This best-of video from RiffTrax doesn’t do justice to the howling I did listening to Bill and Kevin do some shorts about art projects with grass, safety, nothingness, and more at MaxFunCon.

What goes on at MaxFunCon? More than you might think. Cheese-making was one of the highlights of my weekend, because it was so hands-on, low-stress, high(maximum!)-fun, and extra tasty.
