Ep12: Travelling the World as a YouTube Poet with Steve Roggenbuck

Steve Roggenbuck is an American video poet who's most famous for his youtube videos, which really have to be seen to be believed. They're feature mostly self-recorded footage of Steve walking through the snow, the desert, a park, his house, a party, and talking / yelling directly to camera. I remember finding his videos in the dead of night, while I was tooling around on my computer, procrastinating from work, and just feeling like I'd been dropped into a confusing, amazing, uplifting, and very weird part of the internet.In this interview we talk about learning to be frugal, Steve's unshakeable belief in himself, and why you should learn from tech bros about content marketing.Check out the show notes for all the linky goodness for this episode at starvingartistpodcast.com/listenTo discuss this episode, head over to the Starving Artist Facebook Page (or Instagram or Twitter, or your local dog park) (bork bork)To support this show on Patreon go to www.patreon.com/honoreastlySee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The podcast takes us behind the curtain and into the machine room of contemporary artists, taking on everything from how to make a living from Instagram, how to negotiate a raise in the arts, to how to get out of your private freelancer tax shame.
