This is the first LIVE Dork Forest. In Seattle, before a live audience, I talked with Ed Brubaker and Kermet Apio . Ed is a multi-Eisner Award winning writer of many of the comic books I read. I dork out about HIM a bit and we talked movies and comics and politics and television. It was awesome. Kermet is a great comic (winner of the Great American Comedy Festival) and you should go watch him do it a lot.

Eric Drysdale writes for The Colbert Report and I wasn’t too dorky about that. But I wanted to be. Instead I let him dork out about his freaking love of 3D and the Viewmaster and how it’s all come together for a live show that he does The Man With F.E.E.E.T. (here in LA March 16, 2011 downtown, details on the website). You can also just get a viewmaster and the “reels” on that website to enjoy in your own home. I learned stuff about cameras and the history of the Viewmaster. It’s a great ep.
Notes:
ViewMaster (wiki, origin story)
Viewmaster – Fisher Price
High Dynamic Range Photography
What Eric enjoyed recently that might interest you:
The Rise and Fall of the Bible
Charles Phoenix LA 3D collector
And I talk about this book I enjoy a great deal:

My guests are Gariana Abeyta, projectionist at the ArcLight Cinema and the Silent Movie Theatre, (@garianaabeyta on twitter) and twitter monster Alison Agosti (@Just_Alison on twitter). This show is a little GRAPHIC. It is not Gariana’s fault. It’s Alison’s fault. And… my own. This is an admittedly weird ep. I kinda love it. Not even kinda.
BTW: THE DOORBELL RANG… at 5:35ish… you hear the doorbell ring, I say, “I never do this… I’m going to PAUSE the show” and then… I DIDN’T hit record again and it’s 20 minutes later when I realize. THEN... BONUS: you hear Patrick Brady with the explanation! He's GREAT. Let's all admit it.
Also, In this ep, I prove again that I still don’t know who anyone is.
Mulholland – this is “the man’s” version (or you could see Chinatown)
Rubber – sheriff (there’s “lieutenant”) Yeah. It does look fantastic.
Dogtooth – streaming on Netflix
Placenta Hippie eating thing – I thought about linking it … you can Google if you want cuz it’s too graphic already.
15 min of taping… I pour coffee loud, Gariana stirs too loud.
M. Night Shyamalan – is from India
Brody Stevens has control over his bodily functions. Zack Bro-mance example – watch Between Two Ferns
Xbox – Fable III
Live, from a Shoebox – Alison’s old podcast that you can listen to lots!

Greg Beherendt and Dave Anthony are my guests. They are really funny comics and have their own podcast Walking the Room. This is, if I may say, another great episode MOSTLY about stand up. We all, really, say TOO much. Also, this was taped March 3rd… perhaps I am the only person who didn’t know who Snooki was or is and what #winning meant… but I feel somehow stronger because of it. I was reminded how to grow brussel sprouts this week. Would tiger blood be a good fertilizer?
Greg is at Laughs in Kirkland, WA this weekend
Dave is at Cobbs Comedy Club in San Francisco this weekend

My guests this episode are Karen Rontowski (stand up comic and host of www.supernaturaljunkyard.com) and Jen Kirkman (writer, stand up comic and regular on the Chelsea Handler show). Get this – they both love ghosts and UFO’s and Tarot cards and Karen does a real Tarot card reading. This is a great episode.
Note: For those of you who believed Mazes & Monsters, Tarot card reading is also non-threatening. Remember, everything on TDF is about choice and support. Safe space people.
Ghost Radar App – when I looked for this app I found this in a comment section (about something else), “I downloaded the Facebook and Visual Voicemail apps to my Droid and then uninstalled them. However, the icons are still on my phone” duh duh dum! So beware! (I’m kidding)
Ghost Hunters Survival Guide – book that Karen refers to by two different titles but this was the correct one… she says it’s great!
Pittsfield and Needham, MA
