Commission for some cool dudes!

So in 2009, SLAM Network started officially. This was the first video we ever made for the site.

The show is called The List, and it's about myself and my friends helping me complete items off of my bucket list. That premise pretty much throws itself out the window in future episodes but this was the first actual item I completed off of that list.

It's no secret I got the idea of doing this from ThatGuyWithTheGlasses, but the thing is, I still actually fucking did it. It was also great because I hadn't hung out with Paul in a while before we started filming this. The show eventually evolved into an excuse for whoever was in the cast to hang out, and in the end we've got something to show for it.

I did lose pretty much all my work friends from doing this. It was strange, I told everyone that I was going to quit my job like this, and all I got was a  'Pfft, yeah whatever Liam'. And then when I did it, everyone got mad and was like 'Why would you do that?'. I would reply 'I told you I was going to do it!', and their reply would be 'Well I didn't think you would!'.

Uh. Sorry?

I don't regret my decision though. It was awesome, and it led me to making content properly for the internet. Because of SLAM Network I've made things I'm proud of and I get to entertain a few people. Very few people, and I've made friends!

Favourite Moment: The intro. I think Paul came up with it, running up his car, and me trying to get over it and failing. It's great. Oh also Josh giggling behind the camera recording me quitting. He was there from day one.

Paul: My part in this episode is pretty much a badly-acted recreation of what really happened. Liam approached me one day and told me of his idea for a show, it sounded fun enough, so I was in.

After dealing with criticisms about The List's similarities to My Name is Earl (made by people who obviously didn't know anything about either show) we embarked on our several-year video-making journey. Favourite thing: Liam's excellent acting skills. For all those years.

I present to you, the best series we've made, The List.

Here it is, 4 months in the making, the game that drove me to tears of frustration as a child. The balls breakingly hard game that is 'SUPER GHOULS 'n' GHOSTS!' I'm super proud of this video. Really proud. If you like it, give it a reblog or a like on the page. It really does help! Thanks for watching!

It's Christmas! Once again, Liam is annoyingly full of Christmas cheer, whilst Paul can't stand it. How will Paul fix this problem?

This time, he has a score to settle. After the Notorious Gunsling McBiceps escapes his custody and injures him, Action Josh has to improvise and double his efforts to recapture the dreaded outlaw the only way he knows how, by being Action.

So you like Fosters beer? Mad Max? 95% of all super models? There is a certain island in the pacific, containing a certain friend of mine, who just so happens to be the the Handel of internet comedy. But while Handel wrote the Messiah, he is in the midst of vexation trying to write to the inter comedy of all times. I just want you to look at the link for five minutes, see if it is your thing and if so, give a buck or two. Why not make someone feel good so others who enjoy them can feel good?

Having already conquered internet sketch comedy, my good friends over at the SlamNetwork have decided to take their unique approach to this thing we call "humor" and branch out into the world of long-form serial web shows. However, much as Michelangelo could not work with inferior marble to create a masterpiece like David, so too do the good Slam Network gents have need of materials to match their ambition. To this effort, they have started a donation drive on Indiegogo. If you are one those pillars of the community that believes that dreams should be kept alive and that artistic ambition should be rewarded, you should stop on over and part with just a few of dollars to ensure that they can keep laughter alive in this cold hard world we live in before the Machine Uprising invariably crushes us beneath its cold steel feet.
