I Love Your Stories is a soulful conversation series hosted by artist and creative guide Hava Gurevich, where art meets authenticity. Each episode invites you into an intimate dialogue with artists, makers, and visionaries who are courageously crafting lives rooted in creativity, purpose, and self-expression.
From painters and poets to healers and community builders, these are the stories behind the work—the moments of doubt, discovery, grief, joy, and transformation. Through honest, heart-centred conversations, Hava explores how creativity can be both a healing force and a path to personal truth.
If you’re an artist, a dreamer, or someone drawn to a more intuitive and intentional way of living, this podcast will remind you that your story matters—and that the act of creating is a sacred, revolutionary act.
[MUSIC]
Welcome back to All of Your Stories.
I'm your host, Tava Gurvitch,
and today I'm joined by
poet Victor Sotomayor,
who performs under the name Italo.
Based in Los Angeles, Victor is also
a co-founder of Theria
Magazine and Theria Radio.
He has published two books of poetry,
including "Nocerbla Español"
and "Antology Addressing Discrimination"
and "The Oz Monologues,"
a collection inspired by the
characters of "Wizard of Oz,"
that later became an
award-winning stage production.
During our conversation,
Italo reads two of his poems
and shares how poetry becomes a place
where emotion,
performance, and truth meet.
We talk about writing as
both a private act of healing
and something meant to be shared,
and about building creative platforms
that make room for
voices outside the mainstream.
If poetry has ever found
you when you needed it most,
this episode will feel
like a quiet confirmation
rather than an explanation.
Victor, welcome to the podcast.
Now, quick word from our sponsor,
and then we'll get
right back to the show.
When I started selling my art,
I had absolutely no idea
how to actually turn it
into a business, a professional business.
And then I came across art storefronts
and that was a game changer.
I've been a customer now for years,
and they've been
instrumental every step of the way
of helping me succeed.
I have a gorgeous,
powerful commerce website.
I have marketing tools and
a membership to a community
that is very supportive and teaches me
how to succeed as an artist.
Check them out, artstorefronts.com
and tell them how I sent you.
Welcome back to "I Love Your Stories."
My guest today is Victor Sotomayor,
and Victor is based out of Los Angeles.
He is a poet.
He's also the editor of
an entertainment magazine
called "Siri Entertainment."
And what else do I know about you?
That's about it.
(laughing)
I'm gonna let you, if
you wanna just tell us
a little bit about
yourself and how you got to poetry
and where you are now.
Great.
Well, first, thank you for
having me on your podcast.
I just talked to you earlier
because I actually will be featuring you
in our magazine
called "Theoria Magazine."
So yes, my name is Victor Sotomayor,
and I am the editor, also the co-founder
of "Theoria Entertainment."
And we have basically our,
we're based in Los Angeles.
Yes.
But we actually have
expanded to international too.
We actually have some
people from South Africa.
That was in their magazine.
So I don't know if that
answered all your questions.
Well, actually, it answers part of it.
And I do wanna talk about the magazine,
but first a little bit about you.
So a little bit about your background
and how you started in poetry.
Okay.
I can actually get, I
can tell you a story.
Yes.
I'm also a storyteller.
Oh, and actually the funny thing is that
some people may not realize
that we're all storytellers.
We all talk about our stories, right?
So I can tell you a story
and you may think it's fictional, but,
so my story started in
the year of the rat, 1972.
I was born here in
Los Angeles, California,
but my parents are from Peru.
So they actually migrated back to Peru
when I was one and a half.
And I grew up in Peru,
which is in South America.
So my first language
was actually not English.
You know, I learned Spanish first.
Now I'll fast forward to
when I got to come back here.
And I wasn't sure what I
was gonna do with my life.
I thought I wanted to
be an actor, you know,
Hollywood and all, but things happened.
And now I'm in my forties.
Well, right now I'm in my fifties.
But when I was in my forties,
I discovered a passion of poetry,
going to open mics here in the Valley,
so Fernando Valley, North
Hollywood, Hollywood area.
And I used to actually
be so shy about poetry,
but they invited me to
come to this open mic
and the host of the open
mic, his name is Jeffrey Martin.
It was just like, I felt like at home.
I felt, suddenly I felt like I'm a,
guard was down for a moment.
