- Sarah Silverman and "Superbad" star Michael Cera launched a YouTube comedy channel, Jash — which stands for "Just Attitude So Hey" — at SXSW. Says Silverman of the channel: "We each have pages within Jash and we each can curate those pages. This is what we think is funny. It may not be your cup of tea, but there’s no testing involved, there’s no second-guessing of what a 14-year-old boy would like. It’s just a place to do stuff and fail or not fail."
