Starting point is 00:03:54 Yeah, because you don't have $20 in the bank to get a whole bill. No, no, no, no, no. And I'm also only buying pepperoni sticks. Yeah, and you're really sweating it out. Oh, it's too much salt for my body. And I know it, but I can't stop. Do you have a
Starting point is 00:04:09 prepared speech for when they go, ooh, the 198 didn't clear and then you, oh, I was just actually just going to get the one
Starting point is 00:04:16 pepperoni stick. Oh, this isn't my bank card. Well, that explains it. As though I've stolen someone's wallet. That's my out. I'm like, oh,
Starting point is 00:04:24 this must be my stolen one. It's not helping me out at all. Let me try that code one more time. Can you check your machine, please? Because I'm pretty sure it's not me. Did you just rip the cord out of the thing? Well, I guess we'll never know. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:42 So you're new to Vancouver. You just moved here, like, you were saying, 13 months ago? Yeah, a year ago. Or a baker's dozen ago. A baker's dozen or a mother's precious 13 months. Yeah, if I was a new mom. Your time here, you're walking, you're talking, you're doing all the things. I'm learning.
Starting point is 00:05:00 I'm still being wowed. Oh, really? Yeah. What's wowed you? Oh, the mountains. Oh, sure. How they just meet the ocean like that.. Oh, really? Yeah. What's wowed you? The mountains. Oh, sure. Just meet the ocean like that.
Starting point is 00:05:07 My Lord, that's beautiful. Yeah. Everyone here, real tight bodies. Real tight. That's true. That's one thing that Dave and I both pride ourselves on. Yeah, you guys, tight. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:20 Almost too tight. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. My doctor said to loosen it up. Yeah. I'm sitting here, just trying to like, you know, match your taut. Be as tight. Your taut bodies.
Starting point is 00:05:33 Taut. That's a fun word, eh? It is. Yeah. And one that I don't think ever has been applied. No. Yeah. Well, I mean, mockingly.
Starting point is 00:05:40 Sure. But. I can do a thousand press-ups. A thousand press-ups? Yeah. What's the a thousand press-ups. A thousand press-ups? Yeah. What's the difference between press-ups and push-ups? Oh, I thought you were talking about a bodum where you press it down. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:51 That's what I can do. I can do a thousand of those in a thousand days. Over the course of a thousand cups of coffee. Yeah, you should see this guy's forearms. Huge! Bigger than his waist. And what brought you up to Vancouver? Because you were living in Toronto?
Starting point is 00:06:10 Yeah, I was in Toronto for nine years. Conquered that thing. Yeah, you just... You became the mayor. I won. And then, no, I actually moved for love. I know, I know.
Starting point is 00:06:26 I moved because my boyfriend at the time, he was an Edmonton boy, but also touring with a band. Yep, that's right. An improviser is with a musician. We're doing real well, though. Thanks for asking. Diamonds and Rockets.
Starting point is 00:06:40 Oh, Diamonds and Rockets. And Pepperoni Sticks. Yeah, it's mostly pepperoni sticks. He and his band moved out to Vancouver. So I thought I was tired of doing a long distance relationship. And I moved to join him. He did not ask me. I think he was hinting at it when he said, I'm moving to Vancouver.
Starting point is 00:07:00 I'm moving one province further away from where you are. And I said, I'll be there in June. So, I sold all my tea lights, and I moved out here. Turns out, I had too many tea lights. Tea lights are the tiny candles? It's the little tiny candles you buy, like a pack of 100 of them.
Starting point is 00:07:18 What do you sell those for? You just give them away. You just ask friends to take them, or you leave them at friends' houses, and then text them and go, Open up your cupboards. And you've left too many tea lights. It's a burden. You buy them in a big bag of 100 from Ikea. Those are the ones, yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:33 And then you forget about them and they all melt together over the summer. It becomes one giant mega candle. Yeah. Oh, hey, that's not a bad idea. No, it's a really bad idea. Think about it. Now, is a tea light a thing that you can... What are the ones that you can float in water?
Starting point is 00:07:52 Is that a tea light? Sure, but not the Ikea ones. The Ikea ones are real... They're made out of Swedish lard. They're just... Yeah, they're made out of meatball gristle. Yeah, all the 50 cent hot dogs you get at Ikea, whatever drips off those, that's what they make into the tea lights. So when you light these tea lights, does it smell like hot dogs?
Starting point is 00:08:11 That would be nice. That would be nice. It would be nice, but it would be like, you would enter the room and be like, oh, I forgot I made hot dogs. Oh, wait, I didn't make hot dogs. Just those stupid tea lights. What do you mean you forgot you made hot dogs? When is that? You know, when you put
Starting point is 00:08:27 hot dogs in a steam cooker or whatever. And then you have a stroke. You have them ready at the end of your work day. Then you catch a memento. You leave them on the bar. That would have been a great scene in Memento when he enters the room and he's like,
Starting point is 00:08:45 Did I? Did I make hot dogs? Am I a hot dog? Let me check my chest. Yeah. And it says, you are not a hot dog. That's the first thing. I picture it more like a commercial, like a man coming home from work after a long day
Starting point is 00:08:57 and be like, hey, wait a minute. I put on hot dogs this morning. They've been boiling all day. Schneiders, making your days better. Slow cook hot dogs. Slow cook hot dogs this morning. We've been boiling all day. Schneiders, making your days better. Slow cook hot dogs. Slow cook hot dogs. They're so bloated, though. Oh, they're so fat.
Starting point is 00:09:14 Like, you put a hot dog in at eight in the morning, you go off to your job at the garbage dump. And then you come home and they're all super plump. Like a canoe size you go off to your job at the fart factory oh because only people who work at a fart factory eat hot dogs right guys no that's how they got the
Starting point is 00:09:35 job at the farm by eating hot dogs that have been cooked for eight hours it's also a market that we're trying to court here yeah yeah right johnsonville brought um so yeah moved out here for love now i'm in vancouver and engaged and i'm engaged right yeah we got engaged about a month ago so now i'm a woman how uh how did he propose that was something we didn't ask oh right we were well we were in Barcelona.

And we met up a few days earlier and hung out and got this hotel. And Chris had said, I'm going to take care of the hotel. And I went, okay, good, because I'm always doing the work. Like, great. I was kind of, oh, I was not a nice woman.
Starting point is 00:10:34 And so we got into Barcelona. I was like, great, where's this hotel? And he's like, oh, I didn't write down the address. And I got really mean right away. I was like, it's hot. I'm carrying around this luggage that I keep throwing out one item every week because I overpacked. So I'm lugging around a giant luggage.

Is he really good at gymnastics? He's really good at gymnastics. He actually did gymnastics? No, it's just a natural talent he has. He can do a parallel bar? No, God no.

That's pretty good, right? A hush falls over the trampoline. Yeah. So he did this unexpected 180 spin and got down on one knee. There was a trampoline in the room.

