Bad First ImpressionThe Kissing Booth Trilogy with Connor KwiecienCo-owner of Myfriendsbasement Studio and comedian Connor Kwiecien steps away from the controls and in front of the mic for a defense of Netflix's Kissing Booth Trilogy!

Chief among those questions are: Is The Kissing Booth 2 the longest movie ever made? How are we supposed to relate to these characters' problem when they live in the most luxurious beachside mansions ever? Was it the smartest choice to have this...2024-06-211h 02

Rebranding The PodcastWelcome to the new What's Up With Me! What's up with you? How you doing?? Before going further, I messed up. It's not the "Shots in the arms, money in the pockets." or the "Hope is here" campaign. It's the "Help Is Here" tour. If you've been following the podcast, you're used to me stream of conscious rambling about Curbside Comedy and other stand-up comedy pursuits. To be honest, my life isn't that interesting to talk about me for 20 minutes every other week, so I figured it was time for a...2021-03-2234 min $What\'s Up With Me?$ What's Up With Me?Episode 13 - Survivor ApplicationWith the beginning of March comes the end of the #CastConnorOnSurvivorCampaign. This month, I've watched 12 seasons of Survivor, spent countless hours doing math problems that're probably irrelevant and making some sketches that took longer to set up production than film. All that hard work didn't go to waste—I made my fourth application which I make on this here episode. We'll see where it all goes from there.

It's time to lay out what I have so far. If you see this Jeff—nice. Empirical Evidence In 13 days, I've watched 7 seasons of Survivor. I'm a student of the game.

It's a Christmas present for my mom. Last year, I asked Jeff Probst and the Survivor team to either cast me or write my mom a letter explaining why I didn't get on the show. I never got the letter, and I haven't been on reality TV. Needless to say, my mom and I are disappointed.

To be honest, it's a bit surreal. The whole idea of Curbside Comedy started simply as a way to continue to perform stand-up and develop as a young comedian. Thankfully, it's allowed that and much more. All those things listed above are positives that were only made possible due to the pandemic. If the world wasn't overcome by COVID-19, I would have never left New York City. I would have been getting 5-minute spots after finishing...2020-09-2122 min
