Monday Questions!!!

Ok, so I said I was going to answer questions every Friday but ….it’s now Monday. So, I guess I’m going to do it every Monday from now on.

Thanks everyone for leaving your questions in the comments. I’ll answer a new round of them next Monday!!

Here are last weeks!

Q: Super Sandy : Ok, your stuck in a bathroom for 12 days with all the guys from WKUK…who do you think would get eatin first?

A: I would probably say Timmy. But Ellen D wanted me to not say Timmy because she thinks he gets picked on a lot. So Sam. But, Timmy.

 

Q: Jennifer Mahr: Will you send me a signed autograph or come to Minneapolis, MN to do some skits?

A: I would like to say yes to the autograph thing, but honestly I would probably forget. I still haven’t sent my sister her birthday present yet and her birthday is in January. It’s just sitting in my living room. As for the Minneapolis thing, we’re going to be doing a tour later in the fall and I would think that we’ll probably play there.

 

Q: Jason: Hey Trevor, just curious what kind of tv shows do you find funny these days? (edit) Also can u give us just one song title off the new cd?

A: Ummm … I like to watch ‘I Didn’t Know I Was Pregnant” and “Teen Mom”. I don’t want to give out a track name yet, but I’m pretty sure we’ll be releasing a preview track or two before the full album comes out.

 

Q: Karen : What’s your advice to dealing with those people in your life -who -while you care about them try and tell you stupid stuff like “People can die from marijuana” and try and talk you out of daily routines and stuff. Is it easier to put them in their place to make them realize how retarded they sound? Or pretend to keep agreeing with everything they say until they shut up??

A: I don’t think I’m the best person to be giving out life advice.  I’m pretty passive agressive person so I would probably just say “Uh huh .. ok” and then make fun of them behind their back.

 

Q: Felicia: So now that the Whitest Kids season 5 is over, is this the official end? Any plans for the future (besides live touring), or is everybody basically moving onto individual projects? How long do you plan on touring, and is it new material or from previous episodes? I know thats more than one question =]

A: Nah, we’ll still do stuff together as well as individual projects. We’re writing a WKUK movie right now and we’ve been talking about maybe putting out a new album (Besides the solo album that I’m putting out.) And our tour will probably be a mixture of old sketches from the show and new stuff.

 

Q: Name: How do you honestly feel about Miss March?
Also, the Boston Royal show was really awesome. Thanks for coming out.
Your sketches have really influenced me creativly and drug-wise. Turns out banana peels don’t work very well. Your show is also what got me through high school, so thanks.

A: I really liked parts of it. But other parts I thought could have worked better.  I wish we could have given it more time  but we were writing and editing it while also shooting seasons 2 and 3.

 

Q: Marissa: Hey Trevor, what are some of your favorite Disneyland rides??

A: Tower of Terror.

 

Q: Ellen: Just wondering whose idea it was to create a Hamlet combination with Othello and a vampire army in the Abe Lincoln gets Shot sketch?

A: Ha ha, no idea. It’s hard to remember the origins for a lot of the individual jokes in the sketches, especially the ones from way back in Season 1.

 

Q: Jay W: My question is, would you go to a Weird Al concert with me and my girlfriend? haha. We saw you on tour, and it was one of the best nights we ever had together.

A: Sure, let’s go. And thanks!

 

Q: Lalita: 1. Who was in the Sex Robot costume? 2. Will your coming out album have the songs from some sketches? Like Old Folks Home and such? 3. Have you ever heard of the rapper Immortal Technique? Well, he’s great. You should check him out.  !!

A:1.  It was Zach for some scenes and then it was a PA of ours.

2. The album will be all new songs. But there might be a bonus thing with some of my other songs. I’m not really sure yet.

3. I have and you’re right. He is great.

 

Q: Claire Gray: Did you ever voice a polar bear for a ron paul ad? Secondly, who’s your favorite president ever and why?

A: No, that’s not me in the Ron Paul ad.  And I don’t really have a favorite President.  They’re all bad men.

 

Q: Tina Guiliana: My question is: could Paul Nichols, the dude who died after having his face taken off, be the same dude who died while erotic asphyxiating himself in an alternate reality or something?

A: Um …. yes?

 

Q: Clara: Beer or wine?

A: Depends. I drink liquor mostly. But I guess I like wine more than beer. I dunno, it’s all good.

