    Peaks and Modelo

    Peaks and Modelo

    On this next episode I have a guest by the name of Frank Rojas his name on Instagram is frank_e_rojas4 give him a follow. We are podcasting at the top of Monserate Mountain trail.  We met about 3 years ago on Instagram and then finally hiked together last year on September 11. Holy shit, he made me laugh then and made me laugh even more on this podcast.  He caught my attention with some of his hiking photos. He gets up at 2 or 3 am and loves catching the sunrise and being above the clouds. Not only that, but he is just such a funny guy and never forgets to pack his Modelo Especial. Find out how he keeps those suckers so cold. It was hard for me not to laugh every minute. I had no idea what type of work he did and its pretty impressive and such an important job. He describes himself as a very reserved person. But, after a couple beers though, he loosens up a bit. Find out who his inner celebrity is and what his intro song would be @monica_crayolla. Find out how us little people look from way up there @monsterrrtattt. For those of you that know Frank, you know what I’m talking about. Frank definitely has a passion for the outdoors. Find out what ALV means @socal_hillibillies. Listen for shout outs at the end! I hope that one day you get to meet Frank and hike with him, well maybe….Anyways, crack those beers open and relax and enjoy this episode! "It's Modelo time". (I do not own the rights to this quote.) (Explicit content)
