POSI EARLY 1ST BIRTHDAY TO THE KEEP IT POSI PODCAST! To help celebrate, the guest for episode 50 is my 10th grade English teacher, Mr. Raphael Rodriguez. The reason I asked him if he would hop on for episode 50 is because he was my mentor in high school and if you listened to episode one, that’s when I had my mentor in the music industry, on the podcast. I felt it made sense to have another mentor as a guest on the eve of the podcast turning one year old! To make a long story short, there was a club at school that Mr. Rodriguez sponsored when I was in high school. The Beatles and Music Club. I think that club was the beginning of what officially led me to pursue a career in the music/radio industry. In this conversation, Mr. Rodriguez and I talked about the club that started everything, teaching during the Covid era, the reason why there was a specific album that ended up being the first CD he ever bought even though tapes cost less, buying concert tickets at The Wherehouse, how and why he became a teacher, and so much more. Thank you to all that have been part of the podcast journey during the last year! The support means a lot!!
