Starting point is 00:00:00 Okay, there you go. That answered my question. So I guess we're not going to talk about QPie this week. You had an offer on the table, Sean, and you decided not to take me up on it, and now you've got to deal with the consequences. Two's talks too much. 29 to smash up, 29. And I wasn't going to let the fans down.
Starting point is 00:01:05 We're going to have more than 15 seconds, 22.2 seconds. Anything they wanted to say, what did you hear all night at the SMP presents QDM and twos? What did you hear? Was it a clip? I heard laughter and applause, but not when you were talking. Interesting. That's a nice dig. You know what's funny about that night?
Starting point is 00:01:23 There was these two ladies there, sisters, and I think it was Megan, Megan, Megan, I'm killing it. And Rachel, I believe. And we're in the casino after I'm walking through, and they're both wearing hats. You know, QDM, SMP. It's funny, they weren't wearing a twos until, you know, somebody got a little frustrated, shall we say. You know, had to go give some free hats out.
Starting point is 00:01:47 I'd just like to point that out there. So they may not have been laughing at me, but they were sure sporting the SMP. That's all I've got to say there, twos. Fair enough. Well, yeah, I mean, when I saw it, I was immediately like, what the hell is this? And then you came up right afterwards with this shit-eating grin
Starting point is 00:02:03 and put the same two-and-two together. We all knew. I'm going to hear about this later. We all knew what it was. Hey, it is Mashup 29. It's brought to you by Rohan Rig Services where rooster slurpers are not in that crew. And I don't think you got to worry about too many shipbirds there either.
Starting point is 00:02:20 That's just my guess, you know? One of the things that Rohan is known for, like they're a quality operation all around, and they've got a reputation for having good guys running the iron too, right? Yeah. So if you're a good guy, you're sitting out east. You're sitting somewhere in Alberta. Take a look in the show notes and have at her.
Starting point is 00:02:39 You know, going back to the Saturday night when we were on stage, first off, twos did his first ever stand up in front of live people. I got a lot of feedback saying you did a good job and people really enjoyed it. The overall night twos was a ton of fun. And I got to say, we got some pretty great listeners who braved a lot of weather to come out and see us Yahoo's on stage. The weather was an absolute bastard And people made the trip anyway
Starting point is 00:03:07 And some of them came From as far as Dawson Creek and Abbotsford Yeah And phenomenal Phenomenal And for people listening Thursday I'll be releasing I believe just the audio
Starting point is 00:03:20 I'm working on the video right now We'll see if we can Piece that together But regardless no matter what Thursday we will have The round table portion of the show So for people wanting to hear what they missed That's it now
Starting point is 00:03:32 I got this in from a listener and I like me I didn't get grab their name but it said hi Sean and boxhead big fan of the podcast and Sean keep playing the full damn song you got it sir or ma'am whoever no worries I'm defending you yeah yeah you guys tries to that that keep up the good work and Trudeau was a rooster slurper hey I'm just saying you got the text too I sent it along to you know it you can deny it all you want you can die all you want you know everything we're gonna find out at some point Sean's got more phones than a drug dealer and he's just been artificially trying to pump the numbers up.
Starting point is 00:04:06 I'm drawing name, I'm doing it on like a paint, putting our names in the sand and saying it's PEI. It's just me on an app. That's it. All right, let's kick this sucker off here. We got 11 topics this week. We'll see how we do close to the time. Hey, we never seem to get that close, but we'll see.
Starting point is 00:04:25 Liberals don't like free speech episode Tuesday. I don't know, my Roman numerals. MCXLV-11111. 8's at the end of it, I think. Yeah, so 1,148. Okay, okay. Because the L comes after the X, so the X subtracts from it, which means 40, where L being 50. Okay.
