Paul F Tompkins is great!

He's a principal on my beloved Thrilling Adventure Hour, a new-time stage show and podcast in the style of old-time radio. I've seen them live twice.

His very excellent improv comedy podcast SPONTANEANATION! with tons of great guests. Link to a live show video.

He had his own fake news show with puppets briefly, No You Shut Up!

He was main cast on Bajillion Dollar Properties, a fake reality show about Hollywood real estate agents.

PFT was in Tangled with a minor part as Short Thug, a passable rap name.

He and his longtime friend Tawny Newsome (who plays Mariner Beckett) co-host the official Star Trek podcast.

Plus he's basically the king of podcast guesting. He has been in everyone else's show. And who can forget his impeccable style.

He is, to quote Dan McCoy, a prolific motherfucker! I always enjoy his work.

I love Paul F. Tompkins. He pops up EVERYWHERE.

For example, did you know he was in There Will Be Blood!?

I did not! Did you know he's the MC in Tenacious D: The pick of Destiny?

I've actually never seen it, but I guess I should. I discovered him through Mr. Show and then his YouTube series Speakeasy, which was really great. His chemistry with Bob Odenkirk was really fun to watch.
