Woo!
Hello, everybody, and welcome to episode number 871.
Stop podcasting yourself.
My name is Graham Clark.
And with me, as always, is a man who, you know what?
He can get hit with a puck at full speed and keep on skating.
Mr.
Dave Shumka.
I get hit with a puck at full speed this week.
Yeah.
Kept on skating.
Right in the part underneath my thigh.
The under thigh.
Under thigh.
There's no padding.
It's very bruised.
And I'd love to show you all, but I'm not going to.
But
is in professional hockey, is that area protected or is that just not protected no matter what gear you're wearing?
I don't know.
I've never played professional hockey i don't know why you didn't i thought you spent some time on the boston bruins i don't come on i would never
well
they picked you that's i would hold up
i would go i would play in russia
uh no i um i don't know there's certain little bits i also got um slashed in the hand the other day
in the like you know how the hockey gloves you like there's like little gaps between the knuckles yeah i was kind of me in the gap jesus i was bleeding, bleeding through my...
They're hitting you on all the technicalities.
People don't like me.
People are trying to hurt me.
They want me off the ice.
Yeah, because you're too good.
That's why.
Yeah.
Yeah.
There's nothing in a rule book that says Dave Shows that way.
Well, I'm always biting the box
with my canine teeth.
Our guest today, first-time guest here on the podcast, he hosts a show each and every week called Full Pint every Thursday night.
He's a very funny comedian.
It's Colin Sharp.
Hello, Colin Sharp.
Hello.
How are you doing?
Hello.
How you doing, Dave?
Hi, Colin.
Where is the show?
Yeah, where is the show?
I forget.
Oh, yeah.
It's at a brewery called Brewing August.
It's just at Third and Fir here in Vancouver, right near where Granville Island is and stuff.
Brewing August.
It feels like it should.
Is that a pun?
Is it trying to chewing August?
Yeah, it's probably doing August.
I mean, at the very least, it feels backwards.
Like you would expect August brewing when it's Brewing August, and no, I don't know why.
Maybe it's the owner's one true love.
And And
yeah, it sounds like a,
you know, like an investigative podcast, like finding Richard Simmons, searching for whatever, brewing August.
Have either you guys ever seen Boxing Helena?
No.
It's unusual.
What is it about?
It's Kim Basinger.
Kim Basinger.
I know that I, you know, from the title, you would think it was about the
sweet science.
No, she actually likes somebody puts her in a box.
Oh, yeah, and that's most of the movie.
She's in the box.
This is, there's no, nobody's strapping gloves on.
It is just no, no, it's not Million Dollar Baby, but also Million Dollar Baby.
That could be about a lottery winner.
See, there's all sorts of things.
Yeah, sure.
And the Hurricane, all the famous boxing movies could be about anything.
Rocky could be about, you know, a mountain.
Yeah, exactly.
I'm more familiar with the sequel,
where there's that YouTube influencer that opens up the stuff she gets unboxing, Helena.
Oh, I love that one.
Yeah, that was a modern day twist.
Should we get to know us?
Yeah.
Get to know us.
Colin, tell us a little story.
We have your whole life to catch up on.
Yeah.
What are you doing right now?
Start at the beginning.
Yeah, start at the beginning, work your way through.
You've listened to the show before.
I have.
How did you think it would be?
How are we doing so far?
What did you think would be Graham's first question?
Well,
I was hoping he would ask me to start at the beginning.
So my mom and dad met in around 1980.
Okay, cool.
No, I'm born and raised in Vancouver.
Where did they meet?
They both worked in the BC Tel building at Boundary.
Oh, the big
shoe, the boot.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Huh.
It's now the TELUS building.
Yeah.
TALUS, man.
They're a force.
TALUS and Rogers.
They're the only two places that get to name everything.
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, how come we don't have something like something silly like they have in the States, like Dinty Moore Stew Stadium?
They do have so many.
Yeah, it's
because they have like crypto something.
Like every arena and stadium in America is named after a different corporation.
In Canada, I think there are at least three named after Rogers.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, we just have the three corporations.
Yeah.
So, but you guys both grew up here, so you knew that stadium as GM Place, aka the garage.
The garage.
Yeah.
The garage.
Yeah.
Was that a big day when they switched over?
You guys were like, fuck.
It's over.
It's good the garage forever.
Well, I would like, maybe, because the first time I went there, I was like six or seven.
It didn't even clue into me that GM was a brand from something else.
It was years later, I was like, oh, General Motors.
Right.
Oh, the garage.
That makes sense.
And that's why you pick up your tickets at the Chevy pickup window.
Oh,
you thought of everything.
I have a shirt from a Gwen Stefani tour, and it's from 2007, and GM Place was one of them.
Do you just have the shirt, or did you go to that show?
No, I never got to that show.
In 2007, I couldn't afford tickets to a Gwen Stefani.
Right.
Right.
She was on top of the world.
She was on the show.
Was that a working group?
Was that course?
But you know what?
We wish her the best.
She's on that show where they turn around the chairs.
X Factor, I want to say.
The voice.
Yes.
Do you enjoy any reality programming, game show, or reality?
No, I stay away from all of it.
Really?
Yeah.
You haven't watched even just a season?
I mean, I've seen episodes here and there.
I know that
my wife sometimes with her friends watches the various Bachelorette, Bachelors,
and such.
They love it.
So they're watching this Golden Bachelorette right now.
Right.
Which
fully support and I love this concept.
Older people.
I think it's great.
I'm like, oh, that's really, that's really great.
That it's older people on that.
And then I never watch it.
Huh.
I mean, it seems like it would be more palatable than a bunch of young people that are so dumb.
Like, it feels like the Golden Bachelor, like, are they still dumb?
I saw like maybe five minutes of it while my wife was watching it.
And I like, I turn and I look and I go, they don't even look that old.
Like, I was like disappointed by that.
Are Are there any of them like, I'm old, cold, and full of mold?
They could do another like, you know, autumn years or something where it's like even, even older, you know, people who've maybe had a couple of spouses and, you know, sort of were a live during the year.
The all-widow club.
Yeah, the widows and widowers.
I think some of them in this one are widowers.
Not enough.
Not enough.
Got to get those numbers up.
You said to your wife, I didn't see a ring on your finger when you came in.
Oh, you have it on your other hand.
Yeah, I can't put it on this hand right now.
I've got a, for the listener, I've got a fractured finger, so I've got a little
splint cast thing.
Was that a splint is the coolest splint?
I haven't seen it.
All splints are usually straight, right?
Like it was custom-made for your hand.
It absolutely was custom-made.
I went to the find folks at St.
Paul's Hospital on the third floor.
I visit them if you ever have a broken hand.
But this is, it's like a sheet of plastic that they have in this big long roll.
They cut a bit off and then put it in a water bath to warm it up.
So that's how I like to do it.
And I take a dust bath.
I'm sort of like
a chinchilla.
Chinchilla, yeah.
Yeah.
It's what makes Dave's fur so valuable.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But yeah,
so they put this little sheet in the water bath, warms up, then becomes nice and flexible.
And then
the
surgeon guy, expert,
he just.
I don't know if he's a surgeon either.
Is he cutting you open?
No, he's definitely not a surgeon.
He's like a surgeon.
He gave me his business card.
I forgot all about everything he does.
Hey, next time you bust up your hand,
cut out the middleman.
That's right.
You just come to my house.
I can figure it out.
Handed me the business card, put one stamp on it.
All right.
So
you busted your hand.
You got fitted for this
thing.
Yeah.
And you immediately were like,
I can't go a month without my wedding ring.
I just didn't, mole, I didn't want to lose it.
That's true.
You know, like if I just put it somewhere for a month.
See, I'm constantly fidgeting with mine, and
I'm begging for trouble.
It's going to roll out of my hand.
It's going to go down a sewer grate.
I should just buy another one now
in case I need to make sure that.
Just to back up.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Because,
no, even
like a week ago, I was watching a show and I was like fucking around with it.
I was like, oh, and these seats, they could go definitely right down between these seats.
But still, still I do it.
Yeah, like first two months of being married, I was fiddling with it and like did fully drop it during like watching a movie.
Yeah.
You hear the little clang and you're like, oh, like, where did it go?
Luckily, it was right there, but, you know, it was a pretty full theater, too.
I'm like, shit.
Oh, yeah.
I wonder.
I've been in a theater where somebody dropped a bottle like from way at the back and you could just hear it rolling all the way down.
No, it was like on the underneath the seats.
So it's like this.
Have you seen those?
Like it's like an Instagram or TikTok channel.
The person who just rolls glass bottles full of different things downstairs.
Yes, yeah.
Very stairs.
And they smash.
Yeah.
It's one of those things you don't know that you love it until you see it.
And then you're like, this is all they wanted.
And I just love the idea that the person was like, I've been doing this for years.
And suddenly this new tech technology came along.
I can share it with the world.
Yeah, he's just been doing it for himself.
He's just confusing all of his neighbors with how many.
Why are you getting rid of so much broken glass all of the time?
Need another tetanus shot?
Yeah, it's
speaking of reality TV, I watched two episodes of Love is Blind.
Congratulations.
That movie or movie.
That show is very silly.
It's the silliest concept.
Do you know, have you seen it?
No, I remember you explaining to me once that people have to they don't get to see each other?
They don't get to see each other
until they propose.
And it's hosted by Nicolashay.
He comes in at the beginning of the series and then vanishes.
You don't see him until unless he's at the end.
He does the recap.
And I remember you saying that the worst part about it is they don't see each other, so why not have some aggos on there?
And they still have just good-looking people.
Yeah, they have good-looking people.
There's some people who get into the drama so fast, like episode one, they're already like, I don't know what to make of this guy, and they're already falling in love.
Uh, but they're so dumb.
That's the great thing about this show: they're dumb.
I mean, a lot of them are smart, they have like uh really good jobs, and you know, that's one kind of smart, yeah, exactly.
Yeah, smart of the heart, one genre of smart,
no, they're dumb for the heart, they're dumb of this art.
Yeah, that's true.
Um, they wish they were smart for the heart.
Um, I wonder who first was like, huh, smart and heart rhyme.
Let's see what we can do with that.
The heart smart.
Oh,
I think that's probably it.
Yeah, you know, you get the heart smart seal on our, like, you know, wheat pasta or whatever.
The only wheat pasta with a heart smart seal.
Yeah, it's like if you.
I feel like you could be that person just coming up with like heart and smart rhyme.
What are two other words that rhyme?
Now you're the one in charge.
You're putting it together.
Like the bean scene.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Do you ever
see that commercial?
Like, it's a particular set of commercials called Brand Power.
Yeah.
Where it's the woman.
Yeah, it seems kind of like the government made them, but maybe they didn't.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And they definitely, the government didn't have any involvement, but she just talks about a product, like a random product.
And she's in a store.
Yeah.
But like, yeah, she'll just.
It seems like she's reviewing it, but she's.
Yeah.
And it's not as good as like a regular toothpaste commercial, but she'll just tell you about a toothpaste.
And then it's like its tagline is helping you buy better.
But yeah, you're right.
Sounds like a business bureau kind of thing.
Right.
Like, is this approved by anyone at any point?
Like,
yeah.
I don't know, man.
Probably not.
Now, you
currently, no day job.
You had a day job for a while.
Currently, no day job.
I've got like a like part-time.
Part-time.
Okay.
So, like, a day or two a week.
Nice.
Which is right where I like it.
Fry cook?
What do you do?
Yeah, yeah.
10 hours a week, fry cook.
Just popping in, work from home,
all that.
No, so yeah, so I have worked various jobs in the good old tech industry.
So I'm just a guy behind a keyboard doing things.
Zip Zorp.
I am a computer.
He just keeps typing I am a computer over and over again into this Word document.
Zip Zipsorb.
Can you code?
No, absolutely not.
I am in kind of the strategy and design side of things.
If you're using a program, I'm there to try to make it easier to use.
And
sometimes I successfully do that and sometimes I don't.
Yeah.
Well, that's having a job.
You know beforehand what you'll do.
Yeah, yeah.
No, I'm always.
I think this time we'll make it unsuccessful.
Yeah, I'm leaving bombs in there for sure.
Now, you asked if he was a fry cook.
I recently re-watched the movie Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
Yes.
And there's a scene in this movie where they go to
a dance party.
Well, it turns into a dance party.
It's a parade.
