About Sam Colt
Welcome to This Is a Newsletter!
Short essays and observational humor about pop culture, current events, and urban millennial life.
I’m a recovering advertising copywriter and former academic. For the past decade, I have chased a master’s degree and writing gigs, and I lived in Los Angeles, Boston, and Chicago, before currently residing in Toronto. I have racked up many observations about the banalities of urban life. And after countless hours upon years of passive internet addiction, I also developed an irrational love of memes and view them as a perfect capsule of pop culture and the current moment.
