CollegeHumor Releases Best of Ben Schwartz Playlist
In celebration of the premiere of House of Lies this Sunday at 10pm on Showtime, CollegeHumor has released a “Best of Ben Schwartz” Playlist. CH took their favorite twenty one sketches I’ve done for the site over the past five years and served them up on an all you can eat buffet. Get ready for varying degrees of youth and hair. An enormous thank you to CollegeHumor’s staff. It’s insane how many short films we have done together. I will always love you.

Drinking Soda Contest (Feat. Ben Schwartz)
You thought Amir and I were going to stop at just one contest? Don’t be insane. Prepare yourself for The HIGHLY ANTICIPATED sequel to Stay Awake Contest. I present to you…Drinking Soda Contest.
Stay Awake Contest (Feat. Ben Schwartz) now with BLOOPERS
Here’s a new short I made over at CollegeHumor with the intensely talented Amir Blumenfeld. It answers the question that has tormented people’s minds for centuries- who would win in a Stay Awake Contest…Ben or Amir? The answer lies in the video below. Bloopers right below the video. Enjoy!
Me Being a Nerd Volume Three- Bleep Bloop: Halo Firefight
Collegehumor’s Jeff Rubin invited me to join him and friends via satellite on this week’s episode of Bleep Bloop, Collegehumor’s video game show. Let the wild nerd rumpus start!
You Lie with Joe Wilson feat. Corbin Bernson
Joe Wilson, the guy who yelled “YOU LIE” during Obama’s health care reform speech, just got his own MTV reality/prank show! Produced by the guys at Funny or Die, starring Corbin Bernson, me and Codi Fischer. Written and Directed by Eric Appel.
Hardly Working: Hypnotist
Here is a semi-improvised short film I made with the CollegeHumor guys about the world’s greatest hypnotist. It was conceived and shot in roughly thirty minutes.
Valentine’s Break Up
In honor of Valentine’s Day, here are the out-takes for my short film Valentine’s Break Up. The short follows a couple taking their relationship to the next level on Valentine’s Day. It features the lovely Sarah Burns (Flight of the Conchords, I Love You, Man) who has been in a handful of my other shorts as well as Eugene Cordero, Will Hines and Sue Galloway.
How Many Times Has This Happened To You?
I act in this new short, written and produced by the guys at CollegeHumor. It follows a day in the life of an infomercial actor.
Use A Computer: The Game Show
Collegehumor brings you a game show where contestants over the age of forty challenge each other in a battle of computer wits. Fellow Hot Sauce teammate Gil Ozeri and I play the announcers Mark and Carl.
Mayne Event: New York Media
Here is the Mayne Event that aired on NFL Countdown this past Sunday. We filmed over an hour worth of footage for this two minute segment, so they had to cut a bunch of stuff to keep the piece short enough for air. Unfortunately, that meant cutting my food critic character going up to a 300 pound lineman and saying “I like my cheese like I like my women, white with lots of holes.” Actually, probably a smart move by ESPN to leave that part out.