And everybody was sharing their poetry.
And so, and I'm not shy,
but I wasn't sure at the same time
about what I was gonna share at the time.
And so I think I read whatever I read.
And you know how we are artists,
we are very critical, right?
So I think I just storm out of the place.
As soon as I was that, I'm like,
I didn't drop the
mic, but I was like, bye.
Then I went outside.
And the host of the open
mic, his name is Jeffrey.
He was so touched by
that piece that I shared.
And I didn't realize
people were paying attention.
And anyways, another fast
forward to a few years later,
I was talking to a
classmate of mine in Peru,
and we were doing the Facebook thing.
And I told her, I'm like, I'm very
excited to tell you.
That guess what?
And she knew me since
I was in high school
or middle school, elementary actually.
She said, oh, I told
her, guess what, I'm a poet.
And I go to this open
mic and it's amazing.
I published my book and da, da, da.
And she's like,
Victor, I already knew that.
And I'm like, wait a minute,
what do you mean you knew that?
I mean, my 40s, right?
And she's like, wait,
hold on a second, right?
And she stopped, she's typing.
And I see the type
typing, typing, typing.
I'm like, what is she typing, right?
What is she typing?
And then suddenly it dawned on me.
Oh my God.
Are you sharing
something that I gave to you
back when I was 12?
And she's like, yeah.
And I'm like, wait a minute.
I was a poet back in, wait a second.
I just blew my mind.
How do you keep this for so many years?
And then it's like a
gift that I gave to myself
to remind me that I was a poet
back when I didn't know what poetry was.
What is it about poetry that abused you
like as a form, as an art
form or of a form of expression?
Well, poetry is healing.
And I didn't understand
it at the time that I was,
and I was the moment that
I shared a personal piece
because I always perform.
I'm doing performances here and there,
but there was one time that
I was hosting the open mic
and I shared something personal.
And after I was done with that, I felt,
I felt something leaving my body.
And it was the goosebumps,
but they were all over me.
Like I was like ants.
And I'm like, and now I
think I've ever really said this
in the mic.
Wow.
Wow.
That just happened.
And they were like, they're all like,
yeah, that just happened.
So what I realized is that I wasn't,
I didn't understand it at the time
that it was me processing
my traumas and my fears.
And it was therapy
because they were listening.
It was just not one person listening.
They were all listening, even
the people that were taking,
because it was a coffee shop.
So they were just people
that was just random people
that were there just to get their coffee.
And they were like, wait a
second, what's happening here?
I was just getting my
coffee and I'm like,
and they sat down and they listened
and they stayed for
the whole hour or two.
And they were like, I'm
gonna come back with my poetry
that I'm going to write because of what
you just shared today.
I'm like, right, I inspire you to write.
That's, they're like, yes, you did.
One of the things that
I'm hearing and I'm not,
like poetry is not
something that I've ever gravitated
towards, so there is a
kind of notion that poetry
is something sort of up
there, like Shakespeare,
like something that's kind of hard and
you have to study it
and it's intellectual
or sort of up there.
But that's really not the case,
that poetry is something that's very
personal and immediate
or can be something
personal and immediate.
And a way to express
yourself and connect.
I'm looking at the
little bit of information
I found about you.
It says that you published two books
and the first book was
an anthology of poetry
about discrimination
titled, "No Sable Español."
And the second one is a
collection of monologues
inspired by the
characters of "Wizard of Oz."
Oh, it's blurry because
you're blurring the back.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Also to mention that
you do have a stage name
as a poet, Italo.
Yes.
I'm curious about that.
What is, why have a stage name?
I didn't like my name for a while
because of my
relationship with my father.
My father's name is Victor Manuel
and I'm Victor, period.
So I battled with that for a while.
And so I was like, well,
I'm gonna give myself a name.
And I always liked the name Italo
because it reminded me of Italy and I
love Italy, whatever.
So I was like Italo, that's it.
So tell me about this
characters of the "Wizard of Oz,"
monologues inspired by the
characters of "Wizard of Oz."
What is that?
I'll give you a sample.
How about that?
Yes, that would be great.
So what I'm gonna read,
and this by the way took
me all the way to Russia.
And so I'll tell you
the story after, but okay.
So I'm doing the one that is my favorite.
