It is so weird that there are two identical Internet startup mattress companies with the exact same target audience and advertising profile, both selling internet delivery mattresses that are mildly cheaper than a mattress store but 2-3x more expensive than ikea and the single pont of difference is the one (I can't remember which) makes a big deal out of the unboxing. They even have basically the same name.

Its insane..

My queen sized Casper is the only thing I've ever bought from a podcast. It's not the firmest mattress, but I can't complain since I got $200 off thanks to Earwolf* promo code, an additional code because their factory had a shortage that delayed shipment a week, and two randos on Twitter using my referral code.

*I literally have no idea if it was from Earwolf.

I actually just ordered a Leesa mattress a couple days ago using promo code bang bang (not that i needed to because the site pops up with a promo code automatically anyways). I have an ikea mattress that is not comfortable and also pretty old now, so I figured I'd give one of these internet mattresses a try.

I think I'd shell out for a good box spring before I spent too much money on a mattress. But what the hell do I know. I'm just a young man looking for a good time.

Yeah, just about to head out, probably going to try to get into East Village for now, as this says it's currently got the most reasonable lines out of the major theaters. Planning on doing the Chelsea post-midnight show again until I pass out in my seat. Historically this is around 4:30 in the morning. Saturday I always have big plans but end up just sporadically going to shows.

The app is actually pretty solid this year, with the ability to add favorites and build your own schedule.

Started off at Magnet yesterday to see some solid stuff. Late night at Chelsea was once again fantastic, I was the second to last person to get in at the start, waited ~2 hours so not too bad. Gemberling an Ozeri topped themselves with Davin and Danielle once again, stripped 5 audience members naked while thrusting into them in their sparkling unitards and just asking their names then repeating "Danielle, Danielle" in robotic tones over and over again for 15 minutes. Watched Will Hines on his knees eating a burrito out of one of his adult babies rear end crack. And a lot more weird poo poo. Managed to make it until just before the theater cleaning, but yeah heading over to the Beast now for some more standard fare.

I don't get the Earwolf engineers. I mean the shows sound pretty good so they're capable but catching errors like that are part of the job. And there are plenty of times when they walk out during the recording. How they get away with that, I'll never know.

What gave you the idea that Earwolf was a particularly well run organization? This is a place where a $200 donation will get you a blank sheet of printer paper with the performers signatures on it. Until they get backed up and have to catch up on 2 years worth of donations and never get around to it. Engineers walking out in the middle of shows totally fits.

I mocked them in this thread ages ago, but I bought some with the offer code from CBB (still expensive, mind) as a birthday present and they were received very gratefully. Not something worth buying for yourself, but make a nice gift as they're fairly unusual.

Yea feels like it's like the Flower site that gets advertised around holidays and all, you order that for others as a neat treat, not really because you're going 'man you know what I want? SOME MOTHERFUCKING BERRIES'
