Hi, he's Dave Shumka.
And he's Graham Clark.
And together we host Stop Podcasting Yourself.
Woo!
Hello everybody and welcome to episode number 440 of Stop Podcasting Yourself.
My name is Graham Clark.
And with me as always is a man who has a haircut appointment tomorrow at 4.15.
Mr. Dave Shumka.
Shh, don't tell anyone.
I mean, sometime in the afternoon.
And yeah, it might be he's getting his car waxed.
You're going to get me paparazzi'd.
Oh, you know the worst time to be paparazzi'd
would be the time between when they wash your hair
and when they start cutting it.
Or even, like, the first few minutes of them cutting it
where you just look monstrous.
Or where you do not, like, does your hair stylist
do something silly to your hair just before you leave?
Put, like, some clay or something in it.
What's silly about that?
It just kind of does it like you would never do it.
Oh, no.
Because I've had that with a lot of hair dressers.
I use a different product, but she's pretty much on point.
She's on point.
Because sometimes I feel like at the end they just go crazy
and they're like, well, I'll just make a thing.
She always shaves the swear word in the back of my head.
And then you have to fill it in with sharpie when you get home well i have some of that ronco uh spray on hair a food
dehydrator yeah set it and forget it um uh what no what oh we have this joke every time because uh
uh every time she's done the haircut she shows me the back of my head
with a series of mirrors.
Yeah.
I always have to figure out
the angle.
And then I like
oh check out my neck rolls.
And I always just imagine
I'm like an NFL lineman
with all those.
With the big hot dog?
Yeah.
Well no no.
The rolls of fat
on the back of my neck.
Yeah no that's what I mean.
Like it's like
it looks like
a pack of hot dogs.
Oh well there used to be
a big hot dog they would wear around their back.
Oh, yeah, that's right.
What happened to that?
Now in the age of concussion, guys don't wear that weird flotation device anymore.
They must have realized it didn't do anything.
It probably made things much worse.
Like, your head had to go up and over the thing.
Anyway, our guest today.
Have you seen the movie Concussion?
No. Oh, they should have listened to that guy. I mean, maybe I did, but I forget. Have you seen the movie Concussion? No.
Oh, they should have listened to that guy.
I mean, maybe I did, but I forget.
I know Will Smith's in it.
Yeah.
Or.
Yeah.
A close approximation of Will Smith.
Yeah, and he was also very mad that he didn't get an Oscar nomination.
And he'll be very mad this year when he doesn't get one for Suicide Squad.

Yeah, like Dory me, but the me is silent.
Why do I say dowry?
Oh, because I think maybe the first time I saw you, you did a joke about having a dowry.
Oh, yeah.
I do still have a dowry.
We'll get to that.
Let's get to know us.
Get to know us.
Hey. Yeah, so you have a dowry i do indeed which uh uh explain to me like i don't know
what a dowry is because i kind of don't i kind of do it's what if somebody marries you if somebody
marries me they get a bunch of free shit right so. So it's like free gifts. A Ferrari. Yeah. Yeah, a gift bag.
Yeah.
They get a gift bag.
They get some swag.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's pretty good, you know.
It's kind of antiquated.
Is it?
Yeah.
Anyone anywhere marries you?
Or does it, like, is it open to the public?
Yeah.
It's a free thing.
It's open to the public.
It's called the Fatima's Clearinghouse.
No, but it's, whoever mar me, at this point, like, I'm turning 30 this year.
My family's like, I know, right?
I'm a fossil.
But they said that I can give it to anybody.
They just want me to be married.
They don't care who it is.
Oh, really?
What's in the dowry?
And are they kind of like the dowries?
It's taking up room in the house that your mother and I want to do a jacuzzi.
We've got to get all this livestock out of here.
Is it livestock?
It is.
Is it cash and land or anything?
It's 60 camels.
Whoa.
Wow.
Not even done yet, guys.
Oh, really?
A hundred goats.
Wow, boy.
And three and a half square miles of land.
Wow.
I thought you were going to say three and a half squirrels.
Yeah, three and a half squirrels.
Where's the land?
One of them's amputated from the waist down.
Where's the land?
It's in Somalia.
And are the camels already on the land or do I got to move them?
You got to move them.
So it's an extra expense.
I'm out.
Oh, yeah.
And for that reason, I'm out.
Camel's den.
Shark tank dowry.
So, but where are the camels?
Like, where are they currently?
That is a great question.
Yeah.
I think they're somewhere in Somalia, close to my family's hometown of Galacario.
Try and spell that.
Can't do it.
Okay. Okay. Yeah. G. Yeah that. Can't do it. Okay.

