For my podcast, i would like to interview Matthew Silver. Matthew is a street performer in Union Square that has developed some fame over the past couple of years. Many videos of him have gone viral (he is usually recognized as the bearded man in the leotard holding a rubber chicken screaming about “love farts” in the middle of Union Square and other areas of NYC.)
Aside from the absurdity of his performances, Matthew has developed a large fanbase. His Facebook page has over 304,000 likes, and he has recently started a youtube channel to feed his fandom.
Matthew message is heartwarming: he just wants his absurdity to bring laughter to the world and for people to stop taking themselves so seriously.
Matthew has already agreed to an interview, which will include questions about his start, his schedule, his fanbase, his goals, and why he does what he does.
