                                         Get to know us.

                                         It's the documentary series that started with
                                         
    
                                         It was like a group of
                                         
                                         7 month old fetuses
                                         
                                         No just kidding, it started with 7 year old kids
                                         
                                         They're just like interviewing bellies
                                         
                                         It's the most boring of the series
                                         
                                         Some of the bellies are wearing headphones
                                         
                                         And then it
                                         
                                         Yeah, it follows this group of people every seven years
                                         
    
                                         they go back and kind of analyze what has happened in their life i can't where are they now are they
                                         
                                         49 up or something like they're pretty far along like it's been going on for a long time it's like
                                         
                                         the same people different it's a series every time they update it every seven years yeah yeah
                                         
                                         it's the same company making the same film with the same people, but it's every seven years. Are there seven people?
                                         
                                         I think so.
                                         
                                         Maybe.
                                         
                                         I don't know that much about it.
                                         
                                         And they should just do like a battle royal one time.
                                         
    
                                         Well, that's what's going to happen at 56.
                                         
                                         They'll somehow find their lives leading to an island and then suddenly they're just left there.
                                         
                                         And they're like, who will be the... Then there's just seven people left.
                                         
                                         I don't know.
                                         
                                         They all get seven weapons.

                                         Let's give an update for the listener.
                                         
                                         We live in Vancouver, home of the 2010 Olympic Games.
                                         
    
                                         Last night was the opening ceremonies, and this morning there was a mini riot down there.
                                         
                                         The Kaiser Chiefs were correct.
                                         
                                         Their prediction was right on.
                                         
                                         What was their prediction?
                                         
                                         They had a song called I Predict the Riot.
                                         
                                         So many of us saw this, the show of like ungotten references by one of us.
                                         
                                         It was an Olympic.
                                         
                                         But yeah, there was the first in what I'm sure will be a series.
                                         
    
                                         We'll do a seven up of riots.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Because I know it's going to happen again seven days from now
                                         
                                         and another seven days from then.
                                         
                                         Sure, yeah.
                                         
                                         It's just going to become habit for the city
                                         
                                         and they're just going to keep rioting even after the Olympics are over.
                                         
                                         Yeah, everybody just takes the windows out of their front.
                                         
    
                                         Like, eh, whatever.
                                         
                                         If we lose a couple mannequins, we're trying to win a deal.
                                         
                                         But yeah, so there was like some windows smashed, and you know.
                                         
                                         But our point is Kevin is pro-riot.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         No!
                                         
                                         We keep putting words in his mouth.
                                         
                                         I'm pro-words in my mouth.
                                         
    
                                         It's, I don't know.
                                         
                                         There's certain, there's elements, the reason for the riots I'm okay with, i.e.
                                         
                                         dissenting to the Olympics, but then like, I don't know.
                                         
                                         I feel like it paints the dissent in a bad light because it just can be portrayed so
                                         
                                         easily by the media as hooliganism.
                                         
                                         This is suddenly turning not funny whatsoever. No, but it's, because it just can be portrayed so easily by the media as hooliganism. This is suddenly turning not funny whatsoever.
                                         
                                         No, but it's...
                                         
                                         Because it just happened. The first one
                                         
    
                                         that I'm sure it won't be the last one
                                         
                                         happened this morning and there was, you know,
                                         
                                         violence and some people were arrested.
                                         
                                         Nothing... Nobody was killed.
                                         
                                         No, not even close.
                                         
                                         All those...
                                         
                                         Yeah, apparently a guy got jumped by
                                         
                                         a couple of the protesters.
                                         
    
                                         They called themselves protesters, but they were breaking windows and covering their faces with masks.
                                         
                                         So they're like con-testers.
                                         
                                         But apparently some guy was like, hey, go home, jerks.
                                         
                                         Like just some guy on the street and then a couple of protesters started beating him up.
                                         
                                         Really?
                                         
                                         Oh, see, I don't like that.
                                         
                                         Yeah, they say that's going too far.
                                         
                                         Like, who cares?
                                         
    
                                         Like, I don't know.
                                         
                                         I'm okay.
                                         
                                         I don't know.
                                         
                                         Go home, jerks. I don't know what. Yeah, they say that's going too far. Like, who cares? Like, I don't know. I'm okay. I don't know. I can't say I'm a pro at Smash.
                                         
                                         I don't know what he said.
                                         
                                         Hey, guys.
                                         
                                         Come on, guys.
                                         
                                         Just be real for a moment.
                                         
    
                                         Ease up.
                                         
                                         Let's all sit down here on my crate and let's talk this out.
                                         
                                         Let's have a little jam sesh with Terry.
                                         
                                         With Terry.
                                         
                                         With Terry.
                                         
                                         So, are you going to participate at all in the Olympics?
                                         
                                         No, not really.
                                         
                                         I don't know.
                                         
    
                                         There's just everything.
                                         
                                         I work downtown, so that feels like participation enough because there's so many people.
                                         
                                         It's so busy.
                                         
                                         Lots of Norwegians.
                                         
                                         Oh, my God.
                                         
                                         I saw the best Russian guy yesterday.
                                         
                                         And this is the only time of year when you feel okay identifying people by their country of origin.
                                         
                                         Because randomly, you can't just be like, I saw a Russian guy.
                                         
    
                                         And you're like, how do you know he's Russian?
                                         
                                         This guy was wearing a tracksuit that said russia on his back and so he was like he was he had like this like blondish gray like feathered e like a
                                         
                                         mullet um and uh and he was like nine feet he basically looked like dolph lundgren basically
                                         
                                         and he was huge and he was so angry and he's by himself and then like a pack of ukrainians
                                         
                                         um uh found him.
                                         
                                         No, they all just started talking to one another,
                                         
                                         but really low, and they all seemed really angry,
                                         
                                         but maybe...
                                         
    
                                         They were talking about...
                                         
                                         There was a protest happening up front,
                                         
                                         so maybe that was it.
                                         
                                         Well, speaking of Dolph Lundgren,
                                         
                                         we got sent an amazing clip by a listener, Bumper.
                                         
                                         Dolph Lundgren singing at an awards show,
                                         
                                         singing the Elvis song.
                                         
                                         What is that song? I didn't see it it's a little more action a little less conversation yeah yeah he sings
                                         
    
                                         the song Elvis wrote for Ocean's Eleven Universal Soldier
                                         
                                         he comes out uh and I think it's obviously it's in some country where they would approve of Delphalungrid singing this song.
                                         
                                         Was it Sweden?
                                         
                                         I think he's Swedish.
                                         
                                         I thought he was Russian.
                                         
                                         No.
                                         
                                         Oh, wow.
                                         
                                         That's really...
                                         
    
                                         He might be Danish.
                                         
                                         My illusions are being dissed.
                                         
                                         Used?
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         He's whatever country accepts him the most.
                                         
                                         But anyways, it's a lavish song and dance number.
                                         
                                         And then he sits down at the drum set and does a big drum solo.
                                         
                                         He drums?
                                         
    
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         What is he, Dana Carvey?
                                         
                                         He's wearing a tuxedo the whole time and he's playing to the camera.
                                         
                                         Like whenever he says like a little more action, he points at the camera.
                                         
                                         It was great.

                                         They appreciate things

                                         They all clap along to every song
                                         
                                         They probably invented those thunder sticks The sincerest form of They all learn chants. They all clap along to every song.
                                         
                                         They probably invented those thunder sticks.
                                         
                                         The sincerest form of approval is balloon.

                                         That's like the standing ovation of Europe.
                                         
    
                                         They all just inflate balloons instead of lighters.
                                         
                                         They're like trying to knock them.
                                         
                                         There's so many of them they just get away.
                                         
                                         It's deafening.
                                         
                                         The number of balloons flying off in every direction.
                                         
                                         Speaking of foofarai,

                                         And then there's a couple countries where there's...
                                         
                                         But Greece starts and the host country always ends.
                                         
                                         Oh, why is Greece...

                                         That and the Greek salad.

                                         They're all just eating.
                                         
                                         Everybody has to come out eating their national dish.
                                         
                                         A big brick of feta cheese.
                                         
                                         They're like, I'm Greek and I actually don't like feta cheese.
                                         
    
                                         This is the worst tradition.
                                         
                                         I have to work out tomorrow.
                                         
                                         They put on a black mask and smash a bay window.
                                         
                                         I have feta cheese.
                                         
                                         I have to ski down a mountain tomorrow.
                                         
                                         I feel terrible.
                                         
                                         I drank too much of the feta cheese drink.
                                         
                                         Before any of those things,
                                         
    
                                         it started with a video of a guy snowboarding down a hill.
                                         
                                         Oh, right, right, right.
                                         
                                         That's like memento.
                                         
                                         We're working backwards.
                                         
                                         And then you don't remember any of it?
                                         
                                         And then you just shoot yourself in the eye.
                                         
                                         And then, yeah, he comes.
                                         
                                         It's one of those things that you've seen like a million times where it's a video and then the door swings open.
                                         
    
                                         And the guy's a little late getting out.
                                         
                                         It's supposed to be seamless, but he snowboards into the stadium off a ramp like two seconds too late.
                                         
                                         Yeah, it was too late.
                                         
                                         It was definitely off cue. And then he snowboarded through an Olympic rings onto a snow ramp into the arena.

