Featuring Steve Agee, Eli Braden, Jonah Ray, Kumail Nanjiani, music from The Manx, and too many fun surprise guests to count. It’s free, but only if you RSVP to summahfest@gmail.com.
This is a design I just finished for Howard Kremer’s SUMMAHFEST. I know the colors are a little hard to handle but hey – c’mon – whatever. Right?
The fest is the 16th – at 2 pm. There is a version with a ton of text all over it with the details and such. This is the version I will have for sale at the event. So put on your boat shoes – and I’ll s

Okay. I can hear criticism. I’ve been hearing it for some time and I know when it’s meant well, when it’s just meant to hurt; and now, as a grown up, I can even tell if it’s a good idea and act upon it. Most of you already do this and I don’t know if this will help with the perpetrators or not…
We are, after all, a bureau, Jackie, if you need us to take action, we can do so (I’m not really sure what that would entail, but I’m just saying YOU’RE FUCKING HILARIOUS.)
1) Marc Maron’s upcoming CD “This Has To Be Funny” is available for pre-order on Amazon.
2) Just in case thought you this was a big put-on, it wasn’t. Ron Artest had his show at the Hollywood Improv.
3) The Earwolf Challenge is here. America’s First Reality Podcast.
“Earwolf announced ‘Project Tippy-Toe’ where we asked for comedy podcasters to send us applications for a ‘super secret Earwolf project’. We were inundated with podcasts; over 120 to be exact – and we listened to all of them. Needless to say, it took a long fucking time; emphasis on the ‘fucking’.
After we sifted through the silt and the shit (silt being the good ones), we found the ten best podcasts to compete in the challenge. Matt Besser graciously agreed to be the host of the show, and we flew the ten competitors to Los Angeles and put them up in a local mansion.* Thus is where we begin the show.”
First episode’s right here.

11) Transformers 3 becomes the highest grossing movie of 2011. You do know that means that the rights to Transformers 6, 7, 8, all the way up to Transformers 10 are probably locked down by Michael Bay? Thanks to everyone who watches shiny things shoved down your throat because it’s been marketed to you every second of your waking life, we’ll be watching 2 hour music videos on the big screen for years to come. Yes, I graduated from film school and am still somewhat pretentious and have most likely forgotten what childhood was like, but I’m OK with that.