Yeah, on the streets.
Yeah.
So Ferris Bueller's not there.
You've seen this film.
I've seen this film.
Ferris Bueller's girlfriend, Sloane, and his friend, Cameron, are chatting about Ferris.
This is where it passes the Bechdel test.
At what point do they talk about Ferris Bueller?
Right.
But they
say, what do you think Ferris will do?
And Cameron says, or like, what's Ferris going to do when he grows up?
And Cameron says, he'll be a fry cook on Venus.
Nice.
I've always hated this line.
I don't, who cares?
Like,
it tells me nothing about anything.
Yeah, no, no, I don't remember this scene.
Does Cameron seem like he's saying that as a compliment?
Right.
Is this an achievement or is it not?
It's always a high-low situation here.
Ferris is so
out of this world.
Yeah, that's true.
And then didn't they do an ad or like a Super Bowl ad with him in it as adult Ferris?
And he was just like a lawyer or something.
Like he wasn't anything.
He wasn't president.
That's what I feel like.
He
wasn't a fried cook on Venus.
I think, yeah.
Well, but doesn't, didn't John Hughes write all those movies in like a weekend on Coke?
Really?
Yeah.
I got to give this Coke a try.
Yeah, I know me too.
I watched a movie with my dad this weekend that he had never seen before.
I've seen 10 times.
Were you in Calgary?
I was in Calgary, yes.
I'll tell you all about it.
Welcome home.
Thank you.
We watched the film Misery.
Have you guys seen Misery?
Yeah.
That movie rocks.
So good.
She's so good in it.
And
the scene, not, you know, spoiler, if you skip a couple seconds ahead, where she hobbles him.
Yes.
Stephen King couldn't believe that you saw it.
He was like, I can't believe you showed that on film.
So Stephen King was even like disturbed by it.
Yeah, is Stephen King also like notably upset at every movie that's been made based on his books?
Also notably wrote on cocaine.
Well, that's what made me think of it.
Man, if I did cocaine, I would cook so many fries.
So in that movie, I remember, because I've only seen it once.
It's the only movie, only Stephen King movie that's won an Oscar.
Oh, is it?
Is that true?
Kathy Bates won it.
Okay.
And I watched it like a year ago, and it was,
what's his face?
James Conn.
James Conn.
When he finishes writing his book, he has like like uh
he like smokes a cigarette and orders a bottle of champagne or something yeah
and that's how
um that's his like thing he does every time he finishes a book yeah i wonder how like how much
stephen kane stephen king like toned down the like oh yeah it's just a bottle of champagne yeah instead of doing a bunch of cocaine
oh yeah what do regular people do
but like
like what if you didn't know that you're fantastic at something while on cocaine if you've never had cocaine?
You know what I mean?
Like, maybe he.
That's what I've been trying to tell people.
What if I'm good at something?
I just need to try.
Just give me some Coke and see if I can give me like an
activity table.
Yeah.
Let's see what I can do.
Give me some Coke and a running start and I'll see what I can get done out there.
Yeah.
Maybe you are really good at the steeplechase or maybe you can write a book.
I don't know.
So, Colin, you say you're born and raised in Vancouver.
Yeah.
Story checks.
I say that.
Yeah.
What high school did you go to?
And when I say Vancouver, Greater Vancouver, I grew up on the North Shore.
So I went to West Vancouver Secondary School.
Okay.
Right.
How's that?
What was your mascot?
This is.
I always ask people that because ours was so stupid.
West Vancouver, we had the
West Vancouver Secondary School Highlanders.
Oh,
which is just Scottish people.
Our logo was just a guy holding the bagpipes.
Oh, not a guy cutting off another guy's head because there can only be one Highlander?
That right?
I think that's right.
Yeah.
I would have supported them putting that on the wall of the gymnasium.
That would have been way more intimidating than a musician.
Yeah, holding up a head of the principal of another school.
They repainted every year.
Well, Prince of Wales is a school here, and I think their mascot was like the Welshman.
Or like it was something Welsh.
So, I mean, Highlanders is better than that.
Yeah, I guess so.
What was yours in high school?
The Blue Demons.
The Blue Demons, that's right.
And yours was the Beavers.
No, the Lords.
Lord Beaverbrook Lords.
Yeah.
Beaver was sitting right there, and they didn't do anything with it.
Hell, even Brook, a nice babbling Brook.
Oh, that would be good.
What a great costume guys.
What a calm.
Just every sports team is just so chilled out.
Like, hey, man, we win or lose.
We're just here to
make friends.
Always in movies, well, I mean, American movies,
going to see sports, like high school sports is like a thing that people do.
Oh, yeah.
Never, never in reality here at Canada.
You wouldn't go to a track meet to just watch people do track.
Yeah, everyone in town going to see
the rugby game.
Like, I went to university here as well.
I went to SFU, and
were they still the Klansmen at the time?
Sure were.
Jesus.
That's a Scottish thing, I'm hoping.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
I basically just get into Scottish-themed schools.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Wearing a plaid shirt today.
It all adds up.
It all does add up.
But we, so the SFU sports teams joined like a low-level NCAA while I was there.
Oh.
And so they started playing American schools, and then the American schools would come up to play us, and they would get to SFU's campus and be like, Your football field doesn't have seating.
It was like something like 2015, where they were, I guess we were like, should we put some stands in so people can watch?
But we only own chairs, you know?
At least put some bleachers in so people can fool around underneath.
Yeah.
Do you guys have bleachers at your high school that like folded up into the wall?
Oh, yeah, in the gym.
In the gym.
Yeah.
It was like
really stupid, but you know, people trying to run through it before it went all the way down.
Teens, you can't tell them anything.
Have you seen those another Instagram video of people who try to like,
you know, in those like library racks where you spin the thing and it closes the people trying to get out of those in time?
Teens as well, I assume.
No, these are all elderly people.
Oh, yeah, and they get smudged.
The videos are just filmed in time-lapse.
Yeah.
They're just slowly hobbling out.
They're the golden bachelors until they got widowed.
Do you play any high school sports?
I play basketball.
You did?
I did.
Okay.
What position?
Like
a shoot-and-guard wing.
Shooting guard wing.
Sure.
Sure.
Position.
This guy knows the terms.
And like right through high school or one year and then gave it up?
I did it one year and gave it up.
I didn't play for the senior teams.
I didn't play in grade 11 and 12.
Okay.
I was out.
I was like, this coach is too mean.
I am out of here.
Yeah.
Yeah, I could see that.
Like, why do I need that in my life?
I'm not going to go to college for basketball.
Oh, no, definitely not.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I wonder if the coach was a...
No, my coach for basketball was...
He was all right.
The guy for volleyball, he was pretty intense.
Did you do high school sports?
I did volleyball and I did basketball and I did wrestling.
What position did you play?
Bench warmer, I think, in basketball and like a guy who doesn't really touch the volleyball and wrestling undefeated champ.
Were you really, really good?
I was the weight I was, I was the lowest end of a weight class that was very
like large.
Like I was like, I if I lost some weight, I could have been in a division with people more my size, but I was just over the line so you just love being the underdog.
Yeah, and I mean I didn't live up to it at all.
I got smushed got smooshed got thrown around had to tap out a couple of uncomfortable positions.
Yeah,
thank you.
You didn't do that thing where they make you, you know, cut weight to walk around with a garbage bag on.
Just run on a treadmill and saran wrap this kind of thing.
Yeah,
exactly.
I watched the thing last night.
You guys know that Mike Tyson and Jake Paul going at it?
Yeah, Yeah, at the time of this release,
we will have celebrated the death of Jake Paul, I'm assuming.
You think.
Wow, who's going to inherit all those energy drinks?
You think Mike Tyson is
too old for this?
Yeah, I think he's in his 60s.
But he's so big and strong.
He is so big and strong.
And I watched, there's like a teaser documentary on Netflix.
Here's the thing, though.
I don't think he can be too old to put a Paul brother in his place.
Yeah.
Nobody has so far.
That's the thing because he only knows bums.
Yeah.
Well, that's what I've got my hopes.
This is good.
People are going to listen and be like, Dave, you were so wrong.
It's Mike Tyson who died.
Yeah.
But one of them's going to die in the ring.
Oh, wouldn't it be great if they both die?
Like they both punched each other in the face and knocked each other out and that's the end of the match.
That'd be great.
I mean, then nobody loses, right?
The thing is, if Jake Paul dies, anyone, every
it'll be confusing because they'll be at the funeral and they'll be like i'm jake paul's pulpar
um
yeah it's uh uh do you watch anything like that boxing usc i watch basketball i don't watch the fighting ones but i was on my high school ufc team yeah of course i was on my high school slap fighting team oh man that slap fight it's a force holy cow yeah it was all under the table yeah sure that's where you ended up if you weren't good at flap but Yeah, for sure.
Like, did you, like, the election, we're recording this just happened, and the guy, like, the president of USC was on stage for this acceptance speech, Dana White.
Oh, my goodness.
I think maybe Joe Rogan was there, too.
It was kind of like, ah, come on, bring the whole gang down.
We'll all have a good time.
I saw a photo that was like, it was Trump and Dana White and Elon like sitting down together at like a banquet table, like in the middle of a party kind of thing.
It was just like, oh, yeah, let's get these three heads together.
Was it a painting on Velvet?
Were they playing cards?
If those three were the Mount Rushmore, what would be the fourth?
In the Dana White, Elon Musk, Donald Trump.
Well, I mean, Joe Rogan.
Oh, I guess it's Joe Rogan.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Not Milo Ioonopoulos.
Remember that guy?
I remember them all.
I want to throw Roseanne in there.
Roseanne?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
She's a Trump guy, right?
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
But I love that she was,
She was the person RFK Jr.
was talking to in that story where he was telling about the bear that he had in the back of his car.
I don't know this story.
I didn't hear this story.
You didn't hear this?
No.
Oh, was it when you were in Europe?
Maybe.
RFK Jr.
told this story this past summer.
It was like a clip that came out maybe from him
about he was dropping.
All the like details of it didn't line up.
He was driving in upstate New York or whatever, and he ran over a baby bear.
And he was like, well,
I didn't want to leave it there because I wanted the meat.
So I put it in the back of my car.
I drove to New York.
I'm sure I'm leaving out details.
Bear meat.
And then I drove back into New York because I had a meeting.
I was having a dinner that night.
And then I realized, oh, I'm not going to be able to get home in time.
I have a flight.
I'm leaving town.
So I drove to
Central Park and I got got rid of this baby bear in there.
And then I left.
And there was like a news story.
And he like set it up in Central Park to make it look like, oh, yeah, this bear got killed because a cyclist hit it.
Oh, yeah, because he had someone.
His other detail was like, yeah, my friend gave me this bike to throw away.
So what I did is I drove.
I like, did he say he like backed up over the bike to make it look like it had hit a bear?
Well, I'm a guy that's like, like, I got two things to get rid of.
I'm going to go get rid of them at the same time, but not at a place you would get rid of either of them.
Yeah, they both start with B.
And it was, and in this clip, he's telling this story in his kitchen, and Roseanne is there kind of like, huh?
Like, she thinks he's crazy.
No, I never heard the story.
Wow, what a story.
Oh, my God.
I thought the bear was going to be not dead and would come back to life.
And then it turned out that there was like actual news stories about it.
Like, you were getting yeah, and the news story in the New York Times was written by his cousin or his like a niece or something like that.
Yeah.
Like,
wow.
That's how deep those Kennedys go.
Oh, to be a Kennedy, you know.
But yeah, I just, to be the niece, like, writing the story, like, wow, it's insane that this happened, that I'm learning all this stuff about this story that's ongoing this bear.
And just, oh, yeah, no, it was your uncle.
10 years later.
Oh, it turns out it was my weird uncle.
Now, Colin,
when you got here, you said you brought us a cocktail.
I sure did.
Yeah.
I love that movie, so I can't wait to get one of those.
Yeah, it's Tom Cruise theme.
For goodness sakes, I got the hippie-hippie shakes.
Now, what he's doing is he's got a bag that seems to be an insulated cooler bag.
Yes.
And he's pulled out three jars.
Matching jars.
Three little mason jars.
Oh, you know what?
We usually take a picture of them on the podcast.
Now's a good time for that, I think.
All right.
Now tell us about
what this is.
Well,
I was listening to the recent episode with Abdul Aziz, my friend Abdul,
and he brought some nice stuff for you to see.
