The Two Hour Folk Hour embraces the Value for Value (V4V) model in which we present the show for free and without sponsorship & ads for your listening pleasure. In return, if you find value in the Folk Hour you are encouraged to return that value in some way. This value can come in any way you can think of, but we like the 3 T’s:
- Time
- Talent
- Treasure
- Tokin’
(Phifer would also like to add ‘Tractors’ and old Buicks in any condition, but that doesn’t fit the alliteration).
By popular demand, you can boost the show directly through podcasting 2.0 apps to send micropayments of bitcoin (called satoshis) over the lightning network. While some folks don’t like the comparison to tipping, we feel it is entirely appropriate as we are curating, rather than creating, the majority of the content. And as Gillian sang – we’d be doing it anyway.
We encourage our listeners to find ways to support artists featured on the show directly and in the spirit of V4V. We love when people reach out to us to let us know they bought tickets to see someone they first heard on the Folk Hour!
The #GrassGang has found many creative ways to return value in a way unique to the community! Is there anything more Folk Hour than this beautiful piece from Texas Hot Glass?
