Late Night - Baking with Bev Tanner

 

A standard late night baking segment.

How Donuts Are Made

 

I love donuts and I'm passionate about them. For my money, cake donuts are not donuts - there is only yeast. Everything else is pointless and a waste of time.

I'll throw something else out there that will probably affect nobody in the world. When I was in elementary school, we had a day where we were all sat down and shown a movie where someone invents a donut making machine that goes haywire and makes infinite donuts. The conundrum of the movie is literally that a machine won't stop making donuts and they're just piling up and they don't know how to stop it. The movie was terrible but the image of the delicious donuts, as well as the mechanization aspect, were enough to keep me interested and leave an indelible memory.

If you're looking for that movie, it's "The Doughnuts" from 1963 and you can watch it here. All the top youtube comments are people talking about how they also remember watching it in school.  And it is still terrible. But thanks to the above video I now know that the machine in the movie is making cake donuts.

Late Show - Please Stop Calling Me Chief

 

A compilation of the game "Please Stop Calling Me Chief" which later became "Please Stop Calling Me Debbie" which, if I recall correctly, eventually became "Please Stop Calling Me Monty." Dave never liked doing it and it never really turned out the way one would hope but that was why it's one of my all-time favorites.

Tommy Wiseau's Got a New One

 The new trailer for Tommy Wiseau's new movie "Big Shark":

Do you see how it stops being a trailer mid-way through? And the official website doesn't work. And sometimes it does work and just goes to Tommy's store. Yeah, that sounds about right.

Meanwhile, someone on Reddit says that Greg Sestero said the trailer is just a joke trailer with no real movie incoming. But so far, the rest of the internet is taking it seriously. We shall see.

Radiohead's Most Complex Song

Only recommended for Radiohead fans.

This business of time signatures and changing time signatures is mostly alchemy to me - it makes some sense but finer points escape me. Still, I found the video to be worthwhile.
