I talked to Freaks and Geeks creator, Paul Feig, for 45 minutes and the whole time I am thinking I know this voice. Where do I know him from? Then I found a picture of him from when he was on Sabrina, the Teenage Witch and I still couldnt place him. Cut to hours later Im taking a late afternoon nap (Hey I work from...

One of the most popular Manga books at your local bookstore is Rumble Girls but surprisingly enough no one from the other side of the Pacific Ocean had anything to do with it. Rumble Girls was written and drawn by California native Lea Hernandez. The collected edition of Rumble Girls has been released in traditional Manga size by NBM Publishing.

Those lips! Gina Gershon in person is 80,000 times as sexy as she is in her best films! It was an honor and privilege to get to talk to her in person while she is doing the press tour for her new documentary series, Rocked With Gina Gershon.

United States of Leland is one of the most powerful and depressing movies I have ever seen. In fact I was so depressed after I saw it I just went home and was in a funk until I fell asleep. Its the story of a teenage boy Leland who seems to have everything going for him. He has a famous author for a father, a...

It's ok, DRE. Everyone cries sometime.... You don't have to be ashamed.
Ryan Gosling is a rising young star in the movie world. Hes not rising in the way that James Van Der Beek or Luke Perry did, Gosling is actually quite the brilliant actor. With just a few starring roles in The Believer, Murder by Numbers and now The United States of Leland he has established himself as a powerful dramatic actor that WILL be the...

Other than him being really hot which is what most of these comments are about honestly this dude is really really talented. If he keeps progressing the way is he is now and choosing roles and showcase his talent I think he'll be huge one day.
I like that almost every role he's had he's played someone who is suffering and lost in one way or another. He always seems to pick characters who are a little out there and I really love that about him. Maybe that's because if I was an actress I would pick those types of roles too...whatever.
He's amazing though, cute and Canadian!!

Half Nelson was a fantastic acting showcase for him (and Shareeka Epps). A million things about that role could have been played bombastically but he kept it subdued and nuanced.
Sophie Crumb is a unique and young talent. At the age of 23 her comic, Belly Button Comix, was published in Holland by Oog & Blik. Fantagraphics was the obvious American publisher to print the work here because they also publish the work of her father, R. Crumb.
Sophie sounds as adjusted as any child of Crumbs would be. Shes taken drugs, traveled the world,...

erm...you asked me a while back about my sorry assed attempt at comic booking? it's just basically about a LA cop named akira and an evil diner babe waitress and a dysfunctional punk rock quasi-couple so far. it's just for fun and it's funny and fun to expand on. i like it. my friend does too. i think underneath it all, we're just trying to prove who's the better drawer...heh heh. i dunno who's winning...
I first heard of The Get Up Kids back when I was working for a music television show. They sounded like they were some kind of inspirational band in the vein of Indomitable Spirit. But of course once you hear those power punk chords all that junk just falls right out of your head. Its been 8 years since the Kids first hit the scene...

Along with bikini teams, Volvos and meatballs Sweden has also sent over some damn good rock bands. Following in the path of this so called 80s music revival is the kickass Swedish rock band The Sounds.
The Sounds album, Living in America, is one of the first albums from the indie record label, 456 Entertainment, which is co-owned by Carson Daly. Their first single "Living...

Sweden rocks. I'm just surprised you didn't already know that!

The Von Bondies are one of the best of bands out there right now. But recently much of their time has been spent stepping out the shadow of The White Stripes, a fellow band from Detroit. Much of the press on the Von Bondies has been due to the attack by White Stripes frontman, Jack White on lead Bondie, Jason Stollsteimer. Certainly, the press hasnt...

These guys are incredible live-- definitely see them if you get the chance.

I have yet to see the Von Bondies, however I did see all of thoes guys in their early bands, Jason and Marcie were in The Baby Killers, Carrie was in the Fags and Don was in Mazinga. My brother managed Mazinga for a while and our record label released stuff by all of thoes bands execpt THe Baby Killers, it's nice to see your people you know make it big.
I have bought a copy of their newest CD and it's about 50/50,
I always knew that Don Blum was a great drummer, but I never expected that Jason would write anything as catchy as C'mon C'mon.

For her column at Salon.com Mary Roach has jousted, fought a bull, acted as a "pee buddy" for a man with a bashful bladder, eaten a raw fish eyeball, bowled with amputees, attempted vaginal weight lifting, smeared herself with costly bottled pheromones to test their effectiveness, wrestled alligators and sniffed armpits at a deodorant test lab. But her biggest challenge came with doing the research...

I've never heard of this book before but after reading this I think I'll have to look for it. Great interview.

This book is in my top 5 favourites. Love love love it, think it's about time I read it again! This woman is brilliant!
When I first called Neal Pollack for our interview I wasnt sure which Neal Pollack I was going to talk to. Was it going to be Neal Pollack the world weary raconteur, Pollack the "Greatest Living American Writer" or maybe even the real guy. Speaking to Pollack he told me that he was a bit tired of the characters he created out of himself so...
