The podcast makes a solid return when Alec sits down with the funny and musical Pat Godwin. The merits of musical comedy are discussed among other things like pop culture and family life as a comic.
Taking a break from editing my own film so I can relax… by editing clips from Community. Made this to support the show while it’s on hard times. Mad props to Dan Harmon.
Here is the official trailer for The Day Job, the independent film I co-wrote/directed/starred in.
This summer, I co-directed a movie that I co-wrote with a friend. It’s called THE DAY JOB and it’s about a group of bank robbers that mess up a heist and get hired to work at the bank instead. I’m immensely proud of it, especially considering that the budget was nearly non-existent and everyone involved worked their asses off non-stop for the entire summer.
Here’s one of the posters:
We’re working on setting up the premiere date, but it’s definitely going to be playing at a local theater in Kalamazoo. I’m unsure what’s going to happen with it after that, but for now that’s our main focus. We’ll definitely be making DVD’s as well as shopping it around at whatever festivals we can. Check out thedayjob.tumblr.com for more information.
Let me just say that Ocarina of Time 3D is one of the greatest things to ever happen to me. Drew this in celebration.
Nearly done with Wind Waker now. People gotta’ stop hatin’ on Wind Waker, that shit is gorgeous.
Here is footage from when I competed in TBS’ Rooftop Comedy College Competition for the second time.
We lost.

Alec talks to another Last Comic Standing finalist: the hilarious Myq Kaplan. A rapid-fire conversation about everything from presidents to preferred shirt colors. But first, a chat with one of Michigan’s most promising comedic minds, Trevor Smith.
Just last week I was lucky enough to see Maria Bamford, one of my all-time comedy heroes, perform live in Ann Arbor. We talked for a bit after the show (didn’t get her to do the podcast – sorry!) and she could not have been nicer. (Same goes for her opener, Cameron Esposito, whom I highly recommending checking out.) All in all, it was a great night and I thought I owed something back to Maria. Unfortunately, all I could think to do was draw her as a videogame character. Then I drew two more of my favorite comedians in the same style.
I plan on doing more soon, so sit tight.
Alec talks to Last Comic Standing finalist Roy Wood Jr. about the state of the comedy business and what it’s like for comics just starting out. But first, you have to bear through a grueling chat with the admittedly hilarious Michigan comic, Mike O’Keefe.
In the debut episode, Alec Robbins sits down with the hilarious touring comic Pat Dixon, from Comedy Central, Craig Ferguson, and the Bob & Tom Show. But first, a conversation with Michigan up-and-comer and good friend, Chris Raby.
