Description

Tony Hsieh wouldn't join a startup company called Shoesite unless Fred Mossler came along. Fred Mossler said he wouldn't sign on until Tony Hsieh did. Despite barely knowing each other, both said yes, and both turned Shoesite into Zappos -- and helped turn downtown Las Vegas into what it is today. Fred was also a co-founder of The Downtown Project and owns Nacho Daddy. Fred shares stories from those early days, and says downtown's progress is just beginning. But he won't reveal the source of the key ingredient in Nacho Daddy's signature Scorpion Shots! Hosts: Jonathan Jossel, Lisa Melmed
