Exploring the elements of authentic storytelling

Everyone Needs Mags Miller

The theme of the show, and this episode in particular, is brand, culture and the unexpected. Mags Miller, director, producer, and storyteller, is the perfect encapsulation of our theme. Mags is a Global Citizen who grew up in Nigeria, Tanzania and Zimbabwe. Over the past 20+ years she has worked on numerous Discovery Network and NatGeo TV shows. She’s embedded with the USMC in Afghanistan, navigated through hoarders’ homes, chronicled the lives of survivalists in the wilderness, directed a variety of personalities and has eaten delicious food in amazing locations. Hear her stories, including her time in a Nigerian prison with Tom, understand her “Do No Harm” policy, and appreciate the way she approaches storytelling that creates a space to allow people to open up.

"Unglossy: Decoding Brand in Culture," is produced and distributed by Merrick Creative and hosted by Merrick Chief Creative Officer, Tom Frank, hip hop artist and founder of Pendulum Ink, Mickey Factz, and music industry veteran, Jeffrey Sledge.
