You can’t teach funny, but UCB and Second City really had millennials convinced for a second. @dennismhogan.bsky.social looks back on improv’s heady heyday, wondering what, if anything, the comedy schools could teach:

In the time between David Morales’s first surprise victory in 2020 and his unprecedented upset this month, a lot has changed in Providence. His win was, in no small part, the result of six years of movement building.

The sweep by democratic socialist David Morales and other progressive primary candidates in Providence is a testament to years of organizing and coalition-building in the Ocean State.

A really in-depth look at what it took to win from @dennismhogan.bsky.social in @dissentmag.bsky.social; struck by how similar his experiences with Smiley's campaign were to mine; message-testing text polls, unanswered texts.

When it came to personal voter outreach, Smiley again fell short. I received dozens of texts and countless mailers from the Smiley campaign, but never made contact with a single real person. My replies to texts asking follow-up questions were ignored, and, truth be told, I don’t think anyone was monitoring them. Smiley spent more than $2 million on the campaign (more than five times what Morales did), but he invested it primarily in impersonal broadcast messaging.

In @dissentmag.bsky.social, I look at years of patient organizing around labor and housing that reshaped politics in Providence, feeding into the campaigns that lifted @davidmoralespvd.bsky.social and council allies like Miguel Youngs to victory last week. dissentmagazine.org/online_artic...

Improv’s heyday is long over. But for better or for worse, the form is hanging on, even in our self-conscious, cringe-averse era. In our new issue, @dennismhogan.bsky.social explains what keeps bringing people back to the black box.

"it is worth remembering that in the face of a shredded social fabric, movements are made by people who have hope, sustain themselves on solidarity, and mobilize in the service not only of building political power, but of delivering material change to those who need it."

In @thebaffler.com, I face the fact that I’m just another elder millennial with a background in improv comedy. Also asked & answered: Why was everyone in the 2010s doing improv? When did they stop? What’s the scene like now? And what the hell is a Harold anyway? thebaffler.com/salvos/no-bu...

This will work differently in different places. The end result, as @dennismhogan.bsky.social has argued, will be a two-tier education system where students at elites will still get to read books (though taught mostly by non-TT faculty) while the masses get AI hedgehogreview.com/issues/the-f...

Faculty sense that AI could make old-fashioned teaching and learning much more difficult to achieve, if not obsolete.

Improv is incurably cringe. Maybe that’s a good thing. @dennismhogan.bsky.social charts the rise and fall of the most millennial of art forms.

This fall, alongside @gavjacobson.bsky.social and @equatormag.bsky.social, I will be moderating a reading group on Mike Davis's Late Victorian Holocausts, which uncovers the role imperialism played in the famines that followed 19th-century El Niño-related droughts. www.equator.org/events/late-...

Please look through our full program on the @equatormag.bsky.social website. If you enjoyed the Jameson Reading Group I'd love to have you back. And if you weren't able to join us then (or you've been meaning to get around to Davis's timely book), here's your chance. Pay-what-you-can, open to all.

Our format will be very similar to the 2024-2025 @versobooks.bsky.social Jameson reading group, with short talks from invited guests, time for questions and answers, and small group conversation. We'll also be facilitating local meetups for self-organizing participants who want to go deeper!

Dennis Hogan @dennismhogan.bsky.social · 10/08/2026

We'll examine Davis's book as a work of historical scholarship and think about what it means for us now as we live through another 'super" El Niño. We'll have climate experts, historians, scholars of the Global South, Marxists, and students and translators of Davis to help us make sense of it all .
