This week in press releases: Proopsmania hits Vancouver

This just came across the What's So Funny? news desk. I dutifully pass it on to you. He may not literally be the smartest man in the world, but Greg Proops plays it on his podcast:


FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
 
GREG PROOPS SMARTEST MAN IN THE WORLD PROOPCAST
 
THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 19, 2013
FANCLUB
1050 Granville Street, Vancouver BC
Doors 7 pm – 19+ Welcome
TICKETS ON SALE FRIDAY JULY 19th at 10am
Advance tickets $15.00 + s/c at UnionEvents.com & TicketFly.com 
 

(July 16, 2013) It's just Proops and you. There's no fan fare. Greg Proops takes center stage at small table and chair setup with a single microphone. Then he's off. An hour of great conversation that flies by at a break neck clip. He crams the feeling of a great two-way conversation into the lecture-style format of a one-way conversation.
Part professorial, part crazed comedian, Proops forms the show around his talent and passions. The show flows like a love letter to tangents. The Proopcast has been to Australia, New Zealand, Montreal, London, Edinburgh, Austin, Cleveland, San Francisco and off the coast of St. Martin in the Caribbean all in one year. Now you must fall.
Be there and experience joy for once in your life.

Podcast episode 318ish: Kevin Foxx

Here's a fun episode. Yes, it's a little late and all the plugs contained herein are old, but it's a lively one. Partly because Kevin Foxx gives me the gears throughout. (That's what the kids say, isn't it?: give someone the gears?) In this episode, Foxxy and my manservant, Kevin Smith, tease me about the show's Canadian Comedy Awards nomination for Best Podcast (vote here... please!), he tries (in vain) to explain astrology, talks about starting out in comedy and teaching it now (contact info@kevinfoxx.com for details on upcoming classes), and he sets the record for most number of c-words dropped in an episode. Oh, and do yourself a favour and follow Kevin on Twitter at @MrKevinFoxx. He's got the highest batting average in the Twitterverse.
