Guys With Feelings w/ Paul Scheer

jasonnash:

Paul Scheer stopped by GWF last week. He rattled off like nine super great stories and then he had to hit a show at UCB. The kid was on fire. It was like a podcasting clinic.

 Paul Scheer

Putting on podcasting clinics are Paul Scheer’s business.

MAY 3. RORY SCOVEL.

High Road Trailer

Here’s the movie trailer I’ve been working on this week. It’s for UCB co-founder Matt Walsh’s new comedy, High Road, a totally improvised and truly independent film. The movie does not have distribution yet and is premiering on Friday as part of the Newport Beach Film Festival (come down and see it, I’ll be there). It’s a funny, charming movie, and it’s got a great cast, including James Pumphrey (who helped edit this trailer with me), Abby Elliott, Zach Woods, Lizzy Caplan, Matt L. Jones, Rob Riggle, Joe LoTruglio, Ed Helms, Rich Fulcher, Brandon Johnson, Horatio Sanz, Andy Daly, Dylan O’Brien, and Kyle Gass. What a cast, right? So please see the movie. It’s also playing next month at the Seattle Film Festival. For more info go to the movie website. The excellent music in the trailer is by the band State Bird. Go buy their stuff, it’s great.

Things are now starting to come together for High Road with this 2nd trailer, despite some sites calling it “UCB fan porn”.  With no regard to that label, I’m pretty damned hyped to see it, especially after interview writer/director Matt Walsh here.

Amazing line-up.

I’ll be on the outdoor stage of this. Because I take it to the streets.

I’d sit through 7 hours of show to see Paul F. Tompkins.  Thankfully everything else in that seven hours and even after is going to be pretty great.

Remain Champagne: REDNECK HIPSTER

remainchampagne:

I wonder how an overly patriotic redneck hipster from Silverlake would talk? I think he’d sound…a whole lot…like this:

***

“All right. I don’t know how you do it in Victorville or Redlands or Fresno or Lancaster or Palmdale or wherever, but I’ll tell ya how we do it here in Silverlake!…

I bet this will happen in a year or so.  Matt Champagne is ahead of his time.
