  • #273: August 1976 (w/Seanbaby) - "Improbable As It May Seem -- The Impossible Man is Back In Town!"
    Jun 25 2025

    After teaching the internet what humor was in the 1990s, Seanbaby wrote for a number of publications that were all ruined by venture capitalists. He then cofounded 1900HOTDOG, the last comedy website, which delivers the hilarity on a daily basis, like the internet used to when this was a proper country.
