• We’re totally digging the latest multimedia venture of Kevin Smith and Scott Mosier, SModcast, and missed it when it didn’t come up last week. Happily, Episode #4 of Kevin and Scott’s excellent ongoing discussion of everything is BACK this week with Episode #4, which I’ve got streaming as this is writing. Join the streaming fun for yourself and check out Kevin’s summary of this week’s fun-filled episode:

• We’ve just heard an announcement from the UK of the planned release of two My Name is Earl-themed items that feature Lee’s voice — A talking bottle opener AND a talking keychain. The items both say the same phrases, and they are the following odd choices:

1. Ahmm, number 86: Stole a car from a one-legged girl.
2. Ah, don’t worry about it, I been stabbed by plenty of girls.
3. Sometimes ya gotta fight crazy with crazy.
4. Ain’t no use runnin’ fool! I know where your momma parks your house!
5. Woulda been more upset if I wasn’t so doped up.
6. Wakey wakey, hands off snakey!

Both items are due to arrive worldwide this June/July.

• Hey, Alanis fans — The Rock N’ Roll Hall of Fame website currently lists Dogma’s God as number 23 of a list of 26 potential future inductees (with your votes being considered). Her write-up:

• Last night’s episode of the struggling CBS comedy “Rules of Engagement” had a story twist where the three male leads compare their “Battle Scars” from the night before. A very big homage (though we’re not sure intential one) to Jason and Joey in “Chasing Amy”.
• The guys over at Solar Shock Pictures do a regular podcast, the latest one being titled “Aftershock” episode #20. In this cast they’ve created their own audio commentary for ‘Clerks II’. Sometimes entertaining, sometimes insightful, and sometimes, well, off-topic, it’s worth a listen for fans looking to hear a fan approach to the film.
• Attention View Askew DVD completists! The Season 5 DVD set of “Degrassi: The Next Generation” will be out on June 26th. This is the season with “Lexicon of Love Parts 1 & 2”, which are the Kevin and Jay episodes that did NOTappear on the “Jay & Silent Bob Do Degrassi” mini-set (they were aired after the set was struck). No word on another View Askew Degrassi release, so this may be your only way to own ‘em! Mark the calendar.
