful man.

The people of Vallarta await you with open arms. Take my word for it. This week I have a real treat for you guys but before I get to my guest, let’s see what’s happening in Puerto Vallarta this week, the 9th of April, 2017. [caption id="attachment_105" align="alignleft" width="300"] Pay For Taxis Here[/caption] As you may or may not know, the Puerto Vallarta Airport is going through a remodeling process but my man on the ground Yael who works at the airport tells me that there are two of the Mexican Bank Affiliated ATM Machines up and running now in the airport lobby where you buy your travel voucher for your taxi or van to your hotel or lodging. That gonna make it easier to get your pesos when you land at the airport with your ATM debit card. For more information about money exchange and cell plans and what to expect when you arrive at the Puerto Vallarta Airport, you should listen to episodes 2 and 3 of the Puerto Vallarta Travel Show where we talk about all of those important items and more so listen to the podcasts or read my shownotes to those shows. Now you listeners are really coming through with your great suggestions, your stories and questions all about Puerto Vallarta and I just want to say thanks! Thank you for reaching out to me with your positive feedback and really thoughtful suggestions. First, another great review on iTunes. Those reviews really help me get to word out about Puerto Vallarta so please keep them coming in. Give us a Good Review on iTunes! I got an email from John who is coming in June with his Fiance and he wanted to know what to expect. I talked with our next guest about that subject so John, if you are listening, I have an answer for you coming up soon from our guest, and let’s get to him right now. You know that I’m always asking you my listeners for your suggestions and stories right? Well our next guest did just that. He reached out to me and told me his story and I just had to bring him to you. His name is Steven Tenney and he is from New Jersey. Just love his accent I gotta say. Steven is a musician, he is a drummer for the Group Tequila Rush. Now the Group Tequila Rush   was created in 2015 by Carlos Urrea and Carlos came up with the name, he is the band leader, plays guitar and sings and  Danny Hermosillo who plays the bass and sings as well and Steven rounds out the trio. The group was created  as a trio for clubs and private parties around the bay area and they play year round. They don’t stop for the summer months. They play classic, and contemporary rock as well as wide selection of Spanish lyric Rock to cater to a domestic audience as too. They like to think of themselves as a “Music of your life” kind of group. Both Carlos and Danny are from Guadalajara and live in Puerto Vallarta and although I didn’t get a chance to talk with them, I hope to sit with them when I get into town next month and hear from them what they like to do in and around Puerto Vallarta.  Now Steven is going to come on and tell us a little about some places to go dancing and listen to music and party all along the Bahia de Banderas. And he is going to tell us about some places I didn’t know even existed. I mean, alligator sanctuaries, and fresh water lakes for fishing in Nayarit, near the capitol of Tepic, maybe about 2 hours from Puerto Vallarta.  Many of my listeners have asked for suggestions of places outside of Vallarta, and you will be getting your wish today. Let’s get to the conversation with Steven Tenney, drummer for Tequila Rush, in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico!

NATURAL BEAUTY AND GREAT FOOD AND THE FRUIT TASTES LIKE IT DID WHEN I WAS A KID.

Vi è mai capitato di guardarvi intorno e sentire che ciò che desiderate è lì? La storia di Chiara racconta questo incanto.

Growing up in Rhode Island, Chris Cosentino spent his time clamming, commercial fishing, and cranking the pasta machine in his great-grandmother’s kitchen. He was raised on a cuisine particular to parts of New England where Atlantic seafood, Yankee fare and classic Italian cooking fuse into one colorful gastronomy. Creating good food was a family tradition, as Cosentino’s maternal ancestors, the Eastons, were the founders of Newport’s beloved Easton’s Sausage Company. Today, as executive chef of San Francisco’s Incanto, where he cooks in an earthy rustic Italian style, Cosentino is proving that a penchant for meats may just be hereditary. Cured, raw or roasted; traditional cut or offal, meat is his muse. Yet this meat-loving chef does not ignore produce. California is a giant garden, he says, and indeed, he can be spotted at San Francisco’s Ferry Plaza farmers market every Saturday morning, rain or shine. Cosentino’s formal education took place at Johnson and Wales. Upon graduation, he worked at Mark Miller’s Red Sage in Washington, DC. After Red Sage, Cosentino worked at Kinkead’s before moving to San Francisco to work under Traci des Jardins at Rubicon. He was then tapped by Drew Nieporent to open The Coach House on Martha’s Vineyard. Cosentino returned to California to work briefly at Chez Panisse, as well as the three-star Belon as sous chef, and as a chef/consultant at Michael Mina’s Aqua group, opening Nob Hill in Las Vegas. At Incanto, Cosentino makes his Executive Chef debut. He took over the helm of the one year-old restaurant in 2003, immediately garnering a three-star review from SF Chronicle’s Michael Bauer, the first of many critical accolades. Tune-in for another exciting episode with chef Chris Cosentino! This program has been sponsored by Whole Foods Market. Photo by Abby Ainsworth, acqtaste.com “When I was 14 years old, I lied and worked as a dishwasher at an IHOP. I showed up, and nine hours later, I went home. It was a big eye opener for me.” [7:09] “Know where the food comes from first, before you start a trend and change the world. That’s what Mark Miller taught me.” [23:30] — Chris Cosentino on Chef’s Story

Today's episode of THE FOOD SEEN is an “offaly” good one. Chef Chris Cosentino of Incanto in San Francisco, CA, and proprietor of tasty salted pig parts at Boccalone, joins us to talk low-cuts and guts. His new cookbook, “Beginnings”, is just that, a start to a great meal, as well as part of the bigger conversation, about Chris' past, perseverance, pork, and his contemporary Italian palate. This program has been brought to you by Fairway Market. “You don't have to scream and yell to get someone to eat a [expletive] carrot, but you do have to scream and yell to get someone to eat a cut of meat they aren't familiar with.” — Chris Cosentino on THE FOOD SEEN

Chris Cosentino, chef at San Francisco’s Incanto restaurant, is an offal evangelist. He’s the one people turn to when they have questions about parts of the animal beyond tri-tip and sirloin. Here, he talks about the lost connection between pasture and plate, the ways that both PETA and the USDA have gone off course, and the joys of possum-eatin’. Plus: He escorts us through a full offal dinner.