Starting point is 00:04:51 Thank you for that. You're very welcome. So a lot of this, the first article, is all about Twitter and how much money are government spends on Twitter. The federal government spent... Used to spend. Spent over 3 million on Twitter ads through 2020, 2021,
Starting point is 00:05:08 according to the most recent annual report. Numerous major companies have paused on advertising on Twitter, including, well, the government of Canada, General Mills, General Motors, Pfizer, and Volkswagen. I mean, just with Pfizer pulling their ads spending, you know it's going to be a
Starting point is 00:05:24 better place, you know what I'm saying? Yeah, there's... Well, you know, it's... must have been a really hard decision for everybody at Pfizer because we know that they do have very big hearts and if they couldn't bring themselves to support Twitter that that really must be saying something all this comes on the layoffs that Twitter had they basically axed a huge chunk of people and so they were worried about what did it say prompted increased concern about the effectiveness of Twitter's moderation and
Starting point is 00:06:00 brand safety which essentially means ensuring that advertising placed next to content does not negatively impact the reputation of the advertiser. That's what our government is worried about right now. So it's either a them trying to find a justified way to say that they don't want to support what Elon Musk is doing, which makes perfect sense because it goes directly at odds with everything the liberals do. Free speech? Fuck that. I'm Justin Trudeau.
Starting point is 00:06:29 And then the other way is, them either saying, okay, well, now that they've laid off all these people in useless positions, maybe they're not going to be able to control things as much as they did before. So it's either they've got concerns about the outcome or they just are against it on a principle. But either way, it's the same. Yeah, I agree. I mean, that was a little loud anyways. The CFL is ran by a 13-year-old girl.
Starting point is 00:06:54 I had to chuckle out your headline. And then I read off the twisted T. I didn't think the CFL was going to be a part of. was going to be a part of our show. I don't know if it has to this point. Anyways, the Twisted T. Gray Cup halftime show, here are the three singers. Jordan Davis, Josh, Ross, and Tyler Hubbard.
Starting point is 00:07:13 Do you know any of those three? Yeah, well, Jordan Davis is kind of an up-and-coming. They're all country guys. Jordan Davis is a little bit up-and-coming. He's kind of like a less shitty version of Evan and Jaron, which doesn't really say that much. Tyler Hubbard's half of Florida Georgia line. carry on and so anyway it's just it's this long running trend of the cfl getting just i don't know like
Starting point is 00:07:41 like tyler hubbard's not going to get up there and sing around here in cruise he's going to do his own solo stuff and and then you've got just a couple really fledgling people and you just think about how much opportunity there is at the halftime show to find a good lineup that would get people riled up and excited like it's in regina this is here get the sheep dogs to play get big sugar to open for them get cold wall white mouth mason and that's where i was going next or colter freaking wall anyway yeah i mean i know colter wall stuff doesn't really play well to a big party situation you know i mean i don't know man but you could just tell him you know just bust out some old whalen or something like that just
Starting point is 00:08:24 do do a few fun covers or something and you know some some high energy stadium type stuff and he'd blow the roof off the place. You know, when I, when I saw the names on the on the list, I was like, I wonder if they're, you know, if there's small town Saskatchewan kids or something, because I also saw it in Regina. I'm like, well, then what do? People will love it. Saskatchewan's going to support Saskatchewan. And then you see that two of them from the States, I'm like, oh, this doesn't make any sense, right? Like, I mean, at the end of the day, uh, my first call, if I was sitting there would have been Colter Wall. I'm just, yeah, absolutely. Like, it's a no brainer. And, you know, the funny thing is with Colter Wall, like I just assumed, okay, well, his dad's Bradwell, so he's
Starting point is 00:08:59 just running off of name brand recognition. And then you just listen to whatever the first thing. I think he did like a, just kind of a fun set at the G.W. Brewery and Sassington. Yeah, Great Western. And I listened to that. And I was like, holy shit.
Starting point is 00:09:15 Like that's okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I feel like maybe Brad Wallace should have been riding off cold. There's coattails. No shit. You know, not the other way around. Yeah. And he's just, he's so good.
Starting point is 00:09:24 Actually, that new, the peripheral, that new show on Amazon, they had a clip of one of his. in one of the first episodes. Well, and I'm a big Yellowstone guy, and they've had him in pretty much every second episode anyways. To me, who knows? Maybe the CFL couldn't afford them. Who knows?
Starting point is 00:09:42 The CDC... Get calling James. There's so much classic Saskatchewal stuff that you could have gone with. It's true. Every year, this is the Carly Ray Jepson. You're all over again. This is like black-eyed peas.
