Imminent Release

I haven't had anything to brag about for awhile, so it's very convienent that this comes along, because I've been needing some sort of confidence-slash-ego boost. I'm hoping that we're rolling into a nice little period of releases through the beginning of this year. But first and foremost-

ZACH GALIFIANAKIS: LIVE AT THE PURPLE ONION gets released by Shout! Factory at the beginning of March.

However, if I'm correct, this DVD as well as a bunch of others I've worked on are available through Netflix exclusively. Including- Joe Rogan: Live, Comedians of Comedy: Live at the El Rey, and Comedians of Comedy: The Documentary. All of which are highly recommended for the discerning alt-comedy fan in your neighborhood.

But Jeff, what exactly was your involvement in these hilarious docu-comedies? After all, we did subscribe to this blog to hear about your latest escapades and exploits and other e-starting words that excite and enthrall us!

I'm glad you asked, obvious self-promoting italics! I'll lay it down straight for y'all. I didn't do much more than Post assistance work on Comedians of Comedy, but for Zach and Rogan I was the assistant editor(i made the end credits crawl!) and got to go up to San Francisco for a few days to shoot Zach's DVD(the first night of which he blasts Netflix about a hundred times with all the owners of the company in the room laughing their heads off).

So there you go! It's a great DVD with a bunch of hilarious deleted scenes. It's not a standard stand-up comedy/live show DVD in that it's chopped up by small sketches and documentary bits all of which are awesome. One reviewer said that if you're not familiar with Zach, this may not be the place to jump on, but I think that if you're familiar with alt-comedy in general(alt-comedy=NOT Dane Cook) you'll appreciate Zach's delightfully bizarre humor.

See you in the kill-zone!
