A bit more about Christophe He was born in Michigan and started seeing a dwarfism specialist at age 2. But, he never let his limitations stop him from following his passions. He college at Michigan State University then began working as a TV producer for local community stations. He started a rock band and played drums on toured the US and Europe for 6 years. He opened for Iggy Pop, Motion City Soundtrack, My Chemical Romance, Ok GO, and more. He left the band and moved to Hollywood to pursue music. Ended up getting work in the acting/film industry as an actor/stuntman for various productions. Notable productions I've worked on: Twin Peaks, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Oz: The Great And Powerful, Fresh Off The Boat, My Dinner With Herve, Insidious 4, He started a podcast a year ago called I'm Kind Of A Big Deal. It is about the unique lives of people affected by dwarfism. He interviews little people, and we talk about the successes, the struggles, the funny, and the actual day-to-day experiences they, as little people, face. His goal is to build a bridge between little people and the average height world. It was an absolute joy having Christophe on the pod and thank you so much for listening. I love you!
