    Introducing: Sixteenth Minute (of Fame)

    Introducing: Sixteenth Minute (of Fame)

    Hi Cool People Who Did Cool Stuff Fans! Take a listen to the trailer of our newest show Sixteenth Minute (of Fame)

    About the show: Sixteenth Minute (of Fame) is a weekly show from Jamie Loftus that takes a closer look at the internet’s main characters – one part reported, one part interviews, and one part Jamie collapsing her permanently internet-damaged brain. Whether it’s an enduring meme or a dreaded Character of the Day distinction, it’s the kind of notoriety that often results in little money, unwarranted attention, and a confusing blurred line of consent. What do you do when you get more attention and judgement than any one person is built to handle? The Sixteenth Minute of Fame is the place where we figure that out, putting people in the context of the moment they've been frozen inside of.
