About this listen

 The Average Joe with Chip Michaels

The podcast for the man who has it all... or at least has a moderate amount of it and a mortgage he doesn’t fully understand.

Join Chip Michaels as he dives deep into the shallow end of the pool. This isn’t a show about tech titans, Olympic gold medalists, or people who actually enjoy waking up at 4:00 AM to drink kale smoothies. This is a celebration of the extraordinarily ordinary.
