It is no surprise to me that this conversation ended up covering such varied and interesting ground. Today’s guest is Spencer Handley, a mad-skilled musician, software engineer, sensitive soul, part of the Patreon team and even a Patron of my art! When I heard his new song, Act So, from his new project Creature Kingdom, I just had to get him on to chat about it!

In this episode we chat about:

• How Instagram inspired the song Act So
• What the lyrics are about and why he chose this style of music
• Why Patreon is so important for the world right now
• What the heck Reality Surfing is
• Social media addiction
• Omg, and seriously so much more! Enjoy, I know I did ?

Links and other awesomeness from our chat:
