Who could be greater than Eric Andre and Hannibal Buress, the comedy team behind the Eric Andre Show on Adult Swim? No one. Back with a second season of the absurd anti-talk show, Andre spoke with Dave Schilling of Vice about the insane birthday parties he throws for himself every year in Los Angeles. The opening:
“Vice:
I hope I’m not revealing too much, but your birthday parties are the stuff of legend for a certain segment of people here in LA. They go pretty much all day and all night. Why hold such a massive event every year?
Eric Andre:
You know, I don’t have any god, so I don’t have any holidays, so it’s my only time of the year to like, go all out. Just be fully self-indulgent.
Vice:
Was there a clown or something this year?
Eric Andre:
No, there was a camel, a horse, a goat, a bunny, a 300 pound stripper, two Santa Clauses, we had John K. who created Ren & Stimpy drawing caricatures. I think he left early, actually. We had a bunch of fireworks, and I got a vial of ether.
Vice:
Just one vial of ether? Did you not share?
Eric Andre:
No, you can get pretty far off one vial, since just huffing a little. It’s not like you’re chugging it. Don’t drink it.”
