They released videos for versions of We Are The World and Do They Know It's Christmas. The latter should be considered a modern day holiday classic. The song boasts a huge roster of comedians including; Patton Oswalt, Chris Hardwick, Paul F. Tompkins, Tig Notaro, Jimmy Pardo, Brian Posehn, Riki Lindhome, Kate Micucci, Paul Scheer, June Diane Raphael, Doug Benson, Weird Al Yankovic and the funnyman who put the entire thing together, Scott Aukerman. Tom Lennon and Ed Helms also make appearances as David Bowie and Mick Jagger. The song itself is elementary at best, yet that's part of the charm. With lyrics like "It's Christmas time, don't be afraid" and "Feed the world. Let them know it's Christmas time again" it sounds as if the original songwriters simply put every Christmas carol cliché they could find into a blender and this concoction is what they came up with.
