Here’s to the fine art of letting other people do the interviews, then subsequently linking to said conversations.
Today, we’ve got a Super Deluxe artist two-fer: Devin Flynn in Vice London and Chelsea Peretti in a blog called Canned Thinking.
Won’t you please enjoy the official new overlooked favorite video of the Super Deluxe blog?

Aaand it’s brought to you by the beautiful minds of Jon Benjamin, Patrick Borelli and Matt Hall.
We’re as weirded out by the sheer improbability of it as you are (if you couldn’t tell from the all-caps exclamation overkill). After all, anybody can hack a Web site these days AND claim to be a thetan-loving, S.P.-hating member of the hottest cult on the planet right now.
But if an actual Scientologist is indeed responsible for sabotaging the personal website of Super Deluxe darlings Waco & Roger, Waco O’Guinn says they’re ready to do battle. Battlefield Earth style.
Here’s the story: on Monday, Waco & Roger found out that www.damnshow.com was down and that the majority of their files had been deleted. The hacker also left a nice, cheery message in his wake: “SEEK THE FUNDAMENTAL TRUTH.” This all followed a flurry of email complaints over the weekend about their latest video for us, Tom Cruise’s Scientology Video: Deleted Scenes.
Among all those emails were these particularly ominous threats:
Freaky deaky, huh? Now get this: Waco says just today they received yet another rather suspicious email. Apparently, some person claiming to be an Associated Press reporter from the “Burbank, California investigative office” reached out to them about the story, wanting to know their IP address and whatnot. Waco said they brushed off the request when they noticed it came from a Gmail account!
Oh, the possibilities. Our heads just reel at the thought of some OT Level 3 Scientologist sitting behind a PC in Los Angeles, scouring the Internet for haters (which there are more of than ever these days) and retaliating like a scorned little 13-year-old cyberpunk.
As for Waco & Roger, they’re as perplexed as you might expect. They were able to get www.damnshow.com back up pretty easily and recover their plundered goods. But they still have no idea who-shot-who-in-the-proverbial-what-now. Waco says he knows it could of been just some random asshole or even a friend playing a prank. But either way, he says they need to learn not to mess with O.P.P and mind their own K.S.W.
So, there we were, eating our lunch at the local food court when we decided to get a few reaction shots to Bird Poops In Mouth. You know, just to “reach out to the community” and see what they make of the viral sensation. We didn’t even bother trying to explain that the whole thing is a front for FRUMONDAH© SODA, THE TAST FROM AFRICA©.
Ah, always soooo delicious.
Anyways, after filming a few rather tepid reaction videos, we stumbled upon our new hero, Paul Hu. No kidding. Not only was this professional photographer and Chinese restaurant proprietor gracious enough to play along with us, he freakin’ OUT-BIRD POOPED OUR BIRD POOP VIDEO!! Indeed, the servant became the master real quick. Just watch.
Don’t forget to drop by Paul Hu’s lovely MySpace page (for all your photography needs).
It’s been a long seven-week break. A lot has happened since they were last on Internet air. Christmas. New Year’s. Heath Ledger. But now we can finally breathe easy again (and make crappy Photoshop reminders). Because the boys are back in the proverbial town!!
And word is, Super Deluxe’s new favorite Nigerian cola, FRUMONDAH©, will be making a special appearance in tonight’s broadcast. FRUMONDAH©. SMILE, HAPPY, NICE©.
Now, we don’t want to throw cold water on their big return, but we can’t help but notice that all does not appear to be well among the Tim And Eric Nite Live faithful. It seems some think the hosts should part ways, although they’re not in agreement about which one is the weaker link. Perhaps T&E fans sense a growing discord between the chameleon-like duo that we’re simply not privy to. Witness:
Hmm. Kind of confusing. And then came Super Deluxe member Itchy Pinworm’s brutal tirade.
Ouch. To make matters worse, the beloved Tim And Eric Nite Live regular, David Liebe Hart, seems to have been caught in the crossfire of all the Haterade drinking.
Whoa! What’s with all this David Liebe Hate? Just for that particularly nasty comment, SteWiePukes, we are going to repost our recent podcast, Tim And Eric Nite Live: Best Of The Regulars, and celebrate Mr. Liebe Hart’s contributions to the entertainment world and humanity at large.
Specifically, the one that got all big on the Internets over the last few days that shows a Channel 7 Action News reporter catching a big turd in his mouth from a Canadian brown finch? Looks kind of like this…
Or maybe we should rephrase that question: have you seen any good bird poop videos lately that show what appears to be a Channel 7 Action News reporter catching a big turd in his mouth from a Canadian brown finch but, in turn, reveals itself to be an elaborate advertisement brought to you by our very own Bob Odenkirk and Leon & Andy for Nigerian Sunshine International’s most delicious soda, FRUMONDAH©! Looks kind of like this…
We gotta say, Bob and Leon & Andy sure went out on a limb with this one, but we really believe it’s worth it. Have you tasted FRUMONDAH© soda yet? We’re so hooked on THE TASTE FROM AFRICA©, we’ve decorated our home page with it. Why, it’s soda. It’s sunshine. It’s yellow AND it’s good time. Oh, and it looks kind of like this…
Don’t make any plans for next week. Especially at 10 PM EST on Tuesday January 29th. Our ombudsman David Levin explains why.
God bless you, Devin Flynn. For you and only you and your Y’all So Stupid insanity understand that grillless teeth are old school teeth. And old school teeth wear Kangols and quote Boogie Down Productions. In fact, you made us so nostalgic for 1988, we’re rewatching “My Philosophy” on the hour and pining for the company of Fab 5 Freddy (who directed this video) and Yo! MTV Raps.
Maybe it’s all the weird politics going on. Maybe it’s the impending doom and gloom in the world financial markets. Maybe it’s the whole Heath Ledger thing and all the odd online memorials to him (who are these people? Did they know him?). But today, we just felt a little blue and needed a pick-me-up. Something fun and silly and innocent. Something like a mime.
So, we Googled one. And guess what we got? This horrible, horrible abomination.
Just six days. Six short days until Tim And Eric Nite Live return.
In the meantime, please don’t do anything stupid. Just use this time to savor all the random weirdos that regularly hang out on their show.
