New Dec Stucks on VCAM

Stuck in VT
December Episodes 107-110
Airing January 2009
Channel 15, VCAM

And a new rerun of The Deadbeat Club playing this month as well! It is the New Year's episode from 2007, what fun. It features Suzanne M0nroe trying to hijack my show and lots of talk about the end of the world. Wow, that sounds just like this year! Apparently, I always think about the end of the world when a new year arrives?! Little did we know in 2007 just how impressively shitty 2009 would be...eek.

In 2007 I started vlogging for the first time but had not quite gotten the format down. Those early vlogs were really long, free form and experimental - basically me babbling. And in this episode I talk about how I wanted to make a well-structured vlog in which I interviewed VTers about their lives and what do you know? I did it. ;)

It is always nice watching old DBC and seeing how much has changed, especially when I am feeling like I move in slow mo and never get anywhere.

In the 2 years since I made that episode, I've produced 110 segments of Stuck in VT, interviewed just about everyone in town, got featured on Boston's The Chronicle and written about in the Freeps, not to mention having Stuck viewed all over the world. I got my dream job at Seven Days, bought a weird old house, and am continually excited by the work I do for the very first time in my life.

Who knows what 2009 will bring, but please let Mad Max be a way down the road. I still have to tile the front porch and figure out how to fit a ping pong table in the basement. I have plans, so many.

DBC10 Reruns Tonight!

Airing for the LAST time tonight ('cause I am too much of a deadbeat to turn in a new episode on time, AS IF!):

The Deadbeat Club
January 2005
Episode 10
TONIGHT at 11:30pm
Channel 15

In my opinion, the DBC10 New Year's Show is far better than the one I am currently editing. It includes a hopping 50s Deadbeat Party, a DBC NYE countdown with people from all over the world, a look at WHY NYE sucks so bad, some predictions for the year 2005 (sung a la Conan Obrien's "In the year 2000"), a Mad Max preview, and a HOT HOT HOT Jane Austen Babes of the Month (seriously, yum!).

What's that you say? You don't live in Burlington Vermont but you would still like to watch the rerun! Well, bless your sweet lil' heart. And bless YouTube's heart too!

Embedded below are DBC10's NYE Countdown and Jane Austen's BOTM:

NEW DBC Airs Sunday

Yes, what with all the happy endings and crazy changes and what not, I have not had time to finish snipping up the January Episode #29 of The Deadbeat Club. Tonight (Friday) a rerun from January of 2005 will air at 11:30pm on Channel 15.


The first new DBC episode of 2007 will air Sunday:

The Deadbeat Club
January 2007
Episode 29
The Changes Show

Premieres:
Sunday at 9pm
Channel 15

Some highlights of DBC29 will hopefully be:

2006 DBC Montage
Suzanne tries to hijack DBC
Deadbeats look back on 2006
Deadbeats 2007 predictions
Margot and Zombie Movies
Eva and Vlogs (Scott Walker and Regina Spektor)
Mom and her Political Movie Review (SIR! NO SIR!)
The final installment of The Offasty: A Room with a View

Sadly, I might have to miss watching the premiere Sunday as I will be at my first rehearsal for Champlain's production of The Trojan Women. I am terrified to do a real drama as I am not much more than a clown when it comes to "acting." But it will be fun to wallow and muck about in the drama, trauma and pain of this heartbreaking tale of Troy with some other lovely people!

Happy New Year Baby!

The merry year is born
Like the bright berry from the naked thorn.
~Hartley Coleridge

Baby Ivo rings in 2007
full of hope, glamour and sass!

Each age has deemed the new-born year
The fittest time for festal cheer.
~Walter Scott

I made no resolutions for the New Year. The habit of making plans, of criticizing, sanctioning and molding my life, is too much of a daily event for me. ~Anaïs Nin
