Walker today with a painting that I made I'm also a caterer with my company Z eats and I just love art and I love food and I love everything about them and so I found a way to merge both my loves into what I'm calling pop-up Street Cape Cod which will feature local artists and local chefs to you know promote their products get to know the local community so um you did eforall you did that for your fashion brand yes I did eforall for my fashion you were um eforall has this space in the mash P comons which I believe that you got to be for yeah that's amazing it was amazing MH Commons is so gorgeous and just the Ambiance of the place is lovely um so you did that experience and then you didn't just rest on now I've got my own fashion brands now my got my own this if you'll notice Jonathan Thompson is now joining us on the show today good morning headphones microphone you're ready to go so zav is talking about her brand new pop-up Street Cap Cod which I saw PS Cape Cod come through my mailbox and I was like how flipping cute is that for a brand I like that right good morning so you're finally ready to launch you've been kind of putting all these fabulous interests together you've got art and you've got fashion and you've got food and you've got this community and now you're like okay well we're going to roll all this together and all of your because you are another person that is continually educating themselves I appreciate that with growth comes a little change pretty much all the time yeah definitely yeah talk about your popup so the popups for me when I just came to the cape it was really hard to you know navigate the space as an artist I couldn't get my my products in stores I didn't know you know where to go and so it was hard for me and I did it and I would love to help others to you know not have that the difficulty or the level of difficulty that I had while trying to you know get to know the community and put my art out into the community and so popup street is going to be a space for artists to come introduce their products to the community and you know connect with the community in this way build an audience and you know get to test their products on the market in an intimate immersive way I think that's amazing that you're kind of taking the sting out of throwing yourself out there to the community because it's kind of a safe space for an artist to come that's already like I did all the heavy lifting for you guys just show up and shine which is really nice exactly you've got your first event coming up yes so my first event is going to be on April 6 it's going to be 278 hyanis Main Street from 2: p.m. to 6: p.m. it's going to be awesome we're going to have an artist doing live live drawing of the guests hug and we're going to have a mixture of food desserts then we're going to have fashion we're going to have jewelry we're going to have uh belonging books with some art and food books I'm excited about that and we're going to have eeper all there recruiting uh artists and business owners for the accelerator program you know so that they can get that uh foundational educational part of it definitely yeah I know April 6 mark it on your calendar write it down local chefs food vendors artists Artisans what time again 2 to 6 6m perfect I get done with my other event at one o'clock look JT and I always stack in our days hold on I want I want us everybody else to be able to you've got a few other events that are happening as far as talk to me about the blind food tasting thing oh my God amazing so the blind food tasting is it's kind of like a surprise menu okay and so you're GNA sign up for this event not knowing what the food will be until you get there however if there is you know you're glutenfree or dairy free or anything like that then you can send us an email and then we'll tell you beforehand what it is or if it is for you know gluten-free or dairy free people who have allergies and then some of the blind food tasting will be you'll have like a gluten-free night or a darree night or vegan night because we love food and we love Global flavors yeah oh we desperately need that around here honestly some flavor please thank you yeah you don't get a body like this without testing food you look really good right now shut up app aider vinegar I also want to mention so I've been approached by artists all the time wanting to know how can I get my art onto clothing like you do because you know at the beginning of the show I told you that I painted this thing here and then I got it onto clothing so popup Street Cape Cod is having a workshop all the way in June so people have time to prepare and save for it where we're going to show artists step by step how to get your art from Canvas OR paper or photograph onto clothing using the Drop Shipping model so no investing in inventory way easier and you just focus on being creative yeah because there is that stress of having a box full of your merchandise in your car while you're driving around the think my God if you could just drop ship it and take that off of your plate that really does someone else ships it someone else handles everything for you when you just promote and focus on your art yeah yeah exactly and I think artists need more of these you've got some Sip and paints that are organizing as well and uh definitely just check out her website popup Street Cape Cod if you're looking to organize an event which zie you and I are going to be talking because we've got our Mash P farmers market that I'm I'm getting ready to announce Farmers Market I I just talking about yesterday I know I went to the farmers market conference yesterday with the other I right I was in Framingham yesterday with the farmers hilarious so I'm also in the same pursuit of reaching out Community Gathering the people and showcasing what people are good at and where they are where they are in their life so I'm super excited to be able to work with you zavia and maybe have a popup Street Cape Cod at one of our markets we would love to have you organize that because it's just food it's Community it's the things that we desperately need and uh I I'm so thrilled to have you launch this and we'll uh we'll all be there supporting you so let's do it I'll be there yeah rtb says hello JT all so good morning good morning good morning Mari um anything you want to leave us with zavia before you go uh I think I just want to say that we are much better together when we work together as a community and I would just love for the local community to come out and support the artists in this way because you know being an artist and teaching and doing all these different kind of things that artists have to do in order to pay their bills or to go on vacation it's really hard and if they just get some more support I think that would help in a big way 100% we're not sitting here with 401ks and getting planning for our retirement we're always working it's what an artist does Lisa says those arti those farmers are still talking uh Nathan JT my man good morning good morning Danielle says hello and good luck everyone hey cam what's going on DAV we are really pumped for Popup Street Cape Cod so be looking for you we can how do we support you do we follow you is there on social media at popup Street Cape Cod or website is popup Street capecod.com and you can always email us info popup stre capecod.com Marie says hello everyone and Lisa said come talk to the Cape Cod Children's Museum they would love to have you organize an event oh my go so definitely definitely this is where Community meets everybody and we're really excited for it saav we'll talk to you soon thank you for having me bye oh she's fabulous that is awesome I know I walked at the right time well I'm really excited for the food portion right now I'm working on it yeah so yesterday I was in Framingham working with all the farmers markets across Massachusetts and talking about food insecurities and SNAP benefits and hip benefits and this and what are we going to have for this and you everyone was so excited to have mashpi there because I don't know if you know that mashpi is a food desert I do not know was food Des I never heard the word food Des right I've never heard the word before so I was like wow then tell me more we don't have have a functioning Farm in Mash B are you serious yeah we have one small little Farm Stand but we don't have a fully functioning Farm in Mash P that almost makes no sense to me like I feel like that's a lie right right I feel like the N the the the wamp and ogs I'm sure have farming land but it's not an organized Farm okay what about mean that's open to other people yeah what about is no that's Falmouth that's Falmouth that's fouth that's right that makes no sense it's it's wild to me so we desperately need some other food options so uh we we have taken up this space and we're really excited to launch it this year we understand this is our first year and everybody out there understand that this is our first year so we're working through a lot right you know I was what I was talking about yesterday what's up Sunny good morning Sunny um what I was talking about yesterday to my cousin they used to be the farmers market in hyas on on Main Street right at the church like on Wednesdays between like I think it was like 11: to like 2 or three or something like that where did that go I don't know I don't know right now uh Province Town is doing a really good job sustainable Cape is doing an awesome job Provincetown Truro they've got their markets fully functioning we've had a nice winter Market over here in Falmouth yeah uh that's done a really nice job over at St Barnabas but nothing in the middle so I feel like that this just needs to to come to us and we need to find where food is because I mean if you can get actually sourced produce and you can use your snap and hit benefits for these things we need to start eating better and taking care of ourselves oh listen I I will see a food market I will buy if I see something that's local and and you know from table to you know from Farm to Table like I love that yeah and we have to get away from this and we we had a good laugh about it but I mean sometimes they can be um a little bit daunting to people it's not all artisanal cheeses it's more just eating healthier for your lifestyle and having it available what's up Sandy hey Dave thank you for joining us on the show hey Miss Bri I'll get back to

specifically beautiful and with our Mash B farmers market and working with the full community to make sure people are fed we're getting better healthier options that's what we need I know really really I know working with Jenny wheeler Over The Family Table collaborative I got to um showcase her entire trip her in Mary O'Keefe just went to Africa I heard Amsterdam and they um you know just learning some food practices she got to go cook with her nanas which she wants to do her new cookbook is coming out with uh her cooking with Grandma's and just tradition preserving some food traditions recipes I miss I wish that we knew some of the stuff my grandma used to make and it's like she's from Barbados and it's like certain meals like the way she made them and it's the way you like there's something called CC and it's like there's cornmeal and then there's salmon but it's the way you have to like grind the cornmeal certain way which is really hard work yeah to do that cuz it has to dried out but not too dry right and then it's a salon and there onions and way to put the stuff on it and it's lemon um my mother had someone she went back to Barbados and uh somebody brought it to her hotel that knew she was looking for and she's she go I had crying so tast um because there's so much love there's so much time there's so much preparedness that goes into making these dishes and we as a society are just so busy and so Zip Zip AI all this next next next throw it away it doesn't work anymore that we really do need to just slow down absolutely um so JT's Chronicles my nonprofit and um setting the tone so what we actually do is we start off from going from one end of the cape to the next all during the summertime go to different businesses every um weekend and we want to make people's life a little bit better so I might meet Stephanie somewhere I don't know you and um I like oh Stephanie where you from like I'm from adbor like okay what's that one thing that you want for your family your friends for your community in every they could say Okay I want more I want more peace for you know for my husband and I for my kids like you know and we write stuff on this board with big vision board and then we put it out there because closed mouths don't get fed so we say nothing nothing happens and then we want to bring that energy to community to people and they leave here feeling like so much better and then when people donate at the end of the summer we have a big party for the kids so it'll be a big one this year where it'll be music there will be giveaway it'll just be setting the tone for a great school year nice and that's what it's all about y so positivity in your school conversations that you're having with our community our kids need to be seen constant and excuse me I went to a white ribbon day um in an oriens Police Department the other day and it's like that the white ribbon day is all about um you taking a pledge to stop violence to protect one another to um excuse me love those allergies um uh sex trafficking all these things like you need to be aware of these things and talk to the kids and like be social make the kids like understand like there's more good going on like we need to like work together yeah don't be afraid to say something the kids see something all sudden they want to take their phone out and start recording like no D like you should be helping right you know don't just videotaping because these kids are becoming desensitized because they see so much crap on on social media all day like oh I saw that before Oh I saw that before I've seen that oh yeah nothing shocks them that's the problem so if you have if you you're becoming desensitized nothing shocks you that's the problem because your emotions are just tied up and it's like and it's like it's not good and that's why like these my my young men also you have to learn how to get that emotion out and like stop holding on to things and just like you keep compounding because like Society tells you oh you can't cry you can't do this and you got Tough Enough got tough up for this and like dude no you have I think that you're really good at showing vulner ability and showing our our youth that it's okay to be a little bit vulnerable sometimes because you can't stack it all away right thank you and that's and that's why and I get these messages I've gotten calls I got letters from other schools and kids when I when I spoke at their classes and it's like I wish you can come back or thanks the bullies the bullies weren't mean to us after you left like the whole week was awesome I'm like what and these like kids writing them the principal writing yeah and the secret like and kids that had other issues other kids were actually helping them like when I was in fam one day yeah last year and they actually there's a CH one kid that just when they get upset they just want to take off and yeah the kid the kids pulled them back good and they were like no no no no I I'm not gonna say her name but they reached out and like helped her calm down and come back in I got a text from one of the teachers and secretaries that day to like we were talking about that yeah about protecting each other yeah you have to you don't know what these kids are going through you have no idea and unfortunately it seems to a lot right now I think that yeah that initial cool down period is also a good space give it a minute but you have to go back in and have those conversations with these kids and I think a lot of people are just opting because we are so glued to our phones and devices not to have actual conversations with people I think we're kind of losing that conversation a lot and I'm excited that you're going in and having those talks with the kids so that they learn how to talk to each other right in the more sponsors we get so we'll do it like summer school's like we don't you know our budg I'm like already taken care of I done places and and I was like and understand stop pretending that your school doesn't have any issues stop pretending that it's like oh we're pretty good over here no you're not no no one's no one's pretty good right now need to talk to everybody you guys keep sweeping under the rug like there's nothing going on and that's a problem that's why because nobody's held accountable for anything and a lot of parents aren't holding their kids accountable it's hard to deal with and when you don't know what to do with it you usually just walk over it you know what I mean like oh I'll deal with that later well it's a there's a whole lot of deal with it later yeah then you got go which one are you dealing with you just put you just push about 20 back there Rick Buress I learned to never dig up the sand in the volleyball court at parf for belly you never know what you'd find no you shouldn't no you shouldn't Megan goes I forgot about that volleyball court those are the good old days right

