If you haven’t checked out Babelgum Comedy’s Old Friends yet, you absolutely should. They were recently named one of the best web videos of 2009. They also want to remind you that just because you’ve known someone a long time doesn’t mean you’re actually friends. For your comedy approval here’s Old Friends’ list of 10 Worst Places to Run into an Enemy.
The STD Clinic
In a public bathroom, mid stream
Behind the counter at a Sex Shop
While buying meat at a grocery store
Stuck in an elevator together
Sitting next to each other on a greyhound bus driving cross country
Spray-on snow, gift-shopping mayhem, the same old reruns on TV… if you’ve already tired of Yuletide then why not go for something different this Christmas? Let this line-up of alternative festive fare inspire you.
We are proud to unveil Rock and Roll Lies, a music documentary premiering exclusively on Babelgum web and Babelgum Mobile, from today.
Award-winning Scottish filmmaker Charles Henri Belleville delved into the private world of Razorlight as he followed the band around the UK for five days during their summer tour.
The result is an intimate portrait of enigmatic frontman Johnny Borrell and his bandmates, offering behind-the-scenes glimpses of one of the most popular indie rock outfits of the ‘noughties.
In the words of our Music publisher Jason Lamont, “Rock ‘n’ Roll Lies is the first in a series of intimate and original music documentaries commissioned by Babelgum. We attached a young film maker to a well known artist, gave him a limited budget and asked him to show us something we’ve never seen before. I think Charlie has achieved this and I think the film celebrates the band for what they are – a truly great British rock band“.
We’re not suggesting that you get a little high before you dive into that turkey, mashed potatoes, and pie… but man, wouldn’t that be delicious? Here are three of Babelgum Comedy’s best comedians discussing the issues behind legalizing drugs. Sweet, sweet drugs.

So, you’ve roasted your turkey. Now what? The Holiday Kitchen has a blow-by-blow video on how to carve a turkey that’ll show you exactly how to go about dismembering the centerpiece of the holiday menu.

If someone else is doing the cooking, kick back and enjoy some droll Thanksgiving cartoons from the New Yorker, with Cavity Search (turkey surprise!) and Thanksgiving Tradition.
This week marks the end of the hit comedy series Mass Debaters. For six weeks, we’ve been asking comedians there thoughts on a variety of topics and collecting your votes to see who is the best Mass Debater. We’ve had six great weeks of winner and are wrapping it up with a “Best of” Seventh week. Here we give you the sample question Mass Debaters – Glenn Beck: Smart or Psycho?
Psycho…I mean like literally a Psycho. I think he owns a rundown motel and dresses up as his mother and murders people.
- Tom Clark
Glenn Beck is what you’d classify as a smart psycho. He’s a complete lunatic who cries less convincingly than my 3 year old niece when she wants a barbie. He plays it up for the idiot masses who buy into his bullshit (i’m looking at you chuck norris) and would quite likely skin a poor person or hillbilly alive on camera if he thought it would give him a .5% bump in the ratings. Which, sadly, it probably would given his audience.
But the annoying fact is, he’s being talked about, he’s got a very popular show and he’s making millions of dollars. Which, sadly, does make him qualify under the modern day business man’s definition of smart.
But smart in the douchiest possible way. Like Bin Laden… or that Madoff dickhead.

Those crazy kids at Babelgum Comedy are causing a ruckus all over the world. Two such examples are this Saturday’s Vampire Flashmob in Hollywood, California. If you happen to be in the area looking for a drink or a bite (like a vampire, get it?) here are the details.
Don’t judge a book by its cover, and don’t judge a Halloween hoochie just because she’s got a little extra cleavage showing. In their latest video, Landline TV lampoons the time-honored practice of dressing like a whore for Halloween; even if that whore happens to have a doctorate. Watch this latest video right here, right now:
