I live, write, act, and perform comedy in New York City. I like Tivo, Kurt Vonnegut and not Pepsi. I’m 2 inches taller than 6 feet.
Also, I’m 1/2 of the sketch comedy group BriTANicK (rhymes with Titanic).

&lt;p&gt;Several times while naked in the hallway, I’d hear the elevator ding and then have to SPRINT back inside before my neighbors could arrive and discover a whole lot more man ass than they’d normally encounter on a Wednesday night. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Fun fact: I drew the Bartman you can see on the chalkboard and I’m more proud of that than anything else I’ve ever done. &lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://thenickkocher.com/post/23671931433</link><guid>http://thenickkocher.com/post/23671931433</guid><pubDate>Thu, 24 May 2012 10:33:17 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>SPOILER ALERT!!

We first met Danny...</title><description>&lt;iframe width="400" height="225" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/mephJf3-zYE?wmode=transparent&amp;autohide=1&amp;egm=0&amp;hd=1&amp;iv_load_policy=3&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;rel=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormalCxSpFirst"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;A Monologue For Three (featuring Danny Pudi)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle"&gt;&lt;span&gt;We first met Danny Pudi three years  ago when we performed with his sketch group ‘Siblings of Doctors’ at  the 2008 San Francisco Sketchfest. It was the first time we had ever  performed live as BriTANicK and we were so nervous our eyeballs were  vibrating. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle"&gt;&lt;span&gt;Danny, along with the other members  of the group, Rasika Mathur and Ranjit Souri, talked to us like they were inspirational football coaches (in a movie that still gives me goosebumps). They were unbelievably  nice and supportive and we had a fantastic time performing with them.  It was the best welcome to the comedy world we could have received. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle"&gt;&lt;span&gt;If you have not yet watched him on  ‘Community’, you need to get on that and introduce a whole boatload of  laughter into your life. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;———————-Joke I Love From An Earlier Draft—————————&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Brian&lt;/strong&gt;: Nick, none of this is Shakespeare.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Nick&lt;/strong&gt;: Ohhh. &lt;em&gt;(then, doing a Gilbert Gottfried impression)&lt;/em&gt; Look at this! I’m so ticked off that I’m molting!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Brian&lt;/strong&gt;: That’s Iago.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Nick&lt;/strong&gt;: Yeah! From Shakespeare’s &lt;em&gt;Othello&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

3 years ago, we...</title><description>&lt;iframe width="400" height="225" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/c1-Oep9uNwM?wmode=transparent&amp;autohide=1&amp;egm=0&amp;hd=1&amp;iv_load_policy=3&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;rel=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Eagles Are Turning People Into Horses: The Movie&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;3 years ago, we wrote this in about 7 days and then filmed in less than 2. It was 30% the most fun I’ve ever had on a set and 70% the most stressful thing I could have ever imagined.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When I called Laura, the lovely girl who plays Hannah, and asked her to act in the film (this was 3 days before we started shooting it) she wondered if she’d be done in time to watch the Oscars, which were that Sunday night. I said absolutely, and assured her we’d have filmed all her scenes well before then.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We began filming Saturday morning at 9am. On Sunday, at around 6pm it became apparent that we weren’t going to be done in time for the Oscars. Later, at 5am, it became apparent that we weren’t going to be done while it was still dark out. We finally finished filming at 10am on Monday morning.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For the most part, we filmed this chronologically so if you watch  carefully you’ll see us all getting more and more tired and Laura getting angrier and angrier with me as the film progresses. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Eternities of gratitude to Laura, Alex, Noah, Pete (who failed a Spanish final to help us finish this beast), and everyone else who helped out. We hope you like the short film you exchanged your health and sanity for.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;P.S. If you’re wondering what the most ridiculous line in the movie is, the correct answer is “If he paints me, I’ll be &lt;em&gt;horsed &lt;/em&gt;too!”.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://thenickkocher.com/post/2909403646</link><guid>http://thenickkocher.com/post/2909403646</guid><pubDate>Mon, 24 Jan 2011 11:13:18 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>They’re gonna need to come up with a new word for this,...</title><description>&lt;iframe width="400" height="240" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/L64c5vT3NBw?wmode=transparent&amp;autohide=1&amp;egm=0&amp;hd=1&amp;iv_load_policy=3&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;rel=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;They’re gonna need to come up with a new word for this, because ‘adorable’ doesn’t quite cover it.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://thenickkocher.com/post/2613214599</link><guid>http://thenickkocher.com/post/2613214599</guid><pubDate>Wed, 05 Jan 2011 16:32:36 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>anthonyking:

&lt;p&gt;Things like this:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. Mississippi&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Holy madre de Cristo, where to begin? Mississippi is our fattest and poorest state. On the other hand, it leads the nation in lynchings and ranks second in infant death. So. Yeah. Mississippi is widely believed by many not to be a state at all, but an especially despondent Faulknerian run-on sentence that everyone quit trying to comprehend a long time ago.&lt;span&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
