Back with a castmate from a trip to Los Angeles, 27-year-old Trevor Moore, former host of local public access comedy show “The Trevor Moore Show” and currently one of five members of New York-based sketch comedy troupe the Whitest Kids U’ Know, decided to introduce his colleagues (and New York Times columnist Amanda Stern) to the green fairy with a few rounds of absinthe. What Moore forgot is that, in the U.S., the hallucinogenic drink is sold without grande wormwood, which robs it of its mystical effects. Cue the laugh track. The Whitest Kids’ second season runs currently on the Independent Film Channel.
