The competitive atmosphere at the Lampoon drives writers to produce good work.
Question: Why has the Lampoon created so many great writers?
Josh Lieb: The Lampoon . . . You know I . . . I don't . . . I think that obviously goes in ways . . . The writers it's creating right now, I think they're all good. It's . . . it's just a . . . Look you're at Harvard, so, you know, you've got sort of a pretty good pool to choose from. And it's got this nice building and a sort of sweet setup, so it becomes very attractive. And then it's got this history. So you know it became very easy to attract sort of talented writers. And then you know when you're there, you sort of wanna live up to the people that have been there before. I mean that said actually putting out the magazine are not really always that funny. But the . . . there is a competitive nature with the, you know, people on the magazine itself where you're always sort of trying to better each other and one-up each other. So you know it's all those rams butting their heads eventually makes you stronger.

In late July, Donald Trump met with representatives of Harvard’s student newspaper, The Harvard Crimson, for a photo op and a campaign endorsement at Trump Tower. There were two slight problems though: the students he met were not from The Crimson, and the endorsement was actually part of an elaborate prank between student publications.
The students who met The Donald were actually from Harvard Lampoon, a satirical magazine with a historical rivalry with The Crimson, who decided to rope Trump in in order to prank them both.
As part of the student rivalry, the two organizations have a long history of attempting to steal each other’s icon. The Crimson‘s piece is the wooden president’s chair, and for The Lampoon, it’s a metal Ibis bird that stands atop their building.
The Crimson editors arrived at their office one day in late June, and found that their desk had been stolen, having been broken out of the chains that kept it from their rivals. During that time, the chair was being moved by the “Poonsters” to New York, where they asked Trump to sit while he was receiving them.
Several weeks later, a fake website bearing The Crimson masthead went live, showing Trump at the reception and a rave review to match:
Donald J. Trump is known as a celebrity above all, and although some voters see his celebrity as an indication of style over substance, we would argue that this style is the very substance that elevates his candidacy above the rest of the GOP field. Trump’s unique brand of media ubiquity—whether on social media or primetime TV— lends him a highly valuable ability to both understand what Americans want and enact change to satisfy those needs.

REALLY THAT GOOD is a new kind of film-criticism series, built around the radical premise that just because "everyone knows" a movie is a classic doesn't mean it stops being worth a deeper look.
The newest movie in the VACATION franchise bombed with critics and fizzled with audiences, but it still managed to throw the pop-culture spotlight back onto the venerable comedy franchise of the 80s and 90s, welcoming a new appraisal of what many consider to be a comedy classic.
VACATION cemented Chevy Chase as a comedy superstar, inspired countless rip-offs and 3 direct sequels, but the film itself often gets lost in its own legacy: Was this early gagfest a legitimate landmark, or a disposable slapdash confection hyped above its means thanks to the VHS boom? Is it timeless or has it aged poorly? Hell, would we even still be talking about this franchise period if CHRISTMAS VACATION hadn't become an unironic holiday mainstay?
Is NATIONAL LAMPOON'S VACATION... Really That Good?

The Harvard Lampoon
The Harvard Lampoon is an undergraduate humor publication founded in 1876 by seven undergraduates at Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
Overview
The Harvard Lampoon publication was founded in 1876 by seven undergraduates at Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts who were inspired by popular magazines like Punch (1841) and Puck (1871). Without counting breaks during World War I and World War II, The Harvard Lampoon is the world's second longest continually published humor magazine (after Nebelspalter).
The organization also produces occasional humor books (the best known being the 1969 J.R.R. Tolkien parody Bored of the Rings) and parodies of national magazines such as Entertainment Weekly and Sports Illustrated. Much of the organization's capital is provided by the licensing of the "Lampoon" name to National Lampoon, begun by Harvard Lampoon graduates in 1970.
The Lampoon publishes five issues annually. In 2006, the Lampoon began regularly releasing content on their website, including pieces from the magazine and web-only content. In 2009, the Lampoon published a parody of Twilight called Nightlight, which is a New York Times bestseller. In February 2012, the Lampoon released a parody of The Hunger Games called The Hunger Pains. It is also a New York Times bestseller.

