What happens when a trailer-park kid with a camcorder, relentless hustle, and a little weed-fueled ambition dares to chase greatness?

In this episode, host Marisa Padilla flips the mic on her own producer — Jared Wigand, aka Producer WIGNZ — the creative force behind The MCP Project and a digital powerhouse who’s worked with Colorado’s biggest brands, gone viral more than once, and built not one, but two successful companies from scratch.

They talk raw:

• Growing up broke and building anyway

• Interning his way into KS107.5’s #1 morning show

• Lessons from South Park’s original film professor

• Losing everything — twice — and bouncing back stronger

• Buying “I’m From Denver” and scaling a media empire

• Co-founding Run Autopilot, a game-changing AI platform for creators and small businesses

It’s honest. It’s funny. It’s vulnerable. It’s everything The MCP Project stands for — mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual growth.
Whether you’re a content creator, entrepreneur, or just trying to make sense of your own journey, Jared’s story will remind you why you should never quit on yourself.
