This week on the show we have something a little different, I'm putting my journalism degree to good use and interviewing a cat.. and I'm only half joking when I say that. I'm talking about Nala, the most followed cat in the world.

This week on this show we have Jessie Paege, a 19 year old artist originally from New Jersey who built her following initially on YouTube. Jessie started her channel when she was 14 as a form of expression after suffering from social anxiety and bullying at school. It's actually kinda hard to believe sitting across from this chatty individual with bright colors all through her hair that she once deemed herself to be a mute, but she has since dedicated herself to being an example to all the kids out there suffering from the same thing that you can turn it all around and be whoever you want to be. Jessie transformed a few goofy YouTube video uploads into a digital empire with 81 million views, a clothing line, two books, several acting roles and a cult following in the millions. And this is how she did it.

We invited 20 of Ricky's biggest fans to come to our studio in Hollywood and get involved and participate in his interview. After a great chat with Ricky, we handed the mic over to the fans for a Q&A and then Ricky did his own interview with LA based band TWINKIDS who also performed a few songs. Enjoy!
On this week's podcast we have a super interesting creator by the name of Vidya Vox. Vidya was born in Chennai, India and moved the US at the age of 8. She started her YouTube channel in 2015 uploading song mashups that mixed western pop, dance music and indian classic music. Vidya gained 1 million subscribers within the first year after her mashup of Major Lazer's "Lean On" and a Punjabi folk song went viral. Now, in 2018 Vidya's channel has 4.7m subscribers and over 450 million views. She swooped into our Castbox studio in Hollywood recently and explained where the idea came from, the challenges she's faced being an immigrant in the US and how she's managed to turn the channel into a full time job. Enjoy!

On this week's podcast we have a two part episode with a couple characters that know their way around a dance floor by the name of Matt Steffanina and Alyson Stoner! Considering that Matt currently holds the title for the most watched dancer in the world and has over 1.5 BILLION views on his YouTube channel, and Alyson has achieved just about everything a 24 year old could possibly achieve, this combo definitely made for an interesting podcast. Enjoy!
