Episode 9: The Gift of Gab: A Chat with Spirited Storytellers

In this spirited interview, VIE Book Club host/VIE magazine editor Jordan Staggs chats with Madison Shirley, a gifted storyteller and the vice president of Chef Jim Shirley Enterprises, which owns and operates many restaurants along the Northwest Florida Gulf Coast. As friends and fellow creatives, Madison and Jordan talk about the art of storytelling from a macro level as it relates to everything from Shakespeare to Star Wars, books to brand-building. Everyone has a story to tell, and we loved hearing Madison’s and talking about all the stories being told through the food and atmosphere at her family’s restaurants.
