I seriously, I bring her into auditions, and she's so cute that they want to hire me because I come with her. And even a few months ago, we both auditioned for a car commercial and she booked it and I didn't know it. Babies can't drive. Wait, did she get your role?
Starting point is 00:04:10 Yeah, I can't drive 55 weeks. Week. Never mind. I'm just picturing a commercial where the baby gets the role of the mother. She's that good.
Starting point is 00:04:27 And natural. Does she have sunglasses? Does she have long hair? Does she have hair? Yeah, she has super long hair. Big eyes. She basically looks like a Muppet version of me. She's 23 years old. Not yet.
Starting point is 00:04:43 A Muppet version of you? Yeah. Is that what you always dreamed motherhood would be like oh yeah kind of a squishy less uh yeah uh floppy yeah no yes and no hands up the butt no hands up well there's still time yeah um now uh so you're doing so you're doing, like, you're doing, that's a lot of stuff. Well, you've got to be a slash if you want to make money in this. Ask anyone. Well, ask slash. Come on.
Starting point is 00:05:12 Okay, my friend calls it a portfolio earner. Oh, a baby? No, I mean, yeah, baby is my portfolio earner. Like, you have to do, we all know this, we have to do so many different things to, you know, pay the rent, right? So actor slash writer slash pimp. Yeah, you're doing it. Yeah, you're pimping. And you, how long has it been you've been in Toronto for?
Starting point is 00:05:38 Like almost four years. Four years. Wow. I love it. Do you? It's just arrogant and fast and it stinks. It smells bad,. It smells bad. It literally smells bad.
Starting point is 00:05:47 I was trying to think of somebody who's arrogant, fast, and stinks. Usain Bolt. But I assume he probably smells pretty good. He probably takes a lot of showers, I bet. Nobody came to mind. I was like, work, brain, work. I'm trying things to stop me. There's arrogant, fast, and stupid.
Starting point is 00:06:10 Yeah, most people who are fast, you can't smell them because they're, you know. Yeah, a lot of people who are arrogant don't smell bad either because they really pride themselves on all the things they do. Or maybe they're so arrogant, they're like. Do you think that there are? There's arrogant, smelly people? Oh, yeah. Really? I'm guessing like a Julian Schnabel.
Starting point is 00:06:33 Or like someone that spends so much time on the beach because they don't need any money. Yeah. And they want to smell like the beach to show you that you have to have a job. I hate this imaginary person. Yeah. I wish this person was faster. So I miss Vancouver. I miss some of person. Yeah. I wish this person was faster. So I miss Vancouver. I miss some of the people here.
Starting point is 00:06:49 You too, of course, and others. However, work is better in Toronto for me. Yeah, which is great. Yeah. And you went out there. When you left, you weren't a mother. No. Right?
Starting point is 00:07:00 So that happened. I know. Which is crazy. And yeah, top drawer. So this baby, the details we know about this baby, less than four years old. Yes. Acts. Fast.
Starting point is 00:07:11 Full union member. Full union member. Arrogant, fast, and stinky. No, that's Toronto. Oh, okay. She's calm and kind. Oh, that's a good quality for a kid. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:22 Cries a lot? Not at all. No. Really? Yeah. She eats, she sleeps. You know, I never thought I quality for a kid. Yeah, yeah. Cries a lot? Not at all. No. Really? Yeah. She eats. She sleeps. You know, I never thought I'd be a mom.
Starting point is 00:07:30 And it's funny. She's helped me focus. I've worked more. Huh. Life is, yeah, life is better. So you never thought you'd be a mom? Yeah, that's where I'm going. That was my question also.
Starting point is 00:07:39 What? What? Why did you never think you were a mom? No, no. I mean, like, I have maternal instincts, but I was never one of those people who was dressing up babies or, you know, like the Hunger Barbie is coming out. The Hunger Games Barbie. There is a Hunger Games Barbie.
Starting point is 00:07:53 Is there really? Yeah, it's called the Hunger Barbie. What? Insert joke. Yeah, right? Oh, I can't even think of one. Man, I'm on a real losing streak tonight. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:03 I don't have any because I... Because Barbie never gave me body issues. There, that's it. But Ken did. Oh, that perfectly parted hair. Really? Yeah, hair issues. Yeah, complete lack of genitals.
Starting point is 00:08:19 Yep, if only. Oh, so smooth. But a weird lump. Yeah, to denote that his genitals were inside, yet to drop. I was waiting. Coming soon. I was listening to a, the radio was on. I was in a waiting room. And they were talking on the radio about, they did a poll that a certain amount of men,
Starting point is 00:08:39 this is the way the radio personality framed it. He said, yeah, like, apparently 75% of men have either placed or contemplated placing a banana in a certain area. And I immediately thought, up the butt. Yeah. But he was, like, he was dancing around the issue, but he thought it was pretty obvious that he was talking about stuffing your pants. Oh. Oh, well, as soon as you said that, I thought it was, yeah that he was talking about stuffing your pants oh but oh well as soon as you said that i thought it was yeah putting a banana in your butt yeah joe's like i don't know it seems like it'd be really difficult i've almost never thought about that almost i mean you see those things where there's an x-ray of somebody who's put a cell
Starting point is 00:09:19 phone in their butt or something like that and then you start looking around the room at things like if a cell phone can, then what else possibly could? But you don't have a banana. I maybe thought about it. Seems like that wouldn't hold. I maybe thought about it when Gwen Stefani was talking about shit being bananas. Like, okay, I can picture that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:40 Gwen Stefani, literalist. But that, yeah, but that was that was, Ken doll probably, the Ken doll probably they probably made like a little banana. So you would put a banana like they were talking about, you would put a banana in your underwear and then walk around during the day with a banana?
Starting point is 00:09:58 You gotta make it look like you have a large package Yeah, would you put it in or outside your underwear? What would hold it up if it was outside your underwear? Your tight pants. Oh, you're wearing pants that are so but if they're so tight you could tell that they're like oh that guy's got a banana i can see the chiquita sticker wouldn't you pick something that wouldn't smoosh as easily like a zucchini or cucumber yeah absolutely a zucchini or something less curvy yeah some. Some girls like the curve. Well, I'm not... We are going into a different podcast here.
Starting point is 00:10:28 We're going down that road. I just mean, like, presumably it's flaccid. Right. Oh, yeah, right? Yeah, I don't... Like, it can be all kinds of shapes. I saw this puppetry of the penis play once. I think that's a play, right?
Starting point is 00:10:45 Yeah. That's what I... As far as of the penis play once. I think that's a play, right? Yeah. As far as I go, there's Shakespeare and then that. And that's all I know of theater. Yeah. Also, I think there was a hip-hopera at some point. Yeah, Carmen. Yeah. Yeah, that's weird. Of all the... I think that would probably be the last thing I would
Starting point is 00:11:01 say would be a good stand-in. What would be better? Popcorn? Just a sack of popcorn. Popcorn? Yeah, I'm just trying to think of things that would be bad. Oh, yeah. But you said anything would be better than a banana.
Starting point is 00:11:18 Yeah, I think popcorn probably would be better. With a salt chafe? With a salt chafe? Yeah. I don't know. You don't have to have it salted oh that's true and if it was buttered it'd be easier to get in and out of your pants yeah i mean maybe instead of uh you know how sometimes at the movie theaters they have those like flavored shaking powders you can put on maybe a talcum oh there you go sure so is this a new section of
Starting point is 00:11:43 stop podcasting yourself the worst things to put down your pants? It is right now. Yeah. I don't think it's going to be an ongoing thing. It's a little blue for us. It is a little blue. What's something blue that you could stuff down your pants with? Oh, Gatorade.
