Michael Ian Black and Michael Showalter Live Blog During an All-New Episode of 'Michael & Michael Have Issues' Airing Wednesday, August 5 at 10:30 P.M Michael Ian Black and Michael Showalter Live Blog During an All-New Episode of 'Michael & Michael Have Issues' Airing Wednesday, August 5 at 10:30 P.M. ET/PT Viewers Are Invited To Leave Comments on The Blog Page of www.michaelandmichaelhaveissues.com www.michaelandmichaelhaveissues.com Features Blogs, Tweets, Video Updates, Messages From The "Michaels," Original Drawings And Exclusive Videos, Reviews Of New Episodes And Video Highlights After Each Premier Episode NEW YORK, Aug. 4 -- Michael Ian Black and Michael Showalter will participate in a half-hour live blog session during an all-new episode of "Michael & Michael Have Issues" on Wednesday, August 5 at 10:30pm. ET/PT. The Michael and Michael blog at www.michaelandmichaelhaveissues.com. serves as home for this event, where viewers can follow the "Michaels" live blog and leave comments on the site to communicate with them while the show is airing. The all-new episode of "Michael & Michael Have Issues" titled "Pulling Your Weight" features Black leaving the brunt of the workload to Showalter. "Michael & Michael Have Issues" stars Black and Showalter in a new twist on narrative and sketch comedies that features the long-time comedic partners as the hosts of their own fictitious sketch show. In the seven-episode series, sketches will be interspersed throughout the narrative thread of each episode. Behind-the-scenes of the show-within-a-show, viewers will get a first-hand look at issues, both big (in an attempt to broaden their appeal, the guys turn their show into a frat house spectacle) and small (the two Michaels fight over the approval of a teenage intern who is writing an article about them for his high school newspaper) that the two misguided stars wrestle with as they confront their own issues of insecurity and jealousy as each attempts to undermine the other. Other issues in the series include roommate rivalry when the "Michaels" secure a college gig, playing cupid for an unlucky-in-love co-worker and what birthday gift to give the boss who has everything. Credits for "Michael & Michael Have Issues" include Michael Ian Black, Michael Showalter, Jim Biederman ("Whitest Kids U Know," "I'm With Busey") and Lou Wallach as executive producers and Jim Sharp and Christina Lee as executives in charge of production for COMEDY CENTRAL. Viewers can log onto www.michaelandmichaelhaveissues.com and follow along with Michael and Michael online as they use their blog, tweets and videos to find new ways to do what they do best - get on each other's nerves. Black and Showalter and members of the cast and crew provide updates from the set along with messages and thoughts from the "Michaels," as well as original drawings and videos. Each week, the site will feature video previews of new episodes, video highlights of some favorite moments immediately after each episode premieres and exclusive videos from the duo. Fans will also be able to test their smarts with a great new "Michael & Michael Have Issues" word game. For viewers on the go, "Michael & Michael Have Issues" will be available on their mobile phones with a Web site, streaming video and blogs.

  • Eight Comedians; One Chronic Mental Illness
    Eight comedians; one chronic mental illness When it comes to depression, everyone’s story is different. But a lot of time, the stories can be pretty similar. In this podcast, there are common themes that rise up in conversations with comedians. There was a pretty specific age range during which most people first felt depression. Some were as young as five, some as old as 21. But for a lot of them, it hit right down the middle: during the cracking voice years, the unexpected hair years. Jake Weisman, standup comic Jake is based in LA and one of the writers and stars of Hampton Deville, an up and coming sitcom on Comedy Central. “The first time I had depression was when puberty hit in seventh or eighth grade. I remember feeling very dark thoughts all the time. Like not wanting to be alive. I remember being kind of an asshole. I hated myself so much. I remember every day, having this layer of sludge over my brain. I felt stupid and unworthy of everything I had and I kind of hated myself. I would be really sarcastic to people.” Awareness of how much you could hate yourself comes up a lot. Also, how much you could detach from the world. Sometimes how much you didn’t want to be there anymore. Another theme that kept coming up was confusion about what was going on. You don’t have life experience to identify it. You’ve never felt anything like this before. Mike Drucker, standup and a writer Mike has worked on Jimmy Fallon, Saturday Night Live, he’s co-writer of an upcoming Bill Nye’s show for Netflix.

[Music fades out.] 00:00:11 Music Transition “Huddle Formation” from the album Thunder, Lightning, Strike by The Go! Team. 00:00:19 Jesse Host It’s Bullseye. I’m Jesse Thorn. Michael Ian Black maybe has one of Thorn the most varied resumes in comedy. He was of course a founding member of the comedy groups the State and Stella. He’s a beloved TV host and panelist. He’s acted in dozens of movies, appeared on even more TV shows and podcasts. He’s also a prolific writer. Since 2009, he’s written almost a dozen books—some for children, some for grownups. And then there’s his latest, which is kind of for both. A Better Man is, as the title calls it, a mostly serious letter to his son who’s college aged now. In it, Black talks about his own childhood and the lessons he wishes he’d been taught—the stuff you’d expect to see in a memoir. But then he digs deeper, asking what it means to be a man in today’s world. He talks about mass shootings and suicides, both of which are disproportionately committed by men. He talks about toxic masculinity and what it means to be a man in its absence. Our good friend and guest host, Carrie Poppy, recently read the book and she was so compelled by it, she decided to bring Michael on Bullseye to talk about it.

When a medical diagnosis forces him to realize he’s not getting any younger, he reexamines his life as a middle-aged guy—of course, in the deadpan wit and self-deprecating vignettes that have become trademarks of his humor. The alt-comedy take on getting older, Navel Gazing is a funny-because-it’s-true memoir about looking around when you’re forty and realizing that life is about more than receding hairlines and proving one’s manliness on Twitter—it’s about laughing at yourself.
