Man is this Mann resilient! Jonathan Mann has been writing a song and making a video every single day since January 1, 2009. That’s a long time, and a lot of catching up to do if you haven’t been tuned in to his YouTube stream. If you’d like a quick catch-up, here’s his 284th video, which is about Kickstarter, and his 819th video, which is also about Kickstarter and makes up for how bad the first one was. Jkjkjk! We love all of Jonathan’s videos even when they’re terrible, which he says is 20% of the time. 70% of the time they’re mediocre (also his words). But fishing for that 10% of awesomeness is totally worth it. It’s like vintage shopping — the search is half the fun!

Anywayz, Jonathan’s friends all have day jobs and lives and he’s been feeling a bit lonely in the YouTube rectangle. So he’s bringing you into the mix (along with his musician friends) to record an album of the crème de la crème of his song-a-days. Support the project here to get crazy-cool rewards, and to receive backer-only updates that include words like Wowholymolycowicantbelieveit!!!! Yes, Jonathan wrote this. Backers-only inside scoop.
