The internet: there’s a lot of stuff on it! This much we know. We’re drowning in content these
days and there’s far too many people making great stuff to spotlight at once, but it’s worth a
shot. In that spirit: here’s a roundup of some of our favorite sketches and videos from March.
Natasha Vaynblat — “NYC Realtor Sells Apartment Full of 700 Rats”

If we had to make this list every two days, Natasha Vaynblat (Comedy Central) would be a massive help. Her Twitter is constantly restocked with new characters and sketches in 60-seconds-or-less bites, all of which are worth a watch. Our favorite from this month was a—I’m sorry to say—barely exaggerated peek inside New York realty featuring a chipper Vaynblat selling you on the perks of a literal rat’s nest apartment. There are 10,000 other people looking at it though, so you better decide quickly.
Please Don’t Destroy — “The First Day of the Rest of Our Lives”
In this hypnotic short from the effortlessly mind-melded men of Please Don’t Destroy (Ben Marshall, Martin Herlihy and John Higgins), two recent high school graduates break to the third member of their trio that they don’t intend to move to L.A. to play for the Lakers. It’s both a pitch-perfect parody of some kind of Perks of Being A Wallflower climax, and a completely insane film in-and-of itself.
Blair Socci and Reggie Henke — “The Delivery Guy”
Blair Socci and Reggie Henke’s anti-rom-com featuring a not-meet-cute between a couch potato (Socci) and a sensitive Postmate (Joe Kwaczala) is probably the most West Coast video you’ll see all month, in addition to being one of the funniest. Once you watch and enjoy it (you will), you’ll be pleased to know that it’s the second part in the ongoing series “Blair’s Lair” [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z9e_TbPzP84] which chronicles Socci’s general inability to leave her apartment for any reason at all.
Jon Millstein — “Devastating Beto Attack Ad”

As we head into a contentious 2020 election cycle, it’s important not to let candidates off the hook when it comes to the issues that matter. For example, here’s Jon Millstein’s incredible attack ad that focuses its criticism of Beto O’Rourke on his most upsetting flaw: he’s not a particularly good skater. “The way he handles his board,” the ad notes, “it’s like he’s a nervous little kid.” It’s a takedown Beto is unlikely to recover from, but that’s politics, baby.
