At long last, the short film that I made along with Charlie Sanders has found its way to the internets. We really had a great time putting this together, and if it does well, we might have the opportunity to do some more long form content like this on the site.
So if you like what you see, PLEASE REBLOG THIS AND SPREAD IT AROUND AS MUCH AS YOU CAN!!! SERIOUSLY!!!
Even if it’s not your cup of tea, it’s very cool that FOD let us do something like this. It was a real learning experience for both Charlie and I, and something that I’m very proud of. The running time is just under 18 minutes, but I promise, it will fly by.
Thank you and please enjoy, “THE BIG DOG!”
This fantastic short features friend of Olde English Charlie Sanders and many other people you will recognize. I hope you enjoy it.
Dance Clubs Are The Worst. An original dance song about hating dance clubs. Written by me & Sarah, directed by Vince, with damn catchy music written & produced by Jesse Novak. This one comes from a very real place.
This College Humor video features a new original song by Jesse Novak! Or, to reorder that sentence more appropriately — College Humor made a music video for the new Jesse Novak song!
Before you catch Jonathan Sollis (AKA Jonny Famous AKA He Saved My Life Once) in the exquisite corpse project we all just wrapped, and before you catch The Fat Jew (AKA The King Of Brunch AKA way too many AKAs) tweeting his putrid life away, you can catch them both in the trailer for their show The skinNY.
I love everyone involved, so I’m glad it’s good so I don’t have to lie to my loved ones. (AM I lying?)
Produced by Nick Gallo (graphics editor at The Onion, and associate producer of the movie Big Fan) and with cameos by me (Caleb) and many good friends including members of both The Auctioneers and The London Souls, Leo Fitzpatrick, Baron Von Fancy’s artwork, and a whole gang of pals I’m too linked-out to link-up, you know it’s gonna be hotter than fuego. I mean it is.

Last week, Daniel Tosh featured our seven year-old sketch “Hello? Fuck!” on his Comedy Central series Tosh.0. Here, in their entirety, are his comments on the sketch.

Hey y’all,
I’m hitting the road for the next two weeks or so with my lady as we move from NYC to LA. We’ll be posting about our adventures over at Maya, Dave, and The United States of America.
If you need your I Love Rap fix, may I recommend going back to the beginning and checking up on all the classics that you’ve already missed out on!
Otherwise, see you soon.
Should be back by July 7th …
Dave’s on a road trip to LA, and you can follow along!

Profiles of the Insecure, Episode 2, directed by Charlie Sanders, starring meeeeeee!
Father’s Day Bonus: “Can Susie come out on a date?”
This sketch was written by Adam, Dave, Jesse and me over the course of a couple days. For inspiration we watched songs from the Nightmare Before Christmas, “Poor Unfortunate Souls” from The Little Mermaid, and “Be Prepared” from The Lion King.
This was so much fun to write, we actually ended up with several more verses than we needed. Here are some of the extra stanzas that weren’t quite good enough to make the final cut:
They sure think I’m quite a dunce,
my son and daughter (stupid runts),
but I have saved for years (not months)
and now I’ll cash them all at once!
Look at all these I.O.U.s
Now it’s time to pay their dues
“Any household chore I choose?”
I choose them all! I win! You lose!
This one good for one free hug
I will make him hug a bug!
The bug will be atop a bear,
That will give him quite a scare!
And while he labors doing that
My daughter says she’ll feed the cat,
And the cat that I have found?
The most dangerous one around!
All this could have been prevented
If one gift they had presented.
And if they had really meant it,
I would have been so contented!
But all I got was disrespected!
Cast aside and then neglected.
Well, there’s a lesson to be had:
Never disrespect your dad!
See I’m not a dishonest guy,
But when they do not specify,
I’m forced to make s tricky choice,
And pick what would best fit their voice:
“I owe you one CD machine”
I wonder what “CD” could mean?
Cash dispensing? Car defending?
Cake detecting? Carl defriending?
Now here I have two guarantees:
“Will shut up” and “Will shoot breeze.”
If I request both things I’m owed
I might just see their heads explode!
Now you’ll build me pyramids!
That is why I reared you kids!
Since I’m such a super guy,
Erect a statue ten feet high!
All these coupons signed in pen,
I’ll never have to work again!
All these years I’ve planned and schemed
And now it is time to REDEEM!
This is the first episode of a new video series my friend Charlie Sanders and I (Raphael) put together called “Profiles of the Insecure.” We’ll post a new video every Monday, with alternating actors; this week’s video features Charlie; next week will be me.
The idea behind this series was: what if instead of worrying about being “viral” or “topical” or “digg-worthy” or “effects-heavy” or “adequate lighting” or “proper video compression” or “second draft” — what if we just made some videos that we thought were funny and threw them up for our friends to see?
You can subscribe to our channel on youtube (do people still do that?) and we’ll be posting our videos on Vimeo also, if that’s more your speed (watch this space).
Enjoy!
