Guess who is interviewing Philip Petit, the performer who tightrope-walked between the two towers in 1974 and subject of the award winning doco Man on Wire?
(Hint: It’s me. Also, I clearly don’t understand the notion of hinting.)
It’s at Cinema Nova on Wednesday the 15th, on Lygon street. More info will be posted when I stop giggling. Oh, and if you’re so inclined you can book tickets here.

Paul Verhoeven (right) is on Triple J, as host of the Weekend Breakfast Show. He is a writer and film critic for Yen Magazine, and insists he is a regular columnist for Horse and Hound magazine (unverified). He recently finished a weekly series for The Vine called Curiageous where he answered people's burning questions and drank his own urine. He enjoys ducks.
Luke Ryan (left) is a stand-up comic, writer, and general man-about-town. He is a news blogger and feature writer for The Vine and also writes for the music blog Electrorash and the street mag ThreeThousand. In 2009 he performed at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival in his oh so descriptively titled show 'Luke's Got Cancer'. It was funnier than it sounds.
Both of them spend more of their time then they should perusing the Internet and gaming. The Somewhat Ambitious is essentially the product of this excess.
