Upcoming: 3 Years of LIVE! From the future…

September 29? What’s special about it… “Inventor’s Day in Argentina?”, you say?The day after Yom Kippur?” “The Death anniversary of chef Austin Leslie, the celebrated ‘King of Fried Chicken’?

Yes but no.

September 29 of this very year will witness the 3 year Anniversary of Live! From the Future…

That’s right, Stu and his dangerous yet somehow lovable partners in art thievery John Fulton and Jessie Schneiderman have been plugging away for one quarter of a dozen years now.

It’s a happy happy anniversary show, with musicalicious guests The Fresh and Rapsmith And The State of Law.

This is, of course, all just an excuse to drink a lot of beer and get noisy with a pair of special musical guests. Taking the stage for our anniversary show will be The Fresh, fronted by the man some* call “Elvis, Sinatra and Pavarotti all wrapped up in one, although not with the terrible weight problems that constantly plagued Pavarotti or Elvis in his final years of drug-fuelled decline”. That’s right, we’re talking Live! From the Future…’s own musical mad scientist, John Fulton.

Next up will be the very funny hip-hoppish stylings of Rapsmith & The State of Law. According to legend, this two-man group was born of a terrifying yet humorous accident at a secret government research lab (the rumors say Roswell, New Mexico). Like any mutant product of an experiment gone wildly wrong, Rapsmith & The State of Law found themselves in Los Angeles as part of the local music scene. The boys slide into our studio to help celebrate birthday number three with Stu and the gang (hey, that could be a really derivative name for a band!).

In between, Stu will do his very best to keep sober… er, interact with the bands, celebrate the big moments of the past three years, and recycle all the gags we’ve tried and failed since 2006.

PLUS: A very special guest!!!

Join us live tonight at 8:00 for the music, the fun and the festivities, and don’t forget the piñatas and party hats. The birthday cake’s on us.

Wrap: James Francis Ginty and Galadriel Stineman

2x Guests: From Cartoon Network’s Ben 10: Alien Swarm, it’s Galadriel Stineman, and from the upcoming sci-fi thriller Surrogates, say hello to James Francis Ginty!

Tuesday night: You can double the flavor and triple the fun (how’s that math?). First up was the lovely, well-composed and exceptionally athletically/mentally adept actor Galadriel Stineman, starring in the new live action Cartoon Network movie Ben 10: Alien Swarm,  followed by the cantankerous bundle of joy (all said lovingly, James) that is fellow thespian James Francis Ginty, starring in the new Bruce Willis movie Surrogates.

LFTF.Blog.Picture.1Galadriel Stineman’s life-like surrogate tried to sub in for the real Galadriel Stineman on LIVE! From the future…

Alcohol shortages prevent us from also doubling the number of Stu’s on-air companions, but that’s just fine as John Fulton and Jessie Schneiderman continue to be in rare (read: semi-sober) form.

LFTF.Blog.Picture.2Stu unzips his pants live on the air.

We kicked off the show with an Emmy-themed round of that old chat room chestnut, You Supply the Punchline. I’m not saying that the responses we got were unfunny – but punchlines really should be HUMOROUS.

Then, on with Galadriel (Gah-LAY-dree-el), a busy actor soon to appear in both the upcoming Cartoon Network movie Ben 10: Alien Swarm, and the soon-to-be released horror thriller Junkyard Dog. This didn’t stop Stu from subjecting her to Message Board Mayhem, a free-for-all Q&A from the (you guessed it) Message Boards. Galadriel gave it back by participating in LFTF’s public service educational segment, I Learnt It on Da Stream.TV, in which she demonstrated how to draw a cartoon monkey in less than half a minute.

Two of Galadriel’s less obvious talents were exposed in Useless Skills – with Galadriel Stineman, as she recited the alphabet backwards while working a hula hoop. – it was pure uncut entertainment gold!

LFTF.Blog.Picture.3James Francis Ginty from Surrogates looks for an exit route as the interview goes down in a flame of horrors.

Next on the guest docket was James Francis Ginty, fresh from playing one of the main roles in the upcoming Bruce Willis sci-fi mystery Surrogates. James not only held up to Stu’s relentless grilling, he nearly achieved victory in our first quiz: Ballerina or Robot? (Given that he’s actually been both…)

James’s first major-movie role was as a Russian sailor in K19: Widowmaker (improbably starring Harrison Ford), so we decided to play Evil Russian: I Miss You Cold War, which probably takes the grand prize for most convoluted LFTF quiz title. It could probably do well in the most confounding sweepstakes too, since James – as well as the chat room – couldn’t name the movies that featured villainous Reds such as Rosa Klebb (From Russia With Love) and Irina Spalko (Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull).

