Aron Bender is joined by Kevin Cuenca -- a former sports reporter turned content creator who’s driving in his own lane. Especially with a show like Cruisin with Kevin.

We talk about the late Nipsey Hussle, his most painful tattoo, figuring out social media algorithms, and life as a Navy kid with an alcoholic father.
