About Talking Threadheads
From the publisher's feed
Nicole Snyder and Chris Joseph interview fans, musicians, craft/food vendors, employees and others about the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival (Jazz Fest).
About Nicole: A native of Carbondale, Pennsylvania, Nicole’s love of music and learning was fostered from a young age by her loving family. The radio was always playing at her Grandparents’ house and her beloved Grandpa had a supply of old-time country and western cassette tapes that accompanied the family on their many car trips. Her Mom worked at a record pressing plant and brought home the catalog of inventory and would allow Nicole to pick out anything that she wanted- a freedom that sparked her curiosity at a young age. Her love for reading and research lead her to a career as a legal researcher and Nicole holds a master’s degree in library and information science from Drexel University. A love for music and a curiosity for learning new things has always connected her with the best people and that is how she met Chris Joseph and the Threadheads. Nicole’s other interests include bicycles and spinning, gardening and sustainability, college basketball and the Philadelphia Phillies. Nicole has been attending Jazzfest since 2009. Nicole resides in Audubon, New Jersey.
About Chris: Over the last 35 years, Chris has started and managed three environmental consulting businesses, launched two fan-funded music record companies and founded a non-profit charitable foundation for New Orleans musicians. He's also dabbled in philanthropy, book writing, songwriting, and magazine writing. Chris is also an odds-defying, stage-three pancreatic cancer survivor and thriver since 2016, as described in his best-selling 2020 book "Life is a Ride: My Unconventional Journey of Cancer Recovery." He is also a co-curator and contributing author to "The Epiphanies Project: Twenty Personal Revelations." Chris' other podcasts include Oy Vey L.A., The Epiphanies Project, and Life is a Ride: Overcoming Huge Challenges in Unconventional Ways.