There's a silent
C.
Oh yes.
They throw you
off there.
Now what do
you do with
one camel let
alone more than
one camel?
Because I know
you can ride around on one. you can ride around on one.
You can ride around on one, yeah.
You can't eat a camel, can you?
Yeah, you can.
Really?
I'd be a camel.
It's gross.
What is it?
Does it have anything like a close approximation?
It's kind of like if you left chicken out in the sun too long and also it ran around
in the forest for like three weeks beforehand.
So really in shape chicken.
Yeah, really in shape chicken.
I don't think you're supposed to leave chicken out in the sun at all.
No, you're not.
Everyone that eats camel dies from salmonella poisoning.
What, in all these 60 camels, one hump, two humps?
Great question, Dave.
All two hump.
Oh, wow.
Two hump.
The better. The better one. Do you know what you call a camel with three humps? Too question, Dave. All two hump. Oh, wow. Two hump. The better.
The better one.
Do you know what you call a camel with three humps?
Too many humps.
Pregnant.
Ah, boom.
Good night.
I like a lot of camel jokes.
Yeah.
I like them.
Yeah.
It's a thing I like.
Yeah.
It's kind of your thing.
Yeah.
And these hundred goats.
Let's not listen to these ants.
Yeah.
Let's talk goats.
Are they fainting goats?
Because they're adorable.
No, but they do scream.
Screaming goats.
Screaming goats.
Oh, and they scream like humans.
They do.
Yeah.
It's very frightening.
Wow.
Oof.
But you can milk a goat.
You can.
You can eat a goat.
You can.
You can fight a goat.
You can be friends with a goat. You can feed You can eat a goat. You can. You can fight a goat. You can be friends with a goat.
You can feed tin cans to a goat.
They recycle.
Yep.
It's a very sustainable creature.
Yeah.
They're like a Ginsu knife.
Whereas I can't see what you would do with camels, aside from go on an adventure.
Yeah.
You know.
You could try and get them to stop spitting.
Yeah, they spit, right?
Do goats spit? When they feel like it. Goats are rude in their own ways. Yeah. You know. You could try and get them to stop spitting. Yeah, they spit, right? Do goats spit?
When they feel like it.
Goats are rude in their own ways.
Yeah.
Yeah, you know, they'll bite a tin can that you were.
Jose, I was eating beans out of that.
You know what else is rude?
Deer.
Deer are also rude.
Are they really?
Yeah, this one time I went to a marine land.
Wait a minute.
Wait a minute.
This story doesn't track at all.
Why are there deer in Marineland?
Great question.
No idea.
But there is.
There's a whole like little mini park of deer in Marineland.
And every summer my family would go there for like a family reunion.
And one time.
And this is in Somalia.
This is in Somalia, Marineland.
It's Somalia division.
Where is this, Ontario?
This is Ontario, yeah, Niagara Falls. And my little brother was like maybe like six months he was in a stroller he's drinking a little juice box and a deer comes like
galloping up to him we're like oh it's because we have food but he didn't he wasn't interested
in the food he went straight for my little brother's juice box and like almost bit his
hand while taking it out wow so deer watch out deer can be jerks i know it can
be real jerks well maybe they're so dumb deer yeah yeah they will walk right up to you they'll
walk right in front of your moving car yeah yeah this is true in the middle of the day the middle
of the night they don't care they they haven't learned anything about roads yet they probably
don't even have an area for them at Marineland. They just wandered in there.
And now they can't
get them to leave.
Let's make the best of this.
We're dumb.
Is this where we go?
Marineland?
We're the dumbest
of the animals.
We're out of juice boxes.
So you guys
would have a family reunion
in Niagara Falls?
Yep.
The home of Canada's
finest wax museums?
Correct.
Why Niagara Falls?
Did people live there?
Well, it was like the closest area that everyone else could get to that wasn't in Toronto.
If that makes sense.
I guess.
It was just like the center of the family radius.
Everybody's in Ontario.
Yeah.
Oh, okay.
Most of my family's in Ontario.
Because I've only been to Niagara Falls once, and it kind of spooked me.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, no, twice.
I went for my honeymoon, and then also, well, you know I'm not married anymore.
I pushed her over the falls.
Of course.
In a barrel.
She didn't live.
But she consented.
Oh, absolutely.
This was her dream.
But that's, you go, have you been to Niagara Falls?
No.
It feels like.
Like a weird tourist city.
It's like a spooky midway that's a city.
Yeah.
Yeah, I buy that.
Yeah, there's like lots of like, there's like ghost sounds coming out of buildings and there's weird things hung across the street.