                                         I don't know who it was.
                                         
                                         Was it anybody?
                                         
                                         It wasn't.
                                         
                                         We were having dinner last week and they had those.
                                         
                                         The campaign was Believe, right?
                                         
                                         And it was Donald Sutherland with all the kids. You've seen the commercials no i'm pretty sure they've stopped promoting
                                         
                                         the olympics now that we're one day in but they had donald sutherland was the voice of the olympics
                                         
                                         of the kids and i'd be like what i don't believe a child could be done that's all
                                         
    
                                         at one point at the end, he goes,
                                         
                                         do you believe? And then he tries
                                         
                                         to smile, but I think it's so foreign
                                         
                                         to Donald Sutherland to

                                         it just looks like he's grimacing, like

                                         ceremonies. Old Man Winter,
                                         
                                         I think, was his character he was playing.

                                         I didn't understand the fake tattoos.

                                         What percentage of old Celtic, like old-timey Celtic people had tattoos?
                                         
    
                                         Well, the ones that teamed up with the Maoris to fight off the invasion.
                                         
                                         They all got tattoos.

                                         To remember their time together.

                                         I'm married forever.
                                         
                                         That's when they invented barbed wire.
                                         
                                         Yeah.

                                         That's right.
                                         
                                         So there was that.
                                         
                                         And then...
                                         
                                         Sarah McLachlan sang a song.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Asked you to donate to the SBC.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
    
                                         She brought some crippled animals.
                                         
                                         Out of the back of her piano it opened and then on wires some crippled animals.
                                         
                                         Out of the back of her piano it opened and then on wires
                                         
                                         came crippled animals floating out of it.
                                         
                                         Wearing skis.
                                         
                                         Wearing skis and cups.
                                         
                                         We have to incorporate the Olympics.
                                         
                                         The little Canada batuks and scarves.
                                         
    
                                         Little mitts, those red mitts the animals
                                         
                                         cover up their mangled paws.
                                         
                                         Okay, and that happened.
                                         
                                         That happened. And that was not bad.
                                         
                                         That was appropriate for the theme.
                                         
                                         Then a couple speeches, maybe.
                                         
                                         Worst, horrible speeches.
                                         
                                         And then Shane Koizen, local slam poet.
                                         
    
                                         He's really good.
                                         
                                         Poet.
                                         
                                         Poet.
                                         
                                         There's no masculine or feminine. But I didn't know he was a part of it. And I was shocked and surprised. And it was really good. Poet. Poet. There's no masculine or feminine.
                                         
                                         But I didn't know he was a part of it, and I was shocked and surprised, and it was really good, and he got, like, big audience reaction and stuff.
                                         
                                         Which, I imagine following, like, you know, high wire antics, crazy 3D effects.
                                         
                                         A giant bear.
                                         
                                         Yeah, a giant polar bear. A giant bear made of LEDs and then the whales that went...
                                         
    
                                         That swam on the floor or whatever?
                                         
                                         Yeah, and spat up.
                                         
                                         People at home, if you want, you can watch along on ctv.ca.
                                         
                                         Just fast forward.
                                         
                                         Rewind and fast forward back and then go back again and forward.
                                         
                                         He just went up and it was just him on a platform doing his thing.
                                         
                                         And he did really, really well.
                                         
                                         So that, I was over the moon that that went so well.
                                         
    
                                         And then I can't remember what followed.
                                         
                                         Was it Katie Lang?
                                         
                                         Yeah, that was really good.
                                         
                                         She sang the...
                                         
                                         Hallelujah.
                                         
                                         Oh, she killed it.
                                         
                                         She was really good.
                                         
                                         She was good.
                                         
    
                                         And she wasn't lip syncing?
                                         
                                         No, she sang.
                                         
                                         You're sure she wasn't? No, she brought it. I remember the microphone was a mile away from her face, it she was really good she was good lip syncing no she's saying sure she wasn't no she brought it like the microphone was like a mile away but she was like like a silent
                                         
                                         she knows what she's doing yeah she can belt it out all right she belts it out to the rafters
                                         
                                         she's great and then i think that's when they brought in the torch am i missing a chunk uh
                                         
                                         maybe i think a lot of it can be uh summed up with wire work we're gonna be like for 40 for
                                         
                                         40 million dollars there could have been a lot more interpretive dance.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
    
                                         So all of it is interpretive dance.
                                         
                                         God.
                                         
                                         A lot of it was ponchos.
                                         
                                         Yeah, there were a lot of ponchos, a lot of cardboard drums.
                                         
                                         A lot of plastic lighter lights.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         I just, yeah, I knew that.
                                         
                                         That's the kind of stuff that my mom I know would eat up with a spoon,
                                         
    
                                         but I'm watching them just like, more interpretive dance.
                                         
                                         And the way the announcers have to tell you what's happening all the time.
                                         
                                         Like, this is a mountain rising out of the ground, symbolizing the rugged wilderness of Canada.
                                         
                                         I was watching.
                                         
                                         Like, just incidentally flipped over after the Canadian one was done.
                                         
                                         They were replaying it an hour later on NBC.
                                         
                                         it an hour later on NBC.
                                         
                                         And one of the commentators' comments when New Zealand came out,
                                         
    
                                         when their team came out, was,
                                         
                                         that's where a lot of the effects in Avatar were done.
                                         
                                         Thanks, New Zealand.
                                         
                                         He was just Googling frantically.
                                         
                                         I need something about New Zealand.
                                         
                                         Once I shared a dorm room
                                         
                                         in college with a New Zealand guy
                                         
                                         at the end of our tenure. He told me he was
                                         
    
                                         Australian. Don't believe him.
                                         
                                         A lot of
                                         
                                         our viewers

                                         And the weird thing about
                                         
                                         the Olympics is that, or the

                                         new zealand yeah correct um a lot of people mispronounce that that's right um but yeah the
                                         
                                         i actually put in when i was still working on the tv show i put on uh to be a dancer
                                         
                                         because they were asking for volunteer dancers so i put in to be a dancer. And I got accepted, but the hours for it were so crazy.
                                         
                                         Like, you had to go every Saturday and Sunday.
                                         
                                         And it was, like, 10-hour days.
                                         
    
                                         And it's all free.
                                         
                                         There were a few different kinds of dancers.
                                         
                                         But my favorite were just the people standing as the countries were coming in.
                                         
                                         That's probably who I would have been.
                                         
                                         Just grooving for three hours.
                                         
                                         Just feeling the flow of each country.
                                         
                                         Germany's here.
                                         
                                         I'm going to do a robot.
                                         
    
                                         They'll appreciate this.
                                         
                                         Yeah, sure.
                                         
                                         Because that's where robots come from.
                                         
                                         Yeah, exactly.
                                         
                                         Greeks are here.
                                         
                                         I'm going to do a robot eating feta cheese.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         I'm sorry.
                                         
    
                                         I'm sorry, all the Greek listeners.
                                         
                                         I honestly do not know any more about your country. Greeks are here. I'm going to do a robot eating feta cheese. Yeah. I'm sorry. I'm sorry, all the Greek listeners. Doing another male robot.
                                         
                                         I honestly do not know any more about your country.
                                         
                                         Olympics and cheese.
                                         
                                         I'm going to do a robot inventing democracy.
                                         
                                         And then the big cauldron came out.
                                         
                                         Yeah, well, there was a big every day in the paper
                                         
                                         leading up to the opening ceremonies.
                                         
    
                                         Who's going to light the torch?
                                         
                                         It's probably going to be Wayne Gretzky.
                                         
                                         It might be Terry Fox's mom.
                                         
                                         And it might be...
                                         
                                         Who was the other one?
                                         
                                         Oh.
                                         
                                         Elvis Stoico.
                                         
                                         To spark the flame with his blades
                                         
    
                                         and triple axes over it.
                                         
                                         That would have been showmanship.
                                         
                                         Rick Hansen.
                                         
                                         I don't know who he was.
                                         
                                         Rick Hansen, yeah.
                                         
                                         Trevor Linden.
                                         
                                         He had my vote.
                                         
                                         Rick Hansen had my vote.
                                         
    
                                         But it was Rick Hansen, Wayne Gretzky.
                                         
                                         No, no.
                                         
                                         Rick Hansen wasn't one of the four.
                                         
                                         Rick Hansen handed it off.
                                         
                                         Oh, he came in, handed it off to Nancy.
                                         
                                         But he hung out there.
                                         
                                         Yeah, he hung out there.
                                         
                                         But he was like a potential, wasn't he?
                                         
    
                                         I thought that was like the mystery is that they all came out and they all were standing there.
                                         
                                         It's like, who's going to do it?
                                         
                                         I think what was supposed to happen was they were all four supposed to, there were supposed to be four spikes came out.
                                         
                                         Or were there supposed to be five?
                                         
                                         Were there five Torchbearers?
                                         
                                         If you count Rick Hansen.
                                         
                                         So there's Rick Hansen, Nancy Green.
                                         
                                         Yep, Senator Nancy Green-Rayne.
                                         
    
                                         Wayne Gretzky.
                                         
                                         Steve Nash.
                                         
                                         Steve Nash.
                                         
                                         And Katrina Lamedone.
                                         
                                         Oh, Katrina Lamedone, that's right.
                                         
                                         The donor.
                                         
                                         And then who brought out the...
                                         
                                         The boner donor.
                                         
    
                                         She's not bad.

