Quartzsite Bullseye

What’s a Quartzsite Bullseye. Check out Quartzsite-Bullseye-Bob Davis Podcast 1146 for all the details.

But I’ll fill you in.

Content Creators

To begin with content creators thrive on active audiences that watch and listen to their content…

And subscribe.

Grateful

Above all we are grateful for the listens, views and subscriptions.

We’ll Take The Help

In short anything that can help our fledgling channels grow.

Active Audiences

Significantly every now and then we stumble onto a small and active demographic which for some unknown reason our content “was made for”.

Thousands Of Views

The result can often be tens of thousands of views and a boon to all the other platforms we’re on. This just happened to me and if you want to see the video click here.

This happened to me here in Quartzsite, Arizona this fall.

Phenomenon

So my code word for this phenomenon is “Quartzsite Bullseye”.

Gangbusters

On the other hand fleeting success suddenly changes to gangbusters.

Surprising the content creator.

The The Chase Begin

Hence he or she begins to chase something called an algorithm.

After that known as the carrot.

Painting Oneself Into A Corner

All of the sudden our content creator is sucked into painting himself into a corner…

In the final analysis, with the same content over and over.

Small Overall Audiences

Because that kind of content gets views, shares, likes and subscriptions.

All in all is this good for the content creator?

No Thank You

I’ll take the views.

But in the long term I refuse to fall into that trap.

Controversy In The Grand Canyon State

In detail I’m down here in Arizona.

Where in fact there is quite a controversy underway about a proposed fee increase of over 300 percent for seasonal fees to use Bureau Of Land Management Long Term Visitor Areas.

Comments

Furthermore as I watch this situation unfold let’s say I have fielded hundreds of comments as well, most of which haven’t been very enlightening.

By all means this is discussed in Quartzsite-Bullseye-Bob Davis Podcast 1146.

Nomad Life’s Deteriorating Condition

Afterward we’ll talk about the state of nomad life.

Comedy Is A Funny Business-Joleen Lunzer-Podcast 686

On any given weekend in this country local comedy clubs are full. Comedy TV shows and tours are big business. Breaking in to the comedy business, though, is no joke. Find out why in Comedy Is A Funny Business-Joleen Lunzer-Podcast 686.

Doing What You Love Is The Hardest Thing

Moreover, one of the themes of the Bob Davis Podcasts is following your passion. Sometimes doing what you love is the hardest thing. When it comes to the entertainment business, stand up comedy has to be one of the most difficult pursuits to succeed in.

Comedy Is Big Business

Sure. We all know the stars of comedy. Especially relevant is the fact that there are many comedians in the business enjoying success and working their way up. My friend Joleen Lunzer is one of them. Writer. Podcaster. Blogger. Stand Up. Meet her in Comedy Is A Funny Business-Joleen Lunzer-Podcast 686.

Grounded in Saint Paul

Now living in Los Angeles, Joleen has barnstormed across the world and has been a resident stand up in Minneapolis and Saint Paul, Phoenix and Las Vegas. While there are many in the business with an LA or New York orientation, Lunzer’s roots in Saint Paul and the midwest keep her grounded when it comes to what’s funny.

Politics In Comedy

These days doing stand up can be a political minefield. How do you play to an audience full of people from different political tribes and still have a good time? We talk about it in Comedy Is A Funny Business-Joleen Lunzer-Podcast 686.

Still A Minnesota Wild Fan

Finally, following your passion can be a challenge. There are some good nuts and bolts lessons for future writers, podcasters and comedians in this podcast. The main takeaway? Maintaining your roots, especially if you’re from the midwest, can help you through the hard parts. By the way, Joleen is still a Minnesota Wild fan.

What Inspires You These Days? Podcast 628

Inspiration. We all need it. It is sadly lacking these days. In What Inspires You These Days? Podcast 628 I spend some time at my man cave garage. While waxing and buffing Mobile Podcast Command I talk about what inspires me. Maybe you can make your own list while you listen.

Dragging Us Down

So much of the news and social media is negative and frankly uninspiring. Mentally and emotionally taxing. A let down. Time to make a list of what inspires me. Your list will be different. My list isn’t a complete list. Preparing for this podcast did not mean researching a list of inspiring things. It’s a stream of consciousness list. Some things will be left off. These are the things that inspire me now. In What Inspires You These Days? Podcast 628.

Travel Frees The Soul

Mobile Podcast Command inspires me because it means travel. Travel inspires me. Every trip is different. Lessons learned each time I head out are different no matter what the destination. Travel will inspire a person. It makes me want to break free. Turn over a new leaf. Cut the cords.

Travel planning inspires me. What’s the next trip? Should I head out to cover the 2020 elections and stay out? How am I going to do that? Listen as I buff and shine the mobile podcast command studio, and talk about inspiration in What Inspires You These Days? Podcast 628.

Why Aren’t Some People Happy

Had dinner with friends recently. Someone said a lot of people they know aren’t happy. The people I know that are happiest are people who follow their passion. Following your passion helps with inspiration. Since it’s close to Mother’s Day, I should point out that my mother taught me that. She always told me I should do the things that I love to do.

There Was a Time

When we were kids, we ran free. We did whatever we thought of. We lived in the moment. No friction. Why? Because we followed our passions. Why should so called adult life be any different? I am inspired by people of all ages who follow their passions. Whether it’s chucking everything, buying a camper and hitting the road, or writing that book and getting it published. We talk about it in What Inspires You These Days? Podcast 628.

Yes You Can

When we ‘grow up’ we’re pushed into structures. We believe things like, “You’re too old to do that”, or “That will never work”. Like a crust you have to break through. One thing inspiring me on a day to day basis is Yoga. You start out thinking you can never do what others can. Then it comes to you. If he can do it, maybe I can do it.

Time to Break Free

To wash away the crust of expectations and the heavy weight of the day to day chatter. Throw off the yoke of what doesn’t matter. In the end it’s the little things. A gentle push from a friend to reach out to someone in need. Someone who shows by example what a great marriage is. The open road.
