Here’s me and Tim Heidecker completing a trilogy of silly calls. If you heard Sandblasted and We Share a Brain, well this one is even more juvenile. I mean, really juvenile. Anyway, we had lots of fun… Don’t know why my grandfather voice was the same as my Margaret Thatcher one, but ho hum…

Yes, you all remember the incredible Maxine Swaby with her classic, Pardon Me. Frankly, how could you forget? Well, since I posted the video last week, I’ve had many people filming themselves singing the song while watching Maxine sing, which has been hilarious. So, now, let me introduce our youngest Maxine Swaby wannabee: Esmé… Thanks [...]
There’s so much great stuff here: the silences, the clip-clopping of shoes and best of all, mispellinks… And is it just me, or does the whole thing sort of feel like a long lead up to a porn scene?

OK, the other day I posted a silly phone call I made with the very silly Tim Heidecker (‘We Share a Brain‘). Well, here’s another one we did that night. I should warn you that this call might be a bit crap, but for some reason it makes me laugh. Maybe it’s the sheer weirdness [...]
You may remember me posting this gem from the Soviet Union. Well now here’s another one…. Nice one @discoelectro .
I’ve just come back from LA, where I saw a lot of my buddy, Tim Heidecker of the amazing Tim and Eric. We’ve always talked of making silly phone calls together, and the other night we had a go. So, are you ready for maximum infantilism…? If you missed my US Robin Cooper podcasts, here’s [...]

Zut alors… Merci @discoelectro. La force est avec toi.
