photo of the day – crash

Hollywood is full of nuts. Every city  has its colorful characters, but the true blue lunatics, the real basket case, live in Los Angeles. Take my friend Crash Richard, for instance. He moved out to LA from New Orleans after Katrina hit and started a band called The Deadly Syndrome (album on sale now at iTunes). Now Crash is sweet, gentle, and a very talented singer. I consider Crash a friend, and i like him very much, but he is cuckoo bird. (more…)

mister merlin’s show and tell – the stockroom

So ever since we first posted his “Show and Tell” program, Mister Merlin has been dying to get us down to the Stockroom. This is, after all, the place where he picked up his selection of sexual fetish devices, like the nipple clamp contraption he demonstrated on JxPx Blackmon, and the source of all those fine catalogs we used for Jeff Tremaine’s birthday present.

tales from the dickhouse – crash loves marf

Only eight months ago, before I was Tremaine’s assistant, I’d been stun-gunned a grand total of zero times. Seriously. Never been stunned before. I guess, up to that point in my life, I’ve successfully avoided psychopaths who run around with weapons meant for the defenseless elderly and the police. Obviously, this is no longer true. Since my first shock, a jackass bar-mitzvah of sorts, there have been many, many others. Many others. This video, practically a summary of my entire existence, is one of those “many other” shocks. Welcome to my world. —Marf

behind the scenes – the jackassworld weather with eddie barbanell

Last week you were introduced to jackassworld’s new weatherman Howser Bush brilliantly played by my pal Eddie Barbanell. Well, we wanted to show you the behind-the-scenes of that shoot so you can see Eddie is just as much of a smart-ass between takes as he was in the take. He is like an old borscht belt insult comic just letting everybody have it constantly. Poor Wolfie, he may now answer to “Buttzville” for the rest of his life.

Love, Knoxville

P.S. You didn’t hear it from me, but the guy who f’ed up our map of the United States was The Deadly Syndrome’s Will Etling.

jackassworld live replay pt. 2 – the deadly syndrome

After kicking Dave England out of our crappy little conference room cum jackassworld live set, Kosick calls in Christopher “Crash” Richard to join his Deadly Syndrome band mate Jesse Hoy in the hot seat. And it literally becomes a hot fucking seat for Crash once Johnny Knoxville saunters in with Habanaro sauce in hand, but not before Jesse takes a rat trap snap to his minimalist man boob. In exchange for seeing Crash and Jesse man-up on camera without any other real choice in sight, perhaps you can now see it in your heart to go visit their myspace page or hit up iTunes for “Eucalyptus” and other songs.
