Episode 138: Andre Arbelaez, Terrance Gerin (Rhino), Dan Fuoco of Visit Detroit

Have to say, this was one of our favorite episodes in a while.  Three great guests that we could’ve probably spent an entire episode with each, good conversations on a little current events, some local politics, a few fun events coming up in the area, actually thought provoking topics…really can’t ask for much more than that.  But then that’s what we should’ve expected with Andre from HITEC, Dan from Visit Detroit, and Terry, a pro wrestler who’s running for office in Dearborn
