Make Your Thing in London
So, I do this talk sometimes called “Make Your Thing,” about the process of creating independent media in the internet world. I share what I think are the essential ingredients for success (specifically my 12-Point System for Absolutely Positively 1000% Guaranteed Success), along with examples of creators, like Felicia Day and Killer Mike, who use those strategies.
I’m bringing the talk to London on November 16th. Besides me, the show will also feature an introduction from my very funny pal Josie Long (pictured above). Afterwards, there will be carousing. Tickets are cheap and it’s a very small place, so if you want to come, buy a ticket now.
This video features many of my favorite things, such as my friend and colleague John Hodgman, Dick Cavett and DERANGED MILLIONAIRE STYLE.
BARE FEET AND ASCOTS ARE HAVING A MOMENT THIS SEASON.
Hey San Francisco and the surrounding area! I’ll be doing a rare set of stand up comedy at this great show tomorrow night. Come and laugh and tell me where the good bars near the theater are.

Hey gang! I’m hosting a MaxFun meetup on Thursday night in St. Petersburg, Florida. I’ll be in town for TEDxPoynter Institute, a one-day conference on the future of journalism. (BTW: if you’re a student, call them and they’ll let you into the conference for $25.)
So: a quick meetup, 8:30-10PM, at Crowley’s Downtown, 269 Central Avenue North. Dress will be casual, the people will be friendly. Sorry about the late notice, but frankly St. Petersburg, you should be happy I’ve forgiven you for trying to steal the Giants.
The Comedy Club in LA
If you’re in Southern California, I hope you’ll join me Friday night for The Comedy Club. It’s a new comedy night at the Ice House in Pasadena, hosted by Jordan Morris and me (Jesse Thorn). Our lineup is pretty epic: Marc Maron is headlining, and we’ve also got the brilliant Al Madrigal, the hilarious Chris Fairbanks and DC Pierson of Derrick Comedy. These are comics we hand-picked for this show - there is no fat here, all muscle.
So: if you live in SoCal, and you don’t come, you’re officially on my shit list. That’s all there is to it.
Me and the great Bootsy Collins. From next week’s episode of my public radio show, The Sound of Young America. Interview will go up on our site on Monday.
Thanks in part to your kind re-blogs, this video game-realted video we made has become quite popular on the internet. I thought I’d share my favorite comment so far:
“Wtf was that guy talking about at 0:43 You can NOT EX Cancel OUT of a FOCUS ATTACK. You have to do a special or a normal that…