Starting point is 00:11:56 I think the Barbasol. Smurf figurines. A Blue Cantrell CD. The Blue Man Group Yeah Yeah Wow Well That radio DJ
Starting point is 00:12:12 Should quit his day job And go back to Stuffing school Stuffing school? Yeah Alright I always thought There was a school
Starting point is 00:12:23 Yeah yeah Well how do you think That we learned? Secrets. That's a strange... That's what they did in sex ed when girls were learning about, you know, whatever they taught. They would section off the girls, bring them into one room and, you know, teach them about, I don't know, how to... They would wheel in a mannequin wearing briefs and then they would show different things you could...
Starting point is 00:12:43 Yeah, that's what they would do on the guy's side. The girl's side, I think, was how to take your bra off inside your t-shirt. Yes, yes. Yeah, I'm trying to think, what did they do in Sex Ed? Well, they answered all the questions. I know I've talked about that in the past. No question is too stupid.
Starting point is 00:13:00 Then everyone would ask a really stupid question. Videos? Were there videos? Probably. We started sex ed early on with like, here's what people are going to try to do to you. They're going to try to kidnap you.
Starting point is 00:13:17 And then that block of time eventually became here's how you have sex. And it was boys and girls were separate. Well, no, there was a part where you were all together. And then there was a part where, because I think there was like, you'd be too embarrassed to ask a question in front of the girls. See, I went to a high school, the arts. So it was just more liberal about everything.
Starting point is 00:13:38 So our sex education wasn't segregated. And we had like Planned Parenthood came in. They gave us the class. And they gave out free condoms. It in. Whoa. They gave us the class. And they gave out free condoms. I thought you were going to say. It's totally progressive. The class. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:49 They gave us the class. Now, if you want the cure, come by the Planned Parenthood. It was called STDs in those days. No STIs. Yeah, I can't keep up with all those. I cannot. Yeah. My Subaru is an STI.
Starting point is 00:14:03 Is that right? That is a kind of. You drive a Subaru? I do drive a Subaru. an STI. Is that right? That's kind of... You drive a Subaru? I do drive a Subaru. Such a cliche. Because I'm a lesbian. So they brought in... Like Planned Parenthood came in.
Starting point is 00:14:21 Because I don't remember it being that forward-thinking in our sex ed class. I think it was really just like... Because you were in Calgary, right? Calgary? Yeah, I was in Calgary. So it was very just like, here are the bits. Don't ever rub them together. Because the only result that could ever happen was that you would have a baby.
Starting point is 00:14:46 And AIDS. Yeah, or you would get an STD. There was no sense that there was any other part of sex at all. Like, it was like, these are the two results. It's like the same as, like, don't stick a fork in an outlet. Like, there's only one or two things that'll happen. You'll ruin the outlet or you'll get electrocuted. Or both.
Starting point is 00:15:07 Yeah. So everybody was... Scared. Yeah. I should have gone to a more liberal... I don't think there was a liberal high school. Not a gallery. Probably not.
Starting point is 00:15:17 So you were talking... We glanced over theater a bit. Yeah. But you said you returned to the theater. Yeah, I had to go on withdrawal from the theater union, because when you have a baby, you can't really... Well, I chose not to. Unless you get one of those prime... Parts.
Starting point is 00:15:35 Yeah. Where the play ends at 7 p.m. Now, what does the theater union protect you from? Equity. Is that a play about a horse? It's equity. Is that a naked play? What does the theater union protect me from?
Starting point is 00:15:52 Well, when you do an equity show, there's certain rules about breaks and how long you can work. So they protect me and keep me safe when I am working. Oh, that's nice. Yeah. Nice to be looked after. That was a little too straightforward of an answer. Yeah. I don't want to get in trouble.
Starting point is 00:16:10 But I had to come out of retirement. They're very powerful. Thank you. They're very powerful. Anyway, I had to come out of retirement, and I'll probably go back into retirement. While I love theater, I get just the same hit like doing shows at Comedy Bar in Toronto.
Starting point is 00:16:24 Yeah. I did Beer Prov, which was drunken improv. And I won against all these macho boys. And I felt so like, yeah. And probably a little drunk. Yeah, a little bit drunk. So it's like my pilot light was relit. So it's not that important for me now to be doing these long eight-week runs and be away from my daughter.
Starting point is 00:16:44 Yeah. Priorities change. You didn't bring no daughter? I brought her here, yeah. Oh, okay. But it's a whole big deal. I have to bring my mom to nanny, and it's a whole coordination.
Starting point is 00:16:56 Keep going. Nanny time. Get to bed. Have a bath. Go poop. Yeah, in that order. Stop a cry. Play some jokes. Have a bath, go poop. Yeah, in that order. Stop a cry.
Starting point is 00:17:08 Play some jokes. Have a poop. Regular. Now, you were in a theater production out here that toured all over the place. Yeah. And then it stopped, and that's the theater production. That's the show I'm going back. So we're going back to Winnipeg in a couple of weeks it's called the number 14
Starting point is 00:17:27 and you just worked with the woman who made the masks and one of the creators of the show yeah at an opera show so what were you doing for the opera show oh I was doing my opera I was doing some kill the web I was emceeing an evening of um it was it was it's like a the opera does this
Starting point is 00:17:51 like free show where it's like hey they're trying to trick people into seeing opera it was none there was no offer on it well there was one guy who sang a little bit opera but also it's just like there's a lot of people who's like you guys can't afford to go to the opera. So you have like one of the best known playwrights in Canada, Peter Anderson. A very famous mask maker, Melody Anderson. One of the top 40 mask makers in the world. And then Graham Clark at an opera event. Yeah. So it starts at like 7pm.
Starting point is 00:18:20 Hot time to be. It was in a library theater room there was a lot of where was this? at the library there was a lot of it was right down the middle people who love CBC
Starting point is 00:18:37 older people that love CBC homeless people there was a lot of homeless people sprinkled in people using wifi yeah and then I think maybe some theater students or, you know, and that was
Starting point is 00:18:51 the crowd. How did it go for you? It was fine. I can adapt to all these situations. I just played to the homeless people. Cans, eh? Your brethren.
Starting point is 00:19:07 And yeah, it was fine, but he was amazing. Peter Anderson. He was amazing, yeah. He did things that... He wrote a play super quick on stage. So they did a thing. There was a group
Starting point is 00:19:22 of three improvisers that wrote a musical on stage based on suggestions from the audience. And their whole musical was about a guy with a giant mustache. And then they had to leave early to go to the next gig. And so I said another round of applause for Vancouver Theatre Sports, whatever their name was. And I was like, they would have loved to stay, but they told me they must dash, and people gave me the stink eye.
Starting point is 00:19:53 They were like, nope. But they were punning it up like crazy. And then when I did it, they were like, no. See, that's the difference. Improvisers, we get away with so much. Yeah, it was like, do it, set to music. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We get the puns, we get away with so much yeah because you know we don't have to yeah yeah yeah we get the puns we get the ridiculous you have to write material and practice it night after night i can
Starting point is 00:20:11 just go on stage and be like say exactly that and i would have gotten a huge laugh sure we just get away with that shit i don't know why well it's like they thought i had that that was my standard outro or something but i was like no remember how they were talking about mustaches? And you guys loved it. Remember how much you loved the premise of mustaches? Nope. Not even a snicker. Well, yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:36 I don't know. What? Do you think that was justified? I don't know. It just sounds like a miserable event. We have all done miserable events. Embarrassing. you're here um have you what recently have you played a miserable have you been in one of those things where you're like oh i guess i'll just adapt to this and get through it um i'm now doing corporate events
Starting point is 00:20:59 where i'm teaching levity i'm teaching levity to suits. Levity is like hovering above the ground. Well, yeah, I can do that too. It's like a ninjutsu. It's like knocking a guy out with one chopper. So I go into like big pharma companies and I tell them how to bring more humor into the workplace and use the skills of a comedian to help them in the workplace. Wow. And you know what?
