A long time ago in a galaxy far far away…. well, ok maybe not THAT long ago, but in internet years it feels like forever since the musical Vlog Deathmatch challenge that Doc Pop and Irina (almost) pwned in May 2007! We decided to repost the video here during the week that our new producer Nick settles into San Francisco — he just drove cross country from Buffalo, NY! The Vlog Deathmatch is a community event that is open to anyone who wants to throw down a challenge to the vlogging peeps (basically, anyone with a camera) — so when we heard about the music video challenge, Irina knew she wanted to use her rapping skills (ahem) to kill the other vloggers! GRRR! Memorable Vlog Deathmatchers include Veronica Belmont, who won for best air guitar video and the Rey Brothers for some really unmentionable monologue challenge, but their promotional video is a winner in my book! Miss Behavens for Lake Titicaca in the Drunk Underwear Karaoke challenge and another mindblowing promo from Casey McKinnon! Vlog Deathmatch FTW!

This video was created while Eddie and Irina were still with their “sugar daddy” Podtech, and couldn’t have been done without Nora McDevitt and Lee Cummings.
