SAN FRANCISCO, CA

CandyJar, the leading US-based microdrama platform operated by Inkitt, is teaming up with The All-American Rejects, fresh off the release of Sandbox, their first album in over 14 years, to launch SuperFan, an original series that marks the first microdrama ever made by a band. All 31 bite-sized episodes are available exclusively on CandyJar at launch. Fans can watch in free batches or subscribe to binge the full series immediately.

 

 
The timing for this partnership couldn’t be more electric. The CandyJar exclusive follows an obsessed fan who kidnaps the band and holds them hostage until they release new music, including singles from Sandbox. Equal parts unhinged comedy and genuine thriller, with a vampire subplot that needs to be seen to be believed, SuperFan is guaranteed to keep audiences hooked.

“SuperFan started as a crazy idea and somehow got crazier from there,” said Tyson Ritter of The All-American Rejects. “We are all about being disruptive and CandyJar understands exactly what we are trying to do. Being the first musicians in this space makes me feel like the monkey in orbit… next stop, the moon!”

Produced by Natalie Marciano and Poster Child Pictures, SuperFan brought together creatives from across film, television, music, fashion, unscripted entertainment, and the vertical space. Poster Child brought together veteran television producer Chris Collins, pioneering vertical director Michael Reich, unscripted producer John Salcido, actress Anna Lore, and a special cameo appearance by filmmaker Catherine Hardwicke, alongside creators and influencers from the digital space. Producer and actor Eric Guilmette also joined, both in front of and behind the camera, as the Rejects’ hilariously amoral manager Josh, bringing his extensive experience in the vertical series world to the project.

CandyJar is also excited to announce that they will be collaborating with the band to release a second, romance-forward original movie that directly speaks to the brand’s core audience.

“SuperFan is a unique and unexpected addition to CandyJar’s romance catalogue, but we’re confident it will deeply resonate with our audience. While the content sits within the comedy and thriller genres, there is a strong overlap between our users and The All-American Rejects fanbase and frankly, women love Tyson Ritter,” said Ali Albazaz, CEO and founder of CandyJar’s parent company, Inkitt. “The All-American Rejects are iconic, and we’re excited to continue this partnership with a second, romance series that we know our users will absolutely devour.”

With over 10 million app downloads and more than 1 billion episodes streamed to date, CandyJar has built a massive microdrama audience in the U.S. and beyond, and SuperFan is its latest, most unexpected addition yet.

SuperFan is streaming exclusively on CandyJar starting Friday, May 22. Download the app on iOS, Android or visit candyjar.com.

About The All-American Rejects

Beginning a renaissance in the 2020s, the band managed to quietly sell out venues across the country on their first proper headline tour in over a decade: 2023’s Wet Hot All-American Summer Tour. They magnetically attracted tens of thousands of fans to see them at free guerilla pop-up concerts at USC, in a cornfield, and outside of a house in Nashville during 2025’s wildly popular “House Party Tour”.

Surveying their influence, Variety put it best, “They won over young listeners with sticky songs about broken hearts and adolescent lust that have resonated across the decades.” For as much as their bulletproof back catalog is attractive to generations of fans, it’s the uncontainable energy of the collective that inspires all listeners to stick around.

Now and forever, The All-American Rejects are proudly “a band of the people,” cutting through the bullshit, silencing the noise, and meeting audiences exactly where they are with music that they need. This spirit surges through their fifth album, first INDEPENDENT release, and first full-length LP in 14 years, Sandbox. It’s the sound of rock’s unsung antiheroes doing what they do best, pulling no punches, and delivering sticky, sharp, and sometimes sweet anthems.

Lincoln, NE

Families caring for aging loved ones often reach a point where daytime help alone no longer feels like enough. For adult children balancing careers, children, and caregiving responsibilities, overnight support can provide added reassurance while helping parents remain comfortable at home. Comfort Keepers of Lincoln is sharing information about available 24-hour care options for seniors who need assistance during both daytime and nighttime hours.

Many adults in the “sandwich generation” are searching for dependable ways to support an elderly parent while managing their own busy households. Concerns about falls, nighttime wandering, interrupted sleep, or loneliness after dark frequently lead families to explore around-the-clock home care services. Comfort Keepers of Lincoln works with families seeking consistent support and familiar caregivers to assist throughout the day and overnight.

