Afternoon Cocktail - Season 1

3 days into shutdown, my partner, Beau Ryan (Beauyeah.com) and I embarked on a new business venture together titled Afternoon Cocktail (Afternooncocktail.show). In a Podcast/talkshow format, Afternoon Cocktail focuses on what's thriving in our local scene and beyond; with spotlight interviews from Nationally/International touring/recording Singer-songwriters in addition to a wide range of Business professionals. Each show's theme is based on the pillars of Positive Psychology, with an effort to lead conversation that is entertaining, uplifting and inspiring for our audience.

Show by show we are becoming stronger and are gaining more viewership, averaging at about 1.4K views per show. We have poured our heart and countless hours into getting our studio setup for quality production and in writing/producing/and booking talent. This Friday we will be closing out our first season of shows with 16 Episodes under our belt, and taking a brief pause in effort to reconfigure our set, and to seek sponsorship in order to keep our production running.

We have launched a Patreon, which those who choose to support our production can subscribe monthly to our show for a chosen dollar amount and be rewarded for their subscription. Our reward tiers are setup in favor of businesses seeking advertisement for as low as $5-25 a month and more. We also have tiers designed for fans of the show who would like to give/receive a shout-out for their support and to receive other tangible items such as giveaways from our sponsors.

We understand that these are difficult times for everybody, and not just us. Every little bit truly helps, and we have the greatest intention in continuing to bring positive & inspirational entertainment back to the public platform as long as time and money permits. Together we are always stronger, and it is our intention to help your business succeed and gain further recognition in return for your support.
