This week's guest is the perfect fit for the show. He's a freelance writer, mainly for Thrillist where he held a full time Editor role for a number of years. He's the frontman of Black Crystal Wolf Kids, a rocking cover band that will blow the lid off of your party. He was on a Travel Channel show, Trip Testers, that spawned out of his food reviews from Thrillist. He's got many irons in many fires and that fire burns hot with energy. That energy fuels his passion and is portrayed in his lust for life and cheerful demeanor. We talk about adopting cats amid shelter in place, learning to shift a multiple piece band's performance to live streaming a variety show. Adapting and evolving while keeping an optimistic outlook seems to be the key. For jeff, he acknowledges the extremely good nature of timing in his success but also the hard work he put in to pay his dues. While the Travel Channel show was a blast, it was a 6 year journey in all from concept to the last two years of it being on air. That for example is the long road of entertainment. Diversity, like investing, seems to be the key to longevity in his endeavors, Jeff is by no means slowing down or admitting defeat in any realm.Also, please donate to Jeff's fundraiser to help fight cancer!

MGMT! Billie Eilish!) as well as indie's storied past (The Pixies! The Talking Heads! The Cure!).That attitude's also led to on-stage appearances from members of some of the country's best actual indie-rock bands, from members of #1 rockers fun. to hitmakers Cage the Elephant to festival top-liners Lord Huron, with near-nightly sit ins from among the scene's indie cognoscenti. "I guess," Miller says, "sometimes even serious musicians like to have a little fun themselves."Travel Channel's Trip Testersyoutube.com/watch?v=onupZXhwNvwthrillist.com/authors/jeff-millerJeff Miller is Thrillist's Senior City Editor for Los Angeles, and grew up San Fernando Valley learning the ins and outs of negotiating traffic all over Los Angeles (Orange FTW!). When he's not eating delicious food/ drinking delicious drinks/ doing ridiculous things he's the band leader of Black Crystal Wolf Kids, the world's first indie-rock tribute band; you can also see his byline in publications like The Hollywood Reporter, Billboard, and Relix.Don't forget to like, share, subscribe our YouTube channel,youtube.com/viralmedianetwork415Hit that bell for notifications!Listen to other great podcast episodes onThe Sam Jack Podcast Playlist on this channelor search The Sam Jack Podcast on iTunes, Spotify, Soundcloud, Spreaker, Stitcher, or wherever you podcast!Check out our other playlists for more great videos and join us LIVE on this channel every Friday at 3pm PST for our VLOG!viralmedianetwork.comIG @viralmedia.networkfb Viral Media Networktw @media_viralLogitech Webcam I used to shoot thishttps://amzn.to/2yQKMZOAKG Headphones/Mic Earbudshttps://amzn.to/2zkXoIHLED Light Panelhttps://amzn.to/30roZmR
