On this week's episode of L.A. TACO Live with Laura we are joined by writer and podcaster Erick Galindo. We talk to Erick about all his incredible projects including his bilingual podcast, The Ballad of Chalino Sanchez. We also chat about how his New York Times piece about his hometown of Downey is now becoming a family comedy called Mexican Beverly Hills on CBS. We also chat with Elmer Argueta who works behind-the-scenes for L.A. TACO's social media accounts. We get to know more about Elmer and his start in the business. L.A. TACO reporter Mike Ade also stopped by the studio to talk about the cargo thefts in L.A.'s Northeast train tracks and how he saw the train derail first hand. We also have a special beer tasting with L.A. TACO reporter and professor, Melissa Mora Hidalgo AKA Dr. Beer Butch. We talk about Whittier's latest brewery, La Bodega and taste some of her favorite beers!
