“Lesley” at XOJane.com has a nice long piece about what MST3K has meant to her life, and how she reacted to meeting her idols recently.
RiffTrax writer Conor Lastowka has written a book called “Gone Whalin’.” I will not even begin to try to explain the premise but I can’t wait to read it. And when Conor needed a good voice for his Youtube promo video, the choice was clear:
What an incredible article. I feel like Lesley is echoing my sentiments, even though I’m a failed writer with no will to succeed at the craft. MST3K similarly gave me a sense of friendship along with its impeccable humor. Thanks to the show, I was able to narrowly survive law school with my sanity intact. I now harass friends and coworkers with jokes from the show and make regular reference to the show with my fiancee, who made me a fan. I have tentatively come to embrace my own sense of humor thanks to MST3K, which makes it easier for me to bear the burdens of life. Thanks Lesley for a great read and thanks to the cast and crew of MST3K!

So these Rifftrax writers, what’s their deal? Do they write for the movie’s riffs? Is it for the website?