                                         That's a t-shirt.

                                         But it didn't

                                         wasn't coming out of the ground.

                                         Olympic reporter guy
                                         
                                         What's the American NBC guy?
                                         
                                         Is his name also Brian Williams?
                                         
                                         That's what I thought when you first said that.
                                         
                                         Oh, Brian Williams.
                                         
                                         Yeah, he's the nighttime.
                                         
                                         Yeah, yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                         He's like the news anchor.
                                         
    
                                         So yeah, we have the perennial Olympic host in Canada.
                                         
                                         Brian Williams.
                                         
                                         That sounds nothing like it.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Anyways, he was stalling for time. And then he said, ridiculously, he was like,
                                         
                                         I wonder if Gretzky's going to run the torch all the way down to the waterfront.
                                         
                                         It's like about, it was, the route they took was about a mile long.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
    
                                         So he was going to just run in the pouring rain through crowds of people.
                                         
                                         Waving the torch in front of him, get away, get away.
                                         
                                         I'm the great one at burning your ass.
                                         
                                         Well, he had Marty McSorley there to protect him.
                                         
                                         That's a good hockey joke.
                                         
                                         Really good hockey joke.
                                         
                                         So yeah, they lit the torch inside.
                                         
                                         And then Wayne Gretzky gets in the back of a Chevy truck.
                                         
    
                                         And they drive through Vancouver with apparently no security.
                                         
                                         No, and people running alongside the truck like screaming and yeah you could tell he was so embarrassed he was kind of
                                         
                                         like yeah yeah anyway because people you're just like they're like he kind of looked terrified to
                                         
                                         me yeah that's that's well like it was jfks that was my whole theesque. That was my whole...
                                         
                                         The whole time I was thinking something,
                                         
                                         some disgruntled somebody is going to throw something and this is going to be the worst.
                                         
                                         But it didn't turn out that way.
                                         
                                         Throw him into a bay window.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         That's what I thought.
                                         
                                         Well, I thought, because that's what exactly...
                                         
                                         I was watching it on the streaming off the internet
                                         
                                         and right as they were having that malfunction and it started to come up
                                         
                                         In BC Place
                                         
                                         It was at BC Place right? Yeah yeah yeah
                                         
                                         As soon as it started coming up it cut out and it just stopped playing on CTV
                                         
    
                                         I was like what? Right before the money shot
                                         
                                         And then we ran down to like a local bar
                                         
                                         And by that point Gretzky was
                                         
                                         In the back of the truck so I was like oh man the whole thing
                                         
                                         Totally fucked up and they couldn't light the torch
                                         
                                         Now they're just like sending him to like their backup torch

                                         we bought these hydraulics
                                         
    
                                         here
                                         
                                         I think they're still
                                         
                                         under warranty
                                         
                                         we don't have the receipt.
                                         
                                         I just cut the keys.
                                         
                                         But part of it is him waiting for 20 minutes to talk to somebody.
                                         
                                         I was like, but these are the screws I bought last time.
                                         
                                         He goes, just try these screws.
                                         
    
                                         I swear.
                                         
                                         I'm going to make you come over and look at toilets with me.
                                         
                                         And you're just like, talk to Gretzky.
                                         
                                         Toilets aren't my department.
                                         
                                         Oh, I'm not buying one.
                                         
                                         I just want you to look at them with me.
                                         
                                         But then I watched it.
                                         
                                         I watched the American Feed as well later.
                                         
    
                                         And they cut out that whole ride.
                                         
                                         They went to commercial and suddenly he's running up to the outdoor torch.
                                         
                                         The ride was more, I think, they just felt.
                                         
                                         Because it didn't sound to me like anybody in the booth knew that that was going to happen.
                                         
                                         That they were going to film this entire procession through the streets it didn't
                                         
                                         seem like the announcers knew that that was the plan i didn't see it with announcers yeah so it's
                                         
                                         just like uh anyways it was really weird and i was like why are they putting the this guy at so much personal risk yeah you know
                                         
                                         like they surely there could have been some rig that they set up so that he wouldn't have had to
                                         
    
                                         sit in the back of an open truck maybe like have some like instead of under lighting they just have
                                         
                                         the slow release of like a mace that comes out like a little mace cloud that creates like a
                                         
                                         perimeter some people run up to him they they're like, it hurts so much.
                                         
                                         I love you, Wayne.
                                         
                                         Maybe a Popemobile.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         That would be the best.
                                         
                                         Well, there was a part where he...
                                         
    
                                         With a little chimney for the torch.
                                         
                                         He can't be there in the torch, in the vacuum.
                                         
                                         It's just slowly getting hotter and hotter.
                                         
                                         He's like, ah.
                                         
                                         That was my favorite part, though,
                                         
                                         was when, I guess, when you go in and out of BC Place,
                                         
                                         you have to walk through.
                                         
                                         There's like doors that the whole roof is held up by air.
                                         
    
                                         So you have to walk through this like decompression chamber.
                                         
                                         So he was standing in it with the torch.
                                         
                                         Waiting.
                                         
                                         Yeah, waiting.
                                         
                                         It was like if the torch had to go up an elevator or something to be passed off to someone else.
                                         
                                         He's like, I'm Wayne Gretzky holding a torch in the decompression chamber.
                                         
                                         Oh, he had to get like sprayed down because he was contaminated.
                                         
                                         He lost.
                                         
    
                                         See all these people in white suits?
                                         
                                         Don't touch him!
                                         
                                         So that was my favorite part.
                                         
                                         Last night, I was at Yuck Yucks, the local comedy club, performing for...
                                         
                                         Official comedy club of the 2010 games.
                                         
                                         Yeah, as long as there's no fee for that.
                                         
                                         Opening night of the Olympics.
                                         
                                         And I said yes to this gig because I'm afraid if I ever say no to a gig, I won't.
                                         
    
                                         Another one will never come along.
                                         
                                         Fair enough. And I'm there again tonight ever say no to a gig another one will never come along fair enough
                                         
                                         and I'm there again tonight, it's Saturday
                                         
                                         if anyone wants to go back in time
                                         
                                         and see me
                                         
                                         so I
                                         
                                         yeah, the first show
                                         
                                         there were 21 people in the audience
                                         
    
                                         but a good 21 people
                                         
                                         in a club that seats 200
                                         
                                         yeah
                                         
                                         the tradition at this particular Yuck Yucks club, not necessarily all of them, is that they play Black Betty.
                                         
                                         Whose thing's that?
                                         
                                         I don't even know.
                                         
                                         It's the...
                                         
                                         Golden Earring.
                                         
    
                                         But it's the Ram-a-Jam-a-Lam.
                                         
                                         It's Ed Murray.
                                         
                                         Yeah, Ed Murray.
                                         
                                         Oh, Black Betty, blam-a-lam, just got me high, blam-a-lam.
                                         
                                         I'm not dead yet.
                                         
                                         So they play that at the beginning of the show.
                                         
                                         Usually they blast it so that people who are carrying on kind of get the hint,
                                         
                                         like, you will be overwhelmed by the sound system, so shut up.
                                         
    
                                         The show's about to start, and you wrote me a text message.
                                         
                                         I wrote a text message, which phil hanley was there it
                                         
                                         was his observation he said 21 people black betty at full volume he's getting it blasted
                                         
                                         ah we're already quiet i'm just reading books close the books and then uh after the uh after
                                         
                                         my part of the show i went upstairs and watched uh and watched Wayne Gretzky running through the streets.
                                         
                                         It was in the hotel lobby.
                                         
                                         It was downtown.
                                         
                                         People in the hotel were getting excited.
                                         
    
                                         They were like, he's going to run by here.
                                         
                                         Everyone started running outside.
                                         
                                         You clearly saw him pass the street.
                                         
                                         He was not going to turn down Berard.
                                         
                                         They should have done like saddam
                                         
                                         like doppelgangers spreading out through the city i'll look like wayne all these ways basically
                                         
                                         like maybe like anne marie with like a wig if they would just keep the deception going or it's
                                         
                                         like who's gonna light it they keep it going all the way to the end of the olympics no one's
                                         
    
                                         chasing anne marie's truck she's like um one person i think
                                         
                                         i think the reason it was a surprise is because they didn't want the the violent protesters to
                                         
                                         kill wayne just just a thought um so yeah that was i did a one show for 21 people and then one
                                         
                                         show for eight people some norwegian folk yeah i had some, some Norwegian folk. Five Norwegians got kicked out of the first show.
                                         
                                         So it was for 21 people.
                                         
