We are joined by Emma Wong (No Prank Radio, Emmatown) for a huge discovery: the CEO of Cameo is ON Cameo. We get a glimpse into the world of this madman, and examining his cameos gives us a pretty big insight into how the website has managed to suck so much ass, from putting explicit adult videos...
2020-06-10 18:03:55 +0000 UTC View PostIt's the bonus episode you've all been waiting for, our first look at the horror of the cheap gig economy website Fiverr. Don't worry, we haven't retired from doing Cameo episodes, but we thought it was important to scour every sad corner of the internet for content, and this is no exception.

Hi everyone, it's Stefan. I'm in a dark place right now. This is the most difficult trial I've ever experienced. Hell, it might even qualify as a tribulation. God damn, I never thought it would happen, but I think I hate staying inside and playing video games all the time! I'm tired of Hearthston...

A few weeks back, we went "live" on Zoom with our very good pal Jamie Loftus (Bechdel Cast) and watched a ton of awful celebrity Cameos. Now that we have the instructions for the Cameos thanks to our good friend Drastic Actions, John searched for the word "bitch" with fruitful results, and Stefan...
2020-04-22 18:43:43 +0000 UTC View PostHey friends,
John here. I know that we had a long and funny and clever name for the newsletters, but it was very annoying to copy/paste every time and the last time Stefan and I did the newsletters, we both called them #20—probably because we bury the number of the letter at the very end ...

2020-03-31 22:00:16 +0000 UTC View PostWe were on the cusp of COVID-19 cancelling all activities, just two days past when we made the decision to cancel BP Live! (back when those were things you could still make decisions about) and when we were reasonably sure we could be in the same room without it being an issue.
Who knows wh...
2020-03-26 23:36:04 +0000 UTC View PostWe're back with another all-Cameo edition of the podcast, a podcast that was meant to be recorded live in front of an audience, but that the virus cancelled.
