Welcome to our final installment of the Desert Bus for Hope 2020 Yearbook! Over the past few days, we’ve introduced the entertainers that’ll be keeping the bus rolling down the road during this year’s event. We asked each entertainer to write a quick intro about themselves. And, because it’s a yearbook, we asked our volunteers to write “Most likely to” titles for each person.
Last, but not least, we introduce the Entertainers on the Zeta shift (Midnight-6am PST)…
Brendan “Beej” Dery (He/Him)

Describe yourself, in about 50 words or less.
I wear a lot of purple, and my best features are my small scale-leaves, borne in opposite and decussate pairs no wait those are arms. I am confusing myself with a plant? I could be a plant. Wave around in the sun all day and be purple. That seems nice.

I am the very model of scatterbrained millennial
I’m proud to be returning to the Desert Bus perennial
On Zeta shift I’m very keen to add to the commotion
But if they make me improv I will walk into the ocean
When did you start bussing with Desert Bus for Hope?
Comms didn’t specify 1st or 3rd person tense on these bios, so you split the difference and write in 2nd person. You, Molly Lewis, called into DB6, went to the moon for DB7. The first time you drove the bus was during a live auction, you got distracted & crashed.
What are you most looking forward to this year?
You’re looking forward to finally staying up through a Zeta shift, and in the process finally testing your lifelong theory that you’re a raccoon in a human suit & would thrive on a fully nocturnal schedule. Typically, the impending US Thanksgiving would hang over your Desert Bus like the Sword of Damocles, bidding you to keep a tether to that tyrannical day star they call The Sun. This year you are cloaked in shadow, and the vengeful sky orb cannot eat what it cannot see.
