Title: Going Deep with David Rees
Post by: fidget on December 19, 2015, 09:31:25 PM

I know David has been on the show with his artisinal pencil sharpening, but did you know he has a whole show based on how do do really simple things really well?  Well he does. It's the second season, and the topics are:

How to:
Pet a Dog (Amy Sedaris)
Eavesdrop
Get Punched (Aimee Mann, Bernard Hopkins)
Bounce a Ball
Sign Your Name (Button Gwinnett, Paul F. Tompkins)
Take a Nap (John Hodgeman)

It's pretty good and has some good info considering how simple the subjects are.

This show was astounding from the first episode onwards. All the new ones I've seen are excellent as well. Wish there was a DVD with all of the outtakes and extended clips Rees has talked about. "This neuroscientist was cool -- we also talked about Metallica for twenty minutes between a take."

How To Sharpen Pencils had one of the best payoffs I've ever read, so great. This show is FANTASTIC, can't wait to watch season 2 :)
