Camp Counselors with Zachariah Porter and Jonathon Carson is a good natured podcast hosted by your favorite fake camp counselors Zachariah and Jonathan. Here at Camp Shady Birch we love the great outdoors in theory, but we’d rather spend our time making friendship bracelets, spreading camper gossip, keeping our heads in the clouds, and avoiding archery. We know we would make great camp counselors minus the fact that we know nothing about camping. So grab your sunscreen and bug spray because things are about to get campy.
“We’re thrilled to welcome Camp Counselors with Zachariah Porter and Jonathon Carson to our network at PodcastOne. Zachariah and Jonathan have created a great comedic podcast, and we’re looking forward to putting our considerable marketing and ad sales strength behind the show to grow its listenership and revenue potential,” said Kit Gray, President and Co-Founder of PodcastOne.
Zachariah Porter is a comedian, content creator, podcaster, and chain restaurant enthusiast. With a passion for storytelling, writing characters and telling jokes are his forte. He concentrates on content that is relatable, optimistic, and absurd. Jonathan Carson is a podcaster, content creator, and seasoned video editor. A self proclaimed observational comic, his content revolves around his love of quirky real estate listings, weird foods, and niche pop culture trends.
Camp Counselors with Zachariah Porter and Jonathon Carson originated in August of 2022 when, after dating long distance for two years and eventually moving to NYC together, Zachariah and Jonathan decided they wanted to take their love for content creation and develop a podcast together. The camp counselors theme was created over cocktails and burgers on a sidewalk restaurant. While the show isn’t about camping, it is campy and the audience loves the “camp counselor” energy. Camp Counselors with Zachariah Porter and Jonathon Carson has amassed thousands of loyal campers who come back every week to hear about the hosts' latest obsessions, ridiculous banter, current annoyances, and whatever else comes up around the campfire!
