So The Real Cool Club has been on an indefinite haitus as TheStream.tv seeks a new sponsor to help us retain our studio. We’ve started the “#SaveOurStudio” campaign and could really use all of your help. Not only are we looking for a network sponsor, but my show, The Real Cool Club, is also looking for an individual sponsor. Once the show manages to find a sponsor willing to donate $1000/mo. we’re back on the air! The question now becomes, what sort of sponsor would want to have their name all over a successful, hilarious, new media crushing show like ours? Good question. Let’s find out!
If you know how to help The Real Cool Club find a sponsor, please email us at sponsorship(at)therealcoolclub.com. Also, all pertinent information regarding the sponsor hunt can be found HERE including links to a station press-pack, emails, contacts, etc. Go have at it, internetters! We miss doing the show for you and want it back just as much as you do! Let’s ROCK THIS!

Here is last night’s episode of The Real Cool Club. We had a BLAST and the show went to insanity early on. Seriously, click and watch. Gingers, Pants On The Ground, Mass Effect 2 and MORE. We try to see what sort of mischief they can get into now that 2010 has rolled around. Let’s get this year started off corrupt! We finally see the new Apple Tablet, we hear back from Chunkstradamus, and another PhotoChop Shop. We even stick it to another show on the network. Find out which one by viewing the episode!

by Ethan Newberry on Jan.20, 2010, under funny videos, the real cool club
We are back in the saddle again for season 2 of The Real Cool Club. We were joined by the hilarious and amazingly talented John Ross Bowie. You’ve seen him in “Glee”, “The Big Bang Theory”, “Curb Your Enthusiasm”, “Children’s Hospital” and more! He’s a good friend of mine and just chalk full of funny. There is plenty of hijinx and all-out craziness you’ve come to expect and love from The Real Cool Club. Farting robots, Leno vs. Conan, me crying like a pussy, and more! Definitely want to check out this episode. Click the image, bitch.

For Your Consideration: The 2010 Streamy Awards
by Ethan Newberry on Dec.21, 2009, under awards, blog, funny videos, improv, the real cool club
So The Real Cool Club just wrapped our first season and we couldn’t be more excstatic. We feel we’ve really pushed the live streaming medium to new heights and limits. Just looking back, we’ve managed to incorporate LIVE green screen, we did a LIVE interactive murder mystery (Thanks Sandeep!), we constantly engage our interactive audiences with challenges and opportunities to work themselves into the show, we did an 80′s sitcom callback episode, drag episode, celebrity guests and so much more. This was just the first season, people!
Now here’s what we’d love: to win a Streamy Award. The Real Cool Club fits into nearly every category that they are listing this year, and we truly feel that with a zero dollar budget we’ve managed to do more than anyone else out there. We have a lot to be proud about. But we’d love some of your help to win an award to bring back to our mantles at the end of the day. It wouldn’t be just The Real Cool Club’s award, it would be OUR award – you included. Obviously the show would not be where we are today if it wasn’t for our fantastic live viewers and fans. We love you.
So here’s the deal, nominations have begun on the Streamy Awards website (Http://Streamys.org) and we’d be honored if you would jump over and vote for The Real Cool Club in as many categories as you see fit. The best part is that you can vote once a day in every category, so keep doing it up until the deadline of January 15th! Okay, here are some categories we’d love to win:
- “Best Hosted Web Series”
- “Best Comedy Web Series”
- “Best Live Production in a Web Series”
- “Best Interactive Experience in a Web Series”
- “Best NEW Web Series”
- “Best Branded Entertainment Web Series”
- “Best Experimental Web Series”
- “Best Web Series Host — Ethan Newberry”
- “Best Art Director — Ethan Newberry”
- “Best Celebrity Appearance in a Web Series — Debra Skelton, The Real Cool Club or Sandeep Parikh, The Real Cool Club or Alan Thicke, The Real Cool Club”
What do you guys say? Want to help the lil engine that could win a big giant award? Please?? Finally, promote it on your twitter. Include @streamyawards and @TheRealCoolClub. This helps spread the word. Thanks!
