Guitar maestro Chris Caffery is known for playing with Trans-Siberian Orchestra, Savatage, Spirits Of Fire, and on his solo albums. He is also involved with three outside enterprises. For nearly a decade, he has been a partner in the hot sauce company High River Sauces. He also sells art and jewelry that he makes from sea glass. And his stuffed animal mascot Wilbur The Metalphant is a social media celebrity that has spawned a line of 300 different items -- clothing, clocks, glasses, school supplies, and more. Many of the proceeds from these latter two endeavors go to children's cancer and elephant sanctuary charities. I called Chris at his home in Orange County, New York via Skype for our podcast.
