JEFF WILSON
MATT BUBBERS
Jeff Wilson is a producer with Emmy-nominated production company Echo Bay Media, known for travel productions like Departures, Descending, Into The Rising Sun, and Over the Horizon, enjoyed around the world on Travel Channel, National Geographic, Netflix and Discovery to name a few. The team’s adventures have enabled Jeff to experience Sudan, Djibouti, remote islands in Papua, and motorcycling across the Jordanian desert, although producing a culinary series in a 12th century French chateau was decidedly more comfortable. Jeff’s passion for travel is only surpassed by his love of machines and he’s spent the past dozen years sharing his award-winning photography and writing about cars, trucks and motorcycles in several notable online and print publications. When not behind the camera or keyboard, Jeff’s happiest behind the handlebars of a motorcycle, or the wheel of a sports car, exploring places he’s never been before, checking out the local culture and cuisine.
Matt Bubbers is a car critic and columnist who, for the last decade, has covered cars, culture, public policy, the auto industry and the (increasingly electric) future of transportation for The Globe and Mail and Sharp magazine. His work has also appeared in variety of publications throughout the U.S. and Canada, including CAA , Hagerty , Sotheby’s , Jalopnik , AutoTrader , Autoweek and, of course, here at VICARIOUS . His story about tracing the route of the Targa Florio through Sicily was nominated for a National Magazine Award in 2013. This job takes him to far-flung places to drive far-flung exotic cars, often around racetracks or over sand dunes or across frozen lakes. When not travelling on assignment, he’s at home with his family in Toronto, trying but mostly failing to maintain a garage full of needy old cars and an impulsively-purchased motorcycle. Yes, he knows he has the best job in the world and no, he doesn’t have a favourite car.
KRISTIN PITMAN
Kristin is the Social Media Manager for VICARIOUS Magazine, and the creator of The Delilah Blog - a lifestyle blog that has successfully grown a social media following across multiple platforms (IG: @thedelilahblog, TT: @kristin.pitman). Having these platforms has afforded her the opportunity to work with many different automotive companies over the years, and given her the hunger to learn (and drive) more. She is equally comfortable driving a manual transmission or the latest automatic tech. Kristin has a Bachelor of Music with a minor in English and a Master of Theological Studies. She and her husband Dave have two young kids, which gives her a unique perspective as she experiences and writes about each vehicle from that lens.
