The Next Stop Is... with Jane August
New York City is full of a multitude of different neighborhoods, industries, and worlds that we probably never even thought about.
While traveling the five boroughs on the quest to visit every museum in New York City, content creator Jane August has crossed paths with tastemakers and experts from various fields from architecture to restaurants to maritime to nightlife.
On the new podcast, “The Next Stop Is...”, Jane is pulling back the curtain on some of the most fascinating industries and people in New York City and beyond, interviewing local legends and creative up-and-comers. There are endless things to do, see, and learn in the city. Sometimes you just have to miss your stop to find them.

Pony Cam Is Taking On New York City Burnout
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Is it possible to fulfill yourself creatively, complete your administrative work, have a social life, and do the menial tasks of life while also trying to survive? That’s what Australian collective Pony Cam is trying to figure out with their Off-Broadway show Burnout Paradise. With the help of the audience, four performers on treadmills try to balance all of the sectors of a full life while racing against the clock in the most exhilarating show New York has seen in awhile.
I had a great conversation with Pony Cam’s Claire Bird, Ava Campbell, and William Strom about how they conceived the show, what they’ve learned from touring it around the world, and why audiences keep coming back for more.
Get tickets for Burnout Paradise at burnoutparadise.com running through May 23 at the Astor Place Theatre Off-Broadway.
