Isn't it funny how we all start off with a plan or conception of what our life and

career will look like, but oftentimes we end up in a completely different place than

we ever could have dreamed?

Well, this is a podcast where we sit down with celebrities, athletes, and entrepreneurs

to hear how they handled life's unexpected events.

I'm your host Andrew East.

I'm an engineer, turned professional athlete, turned entrepreneur, and I'm super excited

to bring you these stories to help inspire you to reach your dreams no matter what they

look like.

Today's guest is one of my best friends.

He's a musician, he's a YouTuber, and an all-around great guy.

Matt Yolkham, known as Matt Slays, is one of the funniest people I know, and he's going

to tell us about his transition from hotel sales to being an online influencer with a cult

following.

You can find him on YouTube by typing in Matt and Rebecca and on Instagram at Matt Slays

with two S's.

Ladies and gentlemen, I bring you Matt Yolkham.

I appreciate you taking the time and being willing to sit down with me though, Matt,

because I've been looking forward to this interview for a while.

Really?

Because you have an amazing story, man.

Oh my god.
