The New Pornographers’ A.C. Newman guest starred on Comedy Central’s Drunk History last night. As Pitchfork points out, Newman played the role of Thomas Edison narrated by Chris Parnell and Michael McKean. Newman tweeted the following about his experience shooting the episode:

Memories of my #Drunk History shoot: I was too scared to speak to @MJMcKean, make-up thought I had won a contest to be there.

Finally summoned the guts to watch my brief #DrunkHistory appearance… Good Lord, I'm a genius!
