Gundam Style (with Nic Adenau)
It’s the season one finale of Did I Do That? and we are not throwing away our shot on this one! Meme curator and design leader Nic Adenau (AKA Nic A of TikTok’s Lofi Art School) joins Sean to talk Sha Na Na, Jackass’ leadership lessons, and the sketchiest way to send a $30,000 chain when it absolutely, positively has to be there overnight.You can find Nic on TikTok @lofiartschool! You can also find Lofi Art School on the web, with links to some other services if you prefer!This is the first season’s finale, but don’t worry! We’re not going anywhere—at least in one sense! Sean is venturing out into the world to record a few new guests in parts unknown, and new episodes will return August 25. Until then, though, we’ll be taking a cue from summer prime-time TV and pivoting to reruns of “old” favorites—as the extraordinarily lazy 1998 ad campaign for NBC’s summer reruns once put it, “if you haven’t seen it, it’s new to you!” If you’re hoping to get a friend into the show, though, maybe now’s a great time?Follow the show on some of the things via our website, dididothat.design! You can also find the show’s Patreon there, should you find yourself in a Brewster’s Millions type scenario where you need to get rid of money fast and any old thing will do (or, you know, if you just like this thing and want to help support its production). Either way is fine by me!If you enjoyed this episode and want to support the show, help spread the word! Five-star reviews are always welcome, as are written reviews if you need something to keep your idle hands at bay. Don’t want to deal with the hassle of stars or keys? Telling a friend IRL is a great way to avoid both, and helps the show plenty!Got a story to share? If you’re a graphic designer or know one who might have a story that would be a good fit for this show, reach out! Sean is booking out guests for this summer hiatus and would love to have you on board. Email hi@seanschumacher.com if you’re interested! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
