Interview With The Cast Of MTV's "Human Giant"

It's always nice to see your friends make it big and we couldn't be happier for the three guys from MTV's Human Giant: Paul Scheer, Aziz Ansari and Rob Heubel.  We’ve known them for years and they’re still as down-to-earth and cool as they’ve always been. Tonight is their big night and I'm going to ask them some questions about the show. 

(dials Paul)

Streeter: Hey Paul, are you nervous about the big premiere tonight?

Paul: Hello Mr. Seidell, this is Paul's assistant, Rebecca. 

Streeter: Oh...Hi, is Paul around?  I had a few questions about the show.

Rebecca: No.  You can always call his publicist, Nate.  

Streeter: Oh, OK.  Thanks.  

(dials publicist)

Nate: Yell-o?

Streeter: Hi Nate, this is Streeter Seidell from CollegeHumor.  I'm an old friend of Paul's.  We used to watch Lost together every week.  I was wondering if you could put me in touch with him?  I have some questions about his new show.  I'm trying to plug it on the website.

Nate: Website?  I don't know if you heard yet, Peter, but Paul has a TV show coming out.  He can't waste time talking to geeks from the world wide website. 

Streeter: I hardly think that's fair.  Human Giant started out as a series of web videos so it definitely relates.  Plus, the website I work for is pretty popular.  

Nate: How many peeps we talking?

Streeter: What...?

Nate: How many peeps hit your geek-spot every month?

Streeter: Around six million, plus it's a very influential demograph...

Nate: No can do, homo.  Don't call me again.  If you absolutely must talk to someone, call MTV's PR department.  Number in three, two, one...347-2283.

(hangs up)

Streeter: Hi...hi, this going to sound strange but I'm being bounced around trying to get a hold of Paul Scheer.  I was given this number by Nate, his publicist.

Man: Que?

Streeter: Pardon me?

Man: No Ingles, my friend.  No Ingles.

Streeter: Is this 347-2283?

Man: Si, my friend.

Streeter: Oh, I was told this was MTV's PR department.  

Man: Que?  No Ingles, my friend. 

Streeter: Right...thanks.  

(hangs up, dials Aziz)

Streeter: Hey Aziz, it's Street.  What's up with Paul, man?  He's got an assistant now and his publicist gives me a fake number for MTV?  What the fuck?  I'm trying to give you guys some free publicity, dude.  I gotta say, I'm pretty insulted by all of this.

Aziz:  Are you the coke guy?  You were supposed to be here a fucking hour ago, man. 

Streeter:  Huh? No, dude, it's Streeter from CollegeHumor. 

Aziz: How the FUCK did you get this number?

Streeter: What?  You gave it to me a year ago when we all went out to dinner. 

Aziz: I swear to god, if you ever call this number again I'll have Big from 'Rob and Big' come and beat the faggot out of you.  I know him now.  We're tight, like fucking blood brothers.

Streeter:  Haha, but seriously dude, do you want answer a few questions for CollegeHumor for this plug I'm putting together?  Clearly Paul is too Hollywood to do it.

Aziz: Your name is gay. 

Streeter: Dude...what happened to you?

Aziz: Are you sure you're not the cocaine guy?

Streeter: No, but dude, I'm worried abou...

(hangs up, Dials Rob)

Streeter: Hi Rob, it's Streeter from CollegeHumor.  We don't really know each other that well but Paul and Aziz aren't taking my questions.  I'm trying to get you a plug on the site.

Rob: Are you the guy with the coke?
 
Streeter: No, I'm...

(hangs up, Phone rings)

Paul: Hey man, why didn't you tell me you started dealing?  You were supposed to be here an hour ago, man.

Streeter: Dude, what the hell, I'm not a coke dealer. What's up with you guy...
