Cool thing to buy this week: Mitch Fatel “Public Display of Perversion”

Mitch Fatel - Public Display of Perversion Mitch Fatel returns with his new comedy album, Public Display of Perversion which just hit stores this week.

Seven years have passed since Fatel’s last comedy album, Super Retardo and 4 years since his last special, Is Magical. And if you’re thinking age and getting married has changed Fatel’s on-stage persona of a mumbling sex crazed prepubescent teenager, then you obviously don’t know Mitch Fatel. There’s still something entirely engaging about watching a grown man whispering, “I love breasts” and giggling incessantly. Public Display of Perversion is like you’re being transported to your 12-year-old middle school self and remembering how hilarious it was to start learning about girls and boobs and dick jokes.

On why it took so long to release the new album, Fatel addresses the wait through a post on his website. Read the rest of this entry

Mandroid Sketch Chris Hardwick will release his DVD and CD Mandroid this Tuesday.

The DVD will feature unreleased and uncensored material as the Nerdist himself breaks down the culture of geek while donning one of the shiniest suits he could find. One can never be too robot-y when they are talking about Mandroids. That’s what they say around these parts. And by “around these parts,” we mean in our basements as we fire up the old Joke-O-matic 2000. It’s a bit outdated a model but she’s paid for, and finances are tight these days.
