An interstitial ad, a survey question you have to answer in order read the article and an auto-play video ad.  What a mess of a site.

Another host I've wondered about for some time is Greg Lee.  Seems like he was fairly big in the 90's (WitWiCS?, voice of the principal on Doug) but disappeared after that.  Anyone know what he's up to?

Greg Lee is now a "corporate improv instructor" -- in layman's terms, he's hired by companies to teach employees how to be better employees through improv techniques. 

He also has a Christian comedy act called "Brother Preacher" that he generally performs in the Nashville area ...

Probably easier to read Kroeger's own blog post on SNL 40:

Here's what I was able to find out about Julielinh Parker (who I thought did a great job as the assistant on the 2002-03 version of Beat the Clock).