Last week, we were driving through Kelowna, got a nice upgrade on a different hotel room, told them we just got engaged. Wow. People love love, it seems. Yeah, and we're liars. Yeah, that's true i mean you can

Everywhere you went, someone in a neck brace. What? That's what's stupid? What do you mean? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:33 And the other thing, a lot of people making out everywhere. Oh, yeah. Or as we overheard another tourist say, everyone here is getting action. They're very sensual people, right? They're always like touching and grabbing at each other. And at the beaches, everyone's they, them, the others.
Starting point is 00:14:53 Every woman is topless. Wow. And I was like, and we would go to the beaches and I went topless one day. How was that? It was really cool. Had you ever done that anywhere else? I've gone skinny dipping a bunch of times. Graham, have you ever gone skinny dipping? So many times.
Starting point is 00:15:09 Have you? Yeah. Are you liberal with your body? No, I mean. Well, it's so taut. Yeah, exactly. I have a responsibility to society. No, I don't go to the beach ever, but I've had my skinny dipping phase.
Starting point is 00:15:23 It's come and gone. But, yeah. Come and gone? Yeah, come I've had my skinny dipping phase. It's come and gone. But, yeah. Come and gone? Yeah, come on. Nobody needs to see this. I've never done it. What? Really?
Starting point is 00:15:32 Turn this podcast off right now. We are going to go find a hose. Let's go, boys. I'm just going to spray you in some stranger's yard. So is skinny dipping, sorry sorry is that a regular thing that goes on in your life or this is just a thing that's come up on several occasions i'm a montreal girl so like we're pretty you know there's a pretty showy big french influence not a lot of shaving no yeah a lot of smoking smoking at a young age yeah yeah. A lot of smoking. Smoking at a young age. Yeah. Smoking at the beach.
Starting point is 00:16:06 Smoking in the water. Smoking in the water. Smoking while skinning him. Had to learn how to hold it above water. But then also how to smoke it even if it got wet. It's so good. As long as there's an ember at the end of it. You can suck it through that wet cigarette. Yeah, so topless beach.
Starting point is 00:16:23 But if everybody's toplesspless then it doesn't matter right exactly and then you're like oh the men have to wear shirts yeah i'm actually not not in favor of that the old switcheroo because there's a lot of i feel like uh most of the guys that walk around shirtless are the guys that you're like maybe you shouldn't be there. No, I think it's mostly, it's both. It's guys who absolutely should, who absolutely have something to show off, and guys who absolutely shouldn't. It's people in the middle who don't really take off their shirt.
Starting point is 00:16:53 That's true. Even the guys who have something to show off, when they take their shirt off, you feel like, oh, we get it, you work out. Go away. It's like if they've got gardening gloves on or something, like if they look like they're about to do work or just finished work, then I'm in favor of them.
Starting point is 00:17:09 If they're a serf, then it's fine. When we were there, there were these guys walking down the beach, and I think they took the idea of European freedom a little bit too liberally. And they were wearing these like... Just walking down the beach naked. They were! No, they weren't! They were! What? But weren't! They were!
Starting point is 00:17:25 What? But they were wearing cowboy hats. Okay, yeah, that's a lot. And they were just wearing these cowboy hats, but they were like the Jack Daniels cowboy hats that for sure you got free at a bar one night because you did a shot off of a woman's belly. Yeah, you did a $20 shot.
Starting point is 00:17:39 Yep. Fools. And they were walking down the beach butt naked. And I remember... Wait, butt or buck it changes its regionalism yeah it depends on if you're referring to a gentleman's name that's buck naked or his butt yeah okay well buck was butt naked and they were just like striding down the beach but even the locals were staring at them and laughing and that's when i was like
Starting point is 00:18:03 okay cool we can laugh at these guys but it was like that's why it's my fear of skinny dipping is being laughed at well you're not parading your skinny dipping down a public beach at four in the afternoon oh i just understood the fish are gonna laugh yeah The old nudge. Yeah. Yeah. Wow. So, yeah, I've been to Autopolis Beach before, but again, I think it was one of those where it was like a half-half, and it was all elderly ladies that went to Autopolis. Good for them. Power to them, I say. It's a good study in boobs. Oh, it absolutely is.
Starting point is 00:18:43 It's a great study in boobs. Well, that's why I did my thesis on boobs. Oh, yeah. You start looking like, oh, I've never seen those ones before. Oh, look at that. Oh, they change when she lies down. Oh, those are phenomenal. As a woman, I can tell what good boobs I'm sure is also as a man.
Starting point is 00:19:03 Yeah, oh, yeah, we can't tell. No, we can't. I don't think we can. Can we? I don't know. I think we probably can tell. Real ugly boobs are like standouts, but like, you know, good boobs, you see them and you're like, well, that's noteworthy.
Starting point is 00:19:18 Well done, Mother Nature. Yeah, do make a note in the sand. Nice, nice rack. I hope she sees this. Then you draw a circle with a smaller circle in the middle. See? I had to actually focus. That's how little I know about boobs. Oh yeah, that's what a boob looks like.
Starting point is 00:19:37 Circle in circle. Gotcha. Checkmate. Real simple body part. Yeah, yeah. And yet... It baffles me Real mystery So, nude beaches and engagements
Starting point is 00:19:53 The Kevin Hatton story It's been a whirlwind a couple of months Yeah, and now I'm home in this real dump of a city, am I right? Yeah God, it's so pretty Everyone's shirts on Yeah, shirts on. No one in a neck brace.
Starting point is 00:20:08 Wait, why was everyone in a neck brace? I think probably from making out. Yeah, so much necking. Probably from turning their heads at the nude beach. Check out those guys in the Jack Daniels cowboy hat. Yowzers! I don't know why,
Starting point is 00:20:24 but it was like, every every day people in neck braces. Like maybe it's a country where there's a lot of insurance fraud. Were you there just after the running of the bulls? I don't remember, but that's not in the same place. Well, it's in Spain, right? But you don't know. Maybe these are guys that have just come back. I don't think any Spanish people do the running
Starting point is 00:20:46 of the bulls. I think that's for tourists. There's also a running of the bulls in France. What? Oh, well, everybody's doing it now. Now it's not even special anymore. Why don't we do it here then? Yeah, we should. Yeah, we should. You guys should bring that back. Oh, was it here
Starting point is 00:21:02 already? They took it from us. So you're part of the Sunday service, and you're at the Cosmic Zoo, which now actually has a sign out front that says Cosmic Zoo. Yeah, or as much as we've made fun of it. I don't know if you said it properly. Did you say it with two Ks? We said Cosmic.
Starting point is 00:21:21 Cosmic with a K backwards on the last one? Yes, we did. Cosmic Zoo. Cosmic Zoo? Oh, I K backwards on the last one? Yes. Cosmic Zoo. Cosmic Zoo? Oh, I'd love it there. I'd love it. I mean, honestly, the fact that I get to go play with these guys every Sunday night and the fact that they've like...
