Watch: Anderson Cooper Devotes "360" Segment to Man Man Song About Wolf Blitzer

This is pretty high up on the list of things you'd least expect to come out of Anderson Cooper's mouth on his show "Anderson Cooper 360º": "Tonight I want to introduce you to the stylings of a band called Man Man." But you heard right. Cooper devoted the "RidicuList" segment on his show last night to the psych-rock Philadelphians after he heard that their song "End Boss" is about his CNN colleague Wolf Blitzer.

"You might think this is just typical lupine indie rock imagery," Cooper said, describing lyrics in which a wolf sneaks into houses and eats babies. (Kudos to him for typical lupine indie rock imagery.) "But... it is inspired than none other than Wolf Blitzer." The song appears on Man Man's new record On Oni Pond.

The intrepid Cooper not only dissects the song's lyrics, but also conducts an interview with frontman Ryan Kattner (Honus Honus), who is pictured wearing a tunic with Wolf Blitzer heads printed all over. Cooper also says he wishes he could go to a Man Man show and steal Kattner's tunic.

Et tu, Colbert?

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
