Ani Acopian and Suzy Shinn: The Geniuses Behind SCRUBHUB

The Pornhub Podcast with Asa Akira

Ani Acopian and Suzy Shinn are the creators of Scrubhub.tv! You may know them from Amazon Dating - Ani is a director, film producer, conceptual artist; Suzy is a multi multi grammy nominated music producer. Together they.. well, you’ll find out in the episode. Their latest project ScrubHub is a hilarious, satirical site about hand washing - which is raising awareness and money for charity. So todays episode is a little bit different, being that we are in the midst of a global pandemic - Due to Covid19, we are all staying home as much as possible (a big thank you to all of the essential workers out there who are making it possible for the rest of us to do so, in order to flatten that curve and slow down the spread of the virus!) I talk with Ani and Suzy about what it’s like to be an artist in these times; we talk about film, music, porn, and how this pandemic will change the course of history for our respective fields. What is the secret to staying creative during times of stress - and just in general? Where is the line drawn between contributing art to the world when everyone is in pain, and being just plain old obnoxious? As a freelancer, how can you get a brand or investor to notice you? Is social media crucial to being successful in this day and age? Also: what is DATING like during a global emergency?! This episode felt like just talking with two funny friends, which was much needed for myself right now. I hope you enjoy it too : )
