How to Be a Good Conversationalist Part 1 With Denver Abernathy

They say conversation is an art form, and Denver Abernathy is known to be able to converse on just about any topic under the sun. Tiberius and David did a great job of testing Denver's knowledge on a wide range of topics. Eventually David asked a question that gets to the heart of the matter: How did Denver get so good at conversation? The answer might surprise you! Content Camp is a video podcast run by kids. Kids do all the on-camera and behind-the-scenes work from cameras, audio, video switching, etc. If you have a child in the Indianapolis area who would enjoy being part of our video crew, please reach out via email to: producer@ContentCamp.kids.

Let the Kids Run the Show - The Philosophy Behind Content Camp

In this episode Kennedy and David had a chance to interview Content Camp Co-Founder Tony Valle about his reasons for starting Content Camp and his plans to grow the organization.  Tony believes that kids are generally not given enough freedom and responsibility to really test the limits of their own capabilities.
This thesis is the foundation for Content Camp.  Here the kids do all the work and run their own show.  If you have a kid past 5th grade, we would love to have him or her as our guest!!  Any interested parent can send an email to producer [at] contentcamp.kids
 
 

A Man of God Shares His Life Story from Football to Viet Nam and Beyond

Monty Riffer started life in Pittsburg, PA, where he was expected to work in the steel mills just like so many young men of his era. God had different plans.
Monty's talent for football was his ticket out of Pittsburg and the steel mills. After a promising college career, Monty was drafted to go to Viet Nam. Immediately after returning from Viet Nam Monty married his sweetheart Kathy (now married over 50 years)!!!
 
Monty was kind enough to share his life story with Louis and Landon of Centent Camp. The boys asked so many questions and Monty answered them all. What was it like to not reach your dream of playing pro football? What was it like saying goodbye to your family as you left for the war? Content Camp is a club for Kid Creators here in Indianapolis. We teach video production skills to kids who are beyond 5th grade. If you have a kid who would like to be our guest and see what it's like to work on our crew, please feel free to reach out!!
