  • Hi Penn fans. Penn Says videos have been discontinued, so you won't be seeing any new content on here. You can check out our Profile on our Channel Page for more info. We'll still be checking in, so hope to keep chatting with you all! Thanks!

  • do penns vids take a while to load for anyone else? It doesnt take forever or anything but it isnt streaming. I would assume its cause of the amount of people trying to view it at the same time but its only got about 4500 views.

  • @Hectortuba155817 Are you still having this problem?

  • nope, seems to be working fine now

  • @Hectortuba155817 Great to hear! Please let us know if you experience any other issues.

  • things to remember: strippers will not repay a loan

  • Penn, I don't know if this was intentional on your part. But I went to the Kiva website and accidentally and almost to my great surprise and joy found that Atheists are the #1 group in the amount donated to others. If you go to the community section the Out Campaign A is on the very top! Above Kiva christians (lol). Anyway, that was a fascinating accidental discover. I guess atheists trust strangers the most (I joke). Atheists have loaned out 1 million dollars so far. The most of all groups.

  • I discovered Kiva for myself in June and contribute regularly. I myself am a struggling musician, photographer and designer; struggling because I can't get a loan for any of my projects, so I have to work a crappy day job living paycheck to paycheck, but I still have enough left over to get my $5 Starbucks each day. Now, I spend that on Kiva to help people (that are actually struggling) and I've been paid back a couple of times already. It's not about making a profit, it's about helping others!

  • I've heard of KIVA. I've always thought it was a good idea. I'm glad Penn chimed in on this. Thanks Penn.

  • Good day, Ill teach you how I earn tons of money making youtube videos. Find some royalty free tunes. Upload all the stuff somewhere. Then join bee4biz (just Google it) and use them to protect your download link. Make videos advertising your royalty free download and post protected download link in description. bee4biz pays you each time people complete a survey to unlock your download link. They pay via moneybookers or PayPal weekly.

  • My Mom ask me to make a donation to this group as her Mother's Day gift. I sent $25 to a woman in Cambodia who is trying to purchase some piglets for her farm!

  • Hi, Robbie!

  • It's just the processing. Videos are uploaded before they are fully processed. Or used to. Not sure about it now, though.
