sometimes you have to read your dad's texts and just move on with your day
so join us on may 5th! and without further ado, let's begin. π²

we've also put a lot of thought into how we can make the kickstarter campaign itself something fun, special, and in the spirit of the show -- no matter how much you contribute.
this game ~format~ will allow for us to continue to evolve the game over time, making it something dropout can continue to invest in.
in my dream of dreams, home edition becomes a real spiritual companion of the show.
game changer: home edition consists of *three games*, each inspired by a different episode of the show.
it's the only game where the game changes every round!
what games? follow us on kickstarter to find out...
as folks know, i'm a party game fanatic, and i didn't want to do this unless i thought we were doing something that was...
a) original
b) a huge amount of fun
c) a borderline act of terrorism upon your friend group π
d) a love letter to my show baby π₯°
we could have launched a home game years ago. so why now? because we wanted to get it right.
and boy do i think we (myself, my writers, and game designer joshua balvin) have...
get ready for a home game changer...

Headed to London at the end of April and have some days / nights free. What's a theater, art, food, and game nerd to do?

it's an honor just to be predicted

that we were able to turn this into a dropout special, and thus share it with a bigger audience, is a huge professional highlight for me. in a streaming landscape where standup has been heavily commoditized, this is something else. this is art.
far be it from me, a fan, to say what the show is about, but to me it's about the way in which toxic masculinity - in all of its closed-mindedness - stands in the way of us knowing true love.
the show encapsulates the spirit of modern theater just about better than anything. is it...
- cutting and current cultural satire
- scripted as well as improv
- character comedy as well as clown
mark's, and his director joanna's, talents truly know no bounds.
Key art for THE BEST MAN SHOW on Dropout shows Mark Vigeant's character standing on a wedding reception table, holding a beer, with a tie around his head.
one of the most magical things about the edinburgh fringe is getting exposed to acts and comedians that aren't already in your network.
imagine my delight as i showed up (late!) to THE BEST MAN SHOW and saw the tour de force that it is, and met mark vigeant for the fist time.
does this mean less original dropout content? of course not! we have a record number of new dropout shows right now in development, the fruits of which you'll begin to see this year.
stay tuned for this, that, and more! πΊ
...by which i mean put more shows on dropout that we think are...
(a) uniquely great
(b) perhaps even underexposed
shows like SUITS LA (kidding, i didn't watch it, though i did watch literally all of og SUITS)
have or know a show you think we should consider? get in touch!
is dropout getting into licensing content?
yes, maybe, carefully.
as with anything we do, this is experimental -- driven by my love for the show as well as a great relationship with its creators. but if it works, we might do more things like it...
Key art for "Don't Hug Me I'm Scared" on Dropout shows its title along with its three principal puppet characters in picture frames.
one of my all-time favorite weird and wonderful shows - DON'T HUG ME I'M SCARED - is now on dropout!
full web series now; TV series (which less people have seen) over the course of the next few months. big thanks to blink industries, becky, and joe for their faith in us.
