Slackjaw readers and patrons of comedy, my name is Adam Dietz and I am the editor of Slackjaw’s thrice-monthly newsletter Yapjaw. Each month, I will showcase the best and brightest humor on Slackjaw in addition to some other cool stuff from equally cool spots.

As some of you may know, Slackjaw is taking a summer break from June 5th to the end of August. That, in turn, means that Yapjaw will also be on hiatus. This works out well as your beloved editor is getting married in early July and then honeymooning later in the month. Rest assured that Slackjaw and Yapjaw will be back in full force come September. I’ll be excited to share all of the new marriage insights that I’ll undoubtedly have with all of you.

On this week’s edition of Yapjaw, we’re excising the “great work from other great places” section to focus exclusively on some of the great shit on Slackjaw these past few months.
