" In this series, we ask comedians to name the comics they enjoy, then we ask those people, too. Last week, Brendon Walsh chose Hugh Moore. Below, Moore talks about Randall Park, a fellow L.A. comedian and Funny or Die contributor. Come back next week to read about Park&amp;#039;s pick.           Randall Park and I met a long time ago. There was an open mic at the Improv out here in L.A., and afterward we spoke to each other. It was just one of those nights when everyone sucked but us. And I&amp;#039;m kind of quiet and shy, even shyer than Shy Tony, so it was a lot for me. Then I didn&amp;#039;t see him for a long time, and I was thinking, Oh man, what a waste. That guy was so funny. Did he just quit or leave? I would tell my friends about him. &amp;quot;This funny Asian guy.&amp;quot; And they were like, &amp;quot;Yeah, right, you didn&amp;#039;t see someone that funny.&amp;quot; And then maybe a few years later, I was working for Wild &amp;#039;n Out on MTV. We added some new cast members, and Randall was one of the guys. We walked up to each other and were like, were you that guy at the Improv? Now he&amp;#039;s shooting a lot of videos, and they&amp;#039;re hilarious. There&amp;#039;s one called &amp;quot;Fight,&amp;quot; one called &amp;quot;Siamese Dad&amp;quot; (above). &amp;quot;Siamese Dad&amp;quot; is self-explanatory, but it&amp;#039;s so ridiculous.  The things that he likes \u2014 I know &amp;quot;out of the box&amp;quot; is an overused term, but he goes for the different, the things you wouldn&amp;#039;t expect. I try to do the same thing. \u2014As told to Paul Schrodt PLUS: Meet the Other Comic&amp;#039;s Comics &amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;gt; Follow The Culture Blog on RSS and on Twitter at @ESQCulture.
