A note from Paul:
So I turn 40 tomorrow. (Hooray for me.) As it turns out, my devious (read: wonderful) wife planned a surprise party for me this past weekend. As part of this celebration, my life partner Storm put together this awesome birthday video for me.
While I’m never very good at sincerity, I genuinely wish to thank all our friends who took part, and the many more who couldn’t but sent their well-wishes. (Hey, Hodgman: still waiting on that pen you promised me) If a man must get a year older every 365 days (give or take), this is the way to do it.
And SUPER-THANKS to Storm, who spent a lot of time assembling this thing. Also: watch your back, Swarthy Stage-Left Man; you’re next.
So please enjoy; it’s about 19 minutes long, but well worth your time if you like funny things.
Thanks, everyone!

The seventy-sixthrd episode of our podcast, Paul and Storm Talk About Some Stuff for Five to Ten Minutes (On Average), is now online. And it’s a looooong one!
This week’s SOOPER-SIZED, extra-special episode: a rare “in the same room” podcast in (of all places) a casting office, along with good friends Kim Evey (producer of “The Guild” and star of “Gorgeous Tiny Chicken Machine Show“) and Greg Benson (of the hilarious Mediocre Films); scallions and spring onions; childhood near-death experiences are dwelt upon; pitying child actors; adventures in miscasting; Paul climbs up his own arse again, but turns it around and climbs up Kim’s & Greg’s instead; paying attention to comments (or not); viral videos (boobs);
AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION ALERT: Should we put up the video of the four of us sitting in a room?
Show #076: I Should’na Even Stopped Here!
