Snapple Cap Facts. Written by Sean Clements and first performed by Stone Cold Fox at Maude Night. Starring Joe Spellman, Sean, Ben Rodgers (taking over for Scott Courlander who was in a play), Fran Gillespie. Directed by me, shot by Todd Bieber and edited by Carmen Angelica.

My sideburns were reaching a Martin Van Buren level of thickness so I thinned them down to a five-o-clock shadow length. The next day I got three compliments on my “haircut.” Lesson: when you are balding, your sideburns comprise a significant portion of people’s perception of your hair.
Also, as Ben Rodgers and I were walking into UCB Theatre for School Night last night we passed Rob Lathan going the other way with a pair of stilts.

Because I’m drunk on the freedom of YouTube to do whatever I want, I guess. It’s nice to have funny friends who will show up and shoot for an hour with zero prep, too.
Gavin and the rest of Rogue Elephant are doing a sketch show tonight. Maybe you go, yes?
Oh, you want MORE trivia on that 2.5 minute video? [...]
