Mr. Deity Short: Miracles
Shooting with yourself is never easy. There's no one I hate working with more than me. I'm rarely on time. I can remember my lines, and I'm just not one of those actors who really "gives" much to the other actor when my back is to camera.
The interesting thing about this Mr. Deity short, is that I spent most of today reworking the ending. My original ending looked like I was mocking Mitch McConnell's recent freeze ups. I really didn't want that. But boy did that mess things up. Which is why I'm posting so late tonight.
I don't want to say too much more. I'll let you go in fresh. But I did include the begging segment — since so many of you prefer the BS to the actual shows (people have actually told me that, and I never mind). Enjoy!
Once again, I find myself overwhelmed with gratitude. It really does seem amazing to me that this is what I get to do with my life. I hope you can tell how much I enjoy making these videos. And I hope they genuinely make your lives a little better. Thanks you so much for helping me fight the good fight!
Stay safe and smart, 'cause some people can't do both (or either). I'll see you next month with more spectacular videos. Be well! B
P.S.: Oh!!! I talked to Jimbo (Larry) earlier this month, and when I told him I was making this Mr. Deity short, he said, "hey, you should have me on every now and then"!!!! WHAT?!!!! So, we'll have that to look forward to. He'll shoot his side from North Carolina, and I'll shoot mine here in LA. It'll be a Zoom call or something. But we'll make it work. I hope you find that as exciting as I do. Maybe I can get Sean to shoot one too. Fingers crossed!

I LOVE IT ! ! ! ! !
Makes my day to see Mr. Deity again, so true to self! The interviewer should have couched his request with fervent thoughts and prayers! 😂 I just hope that, if "Larry" and "Jesse" reappear, we'll get to see "Lucy" again, too! Maybe even "Joe," decked out in his masonic temple outfit.
Don’t think we’ll ever see Lucy again. Maybe for a twentieth anniversary episode(?). But I wouldn’t count on it. 😕
Hey Brian... ask Mr. Deity if He can make my husband smarter. lol.
I think that’s the first Begging Segment i’ve seen since belatedly becoming a patron. I’ve missed them! Shame about that “forward-slash”, though… 😒
I always wonder about that "water into wine" thing ... I mean, running out of wine at a wedding, is that something a big-time god (son of god) would care about?