Starting point is 00:09:54 Maybe Shaniah Twain kind of okay, but they've just had shit lineups year after year. And I don't know why. I don't understand it, but let's move past it. The CBC spends more time asking for money than Zelensky. Here's a couple of the money breakdowns in this article, okay? $400 million for six months of COVID-19 border testing. 422 million to combat monkeypox outbreaks.
Starting point is 00:10:21 I didn't even realize we were doing it anyways. It says with over 1,400 reported cases across the country since the summer, the federal government is pledging $113 million this year, and 309 million next year to respond to the world. WHO has called the public health emergency of international concern. And then scroll down a little farther and it goes 42 million to help the CBC Radio Canada recover from the pandemic. Oh, wait, just on a side note. The CBC and Radio Canada received $1.2 billion in the federal funding in 2021, 2022.
Starting point is 00:10:53 Just throwing that in there, but they need help. They need more help. Yes. Our government made it illegal for people to do. anything other than watch TV and the state broadcasters still couldn't turn a profit. And not even that they couldn't turn a profit. They needed extra money to keep themselves from digging themselves further into a hole. And I think if I remember correctly, they gave out something like $39 million in raises and bonuses
Starting point is 00:11:18 last year. Like you suck so much that you got to ask for more money and you're going to give people bonuses. Get the fuck out of here already. Start running this like a regular ass company and grow up. you know uh with a couple extra sections geez we're on a little on on time right now isn't that weird um twos has got me doing a whiteboard hey like what would you want to do with this show like what are some things and i'm like i'm looking at this i'm going you know what i would i would love to take a fraction of that 42 million to uh to to allow twos and sean to do it in person have a studio set up with a third person who sits there and spitballs out the thing so we can yell at each other that's what i would like and that's a fraction in the 42 million to you to help bail out somebody to get another anyways. If you gave us 1% of that, we could have an absolutely phenomenal show. Actually, you know what, now that you mention it, though, like I'm working on the whiteboard
Starting point is 00:12:11 this week, you're working on the whiteboard this week. We're going to put our heads together and we're just looking at just throwing anything out there. What do we think would be awesome to do with this show in terms of production value or tweaking it or just whatever, you name it? And maybe there's a couple people listening that have a couple ideas. I guaranteed this listener group has a couple ideas. You know where to go.
Starting point is 00:12:35 Text me in the show notes. And we'll throw it on the whiteboard too and see where it all shakes out. We'll probably cross them all off because I've got the best ideas. But you guys, you're more than welcome to try anyway. Says the guy who puts this headline in here, okay? Miss Argentina becomes Mrs. Puerto Rico. That is, tell me, that's not what happened. Miss Argentina and Miss Puerto Rico have announced they tied the knot in a secret.
Starting point is 00:12:59 after claiming they've been in a private relationship for two years. I'm just, I'm like flabbergasted this is one of our headlines. But hey, fire away to is if you want to, you know, you seem to, what would you like to say? What would you like to say? I think it's nice to know that despite the fact that we live in this crazy culture of unattractive people with weird hair colors and intentionally unfashionable eyewear that lesbians can still be hot sometimes. Oh, come on. You're going to completely avoid that whole conversation. What do you want me to say?
Starting point is 00:13:38 What do you want me to say? Two very attractive women get married. That's what we're talking about on the Tuesday mashup. You know, I suggested to this motherfucker. I suggested to when we talk about Trudeau talking about just like absolute asinine things, talking about this and that. And it just goes, I don't think is that relevant. And it throws out Miss Argentina and Miss Puerto Rico.
Starting point is 00:13:57 I'm like, what do we turn here? Are we turned into the Kardashians? Is that what we're doing here? That's not how it played out. And this is, these were miss their respective country pageants, contestants. This is, this is kind of interesting how it all came together. But yeah, you wanted to talk about the Cupy strike and how Trudeau was taking a side in it and, and Doug Ford's imposing the non-withstanding clause.
