Hispanic Heritage month, which starts today and goes until October 15th, celebrates the history and culture of the country's Latino and Hispanic communities and how they have contributed to American society. September 15th was chosen as the starting point for the commemoration because it is the anniversary of the independence of five Hispanic countries. Jaime Zabala, Founder and President of the Latin American Alliance, Noelia Torres, Public Relations Director of Danza Fiesta, and Meredith Klein, Director of the Philadelphia Argentine Tango School, join us to provide some insight on the Latin American community and their upcoming event, the Latin American festival, which takes place Saturday at 11:30 a.m. in New Holland. The festival aims to bring together twenty one Latin American countries and present, to the local non-Hispanic community, their heritage and traditions through music, dance, and food. "Music, it is in our blood," Zabala said. "I think it's even more prominent among the Hispanic countries; music, big gatherings, and food... They all speak of our roots, heritage, and traditions." Klein said, the best way to celebrate Hispanic Heritage month is to get outside of your comfort zone and learn about the culture. "Hispanic Heritage Month is a great opportunity to say, I'm going to do things outside my bubble," Klein said. "I'm going to go see dance performances, listen to music, try something new that I might not interact with otherwise. And I really believe that those unexpected connections and the things that push us out of our habitual patterns of living and thought, are what keep bringing us into contact with the moment and making our lives richer."

The Tiger Lillies is an Olivier Award-winning and Grammy-nominated musical trio with more than thirty years of success around the world as a live band, as recording artists and as part of several theatre productions, including the Olivier Award-winning Shockheaded Peter on the West End. Their latest collaboration is with visual director Mark Holthusen and writer Peder Bjurman on a story set along the Mexican border, Corrido de la Sangre, which will be performed as part of the ¡Viva! Spanish and Latin American Festival 2018 at HOME Manchester. In this episode, BTG editor David Chadderton speaks to two thirds of the Tiger Lillies, Martin Jacques and Adrian Stout, about the new show and also about the joys and the problems of being uncategorisable outsiders, what it means to be genuinely 'alternative', the way the look and the sound of the band were carefully conceived and have evolved and some other projects currently in development or on the horizon. Corrido de la Sangre featuring The Tiger Lillies will be performed at HOME Manchester from 20 April to 5 May 2018 as part of the ¡Viva! Spanish and Latin American Festival. They will perform Poe’s Haunted Palace at London’s Queen Elizabeth Hall from 28 to 30 August 2018.
In this episode we are focusing on David Yermanos, owner of Get Fit Foods, a new healthy lifestyle grab-and-go meals concept in Charlotte, NC. David is a serial entrepreneur and a GM with a high end entertainment concept and decided to start this venture when he could not find this meal prep niche being serviced in this manner. Since 2003, David has been in the event promotions and marketing industry, working closely with Charlotte venues and international artists to bring the Latin American Festival to the city. He has been a GM and owner in the hospitality industry since 2011 and has successfully helped a multi-million dollar corporation grow in several markets. IN THIS EPISODE David talks about how he came up with his healthy meals concept David talks about how important timing is in entering a market He states that the healthy food concept has not caught up with the healthy lifestyles and gyms that have been growing here He talks about why he chose the Ballantyne location as their initial grab and go location and discusses how the food is chef-driven and prepared fresh daily David notes that a business that caters to saving time and gives good nutrition is a great space to be in for a new business We talk about how David has a day job and started this "side hustle" David talks about how he didn't really have fear when starting this business because he was purpose-driven rather than money-driven David discusses the concept of growing within, in order to find your true passion in life He says that organized knowledge works and that is how one should approach a new business He talks about how important social media and customer service are
