I know! I know! I'll get to it!!!! This ep was brought to you by Falcon Northwest Computer Systems [falcon-nw.com] Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

"Who's Line" alum Greg Proops is an amazing improvisor and does a spot-on Thomas Alva Edison.

Nick Kroll (The League, Fabrice Fabrice, Bobbie Bottleservice, name rhymes with "Rickroll") got heckled by a grip while auditioning for SNL. He didn't get the job. For this reason, you should feel bad for him and watch his one hour comedy special "Thank You Very Cool," premiering Saturday, January 29th at 10p ET on Comedy Central. Chris, Matt & Jonah were able to suspend a single muon in a makeshift particle accelerator and tear the very fabric of space-time. In the first timestream, these last three sentences didn't exist.

I'm sure the drugs have kicked in. Now waffle keyhole iron boot! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
