Hurricane Sandy- don’t even get me started. Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that I am on the new episode of WTFPod, which is to say Episode 330. This episode was taped live in Los Angeles a few weeks ago at Trepany House with guests me, Moby, TJ Miller, Aries Spears,, Jake Fogelnest, Mike Bobbitt, and Jim Earl. And, of course, host Marc Maron. You can listen to the whole thing right here. And you should.
Still street,

That’s right- episode 50 of my incredible podcast is here with guns blazing as I sit down for a record 4th time with my dear friend, comedian, writer, actress, and musician Tig Notaro to discuss her uneventful life, her new album “Live” (which I’m told is about dating and shopping mostly), and the new rock band we are totally forming. At one point, Tig’s writing partner, comedian, and musician Kyle Dunnigan wanders in and things getting even crazier. He is in our band too. As if all of that is not enough, my secretary Shaina Feinberg checks in and Ian Ball delivers his Hot Jamz as usual like a mofo. Also, you can hear the song I wrote for my favorite magazine for teenage girl’s, Rookie. Listen to the whole thing right here. Okay, great, thanks.
Thanks,
Dave Hill

A while back, I had a dream that I wrote a song called “Life Is Mean When You’re 17” for Rookie Magazine, my favorite magazine for teenage girls (and me). Recently, they asked me to actually write them a theme song in real life, so I decided to go ahead and write the song I dreamed about (though I ended up tweaking the title slightly in the end). You can listen to it here. It’s super primitively recorded on my computer, but hopefully the spirit will carry you through the rough recording quality.
In other news, recently I was honored to be asked by Andy Shernoff from the Dictators to appear in his video for his awesome and hilarious new song “Let’s Get the Band Back Together.” It’s an honor to work with people I have admired for a long, long time, so this was a real treat for me. You can watch it above. I hope you enjoy the hell out of it.
Still street,

Hi. Recently, it was brought to my attention that my Black Metal Dialogues site, the one all about my legendary band Witch Taint, was totally down. Well, now, thanks to modern technology and also me spending 900 hours on the phone with customer service, the site is back up and the world is a better place. You can see for yourself here.
Dark regards,
Dave Hill

Earlier this week, I saw Morrissey at Radio City Music Hall and it was awesome. I wrote a dumb review of the show for Brooklyn Vegan that you can read right here. People really hate it, which amuses/torments me endlessly. I hope you enjoy it.
Love,

Hi. I am incredibly excited, honored, and nervous to tell you that this coming Wednesday, October 17 at 6pm, I will be joining the great Chris Elliott at Barnes and Noble in Tribeca to celebrate the release of his insanely hilarious new book The Guy Under the Sheets: The Unauthorized Autobiography, a book that has brought me a tremendous amount of joy and that you should buy immediately unless you hate laughing until you nearly pee your pants. As you surely already know, Chris Elliott is a comedic genius and a handsome man and this event is not to be missed. You can get the full scoop here. See you there.

Recently, I joined forces with the official Official Comedy YouTube channel to launch a series called “Dave Hill: Swing Voter.” Since I’m from Ohio and all (a swing state!), the idea is that I’m gonna go out there and find out exactly what’s going on in the lead-up to this year’s presidential election so I can better informed as to exactly whom I should vote for. A few videos into things, this is already shaping up to be one of the greatest web series of all-time. You can tune in here now and often. And watch my exciting trailer video for the whole thing above.
Doing my part,
Dave Hill

Hi. It’s Dave again. Recently, I sat down and told a story for Vulture and UCB Comedy’s new animated series “Pop Culture Memory Lane.” My story is about the time I ended up taking a crap next to one of my heroes, Rob Halford from Judas Priest. They animated it so beautifully I’m almost not embarrassed by the story anymore. I hope you enjoy it so much.

If you would like to listen to me talking on the popular radio program This American Life, you have just hit a street called Easy because I was on the show this past weekend for their “Send a Message” episode. You can listen by going here. My story is about getting attacked with a bottle of pee. It appears in Act 2. I hope you enjoy it so much.
Love,
