Gimme Some Money
The streaming event this week is a fundraiser, perhaps to unseat Johnny Rotten.
Derek Smalls is on record as being “not really into politics”, but apparently the worm has turned.
As long as I get more of Nigel’s compelling theories.
Spitting Image Is Still Around
And still pretty funny.
It’s Back
As of October 4, we have five new episodes of Genndy Tartakovsky’s (Dexter’s Laboratory, Samurai Jack, Star Wars: Clone Wars) Primal. On HBO Max.
Also, fuck Monday.
I Respect His Fandom
This is the proper time to listed to Mike Nicolai's fabulous song about Van Halen: https://t.co/pwV4czrWk1

Confession: I never had a Van Halen phase.
This is weird, because it seemed like every guy around me in middle school and junior high was a fan.
I definitely had a run where I thought KISS was the best thing ever, but am kind of drawing a blank from the late 70’s until I heard Murmur.
I probably listened to lots of Top 40, with a touch of Devo.
Anyway, Mr. Nicolai is one of Austin’s finest. Rock on, EVH.
The Sex Operation That All Young Men Fear
Surely parachuting in lingerie is a terrible idea.
Hello … Zip Codes …
Wayne Knight CRUSHES IT.
From The A.V. Club …
If the ad seems funnier than it has any right to in this context, that’s because it was written by Seinfeld alum (and Veep showrunner) David Mandel, no stranger to the tics that made Newman so memorable. According to Entertainment Weekly, it was Mandel who convinced a reluctant Knight to reprise the role.
Wait There’s More
Sorry.
This guy is a performance poet from the 70’s. I’ve never heard of him.
For Squirrels
The guitar player in this band, Travis, is a friend of mine, and was in the band we put together from guys at work. He was one of the two survivors of an accident on the way home from a CMJ showcase back in the 90s. They tried to soldier on for a couple of years, changing names and putting out a really good, but much heavier album that their label promptly forgot about. This trailer is evidently a teaser to try and get funding for a documentary.
Theron Like “Heron”
I’ve watched a few of these BTF episodes and this may be my favorite.
