In January 2019, Michael Gerry of College Station, Texas, turned on a camera and hasn’t turned it off since. He began The Michael Gerry Live Stream Project, a one year continuous live stream of every moment of his life; everything from hanging with friends, to sleeping, to going out on the town is streamed and archived for anyone to watch. On this podcast, we will explore the origins of this project, its evolution as the year went on, and the effects it is having on Michael’s friends, family, fans and Michael himself.
