Thank you so much for this interview! Ben is an extremely talented professional, and he is so loved and respected in the Pentaholic community. We are so thankful for his work with the group, and for Kirstie's happy smile. ❤
Ben, I loved the 2 videos you made during the pandemic with Kirstie.....especially the musical. Well done! Your combine vlogs of PTX's Winter tour, was awesome. I really enjoyed seeing all of them one after the other. Jacob, you are a great interviewer.
Jacob! I am so happy for you on interviewing Ben. When discussing your shorter term goals, and staying in the moment before you play MSG. You are one step closer to getting that interviewing Pentatonix or a member of Pentatonix. First Ben Bram, then Ed and Ed again and now Ben H. Ben H, besides Ben Bram is about the closest you are going to get to Pentatonix before actually getting to Pentatonix. Not sure if you have noticed the comments that he is Kirstie's boyfriend...So I feel that THE interview is coming soon. So happy for you and great interview.
Thank you for interviewing Ben. He is very interesting. I enjoyed the interview very much. I love his short videos on RU-vid. "Alone On A Sidewalk" with Matt, is one that I play almost every day. I also love the ones with Kirstin. Ben has done an excellent job with the PTXperience videos and other behind the scenes videos. I love them. Also, he was an amazing Mr. Grinch on the Christmas tours. Great interview. Also, Thanks Ben. "Sound Of Silence" is incredible.
Loved this interview and how well it flowed! u guys seem to share a lot in common. It's so cool that you get to chat with such amazing people and hear all the unique pov's that go into creating the things that we love. And also like Ben mentioned, its about the little steps that had to happen to get to this awesome end result! Wishing more good opportunities to both u and Ben's ur way and can't wait to see who u interview next!
Wonderful insight for us Pentaholics to hear! Great questions and lively discussion. It’s fun when common ground is shared! His insight on the three reasons to take a gig could really apply to any career path. Thanks guys!
If you would like to see a couple of fun songs/stories that Ben and Kirstin did during lock down, check out HELLO PARODY SONG HASUDO, and GOOD MORNING QUARANTINE PARODY SONG HASUDO. Fun seeing how they passed the time during that period, and still managed to work on their skills.
The comment Ben made about the 3 types of gigs was so insightful and definitely something to think about. Also the advice of reaching out before reaching up, feels so difficult to do in the moment but is so true! He seems so chill and all of his advice was so thoughtful and honest. Might be my fav of ur interviews so far!
Man! He is so inspiring! His creative mind impresses me a lot. I think i would show this video to my students, when we are talking about what it means building a career. It doesn't mather you will be a cook, a teacher or a musician, you need to push yourself, to aspire for better and more, and be patient. It was a plesure watching this interview.
Excellent interview. Even as someone who has no interest in the business, I found this fascinating. Really inspiring how you guys are really passionate about your craft. Thanks for sharing.
I loved this interview. Thank you so much for doing it, I was sure you'd find it interesting talking to Ben, and he obviously enjoyed talking to you. Ben has a lot of wisdom and insight into the industry and between the two of you it was quite riveting viewing. It's great to have content that isn't actually a music reaction and you're doing these interviews so well. Keep up the good work, and thank you again.
Probably my favorite interview you’ve done! You both seemed really comfortable and the conversation flowed so well. These are always super interesting & I learn so much! Great work ❤️
Great interview Jacob! It was all very interesting. Ben is obviously a very talented, creative and intelligent young man. I have so enjoyed the work he's done with the members of PTX, both officially and on the side.
Wow!! So glad you landed this interview, Jacob. It was so good! I really appreciate the questions you posed. I’ve always been curious about Ben’s story and was so stoked when I saw this pop up. Ben, what an amazing talent you are. I have to agree with Jacob. Your story telling was really captivating and you are so informative and insightful. Hearing your story has helped me appreciate where I am in my journey. It really is a long haul and takes tenacity. You truly seem to have it, and I wish you the Best in your life’s adventures. Oh, and what an Amazing portfolio. Looking forward to checking out more to come. Thanks again, Jacob, for sharing all this greatness with us!!!
Great interview, Jacob. I really enjoyed the conversation. You should check out the 2 pandemic musical parody videos he made with Kirstin on his RU-vid channel. He's even in front of the camera in the second one.
Maybe making a short video featuring your dog 🐕, with the music as background and a link would work? For TikTok, I mean. 😅 Specially if the sniper has a lyric that matches something in the footage, idk 😅
I know this interview was a few weeks ago but this is the perfect video to ask, did you see Kirstin and Ben’s news that they are going to have a baby girl soon, Kirstin was and still is pregnant when you did this interview with Ben. I am so happy for them and I see how excited the other members of Pentatonix are for them, Scott and Mitch must be SO excited for Kirstin they have known each other since they were children themselves and now Kirstin is going to have her own child
Great interview Jacob! I love that you gave Ben the platform to talk. Some interviewers will ask a questions, let them say something and then dominate the conversation after that. Glad to see you and Ben have so many goals, I wish you both the best in all you do!
