brokelyn:
A dive bar is a place that should have cheap beer, yes, but also decent service and some sense of being permanently etched into the landscape. If it’s baffling or intimidating to newcomers, all the better. If you walk into a bar, sit down with your beer and are suddenly being lectured on the terrible decision the Rangers made to trade for goddamn Phil Esposito 40 years ago, you know...

broadist:
14 doesn’t feel so long ago… Thank you for this question. It’s fitting, because I am 24, about to turn 25, so a nice ten years past that age. My answer is partially advice, partially things I wish I knew a lot sooner, and partially stuff I would like to say to my 14-year-old self right now.
Only hang out with people you like.
I promise that no matter your appearance, you will be...

five ways to kick ass on kickstarter! →
Disclaimer: I don’t work for Kickstarter. I don’t have an account. I don’t have a project of my own for you to look at.
Like most broke folks, I am sincerely, both-feet-in awe-struck by the website known as Kickstarter, “the world’s largest funding platform for creative projects.” And like you, probably, I’ve noticed an influx of people in my network using the site to their advantage. And, like...

Broadist on Bust!!!! →
broadist:
I gotta say, this is one of our proudest broad-related moments of all time.
I went through my college years absorbing every page of BUST and yearning to one day be a part of this amazing publication. Well, I’m not a contributor (yet?) but I can say that seeing myself on Bust’s blog…

hey Muhlenberg
I’m going to be at Muhlenberg College’s Media & Communication Alumni Week. Thursday and Friday. To talk about ~adult life after school~ but mainly blogging, social media, and the music industry! I am also moderating a panel about TV.
I hope to see you and meet you maybe if you promise not to be a weird jerk.

2011, in review
broadist:
I started off 2011 like any normal girl in Brooklyn: hangover brunch, front-desk shift at the concert venue, followed by a month-long bout of pneumonia. So I spent most of January in New Jersey, thankful that my insurance had just re-kicked in. Many friends would console me, “isn’t that how that girl from Broadcast died? Shit.” I think we had a housewarming party while I was still on...
