About

Hello my name is Dennis Raimondi. As your host I will be taking you on exciting journey into the world of coffee through my interviews with people of interest in the industry.

First let me thank you for visiting my site and being an avid coffee lover like me. I have a Masters Degree in Education from Harvard University and I’m a former member of the Dean’s Council at Harvard University’s Kennedy School of Government. I am the host of the radio talk show Speaking Freely with Dennis Raimondi at speakingfreelywithdennis.com and also the co-host of the podcast Spirit Matters at www.spiritmatterstalk.com. My guests have included prominent people from business, politics, sports, entertainment, and non-profits.

My Philosophy

For me, coffee is not just about a bean being roasted and brewed and poured into a cup. It is about the journey of how it got there. It is also about the culture that has grown up around coffee. It is about the similarities and differences of coffee culture that exists from country to country. It is about how coffee enlivens people and how coffee brings people together. It is about coffee’s spiritual component.
