This is a sketch my friend Casey wrote and voiced.

I'm not an actress, but occasionally I play one on Attack of the Show!

It's gotten close to half a million views on YouTube. Check it out!

Hot Fuzz Webcam Interview

2008-02-16T01:00:00.000-08:00

Here's an interview I did with the guys behind Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz.

A few weeks later, I got to meet them in person. Since our interview had been via webcam, they were surprised to learn that I actually had legs and was close to 6 feet tall.

The internet can be so deceiving.

Famous on the Internets: Brent Simon

2008-02-15T11:24:00.000-08:00

There is no denying that a song about Space Camp already has a strong advantage in capturing the attention of the nerdom, but when it's catchy to boot...well, then you've got Internets gold.

Meet Brent Simon, you've probably seen his awesome videos for his hits World Wired West (The Bit Torrent Song) and Space Camp on YouTube. And if you haven't, well, you'd better get with the program because Brent Simon is going to be a synth superstar.

Check out this exclusive interview with the genius himself as he talks about Ohio, the new album and of course, being famous on the internets. Plus, Brent plays Space Camp live! I dare you to walk away not tapping your foot. I dare you.

Better buy your t-shirt now so that when all your lame, unplugged friends jump on the bandwagon, you'll be able to make fun of them in that way only you can.

Meatwad (hearts) Justin Timberlake

2007-02-02T16:23:00.000-08:00

I did an interview with Aqua Teen Hunger Force co-creator Dave Willis.

Here's a link to the entire written interview. It's pretty interesting. He talks about the movie, its rating, and gives some information about the videogame.

At the end of the interview, Willis, who also does the voice of Meatwad, revealed a tantilizing secret about everyone's favorite shapeshifting wad of beef.

EDIT: The interview got picked up a couple of places including a bunch of gaming blogs like Kotaku and GameSpot.

2007-01-01T20:53:00.000-08:00

He even wrote a theme song for TheFeed.

That means the G4 website is down!

This happens occasionally, so if you see big white boxes on this page and no pictures, that's the reason.

Please check back later, I'm sure it'll be back up soon.

Joe Somar: Internet Superstar

2006-12-08T20:00:00.000-08:00

Joe Somar is an unassuming bike store employee who willingly got sucked into an appearance on The People's Court.

Fate and a broken electric bicycle may have brought Joe to The People's Court, but it's his razor sharp wit and amazing mustache that will make him a star.

Some back story on the case: A man, possibly named Douglas Hopkins, brought an electric bike into the shop in NYC where Somar works. Possibly Hopkins had purchased the broken bike from dude in a grocery store parking lot. Somar and his chums at the bike shop told Possibly Hopkins that they would not be able to fix the bike, so Possibly Hopkins made the choice to leave the bike at the store for several months. Eventually, after several attempts to contact Possibly Hopkins, Joe threw out the bike.

Possibly Hopkins got mad and took the shop to The People's Court.

That's where Joe comes in. Here's his hilarious exit interview after he won the case:

Now, click here to hear Joe talk about the case in this exclusive Podcast!

Brent Simon IRL

2006-12-01T19:59:00.000-08:00

This is the exclusive extended cut of Brent's LA adventure...Now with more interview and hot dogs.
