Greta Van Fleet - Shocking Life Advice from Josh Kiszka 

This man is so profound but in an earthly way kinda. Like, he's so grounded but he has such different thoughts than your 'average human' about everything, and his thoughts are so refreshing to hear too. Absolute legend.

How is possible to be that cute, and smart and lovely...the voice, the smile.

This specific video truly captures josh and his magical energy/presence. He is honestly one of the most captivating beings I’ve witnessed. I can assure that every fan of him feels a closer connection now, even if from a distance! Melissa thank you for this video and for sharing this piece of josh with us, you are also such a bright light!

He seriously just has the purest soul. To have a heart to heart with him would be everything

I don't know how celebrities like Josh and the rest of GVF who treasure their privacy even deal with all the fan stuff. I would lose it, I think! But I have the feeling that at least Josh has his own way of keeping things in perspective. I think he's such an intelligent, thoughtful and well balanced soul, I could listen to him talk for hours. Thank you Melissa, once again, for presenting this series, and thanks Josh, for being such an enjoyable human being. All of us look forward to seeing all of you soon!

Josh is EVERYTHING, the full spectrum of light. The critical thinking and wisdom of an old soul, yet so young with his silly and goofy humor. He's absolutely beautiful inside and out. "A smile that can light up a room" doesn't even come close to describing the light that shines from him. The person that gets his love and devotion....I can't even describe how lucky that individual is.

In retrospect given that he was not out yet and you managed to pick up "you are probably into everybody"…… VERY intuitive! (very proud and happy for Josh)

It's hard to think that we aren't Josh's type... he is naturally charismatic, it's insane! 👀

josh is so beautiful in every way, especially energy. as an empath i can tell he is just the most pure human and would never purposely harm another being. he has such a bright, loving, and welcoming energy to him. it’s so interesting to see someone so popular have the exact same thought process as me and to see him look at the world how i do. it makes me so happy to know we have people like him in the world still and i’m not just alone. i would so love to meet him

I love Josh. I feel uncomfortable for him while she’s asking him about girls. And his type. Not his type. And I love that he’s able to love who he wants today🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈

Every girl think you are there type… omg! Now I get it! So proud of you Josh❤

It cracks me up when they laugh in synch, i love Josh!

wait melissa, can you do this with the rest of the boys??

Love you both so much 😊 Thank you for making this interview possible. You're both so entertaining and uplifting, I look forward to more GVF content. I hope to one-day be able to see the boys and yourself perform 😊 I'd love to see the un-edited version of the interview!!

I really loved these interview conversations. I laughed and learned things. Your relationship and connection to this band and family is truly lovely and very special. These will be memorable times to look back on and cherish and value. You and the people of your community are so fortunate to have these thoughtful and amazingly talented people and what you and your community is doing and wants to do to acknowledge them is remarkable. No wonder they have such huge hearts for hurting/healing people, because they seem to come from a wonderful hometown.

What a great interview Melissa! You two are so comfortable with each other. You bring out things that other interviewers don’t. I would love it if you would interview each of them separately!! And I look forward to seeing you on tour with them 😃

he seems so genuine, his singing makes me so happy

thank you Melissa first for interviewing this band and their families but also by being genuine and allowing them to be genuine too! So often interviews feel like forced and rehearsed and you just get deep but also humorous! much love ❤️

Melissa thank you for this great series of interviews! Thank you Josh and GVF for sharing your immense talent with all of us. Josh's songwriting and his message is resonating with so many people in a profound way! He's such a bright light and wonderful human 😊

Melissa~ I am so glad I came across your channel👏🏽💕👏🏽💕 I am a GVF fan since 2016 and I really enjoyed these interviews! Super cool! Thanks for making them happen!! If you all are ever in York PA please come to visit and drink off camera🎊💖🎊💖 we are quite the music loving, drinking kinda crew 💖CHEERS AND BLESSINGS🙏🏽💕

Awesome statement! "Fuck fear and live your legend through the intelligence of love". Not trying to be a suck up, however, that is a great motto. Have been trying to incorporate more of that in my life over the past couple years. Nicely said.

Thank you, Melissa, 🌹, fantastic, as always. Love to you and Joshua from 🇭🇷 🌊

Fun conversation. I almost spit coffee on my keyboard. Thanks for the upbeat and positive energy.

