The Boys & I The Boys & I

The Boys & I drop in at our old stomping grounds at Machinima to visit those dang ETC and Realm boys, our buddies and pals, Ricky and Shibby.

Better go ahead and CALL YOURSELF A PARAMEDIC IN ADVANCE THO because you’re basically about to mainline the sordid history of Machinima and ETC, whether or not it’s better to be an independent entertainer or a company man with more resources (but also more responsibilities), what it’s like to outgrow your own content, how to deal with a toxic audience, the darkest timeline for ETC and SourceFed (aside from, you know, cancellation), why the political left is eating itself and lots more stuff all wound up into one single podcast (sorry, TALK SHOW) that’ll make you LOSE YOUR FUCKING SHIT MAN WHOO

You want conspiracy theories? We got em! You want obtuse metaphors for the shrinking center in American politics! Got em! You want some broad career advice from four dudes with incredibly specific jobs in a rapidly imploding industry? GOT EEM!

The Boys & I are back from hiatus with an audio-only episode about careers on YouTube! We’re joined this week by our esteemed guest, Filup Molina from New Rockstars, formerly of SourceFed Nerd.

The Boys & Filup have a frank conversation about some of the benefits and risks that go into building a career in online media either as a creator, producer, on-camera talent or any combination thereof.

Is it better to be the unseen and unknown hand behind the content? Or a slave to the always-on social media grind? Is it worth giving up on creativity for stability? Will digital ever be as fulfilling as traditional media? Is anything fulfilling? Are the boys having a mid-life crisis? The answers to all these questions and more will surprise you if you are the sort of person that is surprised easily!
