Honey badger randall

This article is from the archive of our partner .There's a real live person behind the fictional Honey Badger viral star and turns out he has a life off of the Internet, too. Just barely. Above we have proof that the Honey Badger has a face, from what TMZ claims is the first ever footage of Randall, who narrates the famed badger along with a host of other animal videos on his YouTube channel Randall's Wild Wild World of Animals. But even though we see his face in human form, looking quite uncomfortable in this TMZ footage, from what we can tell via his life exploits, Randall is very much a Web being.Since the meme took off, Randall has taken the next logical step for any Internet star and written a book. After scoring the book deal last September, Randall has already released Honey Badger Don't Care: Randall's Guide to Crazy Nasty Ass Animals. We guess the actual writing had to happen offline, unless he blogged the whole thing, which from reading the table of contents -- all we can preview on Barnes & Noble -- seems plausible. From what we can tell, the book is a compilation of his YouTube narrations written down next to pictures of animals. This book review over at Book Goggles seems to confirm these suspicions. Frankly put, this is a book about animals that's written for those of us who aren't into the long Latin names or dry paragraphs about animal habits. Randall condenses all of these facts into a few pages per animal and it's incredibly fun.Condensed and funny ... sounds like the Internet. He also has an animated TV show in the works, reports TMZ, meaning he presumably spends time offline doing that. Unless it's one of those YouTube shows or web series.We know IRL Randall is currently spending his time hocking his book. But even on his tour, the venues refer to Randall -- who has no last name, by the way -- as "honey badger." The badger had a meet and greet in Los Angeles earlier this week. And Randall's Twitter feed, informs us he is in Portland now.And even when he's doing real-world things, like getting fast food, he can't function without paying homage to his Internet self. "I can’t speak too loudly when I go out. It’s a drag. I have to impersonate people when I go to a drive-through for example," he told Forbes's Michael Humphrey last April. "Sometimes, I’ll forget what I’ve done and when I get to the window, I say, 'thank you, doll,' and they’re all, 'Randall? Randall!'"This article is from the archive of our partner The Wire.

Courtesy of Colleen and Keith BeggWith over 34 million views on YouTube within a year of its upload, “The Crazy Nastyass Honey Badger” has done everything from spark water-cooler conversation to inspire the nickname of a Heisman Trophy candidate. The video couples National Geographic footage of a honey badger with hilarious narration by a man who simply goes by “Randall.” Its success has led to a publishing deal for Randall, who stopped by the Stanford bookstore yesterday to sign his debut book “Honey Badger Don’t Care: Randall’s Guide to Crazy, Nastyass Animals.” Viewers are left curious, however–who exactly is Randall? Our requests for official photos of the man behind the video were met with simply more high-quality photos of honey badgers. Intermission sat down for a Q&A with this incognito character to answer this pressing question. It must be mentioned, however, that Randall is (very likely) the fictional brainchild of another man: comedian Christopher Gordon (or at least, so we suspect). It quickly became evident that although Randall and Gordon were both (inevitably) present during the interview, Randall was the one willing to share his thoughts.Intermission: Who is Randall?Randall: I [Randall] was born on a tiny island known as Manhattan. I went to St. Olaf College for a while, where I studied theater. I grew up with a love and a deep affinity for animals. My papa was the cameraman for Mutual of Omaha’s “Wild Kingdom,” so since a very early age I was exposed to and always loved animals. The playwriting thing wasn’t really working out, and I had to do something, so I just fell back on my natural talent for narration. I mean, ever since I was little I’ve been narrating things.Where did your inspiration for the honey badger video come from?In the ‘90s, I met my assistant, and we worked off Broadway together. Years later, he showed me that video, and I just thought it was amazing. So, it was just one of those things that was like, this is a no-brainer! I’d say about 85 percent of that was just natural reaction to what was going on. It just caught on! It suddenly became my mission to educate people through humor about animals. The take-home message is that we’re not alone on this planet, and there’s got to be a better way to get this message out.How did this book come about?For years, I noticed that a lot of wildlife, nature and animal picture books weren’t telling their readers the real story about these animals. I said, ‘You know what? It’s about time someone writes a book about wildlife nature and just tells it like it is.’ It was just sort of natural. The video

Basically wipe off any crud the carriers decide to install on it. In fact, that should be the option when you first launch your device when you get it. Boot to Google Android, or Carrier/Manufacturer Android. Should be included on every device.who is honey badger randall.Not bad for a $800 dollar device, available for one carrier.