I love how respectful he is and how genuinely kind he seems, and by the way his smile melts me. I wish I could meet him and really get to know him as a person, I think that would be amazing. 🥰

The tone of the whole interview is fantastic. It felt like being included in a personal conversation. You guys mesh to well. Can't believe I've spent all this time not knowing about Josh & his band, especially considering I've lived in southwest Michigan my whole life. Apparently my husband knew about them & didn't tell me lol. People are holding out on me! 😆

Once again, doing an amazing job with a Josh interview. He is so genuine, smart, and adorable. I love your approach with this interview, it just seemed like being in the basement having a conversation. Loved it! I truly believe all of Greta Van Fleet as so kind and for real. Both sets of parents are also so nice. No wonder they turned out the way they did. Rooting for you to get to go on a gig with them. That would be so fun.

It’s so hard to come across genuine people nowadays. You can totally feel how passionate and genuine GVF are about life and music! Totally love the energy ❤️

Tks for this Melissa. I love ❤️ keeping up with the guys. I’m an old Detroit hippie living in Nashville. I moved down here in early 06 to get away from the winter. Plus Nashville is what Detroit use to be back in the day. I did it all. ✌️ to you all back there. 🖖👍

I started the morning with this and now I'm happy. Queen Melissa doing her thing💖

Josh and the others are the same age as me (and coincidentally grew up in a town a half hour from me), yet they seem so much more connected with the universe than anyone I’ve seen. I only discovered them a week ago, but I feel like I’ve known them my whole life. Their first two albums were outstanding, but their new album is literally if life, itself, had its own soundtrack. I’m so grateful for them. 💛

A stack of thanks to both of you for letting us listen in on this fun conversation. And, oh to be a fly on the wall when the tequilla was finished! (Nothing is ever enough for us, is it? 😂. Wonder if they feel that way, sometimes...) Oh, and thanks Josh, for calling Jake out on his...um, appetite. LMAO!! Seriously, this was very satisfying, as well as fascinating, intriguing, entertaining and heart-warming. Yes, Melissa, lets do it again! ✌💗&🤝

wow. He seems like a wonderful human being. I don’t know how else to describe it. He just seems so genuine and loving of everyone and everything. Makes my heart happy to know I support someone like this.

Completely drawn to all the gifts the whole tribe owns ♥️ much love and protection. Keep it up. I'll be standing in your power one day along the way. Don't stop until you are full of self.

he’s so good with his words and he’s so unique i love him 🥹🥹

Josh has changed my life! After singing through the new album countless times my vocal range has improved SOOO much! He has the most unique and beautiful voice. Honest to God, he embodies all that is good about music and has made me a better musician. I will always be indebted to GVF. Bucket list dream would be to sing a duet with Josh! Haha A girl can dream!

I knew these young men were down to earth:) I really love the fact that they're from a small town in Michigan, my boyfriend is a musician as well and he's from Lansing, and he has similar values as these young men! They have really good manners and respectful towards others:) Hopefully the limelight doesn't change that!

Tons of love for Josh. Wonderful person 🥰

Life advice from a legend . Thank you so much Melissa you're a saint💖💖💖

He is just a sweetheart .. Thanks for this

Oh, bless you two rays of sunshine!

Great interview! Made me smile :) Greetings from Franconia (Franken), Germany 💚

i’ve become so unironically invested in these interviews with these two people and it’s making my life better

He’s so genuine and insightful

Love you both so much hahahaahha i loved the interview!

josh is so pure and genuine i couldn’t imagine his presence in my own he’s just so about peace and civil essences

much needed, ty

Oh my gosh, I meant to write this earlier but Melissa, what a great time I had watching all 3 of these chats. Interview just seems too rigid, esp for 2 friends just chilling and having fun. I'd really love to see you have a little tête-á-tête with Jake in such a fashion... I am thinking would also be really fun. I subscribed to your channel for these... thank you so much Queen 👑🌼❤🦋

Must have been awkward for him with the 'female fan stuff' questions.. I guess it wasnt obvious to a lot of folks what his type was. Glad that's cleared up now 😊

That was really really cool - thank you, loved it, from South Africa

What a wonderfully nice interview. Melissa is super cool. Josh...I'm lost for word, so I'll quote Elton John: pretty-eyed, pirate smile... That smile.... ****____________________****

