Help Us Tell Stories
Worth Remembering.
The Bald Studio creates original investigations, documentary stories and human-experience productions.
Public support helps us research stories, travel, secure access, film responsibly and produce work with the care it deserves.
I Stole Your Bucket List
Help Steal the Next Dream
Every episode of I Stole Your Bucket List begins with a real person and a dream they have carried for years.
Your support helps us research the story, reach the experience, document the journey and return with an honest verdict.
You are not paying to influence the outcome. You are helping make independent storytelling possible.
Main episodes remain freely available to the public.

Editorial Independence
Support Without Influence
Public supporters and commercial partners help make production possible, but they do not determine our findings or final verdicts.
Every investigation remains guided by evidence, honesty and editorial independence.
- Contributions do not purchase editorial influence.
- Supporters cannot guarantee that a particular dream will be selected.
- Partners do not control final verdicts.
- Sponsorships and paid partnerships will be disclosed.
- The Bald Studio retains editorial and production control.
Funding Transparency
The Bald Studio is an independent production company. Public support may be used across research, production, travel, contributor support, equipment, post-production, publishing and project development.
Where a campaign is created for a specific production or season, its target, intended use and progress will be clearly identified.
Payments and supporter accounts are managed through Buy Me a Coffee. The Bald Studio does not directly receive or store payment-card information through this website.
