minor correction for the Proop-Dog: Claudia Christian was the indomitable Susan Ivanova from Babylon 5, which grand show that it was, wasn't a Star Trek series.

Can you tell me why I suddenly can't feel pain since I had acid n was somehow told by a god or summit how to manipulate my back into perfect posture n ripped what I can only describe as my nervous system from my spine n freed my brain from pain. I can still feel but I can bend in mad ways n yesterday fell. On a glass table cut myself bad n could not feel a thing. I really don't have a clue why. I've asked and it can be a rare genetic condition called conjetik I think. If you can answer this conundrum I'll be impressed. Have I just unplugged from the matrix? Oh n I have proof. Doctor's notes on recent history etc.

This reminds me of the first laugh I laughed after the 2016 election when we were all so stunned and horrified. We saw you at the Helium in Portland. You said, "What is this, a bad episode of the Sopranos?" Not for nothing but I just read on Google news that a group of conservative Republicans have sent a letter calling for impeachment.

Bernie thinks we should "move past" Trump's crimes. Senator Elizabeth Warren, the anti-corruption candidate, does not.

yes it's absolutely for the purposes of slowing down the courts the emoluments case is suspended indefinitely and he has appealed a subpoena for his financial and tax records, sitting in the 4th Dist Court in Virginia which is actually still moving, if I recalled that judge has said no. Case can go forward

i used to enjoy Greg Proops, but I have to unsubscribe. he is just not funny anymore. his show is good until he starts bashing the president EVERY EPISODE. and I cannot support his retarded political views.

I so LOVED the baseball awards podcast. It was better than Columbian tacos. If you're going to be old talk about the Queen of Soul or talk about the late Senator McCain but please do not talk about Steely f****** Dan. Oh geez did you just Discover animated features and graphic novels? Que F?

my late husband Jack and myself were aboard the Freedom of the Seas when the ProopKitten proceeded to lambast those obese Amurikans piloting their Rascal scooters to the ship's buffet, etc., and we were howling. we stopped long enough to catch our breath and dab away the tears when we realised that the couple sharing our table (they were HUGE) were glaring daggers at us, which only sent us into a renewed frenzy of laughter. needless to say, the humourless pair left. i am not sure if they went by scooter or on foot, truth be told...thank you, Greg, for making our last voyage together the best one ever. with love, lisa

And it would still be hilarious. These lengthy, rambling one-way conversations are lots of fun and cover a lot of ground. Unlike other podcasts, where a lack of format is deadly, Proops is enough of an intellectual to keep my attention. He also makes some very good points.

It was hot that day: this much I remember. The man in the spectacles stood by the bank of the stream and stared down at his submerged feet. The cuffs of his trousers were rolled to the knee; his socks and wingtips sat abandoned on a baked-white rock several feet away. Unseasonably hot, I remember that. It was November and there he was in the river with a suitcoat on. We watched him for a time, muttering to the placidly passing water. Then he noticed us, looked up squinting, and grinned for a moment. That's when we knew: he was the Smartest Man in the World.

I'm amazed that people who would seek out Proops don't understand his humor. Perhaps you should see if Jeff Dunham or Larry the Cable Guy have a podcast would be more your speed. Leave Proopikins for those of us that understand his college words and big city talk. Yeehawr.
