The Reactorverse Podcast Ep. 51: Reel-Time

It's real talk with Reel-Time this week on the podcast. Longtime friends Bryce, Rob and Zuff are only a few years into their channel but have managed to gain a considerably supportive audience in that time. Their extensive library of reaction videos reaches a wide variety of viewers who appreciate their down to earth and heartfelt approach to their work. They share their personal origins, the bumps in their channel along their journey and the appreciation they have with their accomplishments thus far.

The Reactorverse is hosted by Passionfruit video editor and community organizer Eric Rodriguez. Every week, he interviews a different YouTube reaction channel who share their experience of building a brand from watching new movies, tv shows, trailers, and more in real time. These are the stories of those who have succeeded in turning their passion project into a day (and most likely night) job. Passionfruit is a news site, multimedia brand, and community space for creator labor issues. In an industry estimated to be worth half a trillion dollars by 2027, the majority will go to platforms, distributors, brands, and other corporate interests that rely on creators to produce an endless stream of new content. We are dedicated to advocating for the rights and fair treatment of online content creators, provide resources, news, and advocacy. Every worker in this space deserves Sustainability, Accountability, Equity, and Transparency: a SEAT at the table of the creator economy. How can you get involved?
