Fascination Street

by steve owens

Fascinating People, Fascinating stories.
If you're like me, you love to find out how people got to where they are in life, what makes them tick, some of their hurdles, and what made them think they could do it.
If so, then join me every Monday as I 'take a walk down Fascination Street' and get to know the stories behind people from every walk of life. "Streetwalkers" include: actors, authors, directors, musicians, pop culture icons, social activists, athletes, screenwriters, comedians, artists, podcasters, CEO's, and even an astronaut!
New episodes every Monday, and sometimes a bonus one too!

A few months ago I was in Las Vegas and saw an article in the local paper about a guy who started an Indie record label where he ONLY releases Cassette tapes of artists. I stopped what I was doing and immediately reached out to him for an interview... and he politely agreed. Super nice guy, fun interview and there is a GIVEAWAY!
Send me an email at [email protected] with the subject "Giveaway" and the first 5 people will get either a cassette or a vinyl 45 sent to them by me, for free, no strings.
