I've been following Augie since his bmx delivery days. So happy for him to be thriving in photography and I can't wait for his book!

[@gwillsthewizard]

This is easily the best individual you've had on. He could be so obnoxious, but instead he comes off as genuine and seemingly very curious about the world around him.

[@RnKAllDay]

we need more creators like augie on youtube

[@steezyasfvck]

Such a incredible human being. Augie, you're such a good soul man. Keep doing your thing.

[@candygardner4440]

I am a 76 year old Grammy who's been following Augie since his food delivery & bmx days. I love this kid. Watching him mature and find his way in the world is so interesting. He definitely has charisma and an anointing on his life Is so interesting. It's clear that his steps are ordered by God. I love his sense of wonder and his transparency💙💙

[@mstrshkbrnnn1999]

Wtf. I used to follow this guy back when he did the bmx post mates vlogging. This dude inspired the hell out of me back then I was a senior in high school. It was partially bc of him that when I first moved to Seattle, my first job was postmates on an old road bike lol. A 1971 schwinn varsity for whoever is curious

[@zzela5094]

as someone who’s been following angie for a good 7 years i was waiting for this episode

[@nick0789las]

Interesting guy and great photos and I admire his confidence. I’ve also enjoyed watching this video. Only gripe I have is his recounting of his experience in “Africa”, which is not just exclusive to him but a wider issue, and the narrative of “these people have nothing but are so happy” is also played out. “Africa” is a massive continent with many countries, languages and different cultures. To make my point, notice how France wasnt referred to as “Europe” but Ivory Coast becomes “Africa”. Just something I think people should be cognisant of.

[@STUDIOAUGIE]

I have been thinking about this quite a lot recently thank you for your input only helps me grow

[@nick0789las]

​@@STUDIOAUGIE I appreciate you taking it onboard and not taking it personally. Hopefully the work you make out there continues to grow and evolve and somehow makes a positive impact on the people you cross paths with.

[@jeffreyzie]

I like this dude. Love how he just came up to the dude live-streaming. Didn’t hesitate or anything. Just straight into it and even connected with the dude. Love that

[@ssoundwaves]

Augie is a warrior. I don't personally know the dude but the fact that he somehow always finds a way to pop on my radar at the most random of times throughout the years is an indication of this guys perseverance and fighting spirit. Just from the blurbs or digital clippings I stumble upon of his journey and story, it's apparent he's found a way to grow through his dips and party through his highs. And to that, I can relate. Keep on trucking, Augie. We're rooting for you.

[@SatanSupimpa]

A man ready to lay on the ground wearing white pants transcended barriers that we, mere photography enthusiasts, are not ready to commit yet.

[@CameraNostalgiaClub]

Austin has inspired me to do a lot of things in my life. Been following him for years now, What a guy!

[@mubeccelkaya7305]

he’s so cool about the process. when the frame comes somehow he feels and captures. it felt like the naivest thing about his photography is to goin with the flow. he talks in almost %70 of the video and it touched my soul. thanks!

[@Drewxcifer]

I have always liked AUGIE, his vlogs were wildly entertaining but his progress in art and mindfulness is the best.

[@Usiris23]

Augie mentioned having adhd and god damn it’s so accurate. I’m just like him, feel like a crackheads sometimes composing images in my head while walking around with my girlfriend. Blessing and a curse

[@vidaworksout]

It's not often a photo just makes me smile, but those parrot photos have so much soul! Most people would have zoomed out but he went in and got close. Amazing! Glad to now know about Austin!

[@Olie23231]

This is easily my favourite KZbin series right now

[@chrismehmet3463]

same

[@triumph_cv]

What a great dude! Austin Augie is as sweet and genuine as they come - his energy is really beautiful. Great episode.

