They're Looking for a Double Date If You're Good Looking and Not Crazy (VLOG)

 
Ethan Fixell (C'04, Off the Beat Music Director, right in photo above) and best friend and comedy partner Dave really like to double date.

They went on their first double date in 7th grade, then one in 10th grade.  Who knew that this would spiral into something, much, much bigger...



In 2008, almost 10 years later, what begun as a double date ad on Craigslist has led to:

• emails from over 1500 pairs of women
• 200 double dates
• a vlog charting their experiences
• a monthly live show at NYC's People's Improv Theater
• and more recently, a national college tour (performances have included shows at Dartmouth, Florida Atlantic University, Boston University, and of course, Penn).

Let me introduce you to Dave and Ethan (Ethan on left):

Watch below as the try to score a date by climbing the Philadelphia "Rocky" stairs:

• without a shirt (1:12) 
• followed by their performance with Off The Beat (2:35)

This Oscar Nominated Filmmaker's Work Is So "Delicious", It's Really Not Safe For Work (VIDEO)

Oscar Nominated Alum Colin Campbell (C'91, President of Intuitons, Without A Net, Penn in Pictures 2001 panelist) has created a great 4 minute video he directed for Instant Films, a 48 hour Los Angeles film festival. Colin drew the script and then the cast out of a hat on Saturday morning and by Sunday night he handed in the finished film.

And Colin is no stranger to directing films by any means. In fact his short film "Seraglio" was nominated for an Oscar back in 2000. This was a great film that we showcased in our first Los Angeles Pennfest 2002 (photos HERE, program HERE) and am trying to see if we can get it posted on DT at some point soon.

"Delicious" is definitely on the not-safe-for-work side.  ...So much in fact that the video and the image I'm using for this post associated with this film can only be seen when you expand the post by clicking HERE.

*Besides Colin, we actually have two other Penn alumni whose short film was nominated for an Oscar in 2006.  Get the scoop HERE and watch their film!

Mask and Wig Closes Fling With Some Clever "D#ck" Jokes (VIDEO)

Another Fling, another year of cheers and hisses over some clever "dick" jokes from Mask and Wig.

Watch above to find out how the group incorporated Canada and other popular references into this year's (2009) Spring Fling "Nude Bit". (for those Friars and Sphinx members out there, stick around for the last joke!)

...If you watch the first exchange, you'll hear the following dialogue:

"Excuse Me Noah, I think you put that shoe on wrong"
Reply: "It's because I have a foot dick"

Can you come up with a better reply line?  
...Tweet me HERE with your response!

Senior Gift Drive Video Gives Me That Warm Fuzzy Feeling

The 2008 Senior Class just put out this moving gift drive video that is well produced and feels partially like a gap commercial.

...And nothing says senior gift drive than adding in a bit of nudity?!

Watch it here!


I am not surprised this is a good video as it was done by Brian Canavan (C'10). Have you checked out the awesome films Brian did which I covered here?

Now and Then Thursdays: Superblock Streaking

(Videos above taken from Reunion Weekend 2007)

Recently Jason James (C'95, AEPi) found my site and when he heard the name of it, it reminded him of a very "R" rated memory involving him and some friends...

"My fondest memory of Dueling Tampons: getting absolutely wasted with Matt Weinbach and two chicks whose name I cannot (or will not) recall ...removing all our clothes except our shoes and socks on the third floor of the fraternity house (all four of us)... marching out of the house, across the street, streaking through Penn campus at 1 am, and climbing the actual dueling tampons butt naked (based on this video, this is no easy task!) ...and then appearing in 34th Street in photo form (apparently taken by someone living in the Towers). "

There seems to be lots of voyeurs in the towers through the ages. Remember this recent video featuring the Midnight Dancers of Harrison College House?

Do any of you have any fun memories involving campus structures?

• The Dueling Tampons?
  
• The Button?
• Ben on the Bench (although we've covered Ben on the Bench "pee"-related memories here)?
• Other structures?

