  2. Too much coffee today, Joanne? Anyway, I’d like to also put my vote in to cease & desist with profanity (like in the other days beer vlog). It shows how degenerate people are that they have to have cursing to feel “adult”. Say, didn’t we see the rocketman clip before?

  3. The stop-motion intro is getting a little old, but the guys singing to the drive-thru box made me smile.

  6. Joanne, the last clip in today’s episode reminded me of the documentary Super Size Me. From what I remember, Morgan Spurlock lives in NY like yourself. Any possibility that you could interview him and RocketBoom it? I have a million questions you can ask him but I’m sure that you will have no problem coming up with your own.

  8. Agreed, JoCo looking very nice today. Almost made up for having to look at a guy with a pipe stuck in his eye. ….how does a person learn that he can do that?

  9. Showing Jennie’s actual email address was not appropriate. The email doesn’t say, “And please show all viewers my email address.”

    Bad move RB! Bad move!

    I thought of contributing, but I’m certainly not going to anymore.

    Bad move RB! Bad move!

    “Odd show today. ”

    I thing she must be having a secret affair with Ze Frank…it’s his influence that’s messing everything up.

  14. RB,

    Please, no bad words.
    Please, no creative attempts.
    Please, only show us things that we expect to see.

    Please, close our box when you’re done.

  15. Unlike Brooklyn Kitchen, I liked the stop-motion intro and the desk/wall drumming. I don’t know if it can ever seem “old” to me.

  16. just checking to see if this show still sucks… yep, it does.

    so you criticize Ze Frank for not being “Web 2.0″? What does that mean? He didn’t put a “2.0″ next to his icon like you did? His jokes are actually funny? Or does “Web 2.0″ = using attractive women to increase viewership?

    lame.

    “Baron attributes Ze Frank’s relative lack of success to his Web 1.0 ways:

    As Ze has been doing online video for a very long time, but he uses 1.0 means of distributing his show…and he only started to identify with “videoblogging” once videoblogging defined him. “

  20. Was going to mention something previously about shampoo and conditioner, but appears that has been taken care of, besides joanne would look beautiful bald headed…ohhh la la…lol.

    Love em when they’re short, sweet and jump around with lots of short subjects. Good one.

  21. Ze Frank vs Rocketboom
    2:1 and game for Ze

    And by the way Baron, Web 2.0 is about interactivity… So what can I do on your website other then watching beautiful Joanne (boy she is hot!) and leaving meaningless comments?

    Pretty hair today, Joanne.

    Ze Frank is a pan-handler.

  23. So what can I do on Ze Frank’s site? Let’s see, post a picture of a vacuum cleaner, participate in the forum with a bunch of losers (I especially like the morbidly obese girl that posts an average of 30x a day), watch supportandcomfort and Ze ban anyone who disagrees with them, play with Ze’s ridiculous “games” and other juvenille nonsense. Oh, and of course, give the beggar money so he can continue on with his childish pursuits.

    Ze Frank’s audience is a bunch of retards.

  24. “Ze is a genius.” REALLY?! A genius?! And exactly what has Ze Frank done to deserve the “genius” title? Would he be a musical genius, such as Mozart? Oh, yes, of course, Ze composed the brilliant piece “Where the fuck do ideas come from” which will certainly go down in history as one of the most magnificent works ever created.

    Or do you think Ze is an intellectual genius? Ah, film yourself wearing an adult diaper on the outside of your jeans, and post it on the Web for all to see…now that is genius!

    Einstein, Darwin, Copernicus, DaVinci, Rembrandt, and, don’t forget….Ze Frank!

  25. Yea, Leron. Let’s have fun. Being too uptight about language is very boring and not so intelligent really. Also, comparing this site to that site, saying how holy wonderful joanne is, or whatever, is just a bore too. Let’s just have fun. Sure you’re great, joanne, but I am too. (and I do like your hair)

  26. Rocketboom isn’t very good. Sorry, it’s just not funny or clever. Good day.

  27. I wouldn’t doubt if the “Geek Fight” were invented by both Baron and Frank in an attempt to increase their audience size. You saw all the publicity generated by Congdon vs Baron. People love this shit. It’s why reality TV became popular. People are tired of their own boring lives. And they want to hear that other peoples lives are more fucked up than their own.

    Both Baron and Frank are really just little turds.

    But people talk. They get curious. The go to Ze’s site, to Rocketboom, to Alexa, and check things out…for a while anyway. If the sites are useful to them in some way, if they fill a need, the user gets hooked.

  28. “Ze is a genius.” REALLY?! A genius?! And exactly what has Ze Frank done to deserve the “genius” title?

    I believe the answer is that his IQ is 141 which exceeds the minimum generally considered “Genius”. The scientific community agrees that genius is hereditary; therefore there is nothing that Ze has done to achieve that moniker. But what do I know, I’m just a retard.

    And how do you measure creative genius?

    So did Ze take an online test that said he had an IQ of 141, because if so, then he must be a “genius.”

    Funny, Robin Williams doesn’t have an IQ of 141. I guess he’s not fortunate enough to be a genius, like Ze.

    Joanne-
    WARNING THIS MIGHT SUCK IN THE FIM GUY! :-)
    Remember I told you guys last week that if your liberal friends came in to power that taxes would go up and such that that would limit your ability to put out the quality show you guys do about the tech world. Well the guy that came up with the Michael Jordan basketball for North Korea Ad has come up with this one. Watch this:

  32. that intro looks like a “time-lapse”….not a “stop action.”

  33. RF, I’m convinced the people that frequent these vlog sites are all poverty stricken, so you’re talking to the wrong people. These bleeding heart liberals, the “creative” types, they believe they are better than every one else and entitled to the earnings of those that work hard to make a decent living. They don’t think it’s fair that someone who they perceive as being stupider than themselves and/or a non-creative type should be making so much more money than themselves. They want them to be taxed as much as possible because they think they deserve a cut.

  35. Profanity can be funny, whether you hear it on the subway or on RB. But in either venue, it’s funny less often than it gets credit for.

    On the topic of humor and profanity, here is Mark Twain’s note to Hartford Gas and Electric. Sensitive readers may wish to avert their gaze:

    Gentlemen: Someday you are going to move me almost to the point of irritation with your God-damned chuckle headed fashion of turning off your God-damned gas without giving notice to your God-damned parishioners–and you did it again last night.

  36. like RB very much and joanne as host(ess?) is fantastic. BUT honestly, every time i tune-in it seems joanne’s delivery is more and more over-the-top. i know quirkiness is part of the RB brand but consider: maybe you’re laying on the personality a little too thick these days? your content is great. joanne is great. can you just consider toning down your delivery a tad? we all get you are cerebral and playful. we really do.