[@aprilpaddock8455]

Favorite Walkie Talkie so far. ❤

[@nicktalerico8273]

Damn man, I’ve heard of this guy before through Willem Verbeeck. Didn’t know he was such an awesome guy tho! I don’t see how anyone could get mad at this guy on the street, his charisma and humanism oozes through the screen, I can only imagine the good energy he gives off in real life. Another great video, Paulie 👍

[@knowledge4741]

Augie has always been a good dude, people seem to hate on him for weird reasons

[@boladealex]

this series always saving my life thanks paulie

[@barrychattillion1705]

Another great session, love to hear people talk about their craft.

[@vmdtcg]

Great example of how to interact with the public in a non-confrontational way, was like watching a dance, great work!

[@jonflan691]

Wow, loving Austin’s energy and outlook on life. Inspiring dude , thanks Paulie

[@chris_1337]

Paulie what you do is so cool, all the artists you talk to are so beautiful, they're out there, they're truly alive. It's amazing, never stop what you're doing! Much love!

[@sevakdilanchian]

So much fun. Thanks Paulie

[@maxheadroom7687]

Great video, Augie makes some really thought provoking observations, love his outlook and dedication to the craft. Really showed what a great guy he is when he mentioned he was going back to Africa to give his books to the families he featured in them! Love this series Paulie 👍🇦🇺🇬🇧🙏Max.

[@TomAndrew_]

Will forever love Augie, always come back to the vlogs every now and then.

[@stephen-wahl]

What a lovely amble through the city and illuminating conversation. He is going to have a really fulfilling life.

[@garymorrow9324]

Best Walkie Talkie to date!

[@VladArges]

Wow, I’m so glad I have opportunity to learn of such a great person. The way he sees the world, his art, optimistic eye - it touches me. Thank you Pauli and thank you Austin for this episode!

[@nicedward7544]

Good stuff guys. So good to see Augie doing well and loving life

[@DavidBirchphoto1.]

I find your walkie talkie videos really interesting, seeing the photographers viewpoint and craft. Keep up the great content. Austin is a really interesting guy.

[@AudreyPriest]

I literally checked 2 days ago If you had an episode with augie after discovering this channel, this is sick. Always liked augie and I love the direction he took his channel in.

[@StereoChimps]

the best and only !! such a big fan of austin work, one of the most sensitive artists in youtube in my opinion, his channel and his videos are just work of art and so poetic!

[@alfiewingfield]

everything augie says resonates with me, brilliant to listen to

[@jeffreyzie]

Just finished it and this episode inspired me so much. Really re-sharpening my why for shooting. thank you

[@liam_dawson]

Not to categorize ourselves is a great photography lesson for expanding our self imposed niche :) I’m glad to watch this after years of watching Augie rip Bmx w homies.

[@Fuegoshotz]

Yes! Been waiting for this video for a long time. Austin is spot on when it comes to how shooting photos is like landing trick on a bike. It’s the same exact thing. The same feeling. The same accomplishment. It’s fckn dope. Great video Paul!

[@void_creative]

Ever since I stumbled on your channel I've been hooked. The conversations have been so insightful. Keep up the dope work!

[@brettandrewclarke]

These conversations resonate so much. Good head work. Good perspective.

[@kelvinlelvin]

Great photos and interview Paulie! The BMX days were hard, so cool seeing Augie shoot

[@danieltntbomb]

On that out of the west scene of the video you can tell this guy has a heart of gold the way he was picking up those kids for hugs. I love seeing moments like that 🥲

[@somephotovideos]

This might be my new favorite Walkie Talkie episode. Great, soulful insights from Austin. Love knowing that we share the same quest to avoid traditional employment at all costs so we can make content that helps us to have the freedom to be artists who are able to pay their bills.

[@mattah]

Fantastic video and such an authentic character.

[@shawn4900]

Paulie B puttin' in work, creating a phenomenal catalogue of mini biopics of some real people with vast talents. This channel will age well and provide much inspiration and techniques for the people for years to come. Regards from Canada Paulie 🇨🇦

[@justinjamison8678]

Another killer one, Paulie!

[@vinnyt42allday]

DUDE AUGIE? The crossover I never knew I needed ❤ love the old vids

[@Axel-fm9ln]

Been waiting for this one

[@directorbro]

I've always found this show very funny. This episode feels really interesting and natural. Thank you.

[@felixgrise3730]

Thank you Paulie !

[@analoguestills]

I laughed too hard when the old dude 'smile weird', then the photo came on. Man, another great series dude!

[@TheFloridaBikeVlogger]

man augie is the coolest and rawest dude out there. been following him since the bmx deliveries.

[@IsThatYouSimon]

Dope episode again, very good talk. Thnaks for this quality brain feeder content Paulie B !

[@mattpenketh4417]

been waiting for this one

[@ReginaldVandeVelde]

Such a nice series you're having! Loved this one!

[@danieldimitrakis]

Great episode

[@jenniferdacreativeexplorer]

I thought this was a great interview. I love Austin's photography philosophy because it's just like my own, just make work and don't box yourself in with a specific title like street photographer, he's a photographer, a documentary style which is like mine. I capture the life around me through my camera and my goal is to focus on capturing the beauty of what the world has in it. Things we take for granted each day. I like that Austin just does his work for himself and pushes himself to learn new things etc. His quote of 'I'm a story teller' really resonated with me. That's what I do to. Thanks for the interview, Paulie B and introducing me to another artist!

[@herbertandrewdutton]

I like your attitude, philosophy and your photography, stay happy~!

[@blackheartusa]

Best one yet!

[@advunc]

great episode love augie

[@lissrckstdy7855]

awesome episode!

[@32ndFoto]

I like this guy.. He's Wild!!! One of my fav episodes..

[@de.velop519]

I LOVED his vlogs back in the day

[@MrV2u]

Cool guy right here. Great content!

[@aemil94]

Love your channel man. Thank you.

[@End0fst0ry]

The moment Augie coughed specially to cause a reaction from a stranger and take a picture... is gold. Greetings from Russia, Augie. I've been watching you for a long time, you're great! Keep it Up!

[@framesngrains2933]

when I make it to NY again one of these days for vacation I'm gonna have to keep en eye out for you. you got some great content on your channel!

[@Jake_Towne]

This was such a great video! Ive been watching Augie forever and some of his photos in this video were very spectacular! Augie is so humble and ambitious! I definitely hope to meet him in person someday! Keep up the good work! Augie mentions tips about being successful at your craft which i thought his answers were interesting, Im a photographer/KZbinr and have high hopes of becoming a successful youtuber/photographer one day and being able to work for myself while doing something i enjoy & getting paid for it! Being consistent is key, but also time plays a factor, its not going to happen overnight, overtime everything will fall into place with hard work, dedication and some luck. 💯

[@DuhamelTanguy]

Been following Augie ever since, what an inspirational and humble guy man

[@StephenMcFadden]

And another one! Dope as usual. Long live the eccentrics.

[@aliarby]

Dream episode gotta bust out a beer with this one!

[@WesleyVerhoevePhotography]

loved this one brother!

[@lukeboucher100]

From the Midlands, UK, I'd love it if you tracked (on Strava) your walk for each episode, I'd love to be able to see the route where you've walked and how far. That would satisfy my brain so much!

[@lukepeeters5178]

good video, its like a new school videol ike the old days of the greats walking about.

[@actionash1840]

Was privileged to get to chat with Austin in Hastings UK the other weekend. What a lush dude.

Paulie…your Walkie Talkies keep getting better and better. Great interview with a great photographer. Love Austin’s energy and work! Austin, you just gained a new follower! Keep it up you two!

[@joaofezasvital8521]

Finally someone talked about Wiilliam Klein (my personal favourite aswell!). Been following austin for a long time on the gram but never heard him talk, seems like a nice a very intelligent and nice guy!
