You might know Garrett Vogel as the on-air producer for the Elvis Durant Show, but there's more to his story than meets the ear. Tune in as we embark on a metaphorical, and quite literal, hike with him. We'll uncover the tales behind his red-carpet encounters, the backstory to his Staten Island roots, and the way he navigates his everyday life with Type 1 Diabetes. Expect laughs, candid insights, and a fair share of bugs along the way.

Our journey takes us on a deep-dive into the workings of the radio industry, from the hilarious prank calls to the complex negotiations that occur behind the scenes. Garrett's invaluable lessons about being assertive, speaking up, and asking for forgiveness, not permission, are golden nuggets of advice helpful to everyone, regardless of their profession. As we navigate the terrain, not only do we discuss the real concerns of the industry, such as the potential of AI replacing creative work, but also touch upon personal moments of his life, like his two frightening encounters with hypoglycemia.

Finally, we bring it home by discussing not just the thrills of the industry, but also the stakes. The reality of raising kids in the spotlight, the hustler mentality that's needed to succeed, and even the unexpected encounters with wildlife – yes, we're talking about a copperhead snake here! As we wind down, Garrett offers words of wisdom on why it's necessary to take risks and pursue passion, especially for those aspiring to make a mark in broadcasting. So, join us, and let's hit the trail with Garrett Vogel for a podcast episode that's as engaging as it is informative.
