HOWARD STERN MEETS DAVE CHOE (Aka Kim Jong Stern)

Holy shit! First it's revealed that DAVID CHOE  is the owner of perhaps $200 million in Facebook stock after Mark Zuckerberg's company went public last week. And now even bigger news (in my world)...Choe was on Howard Stern! [video HERE at Giant Robot] Don't be surprised if Choe's podcast doesn't now end up on Sirius...or hell he might just buy Sirius.


Choe gets a Munko on the walls of Sirius' ivory towers, and he didn't even have to sneek in.
Howards adopts him and dubs him Kim Jong Stern.


Choe knocks out a ghetto-detail of Howard Stern in his natural habitat.


Choe works the reception desk at Facebook under the watchful gaze of one of his own paintings and
Mark Zuckerberg's killer nanobots.

GIANT ROBOT Needs Some Cash Money!

This really surprised me. It's pretty obvious that print newspapers and magazines are on a steady decline to obsolescence, and yet I LOVE them so much...and Giant Robot is one of the best and most diverse mags in print. These guys (Eric & Martin) own retail stores, and even a vegan restaurant, so I assumed the magazine was on very solid ground. But apparently not.
Having briefly published a magazine myself I know how excruciatingly hard it is to get advertising; how distribution and rising shipping costs can be utterly dispiriting; and how everything in print is losing ground to the immediacy (and illiteracy) of the web. So anyway, watch the video and throw a few bucks to GR, if only to keep them around for your (and my) own edification.
