Tales From The Green Room ( our mission)

Tales from the Green Room is a podcast produced by Mt. Tam Media (MTM) and hosted by Dennis Strazulo and Tami Larson. But it’s more than a podcast—it’s a collection of magical, candid, backstage interviews and heartfelt moments with artists and musicians at festivals and venues across the country. Now, we’re inviting fans into the story, too, by capturing their voices—their own magical moments, and questions they’d love us to ask the artist. We believe the flow of creative energy doesn't begin or end with the performer. It lives in the space between—the pulse of the crowd, the silence backstage, the glance before a chord is struck. We differentiate ourselves by being right where it's all happening..backstage and among the fans. Our mission is to reveal the full arc of connection—from those who create to those who receive, and back again. With over 40 episodes published across all platforms and many more in the pipeline, Tales from the Green Room is evolving. We’ve entered a new phase of production, expanding into video, launching our YouTube channel, and preparing special video episodes—like our upcoming special dedicated to Grateful Dead co-founder Phil Lesh and his beloved Terrapin Crossroads. To date, we’ve recorded more than 100 interviews in nearly 20 different green rooms, including recent stops at NYC’s historic Capitol Theatre and the newly opened Garcias in Chicago. We’re in active talks with more artists, managers, promoters, and venues nationwide—and expect our reach to grow exponentially in 2025. In 2025, we’re creating custom partnership opportunities that aren’t just about brand visibility but messaging the world needs more of. We’re opening the door to bold, forward-thinking organizations, non-profits and mission-aligned brands to join us now—on the ground floor of something with undeniable momentum. If this resonates with you or your team, we invite you to connect. We're not bound by rigid ad packages or cold pitch decks. We’re here to co-create partnerships that make sense for everyone involved—especially the fans and artists whose hearts we’re helping to amplify.
