CoreCon 2025

Before the memes, merchandise, and millions of views, there was just a 12-year-old kid with a camcorder and a dream. Join featured guest Dane Boedigheimer (creator of Annoying Orange) for a behind-the-scenes look at the wild journey from making silly videos at home to creating one of the most iconic internet series of all time. Hear never-before-told stories, early footage, viral video lessons, and how a talking orange became a pop culture phenomenon. Whether you're a longtime fan or just curious about the internet's weirdest fruit, this panel peels back the curtain in a fun, nostalgic, and inspiring way.
