After the Supreme Court’s recent ruling, senators will have similar names as college football bowl games…
Background: we basically shot this edited it in one day. It stars Brian Barrett, Matt DeCoster, Nicole Shabtai, Devlyn Corrigan, Lauren Reeves, Brandon Bassham and Pete Schultz. And Pete Schultz did the heavy lifting – writing, filming and editing it.
Above is a reading from the acclaimed self-help book Get Psyched! The 7 Steps to a More Psyched Life. The selection is from Step 7: Get Psyched.
Also, the book has been getting good press so far. Check it out:

Time Out NY’s Joke of the Week
Guess what folks? Dr. Lanny Latham has written a book. Yes it’s a real book that will drastically change your life for the better. Of course Lanny couldn’t do it alone. Lanny’s neighbor and co-writer Will Hines was on hand to make sure every syllable was as 100% psyched as possible. There are several people to thank for making this happen (most or all are mentioned at the beginning of the book) but a huge thanks goes out to Damian Chadwick, who designed it.
Buy the book by logging onto Lanny’s website and choose which version you want:
Buy the Book, Change Your Life
Also, you can become a fan of Dr. Lanny on Facebook if you haven’t already:
Make 2010 the year of the psyched.

For the latest Improv Everywhere mission, I once again got really lost at a sporting event – this time at MSG at a Knicks-Hawks game. Click here to get the full rundown.
The stunt was covered by ESPN the Magazine. Check out the latest issue with Andre Johnson on the cover to read a nice write-up from Neil Janowitz (pg 40). Or just click here.
It was also written up by Will Leitch from NYMag. As well as SI.com, BoingBoing, Esquire, NBC NewYork, Gothamist, and was even up on the front page of MSN for a day.
Thanks to Mr. Charlie Todd, Matt Adams, Katie Sokoler, Chad Nicholson,, as well as Alex Scordelis, Cody Lindquist, Ben Rodgers, and Neil Janowitz for making it happen.
Stinson is back – reviewing the movie 2012 – this time with his good friend, Bobby Moynihan from SNL.
I’ll be performing in a big show this Thursday night with the sketch group 12 Angry Mascots. There will be sports related sketches performed, videos screened, as well as professional athletes on hand as guests. These guests include: All-Pro Jets cornerback Darrell Revis, Knicks starting point guard Chris Duhon, and from the Lingerie Football League (no joke) Majesty starting quarterback Krystal Gray.
Unfortunately, I don’t think Steve Phillips will be able to make it. BUT Heisman trophy winner Tim Tebow, just might make an appearance. Details:

Finally, here’s a little video I did with 12 Angry Mascots called ‘Collinsworth NFL 10′. Chris Collinsworth is not only taking over for John Madden in the broadcast booth, he’s also cornering the video game market as well.
On Sunday I participated in the latest Improv Everywhere mission involving the use of 2,000 “invisible dog” leashes.
One highlight while I was out walking my invisible dog:
Crazy Guy: That your dog?
Me: Yeah.
Crazy Guy: Oh. I use Zoloft.
I guess he meant that instead of walking around with an invisible dog leash, he chooses to heavily medicate himself with Zoloft. Hey, whatever it takes.
The event has already been covered by several places including Gothamist, where you can see my punk-ass mug on the front page. As per usual most of the comments on Gothamist are highly negative and snarky, except for this nice one from The Klaus. Thanks Klaus! Also props to Katie Sokoler and Chad Nicholson for taking the photos, as well as Charlie Todd of course for organizing it.
My main man Mitch Magee recently got hired by Funny or Die. So he’s moving to LA soon for a brief stint. Big congrats to Mitch.
Above is the latest video I did with Mitch as part of his “Bartender” series. Probably the first time in my life where I’ve gotten to use the phrase “well greased ramekin” and “define my trade” in the same sentence.
Brand new video from Bobby Chicago where Comedian Jeff Foxworthy uses his charm and keen observation to infiltrate the Taliban.
I know all of my posts of late are all videos. But that’s basically all my life is these days. So please watch these videos and spread ‘em around, so that I can move on to more interesting things in my life and then write about that.
The highly prolific LandlineTV asked me to play Don Draper in their latest vid, Mad Men in 60 Seconds. And I happily obliged.
And just for the record, I’m a huge fan of the show.
