Loved the interview with Zack Gonzalez. What an amazing kid! Do you know if they are going to have another Play Now Event any time soon? I would love to attend!
Also, a bit of adivice:
I noticed his interview was a bit hit and is the highest in downloads, I recommend having him on the show again. I would love to hear how Play Now went and if theres going to be another event and to hear about his book. His bio says he’s working on a book and a documentary. I (and many others) would love for him to be back on the show!
