No matter what you thought of the Couchathon you had to be blown away by our incredible first day. Not only are we well on our way to meeting our 24-hour goal - we’ve raised over $2700 at the time of this writing (5am).

We had a great spate of special guests here on the couch. Mark Forward brought some awful cookies, Dave Bedini and his kids read stories and played songs, Adam Growe played Cash Cab with his own money, Andrika Lawren did an amazing arts and crafts hour, Nikki Payne delivered one of the all time great profane rants, Jon Dore was mildly put out, Andre Arruda came to chill out, Trevor Boris and Debrah DiGiovanni participated in all kinds of midnight shennanigans, and then Pat Thornton just stayed on the couch for another three hours.

Just when it looked like the cavalcade of all-star talent had dried up - our own chat room came to the rescue with a 4am visit from three of our most hardcore followers to lead a rousing sing-along that was significantly more competent than our own attempt.

Now we’re heading into a brand new day all charged up - who knows what tomorrow holds?
