Morning Debriefing 7/12/11
1) Allan Herrrmerrn’s School of French Kissing for Dogs from the Midnight Show-not for the faint of gut.
2) Kurt Braunohler’s World Wild of Animals: Killer Whales-Yes, it’s another hilarious video about animals, but only because it’s educational in the way animal videos should be. Also, if you’re on Tumblr, follow kbwwa.tumblr.com for all past and future episodes.

3) America’s Misguided War on Offensive Humor: an Interview with Paul Provenza on Salon.com
Provenza: And the true irony is, I have a friend who does a lot of business in Japan, and he said you go into any bar or nightclub in Japan, and everybody is making tsunami jokes. You deal with it! But Gilbert’s the bad guy. So what, is it timing? Well, whose timing?
4) Connected Comedy Interview with Levity Comedy Manager and Producer Reg Tigerman.
5) Larry David will do stand up again. [via Punchline Magazine]
6) Wondering what you missed at some of the biggest comedy events in LA? Check out photo albums for the Midnight Show hosted by James Van Der Beek by Liezl and the Everything is Festival by Konstatine Simakis!

Old Man Weldon: “I noticed you have the same shoes as I do. The logical conclusion: you must have stolen them from me.”
Preach it Will.
Today I read an AV Club article about a Cleveland based sketch troupe, Last Call Cleveland, who is all but accusing Conan of stealing a bit they’ve done a bunch of times in the past. Punchline rolled with it, and it all started here in the Cleveland Scene. Now, thankfully, there’s no…
Don’t miss this great special ONE NIGHT ONLY show with GREG PROOPS in the improvised stand-up show, SET LIST. Comics get a brand new “set list” as they walk onstage, and perform as if it is their own. Joining this special show: Jimmy Dore, Jackie Jones, Jake Kroeger, Eddie Pepitone, and Carrie Snow.
This is Greg’s last Set List show in Los Angeles before joining the show at the Montreal Just For Laughs Festival and the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
This is going to be a fantastic show without regard to me being on it. Still, I’m on it and absolutely thrilled…. to connect a bunch of topics to my incredibly low opinion of myself. IT’S GOING TO BE GREAT!!!

2) NSFW Hal Rudnick’s doing an interview on the XXX Parody of Anchorman. Well, actually, he’s doing it while the movie’s shooting.

3) Paul Scheer leads the way with National Terrorism Strike Force: San Diego:: Sports Utility Vehicle or NTSF:SD:SUV premieres on Adult Swim next week!

4) HOLY FUCK! Dave Ross gets interviewed in Laugh Button!
5) If you feel like truly staying in because you want to catch Louie on FX at 10:30PM, don’t forget to catch the premiere of the 2nd Season of the Green Room with Paul Provenza on Showtime 11PM AND the legendary Don Rickles will be making an appearance on the Tonight Show on NBC 11:35PM.

They’re not quite sure, but here’s what they know: it will be a one act play, it will have live musical accompaniment, it’ll co-star some amazing performers, and it will be almost entirely improvised. That’s right, they’ll provide an outline, but the rest is up to fate! How exciting is that? Answer? Very.

Just letting you know that it is not a stand up show, it’s more of a play. It’s funny, wacky, maybe touching?, and errie. It is filled with most of…
Morning Debriefing 7/15/11
1) Comedy Legend Don Rickles on Leno Part 1 & 2.
2) It should be obvious what measures you should take if accusing someone of joke thievery, but here’s a pretty comprehensive list on Splitsider, just in case you’re the comedy equivalent of sue-happy.
3) Yesterday, NBC’s Community Showrunner Dan Harmon had a great post about meeting George Gallo, the writer of Midnight Run and the magic of trying to do anything creative. If you haven’t already reblogged it, give it a read.
4) Best 30 Minutes or Less Podcasts from the Plop List
5) If you’re not reading the fantastic daily thoughts of Matt Champagne, perhaps start now by reading a conversation wherein Princess Leia hits on C-3PO.
C-3PO: Might I remind you, Princess, that I am a droid?
LEIA: Your excuses are so cute.
C-3PO: I am fluent in nearly all forms of verbal communication.
LEIA: Oh, I can think of one form you’re definitely not fluent in.
