In this episode of the Que Bola podcast, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Virginia Otazo, a talented food journalist currently making waves at The Infatuation, one of the most respected food publications in South Florida. We kicked off the conversation by expressing gratitude for the support the podcast has received, emphasizing that this endeavor is driven by passion rather than profit. Virginia shared her journey into the world of food journalism, which began with her background in creative writing. Despite her parents' skepticism about her career choice, she followed her passion and found herself immersed in the restaurant industry. After moving to Washington, D.C., for love, she started working in restaurants, quickly rising through the ranks due to her dedication and love for the craft. Her experiences in various roles, from server to general manager, shaped her understanding of the restaurant business and ultimately led her to her current position at The Infatuation. We delved into the unique approach that The Infatuation takes towards food journalism, highlighting their commitment to honesty and integrity. Virginia explained how they dine anonymously, never accepting freebies or comps, ensuring that their reviews are genuine and trustworthy. This authenticity resonates with readers, as they know they can rely on The Infatuation for honest recommendations. As we explored the cultural significance of food in South Florida, Virginia shared her insights on how food tells stories, reflecting the diverse backgrounds and experiences of the community. We discussed the evolution of Cuban-American cuisine and how it has been shaped by the diaspora, with Virginia drawing parallels between her own experiences and the dishes she encounters. The conversation also touched on the impact of social media on the restaurant industry. Virginia emphasized the importance of genuine connections and how she uses social media to discover new culinary experiences through the eyes of chefs and cooks, rather than just relying on glossy marketing. Throughout the episode, we examined the concept of value in dining experiences, discussing how the atmosphere, service, and overall experience contribute to the worth of a meal. Virginia shared her personal approach to evaluating value, turning it into a fun game with friends to gauge expectations against the final bill. This episode is a deep dive into the world of food journalism, the cultural tapestry of South Florida, and the stories that food tells. Virginia's passion for her craft and her commitment to authenticity shine through, making this conversation not only informative but also inspiring for anyone interested in the culinary arts. Tune in to hear more about Virginia's journey, her insights on the food scene, and the importance of storytelling in food journalism.

Send us a textWhat critical questions should you ask before saying "I do"? With half of all marriages ending in divorce despite everyone believing theirs will last forever, these three game-changing questions could save your relationship from becoming another statistic.The marriage journey transforms us in ways we never anticipate. The first essential question recognizes this reality: "Can you handle me changing?" That vibrant 23-year-old you fell in love with will inevitably become a different person at 43 and 63. Many of us marry an image rather than a real person—attracted to their current appearance, ambitions, or how they make us feel—without considering the transformation that decades bring. Whether it's physical changes after children, shifting career goals, or evolving priorities, marriage requires love that transcends these natural evolutions.Equally important is the counterpoint: "Can you handle me not changing?" We often enter marriage with a subconscious desire to mold our partner into versions of ourselves. That spouse who struggles with punctuality, plays video games excessively, or approaches finances differently may never fundamentally change these traits. Before marriage, become a "fruit inspector"—carefully examining consistent patterns and honestly asking if you can accept those unchangeable aspects for a lifetime. Many relationships deteriorate because one spouse continuously pressures the other to become someone they're not designed to be.Finally, ask: "Will you love me when you don't like me?" Every marriage experiences seasons where affection wanes and irritation grows, yet commitment must remain. Many couples mistake the temporary butterflies of the infatuation stage (typically lasting three months to three years) for the foundation of marriage. Real love chooses connection even during difficult seasons and finds ways to rebuild fondness through intentional efforts.These questions highlight why physical intimacy before marriage can cloud judgment about fundamental compatibility issues. The emotional bonds created through sex often lead people to overlook critical differences that become relationship-breaking problems after marriage.Take time to honestly explore these three questions with your partner. Your willingness to face these realities now could make the difference between a marriage that thrives through decades of change and one that joins the sobering divorce statistics.GET THE BETTER MARRIAGE BOOTCAMP HERE:Better Marriage Bootcamp (kenandtabatha.com)Better Marriage 90-Day Devotional:90 Day Better Marriage Devotional - Ken and Tabatha (square.site)DOWNLOAD THE FAMILY MEETING OUTLINE HERE ⬇️https://www.kenandtabatha.com/pl/2148103888Support Our Ministry: https://myalivechurch.org/giveConnect with us:- Website:https://www.kenclaytor.comhttps://www.tabathaclaytor.comhttps://www.myalivechurch.org- Socials:Instagram -https://www.instagram.com/kenclaytor/https://www.instagram.com/tabathaclaytor/https://www.instagram.com/myalivechurch/TikTok-@Ken_Claytor@Tabathaclaytor@myalivechurchFacebook-https://www.facebook.com/PastorKenClaytorhttps://www.facebook.com/pastortabathaclaytorhttps://www.facebook.com/myalivechurch- Ask us questions: info@kenandtabatha.com

