The Daily Alison (Where Tony Camin fights dog nazis)
Okay seriously! Is rain during an interview going to repeatedly flummox me? Apparently I’m powerless not to abandon whatever question I’m in the middle of asking to instead talk about the rain. And it’s not like I just started interviewing people. Clearly what’s going on is that rain was just invented. This is probably what it was like when TV was first invented. People would be sitting in their caves chewing leaves and using every part of a boar and then the minute someone in a neighboring cave turned on the TV it was goodbye discussions of homemade boar jerky and hello Newhart.
Anyway, this is Tony Camin.
I’m on CNET’s The 404 tomorrow.
And don’t forget there’s this site too! Thedailyalison.com. Go there if you’re sick of all these damn words.
The Daily Alison (where Gawker's The Cajun Boy is up all night)
So this is a Daily Alison first: in the episode before this one, Courtney Reimer mentioned The Cajun Boy and then this episode featured The Cajun Boy. My series now includes foreshadowing! Can alliteration be far behind?
Go here to read The Cajun Boy’s stuff on Gawker and here to see his blog.
The Daily Alison (where it's father's day and I get caught in the rain)
Clearly I was about to sneeze during this whole show.
The Daily Alison (Part 1, where Will Forte is writing a MacGruber movie)
Ok, I’m not going to lie. This is a little slow at the beginning but you people need to slow down and take a breath anyway. Seriously, you’re like a blur with all this to-ing and fro-ing. And fro-yo-ing. Some of those toppings are going to fall off if you keep this up and I will be damned if I’m going to just follow after you picking up your sprinkles and pokies and jimmies and scrapple. And joeys. (Tiny chocolate covered baby kangaroos.) (That’s disgusting.)
Anyway, here’s the story I wrote about Kirstin Wiig referred to in the episode and here’s more on Will Forte.
The Daily Alison (with guest Wendy Molyneux, parts 1 & 2)
This is the Wendy of Alison and Wendy fame! And other kinds of fame!
Also it was only after I watched this that I realized she didn’t name the dorms we lived in junior and senior year. All of a sudden we were talking about pot and cookies and then I woke up and my clothes were on backwards and the shrinky dinx I’d put in the oven twelve hours before were burned and microscopic.
The Daily Alison (Where Trevor doesn't answer and I lose my mind)
Here’s today’s episode. There are a few spots where you might have trouble hearing what I said because I put a bunch of marbles in my mouth before I turned on the camera. Allow me to just write those out:
“My friend Katie, who we call The Fish”
“I used to get fluid in my ears” (as opposed to getting food in my ears which is what it sounds like I said which is both compelling and disgusting.)
Oh, also I added a page to the right about Media Training & Public Speaking Coaching.
Also added an upcoming appearances page.
I’m kind of cold. Is it cold?
The Daily Alison (Where John DeVore stares at blank walls)
You can read John’s Mind of Man column every Wednesday on TheFrisky.com.
But let’s talk about the crazy edits that you may have seen in the above video if you were watching it with your eyes. What a fucking nightmare hatchet job that was, right? In addition to firing my prop guy and makeup person and producer, I’m totally shitcanning my editor. Then I’m firing whoever’s in charge of censoring the foul language around here because they’re letting some doozies through. But what happened was I messed up the time count and then I had about twelve minutes of footage and so I had to shave off about a minute and a half (apparently I can upload a little over ten mins on youtube) and then all hell broke loose. I wasn’t just out of breath because a shark was chasing me. I was out of breath because I blew up all those inflatable things that were dangling off my body. I have half a mind to put the parts I cut out back in and just cut this into two clips but that will take forever and it’s onward and upward for me. No looking back. I only have eyes for tomorrow. And I’m lazy.
The Daily Alison (Where my dad does impressions and then I almost hang up on him)
I feel bad that my dad was just gearing up to tell some cute stories and I had to rush him off the phone. And I mean, these were cute stories ABOUT ME so lord knows I wanted to hear them but YouTube waits for no woman.
And here’s more info about Our Town.
The Daily Alison (featuring Koryn, former Maxim Radio "Emergency Hot Chick")
Former Maxim Radio “Emergency Hot Chick” probably isn’t the best way to describe my friend Koryn however “smart, funny writer who happens to be able to do an array of voices” is just too long.
Here’s a story she wrote about how to spend a billion dollars. She currently writes for Esquire and other Hearst publications.