first round of uh funding this weekend okay they have not they they revamp the whole system and nobody got any financial aid this year they haven't figured it out what so we have no idea we've got all these acceptance letters to college but we have no idea where we're going because we have no idea how much money we're going to be getting for financial aid and we have no way to plan for this because who in this day and age is going to pick a university college or and or otherwise without knowing how much money you're going to be paying for it you would be crazy and if you AB or maybe you're just so opulent it doesn't matter to you yeah over here in the Working World I'm like you can't even make your decisions for your life right now because you have no idea what you're going to get for funding no um I got a crazy idea yeah stop charging us to go to school that would be amazing I know fores is definitely working on it Cape C Community College shout out to all of our students over there we've got students day every other week you just popped over and saw your little Alma did I liked it I did Nathan what's happened to man I did like all that um nobody should be paying for school because I'm you're paying for school and you getting all this debt and then half of most of these kids leave and then they go they have to start working and something that they might not want to be but they got to paid some money got P tuition back it's a nasty Circle I know I know it's a nasty Circle I'm and so right now the Educational Department botched the favs of roll out F oh my God nobody

in this Loop of figuring out how to justify their presence at these universities when their classes aren't as full as they should be because people can't pay for them so then they're not doing what they can do also the money there's money there y'all just need to just change where it's going right because well this money is allocated for this you know what you can do it because I've seen money

best Greek chicken salad you've ever had in your entire life horrible I don't know what honestly I'm GNA do 22 years of business they've been in and now they're saying that they're basically doing something with that gross parking lot that they're in uh to be fair it is a gross parking lot that they're in but that has been your B building forever they could they could make whoever owns I don't know who owns but I'm like I see places and I feel like if you have a place that you don't know what you're going to do with yet and you own the building you should at least keep it improvements to the building that it's already in no we're just going to tear it down and build a strip mall because that's what we need in hyas yeah we need another strip mall for what reason I do not know to have empty stores that people can rent for exorbitant amounts of money I'm over this model I heard something different I heard the prices went up and a lot of stuff and I'm like you can't so 22 years this family business has been in and now they have to go and they don't have another place that they can find yet no they don't and and that's that it's crazy because I'm like how do you just jack up like People's rent and property and all and I understand that people need to make money off of the things that they have but honestly I don't feel as if that was a situation that I don't I'm like fixed they're so nice over there I always we get like the Caesar salads and this that I'm like everything it's crazy I know C the grilled chicken Greek salad is honestly one of the best things of life oh my God I will be I will miss it I don't know how long that before they're closing but they're closing yeah 22 years of business I know so get it done uh Tom thanks for joining us on the show Tom's running for office he's sick of the way things are operating so he's taking it upon himself how was the zba board meeting this week I hope things went well for you I don't know I just saw some new drawings circulating the internet we do have a housing issue and it needs to be addressed but uh uh I'm not GNA get political no we would we support you in your cause I I'm all for anybody and i' I've always said this this is my thing um either you're part of the problem or you're part of the solution so which one are you I know to to like I said I don't want a thousand meetings just but you and I are both of a fix it mentality like let's fix it instead of causing more problems fat but the problem is I feel like we're so spread apart and where we're coming into the middle anymore I think people don't want to give an inch because they feel like giving an inch is giving up and I feel like it's such a bad mentality to have when you're not working for the better greater space of it all the collaborative if you will so divided right now and I hate that it's it is it's it's ugly I can't believe we actually even talking about this right now well it's important it's affecting us I mean it's affecting a lot of people that because that specific situation in Falmouth which by the way Falmouth you're getting an Aldi they're putting it in the Christmas Tree Shop I they really yes I feel like it's a good mix of Christmas tree shop and grocery store how many times have you gone to an Aldi and left there with no groceries what what is what is Aldi so it's like a cheapy grocery store so they've got awesome my kids love their frozen pizza okay um but then they also have a Christmas tree shop like segment in the middle that has like umbrellas and slippers and I did not know of this place pullovers and a pizza oven brick thing like it's the most random of grocery stores I I sound like I feel like you're telling me about that gas station that's on the highway what's it called Chuck a big Chuckies or something like that yes bies bies it's exactly like a bies oh my God yes I walked out of there with a get out hat which is like the big you know what I'm talking about Alicia has a the kids have a picture of me yeah the big like Farmers Buck hat yeah it's huge and uh and I had some sunglasses I got a tank top I got you know when I knew the cape was changing when I was at 7-Eleven back in the day and I walked in and I could buy