Episode 14 - Help Is Here! Rebranding The Podcast

<p>Welcome to the new What's Up With Me! What's up with you? How you &nbsp;doing??</p> <p>Before going further, I messed up. It's not the "Shots in the arms, &nbsp;money in the pockets." or the "Hope is here" campaign. It's the "Help Is &nbsp;Here" tour.</p> <p>If you've been following the podcast, you're used to me stream of &nbsp;conscious rambling about Curbside Comedy and other stand-up comedy pursuits. To be honest, my life isn't that interesting to talk about me for 20 minutes every other week, so I figured it was time for a change.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm a comedian and content creator. Let's make content and be funny. &nbsp;We're starting off the episode with a new segment called "News I Saw." Sometimes the news we read is important. Sometimes it's not. Thanks to &nbsp;social media, we're all getting different versions of the news, so I'll &nbsp;share the news I saw including:</p> <p>&nbsp;- NFL Free Agency&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;- Joe Biden &amp; COVID-19 Relief</p> <p>&nbsp;- March Madness</p> <p>&nbsp;- The Grammys</p> <p>&nbsp;- Harry Styles</p> <p>&nbsp;- Adam Driver &amp; Lady Gaga in sweaters</p> <p>&nbsp;- Goldman Sachs 95 Hour Work Weeks</p> <p>I said not all of the news is important.</p> <p>After the news I saw, we're diving into some content creation. This week I'm working on voice-overs and audio mixing. I hope you like the brief, motivational ad I made.</p> <p>We wrap up the show with Trevor Glassman and I sitting down earlier talking about his ability to network and roast. Trevor and I have been through a lot together. Literally an entire pandemics worth of stand-up comedy. We started Curbside Comedy together and he's a great sounding board to help me grow as a comedian.&nbsp;</p> <p>Check Trevor out on Instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/thetrevorglassman/">@thetrevorglassman</a></p> <p>Tune into his radio show "HAYWIRE! with Trevor Glassman" <a href="//bepositiveproductions.com/2021/01/check-us-out-on-b-positive-radio">B Posi+ive &nbsp;Radio</a>. You can call in &nbsp;Monday at 12pm ET/11am CT at (904) 413-1828</p>

Episode 13 - Survivor Application

<p>With the beginning of March comes the end of the #CastConnorOnSurvivorCampaign. This month, I've watched 12 seasons of Survivor, spent countless hours doing math problems that're probably irrelevant and making some sketches that took longer to set up production than film.&nbsp;</p> <p>All that hard work didn't go to waste—I made my fourth application which I make on this here episode. We'll see where it all goes from there.</p> <p>While I enjoyed having a funnel to channel my creative energy, I'm glad to not be spending countless hours staring at a screen wondering, "How can I shoot all that with only one person?"</p> <p>Two more sketches were made at over the last two weeks. For those of you who are only listening to audio, head over to the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGUcCVi6MTE70UJbb4PRAOg">YouTube channel</a> to watch.&nbsp;</p> <p>Where do we go from here? Clearly, a more sustainable pursuit. I'm going to be working on the YouTube channel trying to learn more about how that platform works and in the process find a way to get myself establishing some good lifestyle habits.&nbsp;</p> <p>To send me a question, connect with me on Instagram, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/connor_kwiecien/">@connor_kwiecien</a>, via email, comedy@connorkwiecien.com, or head to my website <a href="https://www.connorkwiecien.com/whats-up-with-me">connorkwiecien.com</a>.</p>

Episode 12 - Empirical Evidence and Cold Hard Statistics For Survivor

<p>What's up with me? Just trying to get cast on Survivor. How about you?</p> <p>This month I've been stockpiling evidence for why I should be cast on Survivor in my #CastConnorOnSurvivor campaign. It's time to lay out what I have so far. If you see this Jeff—nice.</p> <p><u><strong>Empirical Evidence</strong></u></p> <p>In 13 days, I've watched 7 seasons of Survivor. I'm a student of the game.</p> <p>An abundance of support has come my way on social media. I sincerely appreciate the people who've reached out, including those who thought I've already made it onto the show.</p> <p><a href="https://youtu.be/IQvJAnv9yGw">I made a sketch because why not?</a></p> <p><u><strong>Cold Hard Statistics:</strong></u></p> <p><strong>At the beginning of February, I put out an Instagram poll that asked, "Would I do well on Survivor?"</strong></p> <p>Here is the data I received in return.&nbsp;</p> <ul> <li>Yes: 28</li> <li>No: 8</li> </ul> <p>"P" denotes the probability of a certain event occurring or a certain parameter being true for a certain population</p> <p>P prime, sometimes referred to as “P-hat” and henceforth to as p’, is a reliable representation of p only if the sample is large enough and is truly random.</p> <p>The formula for p’ is X/n.</p> <p>X = the number of successes &nbsp;n = the size of the sample</p> <p><strong>Our Variables:</strong></p> <p>n= 36 &nbsp;X=28</p> <p>therefore,</p> <p>p’= 28/36 = 0.7777777778</p> <p><strong>What do we do next?</strong></p> <p>What we’re trying to calculate is a 95% confidence level, henceforth CL, in our sample. To do this we must calculate the Error Bound Proportion, or EBP.</p> <p>EBP = (z (alpha/2) * (squareroot ((p’q’)/1n)&nbsp;</p> <p>where q’ = 1 - p’</p> <p>q’ = 1 - 0.7777777778, so q’ = 0.2222222222</p> <p>Since CL = 0.95, then α = 1 – CL = 1 – 0.95 = 0.05</p> <p>Therefore, (a / 2) = 0.025.</p> <p>But we still need to do that z thing.</p> <p>Use the TI-83, 83+, or 84+ calculator command invNorm(0.975,0,1) to find z0.025</p> <p>To save you the trouble (z ( alpha / 2 ) = 1.96.</p> <p>Now that we have our whole formula, we can calculate</p> <p>EBP = 1.96 * (squareroot ( ( 0.7777777778 * 0.2222222222 ) / 36) = 0.1358083051</p> <p>Therefore, Connor Kwiecien’s Instagram @Connor_Kwiecien estimate with 95% confidence that between 90.58% &amp; 63.42% think that I would do well on Survivor.</p> <p>I'm 100% confident it is at the upper limit.&nbsp;</p> <p>Do you see an error in my math?
