Biography
Michael Gordon Weist III (born 25 July 1996) is an American talent manager and producer. He is most infamously known for managing the failed YouTuber convention, TanaCon, with Tana Mongeau. The event was cancelled just hours after it began as the event oversold tickets to the venue's capacity and attendees were stuck outside for hours in hea. Following the events, Weist filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy and dissolved his talent management company, Good Times Entertainment.
