When a vacant lot became available in 2014, Humankind Hospitality bought the land to ensure it would continue with the same vision as the Paseo Art District. Frida Southwest emerged from that space as an amalgamation of Mexican, Native American, and Southwest cuisines. Shaun Fiaccone and Kindt Steven Myers discuss this southwestern restaurant with me for Uncovering Oklahoma.
Visit FRIDA Southwest at 500 Paseo in Oklahoma City or their website at fridasouthwest.com

I still have plans to release another video on Thursday. There has been an influx of new businesses and I want to try my best to keep up with what’s happening. This was also one of the reasons I renamed my Tuesday Treat series to Creator Conversations and moved that to Wednesday so my videos could be better spaced apart.
Visit Prelude Coffee Roasters for yourself at 3 NE 8th Street in Oklahoma City’s Automobile Alley District inside the 8th Street Market or online at https://preludecoffeeroasters.com/
Get lost through the reclaimed and restored finds at Dead People’s Stuff “Architectural Antiques + Design” in Oklahoma City. Curran and Marymar Fudge give a tour of their antique store.
For my patron supporters, I have an uncut version of the tour available here. I cut out several parts for pacing and to keep the video more timeless. They are finishing up their remodel.

I’m thrilled to share this video ad I made for I Ate Oklahoma. This promo spot turned out amazing. We spent a morning recording the video and I used some photos he sent me along with my b-roll archives from Uncovering Oklahoma to tell his story.
“Video wiz @UncoveringOklahoma created this amazing commercial for iateoklahoma.com and I couldn’t be more thrilled. If you’re looking for someone who can make a commercial, video press release, short movie, pretty much anything involving a camera, HIRE DENNIS SPIELMAN. He’s also literally one of the best people you’ll ever meet.”