                                         It ended up for 16.
                                         
                                         That was devastating to the numbers.
                                         
                                         Why did they get kicked out?
                                         
    
                                         They were abusive.
                                         
                                         Just heckling you in Norwegian.
                                         
                                         I don't know what you're saying.
                                         
                                         Just get hit with a fish.
                                         
                                         Is this Assaulted Fish?
                                         
                                         Did you say Assaulted with a fish? Yeah, fish? Did you say assaulted with fish?
                                         
                                         No, I did not
                                         
                                         You might as well have
                                         
    
                                         Isn't that Norway?
                                         
                                         No, it's Finland
                                         
                                         I even guessed the wrong
                                         
                                         Well, they'll have a pickled herring
                                         
                                         Sure
                                         
                                         But no, they didn't get kicked out
                                         
                                         Until well after I was off stage
                                         
                                         They were fine to me.
                                         
    
                                         One woman said, like, it was such a small crowd, but like it was a great crowd.
                                         
                                         And some people were laughing so hard that it was infectious to the other people.
                                         
                                         So that was great.
                                         
                                         That's good.
                                         
                                         It's such a big place with 21 people in it.
                                         
                                         And you would just hear someone keep laughing and then that
                                         
                                         would make everyone else laugh. You know what infectious
                                         
                                         is. And then the...
                                         
    
                                         I know it in the disease context.
                                         
                                         And then the drunkest of the Norwegians
                                         
                                         at one point laughing so hard
                                         
                                         just goes, I'm gonna throw up.
                                         
                                         That's why she was kicked out.
                                         
                                         Not in my club you're not.
                                         
                                         You know what Norwegian puke looks like?
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
    
                                         Acid.
                                         
                                         Pickled herring. And schnapps.
                                         
                                         So I guess that was getting to know me.
                                         
                                         Graham, anything with you?
                                         
                                         Well, just to keep going with the Olympic theme,
                                         
                                         last weekend my brothers were here,
                                         
                                         and following the podcast the next day, we went to go buy my brother's girlfriend a fake Cowichan sweater.
                                         
                                         And we went to the bay.
                                         
    
                                         They're very nice sweaters.
                                         
                                         They are very nice sweaters.
                                         
                                         I think a girl looks cute in that.
                                         
                                         Yeah, why not?
                                         
                                         Maybe not a man.
                                         
                                         I don't think men are cute anymore.
                                         
                                         Not all men.
                                         
                                         No.
                                         
    
                                         That little kid who was flying around in the opening ceremony was pretty cute.
                                         
                                         Peter Pan of the Prairies.
                                         
                                         But we went into the bay where...
                                         
                                         The Hudson's Bay Company.
                                         
                                         Yeah, where they...
                                         
                                         That's the official merchandise place.
                                         
                                         Through the smash window.
                                         
                                         Yeah, we walked in through the smash window.
                                         
    
                                         New entrance.
                                         
                                         They just put a sign over top.
                                         
                                         Boom, you helped.

                                         And it was like, this was a full week before the opening ceremonies.
                                         
                                         And it was like Boxing Day in there.

                                         Boxing Day for Americans, the equivalent is Black Friday.
                                         
    
                                         Is that the equivalent?

                                         You couldn't take something out of there because you could only pay for it with a visa.

                                         Yeah, as many hauls as it is worth.
                                         
                                         I think hauls are the official lozenge.
                                         
                                         It's their debit card.
                                         
                                         I think halls are the official lozenge.
                                         
    
                                         So the other brother were waiting.
                                         
                                         And while we were waiting, this guy walks in, no shoes, no socks, no top garments, just like no shirt, just a white. So service?
                                         
                                         White, kind of like yoga pants, walks into the store. Were they filthy?
                                         
                                         Not really, not particularly.
                                         
                                         I was about to suggest it was Andrew
                                         
                                         WK. He walks
                                         
                                         in and right away we're like,
                                         
                                         some crazy is about
                                         
    
                                         to happen. And he walks in
                                         
                                         very like he's just another
                                         
                                         shopper. Then I see him go over
                                         
                                         he just grabs the first jacket
                                         
                                         it's a women's jacket he can
                                         
                                         puts it on and then runs now it should be noted this guy like a kind of a dark-skinned gentleman
                                         
                                         in the time we were standing there his skin like no less than six white people walked out
                                         
                                         set the alarm off and were allowed to just completely go without having their bags checked or anything.
                                         
    
                                         An alarm?
                                         
                                         This guy.
                                         
                                         Yeah, the store alarm that goes off.
                                         
                                         It goes off all the time because.
                                         
                                         So numerous white people glided out.
                                         
                                         No problem.
                                         
                                         This guy goes.
                                         
                                         I mean, he was obviously stealing, but he was the only one that security even looked at.
                                         
    
                                         But it was the only one that security even looked at.
                                         
                                         Half of the people that were in the store area were undercover officers in the store,
                                         
                                         all go out running after this guy. I love it.
                                         
                                         I see a guy throw his Tim Hortons coffee on the ground and chase after this guy.
                                         
                                         Like a squadron.
                                         
                                         Are you sure they were undercover?
                                         
                                         Absolutely.
                                         
                                         They all had walkie-talkies.
                                         
    
                                         And they all took off down the street.
                                         
                                         Fucking gang-t tackled this guy.
                                         
                                         Like, this guy is defenseless.
                                         
                                         Drops the coat half a block away like, I give up.
                                         
                                         No coat for me.
                                         
                                         I would want to be tackled in a coat.
                                         
                                         I wouldn't want to be tackled on the concrete shirtless.
                                         
                                         He thought they would slip on the coat.
                                         
    
                                         He made it four blocks down. Because this is on Seymour Street.
                                         
                                         So he made it four blocks down.
                                         
                                         It looked as if he was trying to get on the bus, and you could tell that the bus driver was like,
                                         
                                         I want no part of this, and took off without other passengers.
                                         
                                         Other passengers were like, get us on the bus.
                                         
                                         So that was the exact kind of perfect...
                                         
                                         I would have loved it if he made it on the
                                         
                                         bus and that was his plan but the bus just didn't go anywhere it stopped half a block away
                                         
    
                                         my brilliant plan get on the bus go to the back of the bus wave tauntingly at the people shaking
                                         
                                         their fist stops half a block away and lets off people oh no shit he gets off he just keeps
                                         
                                         running crosses the
                                         
                                         street grabs a different bus comes back the other way and he stops across the street
                                         
                                         another store steals another jacket just goes on and on all day collecting a mob of an undercover
                                         
                                         plainclothes cops i would also like to point out that i'm uh quite tired because i didn't get home
                                         
                                         from the comedy club until midnight last night.
                                         
                                         Then I
                                         
    
                                         had recorded the opening ceremonies.
                                         
                                         So you had to watch them.
                                         
                                         I had to watch them because I knew we would talk about them for 45 minutes.
                                         
                                         You're in great detail.
                                         
                                         And I was like, okay, I'll fast forward through
                                         
                                         these opening ceremonies.
                                         
                                         But I stopped
                                         
                                         for every country.
                                         
    
                                         I wanted to see their wacky outfits.
                                         
                                         I fast forwarded through most of the
                                         
                                         wire work, but I had to see every
                                         
                                         song and watch every

                                         During all that wire work,
                                         
                                         you miss so many unimportant facts
                                         
                                         where they're like...
                                         
    
                                         All the useless details are like,
                                         
                                         the dancers here are being lowered and raised at a rate of one meter per second.
                                         
                                         Three of them are eunuchs.

                                         It's the official sponsor.
                                         
                                         The PVR to my mom after the show.
                                         
                                         I mean, hauls.
                                         
                                         There must be another official
                                         
                                         courier sponsor.
                                         
                                         I don't know. Purulator's only in Canada.
                                         
                                         Is it? I think so, yeah.
                                         
                                         They usually try to go big.
                                         
    
                                         Or, you know, go home.
                                         
                                         That's one thing I like
                                         
                                         about these Olympics so far is how
                                         
                                         all the different
                                         
                                         companies are pandering to vancouver especially and just the olympics in general in their ads
                                         
                                         like how everything's like shot in vancouver yeah like they're actually using it as vancouver
                                         
                                         they're not like oh it's actually new york like they usually do with hollywood down the boston
                                         
                                         market yeah um it's just like oh uh the um no I lost it. I like the Olympics.
                                         
    
                                         Full statement.
                                         
                                         Fine.
                                         
                                         No, I don't have anything.
                                         
                                         I seriously don't.
                                         
                                         I was going to talk about, oh, no.
                                         
                                         What I think would be great is if, like, a small mom and pop shop just got their money together.
                                         
                                         Like Joe's Diner.
                                         
                                         It was like, we're going to outbid McDonald's for an official restaurant.
                                         
    
                                         And it's just someplace in the middle of nowhere.
                                         
                                         I would like it if it was something where it was like, yeah, but something that we don't even have in Canada.
                                         
                                         Like Popeyes or something like that.
                                         
                                         Yeah, sure.
                                         
                                         Fudruckers.
                                         
                                         Fudruckers.
                                         
                                         Official Olympic sponsor. Cross the border for Fudruckers Fudruckers Official Olympic sponsor
                                         
                                         Cross the border for Fudruckers
                                         
    
                                         Have you ever seen that
                                         
                                         I think I've talked about it on the podcast
                                         
                                         Idiocracy
                                         
                                         Where they show the evolution of the name Fudruckers
                                         
                                         Oh they do?
                                         
                                         It starts as Fudruckers
                                         
                                         And they show in the future
                                         
                                         What it turns
                                         
    
                                         Fudruckers then it turns to Rudfuckers, and then Buttfuckers.
                                         
                                         That's really the best part of Idiocracy.
                                         
                                         That and the term baitin'.