Love isn't just a feeling, it's a pattern. And patterns, when understood, can be changed. We are the descendants of beings who bonded, lusted, and survived—not by chance, but by biology. In this episode, we explore the elegant architecture of love, divided into three distinct experiences: lust, attraction, and attachment. Each has its own hormonal symphony: testosterone's drive, dopamine's thrill, oxytocin's warmth. But these chemicals, while essential, are not our destiny. We must choose how we respond to them. The opportunity lies in seeing love not just as passion, but as a practice—a practice of self-awareness, empathy, and intentionality. Reframe love from chaos to conscious experience. Observe your emotions without becoming them. Build connection that outlasts dopamine spikes. Your biology is the system, but your awareness can evolve it. UPGRADE to Premium:

Let me know your thoughts about the podcast. Thank you for listening!What does it truly mean to love someone? Most of us think we know, yet our relationships often falter because we're operating from completely different definitions. Distinguishing genuine love from mere infatuation could be the most important relationship skill you'll ever develop.Love, at its essence, means wanting to give without expectation of return. Infatuation, however, is that intoxicating chemical reaction that clouds judgment and makes us pursue someone primarily for our own satisfaction. Think about those post-divorce moments when people wonder, "What was I thinking when I married this person?" The answer is simple—they weren't thinking clearly because they were infatuated.True love develops when we invest ourselves emotionally—sharing our vulnerability, time, and attention. This explains why emotionally unavailable people struggle with relationships and why material gifts often compensate for emotional distance. Before investing your heart, take time to heal from past wounds and define what love means to both you and your potential partner. The willingness to be vulnerable—to truly open your heart—may be uncomfortable, but it's the foundation of any meaningful relationship. Are you ready to move beyond infatuation and experience genuine love?
Welcome back to Mise en Place, where this week we sit down with Taco Manny at his spot Guacamoles. Manny is a Mexican refugee who fled death threats for a cartel and rebuilt his life in London—one taco at a time. With just £70, he launched a pop-up that made £3,000 in 15 days, all of which he donated to his church. Now, his tacos are celebrated as the best in London, with both The Financial Times and The Infatuation crowning his food as the city's finest Mexican offering.Manny shares how his family's culinary heritage shaped his approach and why authenticity is at the heart of everything he makes. He talks about the struggle to source proper ingredients in the UK, his mission to recreate true barbacoa, the 17 spices that make his birria taste exactly like home and his ongoing quest to find intestines for the tripe tacos he misses from home. He also reflects on his spiritual awakening, overcoming addiction and loss, and how his faith has guided his journey.His reputation skyrocketed after Jonathan Nunn put Guacamoles on the map not long after it opened, and since then, he's cooked for everyone from actors to the Mexican ambassador in the UK. Now, as demand for his tacos continues to soar, he's setting his sights on expansion.From cartel threats to culinary success, this is a story of resilience, faith, and the power of truly great food.

