Michael Moore calls him a national treasure, while Courtney Love calls him “the biggest freak in the whole of Canada.” They’ve both been subjected to the, um, distinctive journalistic approach of Vancouver’s excitable, adenoidal and clad-in-plaid Nardwuar the Human Serviette, as have Gene Simmons and Henry Rollins, Jean Chrétien and Mikhail Gorbachev, Vanilla Ice and acid guru Timothy Leary (who responded to one Nardian query, “the vulgar sordidness of that question is Olympic!”). Over two discs, Doot Doola Doot Doo… Doot Doo! (Mint/Nardwuar) gathers exhaustive footage of Nardwuar’s pathologically well-researched pestering, perturbing and provoking of public personalities, be they pop stars or politicians. This occasionally results in his being tossed out on his ass (funny), beaten up (funnier) or having his prize Blowfly LPs stolen by a remorseless Snoop Dogg (fucking hilarious). Beyond the two Nard Wars specials from MuchMusic, this wacky fun-pack is bursting with extras, outtakes, extended interviews, commentary, odds and ends (mostly odds) and—special bonus—videos from Nard’s two garage-rock bands, the Evaporators and Thee Goblins. —Rupert Bottenberg
