PBS will be airing Steve Job’s video obituary tonight at 10 PM. The doc is titled Steve Jobs–One Last Thing that will follow “the ups and downs and ups of his career and of the products he helped create or understood how to sell. But in broad terms it won’t tell you anything about Jobs you couldn’t have just assumed — that he was a brilliant, difficult person whom some people loved and other people did not — and in narrower terms offers nothing that has not already been discussed at great length elsewhere.”

I’ll be DVRing it for sure, so thought I’d pass it on!

About

Although comedy is her profession, Nadine has accomplished a lot in her young age. She is a national champion black belt, a world-class soccer player, and an avid snowboarder. She started playing soccer at the age of 4, and continued playing through college where she majored in Biology, but quickly realized her destiny was to tell jokes, not to wear a lab coat. So she decided to be funny while finishing her Bachelors Degree in biology and continued on to get her M.B.A. Nadine’s comedy style is much like her athleticism, fearless. She’s made her way up the comedy ladder very quickly, and has become a club favorite at many of the country’s top comedy clubs, including the Improv chain. Performing in the Boston Comedy Festival and being noted as the “one of the youngest and brightest up and comers” and traveling to the Middle East to entertain the troops are just a few of her notable accomplishments. These days Nadine splits time between the stage, a radio studio, her computer blogging, and a television studio. Nadine’s TV, Radio, Writing credits include: national commercials, talking head roles on E! Entertainment, Showtime’s Hot Tamales Live, The Skinny: Fat Free News, The Sunny Side of The Truth: Real World Hollywood, TVgasm, Zazreport, Daddy’s Girls, Jerseylicious, celebrity interviews on Mania TV, a weekly half-hour television show that syndicates to colleges across the country for National Lampoon and a nightly radio show on XM Satellite Radio.

    I present further evidence that people are dangerously close to thinking Steve Jobs was Jesus (particularly now that he’s dead, which makes everybody a better person):

    Job’s sister recently said: “Steve didn’t die. He achieved death.”

    Ha! He’s going to be like 2Pac–he’s still alive!

    This should be interesting – there’s what 30 docs out already.

    During lunch some friends and I discussed Steve Jobs after he died. One friend was surprised to learn how evil he could be. I told her, “Off the top of your head name one true genius who was a great people person. None comes to mind? That’s cause most geniuses can’t get along with other people – it’s their limitation.” If they’re fortunate, they leave a legacy that outlasts memory of their personality.