Melissa!!!! I love your bubblyness...is that even a word....🙃? Our whole family of 3 generations (16 yrs to 68 yrs) loves this band So 2 things: 1.) 100% agree that you should be the opener for GVF. 2.) Love your idea of a Greta Van Fleet Street. Picture this.... for the new Frankenmuth street idea named after GVF should be like the iconic Freemont st in Vegas made for foot traffic: pubs, billiards, restaurants, vinyl & music instrument store, live music, fresh food market, thrift store, comedy club, board games lounge, and a large bonfire pit. Can't wait for more of your GVF content. Cheers with Canadian Beers! 🇨🇦 🍻

In fact josh broke the media and my mind

Thanks to both of you for brightening my day. I love GVF. You have turned me on to Rock & Roll again. I’m seeing them in Chicago September 3rd! Come say hi, Josh…I’ll be the one waving 👋 😉

Josh is my favourite person ever, Melissa when you see him again tell him he’s the best 😂❤️

This interview just made my day. Josh just radiates sunshine ☀️

Once a week I have what I call GVF Friday…it’s my day to soak up the music and lyrics that puts everything back into perspective. Watching an interview with these talented young men is an always added bonus! Good job Aunt Mel ! 😂👍❤️

That cheesy smile gets me every time. LOL Thanks AGAIN Melissa! This one was really special.

Josh is just such a beautiful person

Lovely Melissa and Josh! Thank you a million times for these fun interviews. Fuck fear and live your legend through the intelligence of love- Josh Kiszka

Thanks for the inspirational kickoff to my morning! Well done, Melissa!! “Fuck Fear” .... here’s to jumping into it! 🍻 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I love Josh so much. I could stare at him all day!! His mouth is just so perfect

Im definitely making his quote a tattoo! What a lovely interview. Melissa’s reaction 😂

I love this chat. Where is part 4,5,6,7 and so on?😜✌

seeing josh’s love for humanity is so beautiful, and that reminds me of another artist I also love very much, AURORA that is. i always thought their music have a similar vibe. thanks for this interview Melissa! 🥰❤️

Melissa, I have to rewatch these to catch some of your lines. You’re so funny and that gets lost a bit when everyone is focused (understandably 🥰) on Josh. I, too, would give my left leg to clean their toilets. 😃 😆

Namaste Josh!!! When you get to Nepal, hike the Annapurnas and the Solu Khombu. Well done Melissa. Cheers.

Great fun,. Aunt Mel! I want more

What fun! BTW guys we're still waiting, not so patiently, for the live videos of Caravel, The Barbarians and Weight of Dreams 🤘

Love you ,JOSHUA !

It’s so easy to forget that the guys and other people in the media, are human and still need privacy and space to be human. There are good people in the world, but when I see someone like josh be so real and down to earth on social media and in interviews I get so excited and I just wanna interview the band and ask them how they are doing and what this tour has been like during these circumstances. It sounds boring I’m sure to just wanna see how they are doing physical and mentally, because it’s hard to find such gems like them. I don’t want them to be overwhelmed by everything and I want them to feel respected and loved by the whole peaceful army.

OH MY! I could watch and listen to the two of you for hours! This was way too short, but long on fun! You love him like we all do and it shows. I know this may sound a little creepy, but what's he like off camera? Is he upbeat, fun and cracking wise like he is on cam? You've hugged him several times - does he smell like a forest, a lake, patchouli? 😂 These interviews make me so happy and I hope you DO tour with them - you'd be AWESOME!!! 🥰🔥🥰🔥

Imagine an interview with a fan 🤯 especially one that has a fan account or something since the boys are slightly detached from social media. I think it would be such a cool perspective 😜

He seems like the coolest person ever 😭

Just a thought, Melissa....get your fanny down to Nashville and entertain us at the meet up. You know darn well that Aaron is going to be lurking in the area for this concert!! 😎.

You will break the internet for sure. But only because you’re phenomenal!!

I love this man and Im old enough to be his mom. How do Karen and Kelly make such beautiful children?

You did break the internet 😄👏🔥

What a cool ass dude. Seems humble & down to earth.

I'm so in love with him

He is a hero c: , I LOVE HIM SO MUCH💛

it's actually mind boggling how much he looks like my ex boyfriend, but personality wise, empathy wise, brain wise; they are complete opposites. my ex was cold, harsh, emotionless. josh is so warm, open and genuine.

Yes Josh!! Action cures fear!!

He's very excited to be where he is. It must be a lot of fun.

