Ever wondered how social media influencers crack the code to massive growth? PrincessFrenxh pulls back the curtain on her remarkable journey from bartender to social media powerhouse with over 677,000 followers and 100 million content views.

The secret? “Dating the Algorithm.” PrincessFrenxh explains how treating social media platforms like romantic partners—giving them consistent attention throughout the day—yields exponential results. Her “breakfast, lunch, and dinner” posting strategy ensures maximum visibility across different audience segments. While most creators worry about posting too frequently, she boldly publishes 45 pieces of content daily across 15 platforms, strategically repurposing her work to maximize impact.

Another game-changer is her “Rule of Six” principle: the six people you surround yourself with determine your life trajectory within six months. When PrincessFrenxh wanted to transition fully into social media, she strategically connected with established creators, learned their methods, and integrated their practices. This transformative approach helped her go from charging $50 for promotional posts to building multiple income streams generating up to $40,000 monthly.

S2 E28 | Conspiracy, Cover-ups, and the CIA: Unraveling the JFK Assassination with Steve Fantetti

The assassination of President John F. Kennedy stands as one of America’s most pivotal and mysterious moments. In this riveting episode, attorney and author Steve Fantetti takes us deep into the recently released JFK files, exploring how various power centers – from the CIA to the mafia – had compelling reasons to want Kennedy eliminated.

E11 | Beyond the Mic and Into the Ice: Greg Wolf's Unscripted Journey from Local Radio to NHL Fame

Introduction

When it comes to personalities that embody the dynamism of the NHL, few can hold a candle to Greg Wolf, the electric in-game host for the Tampa Bay Lightning. From humble beginnings in Carrollwood, Florida, to the booming acoustics of NHL arenas, Greg’s journey is a tale worth telling. And that’s exactly what we did in our latest episode of Happy Hour Holidaze.

From Carrollwood to the Airwaves

Before diving into the world of sports entertainment, Greg had quite a different career trajectory. As a young adult, he worked at a pizza shop in Carrollwood with his older brother. Fate intervened during a seemingly ordinary pizza delivery to the Hooters radio show, where Greg got his first taste of radio magic.

From that point, there was no turning back. Greg switched gears, immersing himself in radio during his college years at the University of South Florida. His initial foray into radio started with internships at local stations, including the rhythmic sounds of Wild 98.7.

The Missions and Misadventures

Greg’s time as an unpaid intern was far from dull. His responsibilities included an array of errands that he transformed into adventures, almost as if out of a James Bond film. One of his most memorable exploits involved sneaking into the under-construction Raymond James Stadium, a story he tells with unmatched gusto on our episode.

But it didn’t stop there. Greg took another audacious step by trespassing into what was then known as the Ice Palace, now the Amalie Arena, the home of the Tampa Bay Lightning. These adventures, filled with adrenaline and a fair share of risk, proved to be formative experiences, shaping Greg into the daring and ever-so-entertaining figure we know today.

Finding His Voice at 620 WDAE and Beyond

Greg’s career picked up speed as he transitioned into the world of sports radio. He earned his spot at 620 WDAE, a station that served as a launchpad for his later endeavors. It wasn’t long before he was hosting his own radio show, the 3rd Leg Greg Show, adding another feather to his already brimming cap.

Conquering the NHL Arena

Greg Wolf’s career hit an all-time high when he seized the opportunity to become the in-game host for the Tampa Bay Lightning. His vivacity and sheer on-air presence breathed life into NHL events like the All-Star Game, the Winter Classic, the Heritage Game, and the Stadium Series. His story is an incredible testament to how passion, persistence, and the will to seize opportunities can catapult one into stardom, even in a field as competitive as the NHL.

Takeaways from Happy Hour Holidaze

Our time with Greg was more than just a trip down memory lane; it was a masterclass in resilience, ambition, and audacity. His unique experiences, ranging from the AM/FM wavelengths of Wild 98.7 and 620 WDAE to the electrifying atmosphere of NHL stadiums, serve as life lessons for anyone aspiring to make it big in their respective fields.

Whether you’re a fan of the NHL, an aspiring broadcaster, or just someone who appreciates an incredible journey from pizza delivery to international fame, this episode of Happy Hour Holidaze is a must-listen. So grab your favorite drink, sit back, and dive into this enlightening and entertaining experience.

Cheers! 🥂
