Michael Phelps reviews TV shows, films, and current events using his unique eight gold medal rating system.
Bassham/Schultz Productions came through big here (that’s Pete Schultz and Brandon Bassham). Filmed at Schultz Studios in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn – the busiest production house in the east coast.
Remember Permanent Nutface Gary? In case you don’t, he’s the dude whose face froze in the middle of an orgasm. And here is some footage of Permanent Nutface Gary doing his patented Al Pacino impression. Look at the range on that guy!
Thanks to Ryan Schultz for filming it and Brandon Bassham for editing it together. The footage was taken from a Special Benefit for Permanent Nutface Gary held at the UCB Theatre. Ben Rodgers is in the background waiting to take calls from possible donors who wished to put an end to Permanent Nutface Syndrome. Nobody called.
I’ve got a show this Saturday night at midnight at the UCB Theatre called The Freedom Network. It’s gonna be great. Come check it out if you feel so inclined (and are in the greater Tri-State area.) It stars Dave Thunder, Tony Carnevale, Matt DeCoster, Andy Rocco and myself. Word on the street is that Jeff Foxworthy might also make an appearance.

Freedom.
It’s been a busy week for me. Last weekend I participated in the Del Close Marathon. It was an amazing time – Brooke Shields even made an appearance and seemed totally cool and on board for anything – as reported accurately here and as reported hilariously inaccurately here. Most of my shows were well after midnight, including a show called The Foxworthy Brothers – with Will Hines and Birch Harms – as seen below. I forgot to bring fake mustaches for everybody (an important part of the show). So Will and Birch used black tape for their fake mustaches. I didn’t forget to bring the awesome mullet wigs, though.
Bottom-line: I didn’t get a lot of sleep over the weekend. On top of that, my sleeping schedule has been disrupted even further by The Olympics. I don’t know why, but I’ve always been a nut-ball for the Olympics. It probably started when I went to the ‘84 Olympics in LA with my Dad. My nut-ball zeal was heightened even more when some college buddies and I volunteered for the ‘96 Games in Atlanta. My sister, who was in charge of the actual medals at the games, got us jobs at the Olympic Stadium as “Coordinators for the Look of the Game”. We were given uniforms and full-access passes and told to report to our boss. But our boss, who we never met, got fired right before the games started. So we basically had nothing to do. We would go to the Olympic Stadium every single day in our uniforms and full-access passes and just watch all of the events for free.
In addition, we would hit up every other sporting event we could – such as the Women’s Gold Medal Soccer match in Athens. We even attended some non-sporting events – we were right next to Centennial Olympic Park at a James Brown concert when the bomb went off. At the end of the two week extravaganza, we ended up selling our Olympic uniforms to tourists for a few hundred bucks each. So we made a profit out of the whole deal. All for doing nothing. We were douchebags.
This year’s Olympics haven’t disappointed either. The Men’s Swimming 4×100 Freestyle Relay Race had to be one of the best sporting events I’ve ever seen. Right? Or is it just me? And last night, I ended up staying up past 1 am watching Women’s Gymnastics. I told myself I would only watch a few minutes and go to bed. But I ended up being glued to the TV for hours. And I didn’t even think I liked Women’s Gymnastics. But what can I say? I guess I’ll always have Olympic Fever. No uniforms to sell this year though. Unless you count my fake mustache that I’ve been wearing as I cheer all of the athletes on. But I don’t know if I’m ready to sell that baby just yet. I might need it.
Another plug for Get Psyched and Dr. Lanny Latham. I know every post now is about Lanny, but that’s what the people want, right? Poor Permanent Nutface Gary has been neglected of late. Don’t you fret, Permanent Nutface Gary, we’ll get to you in a little bit. For now, it’s Lanny’s turn.
Lanny and Get Psyched have been featured on BuzzFeed. Check it out by clicking here or the images below. See if you can solve the equation below as well.

Pretty cool huh? Dr. Lanny’s exercises were featured. As well as all of his videos. Thanks to Buzzfeed and Eliot Glazer.
Dr. Lanny Latham has a new infomercial out. It includes footage from real seminars he did at real offices in New York. That means you should hire him. Pronto. Still not convinced? Why not? What’s wrong with you?Okay fine. Check this out:
If that’s not enough psychedness for you, Dr. Lanny Latham has a very important seminar this Wednesday night at the UCB Theatre.