It feels like the beginning of a horror movie that over there.
Yeah.
Right?
Yeah.
the street. It feels like the beginning of a horror movie over there. Yeah.
Yeah, and there's just like weird like
Ripley's Believe It or Not Museum next to
the Harry Houdini Museum next to
the, you know, all
the mysteries of the falls
then a Jack the Ripper thing and you're like
well, so you guys just, there's no
theme. There's no theme. Yeah.
I feel like the whole economy is
run on those binoculars
that you put quarters into.
Oh, yeah.
That's what those things are called.
They have a name, lookies.
Looksies.
Yeah.
Metal lookers.
Metal lookersies.
Yeah.
And also, people go on the thing, a little boat.
Oh, yeah.
They get all those ponchos.
Yeah. Oh, the poncho economy. Ponchos, a little boat. Oh, yes. They made it in the midst. They get all those ponchos. Yeah, yeah.
Oh, the poncho economy.
Ponchos are a big attraction.
Do you still go every year?
No.
No?
Since then, we've moved.
I don't know if you know, but we live in Vancouver now.
Sure.
Okay.
Yeah, no, but I haven't been since, I don't know, maybe back in 1999, a while ago.
Before the Willennium. Before the Willennium.
Before the Willennium.
Back then, did you say you went to an annual family reunion?
Oh, yeah.
Every year.
I don't think I've, I think I've gone to like three family reunions.
I don't think I've ever.
Maybe not even.
No formal family reunion.
I've been to, the closest is like a wedding.
Oh, yeah.
I go to a wedding that's
as close to close to it yeah but yeah i've my family never did family reunions and i think
even as a kid i was like i'm glad for this oh really some of my best memories are from the
family reunions like there's this one uh there's huge roller coaster at marine land that my aunt
wanted to go on with
me one time my dad too my mom looked at them both when i was like you're making a huge mistake
and so they went on the ride with me my dad was beside me my aunt's in front of me
my friend my aunt had like this huge big like african hat on that's the only way i can think
to describe it i think we're picturing. Picture it in your head,
bumpers.
She's wearing this big African hat.
There's like this huge apex
and we've just dropped
and that was the first and only
time I'd ever heard my dad swear.
He yelled, fuck!
At the same time with this simultaneous
fuck, my aunt's big African hat
just flew off her head
and then she was yelling fuck
so there was like fucks in stereo
and how old were you?
I was nine years old
nine years old sure
oh you've heard a few fucks by the time you're nine
but not from them
wow
oh man I'm just picturing that
hat flag i bet it's still there it landed on a deer's head yeah i'm the boss of everyone now
oh wow that's what a deer says now oh yeah of course um uh but yeah no more the whole family moved out here the whole crew
my immediate family yeah like my mom i'm the eldest of five kids africans don't know when
to stop having babies is that is that uh is that typical it is typical okay yeah uh too many
cousins all girls uh three girls two boys okay Okay. Close. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah.
Very close.
Yeah.
Just off by a couple.
Not much at all.
And how young is the youngest?
The youngest is 15 and I'm turning 30.
Oh, okay.
So, you know, that's 15 years apart.
Yeah.
Do you guys talk?
Do you know about Pokemon Go?
Do you know each other's names?
Oh, man. We do. We know each other's names
and we know all the Pokemon names
together. I love Pokemon Go.
You guys probably don't want to talk about it though.
No, actually we haven't had an expert on.
Oh man, let's talk
Pokemon. Because we're a little
like, did you know
Pokemon at all when it started or when it was on
TV? No. Was it on TV?
It was on TV. Was it a card game? It was Was it on TV? It was on TV. It was.
Was it a card game?
It was all of these things.
It was a video game
as well, right?
Yeah.
Was it a Yu-Gi-Oh?
It was.
Yu-Gi-Oh and Ash Ketchum
were best friends.
Because it was
a little after our time?
Yeah.
And like I was...
I feel like it was
right in the perfect time
for you.
Oh, yeah.
Right in the pocket.
How old would a Pokemon fan be at the time of, at the height of Pokemon?
What's, I think my favorite, I could listen to you saying Pokemon all day.
Okay.
A Pokeperson.
A Pokeperson.
Would be, when Pokemony Man was at his peak, what was the optimal age of a Pokey Man fan?
Anywhere between the ages of eight and Pokey Man.
Yeah.
All the way up to an adult Pokey Man.
How old were you when it came out?
Eight?
I think I was nine when it came out.
Oh, perfect.
Prime age. Yeah. Oh, perfect. Prime age.
Yeah.
