New 30MOM BLOG entry—and like everything else on the site, best viewed on a non-phone. This is a new entry in our Lost & Found Footage series—a public access TV special from 1993 starring The Ghoul (and featuring myself and Dan Augustine in the audience). The video is on our site and archive.org. Watch that then go on a deep-dive text journey giving some context to who The Ghoul was and his impact on the metro Detroit zeitgeist. #staysick #turnblue #climbwalls #scratchglass #parma #30mom #publicaccess #patv

12 years ago we wrapped a month-long shoot for 30MOM episode 15. This video was a promo cut from that footage and screened only once, at the wrap party. Dusting it off for posterity. Music by VENT. 📼📼📼📼📼 30 MINUTES OF MADNESS WILL NEVER DIE!

Joe Hornacek has some things to say about the VHS release of 20 Years of Madness. Available now via @lunchmeatvhs 📼🔥

Excited to be an Official Selection of UZUMUMBA LICHTSPIEL, KURZ UND BILLIG in Frankfurt, Germany on August 2nd, 2024. Sally & Boblo, starring John Ryan & Susan Pipper, will be screening in a program of no-budget short films. From camcorder home movies to cell phone shorts—fantastic films made with no money!! Thank you doppelregie & @uzumumba_kiosk 📼📼📼📼📼 #30mom #indiefilm #vhs

Absolutely adore this trophy from @filmquest and now have the engraving to go with it! If you have a genre film, definitely submit it to FilmQuest y'all!!

FYI: there are currently 105 videos in the vault on 30MOM.COM

30MOM has always been on the bleeding edge of trends, so it's no surprise that last year we added a weblog or "blog" to the site (best viewed on desktop, maybe someday we'll make a "mobile-friendly" page). There's some cool shit here though folks! A bunch of "best of" selected by stars of the show, a retrospective on our collaborative comic series, and the latest entries, "Lost & Found Footage" which explore some obscure/vintage video ephemera and also have cool animated gifs. Go to the site, read and watch, enjoy and chill. Thanks!! 📼📺💻🕸️📹 #30mom #worldwideweb #blog #internet #hashtag #webzone #html

Ronald still has something to say! The check is in the mail @fatedtopretend #tastefulnudes #30mom #vhs #flyer #xerox

How about this: make more crappily interesting, amateur art. Fuck up in ways that only you can fuck up—and if AI ever trains on your weird fingerprints, become an even weirder human. As corporations and AI chase perfection and street cred, embrace flaws and obscurity. Make shit that only three people think is funny—or one, yourself. #30mom #patv #amateur #doodle
