What happens when you sit down with a guy who’s produced Michael Jackson at Carnegie Hall, worked with hundreds of Broadway shows, crossed paths with celebrities, and knows enough people to make six degrees of separation feel like way too many degrees?
We’re joined by Eli Marcus, PR and marketing pro and host of The Motivation Show, and this conversation goes exactly where you’d expect a PB&J conversation to go... absolutely everywhere. We get into outrageous rent, lawyers charging by the hour, celebrity encounters, Fran Drescher, the hidden geniuses behind hit songs, The Beatles, Taylor Swift, The Nutcracker, and how Broadway actually works behind the curtain. Eli even shares how he spotted the potential of In the Heights before Lin-Manuel Miranda became a household name.
Eventually, we stumble into something resembling actual wisdom: proximity is power. Eli explains why the people you surround yourself with, the value you bring to them, and the relationships you build can completely change your opportunities.
It’s show business, marketing, music, money, random opinions, questionable detours, and enough tangents to require a GPS.
Basically, a perfectly normal episode of PB&J.