                                         He opens the fake door and pees in the toilet. No, they had to buy a mini fridge and cut out the bottom and put it on top of the toilet. He opens the fake door and pees in it. No, they had to buy a mini fridge

                                         whatever you're doing,

                                         A place where there are waiters and waitresses.
                                         
    
                                         If you've given an address that doesn't exist

                                         in the bushes to attack him for his money.
                                         
                                         And you overheard

                                         get attacked. That's hilarious.
                                         
                                         Because it's ironic because he's about to get
                                         
                                         attacked. Yeah, and he's rich.
                                         
    
                                         That's where you're stealing from.
                                         
                                         He's rich and eccentric. Because they're always able
                                         
                                         to make change.
                                         
                                         Take his bulletproof vest off of him.
                                         
                                         And we like to always start with the guest.
                                         
                                         It's not a bulletproof vest. It's just a thing.
                                         
                                         It's a crazy stick vest. Yeah, it's a thing that keeps pizzas hot.
                                         
                                         He just keeps the pizzas close to his body.
                                         
    
                                         Heated by body heat.
                                         
                                         Papa's body heat pizza.
                                         
                                         All the pizzas are shaped like an undershirt.
                                         
                                         That's the grossest idea.
                                         
                                         Are the toppings inside the shirt or outside?
                                         
                                         They keep them inside. That's where they keep warm. Is it like a bazon where the shirt or outside? They keep them inside.
                                         
                                         That's where they keep warm.
                                         
                                         Is it like a bazon where the shirt is stuffed with ingredients?
                                         
    
                                         No, it's shaped like a shirt, but it just has two pepperonis for nipples.
                                         
                                         It's called the Joel Schumacher shirt.
                                         
                                         I don't know.
                                         
                                         I don't get it.
                                         
                                         That's a Batman reference.
                                         
                                         They put nipples on us.

                                         What kind of body you got?
                                         
                                         What kind of body you got?
                                         
                                         I said that, and I looked out the window, and it's this like tiny guy in this huge tracksuit
                                         
                                         yelling at like a 50-year-old man trying to get his double-parked car out that he had double-parked in.
                                         
                                         Obviously, a 50-year-old man probably was like, who parked my car, you jerk?
                                         
                                         And then that guy's like, I tried to be nice.
                                         
                                         You were fat.
                                         
                                         Let's dance.
                                         
    
                                         What kind of body you got?
                                         
                                         Well, he's a 50-year-old man, so it's a shitty body.
                                         
                                         He wasn't like Jack LaLanne.
                                         
                                         He wasn't all ripped or something.
                                         
                                         That's a hot body.
                                         
                                         Yeah, and it went on for so long until my girlfriend, she's good at yelling at them.
                                         
                                         Because I think if I yelled, he would have been like, what kind of body you got?
                                         
                                         And I'd be like, it's also shitty.
                                         
    
                                         A 50-year-old man body.
                                         
                                         I can't even close this window.
                                         
                                         But your girlfriend shakes a mean macaroni stick?
                                         
                                         No, what are you?
                                         
                                         Rolling pin.
                                         
                                         A French bread.
                                         
                                         Viva la resistance.
                                         
                                         A pizza t-shirt.
                                         
    
                                         Do you...
                                         
                                         Like, I live in not a great neighborhood.
                                         
                                         You apparently live among drug dealers.
                                         
                                         I call it convenient.
                                         
                                         No, I'm just kidding.
                                         
                                         That was a dumb laugh.
                                         
                                         Sorry.
                                         
                                         Taken big.
                                         
    
                                         I wonder what my parents... Like like they've never expressed any concern.
                                         
                                         Once my dad's friend was over and he was like, oh, where are you living?
                                         
                                         And I told him and I was like, it's not a great neighborhood.
                                         
                                         And he was like, well, it's age appropriate.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Well, because like when you're, I think, isn't that the thing?
                                         
                                         When you're young, like you can live in a dive and you can live in, I think, isn't that the thing? When you're young, you can live in a dive.
                                         
                                         I think your tolerance for it probably plateaus at some point, and then it gets fairly desperate.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah, I mean, it's not dangerous.
                                         
                                         No, not like Michael Jackson's album, Dangerous.
                                         
                                         Sure, yeah.
                                         
                                         Oh, that song, Jam?
                                         
                                         Oh, that song Jam?
                                         
                                         Actually, in my neighborhood, I live across from a Russian Orthodox church.
                                         
                                         And it's not like a big church.
                                         
                                         It's on a street with just houses, and it's probably the smallest house on the street.
                                         
    
                                         It's actually somebody's house.
                                         
                                         They're doing that to get the tax break.
                                         
                                         Yeah, but they have one of those weird Kremlin tops.
                                         
                                         Kremlin?
                                         
                                         Yeah, Kremlin tops. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                         What's the name of that?
                                         
                                         Like a spire?
                                         
                                         Yeah, like a meringue.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah, yeah, I gotcha.
                                         
                                         And so any stalkers, feel free.
                                         
                                         You're getting closer.
                                         
                                         There's an apple tree in the yard.
                                         
                                         You're getting closer.
                                         
                                         There's an apple tree in the yard.
                                         
                                         But there were some Russian tourists this morning who came by and took pictures of it.
                                         
                                         And that's like the Olympics.
                                         
    
                                         You see a lot of European tourists here taking pictures of garbage.
                                         
                                         Well, and I imagine I've done the same thing when I'm a tourist.
                                         
                                         Like I'm taking pictures of something that they're like, why is he taking a picture of our skankiest nightclub?
                                         
                                         But it looks like an old building on the front.
                                         
                                         Well, that's what happened.
                                         
                                         I was in France once and I just found myself there.
                                         
                                         You woke up there? I went up a butthole and I was in France.
                                         
                                         Yeah, at 666 Satan Street.

                                         We're in some small town, and there was a dry cleaning place that my friend and I were like,
                                         
                                         that's amazing.

                                         tomorrow morning is uh sunday morning and i'm really curious if there will be an influx of Russians coming to this church.
                                         
                                         For all you know, that church is the most famous Russian church abroad.
                                         
                                         It might be, but it's tiny.
                                         
                                         And they have service on Sundays at 11, but people show up two hours early.
                                         
                                         on Sundays at 11,
                                         
    
                                         but people show up two hours early.
                                         
                                         And service is at 11 because they start ringing the bells at 1045.
                                         
                                         That's how I know.
                                         
                                         But during the service,
                                         
                                         people are just...
                                         
                                         I assume there's people inside,
                                         
                                         but people are wandering the garden.
                                         
                                         Oh, okay.
                                         
    
                                         Your garden?
                                         
                                         No, no, theirs.
                                         
                                         The beer garden.
                                         
                                         The traditional Russian church beer garden.
                                         
                                         But there's probably more Russians in town than any other delegation.
                                         
                                         I was saying, their uniforms are, like, their kind of everyday wear track suits are easily the most hideous of anybody at the games.
                                         
                                         Because the one I saw, I don't know,
                                         
                                         what do they look like? It's kind of like an orangey-pink
                                         
    
                                         color, and it's got like a
                                         
                                         splashy... Is it like Canada's
                                         
                                         China uniforms?
                                         
                                         Very similar, to the point that I was like,
                                         
                                         why are we wearing our old China uniforms?
                                         
                                         And then I saw them all
                                         
                                         singing Little Less Conversation. Oh, that's right,
                                         
                                         Dolph Lundgren's not Russian.
                                         
    
                                         The guy I saw, the Russian guy I saw
                                         
                                         in the tracksuit,
                                         
                                         not wearing that tracksuit.
                                         
                                         He was wearing
                                         
                                         a bootleg tracksuit.
                                         
                                         Really?
                                         
                                         He must have.
                                         
                                         It was like white
                                         
    
                                         and it just said
                                         
                                         Russian on the back,
                                         
                                         but it was like
                                         
                                         a full-on tracksuit.
                                         
                                         The ones I've seen

                                         San Moritz twice. San Moritz, and then
                                         
                                         there was another one, something... Garmisch
                                         
                                         Park in Kirchen? Yeah.

