588: Succeeding in the Music Biz, Surviving a Miami Jail & How to Build an International Coffee Brand with Frankie & Theo of Kimera Koffee (with Boxing Champ Chris Algieri)

A while back Frankie & Theo from Kimera Koffee journeyed from the Dominican Republic to visit the Mind Pump Studio. With them they brought World Boxing Champion Chris Algieri. (Chris' episode already aired, episode #565. Listen to this episode FIRST, then Chris' for the full jail story) What ensued was a very entertaining conversation about Frankie's short-lived music career, how Kimera was born, Chris Algieri on the McGregor/Mayweather fight (recorded prior to the fight) and how Frankie got in a fight and ended up in a Miami for 4 days.