He brought us some primes.
Primes and
a giant thing of fruit.
Yeah, and I thought, hey, let's combine.
Ooh, there's the bubbles.
And I thought, let's combine drinking and fruit.
And so...
I love it.
This is, it's a drink that I like making.
It's got uh watermelon juice in there.
Yeah, is it like pre-packaged watermelon juice, or did you juice your own watermelon?
I uh, I run watermelon through the blender and strain it, and then I make ice cubes of it.
Wow, then I can have a summary drink anytime.
Cheers, you guys.
Cheers.
Now, what else is in it?
Uh, a little bit of gin, a little bit of lemon juice, a little bit of apparel.
Ooh, that's nice.
Well, I like it a lot.
Um, uh, is Is this something you do?
So you make
watermelon ice cubes did you?
Yeah, I've got watermelon ice cubes in a nice little bag in the freezer.
How long have you been doing that?
A few years.
Speaking of fridge and freezer.
Oh, sorry.
He's being very heavy.
A few years?
Why?
That's not weird.
What do you do other fruit ice cubes?
I got grapefruit juice in there.
Do you ever do coffee ice cubes?
No.
Hmm.
He'd like to speak to his lawyer.
Should I have brought a list of everything I have in my freezer?
I mean, I guess, like.
Where did you learn about this?
Do you have any aspirations of doing other ice cubes?
I'll try another ice cube if you have any requests.
I don't have any requests.
Yeah.
This is my first time learning about that.
Yeah.
Well, this is just, there's like cocktails that I like that have like a specific ingredient.
And
it's...
You can't just always keep everything in your fridge all the time.
No.
Like, I'm not pounding through grapefruit juice except for the half-ounce of it that goes into a Hemingway daiquiri that's nice to have once every couple months.
Do you think your grandparents ate grapefruit every morning?
Oh, sure.
Like,
you'd have to, it's so complicated to eat a grapefruit
to get the pulp part out of it.
And you don't get much out of it.
No, it's not very filling.
It's grapefruit and
apparently it messes up a lot of medications.
Yeah, yeah, that's right.
Yeah, it doesn't work with like
if you're on like uh like heart medication
or antibiotics or something.
Yeah.
Wow.
They're just like, hey, don't touch a grapefruit while you're taking it.
Well, now that's all they want to do.
Now that you've said not to.
Boy, that's a real classic like 80s breakfast is a grapefruit
with a spoon or
a cantaloupe.
But the circle, the like
caved in part of it.
I feel like a lot of
cottage cheese.
Cottage cheese.
I feel like a lot of breakfast in the 80s was just a, whatever your food item item was, had its own dedicated little
like bowl or thing for it.
Just like, hey, here's the thing you put the grapefruit in.
Here's the little thing you put your hard-boiled egg in.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Absolutely.
We definitely had egg cups.
Egg cups.
They rule.
I think we still do.
And let you know.
You bring them out?
Yeah, let's have some eggs.
Okay.
They're from IKEA.
They're green.
Yeah, I keep eggs in the freezer if you want.
Do you ever make egg ice?
just like throw it in a pan it's like scrambled eggs now how many uh cocktail yours you like cocktails i do yeah do you um i like cocktails as well do you like them
do you have too much like how many days a week are you having a cocktail a few days a week and are you doing because what i'll do is i'll if i find a weird ingredient like a pineapple juice i'll be making like three or four in a week that all use pineapple juice.
Right.
Not pineapple juice.
Everything.
Pineapple juice makes everything better, but like grapefruit juice.
Pineapple juice, great.
Oh, speaking of all things, Colin's fridge.
This is the man who came up with the brilliant idea during the summer to keep your deodorant in the fridge.
Oh, it's a good place for it to live.
Man, oh man, that was such a game changer in the summer.
Well, we don't all have room for all this stuff in our fridges.
That's why I make ice.
He said.
Okay, so your deodorant?
Yeah, Elaia lives in the fridge door.
Yeah.
It's just refreshing.
Putting it on.
Do you have one in the bathroom as well, or is that your only one?
Well,
I've got like a very jelly, like a blue old spice
deodorant that I keep in the fridge.
I've got an antiperspirant that I keep out of the fridge.
Okay.
I stay away from the anti-perspirant.
Yeah, me too.
I never used them before until like a couple years ago.
And then I was just like, I
sweat a lot.
Let me try this thing out.
Because I was just like warned about it.
Like, hey, it's bad for you and all this.
And I look it up online.
It's like, oh, opinion seems pretty mixed.
If it is actually bad for you.
The Alzheimer's Society does not acknowledge the
danger.
Oh, I see.
Which is the one thing I always heard.
It was like, aluminum in antiperspirant gives you Alzheimer's.
When I was a teen, I used antiperspirant and ruined many shirts because of it.
And then years and years later, I
dug one of those shirts out and you could see all the aluminum.
Oh, cool.
Yeah.
So it was like,
it is pretty cool.
Yeah, I had the same thing.
And also, I would use antiperspirant.
I even used this one.
It was called Certain Dry, and you put it on at night.
It made my armpits so itchy.
But it would last until the next day.
Yeah.
And it was like, we had to get it in the States because it wasn't legal here.
Anything to declare?
No.
But I found that it's still, I was like, yeah, my armpits are dry, but my face is still sweating.
I'm still sweating.
It's just not coming out of my armpits.
Maybe there's more, even.
It's getting pushed in.
Coming out of my nipples.
Border Guard's like, hey, hey, lift your arms up.
Let me see.
When I finally bought the antiperspirant, I just like went and got it at like a pharma save or whatever.
And as I'm checking out, the cashier is just like, hey, just so you know, you grabbed antiperspirant, not anti-deodorant, not like deodorant.
Anti-deodorant.
Anti-deodorant.
That's odorant.
That's just.
Oh, shit.
Oh, no.
I think that was the wrong look.
But
I've never had a cashier at the
pharmacy be like,
are you sure?
Like, that's.
Yes.
Frequently, I'll buy the wrong thing and then I'll just be mad.
Yeah.
Home Depot, especially.
Oh, boy.
Yeah.
These screws are just for wood.
Well, I'm going to put them in glass.
I was trying to screw through my window.
Do you keep anything else weird in your fridge?
His rake.
Because I don't know if this is weird, but we do,
you know, our freezer is full of batteries.
Oh, yeah, the battery.
I had a friend who...
What is the reason for this?
Apparently, they last longer.
Okay,
these are new batteries.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay.
Oh, instead of getting rid of them, you just put them in your freezer.
And my friend used to, his family owned like a photo developing place, and they would keep their film in the fridge.
We did that as
a youngster.
I remember that
when I was a kid growing up, we would have the film in the fridge.
Yeah.
But now I'm like, there must be some other weird stuff I keep in there, but to me, it's just normal.
Yeah, but you know, deodorant's weird.
I know it's unique.
Sure, okay.
Sorry.
I've had worldwide support.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Do you even have it in the winter?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, really?
I heat mine up in the winter.
I put it in the oven.
Yeah.
It keeps it in that drawer under the oven.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, man, that drawer never gets seen, but is it loud when you pull it out?
Yeah.
Holy shit.
In the manual, they say it's not for storing pots and pans.
Well, where I'm supposed to put them.
They're wrong about that.
It's a warming drawer.
I remember like a couple years ago on The Simpsons, they had a gag where Bart was talking about missing their
at the Flanders place.
And Bart says, remember how mom would put our underwear in the microwave on a cold day?
I tried it.
And you know what?
Feels great.
Effective.
Yeah.
Don't do it with a poly, you know,
it'll melt the polyester.
But
remember when Kramer had them put all his clothes in the pizza oven?
But you guys should try this underwear in the microwave trick.
As long as you got some cotton.
Well,
speaking of antiperspirant, my butt is
where most of my perspiration happens.
I do not need more heat there.
Oh, I see.
Yes, of course.
Like sometimes my car, sometimes I'll accidentally turn on the seat heater in my car, and I hate it.
Too hot.
Too hot.
I'm a little
bit furnace down there.
Been in one of these newer cars that has a seat cooler.
I have not.
I just want to know if it actually works.
Seat cooler.
Yeah.
On a hot day.
Seat cooler.
Yeah.
Okay.
That sounds like the dream.
I'm like you.
I'm just
sweating out my butt.
Sure.
And other stuff comes up my butt, too.
Make no mistake.
Super
balloon filled with hair.
My butt is a multi-fluid place.
My butt is.
It contains multitudes.
Apparently, the new BMWs
now
you have to pay a subscription fee to use the seat heaters.
What?
Disgusting.
Yeah.
And they're just,
that's what everything's going to become.
It's going to be subscription.
Like you don't own anything anymore.
And you're going to have to have one to like order Wendy's.
There will be like a Wendy.
That's why I take the bus.
Somebody else warmed up the seat for me.
Yeah.
That's fine.
That's a good feeling.
I mean, getting on a bus and then there's being a seat for you.
No better feeling.
I know.
It's already warmed up.
It already has liquids on it.
Yeah.
Everything's fine.
I know.
That's why when I'm choosing which BMW to drive in the morning, I'm like, okay, I'll drive one of the older ones because I have it.
It has seat heaters.
Yeah, and you want to buy that
while you still can because
they'll just keep coming out with worse and worse seats.
I remember when we were looking for a used car a couple of years ago, BMWs were so cheap because
they're a bad reputation.
And then they're like, they cost so much to service.
Yeah.
I remember talking to a guy once about how all BMW drivers are assholes.
And he's like, I drive a BMW.
And I was like, well, I don't know what to tell you.
It's science.
The evidence isn't in your favor, my guy.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't know why.
Why is it BMW so I was I remember telling like when Abby was learning to drive I remember being like okay now change lanes.
Well don't change lanes yet.
That's a BMW.
They will not let you in.
Yeah.
They will not let you change lanes.
When that guy goes by, then change lanes.
But why?
Is it the money bracket that it's in attracts assholes?
Well, there are plenty of very nice Rolls-Royce drivers.
I don't know.
I think they're
more posh, the Rolls-Royce.
I feel like I've noticed, like, with Tesla drivers, too, a lot of the same thing.
And I...
I wonder if it's that
level of car where it's a much nicer car, but it's like the first accessible, nice car.
Like once someone is driving a Rolls-Royce, well, first of all, they're not driving it.
It's someone that works for them driving it.
And like the BMW, the Tesla is just an angry guy that
thought he was the king of the road.
Plenty of listeners listening in BMWs and Teslas.
And you know what?
We love that.
We just want to say
you're great.
Yeah.
You're not the problem.
You're the exception.
Yeah, because pretty much every time that I take an Uber in the city, it's a Tesla.
And I don't know why.
I don't know why that's...
I still haven't figured out the
door?
The doors.
Oh, I was
from the outside or from the inside.
I was in a Tesla for the first time last week, and I confused the entire time.
Yeah.
They're nice to ride in.
They're quiet.
Like the door, like, it lit up on the outside of the door, but that wasn't...
There was a little LED light, but that wasn't what you pushed.
And I, and the guy refused to tell you how to get out.
You live here.
I'm starting a ride over again, and you're gonna have to pay me.
And I'm gonna really heat up the seat this time.
Next guy gets in.
I didn't get an Uber pool.
I got an Uber in
St.
Albert, Alberta, and there's no such fancy trying to present a clean and fancy vehicle.
It was very much a hockey bag in the back.
And the light.
Yeah, I wonder about small towns because, like,
when we visit Gabriola Island quite a bit, and there's one taxi on the island.
Yeah.
And I wonder if what the Uber situation is.
There's, I mean, you could just have it and be at home.
And if it goes off, you're like, yeah, I'll just drive out and pick the person up.
But
I feel like the last couple of times I've taken a cab, I've been really hosed.
Like, I really,
they've taken me in a circuitous route and
order.
That's because you're a tourist.
Yeah, I do always wear that camera around my neck like an idiot and a bucket at.
Well, that's because they keep driving you as long as you're answering all the questions correctly.
Right.
Oh, shit.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
What was the Cash Cab?
Cash Cab, and he was called.
Oh, that's not knowable.
I feel like it was Adam something.
Was that a Canadian show?
Or was there, were there something?
I think there was a Canadian version of the show.
Now, I'm going to look it up.
And the answer to Cash Cab host is Adam Grove.
Adam Grow.