                                         There was one, I can't, it
                                         
                                         almost sounded like it was a park. Like, it was like
                                         
                                         Deer Lake Park. And I'm like,
                                         
                                         well, I'm mishearing oh

                                         Wasn't Lake Placid the one with the alligator?
                                         
                                         Yeah, with Betty White.
                                         
                                         The alligator and Betty White as a bobsled team.
                                         
                                         They were the mascots, Betty White and an alligator.
                                         
                                         We're the mascots of the last Lake Placid games.
                                         
    
                                         That'd be awesome.
                                         
                                         But they, yeah.
                                         
                                         And the weird thing is all these places built 30,000 seat stadia.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Stadia, plural.
                                         
                                         And there's no reason for those.
                                         
                                         They will sit empty unless there's competitive, you know.
                                         
                                         Highline tournament that needs somewhere to compete.
                                         
    
                                         Or competitive wire work.
                                         
                                         Dave, do you have an overheard?
                                         
                                         I sure do.
                                         
                                         All right.
                                         
                                         I went,
                                         
                                         I had to go downtown four times,
                                         
                                         three times so far this weekend,
                                         
                                         Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday,
                                         
    
                                         because I was in a comedy competition
                                         
                                         where I came in a respectable second.
                                         
                                         I was the judge one of the nights.
                                         
                                         I was cheating.
                                         
                                         I had him first.
                                         
                                         You were wrong.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         That explains how I came in second.
                                         
    
                                         It was the bell curve.
                                         
                                         But, you know, you came out first.
                                         
                                         You had automatic points.
                                         
                                         Because I was like, whoever comes out first gets automatic points.
                                         
                                         I didn't know you were first, though.
                                         
                                         I had to go first two nights in a row.
                                         
                                         Damn.
                                         
                                         Yikes, guys.
                                         
    
                                         Who won?
                                         
                                         Darcy Michael.
                                         
                                         Darcy Michael, also very funny.
                                         
                                         It was a good show all around,
                                         
                                         except that there was nobody there
                                         
                                         because of the Olympics.
                                         
                                         Yeah, and the people that were there
                                         
                                         were really drunk Americans
                                         
    
                                         that hooted in the middle of every joke.
                                         
                                         USA! USA!
                                         
                                         So I went downtown three times
                                         
                                         I will go downtown again tonight
                                         
                                         Why not?
                                         
                                         In the thick of it
                                         
                                         The thick of the night
                                         
                                         And usually
                                         
    
                                         I didn't drive last night
                                         
                                         I drove the first two nights
                                         
                                         Because I was a little afraid
                                         
                                         That with all the olympics in
                                         
                                         town you wouldn't be they tell people don't drive yeah it's gonna be crazy downtown arrive alive
                                         
                                         don't drive yeah and then you go downtown and everyone's heeded the warning and there's plenty
                                         
                                         of parking yeah it's really ghost town kind of uh except for the drunks drunks have managed to
                                         
                                         yeah and the spooky way It's not spooky.
                                         
    
                                         It's true. It's not so much a ghost town.
                                         
                                         It's a parking ghost town.
                                         
                                         And I double parked because I
                                         
                                         tried to show off what kind of body I had.
                                         
                                         We're getting bogged down in semantics, guys.
                                         
                                         Second place.
                                         
                                         So, yeah.
                                         
                                         But the first night I parked really far away
                                         
    
                                         Because I assumed there would be no parking closer
                                         
                                         And I walked
                                         
                                         And I brought my iPod
                                         
                                         But there was so much going on
                                         
                                         I didn't feel like listening to it
                                         
                                         So I listened to the voices around me
                                         
                                         And there was

                                         getting him to type it. I already said

                                         I can't unsend the email.
                                         
                                         It says I love you.
                                         
                                         If you figure out a way to unsend an email,
                                         
                                         send me an email about it from the future, because you're in the
                                         
                                         future where you can unsend emails. But I
                                         
    
                                         refuse to say I love you right
                                         
                                         now, because that would be faggy.
                                         
                                         The only thing I love too, but I lied.
                                         
                                         Who's that?
                                         
                                         Michael Poulton. And also
                                         
                                         from a side dish commercial.
                                         
                                         Side kick side dishes commercial.
                                         
                                         Really? A little salt shaker that goes outside
                                         
    
                                         and cries salt. Oh, that's
                                         
                                         cute. That's actually
                                         
                                         in the top half of
                                         
                                         advertising. Yeah. Oh, easily.
                                         
                                         Although it's a little confusing
                                         
                                         because the S on the salt shaker
                                         
                                         is the same S as is on a Skittle.
                                         
                                         Yeah, but then if he cried
                                         
    
                                         Skittles, then it would be really confusing.
                                         
                                         It would be so confusing. He'd be like, am I tasting the rainbow
                                         
                                         for dinner? Skittle shaker?
                                         
                                         Yeah, am I supposed to put that on my mashed potatoes.
                                         
                                         On my pizza t-shirt.
                                         
                                         My overheard actually comes courtesy of that comedy competition, because I can't remember my other overheard.
                                         
                                         But this made me laugh out loud.
                                         
                                         You heard me laugh at it.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Was during the competition, past guest Jane Stanton was on stage and like the audience had really calmed down the
                                         
                                         the American contingent had been told shut up or we'll kick you out which
                                         
                                         would have been at least a fifth of the audience but at one point Jane tells a
                                         
                                         joke where she's walking and her thighs are rubbing together and it sounds like

                                         Dear John, I want to eat your face.
                                         
                                         What?
                                         
                                         Scariest text message in the world.
                                         
                                         Dear John is the Channing Tatum movie starring Channing Tatum.
                                         
    
                                         The synopsis that I read online for that was like,
                                         
                                         Man comes home from war, dates a conservative woman.
                                         
                                         I was like, what?
                                         
                                         There doesn't seem to be much conflict there.
                                         
                                         About right, yeah.

                                         I was recently in Terrace, B.C.
                                         
                                         I was in the hot tub of the rec center one day
                                         
                                         and noticed a younger fella, very early 20s,
                                         
                                         with possibly the best worst tattoo ever. Just above his ass
                                         
                                         he had a tramp stamp.
                                         
    
                                         Which, okay.
                                         
                                         Rendition of a rather large
                                         
                                         wooden post sign that said
                                         
                                         wrong way.
                                         
                                         No butt sex for this guy.

                                         Usually I edit out these lulls
                                         
                                         The lull is him googling the words

                                         I don't understand a lot of these words.
                                         
                                         I'm sounding them out
                                         
                                         mostly phonetically.
                                         
                                         My name is Ellington, and one time
                                         
                                         he's relating one of the times when a kid
                                         
    
                                         sassed him off.
                                         
                                         Ellington?
                                         
                                         Don't say his last name.
                                         
                                         I won't. I didn't.
                                         
                                         It's a very, like, Ellington
                                         
                                         whatever his last name is. Is this his first name? like, Ellington, whatever his last name is.
                                         
                                         Is this his first name?
                                         
                                         Yeah, Ellington. It might as well be Rothschild.
                                         
    
                                         It's a very...
                                         
                                         Oh, it's a very posh name.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Velvet Face.
                                         
                                         Yes.
                                         
                                         But yeah, he said, my name is Ellington one time.
                                         
                                         He might as well be the third.
                                         
                                         There was this 13-year-old that was making fun of me, and I say, shh. And he says, yeah?
                                         
    
                                         Well, you can suck it.
                                         
                                         And pivots just to fart right in my face and lets out a triumphant, ha!
                                         
                                         Imagine if he said, suck it, and turned and then it just whiffed on the fart, and he would go, oh!
                                         
                                         Imagine if that had happened.
                                         
                                         I can't.
                                         
                                         Imagine a world where you can imagine that could happen.
                                         
                                         That's very similar
                                         
                                         to my being farted in the face story.

                                         farts in another guy's face is pretty funny.

                                         All right, this is from Shane M.
                                         
                                         I was in the line at the cafeteria across the street from my work when I overheard a
                                         
                                         man and a woman at a nearby table discussing their meals. The woman asked the man, how's the chicken wrap? To which
                                         
                                         he responded, looking very upset, super shitty. They don't know how to make a wrap. It's like
                                         
                                         they took a bunch of ingredients and just rolled them up in a tortilla. The woman just stared
                                         
                                         blankly at the man until he said, what? There was a lengthy, awkward pause before she told him, just eat your soup.
                                         
                                         Pretty good.
                                         
    
                                         How's the sandwich?
                                         
                                         Oh, shitty.
                                         
                                         They put meat between bread.
                                         
                                         They put meat and veggies and they put this weird sauce on it.
                                         
                                         How's the pasta?
                                         
                                         It's shitty.
                                         
                                         It's like flat in a noodle form.

                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Let's keep things private.
                                         
                                         Yeah, exactly.
                                         
    
                                         Let me down.
                                         
                                         Finally, you got the name right.
                                         
                                         On the way home last night, passing a few drunken jock types,
                                         
                                         I caught just a snippet of their conversation.
                                         
                                         One guy says to his two buddies,
                                         
                                         Yeah, I've been trying to train this girl how to do that.
                                         
                                         His friends laugh.
                                         
                                         He continues,
                                         
    
                                         I know it's possible.
                                         
                                         I've done it before.
                                         
                                         Jesus.
                                         
                                         So those are just a sample of overheards.

