We moved our previously announced February event at The Crescent Moon Alehouse to April to accommodate the kick-off to AIGA Nebraska’s 22nd year of events and programs. As a special February 36 Pints at Krug Park, the first 36 Pints will be provided by AIGA Nebraska and 36 Point. Join us for 36 pints + AIGA Social in 3 weeks. After that, we have the Eleven19 open house, and then… to The Moon!

Join the 36 Point Staff for 36 Pints this Thursday
January 13th, 2013 | by Donovan Beery
I realized, hey, since I wrote about how great The Blatt was for Neenah Paper last month, let’s start the year of 36 Pints there.
We’ll follow up with a February April event at The Crescent Moon, and then go off schedule once again for an Eleven19 open house!
So, if you’re a creative, or want to be a creative, in the Omaha area, stop by, we’d love to see you at 36 Pints.

Our Picks from Season 5 of The Reflex Blue Show
December 6th, 2012 | by Donovan Beery
With Season 6 of The Reflex Blue Show launching earlier this week with Paula Scher, we decided it was a great time to go back and remember what we did over Season 5. I forgot how much fun we had recording some of these, starting with drinking old sodas from the fridge with Ben and Steve – right off the block from the first episode. The Day Two recap from the HOW Conference was probably the closest we’ve come to our original vision for the podcast, and we even had a drop by from a Core77 road trip swing by the office to visit. Over all though, below are the shows Ben and I picked as our personal favorites. These, and the 36 Point favorites from other past seasons, will be archived under the “podcast” link at the top of each page. Enjoy, and I hope you enjoy what we have planned for Season 6! Thanks for listening.
Donovan’s Pick: Episode 13 (#95) |
||
| Going through the list of the shows we did last year brought back some great memories, but anytime we spend almost the entire show talking about toys and The Simpsons – it’s hard to beat that. | ||

Ben’s Pick: Episode 16 (#98) |

| I’m not sure if everyone that works at Disney has an intensely childlike imagination and an innate storytelling ability – but this guy sure does. Our conversation with Disney creative director Chris Chapman is just as memorable as it is inspiring. | ||

We may have wrapped up The Reflex Blue Show for the year with episode #100 earlier this week, but that doesn’t mean we’re wrapping up our other ventures over at 36 Point.
We’re still lining up @11:19 lunch events with the area’s great creatives (fee free to contact us to participate); ace reporter Ben Lueders will be bringing a few recap podcasts from Design Camp® 2012 next month; and we have a full slate of 36 Pints to finish off the year!
I personally chose this week’s location, and moved the start time back an hour. Why? It’s the day before my birthday, and this is my official birthday celebration – so stop by!
Tom Nemitz and Ben Lueders picked the locations to round out 2012. And because the holidays always causes scheduling issues, we moved the November and December events to the 2nd Thursday instead of our regular 3rd Thursday spot. Hope to see you Omaha area creatives at 36 Pints!
