THE ELECTRO IMPRO GAMESHOW – PBH's Free Fringe

If you're at the Edinburgh Fringe between August 18 and August 23, please come check out The Electro Impro Gameshow at 2:35 - 3:25, Brewdog House Hotel (Venue 603).

It's part of the Free Fringe, and obviously I'm in it, so there's two good reasons to come along.

One thing I like to do is to watch revival shows without ever having really seen the original. I may be the only person alive who watched the Frasier reboot and never the old series. Now I'm doing it with King of the Hill, which is very good!

It truly seems like America will do anything for 813 people and nothing for 340 million. This budget bill... YIKES.

Hey, did you know there's an alternative to ChatGPT that makes sense economically and doesn't destroy the environment?
It's called English majors and they will happily fix all of your documents for the low price of health insurance and a living wage.
