Shay & The Good People - 2nd Tuesday of the month @ Pete's Candy Store

13. The Power of Collective Effervescence with Matt Rodin

Shayna BlassComment

Oh, hi you all! Welcome back to Shay & The Good People podcast. Today I am talking to my friend, Matt Rodin. He’s an actor, musician, producer, heart-centered spirit artist, and I just love him. We got to know each other when I did his show, Urban Campfire. S&TGP was definitely inspired by that song circle show. We spoke at his apartment before he left to be on the Company national tour.

In this ep, we talk about:

  • Performing in our 30s

  • Coffee v matcha girlies

  • Matt IS Regina from Mean Girls

  • Hot Jews in media

  • Bonding through working Bar/Bat Mitzvahs

  • Shay as a Lady Gaga impersonator

  • The Jewish-Aries hustle

  • Matt’s podcast called “The Come Up”

  • Collective effervescence and being part of something bigger than yourself

  • The power of crowd work

  • How all humans have the desire to feel seen and heard

Matt Rodin played on the April 11th, 2023 show of Shay & The Good People.
