Morgan Ellis hosted guided food tours before producing a neighborhood culture podcast. Comfortable moving between scenes and languages, he blends beach-day ease with art-week savvy, surfacing standout eats, sounds, and events without the endless scroll.
From Little Havana’s ventanita stops and Calle Ocho matinees to Design District openings and Little Haiti drum nights, he maps nights that flow: where to park, when lines build, and the best late bites. Expect smart, locals-first picks, sunrise yoga, rooftop sets, pop-ups, and hidden waterfront hangs.

The Miami Local Unplugged Podcast is the audio companion to the Miami Local Unplugged online magazine, made for culturally curious locals and visitors who want more than the same old lists. Each week, host Morgan Ellis spotlights the best of Miami’s live music, festivals, neighborhood food finds, gallery nights, maker markets, and wellness pop-ups, with smart curation that helps you plan faster and explore deeper.
Expect quick, useful segments: a curated Weekend Shortlist (can’t-miss picks and why), Hidden Gem (an off-the-radar venue or event), Neighborhood Bite (standout eats, pop-ups, or chef notes), Local Sound (a band/DJ/venue spotlight), and Meet the Maker (bite-size chats with artists, chefs, and organizers shaping the city now). Whether you’re building a date night, a friends’ outing, or a full weekend itinerary, Morgan Ellis guides you to the experiences that feel most like Miami.
Episodes run 5 to 10 minutes, refreshingly no-fluff, always local, and packed with voices from the city’s creative community. Plug in on your commute, unplug from the scroll, and discover Miami one neighborhood at a time.