Harvard University
Harvard University is a private Ivy League research university in Cambridge, Massachusetts, established 1636, whose history, influence and wealth have made it one of the most prestigious universities in the world.
Established originally by the Massachusetts legislature and soon thereafter named for John Harvard (its first benefactor), Harvard is the United States' oldest institution of higher learning, and the Harvard Corporation (formally, the President and Fellows of Harvard College) is its first chartered corporation. Although never formally affiliated with any denomination, the early College primarily trained Congregationalist and Unitarian clergy. Its curriculum and student body were gradually secularized during the 18th century, and by the 19th century Harvard had emerged as the central cultural establishment among Boston elites. Following the American Civil War, President Charles W. Eliot's long tenure (1869–1909) transformed the college and affiliated professional schools into a modern research university; Harvard was a founding member of the Association of American Universities in 1900.James Bryant Conant led the university through the Great Depression and World War II and began to reform the curriculum and liberalize admissions after the war. The undergraduate college became coeducational after its 1977 merger with Radcliffe College.

The Harvard Crimson
The Harvard Crimson, the daily student newspaper of Harvard University, was founded in 1873. It is the only daily newspaper in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and is run entirely by Harvard College undergraduates. Many Crimson alumni have gone on to careers in journalism, and some have won Pulitzer Prizes.
About The Crimson
Any student who volunteers and completes a series of requirements known as the "comp" is elected an editor of the newspaper. Thus, all staff members of The Crimson—including writers, business staff, photographers, and graphic designers—are technically "editors". (If an editor makes news, he or she is referred to in the paper's news article as a "Crimson editor", which, though important for transparency, also leads to characterizations such as "former President John F. Kennedy '40, who was also a Crimson editor, ended the Cuban Missile Crisis.") Editorial and financial decisions rest in a board of executives, collectively called a "guard", who are chosen for one-year terms each November by the outgoing guard. This process is referred to as the "turkey shoot" or the "shoot". The unsigned opinions of "The Crimson Staff" are decided at tri-weekly meetings that are open to any Crimson editor (except those editors who plan to write or edit a news story on the same topic in the future).

In late July, Donald Trump met with representatives of Harvard’s student newspaper, The Harvard Crimson, for a photo op and a campaign endorsement at Trump Tower. There were two slight problems though: the students he met were not from The Crimson, and the endorsement was actually part of an elaborate prank between student publications.
The students who met The Donald were actually from Harvard Lampoon, a satirical magazine with a historical rivalry with The Crimson, who decided to rope Trump in in order to prank them both.
As part of the student rivalry, the two organizations have a long history of attempting to steal each other’s icon. The Crimson‘s piece is the wooden president’s chair, and for The Lampoon, it’s a metal Ibis bird that stands atop their building.
The Crimson editors arrived at their office one day in late June, and found that their desk had been stolen, having been broken out of the chains that kept it from their rivals. During that time, the chair was being moved by the “Poonsters” to New York, where they asked Trump to sit while he was receiving them.
Several weeks later, a fake website bearing The Crimson masthead went live, showing Trump at the reception and a rave review to match:
Donald J. Trump is known as a celebrity above all, and although some voters see his celebrity as an indication of style over substance, we would argue that this style is the very substance that elevates his candidacy above the rest of the GOP field. Trump’s unique brand of media ubiquity—whether on social media or primetime TV— lends him a highly valuable ability to both understand what Americans want and enact change to satisfy those needs.

REALLY THAT GOOD is a new kind of film-criticism series, built around the radical premise that just because "everyone knows" a movie is a classic doesn't mean it stops being worth a deeper look.
The newest movie in the VACATION franchise bombed with critics and fizzled with audiences, but it still managed to throw the pop-culture spotlight back onto the venerable comedy franchise of the 80s and 90s, welcoming a new appraisal of what many consider to be a comedy classic.
VACATION cemented Chevy Chase as a comedy superstar, inspired countless rip-offs and 3 direct sequels, but the film itself often gets lost in its own legacy: Was this early gagfest a legitimate landmark, or a disposable slapdash confection hyped above its means thanks to the VHS boom? Is it timeless or has it aged poorly? Hell, would we even still be talking about this franchise period if CHRISTMAS VACATION hadn't become an unironic holiday mainstay?
Is NATIONAL LAMPOON'S VACATION... Really That Good?
