The Mortified Shoebox Show is a comic excavation of the strange and extraordinary things we created as kids-- letters, lyrics, poems, journals, lame rap songs, home movies and more. The debut video series from your BFFs at Mortified , each weekly episode peeks inside our private histories to offer intimate, irreverent portraits of our collective youth. With a mix of concert clips, animated shorts, interviews and odd archival media, the series offers a snapshot of human history at its most hilarious and harrowing. Stayed tuned.
