Hamburger Time

Thanks to everyone who came and had fun at the Neil Hamburger shows. Comedy Bar, Casbah and Starlight Room are all run by good folk. No thanks to people in Toronto who think "Neil Hamburger wants people to heckle him and anyone else involved in his show". If you're going to use that as a rock solid argument, you're wasting my time and also you're wasting the human body you inhabit. That's not the thing. Luckily, that is a tiny group of fools - the majority of people at the shows were there for the laughs.

Game Of Throbs

I'm watching a lot of this "Game Of Thrones" show right now and I'm not going to lie to you - I love it. Was an ill child's final wish that somebody would make the perfect cruddy soap opera fantasy porno? It must have been, because this HBO series has all the earmarks of the books I that permanently ruined me as a member of sports-enjoying society - it has valiant acts of sacrifice, intrigue, whoring, barbarians and magic. I haven't read the books they are based on, because I have developed a late-in-life paper allergy, but I'm going to guess this is what awaits us in season 2:
- Hundreds of unsimulated, crusty HJs
-A dragon making out with a 'little dude'
- King demands people listen to him but refuses to listen to people. Why kings gotta be like that? That's kings, eh?!
-A talking sword flirts with a cup.
- An old man acts like he's seen it all. Really he's just a little boy inside. We go inside him "Three Kings" style and see the little boy, who is clearly grossed out from being inside an old man.
- Genocide, patricide, regicide, fratricide, ratricide, gatricide, matricide, Gattaca, batricide and child hitting are all rendered entertaining when done with British accents and in the case of Peter Dinklage, "Jeremy Irons meets Alan Rickman" voice.
-The overuse of the phrase 'I can. And I will.' shall continue.
- We will meet the character "Kal Doggo" - a dog man barbarian. Arf!

Put Me On Your Podcast


The photo above is from a recent appearance on "The Best Show On WFMU" - a radio show that is also PODCASTED. It is a great show, thus it also must be a great podcast.
It didn't get cancelled after I was graciously allowed on the show. In fact it has arguably become even more famous since my appearance. What I'm trying to say: put me on your podcast and good things will happen. Yes, I am threatening you. With good things.

best,
Nick
