Audio Adventures

• Videos

This week, I launched a new 8-episode podcast series of improvised comedy adventures.

This is my third attempt at a podcast after the Time Podcast hosted by the TimePop Cast (2017) and SHADA’P (2023); Both incredibly short-lived, each only having a one episode run.

All episodes of the podcast were recorded as part of a 3-hour recording session. Nothing was written down beforehand, and it’s one of my favourite things I’ve ever made. I love making improvised videos, though I don’t get many opportunities to make them with other people, and doing improv alone is really difficult and never as funny. The audio medium allowed us to run free without the limitations of live action and the huge work required of animation. There are also jokes that only work in an audio medium that I was so pleased to find.

What I think will happen when I enter a store wearing clothes I bought there

• Animations, Videos

I wrote the script for this short all the way back in 2021. After a failed attempt to film it, it stayed in my ideas folder for a long time, until last week when I recorded dialogue for it in a car after a trip to IKEA.

Update Day for the eShop

• Videos

Last year, I showed my friend one of my favourite videos: NTBTS’s Update Day – a late 00s online short about giving lyrics to the Wii Shopping Channel music. This year in July, we had the idea to make a remake/parody of the original video but based on the Nintendo Switch eShop. So we scrolled through a list of Switch games on the eShop, wrote some lyrics, and then sat on it for months until we finally shot it one night in November.

is your refrigerator running?

• Art, Comics

I made a silly little comic based on a bit I did one time in a VTuber’s live stream chat.

A couple of weeks ago, I discovered ‘Mia Fenimore’, a new Vtuber who does chill talking streams. For whatever reason, I asked “Is your refrigerator running?” in the chat, and somehow it turned into a regular bit. I’ve never drawn fan art before and to be honest I feel a bit embarrassed that I have now; But I had an idea for a silly joke so I put the shame aside and made art.
