Morning Debriefing 10/2/11

1) Doug Stanhope finds out that he’s sort of a libertarian on John Stossel on Fox and John Stossel finds out how to not do comedy.

2) Everything you’ve possibly imagined to come true of The Room’s Tommy Wiseau trying to play video games as a web series, The Tommy Wi Show, if that’s something that you’ve imagined, have come true thanks to Machinima and Payman Benz.

3) We’re just saying that NTSF:SD:SUV, The League, How Did This Get Made?, & Crash Test’s Paul Scheer will be on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon tomorrow. Just sayin’…

4) First, watch Drive. Second, (whether you loved it or hated how the film highlighted how good Ryan Gosling is) watch this sketch from Josh Androsky, Mike Burns, and Lindsay Ames. Don’t mix up the order.

5) The Jesse Miller Talk Show Video Invite is an event in of itself and reason enough to make sure you attend the live show.
