In January of 2007, the late Heath Ledger met with Issac Brock of Modest to discuss a concept he came up with for their yet to be released song "King Rat." More than 2 years later, the video which Ledger began directing before he passed has been completed by film and music company The Masses (which Ledger was a partner of).

Enjoy "King Rat" directed by Heath Ledger above.

Gonna get a vodka soda with a lime.

Here is a strange and odd song that is incredibly catchy and uplifting. It's called "You Push, I'll Go" and it is by the artist Baby Dayliner.

You can hear more of his music over at his MySpace.

8449 Podcast - Interview with Jenny Powers

Last week I had the opportunity to spend some time with the incredible Jenny Powers. Even though the things she says are not for the faint of heart, she is honest and real and 100% American, so you have to respect that.

Enjoy my interview with Miss Powers above.

haven't i seen you somewhere before?

Celebration

Two Beldings in one building one of which is balding.

Waking up to a reunited cast of Saved by the Bell on the cover of People Magazine is like a dream come true, but I can't help but be bittersweet about it. Where is Screech? It's almost as if he never even existed. I'm dying to pick up the issue to find out why he was not asked to be a part of this cover story. So what if he made a porn and tried to sell shirts to stop his house from being foreclosed, that doesn't mean he needs to be excluded from the one thing that made him famous. And where is Dennis Haskins (a.k.a. Principal Richard Belding)?

And remember when everyone was talking about how Tiffani Thiessen was too busy to appear on Jimmy Fallon with the rest of the cast? Well, clearly that isn't so as she not only is on the cover of People, but also created this hilarious video on Funny or Die about the whole situation.

She's still got it.

they're just jealous.
