1. What did you do in 2011 that you’d never done before?
Survived a blizzard. Saw the Flaming Lips. Obtained smartphone. Performed onstage in front of hundreds (thousands!) of people. Was tear gassed. Went whitewater rafting! Made bomb-ass non-soggy chow fun. SHAVED MY HEAD. Shot a gun. Shot a rifle. Went to Ithaca. Was on another NPR show besides SJ. Got an MRI. Spent more money than ever....
My celebrity dinner party
Ira Glass, Tina Fey, Louis CK, Jeff Goldblum, Jad Abumrad, Mindy Kaling, and Angela Davis.
I’m nerdy.

99% Invisible: Radiolab presents 99% Invisible →
Hi all….
A piece I co-produced with my bff/old boss Roman Mars is on Radiolab this week. Radioab is showcasing his brilliant podcast, 99% Invisible. Everything he makes is brilliant. Obviously. But 99% Invisible is an intelligent, often funny, creative design podcast that makes incredibly complex concepts simple and compelling. Subscribe.
But um, in case you didn’t get that: YES!...
TEXAS!
Guise, I am going to Texas for stories. Please, can I get suggestions for anything crazy you’ve heard of there? I’ll be in Marfa and might be able to drive as far as Austin.
Woo.
