ZOE SPENCER - Comfort Food, Uncomfortable Growth
Episode 28
Thursday, 16 April, 2026
Host Coline Witt welcomes streamer and content creator Zoe Spencer to an episode of "Eating While Broke," where Zoe cooks her throwback meal: pork and beans with cut-up hot dogs, butter, pepper, and sugar, served with rice (or bread). While cooking, Zoe talks about growing up in a two-parent, middle-class household in Brooklyn with hardworking parents, her early jobs (a supermarket at 16, Burlington through college, and a bank job after graduating in May 2022), and how she was fired from the bank due to a branch shutdown and let go from Burlington for constantly posting her shifts. Zoe discusses creating staged-but-unscripted blind date videos, transitioning into Twitch, differences between YouTube RPM and Twitch’s real-time subs/donations, and a successful collab with Sexyy Red arranged through her team. She shares that she’s building a mostly Black women-led team, and says her biggest challenge is staying focused and consistent, noting she can stream 8–12+ hours when locked in. Zoe opens up about streaming feeling less fun and more performative, her desire to pursue acting through classes, self-tapes, and auditions, and her interest in comedy while also wanting challenging roles like horror or serious drama, including a dream project with Regina Hall.
