What's the Story Behind DeadBrain.com?
Jan 1 2006 by Allen Voivod
"They gore an awful lot of oxen on…
DeadBrain.com."
- John Clayton, The Union Leader/ NH Sunday News, 2/13/05 |
Once upon a time there was a British humor site that was making some serious waves with its crooked-toothed natives.
Alas, the site's visionary founder realized that as popular as the spunky satire was on his dry-witted domain, nothing is truly successful until it hits big in the good ol' U.S. of A.
Thus, he contacted one of his most prolific minions - a warped-minded American named Allen Voivod - and asked Allen to take the DeadBrain brand and make it something his fellow Americans would cherish dearly (or at least laugh at on a regular basis). Allen accepted the mission.
"Our DeadBrain audience is…people to whom nothing truly bad has ever happened."
- Editor Allen Voivod on NHPR's The Front Porch with Shay Zeller, 8/5/2005 |
Today, hundreds of snappy pop 'n political articles, "dysfunctional" movie reviews, and millions of visits later, DeadBrain.com is fast becoming the best place to visit while you're waiting for The Daily Show with Jon Stewart to come on the TV.
DeadBrain.com draws on a talented pool of two dozen contributors and "beat satirists" from across the U.S. and Canada. And as if that weren't enough, the site and its editor are making waves in print and radio as well (listen to an interview here).
And where, you may ask, does this award-winning humor site reside in the ideological spectrum? As 20-year media veteran and esteemed author John Clayton so deftly put it, DeadBrain.com "is on the cutting edge."
Consider this your exclusive invitation to check out the DeadBrain.com action! We know you'll find something that makes you laugh out loud. Honest, you will!*
*And if you don't, complain to Allen, that high-falutin' editor we mentioned above. He'll not only write you back - he'll grovel in email form. Now THAT'S entertainment!
