TEDxVancouver - Nardwuar : Do It Yourself!
When in doubt... open another tab.
Nardwuar the Human Serviette (born John Ruskin, July 5, 1968) is a Canadian celebrity interviewer and musician from Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.[1] He is the lead singer and keyboardist for The Evaporators and plays in Thee Goblins.He legally changed his name in 1986, and argues that "no one refers to Iggy Pop as 'James Osterberg'".[2] When asked to explain his name, Nardwuar once quipped "Nardwuar equals dumb silly name, like Sting; Human means human, as in Human Fly; and Serviette is something you can't get in the U.S. because down there they're called napkins."[3]
Nard has more recently gained popularity for his unique and memorable interview style.
I discovered NARD when he interviewed one of my favorite groups NERD.
