The Reel Deal: Paul Reiser Q&A
When Paul Reiser comes to mind, it’s hard not to think of Paul Buchman, the yin to Helen Hunt’s yang on the wonderfully honest and hilarious sitcom, “Mad About You.” Or Carter Burke, the diabolical corporate lackey that nearly terminates the entire human species in James Cameron’s Aliens. Or the hapless Detroit detective slyly covering...
Sintertainment: Spiegelworld’s Absinthe is a Winning Formula
When it comes to luring traveling entertainment seekers, Vegas has a lot of tricks up its sleeve. Pipes, skin, acrobatics and laughs are some of the most prominent. Absinthe might unite these ingredients better than ever before. Christened after a green, arguably hallucinogenic alcoholic beverage and housed in a white sideshow tent pitched at Caesar’s...
The Reel Deal: Bobcat Goldthwait Q&A
Make no mistake about it, Bobcat Goldthwait isn’t particularly fond of nostalgia. Memories of a loud, trembling on stage persona? Twisted Sister and all those hair bands? Or those silly 80s movies, like One Crazy Summer, Hot to Trot, and Police Academy? Good riddance. Bobcat Goldthwait – Comedy Central “I know that most people only...
LOL Ways: Comedy Works Regular Adam Cayton-Holland Does Conan
Nearly everyone has loved The Simpsons at one juncture or another. Not everyone has dissected episodes joke by joke, though. Adam Cayton-Holland is an anomaly. While ostensibly “working” for his high school fishwrap, Cayton-Holland and his whitehead-riddled peers found time to collectively analyze the setups and punchlines of hundreds–if not thousands–of yellow-bellied laugh-getters. It was...

Brain Pickin’: Coloween MC Chris Miller on Goin’ Commando, Rita Rudner & Birthing Husbands
Chris Miller is about to play king in the castle. Whereas Borat ordered invisible subjects around from a hotel room chair, though, Miller will have hundreds, if not thousands of actual, visible Halloween revelers at his command. The Denver comedian is set to emcee Thornton’s Castle-esque DoubleTree Hilton—one of three venues under Collective 360′s Coloween...
A Masshole in Colorado (Wicked Rad)
For those of you who don’t know the term Masshole: it’s a combination of the words Massachusetts and Asshole. You know, the kind of people who tailgate you until you switch lanes, throw out the birdie if you cut them off, but have no hesitation in cutting you off, can’t complete a sentence without a...
Taking a Knee with 303: John Cheese
Before Peyton Manning donned a Bronco’s orange and blue uniform, before they drafted, started, and then traded Tim Tebow, before anybody even imagined that John Elway was about to put the finishing touches on his career and lead the Broncos to back-to-back championships, Homer Simpson confessed his dream to one day own an NFL franchise....
