1) WTF! w/Marc Maron IS GOING TO BE ON THE TERRESTRIAL AIRWAVES!!! KCRW 89.9FM THIS SUNDAY 11AM!!! (Yes, we are indeed shouting this bit of news)

2) On the small screen tonight, there’s of course Louie on FX 10:30PM, but there’s also, of course, the Green Room w/Paul Provenza on Showtime 11PM, and Nate Bargatze on Conan on TBS 11PM, but let’s not forget the PREMIERE of NTSF:SD:SUV on Adult Swim 12:15AM (which is technically tomorrow morning, but who really buys into that)

3) Ron Babcock is awesome at making people laugh.  When it comes to birdhouses… well, it got him into this reality competition, which you should really vote for him (just give the video a thumbs up)

4) The Ballad of Louis C.K. and Sarah Palin-an excerpt from the August issue of GQ
