# Talk with Michael about The Chair with Michael Jackson

> Book 20 minutes with me. Most of these calls are about The Chair, my live interview show every Monday night at Guitars and Growlers in Flower Mound, where one person at a time sits down and we talk through the story of their life. If you were invited into the chair, or you applied and want to know more, this is where we start. Nothing is decided on this call. We just talk.
