Now much has been said already about Ze Frank, but for those of you who haven’t heard of his genius: He was elected as the Favorite Male Vlogger at the first Vloggies Award Ceremony (yes that’s right – check the SITE and Ze’s ACCEPTANCE SPEECH). Furthermore, his site was regarded by Time Magazine as one of the 50 coolest websites on the planet (click HERE) and as no. 2 in their 2006 TOP 25 LIST OF PODCASTS, so who are we to discuss that?
Now what makes Ze so freaking cool? As the Guardian/Observer writes HERE:
“The Show, Frank’s three-minute vlog, which he shoots every weekday at his Brooklyn apartment, is, at first glance, a bewildering, scattergun affair involving repeated use of the words ‘sports racer’. Closer investigation reveals a surface layer of fratboy humour, complete with cheap, scatological gags and insider terminology, and a deeper layer of incisive political and social satire”.
We just love his work: It’s funny, smart and very daily indeed. And the proof is in the eating, because that’s what 200.000 people do every week. Not only by subscribing to his work but also by collaborating on crazy communal like PROJECTS. Since he started his daily Vlog (or ‘vidcast’ he likes to call it) on March 17, 2006 and has always said he would only do it for a year we better hurry to revlog some of his work. Therefore we take-off with this classic, posted in October last year.
