  1. Hi Paul,

     

    Back in the spring, you did a Reddit AMA to help promote NYSU. I was reading through some of your answers (while sitting in this very same cubicle), and one of the things you had to say really struck me: Someone asked what kept you heading in a positive direction when you first broke into showbusiness. You said something along the lines of, "Therapy, it really helped."

     

    That was sort of a last-straw situation for me, and I finally sought out a therapist. We've been at it since April, and I've made some serious progress with some looooongstanding problems. I've always played music, and now I'm starting to generate reliable income doing something creative. I'm booking shows in- and out-of-town, taking classes, and actually approaching that quit-your-day-job threshold. I'm giving you some credit for that, thank you.

     

    My question for you is:

     

    How often do people call you Paulf?

  2. I was talking to a friend of mine who's also a CBB fan. He kept giving me shit in an Aukermaniacal fashion because I mispronounced "Chief Content Officer," like, three times in a row. The conversation couldn't move forward because he kept making fun of the "Cheap Cuntent Ossifer."

     

    I needed to reset the conversation, so I just said, "Heynong, man." He said it right back to me, and we continued with our discussion of some other dumb shit.

     

    Heynong man, it works!

  3. This is just classic internet shit. It's a shame that there are enough cowardly drips out there trying to get a rise out of people that it puts other people on guard more often than not. I am grateful to you for reaching out and understanding and, I hope, not holding this against me. And I am grateful for you and all the other thoughtful people like you for your support of my work.

    Edit: Yeah, that joke's not gonna land. Paul F. Tompkins is a wonderful person, and sarcasm doesn't work right on the internet.


  4. Hi Paul, long-time first-time etc.

     

    Forgive me if I'm straying too far from the intended format in asking about something Speakeasy-related in a Spont thread:

     

    In Scott Aukerman's Speakeasy interview, he asks you if you sit around at home in a Led Zeppelin t-shirt and Bermuda shorts. This question still bugs the hell out of me.

     

    I wonder what a nattily-dressed fellow such as yourself wears around the house. Do you change into sweatpants and a t-shirt at the end of the day and say, "Boy am I glad to get out of that monkey suit?" Are you more of a smoking jacket and satin pajamas man? Perhaps you're a behind-closed-doors nudist?

     

    I'll take my answer off the air, if at all.

  5. About a year ago, I went on a road trip with some friends and played episode 305 (Kulap & Howard plus Gino) just because it was the ep that was up that week. For the rest of the week, we were yelling "Summah!" all over Montana.

     

    It may seem like a bit of a darkhorse, but I can report from personal experience that ep 305 has created CBB and Whooch fans.
