Episode 27: From the Bay to LA with Nico Blitz
In this episode we interview Filipino American DJ, host, MC, and producer, Nico Blitz. Some of you may know him as the DJ from Twitch and Tik Tok as he is a Twitch Partner and streaming DJ. He created and hosts the Lunch Table series on YouTube, is a DJ and Producer for the BootlegKevShow, as well as a host for Myxglobal. He has two podcasts out, @NicoBlitzPodcast and @MexipinoPodcast. In this episode we have a special guest co-hosting. Her name is Shannin and she is an up and coming Filipina DJ in the Bay Area. Shannin and Salena sat down with Nico to discuss everything from the growth of his career in radio, streaming and content creation, to his family, music and DJing, as well as food and culture. We are truly inspired by Nico’s story and we hope this episode brings inspiration to you as well. Enjoy!