I perform it every time
that they ask me to do a poem
and I memorized it, right?
But I always have to have
this just for my safety blanket.
Yes.
But I will be performing as Italo.
So if you don't know Italo, watch out.
I'll be nice to you.
Yes, this is actually a
piece called "Dear Dorothy."
And you have to figure
out who this person is.
(clears throat)
"Dear Dorothy, I know
who you are, my pretty."
You told me your name 100 times.
1000 times Dorothy Gale from Kansas,
or your heart dances
and you left your stances.
Oh, poetry.
Were you under a point, tree?
I remember the first time I did ask you,
your anus is your charm,
running it all over us.
And suddenly everyone wanted to be you.
They wanted a piece of your charm.
Oh, well, I'm not like everyone, you see.
I wasn't happy when I saw you dropping
from the dark clouds
and stomping your
house on my dear sister,
Wicked Witch of the East.
My other half.
The only one I can tell my
secrets to, my dear sister.
The only one who never called me Wicked.
Like all those munchkins in large,
munchkin landlabs to label me.
Everybody's scared of
what they don't know.
If they spend the time to know me,
they realize that could be charming.
Believe it or not, Dorothy from Kansas,
I also know was despicable and wicked.
I was young once, naive, defenseless.
Like when you first arrived in Oz,
and then you took a hold
of my sister's slippers.
Get this haba, not red, not green.
They were silver.
And they were a gift to my sister.
And they hold us into mental value to me.
You know, you know what I mean, right?
Spasiva.
I still mourn her
death when I'm all alone.
My black heart still aches
when I remember my sister.
And I don't even
blame you for killing her.
I know very well that
wasn't your intention.
I'm not stupid.
But what kills me is
how you fool everyone.
All alone, they all believe
you're so naive and innocent,
but I see your intentions.
I see through you in my crystal ball.
You're becoming more and more powerful
in your journey to the city of emeralds.
You're a threat to us all in Oz and
you're getting momentum.
And there's no stopping you.
Not my flying monkeys, not the rain,
not the thunderstorms, not the cuervos,
or that's prose in Spanish.
I know Spanish.
Not the shadows that
chase you to the dark forest.
Not my black magic,
not my curses, nothing.
And everything that has changed your way
came back to me tenfold.
Karma is a witch.
I should have known.
It was my first listening to "Let a
Learning Wish Craft."
Aww.
That's part one.
Wow.
Like I said, watch out.
She's come in the whole bar with her.
That's amazing.
Okay, now I understand Italo.
Yeah, no, yeah.
Yeah.
It's really fun
actually seeing your face,
seeing how you act out on the poem
is just as much part of it as reading it.
And I don't like to
watch myself performing.
So right now I was very uncomfortable.
Oh.
But actually it's good,
because I now realize
what I have to do is,
this is my philosophy as a poet.
Sometimes you embody this personality,
or this persona, or this spirit, or this,
you're a messenger.
You're somehow
connected to the spirits, right?
And this person that I'm talking,
or she's speaking through me.
And I don't know who that is.
I thought it was my mom,
because I based it on my mom very much,
but it's not her.
So I'm like, who's talking to me?
Because this poem came to me so quickly.
I knew what I had to say,
the next line came to me,
and the next line came to me.
This is just a part of that story.
And I was replying back to Dorothy,
because Dorothy started it all.
But before Dorothy was a flying monkey.
Suddenly I became every
character in the story.
How does this have to do with Russia?
Where?
Ah, right.
Interesting story.
So basically,
one of the owners of Theory Entertainment
is basically the time.
He was actually, he's an artist too.
And he was performing,
we were performing at an open mic,
but we never met each other before.
So I performed, it wasn't this piece.
It was the Cowardly Lion piece,
which has to do about my parents.
And he's the only one
that came to me after.
He's like,
"I know you're talking
about your father, right?"
I'm like, "Yeah."
And he's like, "Yeah."
And so we connected, right?
And then I wrote every
character of the story,
from the Wizard of Oz
to, or the Wizard himself,
and the witches and everything.
Dorothy too, of course.
And then he's like, "Okay, so
you're done with it, right?"
And then he presented me
with this gift one day,
which is the book, the actual book.
He designed it.