Starting point is 00:21:33 The Sunday service wants me to be a regular member, not just like come every once in a while, which would be a gift enough, but they want me to see them weekly. I'm the luckiest girl in the world alright I was kicked out of the Sunday School oh no you never were you were never allowed in you were kicked out what'd you do I refused to improvise

Starting point is 00:22:14 I'm looking to produce something new in this city. Yeah, because the pilot episodes, in quite a few of them, I mean, I guess the casting would, you wouldn't get the cast anyway. Well, I think James Van Der Beek though is not doing well. I think he would come. He said, I don't trust to be in Apartment 23. I think James Van Der Beek, though, is not doing well. I think he would come. He's saying they don't trust the B in Apartment 23.
Starting point is 00:22:28 He plays James Van Der Beek. He literally does. Does he really? Yeah. Oh, that's great. He's got a name that you have to embrace the mocking of. Who's doing the worst? Who's doing the best?

Starting point is 00:26:28 I hate those. And I've just been getting into it more and just running four or five times a week. Wow. At like 6.30 in the morning before it gets stiflingly hot outside. at like 6.30 in the morning before it gets stiflingly hot outside. And the biggest challenge has been to not buy a bunch of stuff. Like I'm always tempted whenever I do anything, like, oh, I better go out and get some new shorts and get some new dry fit shirts. So I've been avoiding that.
Starting point is 00:27:02 shirts. So I've been avoiding that. But the two things I've noticed are that these shoes must be completely silent because when I'm running, I come up behind people and I'm like, oh, they can hear me, right? These people can hear me. And then at the very last second, they always turn around and they're like, oh my god. Maybe you're silent. It has nothing to do with the shoes. Maybe you're a very light runner. Maybe I am. Maybe I...
Starting point is 00:27:29 But I feel like I'm breathing so loud. Like I'm not... I don't experience the runner's high or anything. It's miserable the whole time. That's good. I'm glad to hear that. Oh no, I don't like it at all. Good. I'm glad that your shoes are making you faster.
Starting point is 00:27:45 They're making me just more, not even faster, just more able to... Do you run with a knife for self-defense? Is that why people are startled when they see you coming in? Well, I wear one of those bandit masks. And I run carrying two bags with dollar signs on them. And I've got this dry fit shirt that is black and white striped. Yeah, it's Runner's World, the burglar routine. And the other thing I've noticed is that there's one house in my neighborhood where there's a guy my age out on the patio before seven in the morning smoking a cigar.
Starting point is 00:28:26 Wow. A cigar? A cigar. Well, it smells cigar-y. That's a way to start a day or finish a night. Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. It must be.
Starting point is 00:28:37 He must be a swinger who has cool parties and has crazy cool sex all night and then ends it every morning with a cigar. And no one else is invited. No. He's that cool. Yeah, he's that good.
Starting point is 00:28:50 Do you think I could get him to invite me in? He's probably thinking the same thing about you. Like, how do I get on a run with that guy? How do I get that guy to let me run with him? He's so quiet. He's so good. He's so smooth. I bet he's a guy too that could like run really really
Starting point is 00:29:06 well like even though he smokes a cigar every day he's like an awesome runner he's like one of those like english rugby right right guys that can smoke and drink all the time and he's like still the best athlete that's how i picture bill murray running like i picture that bill murray would run with a cigar yeah and like never break a sweat. Yeah, just whip the pants off of everybody. Yeah, and then look back and sigh. Yeah, before he throws a water balloon at your face. Oh, cool. You're like, he's been carrying that the whole time.
Starting point is 00:29:36 We didn't even notice it. Oh, man. That'd be great. That's impressive that you're running. It's miserable. Yeah, 6 a.m. No, 6.30. Oh, come on. Let's impressive that you're running. It's miserable. Yeah. 6 a.m. No, 6.30. Oh, come on.
Starting point is 00:29:47 Let's not split hairs at that time of day. Closer. I wake up at 6.30. Then I stretch. Oh, yeah. You gotta. Wow. But in the last few days, I cross Kingsway when I run, and that's the only traffic light
Starting point is 00:30:03 I have to cross. run and that's the only that's like the only um traffic light i have to cross and uh if i'm early enough there's no traffic but uh uh there's been traffic the last couple of days and it has just stunk there and you have to stand there in the garbage smell oh yeah it's a high time of day for garbage uh early in the morning right it's when all the garbage trucks are heading out to do their routine and there's a lot of like of Asian restaurants that have dumpsters behind them. Does it matter that they're Asian? Well, it does now, because now you're racist. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:31 Because the dumpster behind the church's chicken where I live smells god-awful, too. No, but I understand. Like, a J.J. Bean garbage isn't going to smell as bad. It's going to be like, oh, for roasters. Yeah. Mmm. Garbage roast. Mmm. A garbage roast. A garbage roast.
Starting point is 00:30:47 A raw fish garbage. Absolutely. It smells worse than... What are you running? What's your running attire? Okay. I wear these shoes. Not these ones.
Starting point is 00:30:59 Yeah, these super amazing running shoes. They're not super amazing. They're just great. Yeah. And a pair of shorts. Any shorts? Jorts? Well, athletic shorts.
Starting point is 00:31:11 Okay. And what makes an athletic short? They're made by Nike. Okay. They say Nike on the side. Yeah. I have two pairs. One has a zipper on it.
Starting point is 00:31:23 That's not made by Nike. The zipper's made by YKK. Yeah, okay. Love their work. Love their work. Why is there a zipper? What is it zipped to or from? It's just on the pocket.
Starting point is 00:31:34 Oh, a pocket. So I put my house key in there. Yeah. But in the other shorts. You should also carry a check that has your signature but not an amount in case you need to buy something. Yeah, some ID, too. Yeah. carry a check that has your signature but not an amount in case you need to buy something. Yeah, some ID, too. And the other shorts, they don't have a zipper on the pocket, so I have to have my key attached with a safety pin.
Starting point is 00:31:56 You know another way you can do it, just that you can tie the key into your laces on your shoe, and that way you don't have to carry it. What's the point of having the shoes that weigh less than a gram if you're weighing them down? I think, you know... Wait, what kind of giant... Do you have medieval
Starting point is 00:32:14 keys? How do people not hear you coming? You're like... With a bobby pin. I've got this one of those keychains that you have for, like, boat keys, so it floats.
Starting point is 00:32:30 It's huge and yellow. Why don't you just hide a key under the mat here at 133 Maple Road? What? No, don't do that! Oh. Um, because I'm always afraid that someone's gonna see me put it under the map. Mat.
Starting point is 00:32:47 Anyway, but we've only got as far as my shorts. Oh, I assumed that was it. I assumed that was the end of the story. I thought this was a Spanish outfit. Old prudish Dave over here now. Cover it up. And then I will wear a shirt. A teed shirt. Excuse me? Like a t-shirt.
