About Me

My name is Rich Rodrigues and I’ve been called everything under the sun, but Rowdy was always my favorite. Growing up in the Bronx, NY and spending my summers working at bars in the south of Portugal, I realized my only real talent was telling stories.

After years of long conversations with strangers in dimly lit dive bars listening to Depeche Mode and drinking whiskey, I finally decided a blog was a healthier and less expensive alternative to reach people. The goal of this blog is to cover any topic, really, and to share my perspective which you may or may not enjoy.
