  • ISIS Agent, Sterling Archer, Launches His Pirate King Theme FX Cartoon Series Archer Gets Its First Hip Hop Video Courtesy of Brooklyn Duo, Drop It Steady
    ISIS agent, Sterling Archer, launches his Pirate King Theme FX Cartoon Series Archer Gets Its First Hip Hop Video courtesy of Brooklyn duo, Drop it Steady Fans of the FX cartoon series Archer do not need to be told of its genius. The show was created by many of the same writers who brought you the Fox series Arrested Development. Similar to its predecessor, Archer has built up a strong and loyal fanbase. As with most popular cartoons nowadays, hip-hop artists tend to flock to the animated world and Archer now has it's hip-hop spin off. Brooklyn-based music duo, Drop It Steady, created a fun little song and video sampling the show. The duo drew their inspiration from a series sub plot wherein Archer became a "pirate king" after his fiancée was murdered on their wedding day in front of him. For Archer fans, the song and video will definitely touch a nerve as Drop it Steady turns the story of being a pirate king into a forum for discussing recent break ups. Video & Music Download: http://www.mediafire.com/?bapupbzlw1tzt5a Official Website: http://www.dropitsteady.com Drop it Steady on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/dropitsteady About Drop it Steady: Some say their music played a vital role in the Arab Spring of 2011. Others say the organizers of Occupy Wall Street were listening to their demo when they began to discuss their movement. Though it has yet to be verified, word that the first two tracks off of their upcoming EP, The Most Interesting EP In The World, were recorded at the ceremony for Prince William and Katie Middleton and are spreading through the internets like wild fire.

Not quite aghast, but definitely shocked. For one thing, Sterling has never been much of a reader. In fact, to the best of my knowledge, the only things he ever read growing up were pornographic comic books (we used to call them “Tijuana bibles,” but I’m sure that’s no longer considered polite, what with all these immigrants driving around every- where in their lowriders, listening to raps and shooting all the jobs).

  • The Embroiled Detective: Noir and the Problems of Rationalism in Los Amantes De Estocolmo ERIK LARSON, BRIGHAM YOUNG UNIVERSITY
    Polifonía The Embroiled Detective: Noir and the Problems of Rationalism in Los amantes de Estocolmo ERIK LARSON, BRIGHAM YOUNG UNIVERSITY n Ross Macdonald’s novel, The Far Side of the Dollar (1964), Macdonald’s serialized hard-boiled detective, Lew Archer, is asked “Are you a policeman, or I what?” Archer responds: “I used to be. Now I'm a what,” (40). Despite its place in a tradition of glib and humorous banter, typical of the smug, hard-boiled detective, Archer’s retort has philosophical relevance. It marks a different sort of detective who is not sure about himself or the world around him, nor does he enjoy the epistemological stability afforded to a Dupin or a Sherlock Holmes. In other words, it references a noir detective. In noir, the formerly stable investigator of the classic tradition is eclipsed by an ominous question mark. Even if the novel or film attempts a resolution at the end, we, as readers and spectators, are left with unresolved questions. It is often a challenge to clearly map the diverse motivations and interests of the many private investigators, femme-fatales and corrupt patricians that populate the roman or film noir. Whether directly or indirectly, noir questions and qualifies notions of order, rationalism and understanding. Of course, in the typical U.S. model, such philosophical commentary is present on a latent level. While novels by Chandler or Hammett implicitly critique and qualify rationalism, the detective rarely waxes philosophical. As noir literature is read and appropriated by a more postmodern, global audience, authors from other regions such as Latin America and Spain play with the model and use it as a vehicle for more explicit philosophical speculation.

  • Aisha Tyler: Interactive Awards Emcee Finds Perfection in Imperfections
    Aisha Tyler: Interactive Awards Emcee Finds Perfection in Imperfections $% E&'(% G)*+), isha Tyler is smarter than most of us, and the comedian, pod- caster, movie/TV/voice/game actor (her credits include FX’s Archer, XIII, Babymakers and halo: reach) and host of !e Talk can induce a dizzying sense of inadequacy. Fortunately, that feeling is eclipsed by the relief she instills that there is hope for humanity after ROBERT ADAM MAYER all. Her “Girl on Guy” podcast (named iTunes’ “Best New Comedy Podcast” in 2011) is a frank, profound and ribald commentary on men’s obsessions hosted by a “guy’s girl” who was raised by a single dad and routinely delights an audience of 60 percent men. Tyler puts it frankly: “I want permission to be whatever I am. Men should be free to be who they are.” Her guests are people such as Eugene Mirman, Anthony Bourdain and Reggie Watts. “Girl on Guy”—originally a TV show she says no one wanted—is now in its third season and has sur- passed !ve million downloads. "is is quite a success on many levels, including the obvious. “Overall, there’s a huge gender gap in podcasting,” Tyler explains. “I’m probably one of the only women in the top 10. I think the dearth of women in podcasting re#ects the dearth of women in comedy gener- ally.” Of course, she adds, “It’s only helpful. Whatever latent biases in the !eld of comedy lead to women leveraging tech, it still has to be good.” It is logical to compare “Girl on Guy” to Marc Maron’s shame-spiral comedy podcast, and Maron has been a major role model.
