Hey John,

 

My dad just had his 70th birthday. Isn’t it wild how time flies? I’ve known him since he was 27. For my entire life my dad always talks about his favorite game he had as a kid, called Bop Baseball, where you pitch and hit inside a wooden frame. My dad is obsessed with the sport and with this game. He very often brings up how he wished he could find it. When my brother and I were kids we even tried to recreate it with my pop. But none of us are particularly handy and it came out odd shaped  I had looked for it online for years, always with no luck. Until a month ago when I found it on ebay! I instantly ordered it for him, and yesterday while celebrating his 70th we got to play his favorite childhood game. He kept saying how he felt like a kid again. It was such a lovely time. See the picture below of the game, and a kick ass drawing of my dad that Leedy made for him as a gift. Pretty cool.

 

Do you have any special Valentine's Day plans? If not maybe I can help find you a date. I'm hosting a special show that day at Nowhere online. It’s a dating game called "Undercover Lover”. It’s like the dating game but we use face filters to hide what people look like, so you choose based on answers alone. It should be a lot of fun.  If you want to be a contestant, email [email protected] and if you just want to watch you can get a ticket HERE. It's at 3 pm pt/6 et on Feb 14.

 

Also, this Saturday, Feb 6th, it’s time again for my monthly improv show with Greg Proops! Also online on Zoom, join us for "Greg & Gleib It's a G thing:" for improv games & audience interaction. It’s at 5 pm pt/8 et and you can get a discounted ticket HERE.

 

Towards the end of the month on Friday Feb 26, I will be doing my first stand-up show of 2021 and I’ll be doing a ton of new material that I’ve been developing. I hope you can make it. Also virtually so you can join from anywhere on earth. You can get an early bird price on that ticket HERE. It’s already selling a ton.
