Ping 200: The Show 200 Spectacular!
Mar 21, 2014 at 12:05PMJust had a free moment to watch the outtakes. So many good memories... it's unfortunate many of the follow-up comments and segments couldn't go on air. They were so much fun to film.
Best of luck on making it to 300 episodes!

Jan 06, 2014 at 1:06AMNope, I'm no longer working with Mythly Studios... I'm working on the next thing which is based in S.F. I'll have more info to share soon.
I was actually rooting for MSU--need to bump up the clout of the Big Ten Conference.

Oct 18, 2013 at 3:53PMI'd hit like for your comment, but that apparently that feature doesn't exist! So I'm responding to your comment instead with really no additional value to add other than to let you know I mildly enjoyed what you said.

Sep 24, 2013 at 11:56AMHow quickly the communal knowledge of this show's history fades!
I'm a periodic thorn in Laura's side; the original mastermind of Boys without Foys; former Microsoft-ie; incorrect user of semi-colons; maker of fail sound sites like this one; and much, much more (not really that much more).
