Nardwuar vs. Hannibal Buress



AMDAL isn't dead, it just waits for the internet to catch up. When incredibly talented and hilarious comedian Hannibal Buress (who we've covered in the past, ah 2009) meets equally talented and hilarious interview expert Nardwuar the Human Serviette, the sleeping giant wakes. Both Hannibal and Nardwuar seem on their game this time around. If you want to lose a day, go backwards and check out every interview Nardwuar has ever done. In the age of the internet, I'm surprised celebrities don't respond to questions they've answered 100 times with "google it" or beaming them a link to the last 10 interviews where they've responded with some half-hearted answer for which their publicist has already prepped them. Not so with Nardwuar - this Canadian mastermind pulls shit from their past that has elicited surprise, horror and even anger (in BaBy CuDi's case). Since he usually covers musicians, many times the Human Serviette will pick up on artists that are buzzing, but often he will find acts who I haven't even heard of. If Nardwuar likes them, we probably should.

Anyways, enjoy the above. If you are more psyched on Hannibal than Nardwuar, check out the mini documentary leading up his first 1 hour Comedy Central special.


UPDATE: Ask and I shall receive: Rapper El-P at 1 second in:
"Can you just say to a m%@#$f4#$ "Just google me please. Google me and call me back."
Related: Noisey's "Back and Forth" is an exciting version of the interview - I like KRIT and El-P seems cool, but the A$AP Rocky x Danny Brown Back & Forth series is an instant classic (1-2,3-5)

Mitch Hedberg Reincarnate


Mitch Hedberg was a funny dude (see for yourself). He died of a heroin overdose (No accompanied video). Last night, Mitch Hedberg reappeared as Hannibal Buress, a comedian who is very much alive. Mitch Hedberg's new material has fewer one liners but his laid back stoner delivery can still be heard. If you like Mitch Hedberg and jokes and hate work, then have at it.