a T-shirt and a belt in some shoes I'm like what is this this is a gas station right that wasn't even a that was a 7-Eleven no gas station that was one was on North Street oh right that's all caged up now like a WWF thing what is going on there looks so gross what's going on at before you get to the um at the end of Main Street on the left hand side before you get to the rotary there was a beautiful like little like grassy area yeah and now there's like something going on they're building so if you at the where the Westend rotary is yeah and then you're hitting on to Main stre on South Street on the right before you get to oh yeah you it used to be like a huge grass area yeah what is that there's something going on I saw like anybody in the bid want to jump in and let us know what the heck is going on in that grassy null area that used to be grassy null we want to know grassy n yes yes Mom and cow look beautiful when they go out they always look good I love them Mark Tom we need a gay bar on the cape there so that you can DJ at Mark you don't even live on a cape quiet Al Aldi is fun bies is an amazing chain clean thank you Mr yes so I think that that is a a good call for what ald is if you want to see one in its Glory there is one right in weham right near where him crossing right when I go they can go check it out over there I will go I feel like I mean I made I made a trip to go to popyes I don't know why I can't make a trip to go to right ex go in there you have to bag your own groceries you have to check in your own groceries really yep interesting you have toay pay 25 cents to get your grocery cart out of there you get it back after you're done with it it's just so that you're putting the grocery cart back oh this is how they save the money they don't have the peoples you're doing all of the work for yourself and so need great prices yes I like this and most random things in the middle of the store

best prob I'm putting an order in right now for the uh for the oatmeal raisin and the chocolate chip cookies the on that you made um I would like some of those I don't need those cookies but I would like them well the diet like oh because they have oatmeal in them yeah and that's like breakfasty healthy stuff I like the way you think I like how you think a lot Vana yeah that was a great party uh Vanna is so awesome she's so talented lovely family a love them M's awesome they really are awesome and I can't believe Vanna is only 17 she is such an incredible music talent and I cannot wait to see what she does yeah she was here before in the past life I don't know what that girl just like y several of them oh oh a few and uh funus was killing it so good was a good night um everybody was really good um and since we're talking about music um we need to definitely give a little rest in peace yeah that is wild Paul Nelson if you guys don't know Paul is an incredible guitarist um Grammy award-winning guitarists yeah I mean he's played with people like Eric Clapton also I mean like T has like such an incredible like Legacy he was really just such a great mentor and Champion to so many musicians here on the cape and uh his presence will definitely be missed yeah uh it is definitely avoid in a lot of our musical um Avenues and all of our our people that are out there gigging hustling and just doing what they can for their craft and uh super sad very sad um I saw Paul play at the music room um one night uh he was his band was playing and I just sat there I'm just watching him and he called me like uh the next day like he sent me a text he goes dude I got to thank you for what you said and I'm like what did I say because I was talking about him I didn't realize that there's a camera behind me oh recording so I had no idea and I'm like Paul's just different I'm like I'm watching him and I'm watching his fingers I'm just listening and I'm like you watching the face like when an artist is into their craft whether it's painting whether it's making clothes or anything baking whatever it is like they're different because you can see there's a whole different person about them it's an outof body experience for them also yes and it took me out and all of us and I'm like dude this guy is just different like like and I'm like he's just making that thing you see people have sing like they're making it sing or they're making like that's Paul yeah his fingers is artist like just the thing his mind and it's like you can just see his eyes and like it's it's almost like REM when we're sleeping you can see the eyes moving on it's that's why I feel like I'm watching P like dud where is he yeah where is this dude right now right because he becomes the music and that's that's really really it's gonna be missed it really will be truly an amazing blues guitarist for sure absolutely um Holly says not diet like yeah listen cookies are cookies and cookies are great so thank you you let us deal with the diet part you just make the cookies um yeah uh I don't know how how old was Paul not old enough not old enough man I need to be like 100 I need to be like 100 I mean stress and touring and I feel like just the lifestyle in which a musician and an artist lives in uh because they are always hustling moving shaking things going on is not conducive to to living long lives uh so right and I'm sure he's under a tremendous amount of stress given everything that he's been going through so we just I'm yeah and sending love and hugs um to his wife oh my God absolutely um he played on recorded alongside Eric Clapton Buddy Guy members of the Almond Brothers Band um he was born in New York Manhattan I didn't know that he went to college in Boston though he went to Berkeley yep and uh he's was top like I'm like J John I'm not talking about that oh boy we we whatever Stephanie say we're not talking about that we're not talking about that we are not talking about
