In the wake of Conan's departure, we've become enamored with Jimmy Kimmel's show which, like Conan's Tonight Show, is something we haven't watched enough (thankyouverymuch, Oprah replay). In this great bit from his post-Oscars show, Kimmel presides over a meeting of the Handsome Men's Club. Chuck, Tankboy, and myself have all been rejected by said club though we understand Prescott made it past the first round of the selection process. more ›

Ever wanted to own a chair that asshat former governor Rod Blagojevich sat in? Yeah, us neither. But now you can, courtesy of this unusual auction on eBay. Blago's not the only one to have sat in the chair, which comes from the set of Jimmy Kimmel Live. Others who have placed their behind in that seat include Mel Gibson, Paris Hilton, the Fox(x) triplets (Megan, Matthew, and Jamie), and [swoon] Anne Hathaway. But our boy Blago is (inexplicably) the headliner on the chair, which is currently at a bid of $4,650.00. Kimmel made the proposal to Blago on the air last week and Blago seemed all for it as long as the proceeds were used to hire people who didn't have jobs. Such an altruist. more ›

Chicagoist is a big fan of channeling our inspirations into our creative output, so we’re naturally drawn to the British Invasion — worshipping Locksley. Named for Robin of Locksley from Robin Hood, one has to expect and accept a certain amount of best-intended robbery. Fortunately, this fab foursome from Madison (by way of Brooklyn) has the gumption and showmanship to pull off the rip off with more than a bit of style and an endearing dose of pluck. Whereas Chicago’s dour own Redwalls attempt a similar aesthetic, it’s Locksley that delivers because you can believe these guys truly love the music they emulate. more ›

We’ve already told you about the weekly tapings of locally produced NPR hit Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me. We decided to attend yesterday's taping when we heard that Sarah Silverman was to be a call-in guest, since we honestly can’t get enough of that gal. Though we do admit to being totally mystified as to why a woman that cool is dating Jimmy Kimmel. Ah, those vexing mysteries of life. We arrived at the taping... more ›
