Arj Barker wants you to LYAO

You probably recognize him as Jemaine and Bret’s buddy in Flight of the Conchords. But in case you didn’t know, Arj Barker has a solid stand-up routine. The dude also happens to have released a new DVD called LYAO, and we’ve hooked it up with Warner Music Group to provide three (3) giveaway copies for our readers. It’s definitely a good laugh and what I appreciate is how he works a theme of positivity into his observational comedy. Other highlights for me are Arj commenting on texting, the condescending nature of new parents, and talking to a bottle of water. If you want to score a copy, just tell us something funny in the comments. We’ll announce the winners live a week from today when our radio show Keep It Like A Secret resumes. Today’s show has been postponed due to Dave’s last minute trip deep into the heart of the Amazon to inspire native tribes.

    this could just as easily be an ad for a new “hip” coffee shop if you change the wording and add some logo that your buddy made on his macbook

    This kinda looks like something that your parents would think is funny, and would try to relate to you about
    “Hey! I got this new comedy DVD. You like this guy too, don’t you???”
    “No dad, I quit watching stand-up when we watched that Dane Cook movie you rented back in 2006.”

    You had me at “giveaway.”

    Wait — that isn’t an AT&T/Blackberry print ad? My bad.

    I never thought I’d see the day where I’d type ‘bulk yeast’ into the Google search bar.

    I didn’t realize Murray had dark hair in real life! He doesn’t even look New Zealandish in this photo.
