Japanese TV Interview for Fake Dog Video

A Japanese TV station, Fuji TV, asked me if they could do a Skype interview with me. I said of course. It took place at 9am California time and 2am Japanese Time. Viral videos are pretty wild.





Here's the original video.

Random Update cause I'm bored

It's the biggest snow storm to hit the east coast since 1996 (I almost died in the snowstorm of '96) and I'm in California missing out! Cold weather inst always fun but snow storms are and missing out on this is the first time I've been like 'damn I wish I was back east still.'
      Scratch that, its the second time. When the Golden Globes were on and I couldn't watch it live because I am on Pacific Time that was the first time. Don't mess with my award shows!

I tweeted out about an old flame of mine that I met at an Early November concert back in 2004.



and then The Early November retweeted it and I got 40 retweets and 80 favorites in a matter of minutes from concerned people that wanted to help me find Amy. Except in real life her name wasn't Amy. I think it was Rachel but Rachel was too many characters for the tweet so I changed it to Amy. And in real life I talked to her again...kinda. I gave her my number and she called me but I ignored it then never returned her voicemail because I'm a bad guy.

So I apologize to these people who were hoping I'd find her. Especially Jeff Kummer who is the drummer for Early November.







I'm sure as you all know, the biggest thing to happen to me was the video of my mom being scared by Frank Dog the Fake Dog going viral.



Some Background

I originally went to goodwill to buy Luke a mannequin. They had one that would be perfect, a six feet tall big dude but the lady at Goodwill refused to sell it to me. Which seemed like total bullshit to me at the time. And still does. You're Goodwill, I'm a person with money, give me the mannequin, I give you the money. They weren't even using it to display clothes. It was naked. But they didn't budge. I guess its for the best. Maybe the fake man would have scared my mom even more though.

I gave Luke the dog. He was like cool but no, cause this is a stuffed dog. It was soon after when he realized what a good present it was. Luke was the first person to scare mom. He put it in shotgun of the car, my mom got in the drivers seat, saw the dog and screamed. Then she had to get out cause she forgot something. When she got back in two seconds later she screamed even louder.

Luke told me this information and I got the GoPro out. And now the video was on aol.com msn.com buzzfeed.com hufffingtonpost.com yahoo.com dailymotion.com a ton of local news stations and some other places that I probably don't even know about.

Other Stuff

 Here's a video of me laughing at an old man who needs two canes to walk slower than a snail. Life sucks when you get old.





 And here's a video tour of my new place in Walnut Creek

Nick Proch vs The Scoop N Scootery

Here's a little story about a man who wanted to enjoy some Frozen Yogurt during his Sunday Movie but never go the chance to.











 So that was that. Just a 25 year old man trying to watch a movie and eat some froyo. Is it weird to only order one serving of ice cream to be delivered to yourself? Yes. Is it sad? possibly!




THEN COMES THE next day when Nick finds the company on Twitter. This is where the fun begins.






 At this point the conversation has spectators. Anxiously waiting for the answers.






Back to the exchange

At One Point Jake and I were writing Beer Diaries

A little over a year ago Jake and I decided to start Beer Diaries, because we are pathetic. Also because we are pathetic we quit after a month (mostly Jake though, I finish everything I start, whether it be good or bad)

Idea was to drink a different beer every day and do a little write up about the beer and your day.

Anyway I just found the old document on my computer and they made me laugh so here, why not. Here are the first three days of the Beer Diary. Was supposed to last a year but like I said we only did it for a month or so. Maybe if the three people that read this like it I will post the rest of em.

Got a text from my friend Jake today. He told me he had an idea. I told him to go on. He said never mind, it’s a bad idea. His idea was to drink a different beer every day for a year.
Five minutes later I was at the store tossing every beer they offered as a single can into a hand basket.
So today, October 6th 2013 marks day one of the Beer Diary. Wish me luck.

I've been home alone all day. Well, that’s not entirely true. Zimmer (my dog) is here. In the past couple months I’d say Zim has been on the other end of forty percent of my conversations. So there’s that.
Plan on spending all day plastered to the couch watching football, golf, and playoff baseball while reading the short stories of William Saroyan. Might throw a shower in there somewhere but I don’t want to overwhelm myself.
As far as the beer goes, today’s winner is UFO Unfiltered Pumpkin Ale. ‘Tis the season, I figured. The can doubles as a horrible weatherman, stating that it is partly cloudy and 38 degrees out when it is actually raining and 61 degrees. It’s okay though, I was always told ‘you can’t expect accurate weather reports from cans.’
I've never been a fan of pumpkin beers. Interestingly enough, that’s still very much the case. Drank the can in four big mouthfuls to get it over with. 


