The Most Interesting Man in the Metro?

When we noticed that we lacked a guest to share the microphone it was nearly panic mode until we thought of Phil Wever. "Let's call Phil and bring him in. After all he is one of the most interesting people I know." But, what business angle? Good question. Phil is a professional photographer, has survived a recent heart attack, is an avid bicycler and...drives for Uber in his spare time. It's a fun, wide ranging human interest conversation. Enjoy!