I don't know if you can
see it, but it's, okay.
Yeah, we took this to
the theater production
that we did in Hollywood.
And somebody that was in
the cast, which is the monkey,
she was from St. Petersburg.
And she invited a friend of hers
to see the show in Hollywood.
So somebody came, saw the show.
After the show, she's like,
"I wanna talk to you
guys about going to set..."
She didn't tell us what.
The next day we went to see her,
and she told us, "I want you guys
to come to St. Petersburg."
And I'm like, "For what?"
She's like, "I want you guys to direct."
I was the director of the show.
And of course, Seb was
the graphic designer.
We had a whole production here.
So I want you guys to
come to St. Petersburg.
And we went to the Cebur Arena.
It's a 7,000 seat.
Arena.
A picture, you know, Staple Center,
or Madison Square Garden.
And it was that size.
Wow.
And all I said was, "Yes, I
don't know what I'm doing,
but I'm going to St. Petersburg."
I don't know Russian.
The only thing I
learned was Spasiba and Niet.
But it turns out the cast members
knew English enough to understand
what I was trying to...
Anyhow, so yes, that was in 2018.
And I thought I was
going to go on the tour.
That didn't happen.
But luckily, I was able to see Russia
and realize these people are amazing.
Oh my God.
That's an amazing experience.
So tell me about Thuria Magazine.
How did that come about?
What is it exactly?
Right.
Well, Thuria Magazine came to us,
I believe two years ago.
But yes, we were
already doing the radio app,
which is called Thuria Radio.
And we got all the musicians,
we got all the music there.
We do have some artists that are signed
under the label Thuria Entertainment.
They are independent artists.
All of them are independent artists,
original music, no covers, also no AI.
And we made it a point to be,
because I'm an artist and
we are all artists here,
we wanted to have a platform
that caters to independent artists only
because nobody's giving us a spotlight.
The radio was already
going for two years.
And then the magazine came to us,
a whole thing within,
it took us two years
to get to that point,
to the first issue of the magazine.
And now we're five issues in.
And so it's getting better.
It's not easy, I can tell you that much.
We're always looking for new
artists and looking for new,
because we wanna have graphic design,
graphic, like your art is very colorful,
very soothing to the eye.
We wanna have photographers,
we wanna have tattoo artists,
we wanna have, who
knows what's out there?
And the poets too, obviously.
So we always try to feature comedians,
so storytellers, you gotta tell,
I can go on and on, but.
So is 3A radio was a response to the fact
that it's very hard
for independent artists
to break through because of
Spotify and other big giants.
And then when you
decided to launch a magazine,
it's kind of an extension of that.
So a similar thing where you want to be
this alternative voice that.
Right, you may think that you,
because you're on all these platforms,
that you're gonna be
famous and reaching famous, no.
You may be in there, sure,
but are they streaming your music?
The music that is on 3A
radio gets to be rotated.
So your song is on rotation,
we actually get more, we
give them more exposure
than you will get from the
other social media platforms.
Are there other
streaming services, right?
What genres of music you?
We have country music that
I never knew was amazing,
rap music, hip hop, Spanish music,
we have a section for that.
We have gospel, everything.
Heavy metal to some of it.
And it's all
independent, so that's the point.
I'm definitely gonna
have links to all of this
in the notes for people to check out.
And I will as well.
And actually I would encourage them
to also submit their
poetry and their music,
because if you're
listening and you're an artist,
all you gotta do is
submit your music or poetry,
we'll sit your dad.
So let me ask you this,
what are you most
passionate about right now?
Poetry?
Not only because it
helps me obviously, right?
And I haven't even shared
the other side of the poetry
that I would like to
share that today if I can,
that is more healing or is more personal
or is more for me.
Sometimes I write poetry
for me that I will never share
or I don't feel
comfortable sharing on social media
because social media is what it is.
Sometimes you don't
feel safe sharing that
on public platforms like social media.
That's why we created Theory because,
and that's what I'm passionate about
is my show on theory radio,
it's called Theory of Poetry.
So I personally select,
well, some of them are
submissions that I get.
And there's all kinds of
poetry, there's healing poetry,
there's different formats,
different the Filipino
community, the Asian community,
Hispanic community, LGBTQ community.
You can talk about every
community has different poetry.