Starting point is 00:33:03 Oh, a t-shirt. Oh, I thought you meant like you soak it in tea to make it look old. Right? Like a map. I have a very... You know what I'm talking about? It's giving me my wedding decor
Starting point is 00:33:13 so everyone's going to have teed shirts. So it looks like you all just like drowned on a pirate ship or something? It's my day. It's my day. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:22 Everybody puts seaweed in your hair. How do you make that? You dip them in tea? In tea. Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. It's my day. Everybody puts seaweed in your hair. How do you make that? You dip them in tea? In tea. Yeah. To age things. And then you put it in the oven.
Starting point is 00:33:31 Yeah, in the oven. Yeah. That's what we did. Or, like, maybe with vinegar, I think. To make it, you know, smell bad. It's a regional thing. I feel like you should buy some of these, like, dry wick shirts for your running. Like, if you're taking it this seriously.
Starting point is 00:33:46 Oh, the shirts that I wear. Like, I wear the shirt from my old university, and I wear it inside out because I'm a little bit, like, a little bit embarrassed. And I also don't want to end up, like, in a conversation with someone from my class. He doesn't want to run into a Yale man. Yeah. And get shot. Yeah yeah no pretentious runner um uh but uh yeah uh no the t-shirts are fine i think although they end up soaked they are gross i'm a gross like and one of the reasons i i'm i'm running is especially in the
Starting point is 00:34:22 summer i'm like in my head i'm like oh if I get a good sweat early in the morning, maybe I won't sweat throughout the day. How's that working out for you? Not at all. It just means I start sweating early. It just means that the coal fire is burning. Yeah, I get into the shower and I dry myself
Starting point is 00:34:40 off from the shower and then I'm wet still. Wait. You look like such a smart man. Like, this is your logic. Like, I know. I'll get the sweat out of my system now. And then my body won't have anything left. Your body can only sweat so much a day.
Starting point is 00:34:57 Yeah. And then I won't have a wet upper thigh. Perfect. Because that's where I sweat. In case anyone's listening at home, my sweating parts are my upper thigh, lower back. Yeah. Lower back's popular.
Starting point is 00:35:09 Yeah. If you look real close, upper lip. Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm a big forehead, entire back,
Starting point is 00:35:15 entire front, and neck and legs and genitals. What's hot in there. It gets hot in that nook. Yeah. Oh boy. Yeah. And your private boy yeah and your private also extremities and fingers i think knuckles and not palms though not palms oh you should shake a lot of hands i do i do that's good that's how i got the this promotion make eye contact um so yeah that's
Starting point is 00:35:40 me running uh best shape of my life a thousand press-ups in a thousand days. Absolutely. Dave, you look fantastic. Yeah, thanks. You, Graham, how are things with you? Whatever the opposite of what you're doing, I'm doing that. Body by laziness. It's on display.
Starting point is 00:36:03 You used to run, didn't you? I did. I ran for like two years. I ran like every day. And then I just didn't. You got it out of your system. Yeah, exactly. You're only supposed to do so much running in a lifetime. Two years. So some people spread that out. They go
Starting point is 00:36:19 once a week over many, many years. Yeah, I did every day, two years and out. And you're done. You're retired. Yeah. Yeah, I did every day, two years. And out. And you're done. You're retired. Yeah. But, yeah, I ran. I trained. I went in the sun run.
Starting point is 00:36:33 I finished that. You did that? Yeah. Amazing. And then I was like, hey, I don't got anything to prove to anybody. It's not that amazing. Until you've done it, Dave. It seems hard.
Starting point is 00:36:45 I mean, it's... You come back to me when you've done it, Dave. It seems hard. I mean, it's... You come back to me when you've done it, and we'll compare notes about how amazing it is. I did it when I was ten! Oh. Wow. Okay. Well, I think back then...
Starting point is 00:36:57 This got really awkward. Did you really do it when you were ten? Yeah. Did you run it? I ran most of it. Oh, okay. It's all in the details now. Now the truth comes out.
Starting point is 00:37:06 Well, I was still 10. You're a volunteer. You're giving water. Yeah. Yeah, when you say you ran it, you mean you were running it, like the operation. I got you.
Starting point is 00:37:16 He was doing PR and marketing at 10 for the Sun Run. I mean, which is still impressive. I mean, that's cool. Yeah. I was in charge of their Twitter. Told them to get on board. They did not listen to you. Yeah. I was in charge of their Twitter. Told them to get on board. They did not listen to you.
Starting point is 00:37:28 Yeah. You were before your time. Yeah. Get on board with Twitter. That's 10-year-old me. Idiot 10-year-olds. I have speech impediments. I suffer from cute speech.
Starting point is 00:37:45 Yeah, it would be very hard to be a CEO if you had that speech impediment. I'm glad you don't run anymore. Oh, thanks. I think that's good. Thanks. I think that's really great. Yeah. My doctor and family say, maybe you should start exercising again.
Starting point is 00:38:01 Because you're looking like a fatso. Which they're not wrong.'s not true i'm sitting right next to you right now very distinguished stop it uh the summertime has been punishing i've been sweating a lot and i just read today that uh i'm going to i'm going to england uh you've just found that out you read it i just out. I can't believe it was front page of the paper. Amazing. Local man going to England. Local man going to England. Dot, dot, dot. Huge mistake.
Starting point is 00:38:31 I'm performing there on the 27th, but the headline on the province today was that their transportation system has basically collapsed under the weight of the Olympics. The Olympics, right. Yeah, so to get just a train that goes between three stations or whatever is a half hour wait, and they've got more military there than was in Afghanistan, and I'm very glad to be doing the show there, but I... Do you think they're going to find Bin Laden? Well, I hope so.
Starting point is 00:39:01 If he... He was given tickets to all the premier events. Sure. At Javelin. At Shotgun. At Bad given tickets to all the premier events. Sure. At Javelin. At Shotgun. At Badminton. Judo. Is there a judo event at the Olympics?
Starting point is 00:39:12 There is judo, yeah. Really? It's the one with the throws. It's the one with the most throws. It's the grapple martial art. They could just transition that to the Winter Olympics and just give them coats. Yeah, put them indoors. What? Put them indoors, yes. Easy solution.
Starting point is 00:39:29 They are indoors. Why bother making it a Summer Olympics? Why not put it on skates? Move it up that one extra level. Judo on skates. And then the skate could be a weapon. Yeah, absolutely. It's the grappling and jugular cut. Yeah, decapitating.
Starting point is 00:39:45 Now, your fiancé, is he competing in the gymnastics this year? No, he did not qualify. Oh, okay. Just trampoline. Because I would not let him get on a trampoline. No, he did not qualify, but yet at home. Remains agile. Keeps stretching.
Starting point is 00:40:01 We're hoping for the next two years from now. We missed out. But why are you going to London during the Olympics? Because of the Olympics? No. Quite the opposite. I was invited to be part of a festival that then is now not happening. So I'm just doing a one-night show at a place called the Comedy Cafe.
