Pop Pilgrims!

The web series I co-host for the Onion AV Club, Pop Pilgrims is now live! Most of mine have already "dropped" so to speak, but there's a new one every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for a few more weeks. My Chicago episodes will be some of the last to air, so there's still some new stuff to come.

If you haven't heard me ramble about it on my social websites, the premise is that I fly around the country to different pop culture landmarks from film, TV, music, and literature and interview an expert on the topic. Like the house from Texas Chainsaw Massacre outside of Austin, or the streets of Treme in New Orleans.

I only host half the episodes, so if you want to see those specifically check out Memphis, New Orleans, Austin, Seattle, Portland, Eugene, and Chicago. Although I do the introductory voice-over for every episode! That was neat.

Here's one of my absolute favorites, when I talked to Cobain friend and biographer Charles Cross outside Kurt's former home. Seattle may have been my favorite city to visit- my trip to Fantagraphics headquarters is the second one I embedded here. Holy shit did I consider dropping comedy to apply to be a comic book publishing intern. For a second.
