Watch: Yo La Tengo Team With Ira Glass and Eugene Mirman for "Toymageddon"

The post-apocalyptic Christmas song is a great holiday tradition. "Weird Al" made two. Now, we've got one from Yo La Tengo. In "Toymageddon", the toys all come alive and attack the humans. "This American Life" host Ira Glass plays Santa, and comedian Eugene Mirman plays a murderous robot. Watch the song's video below.

"Toymageddon" will be featured in a comedy album called 2776: A Millennium of American Asskickery. The album is set to feature Andrew W.K., Aimee Mann, Robert Smigel, Paul F. Tompkins, Ed Helms, Will Forte, Martha Plimpton, and others. Proceeds from the album (and the "Toymageddon" single) will go to the charity OneKid OneWorld.

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...