Starting point is 00:40:21 I will be there as this is released. I will be in London, sweating every part of my body to the maximum. Well, London's not going to be warmer than here. It's supposed to rain. Oh, I cannot wait just to walk around in the rain like an idiot.
Starting point is 00:40:37 I'm staying in a hostel with 18 beds per room, so an orphanage. I'm staying in an orphanage. And yeah, it's going to be hot. So that was, I didn't realize until I read the newspaper today that they're having big structural problems leading up to the Olympics.
Starting point is 00:40:59 On the tube. Yeah. Do that accent again. The tube? Yeah. That's a strong U. I cannot emphasize this enough. Mind the gap while you're there.
Starting point is 00:41:10 I'm not sure what that means. You might get sucked into the gap. Okay. But if I get sucked into the gap, you'll want me to pick up any khakis for you while I'm there. Oh, can you get the... Oh, boot cut. Classic boot cut. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, get me a classic boot cut. get the... Oh, bootcut. Classic bootcut. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:26 Oh, get me a classic bootcut. Get the light blue Madonna, Missy Elliott corduroys for me. Yes, absolutely. All of us in jeans. That was it, right? Yeah. All of us in jeans. All of us in jeans.
Starting point is 00:41:42 Wasn't everyone in jeans? I don't know. I worked there, too. My very first job was working at the Gap. Oh, wow. You should see how I fold. Yeah, did you use one of those boards? Didn't need to by the end. Could do it by eye.
Starting point is 00:41:55 Yeah, but you need to at the beginning. Yeah, sure. Everyone needs it at the beginning. And even some need it at the end. But not me. Not Caitlin Glenn Howden. I could fold by eye. You learned.
Starting point is 00:42:06 I outgrew the gap Also, they do not make pants bigger than a size 12 I went through a bit of a fat stage Could not fit into their pants Oh, and then you had to get fired Quick, I had to get fired, also known as I just stopped coming into work Really? Well, you're not allowed to not wear gap clothes while you're there
Starting point is 00:42:22 And if they don't make your size Right, and I was like, I was. So you were pantsless. For the listeners at home who want to know what my body looks like, I'm about a size 10 right now. Okay. So you guys all know. I don't know what that means. An 8'10".
Starting point is 00:42:36 And the Gap makes up to a 14. And I was pushing 14, 16 at one point, back in like 99, 2000 to maybe 2004. Yeah, but that was a different time. There was a lot of, there was, popcorn chicken was very big. Yeah, it was your freshman 15 for four years. Yeah, I graduated high school in 2000 though, so.
Starting point is 00:42:57 It turns out I ate a lot of Colonel's popcorn. Oh, yeah. I love the salt and vinegar. Absolutely. Mall popcorn. Oh, I love it. Mall pops. Had to quit the job. Got too fat. Really?
Starting point is 00:43:08 Well, that's as good a reason to quit a job as I've ever heard. I think if you get, was the gap in the mall? Yeah. I think if you get a job in a mall, you're probably going to put on weight. I got fired from Fat Farm for not being fat enough. What do you guys think about that? Get bigger. Thinner. It's because you think about that? Yet bigger. Thinner.
Starting point is 00:43:27 It's because you got that gypsy's curse. So that, I read that newspaper day. That was bothersome. And here's the thing. This was crazy. On the weekend, I was doing comedy shows. And I was hosting the shows, was talking to the audience on every show.
Starting point is 00:43:43 And there was a lady in the audience I always ask are there any vegetarians in the audience where my veggies at and she spoke up and I asked her she said I'm sort of a vegetarian and I was like does that mean you eat meat
Starting point is 00:43:59 because that means you're not and she says no I don't eat meat. But every six months I get like a real crazy like meat craving. And so I just assumed that she was going to say like, so I eat a steak or whatever. But she said, so I drink a can of beef broth. What? Ew.
Starting point is 00:44:20 Ew. Ew. A can of beef broth? Yeah. I was like, what kind of solution is that? Did she cook it? Did she warm it up? I don't, I didn't get into it.
Starting point is 00:44:28 Or maybe she just cracks it open. Glug, glug, glug, glug, glug. Like apple juice, like one triangle on one side and then the other triangle on the other. Yeah. You know those openers? Yeah, yeah. Hey, so open up apple juice. Ew, imagine her burps for like a week.
Starting point is 00:44:41 Ooh. Beef broth. I mean, of all the possible solutions to quell your meat craving, beef broth certainly would be far down the list. I could see chicken. She told this to a crowd? Yeah, she was very brave. Or drunk. Or an idiot.
Starting point is 00:44:57 And drunk on beef broth. She was having beef teenies all night. Wasted on sodium. Isn't Bloody Mary, doesn't that have beef beef broth in it no there's some no like weird gross highballs that have been i'm sure that if you go to like one of these you know one of these dumb places in like you know like gaston has these things where it's like it's just it's called like the meat bar or something and
Starting point is 00:45:22 it's just like bacons and everything so there's probably got a martini that's got, like, a dumb strip of bacon in it. Yeah, I've had a Caesar. I've had a Caesar with Clamato and bacon in it. That is clam juice. That's gross. That's a meat. Yeah, and it doesn't have, like, Worcestershire sauce in it? Worcestershire sauce.
Starting point is 00:45:43 Yeah, it's got anchovies. Anchovies, yeah. It has anchovies in it? You can if you want. Yeah, Worcestershire sauce. Yeah, it's got anchovies. It has anchovies in it? You can if you want. Worcestershire sauce. Oh, yeah. Worcestershire sauce. Do you know that most beer has fish bladders in the filtering process? I thought you said just Guinness had that.
Starting point is 00:45:57 Guinness definitely does, but a lot of beers do. Really? Wait, like they use the fish bladder to... In the filtering process, the fish bladder, they take a bunch of fish bladders and then they put them in a blender. And then they put that in the beer, I guess. This isn't that right. It sucks. It absorbs something from the beer and then they move on. No, well, they don't scoop up the fish bladder. They pour from the beer, and then they move on.
Starting point is 00:46:26 No, well, they don't scoop up the fish platter. They pour out the beer. And then the fish platters rise to the top. And then you know they're a witch. Oh, guys, this is a delight. Should we move on to overheards? Well, why don't we first take a time out for a little bit of business? I'm sorry.

Starting point is 00:51:25 Football player Racist Can't believe that's still the name of a team What if there was an expansion team In 2012 And they suggested How about Redskins How about Indians
Starting point is 00:51:39 How about Seminoles Everything is so racist Anyways this guy Adam Carriker, he's a football player. He also hosts a radio show that's called Fourth and Pain, along with somebody named Chuck Carroll, where they discuss pro wrestling and football. It's a real grunt fest. Yeah. There's probably
Starting point is 00:52:07 a lot of finished off cans of energy drink lying all over the place. They've crushed on their foreheads. According to Carriker, he got to meet Hulk Hogan at the New World Order on World Championship Wrestling.
