Like a Boss and Phoenix

from Incredibad by The Lonely Island. The following video for "Like A Boss (ft. Seth Rogen)" was shown on SNL this past weekend. Enjoy.



P.S. Phoenix was their musical act that episode. Here's "Rally" from their album It's Never Been Like That (2006).

The Vacant Lot

The Vacant Lot was a short-lived comedy sketch show that ran in 1993 and 1994. This sketch, The Head, is the only one I can remember watching when it actually ran on Comedy Central back then which is probably a sign of how badly it disturbed me as a child.

The Late Great Sam Kinison

Sam Kinison was one of the great ones that died relatively young. I personally remember him as my favorite part of Rodney Dangerfield's, the MC here, Back to School.

Dylan Moran on the subject of Germany

his third major tour, Like, Totally (the entire show can easily be found on YouTube).

George Carlin on the change of American censorship

I was looking for clips of Flip Wilson when I stumbled upon this excerpt from his visit to the the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. After a brief introduction George Carlin makes his way out onto the guests' couch. I find the conversation, and the show's sponsor seen at the end of the clip, to be an interesting look at American values.

I'm on a Boat

There aren't words to describe this. Well, yes there are. It's exactly what you would think of T Pain rapping about being on a boat.

Bill Hicks

I hope you all are familiar with the comedic stylings of Bill Hicks. In David Letterman's apology to Hicks' mother, Letterman mentions how Hicks is often considered ahead of his time. Hicks was a dark horse that hopefully will be remembered as the saving grace of stand up comedy in the 90s. Here is the routine that was censored fifteen years ago (skip ahead about two minutes to just watch the comedy).

Patton Oswalt, Alela DIane, and Blitzen Trapper

So Patton Oswalt is going to be at the 40 Watt here in Athens, GA this Friday the 6th. Obviously Patton is no stranger to Athens (I enter the video below as my first piece of evidence). I've got my ticket. Do you?



And coming Wednesday March 4 is Bltizen Trapper with Alela Diane. Honestly I'm more excited about Alela Diane than Blitzen Trapper, but Blitzen Trapper is pretty good too. "Furr," the track Yousuf posted a while back is an obvious stand out by them. As far as Alela Diane goes, here's her wonderful "Dry Grass and Shadows" as well as a video for "White As Diamonds," her most recent single.