Yeah.
Can you share something personal
that you're comfortable sharing?
Of course.
Well, how deep you want to get?
I'll share one that is,
I wouldn't say personal,
but it's more inspirational.
Okay.
That I was thinking about,
what we talked about earlier.
So this is called reflection on feet.
I know.
That's a reaction that I wanted.
So it goes like this.
Where will your feet take you?
Take off your shoes and free your toes.
Feel the earth beneath you.
Every step you take,
takes you farther than when you started.
A human baby is unable to walk.
Cognitive brain takes months
and years to sort of develop.
And for a good reason,
you have to know all
the rhymes of the season
from the moment you spring
until you embrace the winter.
Every leaf falling off the trees,
every branch that sprouts,
sometimes it needs to
break away so you can grow.
The trees are underrated.
Yeah, it's so wise.
Imagine if they use their feet.
Imagine them moving
around, roaming about,
yet they remain still.
Their roots in the same place
where their roots sprouted from.
So imagine how trees
may envy our free will.
Imagine how much wiser men would be
if they use their feet purposely.
Many times we walk in
the wrong direction,
like incense, love and affection,
falling into temptation,
afflictions and addictions.
Every step takes you farther from home
until you discover the power,
trapping your feet alone.
How many steps do you
take to get you here today?
How many paths do you walk
to get you standing there?
Ground yourself, find your purpose,
or you'll be walking inside a maze,
walking in circles,
repeating the same mistakes.
You're in charge of your feet.
Let them take you where you desire to be.
Will you need to lead
and protect your feet?
For they will take you far.
Remember, you're blessed to have feet.
And you possess free will.
Be wise and prepare for
your fall in your walk.
Connect with your spirit,
and they will take your road.
God's poem.
Wow.
You're really opening my eyes
as far as like what poetry can be.
Maybe I need to give it more of a chance
than I have.
Well, I have a question for you.
Yes.
So before we started
talking about poetry,
what was your idea of,
what's your idea of
poetry right now or before?
Kind of been an art form
that I have not given much thought to.
I have heard poems here and there.
And I actually, I did take a
poetry class in grad school.
And it was, it felt like a lot of work.
We would read a poem
and then there was a
lot of like interpreting
what it might mean.
And every word had so much meaning
and which was really
interesting as an academic exercise.
But it left me feeling
that poetry has to be received
in this kind of
rigorous intellectual setting.
And I think this is a similar way
that some people think about art,
especially if they feel
like art is just the stuff
that you see in a museum
and that you don't understand.
And somebody has to explain to you why,
why it's art kind of thing.
But I would say primarily,
I haven't given it that much thought.
Right.
That's the main thing.
Well, and I see the
reason I'm asking that question
is because, well, first of all,
I wanted to see your
impression of what poetry,
what your impression of it was or is,
but also because I
thought the same thing.
I can never write
like Maya Angelou, right?
Or like Edgar Alampault,
another amazing poet, right?
Of his time.
Like we're in 2026, aren't we?
Are we?
So it's like, okay,
how can I relate to
somebody from the 1800s?
Yeah.
Where what's going on today
kind of takes precedence
over what happened in 1800
in England somewhere.
Not to insult the dead
poets, but they're dead.
Yeah.
Yeah, they had a time and it's a place
and we're still celebrating.
Yeah, it's kind of like saying that
Michael Angelou or even
Picasso is all there is to art.
Of art.
You know, and they're
always going to be valuable
and there's always
gonna be something to learn,
but they don't represent everything
that's happened since.
Right.
Another thing too, does it have hot poems
that are way deeper than that one?
Live doesn't give you warnings.
It's like, hey, watch out.
Someone's gonna cut you off the freeway.
You're gonna be, you know,
now nobody tells you, you know,
what you're gonna go be
going through as a 10 year old
or a five year old watching
your parents fight over dinner.
And you're like, what's happening?
Everything was fine yesterday.
And so, and your poetry
doesn't have to rhyme.
It doesn't have to
be, you know, haiku wise
or it doesn't have to be a sauna.
Yeah, sure.
You can learn about
the rules of the poetry.
And there are many that
I still haven't learned.
Yeah.
I don't pay attention to
that when I'm writing my poetry.
I honestly don't.