Starting point is 00:52:30 Story stands up. Hulk Hogan asked Carriker how old he was, and he told him that he was 28. But he's not interested in becoming a wrestler because Hulk was saying that he really could be a fantastic wrestler. But the guy said, don't get any ideas. I just signed a four-year contract with the most racist team in the league. Yeah. So, yeah. So Hulk is going outside of the wrestling sphere, scouting talent, which means any tough guys out there,
Starting point is 00:53:06 your chance could be you. Just make sure you're at the malt shop drinking sodas and saying your prayers and Hulk Hogan could walk in and discover you. That's what he always says. Say your prayers and drink your sodas. Well, you weren't wrong. There is plenty of Hulk Hogan

Starting point is 01:00:28 Am I right, gymnastics? I'll ask my fiance. Now we really mean it. Overheards. Overheards. We always like to start with the guest. And that means you, Caitlin. You're the guest.
Starting point is 01:00:42 Can you do it? Are you ready? Yeah, totally. I was at the Sunday service the other week, and I hit a girl. I didn't hit a girl. Sorry. Sorry. I heard. I heard a girl. I smashed
Starting point is 01:00:54 a girl. English is only one of my first languages. Sorry, guys. Now, we've explained the Sunday service as a weekly improv show, right? Yeah, at the Cosmic Zoo. The greatest improv show in town. At the Cosmich Zoo. It certainly is. It's at the Cosmich Zoo. And I was using the washroom.
Starting point is 01:01:09 It was after the show. And a woman came in, and I was in the stall, so I was hiding, hiding, as always, as all women do when they pee. We hide. You had your feet up on the seat. I had my feet up on the seat, still peeing, though. And a woman came in the washroom,
Starting point is 01:01:22 and I could tell she was on the phone. And she went, no, no, no, yeah, no no yeah yeah and she was whispering the whole time she said no no i was uh i was i was at the wedding tonight i was just downstairs oh you didn't see me oh didn't you see me and i think she was lying about being at a wedding yeah and then she said no no i oh i was at the down oh i'm sorry i missed you yeah yeah but she was whispering on the phone in the bathroom which is just like it's a two-stall bathroom so like she didn't need to whisper but the whisper it gave away the fact that she was lying she's like yeah no no i was at the wedding tonight oh i didn't see you oh that's so weird oh man no i was there anyways i gotta get going see you later and i
Starting point is 01:02:08 was like oh this girl totally ditched out on a wedding yeah and then just pretended to be there by being like oh i was sitting on the veranda the whole time and like wow but yeah and lied about it in a bathroom yeah which is the dirtiest place to lie. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's where secrets should go, right? Yeah, exactly. Always tell a secret in a bathroom. We, uh, when I was a kid... Good rule of thumb. When I was a kid, we had to go to church every Sunday. And then there were, like, maybe
Starting point is 01:02:35 five or six times in my entire life when we didn't go, but we would tell my mother, oh, we were in the balcony. Wow. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, we were in the balcony. Yeah. Did you tell it in a whisper? In a toilet? Yeah, we were in the balcony. Yeah, we, yeah, yeah, yeah. We were at the balcony. Yeah. Did you tell it in a whisper? In a toilet? Yeah, we were in the balcony. Yeah, we were in a...
Starting point is 01:02:48 Like a high-pitched whisper? Oh, yeah, yeah. I'm hearing a lot of flushing in the background. What's that? Well, you know, I was at the wedding tonight, and it's like, it was by the end of the... It was around like 10.30, right? What, was she trying to hide the fact that she was in a bathroom? Well, I don't know.
Starting point is 01:03:01 I was like, why are you whispering now? You've left the noisy bar to hear someone on the phone, clearly, to get away from the noise. You should have flushed the toilet. Champagne flute. Clink with me. Clink with me. Clink with me. You should have flushed the toilet and totally blown her cover.
Starting point is 01:03:16 I should have. I know, but I was so like... Whenever I see someone lying, my instinct is to help them. And that is not a good instinct. No, wait. No, it is. Yeah, it is. Because I'm seeing someone floundering. I'm like, I got this one, guys. And that is not a good instinct. No, wait, no, it is. Because I'm seeing someone floundering, I'm like,
Starting point is 01:03:29 I got this one, guys. You're helping your fellow person get out of a sticky situation. I'm a remarkable liar. Yeah. Remarkable. Yeah, you're not even engaged, I hear. Don't trust a word I say. Don't trust a single word. That means trust is a clue. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, well done. I was never good at that thing where it was like, there are two gatekeepers.
Starting point is 01:03:47 One will always tell the truth and one will always lie. What do you ask them? You can only ask one question. You ask them, what color is my hair? And then the liar says blonde and the liar says blonde. Well, I think when you lie, you should go against that whisper instinct. It's to yell.
Starting point is 01:04:10 Oh, I was there for sure! Yeah, you've got to be very confident. Very loud. Confidence equals... Damn right I was there. And I left because I was disgusted. Because they weren't married in the proper Jedi tradition. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:29 Get a Dixieland band in the background. Like lots of trombones. Make it really flamboyant that you're angry. Lying should cost you a lot of money. You have to rent people, rent sounds, reenact the entire wedding action and be like, what? I'm still here. Yeah. I'm waving at you across the dance floor.
Starting point is 01:04:45 Don't you see me? You have to invest in time travel. Lies are hard. Or come off really dumb. I think I was at the wrong wedding. That's not bad. Because then no one's going to be mad at you for being an idiot. Because you're an idiot. If anything, they'll probably send you some sort of snack.
Starting point is 01:05:03 Ooh, like a bag of bits and bytes. Yeah, exactly. I think they'll probably send you some sort of snack. Ooh, like a bag of bits and bytes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Here you go, dummy. Dave, do you have an overheard? I do. Mine was at a grocery store.
Starting point is 01:05:17 And it wasn't very busy. And I was just leaving. And I heard one of the clerks say to one of the other clerks, it was early in the morning, and so they had time to just chat. And one of them said, oh, I've been getting really good at my signing lately. I should show you sometime. And the other clerk was like, oh, really? In my mind, I'm like, signing? And she said, yeah, I can do Viva La Vida now.
Starting point is 01:05:42 And then she started to do the Coldplay song in sign language. I used to rule the world. And she's like doing it for her co-worker, and I'm walking out. That's signing with the pressure of rhythm, too. That's not an easy feat. I thought she just had learned how to sign those three words, which would have been impressive enough. V la vida yeah see but the whole song
Starting point is 01:06:09 yeah it was uh either that will never come in handy for her unless she's on sue thomas fbi oh yeah the uh the crime solving blind woman no i always feel like it should have been called sue thomas deaf bi oh I thought it would be FBI. So yours is smarter. Deaf BI makes sense. No, but yours is catchier. Yeah, she had a hearing ear dog named Levi. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:36 What's he going to do, bark to warn her? She's deaf. This is futile. Am I right? One episode of Sue Thomas Deaf BI, it was the Christmas episode, and Sue and Levi were like... Do deaf people celebrate Christmas? Sue Thomas and Levi, her dog, were celebrating Christmas alone, and Levi opened up one of
Starting point is 01:06:57 the presents with his teeth, because he's a dog, and he opened it up and he had lifted off this, like, red sweater, And Stephen Thomas looked at him and went, Hey, Levi, I think that one's for me. No. I love that episode so much. Hey, Levi, I think that one's for me. And I was like, yep, close it on that one. Yeah, Levi, you're the worst dog ever.
