Norm Macdonald's talk show is coming to Netflix, titled "Norm Macdonald Has a Show". The trailer is out now.
All episodes will be available 9/14.
I have two conflicting feelings about this. I'm pessimistic that Netflix has tried to make the show "slicker" and more produced. But I'm hopeful that Norm is fiercely independent enough to resist interference. Hopefully it goes well.

Watching The Princess Bride for the First Time
When youtube suggested a video from Funny or Die, I was extremely skeptical (as we all should be). But this brand of unbridled femininity is as magical as the movie that inspires it.

Dave and Conan
It could be the greatest compilation of all-time. It's Conan on Dave's show and Dave on Conan's show.
My new favorite thing is Dave and Conan talking about Bob Crane (Col. Hogan on Hogan's Heroes).
The innocence of Part 1 gives way to turbulence and controversy as Part 2 mostly consists of Letterman commenting on the Tonight Show situation in 2010. It's still kind of fun though. Don't miss the last Conan interview from 2012.

K-Mart Music Archive Online
There is an online archive where you can listen to the tapes played over the K-Mart PA from 1989 to 1993.
It's available here. Can I recommend July 1990? What a fine vintage.
And I should say don't listen to the Christmas tapes yet because you'll sink into a nostalgic depression.
Here's a mystery... Periodically, someone will say, in between songs, "Security, please report to aisle 3" or something to that effect. So why is that recorded on the tape (which is played on a loop)? I can only surmise that K-Mart didn't have security but wanted people to think that they did. That's a good idea, as far as it goes, but when you have the guy with the radio voice doing the announcement (and not the woman who actually works there speaking into a drive-thru quality mic) anyone can figure out that it's a ruse.

Chris Gethard Show - What's In the Dumpster?
This is excellent.
I'm not familiar with the Chris Gethard Show but had to watch this episode where Paul Scheer and Jason Mantzoukas guest and try to determine "what's in the dumpster".
