He has recently been rising in youtube fame for his miniseries ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VzE4Mhn7pgI The Last Scene]'', ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nvz5-ZkKIBc New Prime]'', and soon to be ''[http://www.indiegogo.com/poprocket Pop Rocket]''.

* [[Non Sequitur]]: Inevitably, given Olan’s status as a [[Cloudcuckoolander]], this crops up countless times in all of his works.

* [[Cerebus Syndrome]]: Both ''The Last Scene'' and ''New Prime'' start off as a short, nonsensical dialogue in minimalist settings. By the end ''New Prime'' actually somewhat serious, has [[Character Development]], and [[Plot Twist|Plot Twists]]. It never loses its humor, though.