Okay.
Adam Grow.
And it's just a Canadian show?
Well, I can't look everything up right now.
It must have been American.
They made fun of it on 30 Rock and stuff.
Yeah, Cash Cab American Show is the Wikipedia entry.
Okay.
But there was, they did a Vancouver version and they killed someone.
Yeah, they ran somebody over.
No way.
Yeah.
Well, R.I.P.
Yeah.
Oh,
you getting a lot of ads for Wikipedia?
Donate to Wikipedia?
I'm getting them everywhere.
No, I just opened Wikipedia.
That's the first one I've seen.
Should we donate to Wikipedia?
Have you ever donated to Wikipedia?
Yeah, I would donate to it every year.
Because I use it more than literally any other website.
I use it every day.
And they're only asking for like 15 bucks.
No, they're asking for $2.75.
Wow.
And I'm leaving them a big tip.
$2.75 or other.
Or other, sure.
Yeah, I'd do a $15, you know, keep that thing humming.
That's great.
Thank you.
Thank you for supporting me.
So I won't.
Knowing that you've done it, I'm
even more relaxed.
Wow, that's like five from all three of us.
Wow.
Yeah, that's true.
I'll consider it that.
Well, I'll put both of your names on the.
Could I get a third of that tax ready?
Yeah, could I please get it?
You betcha, I'll print one out for you.
Oh, man.
I finished my cocktail.
What do you call this thing?
Is there a name to it?
The website I found it on called it The Merchant's Wife.
The Merchant's Wife.
And every cocktail has some insane name that doesn't mean anything.
Yeah.
I love people who are like mixologists.
I think they're fascinating people.
Like I wish every bar I go to, I could buy like some local cocktail or whatever, but they're usually like $22 to $28.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So it's like fun, but that's why it's nice to drink at home.
It's the best.
Turn on your favorite show.
Love is blind.
I really like cocktail as I'm making dinner because I find after seven o'clock,
I don't,
anything I drink, I feel the next morning.
Yeah.
Right.
Yeah.
Yeah, I had a couple of drinks the other night.
I was like, what were you thinking, man?
It's the middle of the week.
but it was a birthday party, so what can you do, right?
It was a good time, it was a good time.
Wait, were you both there?
Yeah, past guests, Erica Sigurdson's happy birthday.
Oh my god, thanks for the invite, Erica.
Can I guess where it was?
I think you're correct with the Sylvia Hotel.
That is correct.
You're absolutely right.
I think when Erica dies, she will haunt the Sylvia Hotel.
Is it already haunted?
It might already be haunted.
It's but that just because it's haunted by one person doesn't mean that it could be another person, you know, at least one per floor.
I think think that Ivy is just going to start growing up her soon, just covering that.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
The famous Ivy.
Yeah.
But it was very funny because she bought balloons on the assumption that her husband, Jay, was not going to buy balloons.
And he bought balloons that were fantastic.
And the ones that she bought were like, they looked like a gender reveal party.
Absolutely balloons.
They're like pink and blue, and they sucked.
Did she know this?
Yes.
She admitted like, she's like, this is the one I picked.
And his were like Mylar and they spelled
her and said happy birthday on it.
And the ones that said happy birthday on them, ones that spelled out 50th.
Yeah, he did.
Although Robin Thick has a big dick.
He does.
Shit.
Well, according to the Blurred Lines video.
Can you believe that video existed?
Remember when they jammed together on the MTV, was it MTV Video Awards?
Who jammed together?
Robin Thick and Miley Cyrus.
Right, and he was dressed as Beetlejuice.
Beetlejuice, that's right.
And she was dressed as Beetlejuice, too.
And she had just invented twerking.
Oh, yeah, that's right.
She invented twerking.
This is a part of our heritage.
But in that video, there's a nude version of that video, or like a video where everyone's topless.
All the models are topless.
And not Robin Thick?
There's a censored version of it.
There's an uncensored version of it.
I didn't know about the censored version.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
No, there's the censored.
And in the
real family-friendly in the Pharrell biopic, you see the Lego boobs.
Apparently, according to the critics, not bad, yeah.
Same with the Robbie
Robbie Williams as a monkey.
Yeah.
They said both of them are like very well received.
Now, I heard.
Okay, so there was this Robbie Williams as a monkey.
Yeah.
Biopic.
Pharrell Williams?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Pharrell Williams.
What's his last name?
Williams?
Yeah, Williams.
Robbie Williams and Pharrell Williams.
I might just like you, right?
Is it Pharrell Williams?
I'm pretty sure.
Adam Grove.
Let's get Graham's 15 bucks worth.
Pharrell Williams, the writer of Butta Baba Baba.
I'm loving it.
Founding members of Annie.
Yeah.
They're both
Williams's.
That's really putting me off my game now.
Or it could be the merchant's wife.
They both have biopics that are weird.
I then saw a news story about how there will be a Phil Collins biopic that takes place in the Grand Theft Auto,
the like Miami version universe.
That isn't true.
You're making that up.
And then I was like, oh, that's so weird.
I've googled it since.
It doesn't exist.
I don't know where I saw that.
Did I dream it?
You must have dreamed it.
Yeah.
Because wasn't in one of the Grand Theft Autos, like you could go into a comedy club and Ricky Gervais would be doing stand-up in it.
That's sort of where you got to start.
Yeah, you worked that circuit for years.
Just worked that same two-minute cutscene worth of jokes.
Can you imagine like somebody who starts their stand-up career on the internet and then somebody invites them to like a live comedy club?
They lose their mind because, you know, they're sitting at home telling jokes.
Well, Ricky Gervais went from, he was famous.
And then so he, like, Louis C., his first live shows, Louis C.K.
opened for him
at theaters
so the yeah but I just like the idea of playing a video game and being like hmm I hear there's a way I can have sex in this video game or I can see Ricky Gervez do stand-up
or according to your dream Phil Collins yeah
I would like that if you just in the in the next Grand Theft Auto you just go into a movie theater at this time and you watch a two-hour feature just a full two-hour feature in the middle of your video love that is that not a thing that you can can do?
I assume that's a thing you can do.
Not a full two hours.
Oh, not in Grand Theft Auto.
I think I'm just thinking of like Meta or whatever.
Oh, you're thinking of putting on
your Metaverse goggles or whatever they're called.
Yeah.
How, what, like, the glasses.
How the hell are they supposed to work?
Because, like, it's just.
The new ones that are like the new, are they like a Google glasses?
You work in tech two days a week.
do you do you have any insider knowledge i haven't used them i haven't uh well because there's the apple ones app apple apple goggles apple glass but there's ones that you can wear like those the apple goggles are the ones you do you walk around the world in them or you just you theoretically can because they're supposed to be like the whole thing is a screen but it's got like a see-through like function to it right so there's like an you know there's like a setting you can have where it's like boom you are just like all you can see is a movie or you can i have been thinking of these ray-bad yeah the ray-ban ones just came out and they they look fine they look like they look normal yeah yeah but i don't get it like what is
how do you can like look at that and be like oh i get that store's closed walk up to a store and be like what are the hours of that store okay closed
but uh look we're all gonna have to get used to them because they're on their way no matter what it seems and people are gonna be like can you take those off during sex no the ray-ban meta glasses.
Actually, I have to put on another pair for what I want to do.
Actually, it's kind of got a bit of a tutorial that I'm running through.
So
Yeah, yeah.
Okay, no, you need to stop for a second because I need to catch up to this tutorial.
Yeah, I just don't get like I know in movies, minority report and whatnot, it's grabbing stuff out of the air and moving it.
Tony Stark does a lot of that.
So that's the thing that the Apple one can do.
Like you can do, there's gestures that it controls.
Zips off on a computer.
Yeah, zips off on a computer.
Yeah, so you do all the gestures and then it writes in the Google Doc for you.
But I think the Ray-Ban ones is just like a heads-up display.
Like it can show info at you, but you can do whatever wiggly dance you want with your arms.
It won't notice.
But you don't need a phone.
Because you've got to keep some of your movements secret from the computer.
What about the ones that I do like Jagger?
They do have moves like Jagger.
Now, you said a heads-up display.
When you hear the word heads-up, what do you think?
Seven-up.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
I think of what someone yells when a football is about to hit you.
What's up?
Yeah.
Whenever that gets yelled, I inevitably will turn into the football as opposed to.
There's no better way to guarantee I'm getting one to the dome.
Yeah.
Bad football player.
Probably why I never.
I did actually make the team, and then they were like, see you at seven tomorrow.
I was like, the fuck you will.
Yeah, yeah.
AM.
What happened to these Friday night lights I've heard about?
I would wonder if Calgary High School of Football would have lights.
I feel like nobody's going to see them at night.
So maybe it's all just at 4 p.m., you know?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't know.
Well,
if I was to try to figure out that question, I would ask you.
So if you don't know.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah, find another source, I guess.
Wasn't it like,
was it Wrigley Field that didn't have lights until like 1990 or something?
That sounds familiar, yeah.
So all their games were day games.
Speaking of
stadiums named after corporations.
That's been a long stand.
Like, I wonder how big Wrigley still is.
Or is it just called Wrigley Field and Wrigley's not a...
I don't know for anyone.
I don't know who owns it.
When was the last time you had some Wrigley gum?
Probably been a couple of years at the very least.
Well, I just had my skis shined up, grabbed a stick of juicy fruit.
Go on.
What would you do first?
I'll take a sniff, pull it out.
And in the movie about the women who played baseball, it was Harveyfield.
Harveyfield.
And that was a type of gum as well.
Have a chocolate bar.
League of their own?
We're talking League of Their Own?
We're talking League of Their Own.
You guys,
you're a baseball movie fan.
I feel like what?
Yeah, he was going to ask me, has anyone ever looked better than Gina Davis in that movie?
No.
No one has ever looked more beautiful than Gina Davis in that movie.
movie um yeah this is pretty she's very good looking she's on top of she's on top of her game or she is yeah or carla gougino in that bonjovi video
colin prettiest girl in a movie and or music video or and or television show i mean my first thought was talking about uh who looks best in a baseball movie and God,
my first thought was Robert Redford ranning those bases
while the lights explode behind him.
Let me talk to an electrician to ask him, would this really happen?
I liked John Goodman in Babe.
The babe?
No, but yeah, Babe was the pig in the city.
The babe is...
No, I never saw it.
Not for...
I mean, not wanting to.
I think there's a scene where he has
group sex.
I believe one of my childhood friends said that there was a scene where his wife comes in and is like, three women at one time, you animal.
Yeah.
What was his, he had a couple nicknames.
The Big Bambino, the old childish Gambino.
Was he the Sultan of the Swing?
Was that him?
He was the Sultan of Swing.
The Sultan of SWAT?
Sultan of the SWAT.
Sultan of Swing was a dire straight song.
Yeah.
This all adds up.
I believe there was...
He was the great Bambino.
Right.
And he was the babe.
These are all things they repeated to the kid in
the sand lot who didn't know who Babe ruined.
Right.
And whenever he would have an orgy, he would yell at Bambino when he was done.
Yeah.
He would point.
He would point to the
right before.
He would call his shot.
I'm going to ruin that wall.
Yeah, did you.
Baseball ever or just basketball?
I never followed baseball.
I like going to a Canadians game now and then
it's a fun sport to watch.
I'll watch it on TV every now and then.
I watch the World Series, and that's pretty much it every year.
It's this time of year.
Yeah.
It's a month ago.
I was doing a show
when the final game was being played, and somebody told me, like, was it the Dodgers that won?
The Dodgers won the World Series.
And I was like, the World Series?
Like, doesn't that start a month from now?
Like, I don't know anything about World Series.
It actually ended in October.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's been ending in November the last few years.
This is so boring.
Because there's like a few weeks where all four major sports overlap.
Oh, shit.
Okay.
And is that when you get contract March Madness?
That's when you contract March Madness in late October.
Dave, what's going on with you, man?
Oh, my God.
Don't call on me.
Teacher.
Teacher, I don't have anything.
I didn't do anything this summer.
Well, we were talking about how I watched
Ferris Bueller's Day off a few weeks ago.
Also, favorite scene?
Favorite scene?
Yeah.
What's your favorite scene in Ferris Bueller?
Favorite scene in Ferris Bueller?
Yeah, like, you know, the dance parade or them going to the art gallery or, you know, I'm, what's his name?
