Longtime AVC regular Kevin Marshall launched a Kickstarter a week or so ago. He’s raising funds to support the launch of two playing card games he created called Fubnub and Bad, Bad, Turtle.

I’ve embedded the video below for web readers. Email readers can click this link and watch it.

As we get to that time of the year when we look back and take measure of 2020, it will be one for the ages, and not in a good way.

I saw this photo book project on Kickstarter today and thought “it would be good to have this book to remember the early spring in NYC.” So I backed it.

Photos like this really take your breath away, particularly if you’ve been a NYer for a long time, like we have.

Email readers can click here and watch the video. I’ve embedded it below for web readers.

I backed this project a few weeks ago and noticed that it is almost to its goal with a week to go.

Shuggie’s is a restaurant that makes pizza out of food waste. Trash Pie. You got to love that. “Helping the planet can be super tasty.”

Email readers can watch the video and back the project here. I am embedding the video below for web readers.

I saw this project as I was browsing Kickstarter this morning and I watched the video and thought “I need to get one of those.”

If you would like to display a favorite photograph in holograph form you can back this project and get one for yourself here.

I’ve been biking several times a week in NYC this fall and every mask I’ve worn has caused me problems with fogging my glasses and making it harder to breath. I’ve tried a bunch of different masks and nothing works great.

So when I saw this project to make something better for working out on Kickstarter, I backed it right away.

I was on a zoom board meeting in early July and one of the board members started whipping out cards instead of interrupting. I captured the moment because I thought it was awesome.

Since then, I have wanted my own set of zoom meeting cards, but never took the initiative to make them.

So when I saw this Kickstarter project, I backed it immediately and went for the reward (which I rarely do) of the complete set of cards.

Email readers should click on this link and watch the video. I think you will want to get some cards too.

AVC regular Charlie Crystle told me that his neighbors are doing a fun Kickstarter. So I went and watched the video (here for email readers):

The video is only 30 seconds and it sold me instantly. I backed it and I bet you will too if you like to drink beer with friends.

It’s a beer opener and a game all in one. It reminds me of what our family does with the chicken bone. So much fun.

I’ve always been a fan of music in the shower. So when a long time AVC reader sent me a link to his Kickstarter project, Shower Power, I immediately backed it.

If you are into music in the shower like I am, you might want to check it out and support it too.

This project has a bunch of things that interest/excite me:

1/ Entrepreneurs committing to building new things in NYC during the pandemic

2/ Young chefs going out on their own

3/ Brooklyn

4/ Jelly donuts

I backed this project just now and took the jelly donuts reward because how could I resist?

The video is great and the project has one more day and is about 10% away from its goal. Check it out. You might like to back it too.
