Charlie Sanders’ “Second Fattest Man” video is in this week’s “Showdown” at atom.com. If you are so inclined, please go to atom.com/showdown, register and vote for “Second Fattest Man”. They show the winner on Comedy Central, which we think would be cool. Voting is open through the end of the week.

I totally understand if you don’t want to do this. It’s a blatant gimmick to boost their registrations, and force word-of-mouth for their site. Then again, atom.com isn’t so bad. Used to be Atom Films, which was a decent site. I met some of the folks who work there currently at the Channel 101 awards, and they seemed cool. And they make original films, including one featuring Curtis Gwinn — so maybe they’re cool?

Also, I really like “Second Fattest Man” and want people to see it. Yeah, it’s a little long. But it’s weird and Charlie’s script and performance are hilarious. I almost kinda like that it’s long, if only because I feel like I’m fighting back against all the pressures I feel to be “successful” which I put in quotes because my version of success is having a video on the front page of YouTube.

If nothing else, please listen below to an excerpt of Charlie’s “eating” noise:

  1. I would also like a a clip of your own eating noise from the Kartoon Korner of “Fun Squad”

    Actually, put Fun Squad on Atom Films, too.

  2. Please send me an MP3 of Charlie’s eating noise so Purnell and I may play it on a loop tonight as the signature “midnight song.”

  4. Can we get this audio clip into the hands of a noteable DJ, so they can somehow make it a rap beat that every person who freestyles uses in rap battles.