Starting point is 01:07:27 You idiot dog. Yeah, you're not getting a sweater. You stupid dog. Sweaters aren't for dogs, you idiot. I like that you said they were celebrating Christmas together. Well, yeah. Well, like the dog can celebrate Christmas. Well, the dog's obviously an idiot.
Starting point is 01:07:40 He thought that she bought him a sweater. What a dumb dog. That show seemed Canadian, and I think it was probably filmed in Canada. It sure was. But I don't believe it was Canadian. I think that actress is American. Yeah, I think it was an American production, because it was set
Starting point is 01:07:56 in America. Yeah, it was maybe like a PAX show. Oh, they didn't get Marlee Matlin on that one. No. She probably guest starred. She probably played her fairy godmother. She probably passed. No. Well, she probably guest starred. She probably played her fairy godmother. She probably passed. Went, no thanks, guys. That deaf woman played a deaf woman on Curb Your Enthusiasm
Starting point is 01:08:11 at one point. That's right. Yeah. Or as you call it, Deaf Your Enthusiasm. Don't tell me, ding. Sorry. It comes across as like,
Starting point is 01:08:22 I'm sorry, my deaf person on radio sounds... I would like to apologize to our deaf listeners. I'm so sorry, everyone, for all the deaf people listening to this. But Sue Thomas FBEar was a show that my brothers would watch every week, and then they would say that instead of investigating crimes, that she would always end up making a friend.
Starting point is 01:08:40 That was the conclusion of every episode, is somehow she made a friend. It's Canadian. I was unemployed for a while, and it would just come on at the same time every day. And that's when I knew, like, I would leave the room and when I would come back into the room, I'd just leave the TV on. And it would still be, I'd come back into the room, like, during the noon hour and Sue Thomas FBI was on. And I knew that's when it was time to change the channel. The other show that was on every day was Twice in a Lifetime. Yep.
Starting point is 01:09:08 That was another, like, Guardian Angel show. Yeah, the angels. That was, I say, another Guardian Angel show. Sue Thomas, FBI, was not that at all. Levi was a hearing ear dog, Dave. He was a professional hearing ear dog. Twice in a Lifetime was you die and Al Waxman sends you back to life to
Starting point is 01:09:27 redeem yourself. I want to say it's Delta Burke but it's not Delta Burke. Della Reese? No, that was Touched by an Angel. That's what I'm thinking of. Della Reese and Touched by an Angel. Twice in a lifetime was Al Waxman. King of Kensington. Yeah, and there was another guy who was like the young angel.
Starting point is 01:09:43 Yeah, yeah. Oh, David Borgnanias. Do you have an overheard, Graham? I have an overseen. I'm doing sign language to a girl. This is an overseen that I feel like I saw it today. It was on the cover of one of those free daily newspapers. And I feel like this is a headline that a really lazy sci-fi writer would have written to portray like, we're living in a real futuristic time. Because the banner headline was, Amy Winehouse coming back as hologram?
Starting point is 01:10:23 And that feels like it would be like a little on the nose, guys. Yeah, yeah. Like, people are watching Hologram concerts in the future. That's pretty lazy. It's very Back to the Future 2. Yes, very Back to the Future 2. But I just thought... The moment when the Chicago Cubs win the World Series and they beat Miami.
Starting point is 01:10:42 They don't have a baseball squadron. Squadron. Yeah, so anyways, that just really got me. Got me in a future place. Amy Winehouse, coming back. Was there a question mark at the end of this? Yes, there was. Absolutely, yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:53 Well, I guarantee you she's not coming back as anything but a hologram. Well, seance. Oh, yeah, you're right. She might come back as a cat. I'm not on board with all these holograms coming back. Well, they never went away. Well, okay, fair enough, in our hearts.
Starting point is 01:11:09 But, you know, the Tupac at Coachella thing was like, oh, cool, YouTube video we're all going to share. But I don't want that to be the new trend of concerts. Oh, it's too late. Yeah. Really? Well, I heard that Amy Winehouse might be coming back as a holocaust. Are you sure?
Starting point is 01:11:23 Well, I've heard a rumor, let's say. It's questionable. And by rumor, you mean official press. Yeah, exactly. Literally a newspaper. Literally a newspaper, yeah. Guys, we're not the only ones that overhear things. People out there in the general world overhear them, and they can send them to us via emails at stop podcasting yourself

Starting point is 01:12:47 The three girls were grouped together on one part of the table, and the boy kind of separated from them. All of a sudden, the boy slid down towards them, put his arm around the girl closest to him, and said, Hello, ladies. Which is pretty great. For a little kid to say, pretty tough. That's great. For a little kid to say, pretty tough. That's great. See, I'm worried about, like, I think people are worried about kids, you know, being too wrapped up in technology. But then there are these moments of when they just have to be around a human and it's darling.
Starting point is 01:13:20 Yeah, it's true. Amazing. That kid, that kid's not going to have any problems in life. No, that kid's not gonna have any problems in life. No. None.

Yeah, it's the Wendy's city. It's the Wendy's city. Yeah, the two sides. Either you're a Cubs fan or a White Sox fan.
Starting point is 01:14:32 So I'm sitting at my desk at work, zoning in and out of doing work, when I overhear my fairly chunky co-worker, who sits kitty-corner from me, say the following. I mean, I can pretty much just drink Arby's sauce straight from the packet. They encourage that, Arby's. They say, cut open corner, drink quickly. When I go to an
Starting point is 01:14:54 A&W, which stands for Ambugas and Wootbue, I... Call back. I will get a call back to eight years old. I will get a side dish of uh a gravy for my fries and i'll dip the fries in the gravy and it's they're delicious and then i'm always disgusted with myself when i see how much gravy has disappeared but what is in an arby's packet
Starting point is 01:15:18 it's not a gravy it's just like a it's like an orange or red sauce yeah it's something like that it's just like a goo i'm just saying that this is gross. This is another thing that's gross. But this guy can do it because the laws allow it. And the other day I was in... And he's the coolest guy. I was in A&W, which stands for Ambigous and Whoopio. Ryan Beal would disagree.
