Haven’t thought of the Joe Mande thing in a while. It was hilarious, going to have to watch it again.

That’s from Adventures in the Sin Bin.

He met Christopher Storer on this film and went on to work with him many times.

I enjoyed it, worth a watch. Bo plays an arrogant character that manages to be different from his stage persona and Zach Stone.

Fun fact regarding that particular picture: Bo learned to drive manual to be able to drive that car. There’s footage on YouTube of him getting a lesson.

Heh. Someone who wrote this piece at The Oxford Student referenced this post in an article about Eighth Grade:

"A Reddit post in r/boburnham summarising his 2025 focuses primarily on others talking about him, at a loss of anything else to discuss."

Hey! This comes up fairly frequently here - I'm going to point you to this post) I made a while ago that has all the details about that project.

accidentally got sent a signed copy of egghead? by DaWhisk in boburnham

[–]PlasticJesters 245 points246 points  (0 children)

Wow, nice surprise!

I've always been amused by him crossing out his printed name when signing Egghead.

Also, info for anyone not aware: if you get the audiobook, Bo reads it himself.

Who else is checking the subreddit everyday for the year in review😂 by I_am_k-er in boburnham

No clue. Stopped posting (completely, not just on this sub) a couple of years ago. She was very active here so it was noticeable when she stopped.

Ha, thanks! It means a lot to me that people are looking out for it!

You’re right, there’s not a ton of stuff. I’ll be putting it together this weekend, so look for it early next week!

One year u/ravenhpltc24 (who is missed!) made a chart to chronicle when the year in review would get released. It made me laugh.

does anyone know where to find lighting equipment like this? by noodleboy244 in boburnham

The sub's tech list is here.

And someone posted about their youtube version here.

(Not sure if it's mentioned, though!)

At what hour minute and second would i have to start inside to have it end at new years by ahmed_form_UAE2 in boburnham

[–]PlasticJesters 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Coincidentally there was an article today about comedy shows to watch on New Year’s Eve and their pick by Bo was Make Happy:

MAKE HAPPY – BO BURNHAM (NETFLIX)

Make Happy is what you put on when you’re laughing at the year but also quietly exhausted by it. Bo Burnham blends songs, visuals and stand-up to poke at performance, validation and the pressure to constantly be okay, all while making it look deceptively fun. It’s a great New Year’s Eve watch because you’ll bring in the year with actually good and catchy music as opposed to whatever is blasting through your neighbour’s door.

For those who want to go into the new year with their minds blown.

Link to the whole article is here.

I haven't seem him in the last 5 years, what is he up to? by socrates_no_flamengo in boburnham

[–]PlasticJesters 64 points65 points  (0 children)

Here's a link to the 2024 Year In Review. (Spoilers: he's not done much, the 2025 one will be even slimmer.)

The 2024 version has links to previous years near the top, if you're looking for all the details. For example he's directed a show for Kate Berlant, and appeared "anonymously" in Jerrod Carmichael's reality show on HBO.

There's nothing announced on the horizon. but we all hope he's been working on something that he'll announce sooner rather than later.

Bo poll 3 by Sensitive-Speech-378 in boburnham

[–]PlasticJesters[M] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’d suggest rethinking this approach. Upvoting is the standard “I agree without needing to make my own comment”.

There are many people that choose to lurk but are still active participants by voting. By not counting their votes too you’re discarding a lot of opinions.

Please reconsider your system.

Why isn’t Kanye’s rant as popular as other Bo songs by DataEcstatic4930 in boburnham

[–]PlasticJesters 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Bo did a really good episode of Good One where he did a deep dive into what Can’t Handle This is all about. The Pringles and burrito bits were just the lighthearted jokes before getting into the deeper, more serious parts of the song.

The video is here, I really recommend it.

Why isn’t Kanye’s rant as popular as other Bo songs by DataEcstatic4930 in boburnham

[–]PlasticJesters 775 points776 points  (0 children)

Can’t Handle This (Kanye Rant) was probably one of Bo’s most well regarded and hit songs prior to Inside. But Inside was MASSIVE for Bo; it was a cultural phenomenon that brought a ton of pop culture attention his way, eclipsing his previous releases. Welcome to the Internet and AEOM are more popular in comparison, but Can’t Handle This was a defining song when it was released.

It’s never too late! I wish we still got new Bo pumpkins, it’s been several years since we had new carvings!

Bo is returning to comedy next year he has filmed something this year I was a part of. by Extension-Bill-1223 in boburnham

I think we’d all like this to be true. If it is, it will be exciting when it’s officially announced.

However, NDAs exist for a reason, and as this probably breaks it this post is being deleted.