Can You Recommend 24-Hour Care Options in Lincoln, Nebraska, for an Elderly Parent Who Needs Overnight Support?

Comfort Keepers of Lincoln offers care plans that may include overnight companionship, personal care assistance, meal assistance, mobility support, safety monitoring, and meaningful engagement during the evening and early morning hours. Around-the-clock care can also provide family members with peace of mind when they cannot be present overnight.

This type of support is especially valuable for adult children who live nearby but cannot stay with a parent every evening. Overnight caregivers can assist seniors who wake frequently, need reminders and reassurance during the night, or simply benefit from having someone close by.

Support Designed for Families Managing Multiple Responsibilities

For many families, caregiving responsibilities arrive during an already demanding stage of life.

“Our goal is to help families feel supported during a challenging season of life. When adult children are balancing work, parenting, and concern for an aging parent, having dependable overnight care can bring comfort and reassurance to everyone involved,” said Calli Smith, owner of Comfort Keepers of Lincoln.

Local Care with a Personal Approach

Families researching home care services often look for responsiveness, professionalism, and genuine connection. Comfort Keepers of Lincoln offers consultations that help families discuss schedules, household routines, and daily support needs. The office is also known for answering calls directly rather than relying solely on automated systems, allowing families to speak with someone when questions arise.

In addition to providing home care assistance, Comfort Keepers has earned recognition as a Great Place to Work Certified™ organization, reflecting its commitment to caregivers and workplace culture. 

Comfort Keepers also focuses on caregiver education and maintaining strong relationships within the local community. Families seeking care for an aging parent often value familiarity, accountability, and communication when selecting ongoing support services.

Learning More About Overnight and 24-Hour Care

As more families explore ways to help aging loved ones remain at home safely and comfortably, conversations around overnight and 24-hour care continue to grow. Having dependable support during nighttime hours may help families feel more confident while allowing seniors to continue living in a familiar environment.

Irvine, CA

With just one week to go before California’s critical June 2, 2026 primary one Congressional candidate is already declaring a victory of sorts– over the scourge of unwanted robocalls.

“When I announced my Congressional bid I promised Americans across the nation I would bring an end to the robocall scourge.” Candidate Eric Troutman says. “I am proud to say we’ve already helped stop over 5 billion of these calls– and I’m hoping the voters here in Orange County will give me a chance to finish the job.” 

Chart showing immediate drop in calls following Troutman’s announcement. 

Known as the “Troutman Effect” in campaign circles, the YouMail Robocall Index show a plain drop in robocalls received by Americans following Troutman’s announcement he was joining the race in October, 2025.

“There’s just no other way to explain this drop.” Troutman’s campaign says. “Troutman enters the case and instantly the trend of rising robocalls reverse– the bad guys fear Troutman because they know he will put them out of business once and for all.”

The data is certainly there to support the theory.

Troutman officially announced his run in October, 2025 and YouMail’s Robocall Index has shown a YoY reduction in robocalls every month since:

Per YouMail’s Robocall Index, consumers have received far FEWER robocalls every month since Troutman announced his bid:

October, 2025: 1,170,000,000 fewer calls than year before

November, 2025: 867,000,000 fewer calls than year before

December, 2025: 248,000,000 fewer calls than year before

January, 2026: 856,000,000 fewer calls than year before

February, 2026: 621,000,000 fewer calls than year before

March, 2026: 598,000,000 fewer calls than year before

April, 2026: 746,000,000 fewer calls than the year before.

That’s 5.1BB fewer calls Americans have endured since Troutman launched his anti-robocall Congressional campaign. An amazing accomplishment to the extent the “Troutman Effect” is really behind the drop in calls.

“Anyone claiming this is a coincidence is just uninformed.” Troutman says. “Sure maybe if calls were down for a month or two but they dropped like a rock and they have stayed down– these guys do not want me in office and they’re playing nice to see what happens.” 

Troutman is one of the best known telecom lawyers in the world and has dedicated his time and personal fortune to stopping the robocall epidemic. 

“I’ve spent hundreds of thousands of dollars of my own money travelling the nation trying to stop the robocall epidemic.” Troutman said. “I didn’t wait for the government to do it form me. I saw a problem and I went out there and tried to solve it. As a result I’ve stopped more robocalls than any human being alive. But now I am trying to finish the job.”

California’s primary for Congressional District 47 is June 2, 2026.
