Brian Posehn Is A Funny Dude

I ran a "Mitch Fatel Is A Funny Dude" post a few days ago and got a great response. I love comedians and I'm going to start to feature some of my favorite acts out there. Brian Posehn is a quirky guy who has had bit parts in "Just Shoot Me," "The Sarah Silverman Program," "The Comedians of Comedy," and my favorite, "3 South." After the jump, check out some clips of his comedy.

Just like Fatel, Posehn is going to be at the Columbus Funny Bone here in a couple of months. I am definitely going to check it out, I heard he is hilarious in person. His "Nerd Rage" comedy album was hilarious, it's just track after track of huge build-ups and great, smart punchlines. He loves metal and I can only imagine him as a odd teenager, he probably drove a Trans Am. I would think that he would have probably been best friends with Chuck Klosterman if they knew each other back then.

I mentioned the show "3 South," in the preview and not many of you are probably familiar with the show. It was a short-lived animated show on MTV (2002-09) that took place in a college dorm. It was hilarious and I need to find it on DVD. If anyone knows where I could get the entire series, email me.

Here are some clips of Brian Posehn bringing the funny and a clip from "3 South."

Mitch Fatel Is A Funny Dude

90% of my posts are about sports, but sometimes I notice something in music or entertainment that I have to write about. My friend Xenia got my hooked on this comedian named Mitch Fatel. She said that she just caught a show in Arizona and her face hurt from laughing so hard. I decided that I had to check him out, so I downloaded one of his albums and I listened to it twice in the first day, it was great. He's coming to the Funny Bone here in Columbus, OH from October 1st - 4th and tickets range from $10-15 bucks. I can't believe that they are that cheap, since Harland Williams is there next weekend and they are $25 bucks.

I've heard great things about the Columbus Funny Bone. They get a lot of the headlining acts and their calendar is full of great comedians week after week. Andy Dick was there about a year ago and he was arrested for pissing on some girl, or something to that nature. I'm guessing that wasn't part of his normal act, but I could be wrong. I think I would rather be pissed on by Andy Dick than to watch an episode of "News Radio."

Back to the subject, check out Mitch Fatel on his Comedy Central special, "Mitch Fatel Is Magical" on September 18, or go out and buy his CD, "Super Retardo." Here are a few YouTube clips of his performances.
