Seeking colder holiday weather, we embark on our first away episode, traveling a few hundred yards north of the Miami-Dade County border to the City of Hallandale Beach, where we sit down with the most Honorable Michael Butler a/k/a "The Most Organized Man in the World." We cover everything from Mike's extensive world travels and recommendations, to growing up overseas, to 5th degree blackbelt organization, to bringing order to the chaos of local government.  NEEDLESS TO SAY, nothing that Mike says here is in any official capacity, whatsoever.  Also, AS AN ADDED BONUS, my GRINGA SISTER, has a BIG announcement . . . before she cuts her appearance short to race to yet another happy hour.

In our 10th Episode we talk to Mark Shapiro, Esq. about his experiences working for the legendary Janet Reno and the nationally famous criminal defense attorney, Roy Black, and some of their famous clients.  At least that was the plan . . . until, in true trial attorney fashion, the Gringo from Miami was put on the hot seat.

In our first remote episode, the Just a Gringo from Miami travels (5 blocks) to the super cool, worldwide headquarters of international watersports brand, Cabrinha, to interview its CEO and former US Sailing Team member, Kent Marinkovic.  We discuss all of the ways to surf . . . except the kind where you just stand up on a surfboard.  Kent's forms of surfing are waaaaay better and you don't need giant waves, just some wind and water; and just for good measure we throw in some discussion about power parasailing and ultralight flying.  Of course, there are stories where all of the above go terribly wrong!  As an added bonus we enjoy several cans of the newly launched Cabrinha Drifter Lager, maybe the best tasting lager ever, where the more you drink, the more proceeds go to benefit The Newfound Freedom project.
