How to Interview (like) a Rockstar with Grant Random

Today I'm sharing an interview with self-described On-Air Personality on SiriusXM and Idiot Grand Random. 

Grant has had  a long-time career in radio: In college he was hired to board op Christmas music for WLS-FM in Chicago when it was transitioning from Talk to Country music. He was at the controls the day the station flipped to "Kicks Country," which was really cool in a geeky radio kind of way.

He now hosts on SirusXM's Octane channel. 

Grant has interviewed some big names: from Billy Corgan to Marilyn Manson and many, many in between so as I transition the show into its fourth season, I thought it would be awesome to sit down with someone who interviews people for a living! We all need to get amazing information from people at work and in life...and doing it in a way that makes people feel comfortable and excited to share that information is a tremendous skill. So even if you don't work for a radio company, I suspect you'll find some gems in here...or at the very least enjoy Grant's sparkling personality.

Grant was kind enough to host me at Sirus XM's amazing studios in Midtown Manhattan and share some insights on how to interview people like a rockstar. 

Spoiler alert: Ask interesting questions, prepare...and do it, a lot!

Enjoy the conversation...
