Cody Westphal — It’s Hard Asking Out A Barista

Hi guys! Cody and Jason here. 

You know, those two guys who made I Love Charts.  Don’t you miss 2013? Us too. 

Anyway, we worked together on an album of Cody’s songs, which we’re both really proud of, called What Selling Out Is and Why It Feels Bad. It’s a fun, eclectic album, with really charming songs. There are big squealing guitars in some places and intimate acoustic tracks elsewhere, some humor and some heartbreak. We hope you check it out and enjoy it!

This is the first video and single from the album. it’s a song about baristas, and the extent to which it is difficult to ask them out. 

Thank you, as always, for being the best internet friends. Sorry we aren’t around as much anymore. Hope you’re all well.

I’m pleased to announce that The Hustle Economy is out now and available wherever books are sold!

The absurdly prolific Jessica Hagy (of the blog Indexed) and I rounded up a bunch of talented creatives and asked them to share their best wisdom on surviving the gig economy. I edited their words and Jessica illustrated with her signature pithy charts. Now, the book exists! 

It’s a particular thrill to help so many people I admire so much share their insights, and I hope whoever picks up a copy finds something in there that helps them. It remains a challenging economy and the best way I’ve found to navigate that has been asking people like these for advice as often as they’ll let me.

The full list of contributors, in order of appearance:

Nick Douglas — comedy writer Jason Oberholtzer — editor, producer, consultant and most importantly, me Ben Grelle (The Frogman) — internet comedian, writer, photographer and graphic artist Adrian Sanders — cofounder of Beacon Farah Khalid — film editor Mike Rugnetta — producer, performer Emma Koenig — television writer and humorist Asha Dornfest — founder of Parent Hacks Kelsey Hanson — founder of Vocal Design Mónica Guzman — columnist and Neiman Fellow Thomas Leveritt — director, author and painter Casey Bowers — writer Josephine Decker — director, film editor and performance artists Donna Salgado — dance artist Alex Pearlman — recovering entrepreneur and digital news girl Dante Shepherd — professor and web comic Brad O’Farrell — game maker Jess Kimball Leslie — trendspotter Meredith Haggerty — writer, editor, the hero we deserve Alex Larsen (aka Kid Twist) — battle rapper and game designer Nancy Zastudil —gallerist, curator and arts writer Lee LeFever — cofounder and creative director of Common Craft Jess Wysaski — blogger and humorist Jessica Hagy — artist and writer Zach Weinersmith — web comic 

Thank you again to all these wonderful people and to all of you who follow this blog for having put me in the position to be doing pretty much anything I do, including put out books every now and then. It’s a dream.