Starting point is 00:14:20 They were just, they were, they were just all in Quebec at the grand opening or the grand whatever of the Moderna fact. We could talk about that. But no, we're going to talk about Argentina and Puerto Rico. Well, we've already talked. We talked about how that's coming forward, and we talked about how Calgary had the facility, and then they decided to pack up and leave because the government of Canada, which is Justin Trudeau, wasn't interested in working with them. But yeah, as far as that QPie stuff goes, I threw it out to you.
Starting point is 00:14:47 I said you play the clip instead of the full damn song, and we will talk about it. Do we have a deal? It wasn't that I didn't want to talk about it. Did we have a deal? It's that I wanted to negotiate. We are absolutely not going to talk about how stupid it is that the BC Teachers Federation, has enough money lying around to send them a million dollars for it. We are not going to talk about the 16 other times that Quebec has invoked the non-withstanding
Starting point is 00:15:11 clause that just gets met by silence from the federal government because they're scared to piss off fucking Quebec. We are definitely not going to talk about how it's glorious that somebody is finally standing up to these assholes and especially in a situation where they're complaining that people who are working 35 hours a week for 200 days a year are only making $40,000. in an hourly wait and at an hourly rate, that is pretty damn good money. We are not going to talk about any of that. We're just going to talk about the hot chicks.
Starting point is 00:15:43 Perfect. Bell fires only black radio host to promote diversity. Bell Media defends firing its only full-time black radio host saying, and I can't remember, is it, how do you say his name? Do you know how to say his name? Shoot. I feel like a moron here, but is it Jamil Giovanni? Like I know exactly who it is.
Starting point is 00:16:05 It's Jamil Giovanni. I might be pronouncing it wrong. I've read it a lot. I follow him on Twitter, but I've never heard him say his own name. I know. That's me too. Anyways, he showed disdain for the media giants.
Starting point is 00:16:19 Diversity initiatives were resistant and combative with management, aired anti-vaccination views and didn't get strong enough ratings. Giovanni sued Bell for wrongful dismissal after he was fired from its I-Heart radio network. in January, claiming that he was hired as a token visible minority, but fired when he didn't match liberal views white executives expected from a black man. Bell complained Giovanni had conservative members of parliament. You might remember this name from the podcast, Kathy Wagonthal, who opposed vaccine mandates
Starting point is 00:16:49 on his show question the efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines, and they said Giovanni failed to challenge the falseness of her assertions. The statement says, oh, the madness. Okay, first off, can you think of a less. relevant place that you could possibly have a visible minority in than radio. Okay. And then secondly, I just, I found it astounding that Bell went to the extreme lengths to go through, oh, he didn't buy into our declusity, diversity, inclusivity and whatever else, the die stuff.
Starting point is 00:17:25 And, and all of the, just everything that is just the far left critical race theory and exclusion. That's what it is. All the far left, just critical race theory stuff where nothing matters except for your skin. And he's like, well, that's not really my lived experience. They're like, yeah, but that doesn't really work for us. And if you're going to fire somebody for something that might be contentious, you just stick to numbers, right? You just say, look, you're not bringing in enough people to listen. And that's why we're getting rid of you.
Starting point is 00:17:57 And that's it. You just keep it simple and succinct. And they didn't. And now they're opening themselves out up to this giant. lawsuit and I don't know I'm not a I'm not a legal person at all maybe Viva Fry's had some ideas on this I haven't seen him do it but I think that they shot themselves in the foot yeah like immensely yeah they shot themselves in the hand like that guy who might or might not have been from Maple Creek that Quick Dick's dad knew
Starting point is 00:18:25 people will get what we're talking about if they have no idea on Thursday when all that comes out and and there's going to be a few people who were at the show that are like yeah yeah quick dick McDick wouldn't say where he was from, but that totally sounds like someone from Maple Creek. Yeah, Maple Creek. Fembot runs for Danish Parliament.
Starting point is 00:18:45 A party led by... I mean, geez Louise. Anyways, a party led by artificial intelligence is attempting to run for Danish government, and it is a sentence you'd expect to find in a sci-fi about some distant future which is bound to go well for humans. But
Starting point is 00:18:59 the synthetic party is a real thing, and it's hoping to field an AI candidate in Denmark's November general election. running on policies that have also been settled on using AI. At the head of the party is a chat bot named Leader Lars. I'd like to point out at the bottom of this article, it says they only have 12 signatures and they need 20,000. So I can assume they're not going to get there.
