Preview: BRIAN POSEHN talks life as a Heavy Metal Dad on new album, THE FARTIST

This article is more than 12 years old and may not have been updated since our last site redesign. It may contain outdated information or could be missing images.

I met Brian Posehn once. I went to see him at the late Zanies Comedy Club in Vernon Hills, Illinois, where I chatted with him briefly after the show and handed him a copy of a comic book that I’d written… and thought he might enjoy (being into metal and horror and all). Posehn is a funny guy… but he’s also a Dad – a certified “Rock Father” in his own right – and now he’s bringing life as a Heavy Metal Dad (speaking of which, you should enter this) into his act with THE FARTIST, a new stand-up special that made it’s debut on Netflix earlier this year and comes to DVD and CD on June 25 via New Wave Dynamics.

Posehn covers some familiar territory on THE FARTIST – important topics like when to show your kids STAR WARS for the first time (I wonder if he’s read this?) and how much you should tip a stripper (a question for every parent, and one I’ve asked often). Check out a preview widget below…

For more on what Brian is up to, follow him on twitter… because his personal website hasn’t been updated since his last album (which was a few years ago).

Ya know, for old time’s sake… let’s watch METAL BY NUMBERS again:
