“Amer’cun Profiles - Bob” by Jesse Perry

The day was Bob’s. He could feel it. Yes, today Bob was going to excel!

PRANKSGIVING!

Mangy Dog had planned on releasing a new prank-call based ep of The Whoopdee-Doo this week, but life intervened.  So, we’re going to link to some of Mark Anundson’s Happy For Apathy episodes, which feature some delightful pranking.

For starters, go here. Tons of great pranks from Manundso.  For more great Manundso-based ha-has, check out the Happy For Apathy podcast.