                                         Hello, Dave, Graham,
                                         
                                         and guest. Last time I called and said that
                                         
                                         and there was no guest and I felt
                                         
                                         pretty silly, so hopefully you guys have one now.
                                         
                                         I have an overheard for you.
                                         
    
                                         I was at the gas station the other day
                                         
                                         and the guy at the pump next to me was on the phone
                                         
                                         and he seemed kind of
                                         
                                         nervous or upset,
                                         
                                         and I think I might know why.
                                         
                                         Here's what he said.
                                         
                                         He said,
                                         
                                         Baby, can you please start your period?
                                         
    
                                         So, yeah.
                                         
                                         I need you to concentrate here.
                                         
                                         I know you've been holding off
                                         
                                         because we have that big meeting on Friday
                                         
                                         with the period police.
                                         
                                         I want you to turn off the TV,
                                         
                                         shut your eyes,
                                         
                                         and really concentrate on this.
                                         
    
                                         I know you're afraid
                                         
                                         that if you have it,
                                         
                                         they won't let you on a plane.
                                         
                                         They won't let you train that bear.
                                         
                                         Yeah, or get on that shark tank.
                                         
                                         Or go swimming.
                                         
                                         Or be an undercover cop
                                         
                                         at the eBay.
                                         
    
                                         An undercover cop
                                         
                                         with a white pants squadron.

                                         Wow.
                                         
                                         Then he's requesting it.
                                         
                                         I've submitted it in written request.
                                         
                                         I have emailed it.
                                         
                                         You're giving me nothing but red tape.

                                         Hey Dave and Graham
                                         
                                         And possible guest
                                         
                                         It's Katie from Minnesota
                                         
                                         And I have an overheard that my roommate told me about.
                                         
                                         She works in the school in North Minneapolis,
                                         
                                         and she works mostly with the fifth graders
                                         
                                         and troubled youths.
                                         
                                         And today she told me about a teacher that she works with
                                         
    
                                         who she overheard admonishing a student
                                         
                                         who I guess had gotten into a lot of trouble that day.
                                         
                                         Yeah, the teacher had just about enough of it, so she said to the kid,
                                         
                                         from here on out, I want to be on you like a bee on a turd.
                                         
                                         I don't think I've ever heard that before,
                                         
                                         but I guess you can't say, like, stink on shit to a fifth grader,
                                         
                                         so bee on a turd it is.
                                         
                                         Well, that kid's going to be completely backwards on the pollination process
                                         
    
                                         for probably most of her life.
                                         
                                         Or for the rest of it, like, 20 years later, he's going to be, like,
                                         
                                         thinking of it and be like, wait a minute, I've never seen a bee on a turd.
                                         
                                         She was saying she was going to leave me alone if I kept fucking around.
                                         
                                         God damn it!
                                         
                                         Why was I so uneducated?
                                         
                                         Do you remember?
                                         
                                         Education, get some.
                                         
    
                                         The more you know.
                                         
                                         He's going to tour schools and tell that story.
                                         
                                         He'll be like, don't be like me.
                                         
                                         20 years later, regretting your entire life.
                                         
                                         I could have screwed around so much.
                                         
                                         Do you remember when you were a kid and you were in school and you'd get in a lot of trouble?
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Like more than once a day?
                                         
    
                                         Yeah. That's why she just, like, more than once a day. Yeah.
                                         
                                         I don't know if, like, when I was in elementary school, I remember one time I was, maybe it
                                         
                                         was like grade two or grade three, and you were sitting in those desks where the chair
                                         
                                         is connected to the desk by a metal.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Well, some of the, later on, your chair's not.
                                         
                                         University.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
    
                                         No, that's the one I'm thinking of.
                                         
                                         Something's just still connected there.
                                         
                                         But I was sitting in the desk, and I was horsing around.
                                         
                                         The teacher was not interested and kept yelling at me.
                                         
                                         But for some reason, I was on a real hot streak.
                                         
                                         I was getting some really good laughs.
                                         
                                         Yeah, keep going.
                                         
                                         I just let it ride.
                                         
    
                                         So I just kept going.
                                         
                                         And the teacher, I think, had one of those moments,
                                         
                                         probably one of those moments when you explain to a judge
                                         
                                         where you're like, everything went black,
                                         
                                         where the teacher grabbed my desk
                                         
                                         and pushed me and the desk through the classroom
                                         
                                         and out the door into the hallway.
                                         
                                         I was sitting in the desk. So pushed and out the door into the hallway. I was sitting in the desk.
                                         
    
                                         So pushed the whole unit out of the class.
                                         
                                         He said, you're not coming back and slammed the door.
                                         
                                         It would have been amazing if you'd kept going in the hallway and all the janitorial staff
                                         
                                         gathers around you.
                                         
                                         They're like, woo, woo, woo.
                                         
                                         Like cheering you on.
                                         
                                         Let's race them.
                                         
                                         He's going on tour.
                                         
    
                                         And they just push you into a geography class and you just keep ripping.
                                         
                                         Chicken fights.
                                         
                                         You just see through that top glass in the window all these toilet paper rolls flying through.
                                         
                                         What's the most trouble you ever got in in school, Kevin?
                                         
                                         One thing that's close but so fucking dumb.
                                         
                                         I was a pretty big goody two-shoes in school.
                                         
                                         And there was a time in high school I was afraid of trouble.
                                         
                                         Just getting in trouble, getting spoken to
                                         
    
                                         by an authority figure was terrifying.
                                         
                                         And so
                                         
                                         I basically discovered music the year before.
                                         
                                         And this was like grade 8 or something.
                                         
                                         And I was in Madame Berube's
                                         
                                         French science class.
                                         
                                         And I was looking around
                                         
                                         and I was like, around and i was like

                                         But his name on all the forms he would send home, like the announcements to your parents,
                                         
                                         he would sign it Andy Talmanis.

                                         Overheards. All right.
                                         
                                         Hi, this is Mary from Los Angeles, and I have an overheard.
                                         
                                         It's from a couple of years ago, but I love this story.
                                         
    
                                         A few years ago, I was doing a midnight bike ride through L.A.
                                         
                                         with this kind of like outlaw biker club.
                                         
                                         Anyway, that's a whole other story.
                                         
                                         We're riding down the streets, and suddenly these two guys come up next to me, and they're kind of stoner-looking guys, and they're having this quasi-philosophical discussion.
                                         
                                         And then one guy says to the other, dude, you know what would make this conversation so much better?
                                         
                                         And the other guy says, you know what would make this conversation so much better? And the other guy says, no, what?
                                         
                                         And the first guy says, if we finished it when we were high.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
    
                                         And then they stopped talking.
                                         
                                         I thought it was hilarious.
                                         
                                         So love your show.
                                         
                                         Thanks.
                                         
                                         What happens is they smoke weed.
                                         
                                         Put a pin in it.
                                         
                                         They smoke weed, and then they just forget the conversation entirely.
                                         
                                         What was that conversation we were having?
                                         
    
                                         I'm starving.

                                         I hope I'm dead.

                                         I have a similar movie overheard where I was in a cafe and this guy was talking about movies.
                                         
                                         And it's one of those things where the guy does not realize his own volume.
                                         
    
                                         And so he's taking over the entire cafe like no matter what
                                         
                                         conversations you're having cafe that's where that expression comes from these guys are usually the
                                         
                                         biggest idiots where they don't they misquote things where he's like he's like oh have you
                                         
                                         seen he's talking about the road right and then he's like basically like describing it's supposed
                                         
                                         it's all about about big o martin it's all about... About Viggo Mortensen.
                                         
                                         It's all about compassion.
                                         
                                         It's basically about compassion and teaching his kid
                                         
                                         how to kill people.
                                         
    
                                         It's like Zombieland.
                                         
                                         I'm like, I don't think that's it.
                                         
                                         And then he's like, have you seen No Country for Old Men?
                                         
                                         And they're like... That's the thing.
                                         
                                         He's so loud that you can't hear that he's talking to anybody else.
                                         
                                         Because they're all talking at normal volume.
                                         
                                         So he's like, no country for old men?
                                         
                                         Brilliant movie.
                                         
    
                                         Brilliant movie.
                                         
                                         There's a psychopath played by Benicio Del Toro that's just so crazy.
                                         
                                         And it's Javier Bardem.
                                         
                                         He just names some other kind of stridey ethnic guy or whatever.
                                         
                                         Played by Penelope Cruz.
                                         
                                         We can see him pinching the bridge of his nose under his tiny,
                                         
                                         small circle glasses, being like, so brilliant.
                                         
                                         So many people do not appreciate cinema.

