Writer/Director Jon Hurwitz's (W'00) just emailed me with news that his Harold & Kumar 2 Teaser Trailer is now online.

From IMDB: The sequel "follows the cross-country adventures of the pot-smoking duo as they try to outrun authorities who suspect them of being terrorists when they try to sneak a bong on board their flight to Amsterdam."

The film was was co-written and co-directed by Jon and stars future Penn professor Kal Penn. (Kal is teaching a class or two at Penn beginning in January.)

From Spark notes, to social security, to not taking a water before a job interview, Jason Schneider (C'07) is hysterical.

From his website: "Jason has appeared briefly on the Howard Stern Show. and was twice selected to appear on Comcast Cable On Demand, in their "Local Comics" Showcase. Most recently, Jason was selected as a finalist in the 2007 "Philly's Phunniest" competition. Jason has also been profiled in numerous print magazines, including Philadelphia Weekly, The Daily Pennsylvanian, and 34th Street Magazine."

You have to watch his act!

In another new way of connecting alumni, last week at the Los Angeles PennClubLA event at the Crescent Hotel in Beverly Hills I chatted a bit with Gabe Laskin (C'05, Mask and Wig). He told me he was looking for a job in sports facility management. I figured it would be easier if you just listened directly from Gabe. (if you are reading this post via an RSS feed, you'll have to click here to view the video on the site)

After we filmed this video, Gabe told me he wanted to add that he is interested in any venue sort of management (big venues, especially) -from sports venues to venues which feature live touring acts, i.e. concerts.

Any Los Angeles alumni out there who can speak with Gabe? Email Gabe at lasking@gmail.com.

“tweens actually have proven to be a very viable audience to reach on linear television. They are very loyal; they are not as fickle as people think they are.” Teenagers, he said, are tougher to reach, once they are unleashed by parents into the digital world."
