What is Snide Studios?

Snide Studios is where outlaw comedy meets artistic conviction — a sandbox, stage, and sanctuary for the weird, the wonderful, and the wild-hearted. We’re headquartered in the backroads of southwest Virginia, broadcasting our own blend of raw comedy, multimedia storytelling, and unfiltered expression. Around here, we’re not just producing content — we’re building a subculture, one laugh, monologue, meltdown, and mic check at a time. We ain’t just trying to entertain the locals — we’re building a community-driven creative engine that elevates the region’s raw talent while sending signals to the rest of the world that Appalachia's still got bite.

Snide Studios was founded by Cornelius Edward Snider — filmmaker, writer, obsessive entertainment archivist, and unapologetic disruptor — Snide Studios exists to challenge what media can be. What started as a rough basement collective has grown into a multiverse of shows, skits, podcasts, prose, games, and public-access satire. But we’re still proudly duct-taped together. Still scrappy. Still Snide.

We make art for the fringe-dwellers, the kitchen-table philosophers, the mystics with mullets and the cynics with heart.
