nprfreshair: Bill Hader — who is leaving Saturday Night Live after eight years this weekend — on his audition for the show: I remember getting in the elevator for my audition and there was a guy next to me who had a backpack full of props and wigs and things, and I went, ‘Oh, my God, that guy is so prepared, I have nothing, I have no props.’ And that was Andy Samberg. And Andy Samberg said he was looking at me going, ‘Oh, that guy has no props. He doesn’t need props.’ And that was the first time we met, was in that elevator. Awesome.

Stream The National Trouble Will Find Me - Stereogum

What a week. Daft Punk stole the news, but the new National album is streaming too. First single is pretty good, so why wouldn’t you listen?

Related to earlier: One of my favorite Dan Bern bootlegs, with a killer 1-2 punch of New American Language —> Jerusalem near the end. Hell of a show.

College Football's Games of the Century: The Tie Will Be Unbroken

In 1966, Notre Dame head coach Ara Parseghian made a decision that would rattle the constituency of the sport.

This is the game (other than maybe the 1987 Rose Bowl) that I would have loved to have seen as a student.

We recently worked with Art Production Fund and New Museum to complete a series of hand painted roll down gates on the Bowery in NYC’s Lower Manhattan. The gates caught the attention of The Man Repeller, Refinery29, Sotheby’s & more.
