VBS.TV – Shows: Soft Focus – Ian Svenonius’ chat show on Vibe’s internet TV thing. Yes, Ian Svenonius has a chat show now. And next week he chats with Andrew WK. I get the feeling stars are aligning somewhere.

Matt Gill has been running The Silent Penultimate Panel Watch blog for the past year, where he recorded when the cliche of a silent penultimate panel was used in newspaper comic strips. He’s moving that to a weekly blog now, and his new daily blog is Today’s Rockstars, where he does the same for the cliche of comparing someone or something to a rock star.

Never Not Funny is Jimmy Pardo’s weekly podcast. I’d heard the trailers on TSOYA, but they weren’t really selling it to me. Cut into to tiny clips it seemed a bit too “zoo radio” for my liking, which it is I suppose, but more in line with how Danny Baker or Ricky Gervais have carried out the format. Anyway, after hearing Pardo on TSOYA’s “Jesse, Jordan, Go!” podcast, I gave it a shot and was pleased I did. It’s just 3 guys (and occasionally a guest) chatting about stuff for 45 minutes to an hour, but it’s good stuff and good chat.
