The Dork Forest

The Minnesota State Fair. Brandi Brown (@itsthebrandi) is a great comic and has an eclectic pile of dorkdoms. We picked a couple. The state fair and her diving into the caucus system here in MN during the caucuses. It's fascinating. Enjoy!! Welcome to year ELEVEN of TDF.

Food and Family. Nia DeBose (Houston comic @LOLNiaDeBose) and I talk recipes and go down a rabbit hole of foods we love. (no rabbit recipes were mentioned) Then we weed off in the end about wandering neighborhoods looking at real estate. It’s a great one. See her comedy. Listen to this. For it is fun.

Who has dressed AUTHENTICALLY in Colonial gear? Jenny Zigrino (@JennyZigrino). She did it for fun and money at Ren Faire’s, the Freedom Trail in Boston and, I assume, sitting around the house. I’m wearing my moccasins right now. Great ep. Enjoy. NOVEMBER AND DECEMBER PLEASE do NOT donate to TDF. DONATE to your LOCAL foodbank. FeedingAmerica.org is good if you’re in the US.

Xena the Warrior Princess! @jennychalikian knows and loves this show. With guest appearances, occasionally, with sex in the city dork, @erinjudge. They are both comics and you should find more of their comedy. We talk powerful lady series and how that is STILL fictional. Enjoy. NOVEMBER AND DECEMBER PLEASE do NOT donate to TDF.

Artificial Intelligence. Eric Lampaert (@ericlampaert) is a great comic and loves him some, what I guess I believe, to be spooky tech. We talk about sentient robots. And find that there is very little sci fi overlap between us. WE talk the big issues and it’s fascinating. NOVEMBER AND DECEMBER PLEASE do NOT donate to TDF. DONATE to your LOCAL foodbank.
