Hot Dog Eating Contest -- FOR KIDS!



Each year I wonder what it would be like it kids could be in the competitive eating contest.

This year, the dream becomes a reality.

My Man Adam Rifkin talks Vincent Price



A few months ago I did an on-camera interview with Adam Rifkin at the Backseat Film Festival. We hit it off, he loved Puppet Rodeo and he screened a very funny caveman comedy called "Homo Erectus" (aka National Lampoon's The Stoned Age.)

Months later Adam started doing commentary tracks for Trailers From Hell. His are some of the best on there. Like this video of Adam discussing Vincent Price as The Abominable Dr. Phibes.

We'll feature some classic and hard-to-find trailers this Friday at Kevin Geeks Out About Vincent Price!

Puppet Rodeo



My new Comedy Central/Atom web-pilot is up. PUPPET RODEO is the story of brave, misunderstood puppets who risk their lives riding dogs. Competitively. We shot this in November, but it's just going online now to cash-in on the popularity of Rodeo Season (no joke!)

Puppet Rodeo

It was a challenging shoot, since dogs don't take direction. But I got to work with some awesome animals -- and some very talented humans, including DP Jeremy Carr, Shooter Ryan Fidrick, Voice-Actors Mark Douglas and Karen Sneider, and Eric Hendricks who served as editor, co-producer and puppeteer. And the dudes at Charged who made the puppets and sets.

Ryan, Eric and Jeremy also worked on OLD PEOPLE NEWS.

Old People News

OLD PEOPLE NEWS was supposed to become a web-series, but then the economy tanked. Too bad, I loved writing for those characters and continue to come up with jokes for them.

Coming Soon...



My new short PUPPET RODEO played at Philadelphia's Backseat Film Festival where it won the award for Staff Favorite.

It's coming soon to Atom.com -- stay tuned for details.

The Backseat guys will be screening the Kevin Maher/TV Head classic
Family Dinner Party at their evening at the Philadelphia Cinefest.
