After years of approving friend requests from listeners, viewers, fans and readers, I’ve hit some sort of mystical limit and been forced to make myself a proper Page on Facebook. If you’re a Facebook user, you can now officially “Like” Jesse Thorn.

You can also, of course, like Put This On.

Midnight Snack: Rosewood Tavern with Jordan Morris

Think there aren’t any restaurants open late in L.A.? Residents who work late beg to differ. Jordan Morris is a performer, writer and podcaster who’s made a careful study of the best burgers in LA — this is one of his choices.

Laurenne: What do you normally order?
Jordan: The burger. I’m sort of an LA burger connoisseur. The “best burger” conversation comes up a lot, and you need to have a working knowledge of the burgers around here. Or maybe that’s just an excuse I use to eat junk food.

Laurenne: So where’s the best burger in LA? 
Jordan: Golden State. Best burger in LA.

Laurenne: Wow. Better than Father’s Office?
Jordan: I know I should be strung up in a town hall for saying it, but yep. Hands down. Irv’s Burgers is a close second. And then this place. I have West Hollywood Burger Pride. I would have a little parade for it if it wouldn’t be so confusing.

MaxFunCon Tickets on Sale Now

Every year, I put together a special gathering in the mountains of Southern California. It’s called MaxFunCon.

It’s part comedy festival - last year we had the Upright Citizens Brigade, Greg Behrendt, Maria Bamford and others. It’s part creativity retreat - we have classes in film making and songwriting and crafting and other stuff. It’s part convocation of like-minded people - the air just crackles with intelligence and kindeness and friendships new and old.

The 2012 edition will be June 1st-3rd, and tickets have just gone on sale. Last year, they sold out by the new year, so if you’d like to come, grab your spot now. I hope to see you at MaxFunCon.

(Above, by the way, a Deranged Millionaire, Mr. John Hodgman, delivers our benediction.)

Podcast: Jordan, Jesse, Go!

hollywoodartcritic:

I’ve been listening to a lot of the podcast called Jordan, Jesse Go! lately, and I’m a bit uncertain as to why. Certainly the show has its enjoyable qualities, which would encourage an occasional — or even weekly — listen. It consists of about an hour of gabbing between two friends. The first is Jesse Thorn, who also hosts The Sound of Young America, a very good interview show that, from the sound of things, may soon be changing its name. The second is Jordan Morris, a comic performer and occasional television show personality. The two have spent years making each other laugh, starting with a radio show at their college radio at UC-Santa Cruz, and so the show is regularly funny. They have frequent guests, often drawn from LA’s standup comedy community, a community that Jordan and Jesse could fairly be described as being boosters of. The results tend to be an atypically entertaining conversation between friends, at least in part because both Jordan and Jesse have great curiosity about the world, and like to discuss whatever is puzzling them the most at the moment.
