DetoxPod 212: Chris Maestro (Entrepreneur)

Chris Maestro is the owner and founder of the iconic bar Bierwax. Located in the Prospect Heights section of Brooklyn, this bar marries two of Chris's loves: craft beer and vinyl. In our discussion, Chris discussed what motivated him to open this space and how he's managed to survive in a very competitive landscape (in a very expensive city to own a business) for almost a decade. This chat also covers Chris's upbringing as the child of two immigrants, the culture clashes he endured as a kid, how religion and metal played significant roles in his adolescent years, and how he manages entrepreneurship with being a husband and a dad.
