Pops is a greedy owner of a local diner. He often gives tips and advice to Johnny; however, his advice often turns out to be useless, sometimes provoking trouble for Johnny.
His diner's chili is made from rather suspicious ingredients and he serves food made from many animals, such as possums, pandas, cougars, seals, horses, Squid, bald eagles, Raccoons.
Like Carl, Pops was introduced in season two after the show's drastic retooling and remained even after the return to the original format, although he was relegated to brief cameo roles.
Pops's early and actual life seems to be very strange yet mysterious,for example in Charm School Johnny, it was revealed that he saved the life of a European duchess. Pops also ran away from home at 3 years old and in Lodge Brother Johnny, it was also revealed that he is a member of a secret fraternity.

While Pops has used Johnny for his get rich quick schemes a number of times, he has played the friendly father-like figure for him. He has shown hints of friendship since he saved him from trouble several times.
Relationship with Carl:
Pops' relationship with Carl is however somewhat stronger, Pops trusts Carl more than he trusts Johnny, as it's revealed in Lodge Brother Johnny, but just like Johnny, Carl was used by Pops too.
