We’ve been ensconced in trees for the past two weeks doing a parody of Survivor Man called The Naturist. It’s fun to blow shit up and get stung by bees but there’s only one problem: Projects like this require funding. So, if you know of any sponsors that sell outdoorsy stuff and would like to give us money to make this show, please send all checks to the email linked to our “contact” button. Without a sponsor, this footage isn’t even going to make it to the cutting room floor. In the future we will be setting up money BEFORE we start making something. “Stupid!” (slap) “Stupid!” (slap).
Oh, and PS, for those of you eager to point out Will Farrell may be already be doing a similar thing with Bear Grills. Fuck. I know. It was a dark day when we saw that on Page Six. Fucking guy and his time machines stealing ideas. This means getting a sponsor and getting ours out before his is all the more pressing. Please show this link to wealthy outdoorsy companies as soon as possible. This fucker needs to go live within the month.

Gavin is always talking about how it’s lame to be into Obama b/c he’s the President now, and “I love authority” and so on. Yet here he is sending out an anonymous request to the internet Santa Claus of creative sponsorship. Dude. Quit suckling at the corporate teat and be as punk rock as you pretend to be. Punk rock isn’t about hating the government, it’s about hating insidious control. Same goes for everyone else out there waiting for checks to come in from strangers. Figure it out dude, everyone from musicians to filmmakers can do this shit on the cheap these days. Find some people you can rely on who are just as interested you are in getting something done and make it happen.
PS, Zing! Take that Survivorman!

TRUTH,
“Punk rock isn’t about” = End of the discussion. You can’t be taken seriously after that high school cultural historian bullshit.

05.14.09 at 3:15 pm
i find it funny how he asks for money but then flaunts his large collection of fire extinguishers. dude is obviously not hurting for cash.

truth:
fuck you for calling out gavin for getting corporate sponsors. it`s something called “thinking outside of the box”

WELL I THINK IT IS A DIS-GRACE BECASUE WE AMREICAN’S PRACTICLY INVENTED SURVIVAL BUT WHY CA’NT WE HAVE A SURVIVER SHOW HOST, WELL YOU SAY ‘WHAT DO YOU MEAN’ AND I SAY WELL BEAR GIRLS IS FROM SCOTTLAND AND THE OTHER GUY IS A CANADIAN MAN, NO AMERICAN’S WHY NOT???
WE INVENTED THE SURVIVER-CHIC MOVEMENT BACK IN 1776 AND WE HAVE BEEN SURVIVING STRONG EVER SENSE, LOOK AT LANCE ARMSTRONG AND EMERAL LAGASS FOR EXAMPLE, TWO STRONG SURVIVER’S JUST DOING THEY’RE THING. WELL OF COARSE BUT THEN THE FOOD NETWORK TAKES EMERAL’S SHOW FROM HIM, SO IT JUST GOES TO SHOW THAT EVEN IN THESE TRYING TIME’S ITS HARD TO KEEP A GOOD MAN DOWN.

that was fucking awesome There’s no dental care, most of them are not even people!
05.14.09 at 4:54 pm
Punk was all about hating the government and any other kind of insidious control, because most of the punks weren’t so good at the thinking or accomplishing of anything.

@ The Bedroom Athlete at 11:21, 11:22 and 12:04.
Please stop whining about people “using your name”.
05.14.09 at 6:09 pm
Hey, most of the punks were not you, boy, so how would you know about Lawndale?

Anyone can make a survivorman parody with like ten dollars.
05.14.09 at 10:57 pm
moosejaw.com has sponsorship info (or they used to) and you just send a proposal and photos. Easy shit.

[...] The Naturist has a sponsor. I’m not going to announce it until they see the actual bits on the off chance they make like a responsible teenager and pull out, but praise the Lord Jesus they gave us enough money to go even farther than we ever hoped we could ever go – ever. We did three sketches about survival in the wild and I happen to think they are binary gold but this brings me to a bigger point, well, theory… [...]