LFTF.Blog.Picture.4James Francis Ginty (former Julliard whiz kid), shows us how to do a pirouette – mayhem ensued.

Following that, the chat room prodded James into showing us a cool move from his ballet student days – a pirouette that we counted as his contribution to the Useless Skills with… segment. We capped the night with a lightning round of 60 Seconds, wherein James revealed his porn star name and gave the title of his potential novel (Yo!), which coincidentally is also to be the epitaph on his tombstone.

LFTF.Blog.Picture.5Galadriel nearly collapses after we subject her to an intensive hula hoop routine, while Stu takes a power nap.

With that, we shut the tomb on a lively edition of LFTF. Next week promises to be even livelier, as it’ll be the third anniversary of our show. The booze will be flowing as will the guest list, which features some of the top visitors from the first few years of the show. Join us for the extravaganza and help Stu, Fulron and Jessie celebrate it the right way – by getting drunk and making lewd suggestions on the message boards. Yo!

Wrap: Kristen Renton from FX’s Sons of Anarchy!

Kristen Renton from Sons of Anarchy gives us everything and more. What a gamer!

1 Kristen

Watch This Episode on www.theStream.tv

After a one-month hiatus spent training hard and popping steroids to build grotesque levels of muscle mass, the wrecking crew that is LIVE! From the Future… stepped back into the ring. Weighing in at 200 pounds, minus the codpiece, was Stu, Jessie Schneiderman – who moonlights as a Scandinavian turntablist DJ Schnooterman – and Tampa Bay’s #2 Oldsmobile saleman, John Fulton.

2 John and Jessie

(America’s second favorite novelty act (behind the Bacon Brothers) is LFTF’s own 9 inches. See them on tour this fall with Sandusky, Ohio’s own “Wildcat”, a band dedicated to a football play.)

Following a brief on-set romance between John and Stu (it didn’t work out… or did it?), we finally got a nice look at Jesse’s new set… her studio set, you pervs. But she does have sweet sweet jewbs; this, we all know.

The several new backdrops, the new Tri-Caster studio… all ideal for hosting a classy guest like actor Kristen Renton from FX’s hit show: Sons of Anarchy. We not only got the skinny on her career and her current project, we grilled her in a series of quizzes. Since she plays a porn actor and has Danish ancestry, we thought it only fitting to start with America’s #1 family fun game, Danish Porn Star or Member of Parliament?

3 Kristen aloneKristen reacts with pure unadulterated joy when learning she will be the one and only contestant on “Danish Porn Star or Member of Parliament?”

For those of you scoring at home, smart Kristen was a perfect six for six, even guessing correctly that the immortal Lars Rasmussen is not, in fact, known for his coitus impressivius. Actually, he’s the country’s Prime Minister.

Next up was a rapid-fire set of chat room questions Kristen had to answer truthfully in the space of sixty seconds. The grilling didn’t stop there – we played Tampa Bay Trivia, all about her beloved sports teams. She stumbled a bit here and there, but honestly, I didn’t even know Tampa Bay was a real place until last year when their baseball squadron apparently made the World Series? Wha???

Kristen did better with LFTF’s famous Ultimate Tomboy Test, passing with a robust score – proving without a doubt – she is a Tomboy. I mean, come on she even admitting to lighting her own farts on fire and peeing outside (not on the same day.) Look at her – who wouldn’t love this girl?

4 Kristen and Stu

“Kristen, I get that you like to pee outside, but did you have to do it on my car as I was getting out of it?”

Nextly, we mined the depths of chat room wisdom to come up with Instant Action Movies. Details aside, we figured out her next vehicle: Firefarter, a woman who can solve crime and save the world with her ability to shoot flaming farts. I think Soderbergh should direct.

As if this finely wrapped bundle of entertainment wasn’t enough, we finished with a round of Come Again? in which ex-soap stars like Kristen have to act and emote their way through a line or two of dialogue.

5 Kristen and Stu part 2Kristen hangs tough through 50 minutes of uncut weirdness, trivia and chatroom come-ons.

Batteries? Octo-mom? Tampa frickin’ Bay? Boy, did this show veer in bizarre directions. Stu and John finally brought it to a close before it could veer any further.

Next week we’ll probably veer even weirdlier with a new guest, Galadriel Stineman from Cartoon Network’s upcoming Ben 10: Alien Storm. Check out the Message Boards for her show HERE. See ya then.
