The Accidental Accountant, Peter Margaritis, was my special guest on Episode Nine of Jason Michaels TV. Peter is a professional speaker, improv virtuoso, podcaster, author, and all-around nice guy. We discussed how he uses improv to teach leadership to organizations and people. It was a fun conversation with some fascinating insights.

I had too much fun visiting with my friends Christian and Katalina on today’s show. We chatted about how they developed their unique performing style, about why they enjoy performing shows on military bases, and how they have had such incredible success with their Mind Tripping Show decade-long residency at the Indianapolis Hilton. We even had a special guest pop in to the live-stream to provide a few additional laughs!
Talking to Decision Performance Specialist and Keynote Speaker Steve Haffner was fascinating. We had an insightful discussion on how to make smarter, better, more informed decisions in life and during this COVID-19 pandemic.
Steve also shared an amazing demonstration with two boxes where one box fit inside the other, until the other box fit inside the first. You’ve got to see it to believe it (at 43:28 on the video.)
In my "3 Minutes on Resilience" segment (43:50) we explored the idea of developing grit and how to get “gritty.” And finally, I debuted a brand new magic performance video! (58:15)
It was great fun to visit with my friend Nathan Coe Marsh on Episode Six of Jason Michaels TV. We learned how he fell in love with entertaining audiences, chatted philosophically about being an artist and an entertainer, heard some fun stories from his time on the road, and even saw some magic! I really enjoyed his thoughts on how he works with his clients to craft unique experiences for his audiences.
I also thought it was so cool of Nathan to provide access to us to watch his full show direct from the Magic Castle. If you would like to see him work for a live audience in an exclusive Hollywood members-only club, click here watch the video.

Episode Five of Jason Michaels TV was, in my opinion, outstanding! I tried out a new video streaming software and really enjoyed using it. The technical execution on my side of things wasn’t perfect, but I think that episode five is the best so far from a production point of view.
Having one of my best friends, Stephen Bargatze, as my guest was special. We discuss all sorts of topics. We start talking about our travels together entertaining the men and women of the military deployed to overseas bases. After that, we chat a little bit about his style of comedy and magic and we watch a few of his performance clips. We also go into his personal story of triumph over tragedy and how his faith his influenced his life.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, everyone in the live events business has been forced to re-think “business as usual.” It was the realization that I was going to be spending a lot more time at home than normal that birthed the idea of creating Jason Michaels TV.
My idea for Jason Michaels TV was to combine the livestreamed performances that so many entertainers were doing with my own “talk show.” (I use the term “talk show” very loosely here!)
This is Episode One, my first attempt, at creating something that would be a fun distraction for everyone who is currently stuck at home, too. Enjoy! (And feel free to tell me what you think!)