Starting point is 00:21:20 I thought it would be totally hack and ridiculous and it's super fun. Is it really? Yeah, it's super fun. Is it really? Yeah, it's super fun. Sounds like it would, well, is it like, are people, is this like day three of a thing where the convention where they're all drunk? No, it's like a lunch and learn. You go in for 90 minutes, they're eating lunch. I have to actually like put on a costume of a business outfit.
Starting point is 00:21:38 Whoa, what does that look like? Do you go to the men's warehouse? No, honey. It's all like baggy. I get super styled. I go to whole Renfrew. Oh, my. Wow. No, honey. It's all like baggy. I get super styled. I go to whole Renfrew. Oh, my. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:48 I get all pimped up and then I'm, you know, back in the car changing into my jeans. So do you wear like a... Like a suit, power suit? Yeah, power suit. Pantsuit or skirt suit? Skirt suit. What? Why are you talking to me like I'm an idiot?
Starting point is 00:22:04 Is there... When you buy... When you're a lady lady who buys a suit, does it come with both ever? That would be great. Really? Yeah, and they zip off. But I mostly wear a dress with a jacket. Okay. Like a shifty office-y dress. Sure.
Starting point is 00:22:18 You work in HR. Like, you work in HR. Yeah. Yeah. But the worst gig, like, it's not the gigs, it's sort of the result of the gigs, don't you find? I find it's the gigs. Really? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:30 I mean, as long as the result is here's your check regardless of how badly you did. Yeah. Then I'm fine with it. You received a little trauma tonight. Yeah, exactly. Like it's during the gig that is. Right. My favorite one is uh someone
Starting point is 00:22:45 recognized me at a party just before i left here and they're like i know you and i'm like well i'm pretty famous and i started rattling off all the tv work i've done and they're like no no no yeah and then i started rattling whatever whatever work i've done totally and they're like no no and i started rattling all the comedy work i've done and they said no no no and then i was like well okay and then there was a pause and she said weren't you an elf in a mall yes yes yes i was an elf in a mall well you just walked in you should have just said no you probably don't recognize i know now now when i'm like i recognize you i'm like well where do you live? Maybe we buy milk. Yeah, there you go. But it was a total lesson learned. It was a Henry O story.
Starting point is 00:23:28 Yes. I'm sorry. Oh, Henry. Henry O is Sandra O's husband. Who I know from high school. Henry O? No, Sandra O did Canadian improv games. Oh.
Starting point is 00:23:43 That's where she got her start. And that's why she's in so many comedies. Right? That's where she got her start, and I did Canadian improv games. That's why she's in so many comedies. Right? That's why she's Canada's funniest lady. Are you kidding? She's hilarious. So much so that I know her as Sandy O, and she would know me as Margie.
Starting point is 00:23:56 Oh, really? That's how long ago. Wow. That sounds like some sort of breakfast foods. Sandy O's and Margie's? Sandy O's and Margie's. Yeah. That's gross. Like Margie sounds like a shortened for Margie,. Sandios and Margie's. Yeah. It's gross.
Starting point is 00:24:05 Like, Margie sounds like a shortened for Marjorin, like, pass me the Margie. Yeah. And Sandios are like Cheerios that once you pour milk on them, they just turn to sand. Oh, my God. Marjorin was, like, the stupid nickname mean people gave me. What was yours, Dave? I call you Midge. No, no, I mean my stupid nickname.
Starting point is 00:24:23 What was, like, what was it, you know? Oh, my stupid nickname for me? I don't know, something. There wasn't really anything. I believe there was probably a passing bumka. Oh, Shumka Bumka? Chump? Chumka?
Starting point is 00:24:36 Yeah, probably. Yeah. What about you? Oh, I mean every variation on Graham and Ham that you could possibly. There's a million of them. Oh, Ham Clark. Just Graham Cracker. And then every variation they're in.
Starting point is 00:24:52 And anything about Ham. And yeah. And then Clark is just kind of... Yeah. But there was endless... Because then people would shrink it down to Graham, which is not my name. But then they would rhyme it with something. So they made up how my name is pronounced wait and then oh Graham Graham and then they would like then they would rhyme it with something that my name wasn't that
Starting point is 00:25:15 thing but they rhymed it with it yeah yeah kids are really great oh like Graham Stoker's Clarkula yeah well kids are not that clever. That is really smart. Seriously, everyone called me Margarine, but not one person made fun of the fact that my name ends in ass. Yeah. It's... No one... Like, that's gold. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:38 It's what kids aren't. They're not... They're just cruel. They're not the smart side. Yeah. They're not like evil geniuses. They're just... Mean. They're just cruel they're not the smart side yeah of they're not like evil geniuses they're just mean they're just mean yeah yeah like they often like yeah like you say you have ass in your name you would think that would be the go-to yeah nope margarine margarine because kids are lazy and
Starting point is 00:25:58 yeah graham cracker at least raise raise your daughter if she's going to be making nicknames to be clever about it all right that's the least right because she's going to be making nicknames to be clever about it. All right. That's the least, right? Because she's going to do it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Every kid does it. So at least, like, up the game. All right. You know?
Starting point is 00:26:12 Yeah. The future. Mm-hmm. Right? Dave, what's going on with you? Oh, well, I've had some... The last couple of days, I've had some awkward experiences at lunch. At the Mother Corps?
Starting point is 00:26:28 No, well, outside the Mother Corps. I go for lunch at a variety of different places. Hot dog carts. Affordable eateries in my work neighborhood. Subway. Yeah. No, I haven't been to Subway in years. It's right across the street
Starting point is 00:26:45 i know right we're getting too old for so i agree we're getting into the quiz no age these are your quiz no years yeah um i went to uh i don't know which of these I should tell first. Okay, well, I'll do this one. There's a place in the neighborhood called Noodle Box, which serves noodles. What if your kid was named Noodle Box? That'd be easy to make fun of. Probably.
Starting point is 00:27:17 Are you okay? You okay? You choking? I'm not choking on the funny. It's like my boss is Chinese and she says that noodle box is racist because they serve pan-Asian food and they just say it's just noodles. Yeah. You're not going to a Japanese restaurant or a Chinese restaurant or whatever. But it's all noodles, right?
Starting point is 00:27:41 Yeah. Yeah. And every time you order, they do that thing with their fingers where they make a sign. You okay there, dear? The racism. I'm allergic to the racism. So I went to the noodle box, and I go there, like, I try not to go there more than once a week, but I go there every week. Every day.
Starting point is 00:28:10 And I ordered something to go and when they uh the guy brought it to me he said oh yeah just so you know uh the guy who cooked this is a first timer so let me know if it's not any good yeah i'll let you know by coming back tomorrow yeah so that was a weird thing to have is like i i wish he hadn't told me that the food that was cooked for me was cooked by someone who was cooking for the first time. So you're judging every bite. And it wasn't that great. It was worse than usual. It was dry. Oh, sure.
Starting point is 00:28:38 Yeah, because they don't know from wet. Even though he's wet, his food isn't. Yeah, he's wet behind the ears. So what did you do? Nothing. I'm not the guy who's going to go back and say, oh yeah, by the way, this food was kind of dry the other day. Thanks for giving me the new guy
Starting point is 00:28:55 and telling me he was the new guy. I never would have noticed. You're more Jamie Oliver than you are Gordon Ramsey. I am more Jamie Oliver. I wish that sentence had more S's in it for me to do a hilarious lisp joke. Wow.
Starting point is 00:29:12 So, yeah, because I would have maybe just said, oh, can you make it? Why don't you taste it and then make me a good one? You would never... I would have gone back.
Starting point is 00:29:27 And given that poor fresh person some pointers. But it wasn't that off. It was just, could he use more sauce? Yeah. I guess that's the pointer. But he... I wouldn't have probably noticed even. Because the quality fluctuates.
Starting point is 00:29:44 Sure. It's hard to keep a good noodle man on the job. I wouldn't have probably noticed even because, you know, the quality fluctuates. Sure. It's hard to keep a good noodle man on the job. It was just kind of jarring to say, oh, yeah, the guy who made this is a first timer. Like, I don't know if it was his first time cooking anything. Yeah, yeah. It was his first time out of prison. It was his first day out. Yeah, first day out off of his first offense.
Starting point is 00:30:03 Yeah, do you know where you can get some strange? What is that? What is that? That's having sex with a stranger, I think. Strange? I believe so. I meant tail or krill, is that it? Or noodle box.
Starting point is 00:30:15 Do you know where this guy can get some noodle box? Oh, God, why not? That sounds like female genitalia. It sounds like what happens when genitalias get together. Yeah. A noodle box? It's a noodle box. Yeah, I'll be the noodle, you be the et cetera.
Starting point is 00:30:31 That's what I learned in Calgary. Keep your noodles out of that box. Yeah, some women like the curvy noodles. Now, sometimes it's going to be a little dry. You're going to need more sun. Very blue, this episode. I'm sorry. I think it's going to be a little dry. You're going to need more sun. Oh, my God. Very blue, this episode. I'm sorry. I think it's my fault.
Starting point is 00:30:48 Okay. The next, the other weird thing. We're masters of the double entendres. I know. We're one and a half entendres. The other thing that happened at our weird lunch place was a restaurant downtown called The Chopped Leaf. Oh, yes.
Starting point is 00:31:06 I've been there. And they will give you a wrap or a salad or a soup. They will make you wait in line for it. Yeah. Well, here's what happened today is I went there. I worked basically. I was on a roll at work, so I didn't want to break and then come back. And so I didn't go for lunch until 3 o'clock
Starting point is 00:31:27 but I went there at 3 and there were people eating in there there was like 2 or 3 tables full of people and but the people that are in the kitchen area weren't there and then I walked up to the till to order
Starting point is 00:31:43 and the guy said oh we're closed right now and like i walked up he said we're closed and i said really and he said yes we're closed and so i turned on my heel and i left oh wow and then i went outside and i literally shrugged but it was so like there were people in there, and then there was some kind of commotion behind, like, in the back area where you can't see. Oh. And so I wonder if they were being robbed. Oh. Oh.
Starting point is 00:32:14 Oh. That's. Well, did you watch the news? No, I don't think robberies ever show up on the news. I think there's probably a million salad restaurant robberies a year. I'm wondering, Dave, if there's going to be one day that you're going to break. Because you're so kind
Starting point is 00:32:31 and generous and you would never say about the sauce and you would never be upset about... Oh, like do a real falling down. Yeah, like is there going to be a point where you're just going to turn over a table and kick something? Yeah, I have a lot of anger, but I do... I find that this podcast is
Starting point is 00:32:47 a bit of an outlet. If I didn't get to talk about it here, I would probably be losing my mind at the people there. But as I was leaving, I was like, should I spit on the floor as I leave? Or should I say, I'm never going back?
Starting point is 00:33:04 What did you do? No, I'm going to go back. Because I was literally like, where can I get something fresh that's tasty? Let me say. They have this wrap that's got apples and chicken in it. We were bad-mouthing Subway, but neither of these instances would have happened at a Subway. That's true. They were closed when they were obviously open.
Starting point is 00:33:26 And they wouldn't, even if it was the new guy, there'd be a supervisor checking things out. I was at a subway in St. John, New Brunswick, that was racist towards some black people in there. What? They served several white people before in the lineup. And they insisted on serving the black people. And the black people left. They took off. Yeah. Well, that, and rightly so.
Starting point is 00:33:42 Okay, yes. But is this more of a, now let's not bring down the whole subway chain Because of what happened in St. John's St. John Oh, sorry St. John's, Newfoundland, it would never happen there St. John, New Brunswick And I have to say, I also have the caveat
Starting point is 00:33:57 Of I am a bit provincialist Against New Brunswickers Explain It's a small province Yeah, like a Cinderella story against New Brunswickers. Explain. It's a small province. Yeah, like a Cinderella story. It's a real underdog. I don't want to offend any of the New Brunswick listeners.
Starting point is 00:34:15 I have since changed my tune. Okay. How does that do you? I got family now in New Brunswick in Moncton who moved there. But whenever I'm in Moncton, I'm definitely the best looking person in Moncton. Whoa. Well, now, if you said you didn't want to say anything, that's throwing down a gauntlet. That's like.
Starting point is 00:34:32 No, no. You're a very pretty lady. Nah, nah, I'm full of shit. It's all mirrors. It's all mirrors. No, I have since now started falling in love with New Brunswick now because I'm there often. But at the time, I was a bit provincialist. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:44 That's not a word that anyone has said, and you've said it twice. Yeah. It's like racist towards a province. Towards a province. What would be the American one? Statist? Statist, probably. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:54 Are you a statist against any states? No, I'm good with all of them. Really? Is there one runt of the litter? I don't know. I've only been to a couple of them. Yeah, but by reputation, you know that West Virginia is worse than regular Virginia. I don't like to play the... Status games?
Starting point is 00:35:16 I was in South Dakota, and I was at a diner, and I was on tour, and I was desperate for vegetables. And I said, do you have any vegetables? And she said, yes, we have French fries. And I said, no, do you have any vegetables? And she said, yes, we have French fries. And she thought I was retarded because I didn't know French fries was a vegetable. And I thought she was retarded for thinking that French fries were a vegetable. It's a real Henry O story.
Starting point is 00:35:47 I'm full of Henry O stories. Abby is sort of the same way. She, like, we sometimes talk about, like, oh, do you think we could do a week of being vegetarian? And I'm pretty sure she would just eat French fries the whole time. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's what you do when you're first vegetarian. You just eat the same thing that you would eat, only the vegetarian version. Did you have a veggie, Grew?
Starting point is 00:36:14 I am a veggie, yes. Oh, really? I am Grew. Many years. Yes, many years. But you would eat like... I recall eating some cans of Chef Boyardee cheese ravioli. I'm like, well, there's no way this is any better than eating the one with meat in it.
Starting point is 00:36:30 But, you know what I mean? Like, you do. You just eat French fries and just the worst. And then eventually you graduate out of it because your body is like, oh, you're going to die. You have to switch this up a bit. Well, that's why I was going to the chopped leaf. When they told me they were closed, but they were clearly open. The thing with the chopped leaf.
Starting point is 00:36:50 Because I'm black. I told you. I've been there many times, and you can order one of their pre-existing things. It's on the menu. Or you can make one up. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But it's... can I get a suggestion from the audience
Starting point is 00:37:06 exactly you can improv a sandwich and and they're at the cash register yes and oh you boys
Starting point is 00:37:16 are good I can get you to level B at Second City Training Center that's the only improv joke there is oh except
Starting point is 00:37:23 I used to do an impression of an improviser at a job interview. Can I get an occupation? Hey, that's good on many levels. Yeah, right, right? Right. It's the Gary Larson of improv jokes. There's a cow. A lady in
Starting point is 00:37:42 cat-sized glasses. But there was, you have to order, there is an order to the way that you have to order like you have to order that it's going to be a wrap or a sandwich and then on down the line what type of vegetables what type of dressing or whatever and then in the middle the guy was i started asking me questions like do you want to add this do you want to add this? Do you want to add that? And I was like, it's already like an eight-step process. And you're like throwing in other steps that aren't, you know, like I think he thought I had a real handle on it, but I really didn't. And I ended up ordering a wrap with noodles in it.
Starting point is 00:38:20 Which, I was like, how did that happen? It's called the if you say so. Yeah. which was like how did that happen yeah it's called the if you say so yeah it had like what do you call them like chow mein noodles yeah in the wrap and then also peas
Starting point is 00:38:33 and I was like you dip it in soup you boys I think you boys are too nice you need to spend more time in Toronto to get
Starting point is 00:38:41 to get kind of arrogant and smelly just boundaries you know just like yeah no boundaries I let that guy walk all over me probably the same guy Toronto. To get kind of... Arrogant and smelly. Just boundaries, you know? Just like... Yeah. No boundaries.
Starting point is 00:38:47 I let that guy walk all over me. Probably the same guy. When I was in Toronto, I was the best looking person. It's true. Male or female. It's true. Yeah. You were.
Starting point is 00:38:57 Oh, Laurie. So, Graham, what's up with you? I just came back yesterday from Calgary. Oh, for the debate tour. Yes. No, I went back to get from Calgary. Oh, for the debate horse. Yes. No, I went back to get a refresher course in sex ed. Watch what the bull does to the cow. I'm a big fan of the debaters and I like it when you're on too.
Starting point is 00:39:17 Well, thank you. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And you've been on too. I've been on a couple of times. Okay, great. He debated the wonderful Paul F. Tompkins. Yeah, I've done a debate. And who did you debate?
Starting point is 00:39:28 Most recently? Yeah. A guy named Neil Grom. And before that? Many, many other people. Graham's been on many times. He's the protege of the debaters. The show is his mentor.
Starting point is 00:39:41 Whenever they need a hippie-esque person, I, like I was there saying, arguing to ban the rodeo and I lost, soundly. But the interesting thing
Starting point is 00:39:55 that happened at the debaters was the mayor of Calgary was in the audience and at the end of the show he came up on stage and gave
Starting point is 00:40:06 Steve Patterson a white hat Steve Patterson the host of the show the host of the debate and the white hat in Calgary is like the key to the city like the Pope has been given it and William and Kate when they were in town would he ever wear the white hat
Starting point is 00:40:23 does he already have a white hat high fives everybody high fives when they were in town. The Pope is, would he ever wear the, doesn't he already have a white hat? Come on, high fives everybody, high fives. Yeah. The Pope in a giant white cowboy hat. I would really, I would convert
Starting point is 00:40:33 just to see that. Yeah. Well, that's, that's, it's, but it's crazy because that,
Starting point is 00:40:38 I remember that as a kid being like, that was the hugest thing because anybody famous who came to town was met by the mayor and given this. And there's like a kind of repeat after me ceremony, which Steve did. It was really great. Like, it was like a part of my life I had completely forgotten.
Starting point is 00:40:59 Yeah. That all came flooding back like in that second because they make everybody in the audience scream Yahoo, and I'm like, oh, that's my whole childhood with people yelling Yahoo. And then Yahoo came out. Dot com? Well, Yahoo Serious first, then Yahoo.com. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:41:17 Yahoo Serious. The chronology of Yahoo. There's only been three. Yeah. The celebratory yell. australian hick australian star right and uh yeah where is he now who is he now yeah who is he now uh guys i don't know where he is i did you ever see young einstein yeah i didn't. I saw Reckless Kelly as well. Oh, really? Which was his... Ned Kelly story? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:47 But, like, a biopic but fun. Is Ned Kelly the Australian cowboy? He was, yeah, a bank robber, I thought. I don't know nothing about no Ned Kelly. Me neither. I don't remember. I don't think the movie was accurate. Much like Young Einstein wasn't as accurate as it could have been. Graham,
Starting point is 00:42:03 some of your social references are so like Chef Boyardee. Yeah. They're just like the kind of trashy. Yeah. That's where I dwell. Yeah. That's where my brain is most comfortable. Top five Einstein movies.
Starting point is 00:42:17 Oh, the one with Meg Ryan. Yeah, IQ. Yahoo! Series is Young Einstein. Zero others. No, IQ. Yahoo! Series is Young Einstein. Zero others. No, no. I'm not giving up on this. Baby Einstein.
Starting point is 00:42:32 Oh, thank you. Wasn't Einstein? Baby Einstein helps me have a shower. Oh, nice. Is there a... Wait, did it teach you how? Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:42 By myself. You know, you put it on. You say, hey, it on, you say, Hey, baby, me and Einstein, Mommy's having a shower. I feel like there was an Einstein in Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey. Oh. I feel like that's a definite possibility. Okay.
Starting point is 00:42:59 Was Einstein maybe in A Beautiful Mind as like, Hey. Hey, Einstein. Einstein's tapping the cake. Stop going crazy. Was that at the same place? Yeah, same movie. And, oh, yeah, I think we got five.
Starting point is 00:43:17 Yeah, we did it. So that was awesome. And when I was at the theater, at the Martha Cohen Theater in Calgary, the guy who was running the show there, big fan of the podcast, a guy named James, came backstage specifically to say hi. Isn't that sweet? That's great. And bought me a drink. That's two check marks. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:40 Come say hi, buy me a drink. That's a great... If you brought a Subway sub Vegetarian For any listeners in the audience And you're all listeners actually But if you ever see Graham in the wild Those are the two things you need to do
Starting point is 00:43:53 Say hello, buy me a drink He's not hard to recognize He's very distinctive I'm wearing a giant white cowboy hat You know what you are? You're on brand Like Chef Boyardee. Anytime you see him, whatever city you're in, he's the best looking guy in it. And Graham, you stayed true like when I first met you years and years and years ago.
Starting point is 00:44:16 You are the same person. You've had more experiences. You've had more successes. Yeah. But you're staying true to who you are. I think so. What was I back then? I don't remember. I love it. Sorry, I just had more successes. Yeah. But you're staying true to who you are. I think so. I was, what was I back then? I don't remember. I love it.
Starting point is 00:44:27 Sorry, I just went on maternal on you. I don't know that anyone, it's very sweet. I don't know that anyone at our level really sells out. I just wasn't given the chance. Screw you guys. No, no, I've auditioned for Walmart. Ooh. You know, like, because I do lots of commercials, right?
Starting point is 00:44:42 But that's not, you're not not being true to yourself. What do you care of? What do you care about Walmart? I don't know. Like, okay, commercials are what helps me work as a writer, right? Yeah. I'm in commercials. But I do have to have these sort of moral dilemmas of products that I sometimes don't believe in.
Starting point is 00:44:59 However, I would be happy to be on TV to sell their product. You know what I mean? You make it sound like it's so easy to get a commercial. Is it? For her. What do you got that others don't got? Or can you give any tips? Okay, well, well.
Starting point is 00:45:11 What do I got that others don't got? The look. Slam and bomb. No, no, no. No, no, no, no. I'm like an accessible level of hotness. Okay. I'm not like overly hot.
Starting point is 00:45:21 I'm just- Not a New Brunswick. I'm regular hot. You're inaccessible. So that they can put me with a younger guy or an older guy and it seems like,
Starting point is 00:45:27 oh yeah, she would be married to any of them. Yeah, she would marry any age. And Second City, right? I'm on faculty
Starting point is 00:45:33 at Second City in Toronto and all the Toronto casting directors for commercials want you to have Second City. So going in there and saying,
Starting point is 00:45:41 them saying, do you have Second City training? And I get to say, no, I'm a teacher. Ah. Ah. Nice.
Starting point is 00:45:46 In your face. In your face. And that gets the commercial writers out of having to write a commercial. And once you've booked a few commercials, then they get to know you and they know you're all right and you book a few more.
Starting point is 00:45:57 Yeah, no, I teach how to audition for commercials. Wow. That's a, wow. Oh, yeah. What are the top 65 tips that you would give to someone? Top 65? Okay, I'll give you one.
Starting point is 00:46:08 The camera is the eye of a lover. It sees everything. So if you're scared or nervous, it'll see that. But that's what I am around a lover. Yeah. How close of a lover are you? Can you, like, quickly flash it? Are we back to the bananas in the pants again?
Starting point is 00:46:27 We never strayed that far from it. Yeah. There's a commercial right now that I'm obsessed with. It's a for, I don't know exactly what it's for, but it's for realtors of America. There's just two syllables in that. No, I'm talking about a different group of people. What is it? Realtor? Yeah, R-E-A-L. No, I'm talking about a different group of people. What is it?
Starting point is 00:46:46 Realtor? Yeah, R-E-A-L. What did I say? Realtors. Realtors. What a hic from reality. But it's a kid talking to his grandfather, and he's like, when I grow up, I'm going to buy a house just like this one. And the grandfather says
Starting point is 00:47:05 like just stares off into the middle distance and goes I hope so I hope so I can't stop every time now somebody asks me a question that's what's going on in my head I hope so if we're not all slaves to the Chinese
Starting point is 00:47:23 I don't know what kind of horrible future this guy's picture it's zombies because zombies are really big right now yeah absolutely

We've got a personal message that's come through. It's a few episodes ago. I can't remember the exact one. There was a birthday message sent from Leaf Nordberg to his brother...
Starting point is 00:49:06 Jameson. Jameson. It was in the Kulop episode. That's right. And this is the message because the original message told the tale of breaking a windshield. Yeah, and having to pay for it himself. That's right. That was funny.
Starting point is 00:49:18 And this is the response. This is a return happy birthday message. Happy birthday to you as well, Leaf. And congratulations on stealing my idea for your birthday present. It was amazing to get a birthday wish on my favorite podcast. However, your memory is perhaps clouded from the impact on the windshield because we both had to pay for it. Enjoy being a big stupid dumb hole, Jameson. They've got a fun relationship.
Starting point is 00:49:46 Yeah. Just as an added bonus, let's sing the French-Canadian happy birthday song. Sure. Let's all three of us do it starting now. Mon cher Elif, c'est à ton tour. No, no, no. I know the real one. I don't know the real one.

Starting point is 00:54:31 TMZ. Oh, right. We're in Canada. Yes. That Hulk Hogan had a sex tape. What? What? Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Starting point is 00:54:38 Slow down. You're glossing over this. Hulk Hobman had a sex tape. Herb Hamman. And by the way, we got so many emails about this. Yes. Graham is the guy who does Hulk Hogan news every week. You think I wasn't on the scene when this happened?
Starting point is 00:54:53 Graham found the story about Hulk Hogan and his weiner. Yeah, yeah. Like a few weeks ago. We can say banana. No, his weiner. Hulk Hogan had a quote about his weiner. He has a battery in his back that makes his wiener go up. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:07 So did you think Graham... Like in his bum hole? Well, it's not important. But people thought that I wouldn't know. Yeah, people thought you would miss that. Oh, Grant Clark. That you didn't have a Google News alert for Hulk Hogan. Please, friends.
Starting point is 00:55:19 Hovelminton. Friends listening wherever you're listening. But thanks for sending those in. Yeah, and now, I mean, Hulk Hogan, sure. He had a sex tape. And sure, he was quoted in the press as saying he doesn't even know who it could possibly be with because he's banging so many chicks at that point. What point was it? Just after his divorce from Lydia Hogan.
Starting point is 00:55:42 Dame. Dame Lydia Hogan. Dame Judith Hogan. uh so that's anyways so there's a sexy but then so that that would have been everybody was like this is going to be the biggest hulk hogan wait but like it is big news i don't think you should gloss over it just because there is something else i think we do need to examine a h Hulk Hogan sex tape and what it would be like to have sex with Hulk Hogan. Really?
Starting point is 00:56:07 Can't you just sort of... It would be like having sex with a leather couch. Apparently... You never know. He might be very tender. You can see his thong tan line. Has anyone seen the video? Is it public?
Starting point is 00:56:19 No, it's not public. Are there stills? Yes. Have you seen them? Yes. Can you forward them? Can you see his tan line? Yes. Who is seen them? Yes. Can you forward them? Can you see his tan line? Yes.
Starting point is 00:56:27 Who is shooting the video? What's the vantage point? Is it just locked up? Macho Man is there. He's on the top rope. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Listen, listen.
Starting point is 00:56:34 You never know what someone's going to be like in bed. Okay. You don't. So Hulk Hogan has this exterior that he's a tough roughy. Tough roughy. He's a tough roughy. Well, that was, yeah. That was his original name. I's a tough roughy. Tough roughy. He's a tough roughy. Well, that was, yeah, that was his original name.
Starting point is 00:56:45 I'm a tough roughy. So he might be quite different when it's just a one-on-one scenario, naked. No, he's always a one-on-one scenario. He's not in a tag team. Oh, no, but he sometimes would. You know, he would join a tag team. He was Bruce the Barber Beefcake. But, yeah, so he doesn't know who the person is He was Bruce the Barber Beefcake But yeah
Starting point is 00:57:05 So he doesn't know Who the person is Because it was filmed secretly Okay so it was just a camera Locked off in the room So somebody invited him to go wild on her To run wild on her Alchermania style
Starting point is 00:57:21 To suplex her vagina To atomic leg drop her And At atomic leg drop her labia atomic labia drop I think it's really to noodle her box he did, he noodled her box and uh you know, he's not wearing
Starting point is 00:57:36 I haven't seen the whole thing I assume he didn't rip off his shirt at the beginning you assume, but you're wrong he's not wearing a headband. So is he bald and he has clown hair around his eyes? Yeah. He's got his long blonde hair. Is he playing Metallica bass? Yeah. He's doing all of the things
Starting point is 00:57:54 that you would hope he was doing. He's hitting her with a metal chair. It's never funny. Yeah. It's her thing. He's feeding her vitamins. He's praying. Yeah. It's her thing. He's feeding her vitamins. He's praying. Yeah, he's praying for her.
Starting point is 00:58:15 Dave, you accidentally know way more about Hulk Hogan. No, there's no accident. This is a segment on the show. I know it's a segment on the show, but you really didn't want to know all these things. Just because you do. Look, just because I look like a rough tough doesn't mean... No, no, it's a tough roughy. Oh, sorry. A tough roughy. Not a rough tough.
Starting point is 00:58:31 No, I grew up with Hulk Hogan. He lived in our basement. He lived down the street. Yeah. A new boy in the neighborhood lives downstairs, and it's understood. He's there just to take good care of me. Yeah. Hulk in charge.
Starting point is 00:58:41 Sometimes I would get frustrated by how this show takes so many digressions. And then I just got over it. You just got to let it go. Look, the majority of the people who listen to the show don't listen to the show. That's true. I guess the people who get frustrated are the majority and they don't listen. Now, so that's a big sure. You're right.
Starting point is 00:59:01 Don't just gloss over it. But I feel like the everyday press. Did the video end with him glossing over it? Yeah, he glosses. That's gross big, sure. You're right. Don't just gloss over it. But I feel like the everyday press. Did the video end with him glossing over it? Yeah, he glosses. That's gross. Okay. But I feel like this is a story that we're going to follow in the weeks to come. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:14 And it's going to change. There's going to be other quotes. I'm sure the video will be leaked online. There's going to be many videos. Who's the woman? He doesn't know. Nobody knows. What do you mean he doesn't know?
Starting point is 00:59:22 You know who you sleep with. No, that's the whole thing. He was just having crazy post-divorce, having sex with everybody. It was filmed secretly. Who has time for that? Paul Cogan.
Starting point is 00:59:36 He's got a manager. But is the woman not in the video? He hasn't seen it. It was reported, hey, somebody's shopping around a sex table. But is the woman not in the video? Yeah. He hasn't seen it. That's the thing. It was reported, hey, somebody's shopping around a sex tape. And in whatever part of the video they're showing, she's not in. You can see him, but it's not...
Starting point is 00:59:55 She's on the other side. That's somewhat classy. Does he call his lover brother? Yeah. No, she calls him a Hulkamaniac. No. All of his lovers are ex calls him Hulkamaniac. No. All of his lovers are ex or current Hulkamaniac.
Starting point is 01:00:08 But in the midst of this This episode is gross. I started following Hulk Hogan on Twitter. At Hulk Hogan 403. Yeah, yeah. It had been taken. You started? You haven't been there?
Starting point is 01:00:23 No, because I would just source out my Hulk Hogan news for my many wrestling reporters. Right. Out in the field. Your Jimmy Mouth of the South's heart would call me via megaphone. Your Bobby the Brain's Heenan. Yeah. In Gorilla Monsoon. Gorilla Monsoon.
Starting point is 01:00:45 So I started following him. And within minutes of following him, he posted a tweet that said, hey, if you want to ask me anything, just tag it with pound challenge Hulk. Hashtag Hulk. Hashtag challenge Hulk. And so I just went nuts and asked him like 10 questions in a row, none of which Because I was like, this guy's not going to answer questions About this sex tape, that's all anybody's asking him So I went for the obscure
Starting point is 01:01:13 And I asked him about Last week's Hulk Hogan news story Exactly, about Newt Gingrich Using Hulk Hogan's theme song at a rally Real American by Rick Derringer Wow Good sourcing using Hulk Hogan's theme song at a rally. Real American by Rick Derringer. Wow. Good sourcing.
Starting point is 01:01:30 I did some Wikipedia-ing last week. Well, first what I did is that Hulk had written to George Foreman on Twitter and said, my girl could beat your girl any day. And I was like, that's weird. Is he talking about his daughter, Brooke? Does George Foreman have a daughter named George? He does. Georgina.
Starting point is 01:01:49 Georgina. And then he corrected it and said, I didn't mean girl, I meant grill, because I guess Hulk Hogan has a grill, and also George Foreman has a grill. Okay. So then I tweeted him saying something like Hulk Hogan's
Starting point is 01:02:04 all-girl grill or something. And then he wrote back and said, typos happen, brother. I was like, I nearly passed out. I couldn't believe. He's got time to tweet Graham back. Of course he's got time to get some Skrill on the side. So this is very important. Is this your first contact?
Starting point is 01:02:22 With Hulk Hogan? Yes. Absolutely. Oh, grand. It was great. It's like having Popeye write to you. Yes. It was insane.
Starting point is 01:02:32 No, honey. How did you feel? I really, seriously, when it happened, the room started to spin. I was like, what? Hulk Hogan just responded to me. There was a connection to. Seriously, because you make these jokes and stuff, but you're also a big fan.
Starting point is 01:02:48 You have forever. And you legitimately feel that this guy is kind of a mentor to you. Yeah. Well, that's why I take my vitamins, right? Everybody. And you pray like five times a day to Mecca.
Starting point is 01:03:02 So then that could, that should have been enough. That's some top-shelf investigative live-at-the-scene Hulk Hogan news. Yes, yes, yes. Al Capone's vault style. Yeah. And then I didn't think any more of it. And then the next day, he responded to one of the questions that I asked about the Newt Gingrich rally.
Starting point is 01:03:23 Did he respond in a tweet? He didn't, Dave. He made an entire YouTube video out of it. No. Yes. Where he talks about Newt Gingrich and how he's going to run for president. He Hulk. And he says, why would you vote for a Fig Newton
Starting point is 01:03:39 when you could have the whole enchilada? That's the take-home quote. And also he mispronounces president at one point. It says presentent. And he also puts a crown on for some reason. So you could change the history of American politics. Yeah, with one little tweet. One little tweet.
Starting point is 01:03:57 Yeah. Graham, you are more powerful than you think you are. We all are, aren't we? In our own ways? Well, no, you are. No, I'm pretty. No, I'm pretty. No, I'm pretty. I was talking to Graham.
Starting point is 01:04:08 You know I levitate. Oh, yeah, you teach levitating. Graham, that's amazing. That's a pretty good Hulk Hogan news, right? That is awesome. Yeah, so if anyone doesn't follow or read the recap blogs on MaximumFun.org, I think this week you're going to have to

Starting point is 01:08:58 Overheard. All right, so here's mine. So I'm here rehearsing for a show. I brought my beautiful daughter. So, of course, I brought my favorite nanny, which is my mom, Grandma Peggy. So we're visiting Grandma Peggy is the awesome. She's quite overqualified as a grandma.

Starting point is 01:09:46 he was bleeding from his bum so we killed him. Whoa! That's some real Shining Hotel stuff. Oh, real. And Mom, who is not a cat person, I am not a cat person,
Starting point is 01:10:01 she went, oh! She didn't know what to say. Any follow-up questions? Yeah. Oh. Oh. Was the cat, was it there the last time you visited?
Starting point is 01:10:12 Yes, yes. Smokey the Cat has been a fixture at that house forever where Smokey the Cat, Smokey the Cat, was bleeding from its bum and we killed it. Wow. I think he's oversimplifying it. A six-year-old. Or is he overcomplicating things?
Starting point is 01:10:28 This kid has seen visions. And maybe smoking the cat was just upstairs. The kid's like, oh, the cat was bleeding from his butt, so we killed it. No, don't be weird, Sebastian. Yeah, Sebastian, stop saying your weird psychic visions. No, I have to say, it's not as cool, because my last overheard, you guys don't have to remember, but was basically I was on the subway train in New York City. I was doing a show on Broadway and I heard another Broadway actor talking some gossip and smack.
Starting point is 01:10:57 Oh, yeah. So my life has changed. And smashed, actually. It's gone from like Broadway New York City gossip on the subway to... Grandma talk. Grandma talk. Grandma hour. They were both catty.
Starting point is 01:11:13 Oh, yeah. Pretty good, right? Yeah, good snap. Dave? Well, this past weekend, I had a chance to spend a lot of time with my family. Yep. And there was this picture that was of my mother with like a bunch, a group of girls from when she was probably 10 years old. And it was a birthday party.
Starting point is 01:11:37 And my mother remembered a detail from the birthday party. So this is kind of a, I guess it's not really an overheard, but it's... This is a classic overheard from the vault. A vintage. From a vintage vault. My mother told me the story of this girl at the party.
Starting point is 01:11:59 There was eggs, they were serving egg salad at the party. Why are you laughing at egg salad? Well, that's so weird. Is it a kid's party that they're serving egg salad? Yeah, it was the 10-year-old girls. Why is that funny for you, Graham? It was the 50s.
Starting point is 01:12:14 There was nothing else. It seemed like a really weird thing to have for kids. What were your alternatives then? I don't know. Maltids? You're not going to go to get a phosphate. No, but you know, like hamburgers, right?
Starting point is 01:12:32 I'm sure there was also hamburgers. Yeah, but just like eggs. Egg salad was obviously the centerpiece. Oh, man. Okay, the egg salad. Instead of being made with Miracle Whip, which apparently exists. Oh, Grif. Grif, what is funny about Miracle Whip?
Starting point is 01:12:52 Everything about this party is funny. These were squares. They were L7. Oh, I thought you meant that they were like egg salad squares. No, the people at the party were squares. All right, all right, all right. that they were like egg salad squares. No, the people at the party were squares. All right, all right, all right. Everyone in the 50s was squares. Yeah, so the egg salad was prepared without a miracle whip. Okay. So they had to use plain old, not margarine, mayonnaise. Thank you. And one of the girls ate some of this egg salad and turned to my mother and said,
Starting point is 01:13:28 It's not party egg. Oh, so even she knew that this is weird, right? No, no. Like she expected it to be a different level of egg salad? Yeah. Miracle Whip. Like she expected it to be a different level of egg salad? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:44 Miracle Whip. Egg salad was so popular at parties that mayonnaise in egg salad wouldn't do. But Miracle Whip in egg salad creates party egg. Oh, wow. Wow. And how did we get to this point where we have the internet and all this stuff? I don't know. Still people are still eating eggs at parties or how is my mother's
Starting point is 01:14:05 mind not blown every day when she goes to a modern day party and there are no egg salads I think party egg is how I got pregnant what
Starting point is 01:14:14 oh you were playing around a party egg Graham overheard you're overheard mine is partially like an over an overseen that didn't click it like i wanted it to um no like if you're at a uh a shopper's drug mart or if you're on the west coast a london drugs um or yeah it's not cross canada lugs. Right, but we have a... Let's name a drug source. Oh, sure.

Starting point is 01:15:18 write that. So, you know, you can walk through the security things and it can go off and nobody will say anything. They won't even look over to see if you're stealing merchandise. But I was trying to take a picture. They had these giant ads for their cosmetic section up at the front near the cash. What was this?
Starting point is 01:15:41 A London drug? This is a London drug. And they had these giant, like blown up photos. And one of the photos was a model. Like, she was like, I don't know what she's doing. She's like smelling a blush brush,
Starting point is 01:15:53 but she's holding it under her nose. And it looks like she's making a Hitler mustache. With mascara. So I tried to take a picture of it. And then one of the cashiers yelled at me, sir, you're not allowed to take photos in the store. So I have a picture, but it's super blurry because it's me panicking and trying to put the photo away. Can you put it on the blog? Yeah, I'll put it.
Starting point is 01:16:17 I always get that, like, I often see just, you know, whenever I see, I don't often see, but if I see something dumb or funny, I'll take a picture of it. And I'll always get super self-conscious that someone's going to yell at me. I was super embarrassed. Everybody looked at me, and it was like, I think probably at that same time, like somebody was sticking O'Henry's in their pants, like in their track pants. You mean Henry O's. Oh, slam. Sorry, better Henry O's. Oh, slam. Sorry, better luck next time. Oh, I've been burnt all night.

This one said, dump your racist BF. This is a super localized message. Yeah, or is it out to the world?
Starting point is 01:18:01 Like, hey, you're dating a racist. Dump. Yeah, get out of that situation.

Starting point is 01:29:07 party egg. Party egg. You're next over. Hi, Dave and Graham and possible guests. My name is Marie. I am calling from Las Vegas, Nevada
Starting point is 01:29:21 with an overseen. So the setup for this is I, in my neighborhood there is a dog grooming parlor called the Pink Poodle Parlor. And literally across the street there is another one called the Pink Poodle Parlor 2, P-O-O. And this morning I was driving to work and I ended up behind a truck with the big Pink Poodle Parlor 2 logo on it and their contact info. And they had four of those remembrance-type ribbon magnets on the back of the truck.
Starting point is 01:29:59 And one of them was labeled Poodle Adoption and Rescue, which I thought was pretty nice. And then the other ones were I Love My Poodle, Poodles, oh, Owned by Poodles, and then the very last one was Dog Groomers Do It With Style, which I thought was the most egregious example
Starting point is 01:30:23 of a misuse of those ribbons that I've ever seen. I didn't was the most egregious example of a misuse of those ribbons that I've ever seen. I didn't know you were allowed to do that. I didn't know you were allowed
Starting point is 01:30:31 to write what it would be on those ribbons. Oh my god, thank you, thank you. Tie a poodle ribbon around the old oak tree.
Starting point is 01:30:37 Because it's, those are supposed to just be for, you know, bringing the troops home. And, you know, we're battling a cancer, or... And the poodle is a ridiculous dog. No, they're really mostly for troops. Come on troops home. And, you know, we're battling a cancer. And the poodle is a ridiculous dog.
Starting point is 01:30:48 What, the ribbons? Pink ribbon. Brass cancer. But on the cars, I think they're generally for troops. Sure. They'll either be yellow or camouflage. But what if one of them was owned by a poodle? Yeah. Well, that's weird. This minivan... Is that for chew toys?
Starting point is 01:31:04 This minivan is owned by a poodle. I want to know if Maria has any dogs herself. Yeah. Well, here's my main thing right off the bat. That there's a poodle place and then the sequel to it is across the street. So there was no way that there was so much like overflow that they couldn't right like you would book an appointment there's no poodle emergencies maybe one is for emergencies and one is one is for people who will pay extra because they they have a poodle emergency
Starting point is 01:31:36 poodle in a pinch oh that's what would you what would you name the prequel of the poodle place like the one that's behind the floor ofle Place? Before the pink poodle. Beneath the pink poodle. Oh, no, no. Or pre-poo. Yeah. Yeah. Ooh. Yeah. Pre-poo-bescent. I'm a writer. There we go. In Vancouver
Starting point is 01:31:58 there's a bunch of consignment sporting goods stores in sort of the Dunbar UBC area called Cheapskates. Okay. And there's a Cheapskates 2, and I think there's a Cheapskates 3 and a Cheapskates Golf that all, as it just expanded its stock. Yeah, they were like, oh, no, it's a franchise.
Starting point is 01:32:20 Even though it's going to be golf, we still have to call it Cheapskates. Yeah, it's a franchise. Cheap cleats. It's a franchise that Cheap cleats. It's a franchise. They're all within a block of each other. I don't understand naming. Because it's not like you don't go to KFC 114.
Starting point is 01:32:38 You don't go to KFC. Can we talk about that? Yeah, sure. You don't go to KFC. You don't go to KFC. Even if you're not a vegetarian, don't go to KFC. It's the grossest. I remember having. But everyone gets that craving once a year.
Starting point is 01:32:48 Yeah. And then that regret. Dave, it's called pregnancy. Everyone gets pregnant once a year. It was Boston cream donuts for me. Oh, really? Yeah. I'm not a sweet tooth.
Starting point is 01:32:58 I'd rather have like olives or fine cheese. But you're a sweet uterus. Sweet uterus. I remember going through a really big Boston cream donut phase. Really? Yeah, I don't know why. Were you pregnant like I was? Well, my sex ed seemed to indicate that I might have been.
Starting point is 01:33:13 The final overheard is actually, as mentioned, an over-derempt. Right. Hi, Graham, Dave, and beautiful guest. This is Zach from Chicago calling with an over-dreamt. It was a very brief dream. I was standing in my kitchen back home from my childhood home, and with me was both of you. It was Graham's body with Dave's voice and some lady.
Starting point is 01:33:47 And you two in one body and the lady were holding a bowl and presenting it to me. And you said, look, we made a bowl of diarrhea. And I made a grossed out face. And then as if to correct me so I wouldn't made a grossed out face. And then, as if to correct me so I wouldn't be so grossed out, he said, no, we made a bowl of diarrhea.
Starting point is 01:34:14 Anyway. That seems about right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Sounds like something we'd say. You know, I have to thank Zach for calling me beautiful without even meeting me yet. He has the sixth sense. Yeah, he's really in tune with everything.
Starting point is 01:34:29 Thank you, Zach. Yeah. Because, you know, we were going to announce that our next podcast is where we make a bowl of diarrhea. Yep. It's for the Max Fundry. It's not a bowl of poo. It's a bowl of diarrhea. It's a bowl.

Have you seen the preview or the commercials for that new TV show about the guy who's in a dream and he's into reality and he doesn't know which one's a dream? And the therapist is like, you're in a dream and doesn't know. He's into reality. Oh, yeah. He doesn't know which one's a dream.
Starting point is 01:35:06 And the therapist is like, you're in a dream. And he's like, that's what the other therapist said. And he's like, I'm not good looking enough to be the lead on this show. But it would be funny if in one of them there's like a dead giveaway. He walks outside and everybody's driving in cloud cars. And he doesn't notice. Or like his elementary school principal is there. And he's like, I can't tell which one is the dream and which one is real.
Starting point is 01:35:39 He's sitting on the couch naked with the therapist. That's what the other person said. What is in your head, Graham Clark? Clouds and nudity Graham doesn't dream He doesn't even sleep Yeah, that's right I'm like a fight club Yeah
