Each issue traces the history and cultural meaning of a recurring American joke figure or trope, such as Lawrence Welk, the fat kid playing the tuba, or the philandering milkman. It opens with a quoted joke and then explains where the premise came from and why it persists.
W. Kamau Bell shares pop-culture commentary and updates on his podcast Who's With Me?, including interviews with figures like Colin Kaepernick, Megan Rapinoe and Rafael Casal. Readers get a personal, politically left take on comedy, sports, race and life in the Bay Area.
Personal essays and humorous vignettes by Greg Sisco, a comedian and writer, drawn from his rideshare driving, moving between apartments, and daily life. The newsletter doubles as a hub for his comedy, fiction and film projects.
Humorous, jokey recaps of Test cricket days (graded with comedic report-card marks) alongside a running comic-by-comic parody read-through of classic Uncanny X-Men issues. Readers get absurdist, joke-dense commentary layered over real match events and comic plots.
