Podcasts seem to be the gateway to comedy albums for me. I bought a Todd Glass album the other day because it was mentioned on the Nerdist podcast. I can’t remember where I was recommended Hannibal Buress, but I own that one now. Anthony Jeselnik was funny on Doug Loves Movies which led me to buy his album, Shakespeare, that I have now been listening to on repeat. Where as a lot of comedians play the part of an self-loathing, awkward outcast, Anthony plays it super confident. An oversimplification of his style is poking fun at very difficult topics, which can make it tough for some people to get into, but Kevin and Austin, you are probably going to love him:

Friday Fun Stuffs!?!
- I don’t know how this happened, but Bobby beat me to hearing the new Strokes song. You can download on their site, in it’s entirety now.

- No one told me about this, I just found out how Xtina screwed up the national anthem yesterday.
- Pop Candy let me know that the new Lemmy documentary is on VH1 Classic tonight.
- It/she also let me know about the trailers for X-Men: First Class and the Arthur remake.

Death Letter?
White Stripes are over. Major bummer… dude.
Will hearing a snippet of new Strokes compensate?
How about a movie trailer? Â The girl-Hangover movie looks pretty good.
Still not better? Maybe this will help a little:

Much ado about Meat
After length discussions about The Bacon Explosion with Mike, I felt it necessary to post about Epic Mealtime, a series of meat/bacon centric cooking videos that Neil found and I have been obsessed with. My view of Canadians isn’t so bleak anymore. You should probably watch the rest of the videos on their youtube channel; I was trying to figure out the best video to put up as a sample, but they are all so good. Including the breakfast one:

All That Crazy Shit
I can sometimes get this excited about dj-ing, but there is normally a few high-lifes involved:
