According to his twitter, Nathan Fillion is going to guest star on/at The Thrilling Adventure Hour in LA. Intrigued by this idea, I went to find their website, and discovered that this is some kind of sci-fi/fantasy themed live-action radio variety show a la A Prairie Home Companion. They also have video of a show from earlier this year.

It's pretty hilarious, and you should all watch it. Highlights are an insane starship computer quoting Macbeth, a parody of a Gilbert & Sullivan song, Gilbert and Sullivan wracked with self-doubt, and the host of terrible puns that emerge from Captain Laserbeam's matchup the The Diebrarian. It's all very much in the spirit of APHC (which gets a mention at the beginning), although these people have more tropes to be self-consciously mocking about.

Now I want to go out to Hollywood someday and watch one...

I am in the enviable position of having time on my hands (when I'm not applying to jobs), and an article to write (which of course I need to procrastinate on), and thus am writing fic, thinking really hard about a Babylon 5 rewatch ([personal profile] aria and [personal profile] foursweatervests have inspired me), and posting things like this meme, which I've seen laying around:

What kind of topics/entries would you like to see me posting about? Any particular questions you've always wanted to ask me but have resisted because the answer would be a huge essay? Ever want to wind me up and watch me go on a particular topic? Anything you've heard me say "I should write that entry about $foo I've been meaning to write" and have been patiently waiting for?
