Meet the Failcrew – Tessa Jerz

Posted on by

Hi! Oh my gosh, it’s so great to see you! I mean I was just sitting here thinking “you know who it’d be awesome to see?” and my first answer was Chuck Testa but THEN I thought it’d be even better if it was the Ice Cream Truck man because who doesn’t want ice cream from a truck? I mean, it’s like normal ice cream, only it’s from a truck! And it’s in the shape of awesome fun characters and has little gumballs for eyes which is maybe a little gross when you really think about it cause its like eww I’m eating these character’s eyes but they’re really yummy so I kind of just ignore it.

Huh? Oh! Yeah! And then you all showed up! Isn’t that great? What? You want to know stuff about me? Really? Sure!

I’m Tessa Jerz, and I do random stuff for the things. I also may or may not be a pony, and one who is considerably hyped up on caffeine and sugar at any given moment.

What is your role in Made of Fail Productions?

I’m one of the writers for Deconstructing Moya, and I run a fledgling World of Warcraft podcast called The Reliquary. I’m also on the main show from time to time, usually annoying everyone with my total fangirlish obsession with my various fandoms.

Meet the Failcrew – Noel Thingvall

This week, we hunt down the ever ellusive (yet always there) Noel Thingvall, who swims through screenplays, ascends mountains of books, boxes his comics long, watches films in a watching way, and hasn’t seen all that much tv lately since ditching his cable. He writes more about all of it than anyone online has any interest in reading, but we love him for it anyway. Or at least he says you all love him for it, seeing as he’s writing these words right now and has an ego the size of a hottub. A constantly running hottub full of naked expectations and lonely despair. Seriously, he’s naked and lonely right now and thinking of a hottub. Pity him. Respect his massive ego and read his writings, but pity him dearly.

Constant thorn in the side AKA elevated fanboy who does everything Kevin does.

This week brings us a very special person to us all – after all, she’s the source of most our following. Cleolinda Jones steps up to the plate!

What is your role in Made of Fail Productions?

Generally I’m on guest retainer for Twilight (Senior Sparkle Correspondent, as it were) and Harry Potter episodes of Made of Fail, although I’ve been on for at least two other subjects, I think, and served as Not Dayna a couple of times. I really would like to branch out THE HUNGER GAMES and talk about other LORD OF THE RINGS subjects BATMAN, though.

Meet the Failcrew – Devin Baker

Greetings, fellow internet denizens! I’m Devin Baker, editor of the Made of Fail podcast. You might know me from fandoms such as DC Comics, Square-Enix (particularly Kingdom Hearts), and my lovely fiancée.

What is your role in Made of Fail Productions?

I take the ball of words that is the raw take of Made of Fail and shape it into something that sounds like a podcast—segments, interludes, intros, etc. It’s a fairly easy task; the hosts are good at moderating the discussion and keeping it lively, though I do have to cut the occasional flub or tangent that goes too far afield.

If you haven’t read our Podcasting Guide and you’re interested in editing, scroll to the top of the screen and click the button for some great advice. It’s how I learned.

Hey everyone. I’m Dayna Abel, co-host and PR agent extraordinaire, here for Meet the Failcrew! To sum me up: I’m a proud geekess, happily married, living with the best husband, cats and roommates ever in the ‘burbs of New Orleans. I love a ton of stuff – comics, mostly DC; RPGs, mostly Square Enix’s; pretty much anything Joss Whedon does; horror movies; World Of Warcraft (as of last July); Terry Brooks; David and Leigh Eddings; True Blood; and Wil Wheaton. Annnnnnnnnd GO QUESTIONS GO!

What is your role in Made of Fail Productions?

I am the co-creator and co-host, as well as the Public Relations Manager for Made Of Fail Productions. Usually this consists of plugging the show everywhere I can conceivably do so, be it online, at a convention or at my local comic shop or GameStop. I also scout for potential guests and communicate as often as I can with fans. I try to come up with good topics for the show, as well as horrible episode titles, and I am usually the face of the show as I am way prettier than Kevin. XD

This week we meet the mastermind behind the curtain, Kevin O’Shea. Standing at a respectable 5’9″, our hero effortlessly takes on all challenges as they come. He never knew you liked pina coladas, getting caught in the rain, the feel of the ocean, or the taste of champagne.

What is your role in Made of Fail Productions?

Master overlord. Or rather, I’m the original co-creator of the flagship podcast, as well as the owner and producer of Made of Fail Productions as a whole. I generally make sure everyone’s projects are running smoothly and are connected to the main site. I also take and sort applications for new projects, set up new sites and space, and come up with the majority of the ideas for content.
