SS Mothership / Read / Sticks & Stones Shitty Interview No.136

Currently typing through laughter tears after watching Sam Campbell’s latest video release; ‘A helpful tutorial on how to give your photos an old-timey feel’ dedicated to Julian Assange. When I asked Sam for some “about me” info to bulk up this intro paragraph he got back to me with ” I would say I am a comedian.” But I would like to add Actor, Writer, Animator & Director to his resume since he creates & stars in his own refreshingly weird & hilarious videos. We discovered Sam during the Melbourne Comedy Festival early this year & have been addicted to his antics ever since. When asked about his plans; “I am going to be performing in London for a while but soon I will release a comedy special on youtube, sometime before the end of the year.” In the meantime, please enjoy Sticks & Stones Shitty Interview No.136 with Australian Comedian Sam Campbell. And let’s add Artist to his repertoire!
