It is one thing to have a dream come true.

It is one thing to have a dream come true.

It is one thing to get to have a childhood dream come true. It’s another level entirely to have it come true while holding your baby in your arms, in front of your amazing wife and two close friends. Thank you, @syracusemets for an unparalleled experience.

Even if Violet literally slept through it.

Steve Hofstetter to debate a MAGA "creator"

My debate with MAGA “creator” Mike Bayles just got even more fun.

I will be debating Mike live on June 9^(th) to raise money for the Steel City Arts Foundation and the Wounded Warrior Project. Mainly, I will be debating him to entertain you and make myself laugh.

Mike is graciously taking time out of posting bigoted memes and making confused faces in the bottom corner of stolen reels from other creators. He picked the subject of voting rights and I promised not to do any research on it because that will make it so much funnier when I run circles around this Jim Crow-MAGAnon.

To make the debate even more incredible, two brilliant political creators have stepped up to join us. The debate will be moderated by Nick of u/nicksthoughts7, and there will be live fact-checking courtesy of u/kellieintheknow (Co-host of The Girls Are podcast).

You can grab a ticket on my website if you haven’t already. This is not something you’ll want to miss.

I said I’d never tried a cup of coffee until a few years ago and the internet got very very mad at me.

 

But I simply didn't like the taste. And don't worry - me not liking the taste of coffee doesn't prevent YOU from liking the taste of coffee. It's just that black coffee, or even coffee with cream and sugar, isn't for me.

 

And then, something happened that changed my life forever. Or at least my mornings.

 

A friend recommended I try a flavored latte. I told him I didn’t know what those words meant. But he got me one, and it was amazing. It was an alarm clock that tasted like a milk shake. I got super into lattes. So much so that three weeks later, I had a latte machine at home. And that’s how I know I can never try cocaine.

 

I am not trying cocaine. But I am doing something. I partnered with the folks at Minoqua Brewing Company to create Milkshake Alarm Clock. It's a flavored latte in a can, so you can grab it to go. My first flavor is blueberry vanilla. But if that goes well, I am already working on lots of other tasty ideas, like raspberry white chocolate, bananas foster, and more. Think of it as a desert that helps you not fall asleep at work. Or an alarm clock that tastes like a milkshake.

 

This is not the first canned latte. One thing that makes mine different is the flavor - believe me when I tell you it is fucking GOOD. But also, ours is lower calorie than most, made with oat milk, produced and canned domestically, and every last person involved with it from the production company to the graphic designer is against fascism. Think of Milkshake Alarm Clock as wake up juice for woke people.

 

You can grab some by visiting MilkShakeAlarmClock.com. I know, it's not cheap. But that's because mailing liquid isn't cheap. We're working on getting them into stores and cafes, too, where it will be MUCH more affordable. We start retail distribution in Illinois, Minnesota, and Wisconsin. So tag your favorite grocery store, gas station, bagel shop, or anywhere else. And if you run a retail shop that would carry this, please reach out directly. And let me know where we should hold our launch event. If you have a cool local coffee shop where you want me to do a launch show, tag em!

 

When I released my sleep gummies earlier this year, I was already working on this. I figured if I can help woke people sleep, I should also help them wake up. I am excited to finally be able to tell you about it. And don't worry, I'm not going to keep releasing new products. Though I am very tempted to partner with my friends at MyCluckHut for an anti-MAGA soap. Maybe I can call it Make America Bathe Again.

 

Anyway, I hope you enjoy Milkshake Alarm Clock. Thanks for reading.
