Summary

Greg Proops www.gregproops.com is back! This ep is a LOT about Ancient History. As per usual I could listen to him read old timey papyrus scrolls. That's how the phone books used to come! Weird. His Podcast, called The Smartest Man in the Room (for obvious reasons) is here . TDF is sponsored by TiVo this month! When you GET Tivo, at www.tivo.com you can get $25 off a new TiVo if you use the promo code "ATC" which expires on 11/1/13. When I talk TiVo during the show I reference a bit by Patton from Conan at minute 3:04 - You could just enjoy his whole set. For it was AWESOME as well. Here: You can always just DONATE to keep the show happening. It helps. For real. www.dorkforest.com or www.jackiekashian.com have donate buttons (and jackiekashian.com has my standup schedule, cd's, dork forest tshirts and LIVE TDF schedule as well). Enjoy. NOTES: Uh... it's Greg Proops... it would take me FOREVER to link all his references. You're on your own. Feel free to review the show on iTunes ... it seems to help in ratings with them. If you wish to talk/comment about specific shows with other Rangers, here's the fb group: Credits: Music Composed and sang by Mike Ruekberg (additional harmony by Sarah Cohen) Audio Leveling by Patrick BradyWebsite Design by Vilmos www.allthingscomedy.com on Soundcloud is TDF's podcast host! If you go there... you can find a lot of other great pods. And... another way to support the show is to shop at Amazon THROUGH my webiste. SO. Go to www.jackiekashian.com, click on the Amazon banner and shop like normal. I get some sort of kickback. My father is proud.

Welcome to the Dork Forest.

Jackie and her pals will never bore us.

0:08.4

Shameless confessions about our obsessions will make us laugh and smile.

So let's explore the Dork Forest and Dork Down for a while. Hi, this is Jackie Cation. Welcome to the Dork Forest, a dork down for a while.

Hi, this is Jackie Cation.

Welcome to the Dork Forest.

Guess what?

It's June, and we have a sponsor, and the sponsor is Tivo.

0:29.2

And if you don't know about Tivo, well, that's odd to me, because Pat and Oswald did a joke about it a million years ago, because Tivo was the firstR as far as I could tell and it was about how it was the greatest gift he had ever received,

0:43.2

greater even than the gift of life. I'm going to put a link to that joke in the notes.

0:48.9

Anyway, but before Tivo, you had to watch TV when it was on. You had to VHS record it possibly. You might

0:56.4

remember those days. But if you missed it or part of it, you had to wait for reruns until you

1:01.5

saw it again. So Tivo, it changed all that. And there are other DVRs, but Tivo is clearly

1:08.0

the best. TiVo makes TV a thousand times better.

1:11.5

That's their slogan.

1:12.4

I believe it.

1:14.3

I'm excited about TiVo, quite honestly.

1:18.8

But TiVo has TiVo stream, where you can watch it on your iPad or all over the house, right?

1:23.2

You can transfer your favorite recordings and take them with you, like on airplanes and buses.

1:25.2

And not in your car.

1:32.2

Please don't watch television in your car. Please don't watch television in your car. TiVo is also the only one that searches both cable and the web to find any movie, any show,

1:34.4

any video at the press of a button, right?
