In this episode, if you watch online drum videos then you will know our guest. With 1.6M Youtube subscribers 1.6M Facebook and  700k Instagram followers.

Drumeo founder and CEO Jared Falk. I've been watching Drumeo videos for few years and they always provide great free short little lessons as well as their membership to vast online resources to help drummers improve.

We discuss what it was like establishing and building Drumeo through doing the hard work and a little entrepreneur DNA, engagement with the Drumeo members and the drum community, VR drumming, Drumeofest and hockey.
He also provides words of encouragement to push yourself to continue self improvement on the drums.

And if you're not a drummer, they also Pianote and Guitareo

Let's kick this podcast off with a track of Jared playing at the Drumeo studios.

Here's the things we discuss in this podcast:

• What is something people don’t realize on how you got your start in drums and how you started Drumeo?
• Working on the family farm and duck sales, what was that like?
• Work/life/balance
• Since launching educational products and Free Drum Lesson’s site, you’ve been in contact with students from all over the world who share their issues with him – via email, chat, and/ or video.
  • How do you keep up with responding back to everyone?
• Starting with DVD’s then expanding into posting videos then streaming. Do you think the physical medium is dead or will  just become nostalgia like albums have become today?
• Drumeo has two podcasts, “The Gab” and “The Podcast”, what’s the difference between them?
• Favorite band is “Dave Matthews”, why hasn’t Carter Beauford  been on Drumeo yet?
• Canucks fan, still got time to follow hockey?
• Drumeo Fest AUGUST 14-15, 2021
• Rapid Five
  • Which Vancouver Canucks player (Henrik Sedin, Pavel Bure or Roberto Luongo)
  • Which Dave Matthews Band song do you feel showcases Carter Beauford?
  • Favorite family activity?
  • Worse feeling… busting a head in the middle of performing or can’t find a drum key
  • The movie Strange Brew, Yay or Nay
