If you live in a particular region of the country, I'm sure you have seen a new grocery supermarket chain blossoming called Lidl.  Although the chain is has been around since 1973, it's stores first opened in the US in 2017.
Are Suspiciously Low Priced Groceries At Lidl Too Good To Be True?
Personally, I can say that I have seen the increase of Lidl's presence in the Atlanta area.  Just off the top of my head, I can think of at least 3 stores near my home.

I must admit that I am a Publix man but I do enjoy going to Lidl also to get particular items on my grocery list.

....but let me get to why we are actually posting this blog......Have you ever seen a Lidl commerical on tv or online?  If so you may have noticed this guy questioning the avocodos!!!!!

THAT'S RIGHT!!! IT'S OUR FRIEND AND FORMER WHEN WE SPEAK TV GUEST, EMRAH KOTAN!!!

Like always, we are so excited to see our friends and supporters making moves..... In addition to being an actor, Emrah Kotan, is also a music instructor and classically trained percussionist.   He's toured with one of our favorite artists, India Arie, and headlined Jazz In The Alley, a summer jazz concert series in which  When We Speak TV is a co-sponsor.

WHEN WE SPEAK TV IS SUPER EXCITED FOR EMRAH!!!!!