Dave From
King of Chicago, yeah.
I like opening scene.
I'm when he's just camera talking, talking about isms and stuff.
I like when he talks off screen, yeah, mohawking his hair fresh out of the shower, yeah, yeah, yeah, singing it's fun, it's charming, and then Matthew Brodock never did anything like that ever again.
Hmm, not even an Inspector Gadget.
He talks, he narrates election,
yeah, he does.
He's the narrator in election, yeah, but different character altogether.
Uh, beep, boop, beep beep, boop, boop,
Yeah,
I like the chase home.
I like the chase home's good.
He stops and introduces himself to the
sunbathing girls.
Something people do in Chicago all the time.
I mean in June, I'm sure.
Or May.
Also, the
end scene where the boss or principal has to go on the bus.
And then get off the bus.
Oh,
my favorite moment is when she kicks him in the face.
It's so funny.
She kicks him so many times in the face.
Also, we were watching it, and I always thought she was his older sister, but she's got to be younger because he's graduating high school.
That's right.
Huh.
Yeah.
Huh.
Yeah.
And then they dated in real life.
Really?
And
he killed someone
with his car while she was a passenger.
Huh.
That probably put some
banner in the work.
Some strain on the relationship.
Yeah, put some hair on your chest.
Are we talking about the same thing?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Eating broccoli.
Anyway, so I watched that.
Did you watch it with the Young'uns?
We had watched it with the Young'ins
prior, and then we visited
Abby's parents, and they have an old,
from when they lived in Europe, and they didn't have cable.
They had like hundreds of VHSs and a TV that's a VHS player.
Wow.
So the kids for a few nights were watching like movies.
They only picked movies they had already seen.
But they would fall asleep to Jurassic Park.
I was going to say, was Jurassic Park one of them?
Yeah.
That's a classic hat to own.
Have they seen Wayne's World?
I feel like that was VHS everybody.
Yeah, well, everyone.
Anything out of the Disney vault?
Of course.
Yeah, everything's been unvaulted.
Were they in the cases, the unique Disney puffed out?
They might have been, but of Wayne's World, of course, we all got from McDonald's.
Yeah, Wayne's World.
Oh, man.
Party time, excellent.
I guess that's all you can say about it.
When Wayne's World,
are you too young to remember
when McDonald's
sold Wayne's World, the Addams Family, and Ghost?
Ghost, and Charlotte's Webb?
My early McDonald's memories are the commemorative cups from Batman Forever.
Right, yeah.
The glass mugglings, of which I still have them.
Wow.
Do you have all of them?
I've got just the Batman.
I've got two of them, though.
I got two Batmans.
The
Too-Faced one, the the handle was a coin.
It was a bunch of coins because he flips a coin all the time.
And then the Riddler one, it was just a big question mark for the whole handle.
Which is what you dressed as for Halloween.
On your show, yeah.
The Riddler.
You dress as the mug.
It's a tribute to the mug.
Yeah, I dressed as the McDonald's cashier, handing the
but now you have a fallback costume that you can always.
Oh, I went and bought the full Riddler suit, question marks on all of it.
And the cane?
I got the cane, and now I'm just ready to go.
Or you could be Matthew Lesko, the guy guy from those infomercials.
Oh, yeah.
Right.
This was question mark.
I was like, aren't they color signs?
If you just black and white the photo of me, I could be any of them.
Yeah, this guy.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I forget what his deal was.
He probably got it canceled.
It is interesting.
Like,
the costume is just like a cheap suit from Spirit Halloween, and it comes with
the jacket and the pants and a little purple tie.
But then to just finish wearing it, I'm like, oh, I got to wear a shirt under it, and I'm just wearing the white shirt that I wore when I got married.
Like,
it just doesn't.
And why is this having to
be Halloween clothes?
Yeah, it makes you think, oh, why didn't I wear this whole damn suit when I got married?
Anyway, so
watch it Fair Speed.
Watch it,
loving it.
But then we also watched, and this is something with the kids, I watched for the first time my favorite movie.
Ooh, Moneyball
Seven, Tar?
These are all my favorite movies.
A Trading Day?
80s movie.
80s movie.
Oh, 80s.
Not Top God.
Let's say 1985.
Yes.
Yeah.
Watch that for the first time with the children.
And?
One of them left.
Well, that one's in my bad books forever.
Yeah.
But it was like some, you know, we'll watch movies.
They're getting older.
The kids are getting older, so they
get things.
Yeah.
And you don't have to explain as much.
So I haven't had to explain much about movies recently.
But this one I felt I had to explain so much about both 1955 and 1985.
Yeah.
Like I didn't have to explain plot.
Like she got that, oh yeah, that's his mom.
He's and he's he's like going to have to pretend to kiss her or whatever.
Yeah.
As long as you get that, you get most of what's going on in the movie.
But the all the like, okay, so
Ronald Reagan is the president in 1985, but in 1955, that's unthinkable.
Right.
Yeah.
And then doesn't he do like a very funny who's uh secretary of state?
Like, uh,
but
who's the first lady?
Jane Wyman?
Um,
yeah.
Was it there was a date uh in the last few years where it was the distance between 1985 to 1955, and it's actually closer 2000, whatever, to,
yeah, 19.
I guess that would have been like 2015.
2015
is when Back to the Future 2 takes place.
Oh, shit.
So
we've passed that without our hover cars.
Well, we do have hoverboards.
Yeah, we have our boards and
they're perfect, and they were exactly what was promised.
I watched a video of the guy who played Biff.
Tom Wilson.
Tom Tom Wilson.
He did some comedy for a while.
I think he still does.
He does a song.
I just watched the song, and the song is really funny.
It's everything you want that song to be.
If you haven't seen it, it's about the things that he says to everybody who asks.
It's all the questions people ask him.
Yeah.
And, you know, was Michael J.
Fox nice?
He's nice, yes.
Yeah,
Thomas F.
Wilson.
Did he ever do anything else?
Most?
That's true.
He was probably one of those guys where it's like, well, you're Biff.
Like, you're Biff forever.
You're not.
Like, maybe as he gets like an old man.
But he was old Biff, too.
So you can't.
You know, like Henry Winkler probably, for the longest time, was the Fawns.
And then he was able to age and be at other things.
But there's every time I watch the movie, there's always like...
There's always questions that people have brought up about like, wait, this doesn't make sense about Back to the Future.
It's like,
okay, so 30 years later, they're just like
they've hired Biff, who was sexually assaulting you 30 years ago.
He's now,
I realize the power dynamic has changed, and he's now working for you.
Yeah.
But he's a successful small business owner still.
I hadn't watched Back to the Picture for a long time.
Even I hadn't watched it for a first time.
It was just one of those ones that existed and I felt like I knew everything that happened in it.
And I was kind of like, I think I kind of missed the boat on this.
And then I finally watched it a few years ago.
And yeah, everything, boom, boom, boom, progressed as normal.
I was like, yep, this is a great fun time.
Except for at the beginning, I was like, this movie's kicked off by Libyan terrorists?
Yeah, yeah.
Like, that's the one part of it that just hadn't seeped into my brain.
Yeah, it's they're driving a VW bus for some reason.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's.
Some of the things don't.
But that doesn't age.
The one thing that I just noticed this time that doesn't add up is, is and I'm sure listeners are like wait this didn't add up for you 10 years ago when you what
you brought this up before but like at the start of the movie Marty McFly is with his loser family yeah they're all uh his dad has a whatever dead end job his mom's an alcoholic his uncle's in jail they have a big cake yeah
I don't think that really changes in the nobody says the kids in the crib and he goes see these bars yeah he's
yeah and then he his sister can't find a date, and his brother works at like Burger King and is about to get on the bus.
Yeah.
Um,
and then 50 or 30 years later, they're all like successful now.
Yeah.
Except they're all having breakfast together at their parents' house.
Like the brother's a lawyer now.
Just popped by my parents on the way to work.
Yeah, and his sister is also at the parents' house, but has a bunch of dates.
Yeah, and it's also like, I feel like probably
the
new rich house they're in is the exact same dimensions as the old house.
It's the exact same house.
Yeah.
Because he wakes up in the same bed.
That's right.
But it's like nice.
Except now they've got
a newspaper and a briefcase, I feel like the brother has.
Well, now he's got a Toyota four by four.
Oh, yeah.
Then he's going to have sex in the back of the bed.
He's going to have sex in the back.
Yeah.
Or no, the bed.
Yeah.
I don't know the parts of a truck.
The bed.
The cab.
Is the cab the bed?
The cat.
What's the front?
The cab.
The cab.
Okay.
He's going to have sex all over that truck.
under it
and forever I had a joke about it where
the biggest thing is that when he comes back to the future of course he like got them together and then they don't recognize him as Kelvin Klein that they went to school yeah also his mom had a crush on him yeah and so the dad wouldn't be like hey wait our son looks like that guy you had a crush on yeah what's up
um but yeah it's definitely like, it's just one of those things.
You just have to let it go or else you're going to just drive yourself insane.
Do you like a time traveling film?
Yeah, I mean,
I like Back to the Future.
I haven't seen it in a while.
The first one that comes to mind for some reason is Looper.
Oh, Looper's great.
I had a fun time watching Looper.
I watched it the once when it came out.
Me too.
Yeah.
I've watched it a couple of times and the way they do away with the explanations of the time travel.
Oh, Edge of Tomorrow is a good thing.
So much fun.
Yeah.
Like, not only is that a movie where they keep going back and, you know, kind of Groundhog Day-esque, hey, keep repeating this moment.
I watched it front-to-back the first time and then immediately just, I was like, you know what?
Let's keep going and just push play again.
Really?
I was like, I want to see this.
30 times in a row wasn't enough of experiencing that fight.
Yeah.
I want to do 60.
That's, I'm, drop, man.
What's a movie where I just saw it and then I wanted to see it right again?
Probably Napoleon Dynamite Thought it was so funny.
Like, there was nothing like it at the time.
It was the funniest,
silliest.
And there was like the hand dancing club.
That was one of those in my school.
Yeah.
Making the birds and stuff.
Yeah.
Yeah.
There was a couple games.
You're going to be, once you go to the hand clinic, you're going to be all better at that.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
They're going to be people in the room that are doing try and make the bird.
Try and make the bird.
Yeah, pop the little splint off.
Like, am I ready for my recital?
But yeah,
all the best of the Napoleon Dynamite.
Yeah, all the best.
Everyone involved in the movies of 2004.
Do you think they'd like Napoleon Dynamite?
Well, that's on the list.
It's pretty silly.
It's pretty silly, but I worry it's too boring in some parts.
Yeah.
I had a big buy-in to it.
I went and saw it several times in the theater.
I remember I saw so many movies in the theater that year.
Here's the list.
Here it goes.
Shit.
Yeah.
Wow.
napoleon dynamite this is great collateral what an exciting list um
collateral is tom cruise tom cruise jamie fox the manchurian candidate oh i haven't seen that who's in that denzel leave shriber
directed by jonathan demi oh okay um
that might have been it um yeah some some years i i hit all the greats but i feel like the last let's say decade i haven't seen any of the oscar winner movies in like maybe one I caught.
I,
especially
only being part-time in the day job, I'm catching all of them.
Like I, last year, I, once the best picture nominees for the Oscars were announced, even once they were announced, I was like, I'd already seen all of them.
Really?
Yeah.
So you're like, right, like movies every day.
This guy, movies.
Yeah.
I'm rolling in them.
I watched Anora earlier this week.
It was really great.
Really great?
What is that?
Oh, you don't know it?
No.
Oh, you got to see Anora.
I only know Love is Blind.
That's all my brain can hold right now.
Here's what I know about Anora.
The guy who made the Florida Project?
Oh, yeah.
The guy.
Yeah, yeah.
Sean Baker.
And
rich
dude
marries a sex worker.
Anything else?
They've never made a movie about that.
I mean, there's a few other things that happen in the movie, if that's your.
And his family, or he's like a gangster?
It is the young son of a Russian oligarch that is in the States and takes a shining to a woman at a strip club.
And who can say that they haven't?
You know what I mean?
Hey, we've all been an oligarch's son.
Yeah.
Exactly.
And just.
Yeah, my dad's a gark.
That's what I say.
What are you some kind of gark?
Well, I'm not a gark.
My dad's a gark.
Yeah, my dad invented paperclips.
But it was good?
