Brother Theodore was quite a character. I first heard of him on a short lived TV show called Disinfo Nation, where he would deliver insane, vaguely prophetic and absolutely hilarious ranting monologues, in a thick German accent and looking about a bird’s chirp away from that great Zusammenkunft in the sky. An internet search led me to more clips of his ‘stand-up tragedy’, as he called it – dozens of TV appearances throughout the 80’s and 90’s. The man is a riot, he once even got deported from Switzerland for chess hustling. I didn’t even know you could DO that!
Here are two of my favorite clips from Disinfo Nation. Do yourself a favor and search for some of his videos, they’re all gut-busters.
‘That’s the Artist in me’
‘Hemorrhoids & Asteroids’
