Mini "Link Blog"

The best link blog on the internet:

  1. I started to watch Fallout on Amazon Prime. It's not bad. The set design and gaget designs are excellent. 4/21.
  2. MF DOOM Vs. The Grateful Dead and Wu-Tang Vs. The Beatles album length mashups. I rarely listen to The Beatles or the Dead, but these mixes make them palatable. 4/21.
  3. Hundreds of Beavers is the best film I've seen in a long while. Its like the live action version of a 19030s cartoon. 4/21.
  4. America is changing rapidly. Vermont-based photographer Jim Westphalen is documenting its rural decline. 4/21.
  5. 60 year old Conan O'Brien on Hot Wings was peak Conan O'Brien. I'm glad he still has an edge. 4/21.
  6. Duel'in Firemen was a video game that almost happened in the 1990s. This promotional video features many B-Movie stars like Rudy Ray Moore and musicians from DEVO. 4/6.
  7. A documentary about the comic Elfquest. 3/16.
  8. When your French Fries are 10 minutes late on DoorDash. I love this video and I think that is because it represents the attitude of people in the North East and the fun of hanging out late night and eating junk food. 3/6.

  16. The World's Greatest Speakers. Maybe, maybe not, but fun to experiment with. Attaching exciters to random surfaces. Where to buy them. 2/21.
  17. Sasquatch Sunset red-band trailer. A movie about Sasquatches. That's my kind of movie. 2/21.

  24. Interviewing Killdozer Victims (I Brought My Bulldozer). Looks like WhistlinDiesel is building his own Killdozer. 1/28