Yeah, it's really great.
You think it's going to be a good one?
What's your best picture favorite at this point?
Well, there's
like, who do I think will win best picture or who would I give
it to?
Neither.
Neither.
Great.
Fantastic.
Both.
Both.
From the ones I've...
It seems like Anora's got a pretty good shot of winning it, as maybe
Oh, yeah.
You see it?
I did see it.
It's good.
The clave?
Yeah.
Did you see the clave?
That's not the clave I got right in that clave.
Is that Ray Fiennes in the Conclave?
You got Ray Fiennes in there.
You got Stanley Toochie.
The Duch, the Tooch.
The Tooch.
The Tooch.
Everything you tooch is turns to Stanley.
Yeah, I want to see that.
I thought it was a horror movie, no?
No.
Nope.
Just serious about the Vatican and the Pope.
It is really goofy.
Really?
Like, it is sold like it's a, like, it's a very tense thriller.
And it's certainly, like, got thriller and drama parts to it.
But
especially like halfway through, it just gets goofy and silly.
And the screening I was at was like big laughs all the time.
And Ray Fienes plays The Pope's Exorcist.
Oh, yeah.
Okay.
Feels like there was another movie like that.
But anyways.
Yeah,
I should see some of these movies.
Get out there.
Yeah, but you know, get out there and then get in there, the theater.
I was telling Dave the other day, day like I couldn't sleep
The other night, and so I watched all of the spy who shagged me the Austin Powers.
I'm like I could have watched any movie during that time, but I picked one that was like the lesser of the two Austin Powers.
But the better of the three.
Better of the three, that's right.
So I have no excuse, you know.
There's all sorts of movies I could be watching.
I should be watching.
Is that the way movies work with?
Sequels where they do like the first one's the best, the second is the second best, third is the worst.
Yeah, well, no, I think it's the opposite for Godfather, where I think a lot of people
second is the best, first is the best.
The original Star Wars
trilogy.
But, like,
I guess I mean movies where a sequel wasn't necessary.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Like, do the diehards get worse as they go?
Maybe.
Kind of.
I think the third is better than the second.
Of Die Hard?
Yeah.
Die Hard, The Lone Waves with Samuel Jackson is great.
Yeah, that's the third.
But that was not written as a diehard movie.
It was called Simon Says was the name of the film.
And they sold it and they were like,
let's just put it, let's just make this a diehard movie.
We'll replace the character of John McLean, have him say some real classic, funny dialogue.
Him and Samuel Jackson,
show me a better pair.
You know, they were.
I can't.
Yeah, try.
So I won't.
I just show a picture back of just you and Dave.
Oh my God, we're a better pair.
That's nice.
What's going on with you?
Well, this past weekend,
my mom in her retirement has become an actor.
Oh, my God.
Again?
She didn't get the acting bug out?
No.
Did you try antibiotics?
Yeah, but the doctors say there's just no chasing it out.
It's entrenched.
Wow.
Like a tick.
They can't get it out.
Oh, my God.
She's got Lyme disease
over the stage.
But she.
Lyme light disease.
She's got Lyme Light.
There we go.
Thank you.
All right.
Good night, everybody.
She was in like a...
This is the biggest production she was in.
So I went to Calgary to go see it.
Now, the first time.
Is this her second one that you've seen?
Yes.
The first one was a play I had never heard of.
And this one is called Noises Off.
Oh.
Which you've heard of, yeah?
Yeah.
It's about a wacky party?
Yeah, a wacky play.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
Okay.
Play within a play.
Classic English farce.
We love a farce, don't we?
Boy, don't we, don't we, people?
We all love a farce, don't we?
You know who especially loves a farce is retired people.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah, absolutely.
But sit them down, give them some
worthers and put on faulty towers and got a magnitude for hours.
You know what?
I was just trying to remember what the word farce is.
The last time I saw it is the French equivalent of an English word.
It's turkey stuffing.
Like stovetop stuffing is farce.
Farce.
So this, the play basically is you see the
kind of dress rehearsal of the first night and the like everything's going wrong and the director's yelling at them.
And then the second,
after the first break, second act, the whole stage set is flipped.
So now you're seeing everything backstage.
while the play is going on like edge of tomorrow you see it again exactly and this time fun the first scene or first act, all setting things up, right?
And then had some jokes in it, but man, that second act, woo, does it just go crazy?
And then there's a third act, which is there last night when things they've all given up caring about the show and so it just goes off the rails.
And
was Tess Dagenstein in it when she was on?
Oh, maybe.
I think she had just been in it because that's, I remember making a joke
about how they should change the mute button on the remote control to just say noise is off.
Good joke.
But yeah, it was a lot of fun.
And
who did your mom play?
She played the
maid.
So she's the maid in the play.
Like, they're all playing a character up front.
Now, is everyone in the play retired?
Are there young people too?
No, they're young people, but it's like a community theater.
So nobody's like making any money or anything.
But they hadn't.
They're not sending any ringers in there to blow.
Oh, yeah.
No, the Leaf Driver was in it.
Okay.
Yeah.
He played a very small role, but that's what people were there for mostly.
They didn't have any local Calgary celebrities making
Chris Gordon.
I don't know.
Daryl Jans and Buckshot are both dead.
That's Daryl Janz.
Rest in peace.
Yeah.
That means nothing to you, but it's two.
No, I know Chris Gordon.
Yeah.
They're the big three.
I know him too, but he means nothing to me.
Oh, harsh, Dave, Harsh.
But I saw this play, and so the way that they do
Hitman Hart didn't get there.
He was there.
He was there.
He was wearing the glass.
He gave me the pair of glasses, which is really nice.
Yeah.
I wore them the rest of the play.
Couldn't see a fucking thing.
They have to flip the whole set.
And so they left the curtain up between acts so you could see them flipping the set.
And I was.
I was horrified because this was the actors and crew were all doing the actors were helping to do this.
And I was like, Mommy, no.
Yeah.
Oh, no.
My mom's not.
She's, she's allowed to just sit on the side, which is great.
But I'm just like, somebody's going to, it's not going to be like a massive accident, but somebody's going to get a door slammed on their hand or, you know, take something to the eye or something.
Fuck the buck with the leg.
Yeah, that's the other thing.
You were allowed to do some shots
through the windows of the set.
But yeah,
I was, that's why I can't enjoy like a Cirque du Soleil.
I'm too worried, too worried about the performers, you know?
Right.
So I was too worried that somebody's going to get their finger caught in something.
Like you, you can relate.
Yeah.
Wait, did you say what it was from?
No, I didn't.
It's like Michael Douglas, but with.
Somebody broke my finger.
Damn, Catherine Jada Jones.
Yeah, what did you do?
It's not even a fun story.
I was out for a a run and I tripped and I fell.
That's right.
Didn't you injure yourself running once?
Yeah, and the difference in the story is when you fell, what happened?
I was by myself.
I just fell and I landed.
And then I live in Kitsilano, so I was out for a run into like the Shaughnessy neighborhood.
Yeah.
Because I was like, this is quiet.
No one's there.
This is lovely.
Which is like nice until you need medical attention.
Yeah.
And so I'm just like
sitting there waiting.
I immediately called my wife, like, come get me, please.
Did you hurt your legs as well?
Was she like, you can't fucking walk?
Here's the thing.
Like,
I've had to do more because of the fractured finger, but like the most important,
the skinned knees.
Skinned my knees real bad.
Not a phone.
Well, but eventually somebody did walk by.
And it was this random dude like.
Gareth.
His name was Gareth.
I found out.
He was very nice to me.
And he's like, I'm going to stay with you until like
your wife picks you up
and he told me that uh
uh so he he was a a lifeguard and uh but he was he used to be uh being a lifeguard meant that you have to be like certified by like the st.
John's ambulance right
and technically his certification had like he was like it expired but if it was still active legally I would have to hang out with you until someone comes to help that's why Graham does this podcast.
He legally has to hang out with me.
Yeah, until you heal from your hockey injury.
Yeah.
But now what was your injury?
Same.
I fell.
Right.
You hurt my hand.
Your hand, yeah.
I was running the same way.
And then I was on the ground, kind of trying to roll over, and a man saw me and walked away.
Just kept on going like he didn't see me at all.
I sometimes run through Shaughnessy as well.
And I do feel like it's, for people not from Vancouver, it is the richest part of town.
Oh, yes.
I mean, you're from West Vancouver, so you probably look down on it.
But it's like old, super old mansions.
It's just nice to be there amongst the people.
Yeah.
It's real.
People that work for a living, you know.
But the,
like, as nice as the houses are, the streets are super wide.
No one takes care of their sidewalk.
The sidewalks are.
Oh, yeah.
They're super uneven.
In the winter and fall, no one cleans up their snow or leaves.
Because they just get in the car and drive away.
There's no,
and there's like no foot traffic anyway.
No one complains.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But yeah, I had a guy just walk away.
It was,
I was like, well, I guess, okay, I'll just hobble my way home, which is what I did.
And then I did get a cast.
I made my own wrap.
Because then I went to get it.
It was a chicken Caesar wrap.
Couldn't get my hands off it.
But I went and I got a chicken.
No, a chicken Caesar wrap.
It's got the chicken in it and some Caesar salad.
I guess, yes, I was just a Caesar salad with the chicken.
Yeah.
Now, listeners will remember that from the Miles Anderson episode.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, Miles.
Yeah, yeah.
But yeah, I went, I remember I went to the doctor, got an x-ray,
and they said, it's fine.
It doesn't appear to be anything broken.
I was like, yeah, but I know there's something broken.
And then I went back, you know, like three weeks later and got another x-ray.
And
whoever the attending physician was like, huh, there's a little crack in your hand that seems to have healed.
And I was like, yeah, what didn't you, what do you think that's from?
Like, put it together.
When my daughter broke her leg when she was one and a half, they x-rayed her and they're like, well, put her in a cast, but it doesn't look broken.
But come back in a couple of weeks because that's how they knew it was broken because they can see it healing better than they can see the original fracture.
So when I
broke this, at first I just went to this, like the urgent care center, and they x-rayed it and they looked.
And the doctor there was like, oh, yeah, it's a fracture, but like, I'm really worried about those skinned knees of yours.
Yeah.
Youch.
Ouch.
Your boy got a tetanus shot for that.
Whoa.
Yeah.
Smart.
Yeah.
But the doctor there said, like, hey, yeah, you're fractured, but everything's all
fractured.
Yeah, you've been fractured.
Yeah, which I think is an M.
Night Shyamalan movie.
And I'm Dr.
Jim Fracture.
You just got fractured.
But they said, hey,
it's fractured.
Your finger is fractured.
But you are not broken.
You are a whole soul.
But head back to St.
Paul's Hospital in a week and a half, and they'll check you out.
And then they re-x-rayed me there.
And then those doctors just shit talked the other doctor
the whole time.
They're like, yeah, no, it's fully displaced.
We have to fix this.
And then they're talking to each other like, we're going to have to have a talking too with that other doctor.
Yeah.
Good luck.
Yeah,
he was run off his feet.
Well, that's why I ended up just doing the like bandage thing because I couldn't, like, I didn't get a splint.
I didn't get anything fun.
I just got bandages.
I didn't, you know, I didn't get something molded.
I didn't get to wear a boot, you know, like any of the fun-breaking
get a cast or something like that.
I mean, casts are probably not very fun.
Sure.
Have you ever had a cast?
Nope.
Me neither.
You?
The closest is this little guy.
Shit.
Yeah.
I uh they barely even had a cast.
Your mom was cast in in a play.
Nice, nice, very nice.
Um, she's getting a reputation around town as some kind of
actor, yeah, yeah.
An actress about town.
She uh auditioned.
They're like, hey, I know you.
Yeah, that's how she got in this play.
See, uh, somebody had seen her in another play, and she went to audition, and she gave him a role because she was like, you're really good in that other play.
She's off her only now.
Yeah, yeah, she won't get out of bed for less than $10,000.
It's killing my dad.
And my bed.
But no,
it was really fun.
It's long.
It was like almost three hours long.
Hey, three-act plays.
Let's lose the third.
Yeah, yeah.
We got the picture after the second.
You got an intermission in there?
Two.
Two intermissions.
That makes an act.
You got it.
Two intermissions.
And it was in this huge.
During the intermissions, you go get bubblegum?
I went and got
a poster of the cast.
I got.
