Peter-Santenello-Interview-Bob Davis Podcast 1169

Peter Santenello Interview

Firstly Peter Santenello joins the Bob Davis Podcast for an Interview.

Three Years Ago

Secondly Peter and I became acquainted three years ago at Quartzite, Arizona.

In addition Peter and I became pretty good friends as a result of that interaction three years ago.

Furthermore he has helped me with my YouTube Project.

Experience In The Desert

Not to mention the fact that appearing in a video on Santenllo’s channel documenting his experience with us in the desert that year.

Collaboration

Equally if not more important is our collaboration this month on a video in Arizona.

Arizona Diversity

To begin with Arizona has so many diverse cities and towns.

Stories To Tell

And there are always stories to tell.

Therefore our trip entailed visiting four completely different Arizona Towns.

That is to say Sedona, Clarksburg, The Yavapai-Apache Nation, Jerome and Prescott.

New Rig Co-Stars

Even more my new rig, Mobile Podcast Command Unit 11, is prominently featured in Peter’s new video.

Audio Podcast

Thirdly we decided to sit down for a podcast on my channel the day after our little tour of mid northern Arizona.

Because I create unique content for the audio podcast as opposed to the video channel, Peter-Santenello-Interview-Bob Davis Podcast 1169, includes content not in the video on my YouTube Channel found here.

Also Peter’s YouTube Channel is here.

Experiences

Afterward we talked about the trip, and the experiences we had.

Social Media Isn’t Real

For one thing we agree the America people experience through social media is not the reality.

Travel Opens The Mind

In the hope this fact may be better understood Peter and I discuss how travel broadens the mind and softens harsh judgements.

Fourthly we talk about Peter’s experience with his many videos and interviews.

Great Adventure

All in all we had a great adventure.

Arizona History

In essence telling part of the Arizona Historical story and sharing our own observations.

All things considered we talked about the mining and ranching history of Arizona as well as our impressions of life in The Grand Canyon State.

And Grand It Is.

Quartzsite-Bullseye-Bob Davis Podcast 1146

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.

Nomad-Dollars-Sense-Part1-Bob Davis Podcast 1101

Nomad Dollars And Sense

To begin with I am going to do a series of podcasts discussing dollars and sense for the nomad. Nomad-Dollars-Sense-Part1-Bob Davis Podcast 1101 is the first in that series.

Preconceptions

Most importantly Part1 deals exclusively with our preconceptions about what exactly “The Economy” actually is.

Updates Podcast 1069

And this podcast series updates earlier comprehensive podcasts about the economy and the nomad.

In fact this is necessary because I want to deal with specific metrics in the second podcast in this series.

Business Coverage

Most importantly the reality of business news coverage these days is mostly political.

Or it is alarmist.

No Overlay

That is to say if you overlay a political or religious template on economic information you lose the ability to analyze what is going on.

Force Of Nature

Certainly the overall world economy is a force of nature.

In other words a force similar to waves on the ocean.

Therefore making predictions about outcomes is extraordinarily difficult.

Misinformation

And our modern information channels are filled with misinformation.

Charlatans

In addition there are many charlatans spreading misinformation for their own purposes.

Context

I have also learned it takes a long time to get comfortable with terms and context when it comes to financial markets and economic discussions.

My Story

Firstly I’ll tell you a little about my story as a nomad and how I became intensely interested in this subject.

Secondly I’ll tell you why I think the economy in general is at an inflection point.

And what that all means.

Podcast Series

Nomad-Dollars-Sense-Part1-Bob Davis Podcast 1101 sets up the next podcast which will deal with the key data in the economy I have learned to look at.

Finally it comes down to whether you are Pollyanna or a Cassandra.

Moreover why so many main street business owners are in fact Pollyanna.

And why they’re missing the latest economic data which could signal what is just head.

To sum up the nomad wonders when fuel prices will collapse.

And when food prices will come down.

Even more the one hundred and eighty million Americans who aren’t millionaires and billionaires wonder when they will get a break.

The answers to those questions begin with a baseline for a dollars and sense evaluation of conditions as they are.
