Neil also produced
an Off-Broadway musical,
Genius
Famous, written by
spurn's
own sound designer, Jason Atkinson, which premiered at the
2005
New
York International Fringe Festival. He
continues to work on a new feature-length screenplay set
during the fall of the Roman Empire (seriously). Neil
also endlessly bats
around ideas for other film and television projects, and
will one day find the time to write them all. Maybe.
In recent years, he has been associated with the
Brooklyn
Comedy Company. He sincerely believes that some
day soon, Elon and Co. will take over the world. Or at least
a borough.
 
In late 2004, Neil married Richelle
Rae Hart. As his beautiful bride owns a sword (which she
is quite proficient in using), he treads lightly at home.
In October 2006, Richelle
gave birth to spurn's
first official offspring,
Chandra Marie Hart Trivedi,
a name she will only hear in its entirety if she's in
big, big trouble. Chandra has so far been used as a prop
in three spurn
video podcasts, with more
to follow. As such, Neil looks forward to paying for her
therapy.

insatiable fascination for useless "top" pop
