On August 16, 2016, two childhood best friends, Joe Findlay (That’s me!) and Todd Murray began the podcast, Miscast Commentary, a movie commentary podcast where the conceit is that neither of the hosts have anything to do with the films, except that they are passionate about the movies they watched growing up together.

Fast forward to 2021, when I started writing tech reviews for CGM, and saw the opportunity to expand my content into YouTube and streaming, adopting the name MiscastJoe, creating content aimed at gear for content creators. The expansion to new platforms allowed me to review new gear and showcase it in real-life scenarios.

In May of 2022, I had the opportunity to attend a media event for Walt Disney World’s 50th Anniversary. Walt Disney World is my favourite place on the planet, and this event provided me the opportunity to expand further, creating MisCast Members, which has evolved to become a Disney, Travel and Theme Park channel, with the same idea that, despite most creators in the space either being former Disney Cast Members or locals to the parks, I could give people the news and tips that they need through the lens of my own adventures.

But what was the biggest thing missing from these adventures? My family. To be able to share this with my wife, Carrie, and my children has been the greatest gift through all of this, and one of the greatest joys that we share on these adventures is food. That led Carrie and I to a joint venture, creating the shorts channel, Tastes Like Yes, dedicated to trying new things and sharing some of our favourite local eats.

While the four brands under the Miscast Media umbrella are different in their content, they all have one thing in common: sharing our story by connecting with the people we care about the most, all in the hopes that you can relive some old memories, create your own magic, make new discoveries and learn to tell your own story.
