šļø Welcome to Episode 11 of the MI PEOPLE Podcast! šļø
Ā This week, Mike sits down with Chuck and Brenda Marshallāretired U of M pros turned creators of Life in Michigan, a blog-turned-local institution highlighting Michiganās beer, bands, trails, and hidden gems.
From blogging about cold weather runs to launching a full-blown nonprofit art/music showcase (Gig: The Art of Michigan Music), these two have documented the heart and soul of the mitten with camera, pen, and plenty of road miles. Expect stories about band life, van breakdowns, favorite state land spots, and what happens when you name your Subaru Harold and take it camping.
šļø Highlights from this episode:
- How a photography hobby + blog led to Life in Michigan
- Touring with a thrash metal band... then photographing the scene years later
- Their love for Michigan trails, bikes, beer, and music (not necessarily in that order)
- Behind the scenes of their nonprofit GIG and why showcasing visual art in music matters
- Thoughts on newsletters, building community off social media, and living the good life in the woods