Starting point is 00:19:23 I would totally sign up for that. I think this is probably the best idea to come out of Denmark since the coins with holes in the middle. Like this is wonderful. Like just think about this. You can, he's not. not going to fuck off and go surfing. He's not going to just bail on work.
Starting point is 00:19:41 He's not going to run up stupid expenses on travel accounts. His carbon footprint's going to be next to nothing. So the leftists are going to love him for that. And you don't have to pay him a pension after he's done. I'm just speaking as though this AI is a man. I don't know. We'll see how often it changes. It's mine.
Starting point is 00:20:00 Maybe I'll have to change mine. But for the time being, you've got someone that you can work literally 24 and 365 and you don't even have to pay them. We should move our entire public sector to artificial intelligence. And you know what? If they make slightly unoptimized decisions here and there in terms of asset allocation, things like that, you're not going to bribe them. What are you going to offer them?
Starting point is 00:20:23 Like, hey man, if you open it up another factory in Quebec, we're going to give you more RAM? No. This is the perfect political leader. Until somebody sitting in his mom's basement eating cheat. hacks into said AI and really causes a world of hurt. Honestly, you just don't give them access to the football. If they can't just, there has to be a human in charge of sending nukes. Everything else, go for it.
Starting point is 00:20:51 If you're smart enough to hack into the Danish government's artificial intelligence prime minister and get him to send you a bag of Cheetos, you should get all the Cheetos. I mean, it can't get much worse than what we've just been going through. like i mean jeez honestly like if we took that same ai and ran it off the fucking um CPU from an Atari we would be better off than where we're at right now Prime minister's wife talks to princess about how hard life is for regular people there's not even a joke in there that's literally what happened they sat around the pool they sat around their own pool
Starting point is 00:21:37 Talking about how hard life is for regular people and how important it is for them to have maternity leave. And then they were reminiscing about the time when they first met at some fashion show in Toronto. And you're like, yeah, this is totally relatable. I can really hear myself. I could see myself relating to this. And you know what? If you are at home somewhere and you're thinking, I want to have this kind of life for myself, come out work rigs with us. So it was Megan Markle as a podcast.
Starting point is 00:22:07 right you know the Duchess of Sussex and she interviewed Trudeau's wife and they they had a little girlie talk about like trying to be regular human beings and whatever else and you're like these people are the farthest thing from regular human beings as you're ever going to get here is something well I will the only thing they really have in common with each other is that they both know what it's like to be with the British man here's what I will say about two things about the article though okay one is they talked about maternity leave in the United States States and I got I got tons of friends in the United States who have young kids and I think compared to Canada like Canada is if you're going to have kids Canada is amazing for allowing a woman to stay away from work be home with the kids I think what they said in the article I haven't listened to I'm going to be honest I got like zero want to go listen to Megan Markle's podcast I had the exact same crisis I was like I'd be much better prepared for the mashup if I listened to this but I might just commit suicide halfway through so maybe I won't But here's the one that, here's the quote that I read and I was like, okay, I'm going to write this down.
Starting point is 00:23:16 He said, this was Trudeau's wife, I believe, saying women across this planet are still the nucleus of the family. They still carry most of the load for their housework, contributing to the family's well-being and most decisions concerning the kids. I'm like, yeah, and that's a good thing. She has two maids. That's a good thing. This is coming from a woman who has two maids and tried to get a personal secretary on the government dime to help. her organize her day. Yeah, this is, I mean, it, I mean, we got Puerto Rico and, and then we got this one.
Starting point is 00:23:50 And I'm just like, oh, man. Anyways, anyways, I'm coming back to the, anyways, it's Tuesday is having, he's, he's mad at me. So he's throwing me with some curve balls this week, folks. But it doesn't matter how many curve balls he throws. Doesn't matter how many curve balls he throws. We're going to play the song, okay? We're going to play the song for the people because. they want it.
Starting point is 00:24:10 Do you know what? Do you know how to do zero in Roman numerals? Gover. No, what? Zero. Do you know how to do zero in Roman numerals? Zero? No.