                                         I was watching
                                         
                                         this thing that a guy had put together,
                                         
                                         kind of a highlight reel of clips of movies of the 2000s.
                                         
                                         And it dawned on me that Nicholas Cage is the one actor that has been absolutely brilliant in half of his films and in the other half utterly unwatchable.
                                         
    
                                         Because they show clips from Adaptation and Matchstick Men.
                                         
                                         That's the one that came to mind. I can't think of any others. What's Matchstick Men? Have youation and Matchstick Men. That's the one that came to mind.
                                         
                                         I can't think of any others.
                                         
                                         What's Matchstick Men?
                                         
                                         Have you ever seen Matchstick Men?
                                         
                                         It's him and Sam Rockwell.
                                         
                                         And Alison Lohman.
                                         
                                         Yeah, and he's great in it.
                                         
    
                                         He's been great in a lot of things.
                                         
                                         He was great in Lord of War.
                                         
                                         And then he's...
                                         
                                         I haven't seen the sequel to Bad Lieutenant, but I heard he's insane in it.
                                         
                                         Lord of War was a movie he did in, oh, 2005, 2006.
                                         
                                         And it had the Jeff Buckley version of Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah, which we mentioned.
                                         
                                         Oh, that was in that?
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
    
                                         Okay.

                                         Calling Future Shop and asking for best buy.
                                         
                                         Drunk Dials.

                                         I could be part of it.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah, there was a good chunk in there.
                                         
                                         There's some chunks in there.
                                         
                                         My favorite was that you started it and said,
                                         
                                         just kidding, after the second line.
                                         
                                         And then continued.
                                         
                                         Oh, continued, yeah.
                                         
                                         You tried and stopped kidding after a while.
                                         
                                         Stopped kidding.
                                         
    
                                         If you put his voice through the sound effect of calling through a phone,
                                         
                                         that would even be...
                                         
                                         Don't tell me how to do my job.

                                         And it looks like it needs a big hug
                                         
                                         And I just

                                         let us know why
                                         
                                         okay my friend's probably going to call
                                         
                                         with an overheard now
                                         
                                         was it her
                                         
                                         I just overheard my friend talking about a bear.
                                         
    
                                         She was like, why? Why?
                                         
                                         She wouldn't stop saying, why?
                                         
                                         What do you mean, why?
                                         
                                         We have sad bears up here.
                                         
                                         The planet's falling apart, people.
                                         
                                         And have you seen an opening ceremony?
                                         
                                         It doesn't need to make sense.
                                         
                                         It's interpretive. It's interpretive dance.
                                         
    
                                         It's meant to make you go, why?
                                         
                                         I think we sort of discussed this for a moment.
                                         
                                         It's meant to make you go, why?
                                         
                                         I think we sort of discussed this for a moment.
                                         
                                         Have you seen the Alaskan hockey team with the polar bear?
                                         
                                         Have you seen their new one?
                                         
                                         No.
                                         
                                         Where he's flying the jet?
                                         
    
                                         What is this?
                                         
                                         What?
                                         
                                         I guess it's an Alaskan hockey team, and it made the rounds on the internet.
                                         
                                         The Malamutes.
                                         
                                         Was it?
                                         
                                         No.
                                         
                                         But it was the- The Ulu yeah i did i worked in alaska

                                         didn't go up a river.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         It was like smack dab in the middle.
                                         
                                         No, people cruise up to Alaska and they take a train around and stuff like that.
                                         
                                         Wow.
                                         
    
                                         It's basically like old people's journey of realization that they're so old.
                                         
                                         That they enjoy cruising.
                                         
                                         They enjoy cruising, but they don't enjoy a rocky terrain, rough, unhewn Alaska.

                                         The Ulu knife is the thing
                                         
                                         it's kind of like a rounded blade

                                         a lot of Lord of the Rings paraphernalia

                                         Well, you have to see this thing.
                                         
                                         It's a hockey team, and they came up with this video as an intro before the team skates
                                         
                                         out on the ice.
                                         
                                         And the first one I don't really remember is a polar bear flying in outer space.
                                         
                                         No, it's fucking a bear.
                                         
                                         This one takes it to another level. Oh, wow.
                                         
                                         Where it blows up the whole planet.

                                         Flavor Flav has been in jail for a while.
                                         
                                         He gets out and he's living with his...
                                         
                                         In the TV show.
                                         
                                         Oh, this is a fictional show.
                                         
                                         I thought it was another reality show.
                                         
    
                                         No, no, no.
                                         
                                         Was it pre-reality show or post?
                                         
                                         Post.
                                         
                                         Okay.
                                         
                                         Do it in post.
                                         
                                         He plays a character named Lil' Cal, I believe.
                                         
                                         Or Clocky.
                                         
                                         And he's living with his posh brother, for whom he took the fall.
                                         
    
                                         And so that's why he's been in prison.
                                         
                                         And his brother has succeeded.
                                         
                                         So is this like the West Wing or is it like Fresh Prince of Bel-
                                         
                                         It's like Fresh Prince of Bel-
                                         
                                         Okay.
                                         
                                         Sounds like the West.
                                         
                                         It sounds dramatic.
                                         
                                         It's like he comes back and it's all dramatic.
                                         
    
                                         It's the West Wing!
                                         
                                         So here's a call about that.
                                         
                                         Oh.
                                         
                                         Hey, Graham and Dave.
                                         
                                         This is Andy from Los Angeles.
                                         
                                         On your last podcast, you were talking about Flava Flav and his sitcom so I thought I'd call in
                                         
                                         because I worked on that sitcom I was a sort of stand-in for the role of Walter Jr. of the Sun
                                         
                                         for the table reads so basically what that means is I have acted in rehearsal scenes Wow. this guy was another stand-in and he was reading for one of the other roles and he whenever he
                                         
    
                                         referred to Flava Flay's character he would call him little Cal but it was typed out in the script
                                         
                                         it was spelled out as a capital L I apostrophe L so whenever read it, he would read it as Lie One Cal.
                                         
                                         And everybody was cracking up every time he said it.
                                         
                                         And he did not catch on.
                                         
                                         He read it as Lie One Cal for the entire
                                         
                                         episode. So everybody thought that was
                                         
                                         really funny.

                                         I believe the font where one and lowercase L look the same is Courier.
                                         
                                         Yeah, that's Courier.
                                         
    
                                         It's the script font.
                                         
                                         That's what Flavor Flaving It is here.

                                         We, we, a listener sent us in $100 for our 100th episode.
                                         
                                         What?
                                         
                                         Very nice.
                                         
                                         William P. from the great state of Illinois, the land of Lincoln.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
    
                                         And we spent that $100 on phone calls from HollywoodIsCalling.com.
                                         
                                         Which is a service, if you haven't heard,
                                         
                                         they will send your message to Hollywood Star and they will call your phone number with said message.
                                         
                                         So we had Lou Ferrigno, the Incredible Hulk,
                                         
                                         call us in and wish us more incredible years.
                                         
                                         Yeah, and Russell Johnson, the professor from Gilligan's Island.
                                         
                                         Who went off script.
                                         
                                         We told him... That's Island. Who went off script. We told him.
                                         
    
                                         We told him.
                                         
                                         That's right, he did.
                                         
                                         Yeah, we gave him.
                                         
                                         You get to write a little script for them.
                                         
                                         But you're not allowed to broadcast it or profit from it or anything.
                                         
                                         So we had to just say we were having an anniversary.
                                         
                                         And we couldn't mention our podcast in it.
                                         
                                         So we just said, happy anniversary, Dave and Graham.
                                         
    
                                         And so Russell Johnson,
                                         
                                         the professor from Gilligan's
                                         
                                         Island, we told him, hey Dave and
                                         
                                         Graham, according to my readings,
                                         
                                         you're
                                         
                                         having an anniversary.
                                         
                                         He was doing a cold read.
                                         
                                         He just went off script. He also said, God bless you.
                                         
    
                                         He's very kind. Yeah, he's 85
                                         
                                         years old. I looked it up.
                                         
                                         He probably just thinks we're a homosexual couple who are having an anniversary.
                                         
                                         I'm sure everyone did.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         But we also...
                                         
                                         We should have left our outgoing message where it was like you and I doing one word each.
                                         
                                         Hey, this is Dave and Graham.
                                         
    
                                         Like a little sound effect.
                                         
                                         Ding-a-ling-a-ling.

                                         Because homosexuals have horrible tastes in common.
                                         
                                         No, no just just really for

                                         Yeah, so we hedged our bets.
                                         
                                         Yeah, and we made three requests.
                                         
                                         And so we have this third call.
                                         
                                         It's by Warrington Gillette.
                                         
                                         Who's that?
                                         
                                         He played Jason in Friday the 13th Part 2.
                                         
                                         And Warrington Gillette is a very posh name in its own.
                                         
    
                                         Very.

                                         He made it better.
                                         
    
                                         And also he referred to Friday the 13th as Friday 13.

                                         No, I'm staying home for the duration of the Olympics.
                                         
                                         You've got to hide out.
                                         
                                         Yeah.

                                         Tonight's my last night of going out.
                                         
                                         And yeah, I will be on the town at different places,
                                         
                                         but I can't remember any of the specific locations off the top of my head.
                                         
                                         So I'll say I have nothing as well.
                                         
                                         But again, if you enjoyed the podcast, please tell your friends.
                                         
                                         Do your best to spread it around because we would like this thing to grow to capacity.
                                         
                                         I don't know how big that is, but we would like to see that.