It was at Wrigley theater yeah i got a poster of the cast um and uh
uh just a memorabilia from the play you know you can wear this uh ring like the one character did
um but it uh yeah everybody was really good and it was really enjoyable and it was inside this giant ymca that's like has a ymca and a library and a theater and like all this crazy shit in there And I don't know when the last time you guys were in a YMCA, but woo-wee!
They've grown.
They've grown.
Yeah, I used to go to YMCA.
I went to one when I was a young man.
Go on.
Was it fun?
It was fun to stay at
such a place.
The aforementioned place.
Yeah.
So, yeah, saw a play, flew on a plane.
Oh, you didn't miss you.
Hold that phone.
Flew on a plane.
Now, I heard you don't need to take out your
flying within Canada.
You don't need to take out your liquids or electronics anymore.
Apparently, only at the
C terminal, which is where all the Air Canada flights go from, they've got the new machines that look like
CAT scans or MRI machines.
They're huge, huge white cylinders.
Oh, so this is a technology-based change, not a
we're chilling out.
Yeah, right.
Yeah, or we can admit that this is all bullshit.
Yeah, yeah, this is all theater.
Not the good kind of theater that your mom's in.
I know my mom auditioned to be a guard.
Yeah.
Yeah, I was really, I was really...
When you go through security the second time and then you're the security.
Well, when you're now we watch you.
You go for your job interview.
There's like, okay, did you bring a song?
But it was...
Yeah, I was let down because I flew Flare Airlines, you see, and people outside of Canada.
It's the discount, discount, discount airline, which is fine.
If you're going to Calgary,
I've traveled.
I love packing.
I love being good at packing.
Travel with just a tote bag for the whole weekend, just a tote bag.
And I put it, there's a sizing thing, and I put it in.
And the Flare employee was like, nice.
Again.
Wow.
You're getting complimented left and right.
Like at first, it didn't fit, and I just moved one thing and fit perfectly.
Nice.
Yeah.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
I like a trip to Victoria for the weekend where I'm just like, I just have a little backpack.
Like, that's it.
Yeah.
And it's also like you can think, I'm going to my parents' house.
I got a pair of sweats there.
I can wash anything that I want if I need to wash anything.
So I didn't need to buy it.
I have an accident on the plane.
Oh, no.
What happened again?
The neater has a whole costume department.
I'll be fine.
Do you guys want?
Sorry.
I was going to say, Mom, after you play, can you play?
Can you bring home some dry pants?
I can't emphasize dry enough.
I don't care if they're tuxedo pants or if they're, yeah, burlap kind of pants.
And mom, can you put them in the microwave for me?
Do you guys want to move on to some overheards?
Yeah.

Overheard.
Overheard's a segment of the show where, boy, oh boy, is it great to hear things or see things or even dream things we like you to share and we always like to start with the guest.
Colin, do you have an overheard?
Yeah.
Mine comes from the category, which is one of my personal favorite categories of overheard, which is teens on the bus.
Yeah.
They go round and round, don't they, folks?
Oh, they love them.
We love those folks.
And
yeah,
there was a group of teens,
these young gals talking to each other.
And then they're telling a story.
They're just shit talking to their friend.
Overheard their friend who's there?
A friend that wasn't there.
Okay.
So it was, I guess it was bullying, you could say.
Well, if if he's not there, you can't, you can bully the army.
You can bully the arm, then.
But they're talking about this friend of theirs, and then one of them says to the other, oh my God, she calls literally every teacher by their first name.
Shit.
That's a power play.
In high school to do that?
Hey, Dan.
I wouldn't know what to say.
Call me Mr.
McCrimmon.
Did you have a Mr.
McCran?
Yes, he was a chemistry teacher.
Yeah.
I know, I guess I knew all my teachers' first names.
I didn't.
I don't know that I know them now.
I guess you could look at them.
Why would you know them now?
Because I have a
voice in the next sense.
Yeah, I don't know.
Geez, did I know anybody's?
No.
I always called them by their last name.
Yeah, I always called them by their last name, but you knew their first names.
Yeah, I think I knew almost always.
Yeah, I knew.
you know, they would send home
whatever, like a field trip slip, and it would say their name on it.
Oh, I would just be faking that signature.
I wouldn't pay attention to who was on it.
You're not a paperwork guy.
No, nope.
I'd just fill out.
That's why
you're just not cut out to be like a modern cop.
No, I'm not a modern cop.
And also, you know, I signed one of those horrible in sync or Backstreet Boys or TLC.
Yeah, he got caught by Lou Perlman.
Yeah.
Oh, boy.
Why did I go in for his his blimp company?
Is that part of him?
Yeah.
That's how he made his money.
You didn't make any money off the Backstreet Boys?
No, that's how he's able to produce.
I never spent any of my Backstreet Boys money.
This is all off the blimp.
His story is actually very funny if you ever hear the full story of Lou Pearlman.
Maybe I should.
He's like,
My problem with so many of these modern day documentaries the last few years is they're about things I already knew about.
Yeah.
Like I know, I witnessed Woodstock 99.
I was around for the Menendez brothers.
Yes, yeah.
I watched Michael Jordan play basketball.
I liked when they were doing documentaries about things that were from before I was born.
Yeah.
This is
yeah, anyways.
I like the one where it was just a guy made friends with an octopus.
I was like, I didn't know anything about this.
Oh, I did, because that was from my lifetime.
Right.
Oh,
it wasn't anybody you knew, was it?
It was my octopus.
It was my, the guy calls him my octopus teacher.
I know the octopus's first name.
What is it?
Gerald.
Gerald octopus.
Don't you call me by my first name.
Dave, do you have an octopus?
Yes.
Mine was, I actually overheard this on the radio.
Okay.
That's where you hear things.
Yeah.
Honestly, that's what it's for.
Yeah.
You're going to pick any medium to hear something through.
Well, the medium is the message, my good man.
I overheard that from my teacher, Marshall.
Nice.
Nice.
The original Eminem.
So I was listening to the radio and they were talking about...
No, I was listening to Z95.
Z95.3,
Z95.
Z95.
And it's a pop music station.
And we were listening on the way to school.
And they had just given away
this woman was on the phone, and she had just won tickets to Sabrina Carpenter Live.
Oh,
that'd be a good show.
Yeah, well, you know, she's working light.
Absolutely.
And
the woman is like, oh my god, they're asking her, who are you going to go with?
Oh, I will, I mean, I'm going to go with my son.
I'm usually, we drive to school together.
I just dropped him off early today.
He'll be so excited.
And they were like, should we call him?
And so they called the school where he had just been dropped off.
And it was like 83.
This is pretty good radio.
Yeah, it was great radio.
I was listening.
I was like, this is, I want it.
I'm so.
Is this all happening in real time?
It was like 8.35 in the morning.
Okay.
And she was like, I just dropped him off.
And so she called,
the hosts called the school.
The woman,
the mother, is talking to the secretary.
The secretary says, whatever.
Hello, whatever.
So-and-so school.
And she says, hi, I just dropped off my son.
Can you go get him and put him on the phone?
And the secretary's like,
well, you're not supposed to drop anyone off before 8:45.
We don't have supervision outside.
But yes, I'll go get him.
And so they put him on,
put everyone on hold.
And then you hear the son pick up the phone, hello.
And the mother says, Hey, we're on the radio.
The hosts are going to tell you something.
And the hosts say,
You just, your mom just won tickets to see Sabrina Carpenter.
And the boy goes, he's probably like 11 or 12.
And he goes, am I really on the radio?
And they go, yeah.
Wait, everyone can hear me right now?
Oh, this is adorable.
And they say, yeah.
He goes, follow me on TikTok.
These kids, they know an opportunity when they see it.
Oh, man, that's good.
Yeah, that's like dream radio to have some kind of fun little twist with a phone call.
Because,
yeah, those giveaway things can kind of be a little dry, you know?
But also, 11-year-old boy going to see Sabrina Carpenter, this is going to be a real awakening for him.
Yeah, and also, I think we should all stay tuned to his TikTok because you're going to see some footage from the car.
You're definitely going to see it.
Oh, I saw a couple of teenagers yesterday doing a TikTok dance right in front of the Starbucks.
I saw someone on the street the other day on my parents' street, like her dad
had parked the car
and she was out on the street doing the like
anything with you, make a heart with your hands.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Classic.
And her phone was out.
Like, her phone was sitting on the car filming her.
It was great.
Kids, don't ever give up on your TikTok dances.
Now, my over scene has a kind of a visual component to it.
Oh, my God.
I spend a good chunk of any day on the Facebook marketplace.
I want to see what they're.
What's a good chunk?
Grim went cross-line.
But some more or less time in a week than I spend working.
10 hours.
10 hours.
I mean, if you broke it up, I would say probably, let's say, four hours a week if you broke it up into little segments.
Also, past guest Alicia Tobman will send me ones for a scary ventriloquist doll or some kind of weird thing like that.
So this
was a business for sale.
Okay.
Business for sale.
Exclusive product, website, and rights for sale.
It is.
Comes with a TikTok account.
$7,000.
Okay.
This business.
It's a novelty.
It's a novelty product.
And
vomit?
No, but you're right in the right.
Okay.
We're in the bathroom.
So it's something to do with...
Oh, I don't vomit in the bathroom.
I vomit in the boardroom.
Any guesses as to what if we're talking this is.
Is it a fake product?
Like a fake
rubber duck.
It's like something to create a fake thing.
So it's not rubber ducks.
And is it a fake bodily thing?
Is it fake boo?
Nope.
Fake pee?
Yes, fake pee.
Fake pee.
It's called the pee puck, you see.
Okay.
So it's kind of like 2000 flushes blue, maybe?
I don't know.
You put it in the tank.
Yeah.
It makes it look like somebody's just peed in the back.
But somebody did just pee in the back.
Yeah, I mean, it's not a good business, I don't think.
So it's a yellow food coloring that they're.
The whole big prank is someone flushes the toilet and then it still looks yellow.
It still looks yellow.
Wow.
I think you got an idea for a new kind of ice to make.
It says makes toilet water yellow for days.
For days?
Ditto.
There you go.
There's Peapuck.
Wow.
Yeah.
And you could have the exclusive rights.
Yeah, $7,000.
What's the, it says the website comes with it.
What's the website?
Peapuck.piss.
It's got to be
boundpetus.for.
Yellow Disney.
YellowForDays.piss.
I told you I got hit by a puck the other day.
Yes.
So you're naturally afraid of them now.
And his bruise has been yellow for days.
Yeah.
You thought hockey puck.
So seven grand.
What do you think?
Should it get in there?
It comes with a website?
You got to think he's got a list of vendors.
Nowhere to go, but up.
And this is funny.
This is a funny thing.
It looks like it has actual packaging.
Like, you're not just buying a concept, you know?
Oh, and you'll never guess.
Number one toilet brank says they're right.
Look where I'm going.
Number one toilet brank.
Sharks, I have an idea for you.
Yeah, I'm looking for $7,000 for 100% of my company.
and like they don't they still don't get an offer I wouldn't
how much would you what how much would you think would you pay for I don't know a lot about business but that's a bad product it is a bad product and it's you know what I it's like not
scary enough I want it to be like blood coming out of the face yeah yeah I mean
yeah I mean, maybe it's that maybe it doesn't have to be yellow.
Maybe it could be red.
But then that would be scary.
But that could be the number one toilet prank.
It could be the next generation.
I'm just like, is it also just, is it neutral smell?
That's a great question.
This guy's got all these ice cube ideas.
Oh, and then he's got, there's a cartoon character like shouting something, and it's yelling, who didn't flush again?
So this package really does.
But that's not the biggest deal.
Like, that's not so pranky.
You're like, oh, no, someone didn't flush.
Oh, poo?
No, P.
Nah, P, it's fine.
I'll just flush it.
Whoa, whoa, what?
There's still P in the.
Okay, well.
Your toilet's broken.
Your toilet's broken.
Well, have you tried plunging it?
Okay.
Not really the issue, but I will try that, though.
But yeah, seven grand, you think, is probably too steep?
If I could talk them down to five.
I'm not a good salesman, so I'm not going to be able to sell these things.
Not door-to-door?
Well, I think it's a good sign anytime any business is being sold on Facebook marketplace.
Yeah.
That's four figures.
That's usually
high four figures.
Yeah.
It's funny that he calls it a business as opposed to a product.
