A first generation Russian immigrant, Ilya Klyuchnikov turned U.S Citizen.      Ilya has lived quite a life thus far, One he should be proud of. Wife, kids, dogs, house, cars, hes living the American Dream, but let me describe him in the best way I can.  Ilya is the guy in the action movie  that's driving the car.  They call them a wheel man,   not the guy, shooting the guns, out the window wheel man, but the wheel man that's driving the guy, that's shooting the guns, out the window.     Charismatic, you ask? Depends who's in the room.  Story teller? Yes one of the best with, loud center of attention overtones.  I'm sure we all know a guy like this but at the same time you've never met anyone like him.  Ilya is a guy you could scream at in frustration about a particular subject, recent event, or  current shit show your now apart of together weather voluntary or not, but he'd bail you out of a real jam in a heart beat if he could, but............hes also the guy you just rented a car with that  literally just burned the tires down to the cords and oh by the way,  its your card on file.   So sit back and listen to this, my brother from another mother tell his story in his own words  about he grew from a young boy, to the guy hertz rent a car now has employee training videos about.  This is going to be a long ass podcast.
