Hey My Friends
I am Christopher Rudder, a videographer, editor, podcaster, freelance writer, and owner of Rudderless Media in Toronto, Canada.
About Us
Together with my partner Gordana Grubor, we are day trip and road trip experts who, with our team, write high-quality, search-engine-optimized travel articles, itineraries and reviews for our websites, Road Trip Ontario and Rudderless Travel, and other online publications.
In addition, with everyone turning to video platforms like YouTube and TikTok, I am a skilled videographer and editor who can bring destinations to life. Plus, as an audio editor (with a sexy voice), you can find me hosting the Highway Highlights Podcast and co-hosting the Road Trip Ready Podcast with my co-host and long-time friend Danille Desir Corbett.
Life is a highway. But if you don’t get off it now and then, you’ll miss all the hidden gems—the best parts of the journey.
“I love this, and we are so proud of the partnership with you. Really enjoy this overview of Boston firsts and how you capture our blend of history and innovation. Your chats with Innovation Trail and exploration of Beacon Hill and our Black history are so captivating. Love the Roxbury Love Story piece with Collin and how you mix in culture, neighborhoods and culinary mentions. Closing with Covid vaccine is brilliant. And thanks for the Meet Boston shoutout!
Glad you didn’t find baked beans on the menu at Comfort Kitchen!”— David O’Donnell, Vice President of Strategic Communications, Meet Boston
