Guys! I have a thing for you to win! I know! Exclamation points!
I have some very clever friends. And some very clever acquaintances. And some of those people are married to each other. (Sheesh. I know.) So I may be pushing it when I say this, but for purposes of right now, let’s say My Friend Jeff Parkin [1] (what? We’ve had dinner together…) made a really fun web series with some of his film students. It’s called “The Book of Jer3miah” – and it’s a conspiracy thriller (totally appropriate for audiences of many ages). And the series is available online. And also, now, the series is available to buy on a disc. And more also, now the series disc is available RIGHT HERE. It’s here, beside me, in this room.
Here is some information:
(Because we love information.)

The New York Times reviewed it and called it “a tight, suspenseful little series” with “quick dialogue and funny supporting characters,” and concluded, “when celestial smackdowns are a plot possibility, things can get pretty hardcore. And that makes for good web drama.”
Here’s a link to the trailer:

Did you click it? Did you watch it? Do you want it? Okay. Here’s all you have to do. Comment on this post, and I’ll pick a winner and mail that winner the disc. Life doesn’t offer you winnings THAT EASY very often. Hey, winner? You have to live in the US or Canada, because shipping is pricey, don’t you know.

Conspiracy! Thriller! Filmed at a place that looks a lot like the university I attended, lo these many years ago! Check out the trailer, and watch the TED talk, and comment to be in the running. I’ll choose a random winner on Saturday, how ’bout that?

[1] this links to his TED talk, which is awesome — about the power of Story.
Okay, you have my attention. Never heard of this series but I’m interested now. Love the fresh modern day twist on a familiar Gadianton theme. I was a fan of the Heimerdinger series way back but this looks like it will blow Chris’s work out of the water. Funny thing is, I related to the conspiracy angle. Alright, I’ll say it, I’m a conspiracy theorist only I don’t think they are theories – I have proof. Haha, now I’m sounding like Jeremiah. I think I’m going to enjoy this series. Thanks

I wish there was more stuff like this. I rarely watch TV anymore because the moral standards have gotten so low. Hope he keeps doing more stuff like this! 🙂

Alright, I’m intrigued. So you should give it to me, because I am your favorite almost-adopted daughter . . . yes?
Brenna, I find your logic intriguing.
