Okay, folks, today’s guest is a man who has spent more time backstage than most rock stars... and probably remembers more of it. He’s the wizard behind the curtain at Radio Woodstock, a guy who took a tiny Hudson Valley station and somehow made it cooler than your favorite Spotify playlist.
He’s the founder of Mountain Jam—yes, that Mountain Jam—the festival where you go to lose your inhibitions and find yourself. He’s thrown more legendary parties in a field than most of us have thrown in our entire lives.
He’s equal parts music mogul, marketing madman, and spiritual Sherpa of the airwaves. Please welcome the maestro of mayhem, the baron of broadcast, the guy who somehow makes running a radio station look cool as hell. I also have the honor of calling him my good, lifelong friend. Ladies and gentlemen...please welcome Gary Chetkof.

Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want?