Starting point is 00:24:21 Zero hadn't been invented yet when no Roman numerals had, so there's no way to express it in Roman numerals. Okay. Well, here's a history lesson from Tuesday. And another strike. Okay. Well, fair enough. I only need one pitch and it goes over the wall anyways, too.
Starting point is 00:24:37 So just put it over the plate already, would you? Governor General declares war on money. Man. Like, I feel like we've talked, you know, you get some recurring themes here in Canada. This one is another one. But this is, we keep getting more details about it, though. True, true. Governor General Mary Simon's week-long trip to the Middle East earlier this year,
Starting point is 00:24:59 the target of government expenses review cost, da-da-da-da-da-Canadian taxpayers more than $1.3 fucking million. $1.3 million for a week long trip. For a week long trip. Oh my God. Like. Yeah. Well, I mean, to be fair, 50,000 of it was to go towards a leg of the trip that they canceled.
Starting point is 00:25:23 And then they just couldn't get all the money back. They put $50,000 worth of deposits down for a leg of the trip. They didn't even go on. You know, I think it's Tom Corski. You know, Blacklocks. Big fan. I think he says to me in tomorrow's podcast, something along the lines, oh, this has been going on for a long time.
Starting point is 00:25:46 When we talk about, like, you know, just government stupidity and where the money goes, and he talks about pandemic spending and how, you know, some friends of friends just got, like, one-way government contracts and stuff like that. I read that and I go, man, wouldn't you, like, how corrupt do you got to be to lose $50,000 and not get it back? Like, I mean, I didn't drop in the bucket in a $1.3 million week-long trip. Like, think about the most expensive vacation you've ever been on.
Starting point is 00:26:15 And that's not even the opportunity cost of wages lost, but just cash out of hand. Hey, let's just send her to an all-inclusive in Mexico for a week next time. No shit. Honestly. Wife is, I've been trying to convince the wife. Let's just go to an all-inclusive. Can we go to an all-inclusive? We can't afford an all-inclusive.
Starting point is 00:26:36 I'm like, the government is spending $1.3 billion or million for a week-long trip. We can afford the like $1,700. Anyways, fuck, fuck me. I agree. Let's send them all to Mexico for a week, get it out of the system, save us all a boatload of money, fund the Tuesday mashup along with like 80 other really cool things and just carry on with life. Canada would be better for it. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:26:58 Liberals pass legislation to make universities more expensive. Ottawa plans to make permanent. its pandemic era pause on student loan interest in an effort to reduce some of the current financial pressures on young Canadians as the cost of living rises. As part of its fall, fiscal updated tabled Thursday, the federal government outlined plans to permanently eliminate interest in all federal student loans and apprentice loans, including loans currently being repaid. Yeah, as somebody who spent a lot of money on his education, this pisses me off.
Starting point is 00:27:33 as someone whose tax money goes towards this shit this pisses me off as someone who thinks that universities are kind of a shithole place that throw around bad ideas like this pisses you off tennis balls and you've got tennis rackets
Starting point is 00:27:48 and there's a small net in between that isn't really impeding it back and forth at all this pisses me off yeah so here's the thing is that everything every time a government steps in to artificially make something less expensive to the to the person going, they foot the bill from the taxpayer.
Starting point is 00:28:11 And then because the person is out of pocket less money, they're able to spend more money out of pocket. And so basically just all of the back end subsidies just get absorbed into bureaucracy at these institutions without any net savings to the students. Yeah I just We're in a financial Well of like
Starting point is 00:28:41 You know what? I can Deportions of depth Yep And that chatbot From Denmark would not do this I would like to ask the chatbot If he would do this
Starting point is 00:28:51 You know Well it was programmed to be It was supposed to have some fringe Far Left ideologies from the 70s Yeah Which I mean Fringe far left ideologies from the 70s Was like
Starting point is 00:29:03 Probably people should only work 80 hours a week, but I don't know, we'll see. I just, any time, you know, you start doing things like this, we're like, we're just going to give everybody universal-based income. We're going to just give everything for free and, you know, and just see how that goes. You know, I'm sure it'll be great. I'm sure it'll be just groovy. Okay, here's your happy news for the week.
