About Silo118.com
Silo118 art gallery got its start in 2016 on the ground floor of a historic feeder silo in Santa Barbara’s Funk Zone. 
The silo was built in the late 1940s to supply flour for the Weber Bread factory which was in business from the late 1940s through the mid-1970s.
After the bread factory shut down, the silo lay empty for decades, until it was refurbished (somewhat) in the early 2000s.
In 2016 Bonnie Rubenstein was given the opportunity to run an art gallery and moved from the east coast.
She called it Silo118 for the obvious reasons - reflecting both the iconic grain silo in the middle of a town and the address on the street where the silo lives.
In 2018 the online version of Silo118 became the sole entity of the gallery until November 2021, when Rubenstein re-opened the brick-and-mortar in the same iconic silo with new and familiar artists and a Kids’ Corner.

SN10|Ep521 - David Leaf | Author, Director, Producer, Brian Wilson’s Friend, The Beach Boys

*This special episode is dedicated to two "Girls Next Door" - Christine McVie and Robin Kaplin
My Very Special Guest Today is David Leaf - Here to talk about his book and his friendship with The Beach Boys' Brian Wilson.
About “God Only Knows: The Story of Brian Wilson, the Beach Boys & the California Myth”
Originally published in 1978 as The Beach Boys and the California Myth, this groundbreaking study was both the first full-length book on the band and the first to recognize Brian Wilson as one of the most significant and influential artists of the 20th century.
Covering the turbulent family strife and internal conflicts as well as giving proper attention to the remarkable music, the book was an instant classic.
An intimate look at Brian’s rollercoaster of a life and career, it’s told through the eyes of those who were there during Wilson’s most legendary productions including Pet Sounds and Good Vibrations.
Revised and updated, God Only Knows covers the decades since the 1985 edition, including Brian’s first acclaimed solo album, his startling return to live performing, the landmark Pet Sounds tour, the All-Star Tribute to Brian Wilson (which David Leaf wrote and produced), and the triumphant and miraculous Brian Wilson Presents SMiLE world premiere in London.
Filled with surprising revelations, insight, and behind-the-scenes detail, this indispensable book written by renowned Brian Wilson expert David Leaf also features forewords by the Bee Gees’ Barry Gibb and Melinda Wilson and Paul McCartney.
Trusted by Icons.
He is a consummate storyteller. Whether it’s a screenplay, documentary, television special, book, producing or hosting an event, storytelling is at the heart of David Leaf’s gift. Whatever the subject, he presents it in an engaging, entertaining, and meaningful way so the audience is transported on a journey they’ll never forget.
“The greater danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short, but in setting our aim too low, and achieving our mark.”——Michelangelo

SN10|Ep513 - Chef |Owner Suzanne Tracht

My very special guest today is the Chef & Owner of Jar Restaurant in LA, Suzanne Tracht!
A driving force in the Los Angeles culinary scene, Suzanne Tracht has built JAR into one of the most beloved and successful restaurants in Los Angeles.
Drawing inspiration from classic American comfort cuisine, JAR is a pilgrimage for passionate eaters and wine lovers from across the country.
After Opening in 2001 with the help of her longtime Chef de Cuisine Preech Narkthong, Tracht's modern American chophouse continues to receive acclaim for its atmospheric setting and exceptional steaks, braises, and seasonal sides—including her sumptuous signature pot roast, which along with her char siu pork has been cited by culinary heavyweights on the Food Network’s popular series The Best Thing I Ever Ate as worthy of the show’s title.
With its retro-modern décor, and evoking the aura of a timeless supper club, JAR has become an indelible part of the city’s culture, even starring as a memorable location in the Academy Award-winning classic La La Land during a pivotal dramatic moment.
Utilizing the finest local ingredients, Chef Tracht delights in taking classic chophouse dishes—deviled eggs, blue cheese wedge salad, and prime steaks—and updating them with a California sensibility.
The season-driven menu offers appetizers and salads, with an emphasis on braises, grilled meats, and seafood, supplemented by an array of sides and traditional sauces. During the holidays, JAR’s beloved Passover Seder and Thanksgiving dinners have earned ritual status among faithful patrons. 
 
Born and raised in Phoenix, Arizona, Tracht apprenticed under mentor Chef Siegbert Wendler at the historic Arizona Biltmore Resort and Spa before relocating to Southern California to work in the kitchen of the prestigious Hotel Bel-Air.
In 1992, she became chef de cuisine at Nancy Silverton and Mark Peel’s famed Campanile, then embarked on her first solo venture as executive chef at the Cal-Asian restaurant Jozu, which ranked number two for “L.A.’s Best New Restaurants” in Los Angeles magazine. Soon after she branched out on her own with the steakhouse concept JAR, Food & Wine named her among its Best New Chefs.
 
Praise for JAR over the years includes acclaim from the late Pulitzer Prize-winning Los Angeles Times and LA Weekly restaurant critic Jonathan Gold, who gave JAR a coveted spot on his “101 Best Restaurants in LA” list every year since its inception.
He says “Tracht’s gift lies in her ability to reproduce the old tastes within a modern context so that the sautéed pea tendrils with garlic make as much sense as the creamed spinach, the duck-fried rice as the mashed potatoes, and the char siu-style pork chop as the prime filet mignon.”
Other accolades include Los Angeles Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Bon Appétit, Saveur, Food & Wine, Gourmet, Los Angeles Confidential, Angeleno, Haute Living, Elle, InStyle, Zagat, and Eater.
 
Chef Tracht, whose many television appearances include Top Chef Masters, Hell’s Kitchen, Today, Entertainment Tonight, and countless cooking shows, continually donates her time to charitable organizations and events.
Her generosity of spirit has been recognized by some of the region’s most prominent organizations, including SOVA (a community food and resources program of Jewish Family Service of LA), C-Cap (Careers Through Culinary Arts Program), LA Loves Alex’s Lemonade, Project Angel Food, No Kid Hungry, and Cedars-Sinai Women’s Heart Center. Suzanne has received peer recognition for her work, participated in Fortune magazine’s Most Powerful Women Summit, and has cooked multiple times at the prestigious James Beard House.
And she joins us again to talk about her Thanksgiving memories, menu, and wishes…
