DOS & DON'TS

I love the folks who think you can actually fill kids’ brains with a bunch of stuff about respecting differences and avoiding stereotypes, as if the second they’re out the door they aren’t playing basketballrappers and Santa-Jedis at Abu Ghraib. Comments/Enlarge | See all

THE EPICLY LATER’D PAGE

Words & Photos by Patrick O'Dell

Patrick interviews three of his Epicly Later’d show subjects via iChat

Vice: What did you think of the episode I did about you?

Heath Kirchart:
I liked the first one. I don’t really remember the next two. They kind of got into stuff that I don’t think too many people cared about.

What do people care about?

Me looking like a weirdo, I guess. It made me look like a weirdo.

Do you think you look as weird as some other people I did episodes on?

I had people I travel with all the time calling me a weirdo. Usually those people don’t say that shit about you after a couple trips.

I think Greco might seem weirder.

Oh yeah. That was pretty weird in a whole different way. He truly is weird in that way too.

I think my instincts tend to be weird, but I can fake normalcy.

Is this for something or are you just curious?

This is for my column in Vice. I thought Bob told you. I have a page so I was going to ask my chat friends who I did shows on what they thought.

You should get Greco’s opinion on his show. Now that’s what I want to know.

He told me he reminded himself of Dee Dee Ramone. Who do you remind yourself of?

I don’t know, some drunk dude at parties.

I regret showing you eating the steak. I always want to take that out.

I’d have to watch it again, I haven’t seen it since the time it came out. The teaser that you put on YouTube was funny. They all kind of blend together.

Yeah, the kid who asked if the slam hurt.

I get asked that at demos. Kids mocking that kid.

one thing i like about the o’dell guy is that none of its trying too hard or over the top or pretentious, and its not pretentious in a ’im not being pretentious on purpose’ kind of way, which is almost even more pretentious than just being a little bit pretentious. it just seems genuine, which is refreshing.
and then add to that the fact that his photography is really really good.
and then add to that the fact that theres the aspect of being part of something by accident, some art thing, thats only just started, and is totally accessible, through the internet or your blog or whatever.
hard to explain but theres just something in what he does that lacks the whole "im gonna be a big star" vibe that sooooo many of his contemporaries have.
not sure that answered the guys question of are these guys even cool...

Patrick: "Ok."
