Today\\u2019s guest is Allen Maldonado, star of the new Netflix show Sneakerheads. But to say he\\u2019s an actor is only telling a small part of his story. He\\u2019s also the founder of an app and film festival aimed at connecting short films with consumers, he\\u2019s the co-founder of a music label that provides music for movies and television shows, and he\\u2019s the founder of a running coalition that promotes a healthy lifestyle and positive self-image. Fittingly, his website and instagram are named MaldonadoIsEverywhere. It\\u2019s safe to say that when he\\u2019s passionate about something, he spearheads a movement larger than just himself. But if you ask him, he\\u2019s just happy people are finally pronouncing his name correctly.

Listen in as we cover everything from why there needs to be an Indiana Jones equivalent for minorities, how a trip to Spain changed his outlook on life, and why shoe collections really aren\\u2019t all that different from fine art galleries.
