    If you live in the Myrtle Beach area, you're probably familiar with a man named Greg Rowles. Greg is a popular entertainer in the area, and has had a lucrative career. Winning the popular television program Star Search in the 1990's, he is perhaps best known in the area as the longtime emcee for the Alabama Theatre in the popular Barefoot Landing shopping and entertainment center in North Myrtle Beach. And in April, he opened the Greg Rowles Legacy Theater, which is also in North Myrtle.

    This week, he talks with Matt about his career, as well as how he defines character - and certain traits of the 7 Degrees - in both his profession and personal life.
