Episode 1103: Emmy Winning Actor and X-Games Gold Medalist - Kristos Andrews and Miami Alternative Rock Band - Cannibal Kids

11X Daytime Emmy Award winning Actor and X-Games Gold Medalist, Kristos Andrews joins JUST TALKING to discuss his transformation from skateboarder to actor to director and producer.  From Dog-Town to the X-Games Kristos was inspired by big risk takers like Jamie Thomas “Leap Of Faith” and Jereme Rogers, giving rise to viewing the rogue “street skater” as an athlete meets Rock Star icon — it’s “rebel culture by nature.” Skateboarding is an art and your skateboard is your brush — push limits, take fears as a challenge…enjoy the process of failing forward.”  Kristos is well known for the character Pete Garrett on The Bay.  Kristos is still hungry and passionate about the next part of the journey — “You’ve got to think ahead and when you can—take that leap of faith.” Watch The Bay on Amazon Prime: https://www.amazon.com/The-Bay-Season-1/dp/B07Z9T13J4

Miami Indie-alternative Rock Band Cannibal Kids lead singer/songwriter Damian Gutierrez joins STRIKE A CHORD to discuss their latest hit track Jeans.  So, why the band’s name Cannibal Kids?  Living in the city we all become “Urban Explorers.” Cannibal Kids explored an abandoned, scary as hell place while just a little high—“we were in a place we shouldn’t have been.”  There’s been a crime!  Call Miami Vice!   Their latest track Jeans opens with the lyrics “Maybe it’s time that I open up a pair of jeans just to say what’s up!”  Opening your jeans for love can be scary.  But don’t worry!  The track Falling in Love at Wii Sports Resort has a great synth pop beat.  According to the Cannibal Kids — “the future is digital, fall in love with a computer—BUT only if you have a high speed fiber internet—OR the Love Connection will be disconnected. This pandemic has got us anxious and questioning our sanity at the same time. Cannibal Kids Go Outside is the perfect track to describe how we’re all feeling right now. Support. Follow.
