"Opportunites multiply as they are seized."
--Sun Tzu

If you like politics, comic books, science-fiction and other sorts of nerdieness, you're my kind of people.

About my SNL Reviews . . . I've worked in the Chicago Improv Community for over 25 years and have had the opportunity to work alongside Tina Fey, Stephen Colbert, Chris Farley, Jim Belushi, Steve Carell, Horatio Sanz, Rachel Dratch as well as many more of the funniest writers, actors and Directors in the world. I tend to be a tough audience. . .

And just for the record, I don't play with dolls:
THEY'RE ACTION FIGURES!!!

Welcome to Britethorn.

About Me:
 
Britethorn is both my Voice as well as my Guerrilla film making operation run by myself, John Kramer -- with a lot of help from my many friends in the Chicago Improv Community.
Political Satire is my main beat, but I've been known to get distracted from time to time and wander off into other areas of comedy -- like my series of "I HATE SPORTS" vlogs.

My work has appeared on shows such as CNN's "This Week in Politics" and I've made appearances on such disparate media platforms as FOX CHICAGO SUNDAY, WGN RADIO and AL JAZEERA ENGLISH'S "The Listening Post," where I am a regular contributor as one of their Global Village Voices.
I've also been interviewed by The New York Times as well as my hometwon paper, The Chicago Tribune.

My film (with Johnny Bruder) "Hit Men" was the winner of Sony Pictures/Crackle.com's first Short Film Award, for which I walked away with a $15,000 check as well as a pitch meeting at Columbia Pictures -- a great experience, but no sale -- although I did get to take a look at the Best Picture Oscar for "Kramer vs Kramer" in Columbia's lobby.

Britethorn  
In case you were wondering, Britethorn is the name of the main character in a fantasy novel which I wrote, but which was never published. He was a partisan character who, nevertheless, always struggled to see both sides of every issue, much as I myself do.

Please try and wake up.
What Bush did to our economy is wrong and Obama is just continuing it.
I was never a big BUSH fan, but I believe in voting and I couldn't bring myself to vote for Obama.
Obama is a far left RADICAL Saul Alinsky politician.
We are heading toward another GREAT DEPRESSION at this rate.
NoCensorshipYT (1 month ago)
Your comments about Obama winning the Nobel prize are some of the STUPIDEST I've heard.

It is official after waisting two great host and hostess (Ryan Renolds and Drew Barrymore) I can tell SNL will not be has jumped the shark after being consistanly good for about nine or ten years ( a strech that breaks even the great strech they had in the late eigty -early ninties). But I guess they muster up great scethes from time to time and they still have great talent on the show and I can't wait till next week when they have SHAKIRA as their music.

P.S. I hope for next week they have a better cold oppening they need to retire thier Obama "impersonation" for some time.

You're welcome I'm glad I found your channel. Congratulation on winning the 15,000 for your short film. Independent filmmaking is a hard road.

Now that we're done giving Thanks, I think we should take a moment to point out some things that need changing about the holidays.
