Today I am joined again by Sean Capri. Sean is the reason that I have made it as far as I have, and he has been an inspiration to me the entire time. He, and his cohost, recently killed off a very popular show and started a new one. I really wanted to talk to him about this move. The two of them have also gotten into some heated conversations, so we discuss how you can do that and stay friends.Follow Antonio: @seancapriCheck out his work:Twitch.tv/seancapri@TheXboxDrive@CuppaNintendo@WeTheGamerCastPatreon.com/YouMeCapriIf you have a content creator you think I need to talk to, let me know.Contact me @Jonny_Casino on Twitter
Today I am joined by Antonio, aka The HypeCaster. This guy is amazing. He has helped so many people, and he has so many great ideas. He encourages anyone who is making content to reach out to him. I think this is a great idea. You might not take every suggestion he makes, but I bet they will lead to ideas that you will use.Follow Antonio: @hypecasterCheck out his work:mixer.com/HypeCastermegadads.orgthenintendovillage.comtinyurl.com/y2cbzsp9If you have a content creator you think I need to talk to, let me know.Contact me @Jonny_Casino on Twitter
Today I am joined by Nick Edwards, from the Dadcade. The goal of the conversation was to get into content creating as a parent and not having other partners that have the drive you do. We ended up getting into self care a lot, and we bonded over similar work experiences. The best part of this entire episode is Nick talking about being a father of two girls!Follow Nick: @thedadcadeCheck out his work:thedadcade.commegadads.orgIf you have a content creator you think I need to talk to, let me know.Contact me @Jonny_Casino on Twitter
Today I am joined by Chase, aka SomeGuy. He and Bugman (last weeks guest) shut down their podcast and have moved on. Unlike Bugman, Chase isn’t creating content at the moment. I needed to talk to him and find out how he deals with cutting the content cold turkeyFollow Chase: @chasetherevCheck out his work:@SomeBugManIf you have a content creator you think I need to talk to, let me know.Contact me @Jonny_Casino on Twitter
Bugman is one of my favorite people. Talking to him, or even just listening to him, makes me laugh so much. I hope that you enjoy him as much as I do. I wanted to have him on to discuss life after ending a great show. Enjoy!!Follow Bugman: @BugMan_BradleyCheck out his work:boardgamecloset.com/@SomeBugManIf you have a content creator you think I need to talk to, let me know.Contact me @Jonny_Casino on Twitter
I met Garret recently at an Extra Life event, and I felt we hit it off right away. Before I asked him to come on, all I knew about him was that he’s active in the community I hang in, he’s great to talk to, and he is working on his PHD. I watched him stream and that emphasized how smart he is. He is the kind of streamer that will talk out his thought process and help the viewer understand what is going on. Enjoy!Follow Garret: @BlandExplosionCheck out his work:twitch.tv/blandexplosionIf you have a content creator you think I need to talk to, let me know.Contact me @Jonny_Casino on Twitter
James (JamsGams) makes some really great gaming YouTube videos. After meeting him and checking out his channel, I knew I needed to have him on the show. I was blown away by some of the games he has reviewed. As far as I go, I was very rusty. I hope you enjoy.Follow James: @jamsgamsCheck out his work:twitch.tv/jamsgamsyoutube.com/c/JamsGamsIf you have a content creator you think I need to talk to, let me know.Contact me @Jonny_Casino on Twitter
Lair and Sid join me today to talk about creating YouTube videos as a couple. I’ve thought about doing a podcast with my wife, but that just doesn’t look like its the best idea for me. These guys inspired me. Not to make content with my wife, but just to do more things together as a couple.Follow Lair: @LairGamingFollow Sid: @sydlesticusCheck out their work:LairGaming.comIf you have a content creator you think I need to talk to, let me know.Contact me @Jonny_Casino on Twitter
Dino joins me this week to talk about many different things. The initial purpose was to discuss being a Nintendo brand ambassador and partnering with brands, but we got into way more.

Chris joins me this week from one for the most successful indie podcasts I’ve ever heard. Married To The Games is a longer than average show, has four hosts, and talks about all the new games/news that many other shows discuss. I see those aspects of a show working against its success, but that is not the case for them. How have they been so successful? What is the secret formula? Sit back and get those answers from Chris.Follow Chris: @breadfan35Check out Married To The Games:@mttgcastmarriedtothegames.comPatreon.com/mttgopen.spotify.com/show/66V0C34DF…If you have a content creator you think I need to talk to, let me know.Contact me @Jonny_Casino on Twitter

Victor Lucas graced me with his presence to talk about taking Electric Playground (or EP Daily) from TV to YouTube. What a career this guy has had. Listening to this, it might help you see how it’s possible to start a TV quality show on YouTube. For me, it gave me insight on how to just break off and start your own thing as a profession. Either way, there is a lot to learn from Vic.Follow Vic: @Victor_LucasConsume Vic’s content:EPN.tvFacebook.com/VictorLucasFan …http://Instagram.com/Batwinghttp://YouTube.com/EPNtvIf you have a content creator you think I need to talk to, let me know.Contact me @Jonny_Casino on Twitter
