Jonas Polsky: Comedy Audiences And Taping →

jonaspolsky: by Jonas Polsky This evening there was a dust-up about how a young Patton Oswalt handled an audience member videotaping his set. Patton asked if she was taping and the woman responded, “You’re going to want that whole chunk on tape, it was perfect!” I wasn’t there, but that quote underscores… Here’s a perfect evaluation as to why Patton Oswalt wasn’t an...

UFC 141

This is a two fight card, and I’m not going to pretend like it’s not. The only problem is that the UFC got cold feet by not putting it on New Year’s Eve. The company always has a show right around the weekend of New Year’s, but when the biggest party night of the year rolled around on a Saturday this year, they chickened out and put their biggest main event of 2011 on a...

A Tale of Two Games

New video games in my house are pretty rare outside of a sudden and/or unexpected cash influx, and to get two new games inside of a month is like finding the Loch Ness monster hanging out with Bigfoot. Yet, here we are, as I’ve acquired both Batman: Arkham City and WWE ‘12. Both are sequels to popular franchise games, but that’s about the only thing the two have in common. ...

UFC 139 Predictions

I write these previews for my other “professional” blog, but no one cares about them there, so why not spread them over to another forum where people will also not care about them? And here we are. Sadly, this might be a show that I don’t see, but it’s got some far-reaching implications for the light-heavyweight and bantamweight divisions, so I’d feel remiss if I...
