There has been late-breaking news that Matthew Sanchez, Philadelphia’s renound cinematographer will be podcasting along with Juan, Eric, and Nick. When prodded about speaking on the air, Sanchez remarked, “hey.. who said i don’t like podcasts? I’m doing one — what do you think of that?” This news hits appropriately as Sweaty Robot member Ben Davidow ships off to Los Angelos to pursue a career in Pornography and Waiting Tables.

We just released our new short “Rear Ended”. Check it out and leave a comment.

Ben is moving to LA. We partied hearty with him last night. Here is a picture, proving this event took place.

The website has been updated. It looks totally cool. Cooler than you at least. Keep a lookout for our new short film, “Rear Ended.”

We’re podcasting Monday night. This will be Ben’s last podcast on the east coast for a long time.

Eric and Juan pontificate on “Snakes on a Plane”, mice problems, Tenacious D trailer, Eric’s Haircut Story. Special guest Jud Drinker.

“Koopa,” a friend of ours from MySpace is the #1 Rando Sweaty Robot fan. We appreciate the comments.

We’ll be hittin’ you all up with a new podcast guest starring PIG STY’S Tim Collins. Shortly after that we’ll post SR’s new short film, “Rear Ended.”

It was great to meet you, guys from Broken Lizard. In the newest podcast (playable up top there…) you can hear the inside scoop about Beerfest (no spoilers), our side of the meeting you story, a review of Talledega Nights– fuck it, take a listen.

Also, our movie Shillers is going to be WAY more produced than something like “The Inadvertant Dog Threesome,” which we just made as a stupid, ‘hey, this might be funny.’ We’re shooting with the Panasonic HVX-200 with the 35mm lens adapter. It’s like a real deal thing, not some rinky dink bullshit.

Each of the shorts up there are very different. You want something insane and improv? Try “Future Music 2012.” You want something well shot and acted? “Best Friends Forever.” You want an inside joke gone wild? “Kerner’s Quick Lube.” How about an Award-Winning short? “Happy Birthday, Harris Malden.”

Okay, enough of that. Enjoy.

Movie Reviews: Beerfest & Talledega Nights, Meeting Broken Lizard, Girls’ Eyebrows, He-Man Stuff, Celebrity Headshots.

We talked about this autistic basketball team manager on the podcast. This is an amazing story that will make you cry.

What does everyone think of the new site design? Some things still have to be aligned correctly, and some other odds and ends need to be tied up, but this is it! Neat.

Another instalment of our podcast! Check it before you wreck it!

How does a guy like me end up with a snack like this? The snack machine at work. Here’s the story: I walk up to the snack machine looking for Veggie Crisps.

Alas, not a Veggie Crisp to be found. (For more on this snack, check out Podcast #13.) I didn’t feel like eating pretzels, so I checked for another healthy snack option. That’s when I zero in on the Wheatables.

Number A: Wheat. Gotta be healthy.
Second: It says Baked. Gotta be good for me.
Next on the List: There was something else deceiving. I don’t remember what it was.

Anyways, I get the snack and check out the Stats.

NINE (9) grams of fat and 200 calories. Doritos: 7g and 140.

Okay, here’s a problem. Doritos doesn’t tell you it’s healthy. It doesn’t want to be. Sure, they’re saying they have 0g Trans Fats on the package lately, but everyone know what they’re getting into with a Dorito.

It’s a snack, it’s bad. It’s arguably the best snack chip there is.

Wheatables on the other hand. Who knows?! It’s prancing around pretending to be healthy and it’s all trickery and lies.

Who makes this salty snack cracker treat? KEEBLER!! That’s what you get when little elves make your crackers. They make it with cookie stats! Come on!

As for how they taste? Delicious actually. As they should for the ridiculously high fatty, salty, caloric content! I’m not buying them again. Also, there was a pretty good amount in there for a 50 cent snack pack. They’re a little bit greasy for a cracker. If your mom put them out for a party, I’d eat them.

Really, I’d rather have these:

I read a great article about shaving. What I learned was: get an old school razor, a badger brush, and some fancy dancy shave cream. So far, I’ve gotten two out of three. Neither Pathmark nor Rite Aid had the shave creme.

My dad gave me his old razor and the guy at airport security disposed of the razor for me. Thank you Mr. Airport Security for disposing of my fifteen year old razor, I wasn’t going to use it anyways. It could have STD’s my dad contracted fifteen years ago and I don’t need that. I need NEW ones. He also gave me the brush, which is in pretty rough shape, but still works fine.

After showering, I lather the ol’ face and then brush upwards like the article says to do. You have to hold the razor at a WAY different angle than a disposable.

Wait, I’m going to write a tangent. Okay, my Mach 3 irritates my neck and face, that’s why I made the switch. I had to give this a try.

Crazy angle. And you don’t press down like with a regular razor, or you’ll filet your face off.

The Verdict: It works. My face is generally as smooth. My neck is less irritated. I can shave more often without tearing my face up. This is good. It actually worked.

How about some negativity after all this positive stuff? Sure! You have to shave slower. I probably take 1.5 times as much time as before. That’s the only negative.
