Brad O'Farrell gave our almost official mascot the Labor Day treatment. Njoy. He's linked to one of our happiest videos of all-time.
New unemployment stats are the worst in 26 years. If you're like any of the dreamchasers at My Damn Channel, it's a fair bet you're no stranger to losing a gig in TV, radio, music, or the arts & little sciences.
"Go Your Own Way" may be a lame, overplayed, 70's sing-along...but it's also fine solution for what to do after getting tossed out of a gig.
We're raising a glass to everyone with the brains and the backbone to embrace a new way to get your work seen by an audience large enough to actually make you money.
One last-ever reference to Fleetwood Mac...
We got some sad news over the weekend, that one of our best co-cons at My Damn Channel is moving on. Vivian Kyinn provides much of the mystical glue that holds this house together. She wrote and co-produced a film called White Wall which got her to Cannes and now she's decided to get after her movie-making passions full-time. BIG THANKS & BIG LOVE to one of the better humans we know.
Warren Chao posted the replacement gig based in our LA office this weekend. Economic insanity created hundreds of candidates in hours. If you're read "The Night Feed" and know the best human for this gig - email: Jobs@MyDamnChannel.com

Experienced a "Holy Shit Moment" (H.S.M.) on the way to work this morning.
An insanely rare realization: "I Love My Job"
Took years to get here. Many stumbles along the way.
The radical idea to CREATE your own job beats the hell out of working for the big companies that can erase your work reality in a heartbeat. Likely to be a lot of that game about to go down elsewhere in the next weeks & months ahead.
Got feedback yesterday from a new My Damn Channel co-con who said he saw that 3 of us here were totally in love with what we're doing. Holy Shit.....we are.

A.D. Miles, Zandy Hartig & Matt Ballard are all back!
And you'll recognize the character actor (Mike Starr) as the cabbie from every movie ever made.
We're premiering Monday, 6/16 at 7a et - unless we can't wait & sneak it to you early here.
Here's today's featured video - Grace's #2 fave episode -"Walking Tour" - starring David's co-con from The State and Reno 911, the amazing Kerri Kenney-Silver.
