Every once in awhile, some prepuce on Twitter will suggest that I’ve become a lazy stoner who doesn’t do anything anymore.
I get it: prior to TUSK, I hadn’t made a flick in 3 years. And since the flicks are how most folks came to know me, if there are no new films, I’m not on their movie radar anymore. So some folks assume, if I’m not making movies, I’ve stopped doing anything.
Truth is, I AM a stoner – but I stay busy. And every January, I like to provide an accounting of my time in the previous year. It’s a nice shield against the shitters, yes – but really, I do it so I’ve got a reminder in years to come of what I’ve done with my one and only life.
So here’s what Fat Kev Smith did in 2013…
- I recorded a buncha podcasts for SModcast.com…
41 episodes of HOLLYWOOD BABBLE-ON
44 episodes of SMODCAST
36 episodes of JAY & SILENT BOB GET OLD
30 episodes of FAT MAN ON BATMAN
20 episodes of EDUMACATION
10 episodes of FILM SCHOOL FRIDAYS
4 episodes of SMOVIEMAKERS
2 episodes of PLUS ONE
That’s 187 shows. This figure doesn’t include the guest appearances on other people’s podcasts (Girl on Guy, DVDASA, and every KROQ appearance that becomes a podcast, too). Obviously, I’m in love with the sound of my own voice.
As for where I went in and what I did in 2013? Check it…
