Taylor Durdan
Born and raised a South of Gandy kid, Taylor grew up wreaking havoc amongst all of the South Tampa and Ybor City areas. His love for this city eventually led him to living in Ybor where he's resided for the past 13 years. A mechanic by trade, he has an accomplished resume ranging from shop ownership, to working for racing teams, to modifying high end exotic cars. Nominated two years in a row for "Best of the Bay - Best Auto Mechanic", Taylor seeks to use his meticulous and inquisitive nature to bring substance and intrigue to the podcast showcasing Ybor's rich history and colorful characters. Sitting as VP of the Historic Ybor Neighborhood Civic Association (HYNCA) in 2014 found him falling in love even further with this historic area. Find him in town on any given weekend evening with a nice cigar and possibly a stiff cocktail and start a conversation.
