Best in Show
The tension is palpable, the excitement is mounting and the heady scent of competition is in the air as hundreds of eager contestants from across America prepare to take part in what is undoubtedly one of the greatest events of their lives -- the Mayflower Dog Show. The canine contestants and their owners are as wondrously diverse as the great country that has bred them.
Guf. Confession
This is not an interview, this is a confession. Revelations of the artist in the form of a monologue. Guf about Keti Topuria's betrayal, drugs and a new girl.
Mascots
Eager contestants don big heads and furry suits to vie for the title of World's Best Mascot.
The Comedy
Indifferent to the notion of inheriting his father's estate, a restless, aging New Yorker passes time with his friends in games of mock sincerity, irreverence, and recreational cruelty towards those around them.
