The OGs in Rhumba Lessons

When the OGs were in the shoe business, they found a clever way to get free dancing lessons, and soon they were tripping the light fantastic all across Los Angeles. Tune in to discover the tricks of the trade trade, and for a delightful musical interlude.


Happy Halloween from the OGs

The world's cutest grandparents somehow become a little more adorable in their Halloween costumes.


Lesbians

Lesbianism might be the hippest lifestyle choice of the 21st century, but it's nothing new to the OGs, who have opinions on Sapphic love affairs dating back to the 1930s. Let's tune in and see what they have to say on the matter.

The OGs' Message for the year 2109

As summer draws to a close, a grandparent's fancy turns to the passage of time. The OGs, wondering why their grandchildren keep pulling out the video camera, suggest that the footage might as well be sent in a rocket one hundred years in the future--and they have a special message for the people of the 22nd Century.

PopPop Meets the Ball of Fire

Now, they say there's nothing new under the sun, but all the same, we're pretty sure our PopPop is the only 97-year-old man who got checked out of the retirement home to spend last Saturday tooling around his old downtown LA haunts in the company of a 94-year-old burlesque queen.

Grandma came along to keep him honest, but she gave him a moment to say his private goodbyes to Follies legend Betty "Ball of Fire" Rowland. That's just one of Grandma's little secrets for keeping a marriage hot for 73-going-on-74 years. Watch and learn, grasshopper.
