Eddie Gossling - Fresh Brewed Eddie (CD&DVD)
Eddie Gossling is a singular, unfortgettable comic with festival credits and comedy specials and late night appearances under his belt… which makes it all the stranger that he’s best known as a behind-the-scenes man in his role as a writer for Comedy Central’s hit Tosh.O. This isn’t to say that his writing there isn’t stellar, but rather that, if that’s all you know about Eddie Gossling, we’re about to blow your damn minds with Stand Up! Records’ rerelease of “Fresh Brewed Eddie.” As Eddie himself might say, it’s all about perspective. One day you’re flunking out of high school in Nebraska, the next you’re tutoring kids in Louisiana—idiot to elder without leaving the time zone. And then there’s the shift in perspective between toilet-papering a tree at age 17, and toilet-papering the same tree at age 34. By 34, all you’ve gotta do is shout, “YOU KIDS GET OFFA MY LAWN!” and you’re off the hook! Hell, you can even yell at a cop or two. Now, see, isn’t that better?
And now, most exciting of all, you, dear listener, may be just about to go from not having heard of Eddie Gossling to having savored some “Fresh Brewed Eddie”—that’s a whole new world! A creepified new world with sexual warlocks, more romantic hip hop lyrics, oral sex mind-games, and quietly whispered entreaties (“Please, may I see your precious pieces?”), sure, but a brave new world just the same. As a special bonus, Stand Up! Records is tossing in a live DVD of Eddie’s performance “Big in Texas.” Including possibly the only unicorn-based heckler exchange to ever occur on film, Eddie’s experience in becoming more passionately pro-choice at Build-a-Bear, and the amazing comeback “In your face Seabiscuit!,” this DVD is our gift to you. Oh, and it contains possibly the dirtiest Supernanny joke ever. You’ll never think of a time out the same way again!
