Hey and also turn off the radio and find a way to indulge in full albums. There is some amazing art being made.

Friday Videos - August 31st, 2018

posted August 31, 2018 #

Headed down to DragonCon this weekend. It'll be a quick trip but I suspect it will be absurdly enjoyable. Watch the grams for progress as I imagine I won't be able to stop taking photos of every single thing I see.

In the meantime, here's this...

Donut County - after many years of teasing, the game where you play a hole that swallows objects is finally available on tons of platforms, can't wait to dive in.
My Roommate Sonic - thanks to the AV Club I also stumbled on this prior offering from Donut County creator Ben Esposito. It works as a short film but it's also a full-on game; should you want to take on the yearning roommate role yourself. There's some questionable undertones here but I have to believe there's no harmful intent.
Cats Whiskers - maybe not that fascinating for all but lots of slo-mo cat footage, so, I'm in.
Sandusky, Ohio Primer - I've shared this plenty previously but it broke 12,000 views this week thanks to a post on /r/listentothis. The post got yanked because "Chris Farley" was in the title and the video isn't really a song as much as it's a Hello but, regardless, I'm very pleased to see the view count get there. Also, our first Troll comment. Great stuff.
My Bad - don't interrupt a conversation.
Playing Pokemon Blue - tiny endurance challenge to patiently wait through the beginning but it's an amusing payoff.

If you're desperate for something more, check this short film SwanSong featuring Noel Fielding - not an incredibly upbeat offering but good to see the Mighty Boosh star doing some more dramatic interpretations.

Introducing San Dimas Today

posted August 29, 2018 #

Happy to announce a brand new podcast joining the ranks of the We Own This Town network entitled San Dimas Today. The show, hosted by Kelly Bolick and Jason T. Meares, Esq.*, is a deep dive into all things Bill and Ted. Yes, that Bill & Ted, the Excellent Adventure and Bogus Journey ones.

It is a limited edition series that takes a look at the production of the films, the soundtracks, the cultural impact of it and even includes interviews with folks involved in its creation. While I imagine that a show about two ridiculous movies may not be for everyone, I can say that for those that do enjoy the movie, the podcast is going to be an entertaining and enlightening time. Here's a five minute clip from the first episode:

As the show is accepted by the various platforms I'll be adding the handy links over here but, as with most things, you can keep up with the latest on the social networks.

Tommy Wants His Mommy

posted August 29, 2018 #

If you're a fan of Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist, I recommend you carve 15 minutes out of your day to watch this Thomas McDonald short film - Tommy Wants His Mommy. The short was selected for the 2018 New York Television Festival and has that slow burn, suburban malaise, absurdity that Katz was so good at. I love how the vocal performance feels filled with a bit of laughter that you can't quite tell if it's scripted or if it's the actors on the verge of breaking.
