From the “Craigslist Joe” official website:
In a time when America’s economy and sense of community were crumbling, one guy left everything behind – to see if he could survive solely on the support of the 21st century’s new town square: Craigslist. Joseph Garner cut himself off from everyone he knew and everything he owned, to embark on a bold adventure. Armed with only a laptop, cell phone, toothbrush, and the clothes on his back – alongside the hope that community was not gone but just had shifted – Joe lived for a month looking for alms in America’s new town square: Craigslist. For 31 December days and nights, everything in his life would come from the Craigslist website. From transportation to food, from shelter to companionship, Joe would depend on the generosity of people who had never seen him and whose sole connection to him was a giant virtual swap meet.We wanted to have Mr. Garner on the podcast to hear about both the creative and entrepreneurial aspects involved in putting a project like this together. The entertainment industry is full of hard-working entrepreneurs who, like any small business owner with a dream, must raise capital, market their idea and take huge risks to see something they believe in come to fruition. This documentary is fascinating, and Joe’s story is compelling. Follow the project on Twitter at @CraigslistJoe as well as on Facebook!