Followed you from your drunken night tiktok. Seems interesting enough.

I’m freaking praying that I’ll be able to meet him someday, I would be able to die happy

I a little late I wish I could meet them As an almost 60 year old mom n granmom I haven’t heard Rock like this since 70,s I was going to April show in AC but it’s canceled due to jake condition Brought back memories and true artistic music and the experience we haven’t been able to capture in last few decades of rockn roll music Melissa ask him ?,s but let him answer them plz Your great but you were basically asked n answered !!! May be that hood beer lol So we can learn more about him n group Ty for this interview though

I remember thinking that Greta Van Fleet was a band of the 80s and then being unable to process the fact that they are so young. Their music is genuinely some of the best music released in the last couple of decades. But in addition to their unbelievable talent, to say that these guys' personalities and the way they have approached their careers has really impressed me is an understatement. They give me hope for the future of music and artistry. We are all tired of the hollowness and industrialization of music, and seeing what they stand for is the biggest inspiration one can ask for as an artist. It's all about the music, the message, the art, the LIVE experience of music and making the world a better place. The fame, the manufacturing of music, the money, the stupid pretensions and the absurdity of the "celebrity world" is all bullshit. Hopefully their amazing career paves the way for some real artists with some real honest music to follow. Thank you for giving us an insight into Josh's mind, he and his brothers (danny included) are exceptional people.

Ok Melissa, if you remember me from the last comment section, I have a question for you: how did you know I’d love this part? You almost scare me.. 😂 “Fuck fear and live your legend through the intelligence of love” is my favorite quote.. he said it for the first time some months ago in an interview, I think, and ever since I heard it, it’s always been on my mind and written on a paper on my wall, where I can always see it and be inspired by it. Also: “everybody is his type?” Thank you for saying that, now I’m a happy girl! 😂 I’m starting to think that everyone in the peaceful army is “their type”, because we love them and understand them and believe in what they do.. There’s always a lot of love spreading from them that you feel loved somehow.. I don’t know if this makes sense, but yeah.. I’m so glad you had this little chat with him.. I wouldn’t call it an “interview”, it’s more like a nice, funny and honest conversation between friends, so thank you for sharing it with us all. I like to think this is the “real Josh”.. Can’t wait to see you opening for them (yep, it must happen!) and please make sure you tour worldwide! 😉❤️

When Melissa said he doesn’t have a type, that gave me hope 🥺

I love hearing him talking about life and career, I love how fame doesn't come first and act up on it. And that's why a lot of celebrities leave the spotlight is cause fame is all they ever think about and when something doesn't go their way they leave cause they think their life is over. I really like how they just act like funny,normal guys that I could talk to all day of anything. And yeah I agree,there are some tik tok accounts who are probably young 13 year olds saying "oh Josh can run me over with his car" or even going as far as taking photos of possibly his car or probably someone else's and claims "omg I just saw his car" I'm like..uhhhh OKAYYY THEN. But they adore their fans no matter what. They have a widespread audience of all ages. When I went to a rock concert it was Def Leppard and Journey and I had to be the youngest one there I was 17 or 18 and the rest of the crowd were probably around my parents age lol. Yeah but to see people of all ages in the fandom is pretty cool. Especially seeing those who either young grew up on rock music from their parents,or just getting into it or maybe rock music is not really their thing but when it is its GVF. So it's cool to see that young generations are getting into it rock music will never die!

I love them sm

he’s so beautiful. i think i love him 🙄

aweswome Melissa!!!!!!!

These guys are a nice addition to the long list of great rockers from Michigan.

Josh is beautiful in every way!! Another completely beautiful and talented human is Dimash, if you haven't heard of him check him out, start with SOS, it will blow you away! A completely different genre but so super talented (oops did I say that already?) hailed by many as the best singer in the world and I would be hard pressed to disagree. The same as with GVF I was instantly hooked the first time I heard him.

I'm gonna need another one of these🙏 Josh, if you can hear this comment PLEASE DO ANOTHER GET TOGETHER WITH MELISSA thank you

Lucky I’ve always wanted to meet him

Ciao Melissa. Now, could you interview the other guys? One a week.....🤩😻💕

At 1:00 he mentions breaking the internet. He broke Tiktok for a week.

Everyone compares this band to Led Zeppelin, and they should, but listen to Rush too, Geddy singing Bytor and the Snowdog comes to mind.
