pablo funny

I’ve known Chris Hardwick for over a decade, which is just short of “since forever.” He was in a fraternity with my friend Cal, and Cal introduced him to our group of friends when I was sixteen or seventeen. Chris and I immediately hit it off, mostly because we have the exact same ultra-twisted sense of humor, and we’ve been friends ever since.
Over the years, Chris has grown into one of the most talented people I know (which, surprisingly, is saying a lot. It turns out that I know a lot of talented people.) He’s a brilliant comedy writer, and an incredibly talented stand-up performer.
But the reason I’m writing about him today is to share with the world his latest project, which made me gasp with astonishment and convulse with laughter: Rodeohead.
Yeah. Because his rock opera based on the movie Tron wasn’t enough, Chris made a bluegrass tribute to Radiohead.
Hey Chris, stop being so funny. It’s fucking up the comedy curve for the rest of the class, ya bastard.
PS Chris says, “would you mind terribly mentioning that this was done with mike phirman? this is definitely a hard ‘n phirm thing that i can’t remotely take all of the credit for. this has lived on phirman’s computer for the last year and i want him to know that he’s appreciated.
thank you a gajillion times,
your friend in time,
emmett “doc” brown

  10. Chris Hardwick is hilarious! I remember him from Singled Out and Shipmates (which pissed me off when it got cancelled; that was my favorite show!)
    Good luck to him… He rocks!

  14. Great site….of course I can’t seem to get it to work for me name/password wise…Lets all work overtime to get Wil that car….I now have a purpose in my otherwise dark,hopeless existence….I am greatful

  17. That Hardwick front picture was friggin awesome. I LOVED THE GREATEST AMERICAN HERO!!!!! I still have the outfit my mother made for me for Halloween when I was 4. Does anyone know where I could get copies of that series??? Dude, thank you for making my day!!!! Excellent.

  18. Wil,
    I visited the site and that was tooooooo funny! OK by this time next week you should be the proud owner of a Kia! Woo hoo! How do I get in on this deal? LOL!

  19. I saw Chris perform once in Westwood, he had me rolling on the floor he was so funny, seriously..best guy

  21. No offense Will, but it ain’t Hayseed Dixie — who do great bluegrass covers of Snoop’s Gin & Juice, AC/DC. etc.
    The thing is Rodeohead comes off as comedy (the whip SFX, etc).
    That’s Ok.
    But turning great songs (like radiohead’s) into a different genre and still making them work — well, that’s art.

  23. Anne,
    Enjoyed so much your article about Kris. She seems to have such a positive attitude about life.
    Nice picture of you and her; I love your turquoise bracelet.
    Freeman 🙂
    P.S. for Wil: I just heard on the news that Brian Bonsall (Alexander son of Worf son of Moag) was arrested for drunken driving. Too many Guinnesses.

  25. Wil,
    I don’t think I’ve ever seen a picture of your Mom. I’ve seen pictures of your Dad and Aunt Val in your photo gallery. Would you please post a picture of your Mom.
    Freeman 🙂
    P.S. I don’t eat chicken either.