Some poets out there are freestyle poets
and some of them are rappers.
Yeah.
Rapper is a rhythm and poetry.
R-A-P.
That's amazing.
And both of the poems that you read,
like they're very easy to,
they're very
accessible and very relatable
and full of imagery.
Very nice.
So I wanted to ask you with everything
that you have done in your life so far,
what is your definition of success
and how has it changed over time?
Well, the definition of
success back in the day
used to be related to money, right?
I thought you were doing the snapping.
Oh, the snapping.
Well, that too, it can
be validation, right?
Yeah.
And yeah, for a moment it
was, or it is sometimes.
I still need validation.
I still need the snaps to be like,
"Hey, hey, you got that?"
Yeah, and sure, there's
social media validation
that I sometimes crave.
But now that we have
a theory of magazine,
theory of radio, theory of poetry
and all this stuff that's
happening in the country,
success to me would mean that somebody
that hears my poetry or the other poets
that I learned that I have in my show
will be like, "Wait, is that allowed?"
That didn't rhyme.
That didn't make any sense.
Or it made sense, but that's it.
Like you just came up
with something like that
out of the blue, yes.
And many people don't
realize they're poets too.
They just haven't tapped into it.
You're an artist, but you
don't know what you're an artist
until somebody tells you,
"Hey, have you considered
"writing a poem about that?"
The way you said it, it
didn't rhyme or anything,
or it might have, you have an accent.
But yeah, sure, I have an accent.
Don't you have an accent?
Listen to everybody. Yes, we all do.
We are all artists, we are born artists.
Every single one of
us learn to communicate
or express themselves through crayons
and temper tantrums and rhythm.
And so when you were
talking about how your friend
dug up a poem that you
wrote when you were 12,
I think that really struck me
because that's something
that happens to a lot of people
that come to art,
whatever their medium is,
later in life, thinking
they're finally going to embrace
their creative side, only to find out
that they are just picking up
where they left off as kids.
That part.
And yeah, and that's
such a precious lesson too.
Right, and yeah, exactly.
I have many hats and
sometimes I don't wanna wear hats.
I don't feel like performing sometimes.
I don't feel like I wanna share anything.
I just wanna be in my
cocoon for a little bit
because there's a lot
of, it's that we go through
a lot of trauma, the
grief that we don't deal with
and a lot of mental issue going on
or mental breakdowns, right?
We don't know how to put it in words.
We don't understand.
There's a lot going on.
So every day that I share poetry,
I'm healing that side of my past.
I'm like, okay, that's, and I still have,
get a little emotional and guess what?
Men are emotional beings too.
We have tear ducts for a reason, right?
And so yeah, go for it.
And when you do that
and you share something
that's so very personal,
the more personal it is,
the more universal it becomes,
meaning the more it's
going to resonate with someone
and you never know who is
going to hear your words
or read your words and
they will hit them right
when they needed something like that
to be through something.
So art has power to do that.
So lastly, where can, I'm gonna have it
in the notes as well,
but I'm just gonna ask
somebody wanted to like,
learn more about you, about your poetry,
about the theory of poetry that you host.
How can they find you?
Right, so I would recommend
they just go to their website.
It's called the theory,
T-H-E-R-I-A entertainment.com.
But also I like you to download theory,
which is free to download,
Theory Radio, T-H-E-R-I-A, I-I-A, sorry.
And you can download
it from your app store.
You can download it for
free on your phone or whatever.
And it's like I said,
independent artists,
there's hardly any commercials.
And it's music that you've
never heard on the radio.
That's fantastic.
Oh, I'm sorry, one more thing.
Yes.
On Friday nights, Friday at 7 p.m.
Pacific Center time,
is the poetry, which is in New York
or in the East Coast, it's 10 p.m.
So yeah, whenever you have a
chance to listen to poetry,
and music, there's always music there.
This was so serendipitous in a way.
You found me and asked me to be part of,
featured in your magazine.
And we had this wonderful conversation,
which I got the time wrong,
because I'm time
zones. That's a mega sense.
It doesn't make sense.
Time zones don't make sense, exactly.
So I'm talking to you from the future.
And as we were talking,
I said, wait a minute,
I need to have you on my show as well.
So that's been amazing.
Thank you very much.
