#235 | Praise Effort Over Skill | Founder of The Onion Scott Dikkers
Mark sits down, live in the new Elevating Beyond Podcast Studio, with the guy who founded America's largest comedy/media publication, literally changing the game, publishing THE ONION on the internet, which took the WORLD by storm, Scott Dikkers! Scott shares the story behind the story of how he got to know Weird Al, writing for Saturday Night live, being an entrepreneur, how to delegate creativity, growing your business at every level, and even parenting. At the core of this show, Mark & Scott get in-depth about why EFFORT is the key to Creativity, Skill, and Greatness at Every Level! Connect with Scott Dikkers here, check out his NY Times best selling books, his new podcast, and so much more here https://scottdikkers.com Scott Dikkers founded the world's first humor website, TheOnion.com, in 1996. A few years earlier he helped found the original Onion newspaper. He's served as The Onion's owner and editor-in-chief, on and off, for much of the last quarter century. Scott co-wrote and edited The Onion's first original book, Our Dumb Century, a look at recent history through front pages of The Onion. It's sold over a million copies, debuting as a #1 New York Times and #1 Amazon bestseller. He also co-wrote and edited The Onion's second original book, Our Dumb World, a world atlas parody, which also debuted on the New York Times bestseller list. In the mid-2000's, Scott headed up the creation of "The Onion News Network" web series, serving as a director and executive producer. The series gave rise to many viral videos and a TV series on IFC. The web shorts won a Peabody Award in 2008. Scott led The Onion's rise from small, unknown college humor publication to internationally respected comedy brand. He gathered a talented team of writers and editors over the years, working with them to develop The Onion's culture of creative freedom and brutal honesty, its distinct comic voice, and its reliable process for generating award-winning satire, day after day. This unique process is spelled out in Scott's books, How to Write Funny, and the second in the series, How to Write Funnier, which are the basis of the Writing with The Onion program he created and teaches at The Second City Training Center in Chicago. Scott offers other courses and free resources for comedy writers on the How to Write Funny website. His work with The Onion, its website and other ancillary products, earned Scott the #43 spot on Time magazine's list of the Top 50 "Cyber Elite" alongside such iconic figures as Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, and George Lucas. Scott began his career in the entertainment business with his self-syndicated comic strip, Jim's Journal. The popular college cartoon, comprised of little more than stick figures, spawned a self-published book collection that became a national bestseller. Rolling Stone magazine ranked "Jim" one of America's top ten favorite writers in 1992. Scott continues to draw and animate cartoons under the banner of the Dikkers Cartoon Company. In addition to his other work, Scott is an accomplished voice actor who's performed in many national commercials, video games and animated cartoons, including Saturday Night Live's "TV Funhouse." He's also written and directed several award-winning short films, and two feature films, Spaceman, and Bad Meat.
