Tommy Tallarico for Orange Coast Mag

Tommy Tallarico

My last assignment for Orange Coast is on the shelves now.

I used to watch this guy review video games on a little underrated show on what was then TechTV.  I had no idea he was the musical genius behind Earthworm Jim and other games of my youth.

He’s a big kid at heart, and his home is filled with the same kind of movie memorabilia I used to (and still secretly) wish for while perusing Sharper Image catalogs.  He also owns a lifesize Tron lightcycle.

Click on through to the article, it’s an interesting read if you’re at all interested in old video games.

Tranquil Tea Lounge

Had a meeting with Orange Coast Magazine a couple months ago, and on stifling summer drive back to LA with a broken air conditioner (barefoot, uphill, both ways, in the snow) I received my first assignment with them via email. The issue is out on shelves now and has some great info on OC nightlife if you’re out in that direction.

Stay tuned for more work from Orange Coast!

The brother sister team that own and operate Tranquil Tea Lounge in Fullerton have an awe inspiring selection of specialty teas to choose from. It’s a welcome change of pace from the impersonal caffeine machine that is Starbucks and has delicious salads and sandwiches to boot.
