FRIDAY LOWDOWN: 'The Dollop' Co-Host Gareth Reynolds in Eureka

Are you familiar with podcasts, Humboldt? There's an arguably popular one of those called The Dollop the kids seem to enjoy. We bring this up because the show's funnier co-host -- let's call him "Gareth Reynolds" -- is also an IRL person who sometimes tours around doing standup comedy. And hey! He's doing that today and tomorrow at Savage Henry Comedy Club in Eureka. Aren't you glad you clicked this?

Details on that show and/or other Friday rewards in your Lowdown listings below.
