“The very best wingman you know: filled with enthusiasm for a cornucopia of nerdy fandoms, a proliferator of resonantly poetic discourse on delightfully trivial matters, and just generally a purveyor of excellent party tricks. You don’t mind introducing Schnakenberg to your friends; he always makes you look good.”

—Megan Volpert, Pop Matters 

​

“Schnakenberg is the clown prince of American letters!”

—Jack Canfora, playwright, author of Fellow Travelers

“Schnakenberg looks exactly like the hipster douche his movie tastes suggest he is.”

“Looks like the spawn of Gary Sinise and a Beetlejuice-era Michael Keaton.”
