» ILIS Interviews Jim Gaffigan |
|
October 24, 2008 12:20 PM - by Itslikeimsayin
|
Jim Gaffigan is currently on "The Sexy Tour" leading up to the taping of his next Comedy Central special in Austin in early December. Before that, however, he has shows in San Francisco and at the Wiltern in Los Angeles next weekend, Nov 7 & 8. In November he's doing 12 shows in a span of 11 days in Boston and New York (check Jim's Tour Schedule for details).
Almost two years ago, Jim met with isoS/Matt for an episode of AST Radio that covered his Midwestern upbringing, his formative years in standup and the benefits and difficulties of being part of such a rich, burgeoning comedy scene in early-'90s New York City. Earlier this week, I spoke with Jim on the phone to further examine his comedic process, his unrelenting performance schedule, making the leap from comedy clubs to performing in theaters and much more.

» The Sklar Bros. are Back On Topps |
|
October 2, 2008 4:05 PM - by isoS
|
Randy and Jason Sklar ("Cheap Seats") have returned to the sports world in a new web series for Topps called "Back on Topps." Described as "The Office" meets the "This is SportsCenter" campaign, the series follows twin heirs to the Topps fortune Leyland and Leif Topps, who are forced to work their way from the bottom up in their own family's company after their Uncle Marvin sells Topps to Michael Eisner (a premise based loosely on reality: Eisner did, in fact, buy Topps). Look for appearances by AST faves like Matt Walsh, Jason Nash, Ed Helms, Janet Varney and Eddie Pepitone to name a few, as well as sports figures like Baron Davis, Dennis Rodman, David Ortiz and Johnny Damon.
"Back On Topps" is playing now on foxsports.com.

 Louis C.K. appears at The Coach House in San Juan Capistrano tonight, followed by a show at the new Largo at the Coronet on Sunday. It’s all part of a new tour working toward his next special, “Louis C.K. Hilarious.”
His last tour resulted in “Chewed Up,” an hour special premiering on Showtime on Saturday, October 4 at 11:00 pm.
Prior to his arrival in Southern California, I was able to conduct an email interview with him about his dedication to creating new material, his maturation as a comic and much more.
