ChrisBrogan.com runs on the Thesis Theme for WordPress

Thesis WordPress theme

Thesis is the search engine optimized WordPress theme of choice for serious online publishers. If you’re a blogger who doesn’t understand a lot of PHP, Thesis will give a ton of functionality without having to alter any code. For the advanced, Thesis has incredible customization possibilities via Thesis hooks.

With so many design options, you can use the template over and over and never have it look like the same site. The theme is robust and flexible enough not only to accommodate a site like ChrisBrogan.com, but also to enable the site to run far more efficiently than it ever has before.

  • Seems like the "Vader-ness" is toned down in this one. Don't let Chad stop being "Vader." That's what makes this whole series work.

    I have some problems with an UGG delivery which is stuck at the custom and I need the name of the shipping company, at least. Best if you could give me the tracking id (number) since your website is down and I cannot retrieve this info by myself. Please contact me at llussan@yahoo.it so I can give you the order number and you can give me this info.
    Thanks!
  • Thanks for the smile to begin my day. Actually watched the whole thing without slipping in an email or tweet! Well done from every angle.
  • gerardmclean
    Isn't it Cali Lewis, not Kali Lewis? (watch the really fast running credits) Or maybe it should have been Kris Borgan and Guy Cawasaki :-)

    Rule #1 ALWAYS GET THE NAME CORRECT.. Korrect? You cnow what I mean.
  • nickshields
    Chad Has a Break, that was truely funny. Nice work.
  • Thank you for agreeing to do this Chris. You just might have an acting career ahead of you after you get done being a social media rock star, best selling author and world renowned speaker =p.

    Dave and I are both huge Chad Vader fans and have been talking about this video for months. When they agreed to do it, we were like two little kids.

    Then we saw the video and we had to wonder is this just funny to us because its our show?

    For those of you who don't know who Blame Society Productions (aka Matt Sloan and Aaron Yonda, aka Chad Vader) are, they are video podcast and YouTube mega stars. Their debut episode of Chad Vader Day Shift Manager has more than 9 million views on YouTube!

    Hopefully this little video has helped them gain some more fans and more recognition that they deserve. It has been a tremendous success for us.
  • Chris,

    I enjoyed the video. I look forward to seeing you at BlogWorld.
  • Cute vid.....Ultimately it's ALL on us. Others can provide help but it's the self-starters who get things done. Can't believe she turned down Vader. I find her lack of faith disturbing.
  • Everyone needs a little comic relief once in a while! I had seen Chad Vader's name on the BlogWorld speaker list but wasn't familiar with him until now. Had to check out more of his videos on YouTube. Loving it!

    Can't wait to see you and Chad in Vegas!! (I am pretty stoked to be going to Blogworld...this will be my 1st live blogging convention! (Gotta thank John Chow for picking me in his free pass contest!! Yay!)
  • I like what you said.
  • Hilarious. Entertainment to start the day.
  • Absolutely hilarious. Interesting way to promote Blog World Expo.

    I am a Star Wars fan and had to watch them all. Too funny!
  • That video is hilarious! I love it. Wish I could be in Vegas with you guys. Enjoy!
  • You have started my day out in the best way -- with a full, out loud, laugh! This was hilarious.
  • thank you for the introduction to Chad Vader! Must... find... blog... (you gave no link!)

    So for those like me who were unaware of this important dark presense in the force: http://www.blamesociety.net/chadvader/index.php :)
  • Hehe... I had no idea that Chad was still kicking around.

    Great to see two of my favorite bloggers (Chris and Cali) in one place. And now I feel like I have to go out and figure out who Guy Kawasaki is.
  • I wonder how they made the Darth Vader voice ...
  • eniac
    Awesomeness is the word :)
  • Damn you Brogan!

    Now there's another hilarious YouTube character whose episodes I must follow.

    Hilarious video :-)
  • thomsinger
    I find most things corny. This was well done and kept my attention. And I appreciate he never told you that he was your father!
  • I'm missing a point here, I'm sure. Apart from the mention of Blog World and that "Chad Vader" will be appearing, it doesn't really make me want to go to Blog World. No details about what I'd learn; why I should go; how it would help me move my blog forward. Isn't that the reason for promos?

    Maybe it's just too early in the a.m....
  • I guess I kind of missed it too. I saw all these super fantastic people who usually are so helpful being unhelpful...

    But I do want to see episode 9! Yay for Blogworld, see you there!
  • I don't know about you, but sometimes I get tired of being "sold"...sometimes it's nice to just smile and this video made me do that.

    This video (and the fact that Chris posted it) also made me realize that along with all the education we'll be getting at Blogworld, it will be a chance to get to see the experts cutting loose and sharing their personality with us. No snoozefest here!!
  • Joke: Ficticious Characters
    Just before Christmas, an honest politician, a generous lawyer and Santa Claus were riding in the elevator of a very posh hotel. Just before the doors opened they all noticed a $20 bill lying on the floor. Which one picked it up? Santa of course, because the other two don't exist!

  • Nice one.
    really enjoyed it on my break time.
    Now it's back to work.
  • I am not even a Star Wars fan but that is totally funny!
