Mainly using YouTube as a resource and driven by an unquenchable thirst for learning and accomplishing his goals, James has created a multi-tiered production company with numerous projects in the can or on the way! His marketing ideas using video for his band Far Beyond Redemption (FBR) were years ahead of today's IG Reels/Tik Tok video trends! Wait'll you hear the stories of how this played out and led to the creation of the Pull Ot And Run Podcast! Why is he wired like this? Growing up poor with a Peruvian immigrant mother and a self-taught 'do anything handy-man alcoholic father led to the beginnings of what drive James to this day.