Human beings show a range of emotional attachment, affection, and infatuation often referred to as “love”. Love promotes long-lasting and secure relationships that involve nurturing and support. Biological mechanisms underlying such behavior involve ancient neuropeptides and their receptors in the brain. These systems are also involved in reproduction, ranging from mating and pair-bonding, to giving birth and lactation. They shape the earliest experiences of all mammals and their mothers. The concept of love and how we experience it are affected by culture and its diverse societal norms. This symposium will explore the evolutionary roots of human love, compare human love to corresponding emotions in other animals, consider human conditions that prevent the expression of such feelings, and examine the key role of love and affection for our development and daily lives.

Human fathers exhibit hormonal shifts in testosterone, prolactin, and oxytocin, enabling flexible responses to parenting. In species with costly paternal care, these shifts balance mating and parenting efforts, suggesting evolved neuroendocrine capacities that support fatherhood. Today, fathers collaborate with mothers worldwide, though their roles vary across cultures and family systems, much as they likely did evolutionarily. Using research from the Philippines, Congo-Brazzaville, and the U.S., alongside cross-cultural data, this talk examines how men's hormonal physiology adapts to parenthood and influences family behaviors and bonds within diverse ecological and cultural contexts.

The titi and owl monkeys of South America live in socially-monogamous groups where the male and female establish a pair bond and share parental duties. Why do males of these species mate in a monogamous relationship presumably foregoing other reproductive opportunities? And why are titi and owl monkey males such good fathers, investing heavily in the care of offspring that they cannot be certain they sired? Relying on ecological, behavioral and genetic data collected during 28 years from wild populations in Argentina, Peru and Ecuador. This lecture will discuss the role of food distribution, mate guarding and infant care in the evolution of pair-bonds, monogamy and paternal care.

Grandmothers play a key role as alloparents in human families. A leading hypothesis suggests that the inclusive fitness benefits of grandmaternal care selected for an extended female lifespan after reproduction, a unique trait among primates. Beyond lifespan extension, grandmothers may have biological adaptations for caregiving. Research from our lab shows grandmothers have lower DNA methylation of the oxytocin receptor gene (OXTR) compared to non-grandmothers, with lower methylation linked to stronger bonds with grandchildren. MRI scans reveal grandmothers have a lower brain age than controls, further reduced among those with higher engagement. These findings suggest grandmotherhood may enhance oxytocin signaling, promoting bonding and slowing brain aging.

Close relationships help us shape both our other social interactions as well as our internal physiology. Do these close relationships, also known as pair bonds, look and function similarly in species as diverse as titi monkeys, prairie voles, seahorses, and humans? How do negative experiences such as loss factor into, and perhaps strengthen, our close relationships? And what do we mean by luminance?

Dr. Theofanopoulou studies neural circuits behind sensory-motor behaviors like speech and dance, aiming to develop drug- and arts-based therapies for brain disorders. Her brain imaging research reveals overlapping motor cortex regions controlling muscles for speech and dance, while transcriptomic studies show upregulation of the oxytocin gene pathway in key areas like the motor cortex and brainstem. Using zebra finches, Bengalese finches, white-rumped munias, and humans, she demonstrates oxytocin's role in vocal production. She also developed genomic tools to apply these findings across vertebrates. Her future work explores oxytocin-based drugs and dance therapies to treat speech and motor deficits in brain disorders.

We finally made it to Jordan Kahn's Vespertine in Culver City, which reopened after a hiatus in the Spring of 2024, and earned not one but two Michelin Stars just a few months later. If you've heard people talk about VesperVespertineine, then you know that it elicits strong reactions. Some people can't get enough of Chef Kahn's otherworldly creations, with Michelin describing his food as “visually stunning” and “daringly inventive.” Others, however, walk away deeply confounded, scratching their heads like entire world in the wake of the Luka Doncic trade. I believe the Infatuation called it “unpleasant to consume.” But what did Father Sal and I think of the experience? Listen to find out as we walk you through our entire journey in our trademark, frankly psychotic fashion.