Jake

I have never been great with goal setting. The only goals I have ever had were to get a college degree and become a great father. I have the college degree and if I am a father I'm doing a terrible job. As of now that second part has yet to be decided but I'm confident one day I will achieve it. Meanwhile, as my 24th birthday approaches it's time to set some new goals! Run a marathon! Low carb diet! No. No my brain jumped instantly to drink a different beer every day for the next year. I figure it will be a good way to review some beers and keep a little personal diary going for the first time in my life. Ladies and gentleman welcome to my beer diary.

Today’s drink of choice is the summer shandy from Leinenkugel. Opening up a beer diary drinking something that’s debatably not a beer! I've always liked a good shandy, whether it was Leinenkugel or mixing a wheat beer with Mike's Hard Lemonade. A great summer drink to cap off what actually feels like the end of summer. Just got back from Arlington, Virginia, where we were celebrating a friend’s birthday. I got drunk three times in two days, vomited, ate terrible food, and most likely grossed out anyone who met me for the first time. During the nine-hour ride home; between questioning life and sweating out alcohol I had the best idea of my life and you're reading it right now.

Working from home today. Editing a video and watching the playoff baseball game. Day time baseball is probably one of the biggest perks that come with working from home. That and not having to shower or put on clothes, not having to listen to horrible stories, being able to masturbate in-between projects, not doing work when you don’t feel like it, and some others.

I made it until three o’clock before cracking open my beer. Steen Brugge’s Tripel. After drinking it I can speculate that it is definitely a beer. It smells, drinks, and tastes like a beer. Throw in some citrus I guess too. Steen Brugge!

                                                  
                              Jake

Today was Monday and the struggle was pretty real. Still recovering from the weekend plus being a man short at work was a rough combination. Luckily, my roommate and good friend, Ken likes to indulge on what we refer to as "fat boy Monday's," where the name gets the point across. This worked out well for me as on my pursuit of 365 beers in 365 days I'm sure I'd be able to find a non-familiar beer. We ended up going to Buffalo Wild Wings because apparently I have no imagination. But hey, it’s not a terrible atmosphere and there’s usually one or two cute waitresses that we can pretend would like us if we talked to them.

The beer on tap that caught my eye - because I'm easily entertained - was called Purple Haze by Abita. Basically the tap had a cool design and the title reminded me of good vibes thinking of Jimi Hendrix on the guitar. The beer itself was pretty good! It was light, which worked out because with the meal en route and the weekend behind that's what I was in the mood for. It was light but at the same time didn't taste like a cheap beer so… Hope my reviews get better than this! I broke up with my girlfriend of four years and this is part of my healing process.

I went into work for around an hour today. Wasn’t fun. The lady that works in the back room with me offered me all her recently dead husbands’ shoes. She said they were really nice. I said, ‘nah, not much of a dead shoe guy, but thank you.’
I got back to my house and had sincere plans to get some editing done. Then I realized I felt a little tired so I changed my plans. I drank my beer of the day then took a three hour nap. My ever going fight against metamorphosis!

I drank a Stella Artois, a pretty common beer. I’ve had it a bunch before and have always thought to myself while drinking it, hey this isn’t that bad I should order it sometime. But I never do because I don’t know how to pronounce Artois. As a general rule of thumb, don’t ask for things that you don’t know how to say.


                                           Jake

Today’s beer: Shipyard Pumpkinhead Ale. I was mad I caved so early to having the Pumpkinhead but then realized I only have 20 more days or so to drink it. Now I’m realizing that nobody cares about that last sentence. But it is a pretty good beer! You can definitely taste the pumpkin (no way!). I had three of them over the course of the night and that’s about the maximum one can have. That flavor gets old and the whole idea of only enjoying pumpkin things for one month a year is pretty ridiculous.

 The price of the beer was ideal, as my co-workers treated me to dinner for my birthday. My birthday is not today, it’s Friday, calm down my cult followers! Our waitress was a cute older (early 30’s?) lady named Lisa who had a great figure but looked at me like I’m 18 years old. I think it’s because I’m short, can’t really grow facial hair, and look like I’m 18 years old.
