Lex

Lex is an educator and digital marketer, who is passionate about making real connections with people of all walks of life. Born and raised in the beautiful island of Puerto Rico, Lex learned the gift of empathy, warmth, & compassion. Growing into young adulthood, those values would weather through the reality of coming to terms with the conflict between his faith in God and his sense of identify and sexuality. The way he sees others is through the lens of his own life experiences - the struggle to  fully accept himself, having grown up ultra conservative, and the triumph of finally being able to express himself authentically. Lex insists that each of us carries redeemable qualities that need to be cultivated and noursihed. As a classroom teacher, he impacted the lives of countless students, guided by that belief. His love for sharing through the art of conversation is what ignites the fire of creativity in him. This show is the ultimate expression of that love.

Co-host

Tony

Tony is an engineer who never imagined he would host a show - at all. He has an appreciation for art as an expression of the best human qualities: ingenuity, beauty and love. His style of expression leans more toward the blunt, always with the intention to call a thing a thing for the sake of conversation and exploring truth. He considers himself an atheist with a belief system rooted in Buddhist tenets and practices of meditation and observation. The difficult circumstances of Tony's upbringing led him to appreciate the little things early on and to value satisfying his curiosity to learn above all things. He loves nature and animals, caring deeply about the future of the planet. Tony brings a breadth of knowledge to the show, his quick wit and snappy attitude. Tony's dream with the show is to spark conversations about things that matter and to think beyond just the superficial.
