Happy Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month! This week we are welcoming a triple threat- powerhouse team, Sarap Shop restaurant owners: Kristen and James Brillantes and JP Reyes!
Join us as the trio share their journey from a celebrated Bay Area food truck to their brick and mortar grand opening this past March. They dive deep into what it takes to come together as a dream team, which for Sarap Shop, means trailblazing a more inclusive business culture by incorporating our shared humanity and identities rooted in family systems, community networks, and fun.
From our titas’ family management roles to healing sibling relationships, tune in to their approach on how Filipino culture and family dynamics take shape in our everyday working environments. In Kristen’s words, discover how business can be a, “vehicle for the lifestyle you want.”
The Sarap Shop team is also the leading force behind Kultivate Labs’ Business Accelerator program, Seed Network. Through the Anchor Creatives and Entrepreneurs Collective (ACE), their efforts to support small businesses continue to shape the commercial district in SOMA, Pilipinas.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