Starting point is 00:29:28 Florida man with power of flight saves a woman from sinking car. Piquette was recording his flight near homestead when he saw the woman clinging onto her car for dear life. He quickly landed and ran to her aid and then sought help from a resident nearby who could see, who can be seen in the video using ropes to pull the woman to safety. Piquette said he's blessed to have been paragliding that day because his aerial view of the wreck likely saved her life. You hadn't made that point clear yet until the very end? And it probably, people were like, wait, wait, wait. So like, is this a radiation thing or, you know, some kind of.
Starting point is 00:30:02 kind of, yeah, is maybe an Ironman suit? What's the deal here? And then, yeah, so to be clear, he was paragliding. I was just having some fun with it because he always hear about Florida man. And I'm like, what if Florida man had superpowers? This is it right here. He can fly. Sort of being paragliding.
Starting point is 00:30:20 I mean, pretty cool. He's in the area, though, too. Like, there's a woman essentially frowning, clinging to life. And he's just like in a sinking car. And he's just floating around over top, just like. Like Superman, the cartoons we used to watch when we were kids. And then he just kind of just does the arm thing and swoops down and goes in and savor. Like just picture that you are a woman who is clinging to a sinking car and you're just looking around at a muddy death.
Starting point is 00:30:49 Because that canal wasn't exactly pristine water either. These were not the Roman aqueducts. This is a fucking swamp. There's probably, it was probably full of gators or crocodiles. I'm not sure which one. Probably both in Florida. you know, or maybe some of those albino pythons that have wrecked the wetlands there. But anyways, you're looking at certain death.
Starting point is 00:31:07 And all of a sudden, somebody literally, they're not driving by. You know, they're not out for a fucking stroll. Someone literally drops out of the sky to save your life. How cool would that be? Pretty freaking cool. Anyways, I thought that was well done on the last one. You know, you had a couple of questionables, although I did like... Questionables.
Starting point is 00:31:29 I did like... the bot. I did like the bot. Miss Argentina and Mrs. Puerto Rico? That, that, that, that, we should have let, we, we should start every episode with that. And just kind of just touch base on where they're at and, and how they're enjoying life, you know, whether, whether they were in Mexico, enjoying a pool, they were scantily clad, it was a great article. Well, Bolivia might be a great place to go.
Starting point is 00:31:54 You know, I mean, it's right in between the two of them. Oh, man. Well, week 29, big fella, in the books. Another week come and gone. We were just joking, you know, like before we started, it wasn't that long ago. We just literally bumped into each other. Got to be on stage for the first time with QDM. It was a fun weekend.
Starting point is 00:32:18 And once again, I do appreciate everybody coming. Yes, that meant a lot. If you're like, man, I would have loved to have gotten there, but I'm living in Ontario. It's called Check out our show sponsor. pick up, move from the the crazy Ontario landscape, come to Alberta where it's the land of the rich and plenty, come work for Rohan rig services,
Starting point is 00:32:41 and then you won't miss any shows. That's all I'm saying. You know, we always talk about Ontario, but we never talk about BC. I ended up out Lloyd because I lived under the orange banner of never getting ahead in your life in Saskatchewan. And there was so many of us that just like,
Starting point is 00:32:59 well, I mean, inside of that or starved to death. So, I mean, I guess we're going to give this thing a try. And I was like, okay, well, I'll just, I'll just work there until they fire me and then move back to Saskatoon. And then, you know, go 20 years later, you're like, man, these guys are dumb. But, but I mean, now is it, right? You're right. When you're stuck in an area where you just can't seem to get ahead, like, you know, working three different jobs, making jack squat at all of them combined. And you're like, okay, well, you know what, I just, I just want to go somewhere where people value some hard work, some industriousness, and a desire to actually make something to yourself,
Starting point is 00:33:33 this is the way to go, and Rohan's a place that you can do it. 100%. Well said. Thanks again, Toos. We're going to catch up with you next week. And yeah, that'll wrap it up for 29. 29. Yes. All right. Always a pleasure, buddy. It was good seeing you the other day. Yeah, you as well. Okay. Bye.