Well, I mean, he does have the website, which I got to think is peapok.com
or thepeapoc.com.
No, just Peapock.
It's cleaner.
It's cleaner.
That's good.
Now, we also have overheard sent into us from people all over the map.
If you wanted to send one into us, send it into spy at maximumfund.org like these people have.
Oh,
stage line.
This first one is Rachel in Atlanta, Georgia.
Now, when I do my line, I'm really going to have to juice it up.
Yeah, but you can, though.
I have faith.
I was watching my daughter's gymnastic practice, and two women a few rows in front of me were talking much, much louder than necessary while their conversation was full of gems.
My favorite was when they were talking about whether their respective daughters were starting to become interested in romance.
One said, they're getting to the age where they have celebrity crushes.
So I think that's why they love that movie.
But I mean, who's not attracted to Captain Jack Sparrow?
Can't remember the name of the movie, but you know the guy that was very crushable.
Yeah,
shoot higher, you know, I think.
Well, Orlando Bloom is the real hard throb in that one.
True.
Yeah.
Or Jeffrey Rush.
Is he the Tentacillo guy?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Tental Gill guy rules.
What is
how old do they say these kids are?
No mention?
No mention.
No.
But, you know, the age where they're, were they starting to become interested in order?
Because people are.
I mean, in my teeny years, people loved
Johnny Depp, but then he started becoming a living cigarette.
Yeah, just a collection of sentient scarves.
I was going to say, a character actor.
Yeah.
And he's a character in real life from all I learned from the trial he was a part of.
You sure?
I've only heard good things.
Yeah, no, he drinks a lot of wine.
All the girls at my school were like, oh, I got a big crush on Johnny Depp as Tonto.
Oh, I was always kind of an Edward Scissor hand man.
I was leather daddy, and he's got an spades.
He was very cute in that.
He was very cute.
He was very cute for a long time and then uh started doing johnny depp only
features you know
um
but uh we wish him the best
uh this next one's from tom from portland oregon sitting at a panera waiting for food two girls get up from a booth to clear their table girl i just feel so fulfilled And I think I got cream cheese on my pants.
It's okay.
Cream your jeans.
That's why I said that.
i don't know why i brought that to you
that's that's why i picked that over have you been to a panera
no is it a
coffee shop yeah soups and sandwiches oh yeah no i've never met you yeah once good
fine yeah i think once as well for me yeah in toronto it was in i was at one in seattle it's just like hey do you want a real like seven out of ten panini So what would, if you had to choose between a Panera or Pratt, what would you pick?
I haven't had any of the Prett.
I mean, I guess here I only know Pratt from it invading A ⁇ W.
Yeah, it's an A ⁇ W.
I haven't been to the Pretts in the UK.
They have a good reputation.
I guess the equivalent of Panera would be like Tim Hortons, maybe, as a big chain.
It feels, I mean, I don't know if
there's any of them left, but it feels somewhere between Tim Hortons and like, you remember Bread Garden?
Yeah.
Bread Garden.
Yeah.
I do remember Brett.
It feels like in between there, somewhere.
It's definitely bread garden-coated,
but there just aren't very many of them anymore.
There's one in Olympic Village, for sure.
Is there?
No, that's terra bread.
Same thing, though.
Yeah, yeah.
Breads, you know.
Yeah.
This last one comes from.
Oh, sorry.
That last one was from Mike from Maryland.
This one's from Tom from Portland.
Okay.
I was at a diner, and there was a guy sitting near me waiting for a to-go order.
After a few minutes, an employee walked up to him and handed him a wrapped burrito.
The man said, thank you, and sat for a moment before standing up to leave.
Before walking out the door, he turned to the employee at the counter and confusedly held out his burrito and asked, Is this the brisket plate?
And the employee said, No, you asked for a burrito.
The man looked at the menu for a minute, or looked at the menu for a minute before saying, You don't even have a brisket plate.
Why was I asking you?
It's not even on the side.
I don't know.
Brisket
comes on on a.
What does it come with, brisket?
Well, brisket is a cut of meat.
Yeah.
And it's usually like slow-smoked.
Yeah.
It'll be at a barbecue restaurant, and they'll slice it up.
They'll give it to you.
It could be on a plate or in a sandwich.
Oh, man.
Yeah, you could have a brisket sandwich.
If it's on a plate, maybe it comes with some coleslaw.
Yeah.
Or maybe it's with a selection of meats.
Yeah.
Have either of you ever been to a place that has like a real smoker out in back?
No.
I
had a me neither.
Uh years ago, I mean the only smokers out back in most of these restaurants, the chefs.
Yeah, yeah.
Have you seen the bear?
I did I had a work trip where we went to Dallas a few years ago.
Right.
And so I went to like a Texas barbecue place where they like you walk like through the place where they're smoking it and it is it's it's all it lives up to it.
It's so good.
Yeah.
But like they've you just you're pointing at things that you want and they serve it all for you.
And the I think the one that surprised me more the most was just that
they had all this corn in the cob and they just kept it in a melted pot of butter and they just pulled it right out of that for you.
You're not going to believe it.
Pretty good.
Yeah.
Yeah.
My God.
Oh man.
I saw an employee training video for some restaurant from the 80s and the roast beef guy that cuts roast beef at the have you seen that?
Is that the one about making like small talk?
Yeah.
See the game last night?
Did they give you all these examples of what small talk you might want to have?
There was no game last night.
Oh, fuck.
I'm screwed.
No, not anywhere?
Well, the weather, let me tell you.
Go away, come back.
Have you seen The Wrong Guy
with Dave Foley?
Have you ever seen it?
No, I haven't heard it.
Oh, it's
like legendary.
The first half hour, I think, is my favorite movie.
Yeah,
it's so funny.
But at the very beginning, he thinks he's getting a promotion that day, and everyone he's talking to in the office, big day today.
Oh, big day.
How are you doing today?
Big day.
And then he goes up to two guys.
Did you guys see the game last night?
There was no game last night.
Huh.
Big day, though.
My favorite gag, and we're doing gags from it.
He's in the hospital, and they ask him his name.
And he goes, he does that thing where he looks around the room where he's like, my name is Ivy
Bed Ban.
She's like, Do you want to try that again?
And he goes, Yeah, yeah.
My name, he looks at her name on her uniform and goes, Nurse Nancy.
She's like, That's my name.
Okay, my next favorite day
from it is when he goes into his boss's office and his boss has been murdered
and he's freaking out.
He pulls the knife out of the guy's back, and he's like,
He starts screaming because he's got a knife on his back.
He's trying to put the knife back into him
gently.
God, that movie's good.
Underrated and unheralded.
Yeah, should be on everybody's mantle.
No, standback.

Hello, Dave, Graham, and Ghost.
This is Rob from Broomfield, Colorado.
I'm

I'm behind a driver right now, a new driver with three bumper stickers.
One says, New driver, good luck, everyone.
Internal screaming.
Nice.
The other one says, new driver, honking won't help.
And then new driver, expect stupid stuff.
Anyway, off I go.

yeah no freaking way don't freaking way i think we need to add
to the canon
oh good that was good they uh the the bumper stickers were fine bumper stickers are fine but you know why i yeah yeah
three bumper stickers on the one theme yeah i'm bad at driving i'm new and commitment i'm new and bad yeah lookout yeah i mean uh
like when you put a bumper sticker on a car is it impossible to take off without ruining the paint job like are you stuck with that bumper sticker you must be able to i had to i wonder i've my whole life my parents told me no you never put a bumper sticker on a car because it'll ruin the paint drive.
It'll ruin the paint drive.
It'll never come off.
Yeah, but your parents hadn't seen these bumper stickers.
I've also seen the...
They had no idea how new and bad you were going to be at driving.
I've seen now magnets that are bumper stickers, but they're magnets and then support our troops.
Yeah, and then people can just take them, steal from you at a time.
Now I support the troops.
I commit to your statement.
The magnets.
I've been thinking about my idea for a bumper sticker, about trying to get it made.
Okay.
Mine is, do you know when you're, do you drive?
Yeah.
When you're at a left turn lane and there's like the little sensor on the side.
People don't, people pull up past the sensor.
Or they don't realize that.
Yeah, the sensor is for up to three cars, but if there's only two cars, you can both be on a sensor.
My
bumper sticker would say, if you can read this, back up onto the left turn sensor.
Nice.
That's pretty good.
I don't have an idea for a bumper sticker.
Oh, no, one that has all the religious symbols and it says coexist.
Is that good?
Is that a good one?
My idea is Calvin peeing on that one.
Oh, peeing on the coexist.
I like that.
Also, I would also accept Punisher with American flag instead of white Punisher symbol.
Okay.
Hello, gents.
It's Julianne calling from Pennsylvania.
We are sitting on the porch thing to treat, and the six-year-old girl comes up.
and she's so excited, and she likes me, and I go, My pleasure, babe.
And she leaps off the porch chanting, she calls me a pleasure, babe.
I'm a pleasure, babe.
All right, then I'll go.
Pleasure babe.
I mean, talk about 80s.
Pleasure babe.
80s movie.
The fun romp.
Who starred in Pleasure Babe?
It was Anthony Michael Hall.
Oh, cool.
Yeah.
Who did he play?
He played the titular.
He played
pleasure band.
Wow.
Yeah.
It was ahead of its time.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Anthony Michael Hall.
Or way behind its time.
Yeah, they did that as well in the 80s.
Yeah.
Yeah.
There's some things that,
yeah, upon watching them as an adult, I'm like, ooh,
didn't track that as much when I was a kid.
Oh, well, every joke was a gay joke.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And you know what?
You don't have to show those ones to your daughters.
I'm afraid I do.
You don't have to.
Is it 16 Candles?
There's a character in it that's
racial stereotype.
Yep.
Oh, yeah.
Racial stereotype.
Yep.
Well, in Forensic had a character who was a Rachel stereotype.
And someday we're going to make sure that doesn't happen.
And yes, I was doing some election canvassing in Wisconsin
this past week and knocked on a door.
A young man comes out.
Young man.
And I ask him if he would mind telling me who he's planning on voting for.
And he says, yeah,
I'm voting for the lady.
And
a voice comes out of the ring doorbell,
a smart doorbell there, that says,
her name is Kamala Harris.
And he says, sorry, mama.
Sorry, mama.
Yes, I'm voting for Kamala Harris.
Go back to work, mom.
I could barely make it three steps away from the door, I think.
So she's at work getting this on her phone.
Oh my gosh.
My dunderheaded son.
Yeah.
Yeah.
First of all, if you have one of those doorbells where you can see who's ringing it,
don't answer.
Yeah.
Yeah, exactly.
Put a no.
Do they obey the no soliciting signs that I put up?
Yeah.
Sometimes I do see on our camera, sometimes someone will come up the stairs, see them, and turn right around on the
yeah
the important part is anytime a canvasser comes to your door as they're leading you got to say my pleasure babe my pleasure babe
I'm my pleasure babe I'm collecting for the pleasure babe society would you or like they do a charge drug mart would you like to give some money to women

They never say anything to you.
Like the, they're not like.
They're profiling.
Magazine, magazine, magazine, magazine.
You want a magazine, magazine, magazine.
But they're standing there.
And I wonder, it's always in a group of two.
I wonder, do you get to pick who you stand with?
Or you're like, oh, I'm with...

Tune into your local radio station.

algorithm who's like a home just renovating her house and she just raves about we hired the Amish to build this barn and it rules.
They were they did it in a day.
Here they make amazing furniture.
They make fantastic quilts.
There's the Amish equivalent in Canada, the Hutterites.
They make some great furniture quilts as well.
You would hate them.
You've got a mustache and they've got everything but.
Yeah.
Oh, they'd be like, who's the new guy as you walk into town?

Reverso over there.

Reverso.

Reverso.
Do you remember when Anthony Michael Hall played Mr.
Reverso?
Yeah, Mr.
Reverso.
In a kind of a gender swap thing.
Oh, man.
There were so many of those in the 80s.
Gender swap, dad, and kid swap.
Yeah.
And then there's like somebody pretending to be a woman to get in somewhere.
Somebody pretending to be black, black.
That probably aged not so well.
I don't think I've ever seen that movie.
Soul Man, yeah.
No.
Some pretending to be a mannequin.
What was that called?
Pleasure Band.
It's Reverso Mannequin.