 

Q: Michelina: Do you come up with the backing tracks (beats and riffs) for your songs? Or do you bring the melodies/lyrics to someone who then comes up with them?

A: Yeah, I make a recording of myself humming the tunes and send them to the producers who work on the musical riffs and everything.

 

Q: Nataly: 1) Will you be doing any more whatever shows when you get back? 2) In the hot sister sketch, was the sister a girl or a guy? And who was it?? Okay that was three.

A: 1. I think so. I’m hoping to start them up again after I finish this album. 2. That was an actress named Bobbi Bentzel. She’s been in a bunch of our sketches!

 

Ok!! That’s all for this week! send in any questions you have for next week! And let me know if you have any input or ideas to improve this Q & A thing! Thanks guys!!

Day #1 in studio

Hey everyone! Thanks for doing that Flying Q&A with me. That was fun. My laptop battery died halfway through the flight though. So, I’ll answer the rest of the questions tomorrow.

I’m going to try to answer whatever questions people leave on this site every Friday from now on.

But until then, here’s a picture of the studio I’m recording the album in!

Answering Questions While Flying

Ok! I gotta fly to NYC tonight at midnight (PST) and I’m gonna be bored. So if the plane has wi-fi I’ll answer any questions anyone has about WKUK or this new album or anything!

I even made a fancy new graphic for it! See? It’s at the top of the page! It took me 5 hours.

Just leave me questions here! And then once they let us turn on laptops I’ll start answering them (It’ll probably be around midnight PST).

We’ll see if this works or if it’s stupid! Thanks!

RECORDING NEW COMEDY CD!

I’m heading to New York tomorrow to record a brand new comedy CD!

This is a solo album that I’ve been writing for the past year. It’ll have about 12 new songs on it.

I don’t have a title for it yet. So if anyone has any ideas, lemme know. So far, my favorite potential album titles are “Get 30 Hours of AOL for Free with this Installation Disc” or “If You Pirate This You’ll Get AIDS.”

I’m going to be updating this site a lot as I’m in the studio – I know I keep saying I’m going to update the site – but I mean it this time. For serious. Promise.

Also; if you have any questions about WKUK, this album or anything else, leave ‘em as a comment and I’ll answer them every Friday from now on.

I swear.

OK, that’ll do it for now. Bye!

Thank You All For 5 Great Years

Tonight, the final episode of the Whitest Kids U’ Know airs on IFC and I’d just like to say ‘thank you’ to all of you out there who have tuned in week after week, sent our sketches around youtube and told everyone about our little show.

It’s hard to believe that its been 5 years since we debuted on the Fuse network ( right before Pants Off Dance Off! ) and so many of you have been so kind and supportive since day one.
I remember doing a live interview on Steve’s Untitled Rock Show, only one week after the show came out, and being shocked that so many people who liked the show actually came down to the studio to say ‘Hi’ and stand outside the window (in the rain even!).

When the show moved to IFC, I was, again, shocked by how many of you wrote in saying you were going to add the channel so you could watch our show. And every time we’ve toured, it’s been amazing how nice and cool everybody we’ve met has been. ( Hardly any of you give us a hard time about how crappily rehearsed our live shows are!)

If it wasn’t for so many of you sending our sketches around the Internet, we never would have gotten the show, and if it wasn’t for you guys embracing the show the way you did, we’d never would have been picked up by IFC, and if it wasn’t for how awesome you’ve been to us since then, we’d never have been able to do 5 seasons.

This isn’t the end of the story. We’ll still tour as a troupe, we’ll still make specials and we’re writing a new film as we speak – but we’re getting to the end of a chapter. And it’s been a great chapter thanks to you guys.

Love you all, see you soon

Trevor

(And a very special thanks to everyone at IFC for putting up with us for all these years. We’d never have been able to make a show this dirty, anywhere else :) )

TREVER GETS SICK OF HIS COUNTRY AND GOES TO CRASH AT OTHER COUNTRIES PART 1: Hello guvnah!

I am in Heathrow Airport (which is English for ‘JFK Airport’)
If anyone reading this has never been to London. This is what it looks like:

Also: they still have Hobbit/elf sized Coke’s here.

This is because it is such an old country. We didn’t discover America until after all of the Hobbits/elves had been killed by that giant meteor. So we only have big people sized things.

This was the view from outside of my airplane as we were flying.
