Sewers of Paris: It Didn't Feel Real (Ep 323 - Jygglypuffdaddy/Gaming)
🕑 Added 2021-02-18 22:02:28 +0000 UTCHello, I’m Matt Baume, and welcome to the Sewers of Paris. My guest this week has been on a wild adventure since high school. Andre, also known online as Jygglypuffdaddy, grew up in a small German village and found queer friends online, eventually leaving home to move in with his internet-boyfriend in Berlin the day after he graduated from high school, eventually getting married. It was a risky move that paid off — and he’s hoping that his latest venture, dropping out of grad school to become a Twitch streamer — will pay off too.
We’ll have that conversation in a minute. First a quick thanks to everyone who supports the Sewers of Paris on Patreon.
And just a reminder that I’ve got a weekly newsletter for all the stuff I’m working on. You can sign up at mattbaume.com — each week I give you a little sneak peek into upcoming projects, little bits of weird fun cultural artifacts I’ve uncovered in various archives, and of course links to cute animal videos.
And I hope you’ll join me for regular videogame livestreams throughout the week — at a new time! I stream games and laid back chill chit-chat at Twitch.tv/mattbaume every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday evenings, now at 5pm pacific.
And over on YouTube, I do Saturday livestreams where we comb through old news archives, searching for weird fun artifacts. Last week we found evidence that the “in this economy” joke was invented by a lesbian in New York in 1970s. Come join me at youtube.com/mattbaume for those news archive hunts.