Now and Then Thursdays: Flinging Nude for 15 Years

Mask and Wig performs in the buff at Spring Fling 2007

Back in the Fall of 1992 Norm Golightly (C'94) wrote Mask and Wig's "Nude Bit" for our fall show. The following spring (1993) the guys decided to perform it for Fling and it has been a Fling favorite for (come this Fling weekend) the past 15 years!

The fun of the bit is that each class has creative freedom to update the bit's "dick" jokes and (barely) cover themselves in a more creative way than the year before.

As you'll see in the 1993 photo below, Dan Bisbee (C'94) (left) and Norm Golightly (C'94) (right) are all about Christmas Trees and Guitars.


Click here to check out some of my newly posted 1993 fling photos including more scantily clad photos of Todd Lieberman (C'95), Norm Golightly (C'94), Dan Bisbee (C'94) and Christian Fletcher (C'93)

Funny Fridays: Political Documentarian Discharges Another Film

As you may recall from my previous post, filmmaker Stephen Robert Morse (C'07, DP /34th Street) got funding from Wharton to create a political documentary.

From his Spring '07 Cinema Production course, Stephen has now submitted an entirely different type of film he wants to show us. ...A comedy that deals with "the morning after", revenge, STDs and all sorts of goodness. Look out for the use of Smokes as a location in the film. And try not to cringe when you see how the lead character uses Listerine to help his "situation" out.

Watch The Morning After
Part 1
Part 2

Stephen is now pursuing a Master's in Scriptwriting at the University of East Anglia and working at Blake Friedmann Agency in London, and plans to move out to LA in May '08 to find a job in the entertainment business.

The Morning After stars:
Marc Friedman (C'07), Lia Zneimer (C'09), Lizzie Frasco (C'08), Alex Weinstein (C'07), Leah Feder (C'07), Tracy Webber (C'07), Caitlin Russell (C'07), The Spring '07 TEP pledge class, Eric Borowsky (C'07), Tom Campana (C'07), Alex Solether (C'08), Andrea Kohn (C'09)

This undergrad is Tomorrow's Covergirl

Our undergrads and alumni are not only mentally fit, but in the case of Collete DeBenedetto (C'08), physically fit as well.

Look out for Collette who is featured in the February 08' issue of the women's fitness magazine, Oxygen (on newsstands now!) She is in the "Tomorrow's Cover Girls" section looking hot!

Click here to check out Collette!

From the looks of it, this proactive undergrad has her act together not only when it comes to fitness, but when it comes to a career in entertainment. According to her facebook profile, I see that she has interned at both Scott Rudin Productions and at VH1 (both in NY). Something tells me she'll be one to look out for...

More Freaks: Talent in reverse!

I was impressed by their last video, but this new video from Freaks of the Beat is just as compelling.

Combine talent with some reverse playback and we've got ourselves a very entertaining video.

Per the group's co-president (featured in photo to left), Ronny Gallegos (C' 08), the video is a tribute to Spike Jonze who directed the Pharcyde's music video 'Drop.' We put our own spin on it."

Is it me or do you think these guys are procrastinating from studying for finals? : )

U of Pee-A: Undergrads and Alumni can't hold it in

Hold in their talent, that is.

Remember a month ago when we covered this story and video about undergrads peeing on Ben on the Bench?

Well, for some odd reason, there's been more pee-related stories whizzing past me and I can't hold it in any longer... Here wee go... (okay, I'll stop be annoying with these oh-so-clever pee references)

1) Check out this video of "It's a Privilege to Pee" from the undergrads' preview performance of Urinetown (on campus this week from November 15-17).


2) And click here to check out this potty humor of Danish Rhythm's new "revealing" video entitled, Executive Bathroom, starring Gary Lundy (C'05), Spencer Crawford (C'05), Joel Rubin (C'03) and directed by Ryan Baber (C'02).
