back home to Michigan and 
built a podcast studio in his 
home in Royal Oak. As a pod-
cast producer and live sound 
engineer, he began doing 
live streams for concerts and 
events.
“I would reach out to artists 
on Instagram and try to film 
their concerts,
” Klein explains 
of building a business. “This is 
what I did literally every sec-
ond of my life.
”
Klein continued to teach 
meditation for the High 
Holidays, but mostly put the 
practice on hold to devote all 
his energy to podcasts. He 
worked in a freelance capacity, 
producing shows for different 
companies and even ran live 
sound for Sukkot Sounds, a 
project that took place with 
The Well around the holiday of 
Sukkot.

CALIFORNIA DREAMING
Still, Klein didn’t give up on 
his dream of one day reaching 
the West Coast. In the early 
months of 2022, he decided to 
move to Los Angeles. He con-
tinued to freelance and eventu-
ally landed his current role at 
Kast Media.
“I run sessions in our studio 
and also help run remote ses-

sions as well,
” he explains of his 
job. “I film and record audio 
and video for podcasts and 
help with studio gear.
”
Yet with a passion for live 
music, Klein is currently in the 
process of building a venue 
in his backyard to host live-
stream concerts. “It’s a cool 
little side project,
” he says.
Meditation is still in the 
background, Klein explains, 
but he hopes to return to his 
passion soon. Outside of work, 
he loves to hike, play tennis 
and see live comedy.
For now, Klein says he “feels 
humbled” by the trajectory 
he was able to take in life. “It 
blows my mind that I went 
from hosting my own shows, 
to filming on the road, to 
building my own podcast stu-
dio and then getting hired by a 
podcast network in L.A.
”
The process was both 
rewarding and challenging, 
and one that Klein navigated 
entirely by trial-and-error. 
Luckily, things worked out in 
his favor.
“It was like a really cool 
movie to watch,
” he says of the 
last few years. “I had to not be 
good for a little while and learn 
things that I’
d never done. It 
was new and exciting.
”

Klein worked hard to pursue his dream job to be involved with 
audio and video recording and podcasts.
