Greg Shapiro Hosts CitizenM TV Episode 2
June 20, 2022
I must admit: when I’d hosted the first CitizenM TV, I’d never stayed at a CitizenM hotel before. For Season 2, I did my homework. I got to do an overnight ‘staycation' at the Amsterdam Amstel location. The concept for Season 2 was to show me warming up before the show - IN a CitizenM hotel room. Hence - WARNING: CONTAINS SOME MALE NUDITY.
Remote Meetings Are Dead – Long Live Hybrid Meetings! Greg Shapiro
March 7, 2022
In February I was called upon to do two separate events for Janssen Pharmaceuticals in Belgium - both remote meetings. Now that Covid restrictions are lifting in the Netherlands and Belgium, you might expect a return to 100% live events ! And you’d be wrong. Looks like hybrid meetings are the New Normal.
Greg Shapiro Hosts Second ‘CitizenM TV Show’
January 19, 2022
PRO-TIP: Your Livestream doesn’t need to be Live! Again, we had 3 days of production, with plenty of time for me to meet the C-level execs and get to know everyone - and get the best out of everyone.
Greg Shapiro Mini Standup Special ‘LEAVING TRUMPLAND’
January 4, 2022
I wrote a comedy show about America during Trump and during Covid. It’s called LEAVING TRUMPLAND. And it’s partly about how Trump and Covidiots killed my stepfather.
Most of my performance dates were cancelled due to Covid. But thankfully, a Dutch performance series asked me to perform part of my show for them, at the ITA International Theater Amsterdam. And here it is:

Q&A: Why EU Vaccine Strategy Is Not as Bad as You Think
May 19, 2021
On my YouTube channel, I have a long-running show called 'United States of Europe' - Making fun of the EU the American way. So of course, I had to make fun of the EU's comically slow Covid vaccination rates, as compared to the US and the UK. BUT along the way, I realized - it's not that simple. In fact, in many ways EU vaccination policy is not as bad as you'd think. Trendwatcher Vincent Everts liked the video and interviewed me about it.
Greg Shapiro Hosts 1st-Ever CitizenM TV Show
May 14, 2021
For the CitizenM TV show, the Livestream doesn't need to be Live! We had 3 days of production, with plenty of time for me to meet the C-level execs and get to know them. We pre-recorded the transitions, and I spoke in the voiceovers. The priority on-set was to keep the vibe of a normal offsite event, as much as possible. And yes, the top management were way too dry in the first take. But with a couple of retakes - and me more actively engaging them - the managers managed to loosen up and feel like they were talking to their team, in person. I really appreciated hearing it back in the comments, like "You made us feel comfortable Greg, it was a joy. Many thanks!"
Greg Shapiro presents HOW NOT TO ZOOM
May 28, 2020
A couple weeks ago, I got a phone call: “Could you do 10 minutes of comedy for our weekly video conference, about video conferencing?” I said YES. And it was such a hit, I’ve now developed a 10-minute package I call HOW NOT TO ZOOM.
