John Hodgman consults with the youngest person in the room to decided to decide what cultural references to keep in his act.
Got to see John Hodgman‘s new act on the road with Paul and Storm over at the Birchmere in Alexandria, Va. I’ve seen Hodgman perform before for his book tours, but after hearing about his new standup routine on WTF, I’ve been wanting to see it. Well DC is not that far away. Or at least not that far away for someone who used to drive for a living. As an added bonus Paul and Storm were performing there. I hadn’t seen them live since PAX. The one where everyone died from swine flu.
You should check out their show Learning Town.

It was really good though a little jarring at first that I had not read any of the material before hand, because it was all new. The only part from That Is All was the wine tasting bit.

Though wine doesn’t bring out the best in John Hodgman (yes, it does).

John Hodgman finished out the night by reprising his role as Ayn Rand from his performance on the Dead Authors Podcast with Paul F Tompkins.
