How cool is this?!

Patreon interviewed me recently about what it was like to be stuck in a van producing content when the pandemic struck, and of course I couldn’t have been more excited to tell them all about it. We joined Patreon the year that it launched and never looked back, so it’s always a treat to be included in anything they’re working on.

Absolutely love how this video turned out, and I think you will too. Be sure to let them know in their comments what you thought of the solo tracks and/or which tracks in general are your favorites!

How one creator made money by watching movies alone in his van

Pretty Much It host Eric Striffler has been recording comedic commentary tracks for popular movies & TV shows for as long as Patreon has been around. For years he would travel around the country in his van, meet up with friends, watch movies, and crack jokes — then 2020 happened. Eric couldn’t see anyone or go anywhere. The beginning of lockdown hit right at the time Eric was running out of tracks to release. He knew he’d have to start recording solo but he just didn’t know if anybody would want to hear him make jokes alone from a van. So he did what so many creators had to do in 2020: he took a chance. Watch to see how Eric made 2020 work as a one-man show. #VanLife #CreatorLife #Comedy Learn more about Eric and his show Pretty Much It on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/prettymuchit And on Eric’s site: https://shop.prettymuch.it/ Check out some of Patreon’s other videos: The thing to remember about creative burnout https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0U4YeacBdk A stand up comic’s stage fright nightmare | STORY TIME https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bggU0kWL8nc CEO Jack Conte explains Patreon https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rwvUjAv6pxg Subscribe to our channel! https://bit.ly/3aDJK3C​ Visit Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/​ Follow Patreon: Facebook https://bit.ly/2WJbI5​ Instagram https://bit.ly/2KpEW7w​ Twitter https://bit.ly/2KvWpLs

Also this was a great Video! Been watching for around 4 years now I believe and have loved every track I've seen. Thanks for making great content; whether you're goofing around with the boys or on your own, and can't wait to see what the future holds for PMI.
