Miscellaneous
On the show today we’re talking to Rob Loukotka. Rob is an artist in Chicago who also happens to be a huge fan of the Wile E. Coyote and Road Runner cartoons. He decided to bring these interests together by illustrating a poster containing every single product from the Acme Corporation! If you’ve seen the cartoon, you’ll remember that Acme was the fictional company from which The Coyote bought things like dynamite, bombs, a giant magnet and a whole host of other paraphernalia, all of which was supposed to help him catch the Road Runner. It turned out that Rob wasn’t the only one with fond memories of the cartoon, because more than 3,000 people backed his Kickstarter campaign to create the poster and even though his goal was a modest $3,000, he ended up raising $105,000 in a campaign that ended on Christmas Eve. We also discuss Cory Feldman's adventure into crowdfunding in this week's news. Links to that – and everything else – are on our website crowdsceneshow.com. Check it out immediately. As always, leave a nice review for the show on iTunes and Mike will buy drinks for you and your friends all night long.
