Some call Todd VanDerWerff the TV reviewer who never sleeps, though he actually does — while jogging!

"Surely a Lori Beth Denberg or Michael 'Donkey Lips' Bower would charge the same amount of money the network is spending on googly eyes and popsicle sticks."

Do you mean the guitar screech that is going through an effect pedal so that it sounds like a fuzzy bass, or do you mean the guitar screech that is going through an effect pedal so that it sounds like a synthesizer?

They were indeed underrated, but a big reason why I liked them was because of Ash Bowie. The latter release(s) had that "medieval" sound that you mentioned which I think was Mary solo. Just like with Wild Flag, she needs a good musician to rein her in.

Julie Christie, the rumors are true!

Doctors say that Nordberg has a 50/50 chance of living, though there's only a 10 percent chance of that.

…You could buy a piece of bubblegum?

The last two albums (vs. Evil, Offend Maggie) have shown the softer side of Deerhoof. I recommend Milk Man and Friend Opportunity for some fun experimental pop.

Great reviews, Scott & Noel. I am especially excited for Miss Bala.

I'm not a hater (heck, I've seen CG live) but I do find his lyrics repetitive and tedious. Every single song is about wordplay and how much pussy he gets. I need more topics than that to remain interested.

"This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim."

Louis C.K. is America's best living comic. No further discussion.

The review is ambiguously messy. If I had to boil down its essence: "Garden of Arms is an improvement in some areas, and a let down in others."

"Finest Hour falls short of literally being the best 60 minutes of Oswalt’s career, but it’s still a sterling example of the stand-up form."

Don't forget to close the door behind you.

Agreed. I used to watch a lot of Caliente and Camara Infraganti.

If you're a fan of Peanuts, you should seek out Schulz's earliest newspaper comic called Li'l Folks. You can buy a collection of the strip through his museum's website. The comic is told from infant/child perspective, but it's much more cynical than Peanuts.

Charlie: See that door right there? That door marked 'Pirate'? You think a pirate lives in there?

Of all the places, why would you fuck there?

I know those words, but that title makes no sense.
