Damon and Jo come to SU

Gifford Auditorium, H.B.C.

Please join us and meet Damon Dominique and Joanna Franco who make up “Damon and Jo” a popular YouTube Channel, with over 900,000 subscribers and more than a million views each month, tailored towards young people who would like to travel but may have a limited budget, or who lack familiarity with a particular destination.

 “We’re Damon and Jo – two 90s kids who got tired of cheesy travel shows and cookie-cutter travel hosts, so we took off around the world and made a travel show for the social media generation: Shut Up and Go. We post videos 4x a week in English, Portuguese, French, and when we're feelin' lucky, Spanish, German, and Italian.”

Damon and Jo are two internet celebrities who are best friends; they are both in their mid-twenties, and each has unique qualities. Damon is a college dropout who grew up in a trailer park in Indiana, and Jo is a fun-loving Brazilian woman with a business degree. Together they make up “Damon and Jo”, a team who keep their

audience laughing while recounting all their trials and tribulations as they explore a variety of countries and situations.

Please join “La Societe Francophone and the Department of Languages Literatures and Linguistics” where our guests will talk to students about the role of language, travel, and global awareness in education, and about the story of their business, http://www.shutupandgo.travel

 Damon and Jo’s corporate sponsors include Toyota, Starbucks, MTV, Target, ATT, Greyhound and numerous others.
