Louis C.K’s awesome comedy series Louie
by There is a gut-wrenching honesty to Louis C.K.’s comedy that makes it impossible to stop watching. One might describe Louie as a more relatable Curb Your Enthusiasm, but that would do the writing and the show a disservice because Louie is a real person (not a Hollywood bazillionaire) and seems to crystallize many universal but taboo ideas about life and death: like when little kids act like dicks, the reality of a bully’s home life, or the vindictive scare talk of the Catholic church. It’s all woven seamlessly together in a profoundly funny and honest way. Also, Louis C.K. directed Pootie Tang, so, he pretty much is a genius.

Kenny Powers is an epic, archetypal character living out one of the greatest lost-glory stories of all time. I’ve watched it three times now, and it keeps getting better. This is a crew that has hit a sweet spot, and it’s inspiring to watch their creation. Read more
Parks and Recreation starring Rontanamo Bay
I wanted so badly to like Parks and Recreation when it first came on; but it not only lacked funny, it was also pretty snoresville. So it was with great trepidation that I resumed watching Season 2, after hearing people everywhere say: ‘It’s really funny’. And now I say to you, dear reader, it is really funny. Read more
Jon Glaser’s Delocated comedy series
I think Jon Glaser is the driest comedian alive. He’s not for everyone, but I’m convinced that everything he does is genius (and funny). Delocated (produced by PFFFR, creators of awesome/fucked, Wondershowzen). What would already be a pretty funny show becomes even darker and more twisted with the addition of ‘Jon’s’ black ski mask and voice modulator. So what are you waiting for? Pranks, the bone zone, the wiggler, and more are waiting for you on Delocated.

Fuck going green. Go blue. Most of the untapped real estate on Planet Earth is under water anyway. These concepts may appear a bit far fetched, but they offer as many positives as they do unrelenting fears. Sustainable climate control, protection from atmospheric devastation, tranquility, no escape, loss of oxygen, giant squid attack, drowning, and other such fun things. Regardless, I am sure we will see something like this someday and the designs are pretty damn cool. Sort of a space station underwater. To infinity and below.

My friend Lenka Kripac, formerly of Aussie group Decoder Ring, now flying solo, has just released her debut single — The Show — and it’s as catchy a slice of pop hedonism as you’re ever going to hear. Be warned: one listen and you may never shake the melody.
