Dave Hill—comedian, musician, writer, snappy dresser—stopped by this episode of Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend to discuss his new book, Tasteful Nudes. He also told us about getting slapped in the face by a few different sets of fake breasts, playing in a band with Moby, waking up in a weird bathroom, being a lazy meat warden (note: not his words) and an array of other things, one of them involving larvae.

We do like you 🙂 And I enjoy being named after food… crouton is a thumbs up, even if it fails to reflect my combination of swashbuckling good looks, rapier wit and blunderbuss intelligence. Tragically, I used to call a tiny ex-girlfriend friend kumquat. No money shot intended. What food are you, Alison?

Yes, going back to review works of your own art (oh god) is usually painful. I can't count the number of times I've written something and thought Damn, I am a genius. If Delillo and Faulkner and Cormac got a threesome up I would be their wicked and holy offspring. Only to return the next day, to what words I was so enamored with, and think You are a dullard. An outright dummy. Pretension and failure are your muses and you've sucked their teats dry. Loser. Quit and balloon up to five hundred pounds and play Star Wars online until Geraldo has to cut the wall away to get you out of there.
Not that that was what you were thinking, while listening to your band's music, because that song was good. Punky. I'm just projecting my own brand of low self esteem here. And stalling, so as not to have to return to my art (mmhmm, I said it again).
OMG… “What food are you?” … Dude, you need to submit that as a topic for Topic Sombrero!!!
Rapier wit: quantified sense of intelligent humor whist engaged in a violate act of sex.
Yeah, I’m that classy.
I don't know if you post the pics elsewhere, but sometimes you mention stuff that you're looking at and I'd like to see it too! Like on Adam's show…..

Alison, i love the show and you. Does it make me the worst mom in the world if I listened to this podcast in my car with my 2 y/o in the backseat whom is now walking around the house singing, “hey, hey, hey go fuck yourself!”?
Really? That's amazing and awful and makes me smile!

Good pod, Alison. You continue to amaze me with the breadth of your talent. That song, and The Angorras, rocked hard. Sorry to hear that it was a friend's suicide that was the catalyst. If art is the alchemy of turning raw emotion into transcendent lyrics and music, you succeeded on that one.

I love “Hey, Go Fuck Yourself” please keep it up. Passion + Alison Rosen = Pure Awesome

Ugggghhhhh. Fifty Shades of Grey is AWFUL. I also downloaded it just to see what the fuss was about and was freaking disgusted by the fact that this piece of crap is as popular as it is. THANK YOU.

NOSE HAIR – FROSTED TIPS
In response to the previous podcast where applying makeup can cause powder to cling to nose hairs and look unbecoming; my simple fix is to dip a q-tip in water and clean out the nostrils/hair. Voila!

This is to be done after applying makeup…if that wasn't clear.
