Really enjoyed this. Usually 9 minutes of someone making me jealous sucks...but this was great!
Noticed two things...1.) you have good teeth - make your own waynes world extreme close up joke and
2.) your hair grew a lot from the first shot to the last.
great video - and it's an honor to have a small part bringing you on stage at Coldtowne.
wow you really brought your A game !
i'm not sure about the beige suit it's a bit "our man in havana " .Were you going for a colonial diplomat look ?
DF, you can credit my orthodontist for #1. My teeth were godawful as a youngin'.
The suit is white with pinstripes. And I'll take colonial diplomat any day. Especially in a sea of skinny pants, leggings, and colored sunglasses.
Uh-oh.
I want to hear whose material you roasted.
Nice job on SXSW. That's awesome!
what did you use? a flip or fliphd?
Used a regular Flip.
Nice slice-of-life for those of us who could not be there. Sounds like you were well-received, congrats! I esp liked the TravelZoo joke. Well done.
i'm considering hitting up SXSW this year and googled and found your blog/video... dude, i can't usually sit thru 9 minutes of video any more but it was L'JIT... painted the picture very well...
now, i know i don't want to go for sure.
J/K. just wanted to give you props for your work - your jokes were strong and your commentary was great, too.
all the best!
