“I’ve got my curse level.”
– Kool Keith
Kool Keith is legally insane. If this interview doesnt prove that to you, just go out and grab his latest album, The Return of Dr. Octagon. Dr. Octagon is a persona that Kool first used ten years ago and since then hes gotten his degree in crazy so it was time to kick it up a notch.

“I love SuicideGirls.”
– Sara Quin of Tegan and Sara
To fans of Tegan & Sara, it may seem like it’s been a quick rise from unknown indie band to one with a respectable following. But to Tegan & Sara it has been a long, hard road with many artistic rewards along the way. One of their most recent rewards is that they are finally putting out a DVD. It’s Not Fun, Don’t Do It!, features all of their music videos, a full length concert, the making of their video for “So Jealous,” and endless commentary by these talkative sisters/singers.

“[Hellboy] will become more philosophical.”
– Mike Mignola
With the creation of his character, Hellboy, Mike Mignola has spawned a world of projects including animated and live action movies, as well as a wealth of brilliant merchandising. Mignola first broke into the business over 20 years ago doing comic books, which will always be his first love. He has been crafting Hellboy stories for over ten years and is just now reaching the middle part of Hellboy’s life. Hellboy continually evolves into a more complex and interesting character, and Mignola’s infinite ideas are highlighted in the new trade paperback that offers the collection of the Hellboy miniseries “The Third Wish” and “The Island.”

“I like the alternative dark humor.”
– Paul Lieberstein
I love talking to guys like Paul Lieberstein. Currently he is a writer/producer/actor on the hit NBC sitcom The Office. As Toby, the laconic and divorced human resources director of Dunder Mifflin he is constantly butting heads with the idiotic Dunder Mifflin Regional Manager Michael Scott [played by Steve Carell]. Lieberstein is already responsible for many of the series best episodes such as “Dwight’s Speech” which includes Dwights Hitleresque rant and “The Client” where the office workers have a table read of Michael’s secret screenplay. But I first saw Lieberstein’s name as a writer/producer on the primetime cartoon series King of the Hill which is one of the greatest shows ever on television.

“I just try to be myself.”
– Joan Jett
Joan Jett is the ultimate leather-clad, punk-rock icon. Her early hits were instrumental to the evolution of punk rock, and especially to its crossover into mainstream music. After over 25 years in the business, this bad ass composer is still rocking out with her band, The Blackhearts. I got a chance to talk with Jett about their latest album, Sinner, while she was out on the road with the Warped Tour.

“I don’t really belong to anything.”
– Hardy Fox
I may have interviewed The Residents the other day, but one can never be sure. I spoke to Hardy Fox who is a founding member of The Cryptic Corporation, a company created in 1976 to help the band. He may or may not be a member of The Residents, but the people of earth will never know. One thing we do know is that the Residents have always broken new ground and continue to do the same in the 21st century with podcasting. You can now purchase The Residents serial radio drama, called River of Crime, on CD.

“We had to do this 100% legal.”
– Kirby Dick
Kirby Dick has fired a massive cannonball in the war against censorship. It’s called This Film Is Not Yet Rated, and it came into being when the Oscar nominated documentary filmmaker decided to call the Motion Picture Association of America out on their bullshit lies. He hired a private investigator to determine who the MPAA ratings and appeals boards are actually composed of. It turns out that almost nothing the MPAA has said about their members is true.
