Chris Van Vliet is a 4-time Emmy award winning TV Host, Entertainment Reporter and YouTuber based in Los Angeles, CA. He has traveled the world reporting from events like the Oscars, Grammys and the Cannes Film Festival. You may be familiar with the interviews that Chris posts on YouTube but to just call them “interviews” doesn’t seem fair because they are so much more than that. Chris dives deep into interesting topics with his trademark conversational approach that makes it feel like two old friends catching up. This is the case when it’s a wrestling superstar like John Cena, The Rock or Hulk Hogan or a Hollywood A-Lister like Oprah Winfrey, Tom Cruise or Will Smith.   In this episode, Chris and Brad discuss doing interviews and being around celebrities in general and the correct way to act.   00:00 Intro 06:15 Making the best of 5 Mins 09:18 Celeb story 12:15 Verification of story 17:40 The opening of an interview that creates a pattern interrupt  24:10 The best approach 29:00 Brad Lea for President 32:00 The Will Smith issue at the Oscars 37:30 Chris’ future goals 47:45 Processing live footage 52:40 “I run to the things that scare me.” - Chris Van Vliet 58:20 The next level 01:03:52 Bomb: “You gotta get uncomfortable.” - Brad Lea 01:06:20 Follow Chris and check out his show, INSIGHT on YouTube! 01:09:21 “Perception is reality.” - Chris Van Vliet