Starting point is 01:15:37 And I had a... What does Arby's stand for? Roast beef. Yeah, and if you don't stand for roast beef you'll fall for anything um and uh the uh uh the gravy comes comes in this little container and then i saw a woman uh like an employee carry a big tray of these containers uh outside give them to raccoons and she was handing them out as samples but it wasn't
Starting point is 01:16:06 when I got out I realized she wasn't handing out gravy samples to people it was just little bits of root beer in the gravy container I think that I would like at this point to hear an Arby's anecdote from you I've never been to Arby's
Starting point is 01:16:21 I've been once when I was a kid and I was so disappointed because I thought we were going to have hamburgers. And then, man, oh, man, is that not. When it was a roast beef sandwich, you were disappointed. You worked in a mall. Tell us about Arby's. Well, not only did I work in a mall, but I worked in a French-Canadian mall. Oh, la la.
Starting point is 01:16:38 So I don't know much about Arby's, but I know a lot about gravy. Yeah, go on. It's basically like our sauce of choice in quebec like like like quebecois people love putting like gravy like i mean my god we invented poutine right like or as you people call it poutine yeah sorry sorry you people it's a lot of distance as you anglos call it poutine but we have poutine back home where it's just like, it's French fries that are double fried. Very important. You got to fry them, wait, fry them again. How long do you wait?
Starting point is 01:17:10 Not long. Okay. And you know when it's the right time. Like you light a cigarette and you eat a Joe Louis, pound a can of Coke. You're good to go. Fry them again. Then throw cheese curds on top. Yeah. You call this a poutine?
Starting point is 01:17:24 Poutine. Yeah. They call this a poutine? Poutine, yeah. They call it a Vladimir. No, but everyone is going to eat a poutine tonight and we're going to have a stomachache. Oh my God, it's going to be disgusting. Disgusting. You are a cultured bunch. Look at this French.
Starting point is 01:17:41 And it's gone. Now it's just pure mocking. Now it's mocking of our official other language here in Canada. Okay. That's just a town. He's just saying towns. I would never go to an Arby's, guys. Want to know why?
Starting point is 01:18:00 Because I'm not an idiot. You know what? Never say never. Yeah. Never say never. We go to Arby's after this? Wait, are you guys taking me to Arby's? Have you ever been somebody's slightly chunky co-worker? Oh, boy.
Starting point is 01:18:10 Have you seen me at the Fall Into the Gap? This last one comes from Anthony B. from Arizona. Hot. It's hot there right now. It's a dry heat, though. It's hot. No, not in the summertime. Oh, it's a dry heat. The other day, my mother was talking about a protest she went to.
Starting point is 01:18:28 She said, you know who I met there? Eve Ensler. When she realized I didn't know who that was, she elaborated by saying, she wrote the vagina monocles. I mean, monologues. Yay! Yay!
Starting point is 01:18:47 Ew! Yucky! Ew! Yucky! Ew! Oh, vagina monocle! Well, I lost another monocle. That's a very distinguished vagina you have there. What are you looking at there, paw? Is that an owl's vagina? Oh, is there a Mrs. Peanut?
Starting point is 01:19:06 Et cetera. Oh, I think we just did all the jokes. In addition to overheards that are written in, we also accept phone calls. If you would like to call us with your overheard, our number is 206-339-8328. Like these people have. Hey, Dave and Graham.
Starting point is 01:19:26 This is Nathan from Philadelphia calling in with an overheard. So I'm standing in line at the CVS pharmacy in the back of the store. It's a big drugstore chain in America. And it's a pretty long line, and it's not moving very quickly. And this girl and guy get in line behind me, and the girl says, well, this is a pit. And the guy says, what, like waiting in line? And she says, yeah, I don't want to wait here with everybody else.
Starting point is 01:19:54 And so she goes over to a different window at the pharmacy, one with nobody at it, and stands there until somebody comes over to talk to her. And then she immediately says, can we get a morning after pill? And then the best part was she was directed to the big long line, which they had to wait in to pay for it. And the best part is she still didn't wait because she went to go get an iced coffee while her boyfriend waited in line to pay for the morning after pill.
Starting point is 01:20:29 What is the... You're half of this problem, buddy. What's the etiquette on that? Who pays for the morning after pill? I think you put Dutch on that, don't you? Exactly. Or hopefully you apply to the Dutch government and they pay it for you. Oh yeah, those Northern Europeans.
Starting point is 01:20:45 Oh God, they'll give you it for you. Oh, yeah. Those Northern Europeans. Oh, God. They'll give you money for anything. We're forming an abortion pill club. Also, though, do you have to like... That's not what that is. I know that the morning after pill isn't an abortion pill. Please don't email me. You're like that Baptist church who goes and protests every funeral.
Starting point is 01:21:00 Oh, yeah. He's exactly like that. Yeah. God hates apps. That's a touchy thing. Like, you know, you have a great night of, like, oh, you probably drink too much, and then you bone real hard, and then you wake up in the morning just looking rough, right? Just, like, looking tough and a bit puffy.
Starting point is 01:21:15 Like, you want to go to the pharmacy with me? I could go for an iced coffee. There's a pharmacy that has the Starbucks. Do you want to go to Denny's before we get the morning after bill? Take me to the pharmacy and then we'll get breakfast. Speaking of Denny's, now, this is not a spoiler at all, but the... Speaking of Denny's. I'm saying beforehand that it's not a spoiler.
Starting point is 01:21:41 Of breakfast. Well, it is a spoiler of breakfast a break well it is a spoiler breakfast but uh the the season premiere of breaking bad the opening scene happens in a denny's and i'm like did did denny's know that they were giving over permission to be the uh the restaurant of meth dealers do you think across the country do you think that they filmed that without telling them do you think they were like a high school production yeah like we're just doing this do you think it was jackass school or like who else did like who i think denny's paid for it but like who else was like in the bidding war oh i hop oh i hop yeah so they don't care that it's the the character of their business
Starting point is 01:22:20 is being displayed as a great place for meth. Yeah, but it is. Yeah, no, I know. But do you think that they're aware of that? I think what they're saying is anyone can go to Denny's. You know? Denny's. It's for everybody. People know that.
Starting point is 01:22:33 People, like, at five in the morning on a Sunday, it'll be filled with, you know, people who are on meth. Yeah. And then four hours later, there'll be lineups of families but doesn't it surprise you that denny's knows that it seems like denny's being a place that still serves the food that they do what seems like they live in a in a bubble where nobody can penetrate and tell them you know what you're doing is awful so how do they know that it's that they're like that that that's a good crossover brand thing?
Starting point is 01:23:08 It's just, they're food for everyone, you know? They're a real populist place. So anybody can do anything. Denny's is your one-stop shop. While you wait, there's a claw machine. Absolutely. Guys, I've never been to a Denny's before. What?

I'm at the playground with my daughter, and I just overheard this group of yelling, screaming boys running around having fun, stomping on things. And one of them said, let's play freeze tag. And another one said, no, freeze tag makes people fart. And then the first kid said, no, it doesn't. And then the other kid said, well, it makes me fart.
