Hi, everyone!

I just watched the first two episodes of the Clone High reboot, and wow...hearing the Drowning Pools revamped theme song took me straight back to watching the show in college.

How has it been 20 years?! God, I'm so old haha

The voice acting is still top-notch (I'm not sold on the new Cleo yet, but Will Forte continues to nail the sweetness of Abe Lincoln in the original). I am also so happy they included Christa Miller by having her voice Candide Sampson, and the newest clones are working well for me so far.

By the way, Bo Burnham would be a PERFECT Abe...well, his younger self would have been as cute and awkward as Lincoln haha

Ayo Edebiri is fantastic as Harriet Tubman as well. Fun fact: She's good friends with Jerrod Carmichael and had her picture taken with Bo and Lorene last summer at the premiere of The Bear.

All in all, I'm loving time traveling back to 2003 through Lord and Miller! 🙌🏼

Hi, everyone!

To finish out the month of May, I've just posted 20 of the best scholarly articles I've found about Bo Burnham and his works.

If you're planning to analyze Inside or Eighth Grade, consider this your works cited page! 🙌🏼

As a reminder, my newly revamped website will be live in TWO days, and I'll have a new interview up at that time with Bo scholar Quentin Stuckey or Stucks.

Here's his YouTube channel, and here is his excellent presentation on Inside that he gave at a conference in lieu of his thesis defense. You'll be able to read all about that thesis and Quentin's journal articles when #InsideTurnsTwo on Tuesday!

Keep it here for more comedy fun! ✌🏼

Hi, everyone!

To celebrate the long Memorial Day weekend, I've posted the first four chapters of my Cool Kids' Cooking Saga in which I compare each section to the corresponding ring of Hell in Dante's The Inferno. Fun stuff!

You can find the first one here.

As a reminder, I wrote these from 2007 to 2010 (and never finished...I'm the queen of procrastination lol). Since then, I've become much more liberal, am now a feminist, came out as bisexual, and I don't get the same joy tearing apart idiots that I did in my youth (therapy helped me realize my narcissistic conservative mother was causing me to hate women).

There is also language that might not be entirely PC in this day and age. Again, I was 24-26 and living away from my very strict Catholic parents for the first time since college...I had a LOT of growing up to do!

Anyway, I hope you enjoy my first attempts at comedic writing, and I'll soon be writing about the remaining 5 chapters (hey, 13 years later isn't that bad, right?).

Don't forget that my website will also be fully revamped on 5/30 when #InsideTurnsTwo. There will be new articles up and a brand-new interview with Quentin Stuckey who wrote his Master's thesis about Bo and his special.

Keep it here for more comedy fun! ✌🏼

3 more days until this account is INACTIVE...please follow @standupcomedyhistorian to keep getting the latest comedy news and analysis! ✌🏼

Hi, everyone! Welcome to my new account! 🎤

While researching Bo and Phoebe’s friendship for my ongoing timeline, I had also compiled a list of interesting facts the two artists have in common.

Here’s the 10 best facts I could find about the pair. Enjoy!

Here are three fun ones from the list:

1. Phoebe’s mother did stand-up comedy! 🤯

Per Phoebe's New Yorker profile, her mom Jamie started doing shows after divorcing from Phoebe's dad Tony.

I'm sure Bo could help her out—he began doing stand-up when he was just a teenager!

2. Both have worn skeleton suits while performing 💀

3. They adore small dogs!

Phoebe's beloved pug Max passed away in 2019, and Bo's Bruce is living with Lorene after their breakup.

Don't be too surprised if Phoebo adopt a new puppy of their own soon!

Keep it here for more fun! ✌🏼

Hmm…👀

I'm going to take this as confirmation that they are official (and yes, it's going in my Bo and Phoebe post) ✌🏼

Current Bo project. Finally getting to finishing up my shadow box version. It took some brainstorming to figure out his hands but I found a pattern to use. I'm so grateful for the crochet geniuses out there (in this case it's Allison Hoffman aka Crafty is Cool) who have the capacity to design amazing patterns that allow me to bring my ideas to life! There's some polymer clay fun to be had this weekend and some painting to be done, plus finishing details of his hair and such. Hopefully I'll be able to show him off next week!

You say the ocean's rising like I give a shit

You say the whole world's ending, honey, it already did

You're not gonna slow it, Heaven knows you tried

Got it? Good, now get inside

Bo Burnham — All eyes on me | Inside

Before Bo, there was Adam

Clearly what I need is a cure for obsessing over ridiculously tall men with luscious hair and cute beards. 

Also sorry for posting something non-Bo, this just popped up on my feed and I thought it was funny. 😅 Now back to our regularly scheduled programming!

Adam Driver is definitely good-looking...no shaming from me!

Did you see Annette? He plays a depressed comedian whose act is suspiciously Burnhamesque haha

Ok watching Inside by Bo Burnham feels like it needs to be a yearly rewatch. It's kinda like looking at the screenshots of the way someone hurt you, and as we get farther in to the future, and people forget the shit we went through, we need to remind ourselves. It benefits that which ruins the world to forget. Take in anything that helps you remember.

If there's someone who has really been inspiring me to be whoever I want to be, it has definitely been Donald Glover. I've been watching pretty much every video essay about him at this point, it's literally the same story every time but told from a different perspective and inspiring me when I need it the most :)

Upcoming project alert! Lol. I bought this cross stitch pattern the other day and went to Michael's this morning to buy embroidery floss. This will be going on the front of a hoodie. Current plan is to put it on a purple one but that depends if I can find one I like in my size. We shall see!

A minute of silence for this look 💀🖤
