During our month long tribute to Top 10 lists I wanted to document some of my favorite wrestling moves of all time. There were so many to choose from it was hard to pick only 10, so I tried to select ones that had a small story linked to me behind them. I will preface this with these are listed in no particular order.
1. The Canadian Destroyer
Leading up to the massive third season debut of Lobster Lobby, we are recalling some of our more favorite episodes from passed seasons.
This was a special edition episode where Ian recalls one of his favorite Lobster letters while setting the studio on fire. Yes, the fire was real. Yes, he was filming in a clothes closet in his apartment. Remember it can all be yours for $5.9999

This was one of my personal favorites because of the large amount of Japanese weirdness involved with it. From Professor Himonya, Japanese Ronald McDonald, the Dole Banana guy with Peelander-Z, to Jumpin' Jeff Farmer! This episode has it all! Also Ian's head gets smashed a few times.

here's one that's pretty straightforward. not much to add except that you get a set of cXnX bumper stixerz if we use your sighting, so keep em coming. unfortchz, due tue legalness, we aren't really allowed to say whether we think our submissions are actually Andy or not.--cXnX mGmX
"hey guys. settle a bet. i saw andy kaufman last week and my work buddy keeps arguing with me about it. it was at the Dix Ford dealership off 30.
i went to look at new trucks and this dude jumped out from behind one right when i came onto the lot. sure i was pissed i almost clocked the guy but i was like wait a minute i know this guy it's andy kaufman. so i laughed and told him i was a big fan. he's like a big fan of what? trucks? me too then started pretending like he was in a truck and beeping like he was backing up. it was funny and we just kept lookin around the lot.
so like 5 minutes later i'm lookin at a truck and he pops up from the drivers side window. he didnt scare me that time but my buddy jumped like ten feet. so we just started ignorin him but he follow us around. we were circlin this one pickup and he came runnin from the otehr side of the lot and took a flying leap over the hood. he didnt clear the hood. so like now a salesman came out and was just sorta starin from the doorway, like he was pretty pissed off. andy walked off the lot and i turned to my buddy. i was like, dude that's andy kaufman and he was telling me no no no.
the salesman came up to us and asked if everything was ok and we said yes. about 5 minutes later andy comes back up to the lot sorta sneaky and starts following us around just lookin over my shoulder and sayin ahh mmhmm yes. then out of nowhere he says you don't want that. i said what? he said you don't want a truck. look at this bike. it's got two wheels. two! we tried to ignore him again but he kept talkin about how great the bike was. he started singin "infinity mi-iles." he told us you can't pop a wheelie in a truck and started ringing the bell. he was saying look? see? a bell! way better than a horn.
then he started growling. he was talking about prices and shoving paperwork in your face. he was like thats your name right? thats your address right? what's you're address? hey see this bike? someone famous owned it. who was it. he was on tv. i said was it andy kaufman? he said no no that guy from the one show i cant remember. he started trying to force me to sit on the bike and shoving the bike in between my legs saying how natural it feels. wel that was about it. i thanked andy and went inside to use the head.
i came back out and the salesman and andy were screamin at each other. the salesman was tellin andy to leave and andy said you owe me 32.50 for the day! as i was getting in my truck, the owner John Dix (you know the commercials right?) came out of his office with a gun... shit. i got the hell out of there. the whole time my buddy was takin pictures. i said why are you taking pictures if that's not andy kaufman. he didnt have an answer for that.
He left us with a flyer which i kept it was nothing like bike andy was trying to sell us.
so you guys are the experts what do you think? what do i get if you post this?"

This episode has tons of dancing and legal issues!
Leading up to the massive third season debut of Lobster Lobby, we are recalling some of our more favorite episodes from passed seasons.
Season 2 was the first time we could do Lobster Lobby together. The original season was done with Ian emailing me random clips and myself editing as I saw fit. This was filmed in an abandoned amphitheater in Jamestown, NY and Ian performed now with a concept of what we wanted the episode's theme to be.
Episode 11's theme was "Ian losing his wallet" and the rest of the clips in the show just happen organically from Paul's diseased mind.

Construx Redux is a lazy way of us maintaining content while we are working on the massive release of Lobster Lobby Season 3. Also, its also a way to show some of our newer viewers some things that may have been lost in the shuffle of our massive collection or original content.
This was a concept dreamed up by Paul to where a man is cursed with nightmares of Peanut Butter & Jelly infecting his subconscious. To this day, it's still one of my favorite concepts we have done. It was very fun to ask unsuspecting people to participate in this strange sketch. We ended up with a fairly high success rate with people helping us with this sketch but I'm sure they were left with alot of questions afterwards.

Season One was always special for me because we did not know what it would turn into. Ian shot footage in his clothes closet in his Chicago apartment and filmed about an hours worth of alcohol powered footage with no real concept to work off of.
This episode is full of awkward pauses, unnecessary editing, a confusing nonlinear plot, cats and my favorite line of possibly the whole series - "SOMEONE IS IN HERE ... GO AWAY!!" The song used is Scholomo's Hotboxing the Cockpit. a song we end up using often in Construx projects.
Enjoy the majesty of episode 11.
