Monday, July 11, 2011 at 5:02PM The campaign to elect NBC News correspondent Brian Williams is gaining momentum, despite party-pooping Brian Williams defiantly pledging to all his supporters, "[my] only role in this election cycle will be as debate moderator and journalist." You'd think remarks like that would implode a campaign. But no, the website Brian Williams For President has just announced a date for its first rally--Saturday, July 16th at The PIT.

Monday, July 11, 2011 at 1:35PM This Wednesday marks the arrival of Russell Howard, the latest in a fine line of heretofore unknown UK comedians and British people named Russell ready for their USA close-up. He debuts at the The UCBT-NY, which has become the de-facto venue for these sorts of 1st appearances, as most of the theater's seats are taped-off for tipped-off industry on the lookout for the NEXT BIG THING.
Kind of a Joel McHale/Dane Cook mashup, right? I wonder who does his highlights? My hair could use some. According to The News of the World, Russell is "Britain's hottest young comic." They seem like a credible source!

Tuesday, June 28, 2011 at 12:16PM
You don't need to be swimming in your t-shirt to feel good at Hot Tub, Kurt Braunohler and Kristen Schaal's weekly Park Slope party at Littlefield.
NOTES
--Kurt and Kristen played Guess Who? with the SOLD OUT CROWD to find a lucky RANDOM AUDIENCE MEMBER who was then tasked with pelting a moving Adira Amram Experience backup dancer with a ball of some kind. Deep within the chest of the dancer who got hit was a slip of paper revealing which bit Kurt and Kristen would do. Tonight, that bit was "Whoopie Cushion." Kristen then came out dressed as a whoopie cushion and Kurt sat on her.
--Area rocker Ted Leo noodled out 4 songs. All sounded very serious.
--Kristen introduced surprise guest Aziz Ansari saying he's performed for "probably a thousand people." He did a long set, working through baby phobias and general anxiety about adulthood.
--SHOUT OUTS: Rappers Waka Flocka, Gucci Mane and Wiz Khalifa each got name dropped in stories by comedians and it made me think I need to listen to less Ke$ha in order to fully appreciate modern jokes. Is this what you kids are listen to these days?
--Tough break for the Target at the Atlantic Center in Brooklyn. It got booed (for being shitty) during one of Wyatt Cenac's bits. :(

Friday, June 17, 2011 at 1:26PM Spotted this Horrible Bosses ad in which Jason Bateman does that "I'm Jason Bateman and I'm exasperated by the people around me!" thing he's so good at. That's why he makes the big bucks!
"Can you believe these people??" -- Jason Bateman I laughed a bit more during the Captain America trailer that preceded Super 8, but Horrible Bosses could be good, right?!
