Paul & Storm will be calling in at
11:00am PST on Thursday, November 17th.
Paul and Storm (Paul Sabourin and Greg “Storm” DiCostanzo) are known internationally and across the Internet for their original comedy music (often with a “nerd-ish” bent). In addition to their own live performances, they are co-founders of the geek-oriented variety show w00tstock, along with Wil Wheaton and Adam Savage, and co-produce JoCo Cruise. The duo’s original webseries musical, LearningTown, debuted on YouTube’s Geek & Sundry channel in January 2013. Also in 2013, their song “Another Irish Drinking Song” was featured in the hit movie Despicable Me 2, and in July had their guitar smashed on stage by George R. R. Martin (and deserved it). Their fifth full-length CD, Ball Pit, came out in 2014, and was the central item of the duo’s wildly successful Kickstarter campaign.

Own a piece of Desert Bus history! 
This handsome hardcover retrospective of Desert Bus 9 is the work of our phenomenal photographer Andrew Ferguson. Autographed by just about all the DB9 volunteers, only two hardcover copies will ever be printed!! To call this a “collector’s item” is an understatement.

Things got a little emotional this evening on Liz and Tara’s shift. We took some time to reflect on why were here and on the infinite pool of positivity in our community. We can’t say it enough… thank you, everyone, for your support!
Then, things got a little spoopy. Here’s some of what you’ve missed…

The poster as it stands right now.
For those of you just joining us for this year’s Desert Bus for Hope, it’s a tradition that, as we’re bussing along on air, Michael Lunsford, creator of the comic Supernormal Step, is drawing along with us, capturing the most memorable moments forever in digital ink on the annual Desert Bus poster! The Video Strike Team is capturing all the major updates to this year’s poster on their website, and they’re also putting together a clickable image map, so you can see replays of the moments shown on the poster. Here’s the latest update.
This poster, as well as a lot of other great Desert Bus for Hope mementos, is on sale at the LoadingReadyRun store, through the end of Desert Bus 10, while supplies last. Proceeds from each poster sale are split between Michael Lunsford, LoadingReadyRun (for Desert Bus administrative costs), and Child’s Play.
And, if you’ve missed any posters from a previous year, for this special tenth anniversary of the event, LoadingReadyRun is selling a bundle featuring posters from all ten years, including posters for Desert Bus 1, 2, and 3, which have never been sold previously (posters are also available a la carte)! There’s also the Desert Bus Alphabet book, the Desert Bus 9 softcover photo book, and a playmat featuring the four shift banners.
We’ll be checking in on air from time to time to see how the poster is coming along!
