Hey guys, it's Gary Vay, NerdChuck, and this is the GaryVee audio experience.

Hey everybody, this is Gary Vay, NerdChuck, and this is episode 256 of the Ask GaryVee show.

I'm super fired up for this phenomenal guest in Sionronic. This is really the first time we're jamming.

Yeah.

We've interacted a little bit on Twitter. Yeah.

And we ran into each other on a plane. I was like, hey, you should come in. No, the best part is like then you walk by and then I DMed you.

I was like, hey, you should be a guest on the Ask GaryVee show. You're like, sure. And here we are two weeks later. Morgan, why don't you tell the one person from the Vayner Nation who doesn't know who you are?

How you describe yourself now and we'll get into this show. We're gonna have Facebook. If you're watching, so what are we doing? Taking phone calls from where? Facebook?

So Instagram peeps go over to Facebook live. If you want to get your questions in, put your phone numbers into Facebook.

Morgan and I are gonna take four or five calls, depending on how much we app. But for that one and a half person, that doesn't really work.

Yeah, my name is Morgan Spurlock. I am a filmmaker, a producer, a writer, but mostly I am a professional storyteller. That's what I do.

That's how you go with. Yeah. Which makes sense. So before we go into questions, I want to get some background.

Not to be confused like an amateur storyteller. Listen, it's really crazy. That means I actually get paid once in a while. That's the good part.

Not all the time, but sometimes I actually get paid for it. Well, you know what? It's funny. I think professional storytellers just get paid, right?

Like I think they can come from anywhere. Whether they make big Hollywood films or they make Instagram channel.

Could be anywhere. Yeah. That's right. So take me all the way back. When did you realize you were a storyteller? Were you the kind of kid that was a movie buff?

Oh, yeah. You wanted to be Steven Spielberg when you were a kid. Give it to me.

When I was a kid growing up in West Virginia, I mean, for as long as I can remember, I love movies. I love TV.

I love the entertainment business in general. And all I ever wanted to do was make movies. And I mean, for as far back as I can remember, five, six years old.

Like that was my dream. And now here I am, you know, 41 years later. And it's my life. And it's awesome to kind of see just how this all came to be.

So you're 41 years old. 46 years old. 46. So at five. Got it. Okay. So so what about West Virginia? I don't think that is like L.A.

Hot bed of entertainment. Yeah. Like what's the hot bed of the entertainment business? And this is now, you know, 40 years ago, right? 35 years ago.
