I haven't seen it yet but I saw Kevin wearing a hat and remember Gary calling him out on twit telling him to shave his head and he would donate money to charity. Did Kevin go through with it or is he just wearing a hat?

[snaf00]

Yeahhhhhhh, Hate to tell you Kevin but you didn't shave your head. You gave yourself a very short haircut but that is not shaved. I expect to see you looking like Mr. Clean next episode or I will consider you a big fat cheater. :)

[bobothn]

Kevin wash your carpet

[chuckles]

Who wants more footage of Prager's awesome dancing skills???

-chuckles-

[tylerhowarth]

Kevin wash your carpet

That is a cement floor.

[ryudo]

Too white and nerdy.
None of you EVER attempt to dance again please for the good of mankind.

But I enjoyed the episode. And next time I see a hamster I will continue to sniffs it's ass over and over like alex did to the tea even knowing it stinks like hamster ass.

[ohhoe]

That is a cement floor.

haha I thought it was a filthy carpet too.

[spinney]

He needs one with a cowboy hat,looks like line dancing to billy ray:p

[msmags]

Awesome episode guys! I laughed all the way through! :D

'C' Prager and Kevin get down, white boy style!!

[janissary]

Omg the cwalk guy lives a few blocks from my house. I went over to the Pimp My Walk site and watched the full length clip. He's goin off at the bus stop and a couple other buildings around here.

I see groups of guys hanging out breakdancing etc on weekends but I'll have to keep my eye out for the cwak guy.

Maybe should get him in a Digg hoodie or something.

Gotta agree. Kind of lame to just cut your hair short. I'm unimpressed by your sacrifice, Kevin.

That ChaCha phone search engine is huge in my high school. Kids use it all the time during study hall to get answers for homework. They also use it to make the people working at ChaCha to look up stupid shit. For example, my friend asked ChaCha if there had ever been an instance where a man had two penises.

Just remember... no wearing red... or blue.

Really liked the episode. Nice interaction, cool digression into interesting subjects. Still iffy on sponsor placement, though. Thanks so much!

PS - Yeah that is not even like a buzz cut, that shit's probably an inch long.

[maddpaky]

Alex did find the right site. Turns out ChaCha discontinued their "Desktop Search" (the service alex was talking about" a couple months ago.

[peety]

I remember people doing the c-walk in middle school (75% hispanic), and me, being a nerdy white kid never really tried it.

Guess the "OG" style i remember, is more like prager's style versus the video they played.

Awesome ep. btw.

Has there been a man with two penises?

[ryudo]

Has there been a man with two penises?
Yes.
Don't ask how I know,I will just say the internet is a dangerous place and sometimes misleads you in places you didn't want to go.

Diggnation...the best show ever!
nice episode guys

[phatlip12]

The dude that sent the angry email about the muskrats is a complete r-tard. That is all.

[idmfx]

Who chose the Jedi Mind Tricks remix for the fake sponser and outro? Excellent choice. Is anyone on the show a fan?

[janderson91]

I loved this episode. HILARIOUS.

[artofwar420]

Great episode, the dancing made it better.

[rowlodge]

just to inform you guys the C in CWalk is for crip as in the gang. And yes if seen doing it by a gang member he will normally ask what set you claiming and expect you to be able to spell it out with the dance. This can result in a beat down. I know a few who have suffered from not knowing better.

There is also a form of CWalking call Clown Walking its done by non gang members and they tend to avoid moves that signal any gang affiliation. Clown Walkers also tend to dress in colorful costumes so as to show they are not down. They still can get beat down however but are normally left alone.

UUggghh while there were some funny moments this show was painfully dragged out. stay focused on the subjects.

I previously thought Kevin was a snob but after hearing how he was broke for a long time and on twit how he only takes a salary from work, I have a great deal more respect for him. Hats off you've earned it kevin.

i soooooooooo want to learn those dance moves and personally who cares about another search engine. I am actually clamoring more to "search me" because of its cover flowesc feature. you can view the websites and the home page without even going there. Wayyyyyy cool.

Oh and alex the term were you looking for is SEO (Search Engine Optimization). Why would you need a physical middleman when you could optimize an engine to do it for you. I agree with Kevin on the relevance of how many crawls one engine has over another. However, I do find myself looking for the obscure information that not all engines catalog so I would go to a provider that has a higher ration if I think it will increase my odds of finding that "hard-to-find" info.

Alas I know I am a minority.

[redwardj]

The first 15 mins of this was classic. Kevin, Alex, and Prager dancing was classic. People who say they need to focus more on the stories are crazy. I watch diggnation for their personalities and the fact that the show is just entertaining. I really don't care what stories they use, if you wanted to hear news stories then go watch the news.

[eminemdrdre00]

I thought Alex was talking about

[dosequis]

Shit, can I change my vote. I don't really want to see Prager dance. Pragerpedia = Good. Prager Dance = Bad.

This comment creeps me out.

[sopadeelle]

i was amused by kevin attempting to c-walk.
i like how alex and kevin drank tea this episode :D

[phatlip12]

This comment creeps me out.

Don't worry, he only thinks he's a crip. :)


;)

[zigzag801]

I love the fact that glen has family in boulder Colorado I use to live in Longmont which was like 10 min away and that's where all the hippies live, it reaks of Mary j and the cops don't care

[lifestyle151]

Sorry guys... but i have to say this episode was kind of boring. It didn't feel like you guys where awake .

[nightwang]

Who wants more footage of Prager's awesome dancing skills???

-chuckles-

We need a new show named "Prager's Dance Party"

[xfuuey]

I liked the show. I love it when they get side tracked on discussions about random shit

[jks15]

I loved that show. That side tangents and the dancing were epic beyond epic. Kevin cannot dance, and it's very funny watching him try. When Alex said 'I'm going to break out the worm' I was SOOO hoping he would. It would have made the show complete lol.

[man3ster]

get it at http://audiofile.org.ua/song/67435.html just click the mp3 link and then the grey button on the next page.
peace.

[joadjovae]

I really liked this show, I agree with others in the fact that the shows that have kev and alex's personality in it are better.

[mr-snazzy]

haha nice

[hellhound]

Just remember... no wearing red... or blue.

also stay away from gold/yellow (tan sometimes) and black... thats Latin Kings colors. Ironically I have a (harlequin-style) Joker tattoo which could be misinterpreted as one of their symbols and one of my favorite combinations are yellow/black (yeah like a bumblebee, looks kool tho).

From what I understand they are mostly a NYC/east coast gang tho.
