Article Attached To This Podcast Here 🎙️: https://atlasgeographica.com/chris-martinez/

Chris Martinez is the founder of DUDE Agency as well as the author of 'Never Wear Pants Again'.

He is a man born in Los Angeles, son of a Mexican father and a Taiwanese mother. His story is one of struggle and pain - but out of it comes a hardened man creating so much in the world. He runs his Digital Agency out of Tijuana, Mexico and just published a sociological look into the changing world of business.

Chris is en route to return to the podcast soon to speak exclusively about his new book. In this podcast, we speak more generally about the US & Mexico.

In this podcast, you can expect to hear about...

  • What it was like growing up among the gangs of LA.
  • Why Mexican taxes are fucked.
  • The lazy filter that Hollywood propagandises Mexico with.
  • Some things that could turn the Mexican economy around.
