Genghis Cohen & Active Bird Community
This week on Snacky Tunes, Darin sits down with Marc Rose and Med Abrous of the iconic LA restaurant Genghis Cohen. In a heartfelt and candid conversation, they reflect on the emotional journey of deciding to close their original, legendary location and the hope and excitement of starting fresh in a new space. They discuss what it means to be woven into the cultural fabric of Los Angeles and the resilience it takes to keep a decades-old institution alive through change and upheaval. Later, we dive into the archives for a live set from Brooklyn’s own Active Bird Community, recorded just before the release of their album Amends. It’s a lively session filled with music, laughs, and good vibes that perfectly complement the spirit of our food story.
