Hey Global VID friends: Back in early June, I got interviewed for a new YouTube webseries called "Coffee & Crepes". The concept is that each guest sits down to drink & eat (you guessed it) and be interviewed in a tight 5 minute video by the producer. After eating the crepe, there is then a show-and-tell element and I chose to do share my Top Tips on starting a podcast.

I could not have really prepared for this interview because the questions were really unique. It's a neat way to quickly get into conversation and to really learn about people beyond your typical interview questions (and all edited in 5 minutes!). I even realized in this interview that it was the drum set in my basement that really drove my desire to work in entertainment. Check it out: https://youtu.be/lgCa4hP_wts

Plus if you were ever thinking of starting a podcast, they created an extended video for my top tips here:
