This episode is extraordinary for a number of reasons. The day we recorded was the 11th anniversary of the passing of Benny's Father, Carlos Rosario.

This was an emotional episode, and we hope you all enjoy it. Check Damion out at http://damionscott.com/work-flatiron Instagram: DamionScottArt Facebook: damion.Scott.7
