BRK THT BRD

In today’s episode of BRK THT BRD podcast, hosts Jeremy McBryde and Seth Brundle interview Rick Garzon. Garzon is a marketing professional turned art gallery owner with a passion for food. We begin by discussing Garzon's background, including his time in advertising and his decision to open an art gallery in Inglewood. We switch it up a bit to prepare Garzon's "struggle meal" early,  a “This Aint No Damn Chipotle Burrito.” Jeremy surprises Rick with an elevated version of his favorite burrito, prepared by Chef Seth Brundle.  A chuck and short rib barbacoa, roasted green and red peppers, charred corn, cilantro lime rice, all in jack cheese melted burrito wrap with a chow chow pickle, black lime guacamole and honey habenero crema fresh for garnish. Damn. We wrap up our interview with a discussion of Garzon's art gallery in sunny Inglewood, CA and his advice for aspiring artists. Garzon emphasizes the importance of having a strong understanding of one's artistic influences and being able to articulate one's creative vision. He also stresses the importance of community support and perseverance in the face of challenges. Thanks for watching!