Christine age.
So did you do the cards or did you just watch the show?
Oh, I did all three.
You did all of them.
Cards, game, show.
Okay.
There was only one cards and game?
Yeah.
Oh, video game.
Video game.
Born the game boy.
Did you have Pokemon sheets?
Pokemon sheets.
Did you have Pokemon curtains?
Yeah, I had Pokemon sheets, Pokemon curtains, Pokemon plates.
Oh, sure, yeah.
Did they make merchandise?
They did.
I don't think they make anything other than merchandise.
You would go, you would buy their merch at the end of the Pokemon show.
Did they ever do Pokemon on ice?
No, they didn't, but I would still do that.
Did they do Pokemon versus Superman?
So when, it's done like where there's certain rare things, right?
Like it's very hard to get some kind of card.
It is, it's true.
And then, wait, this is the other thing I think I know about Pokemon.
Pokemon. Pokemon. Yes, let's be correct here uh is that it uh they evolve or like they do they change they change shape how does that happen like i know you have to catch them all i know
that you gotta you gotta catch them all it's important you catch them in a ball catch them
in a ball right they live in the ball They live in the ball
Do they get along
In the ball
They have their own
Separate balls
They're balls within balls
One ball per
One ball per Pokemon
So like the guy
What's the
It's like I dream of Genie
But for Pokemon
Okay
Yeah
Yes
Yes
Now you're speaking my language
Who's the guy
The guy that wears the hat
That's Ash Ketchum
Ash Ketchum Ash Ketchum
oh Ketchum all
Ketchum all
you get it now
is he related to Hank Ketchum
the cartoonist
who made Dennis the Menace
is he related to that guy
I think he might be
so
you catch
and then what happens
you catch
and then release
yeah you release them back
for a while
yeah you tag them
you rehabilitate them ooh hard word while yeah you tag them you rehabilitate them
ooh hard word guys
yeah
it's okay
you got there
yeah
do they evolve
in the
in the ball
no they gotta come
out of the ball
to evolve
so you catch them
in the ball
catch them in a ball
you let them out
you carry them
to the arena
yeah
and they evolve
in the arena
Dave's getting close here.
So, and then they evolve, and then you have to, do you have to re-catch them?
Or once you've caught them once, they're yours?
Yeah, they're yours to keep.
Okay.
So do you, it seems like an awful lot of baggage.
I mean, it makes sense that it's now all contained in a phone.
When you push a little button, they're like maybe the size of a fist.
And then when you push the button in the middle, at least in the show, guys.
Okay, sure.
They're supposed to shrink down to like tiny size.
Right.
So I guess that's why.
And then you press the button.
Where do they come from?
Yeah.
The Pokemon or the balls?
The Pokemon.
Are they?
They're just creatures of the wild.
But they exist?
Yeah, I think they exist in the real world. So, yeah,
it's our world, but with Pokemon.
But with Pokemon. It's Pokemon's world.
We just live in it. We just live in it. Exactly.
Squirtle, is that a squirting
turtle? It is.
Squirtle is a Pokemon.
What is Squirtle?
Squirtle is a water-type
Pokemon. Okay, oh!
Yeah, he's the first evolution of one of the starter ones.
Land, I'm assuming.
Air.
Water.
Yeah.
Earth.
These powers combined.
Captain Pokemon.
There's all kinds of types.
There's like water, grass, fire, fighting, ground, flying, poison, bug, steel, fairy.
I could keep going forever, guys.
No, keep going.
Fudge.
Ghost, dark, fudge.
Nougat.
Peanut butter.
So when this thing came out on the phone.
Yeah.
Like, I kind of get it because somebody showed me.
So you go on your phone and you're somewhere and it knows where you are.
It does.
So you're ultimately the Pokemon that somebody is catching up in the cloud.
Have there been any, like, shooting sprees based on Pokemon Go?
Somebody got shot.
Somebody got shot, yeah.
Yeah, just like the other day.
But not a spree.
No.
Not yet.
It doesn't qualify as a spree quite yet.
Like, there hasn't been a madman who's set up a thing of, like, having them spawn all somewhere.
And then just picking people off.
A Pokestop?
Yeah.
Picking people off at a Pokestop?
Yeah.
That is correct.
Yeah, Pokestop.
And then what's a Pokegym?
That's a Pokemon gym.
That's where you go and fight to take...
Well, it varies depending on what world of Pokemon we're talking about.
What?
In the game, Pokemon Go, a gym is where you go and control it based on your Pokemon's team.
Okay.
But in the regular game and show, there's a gym leader for each gym, and you go there and fight.
And if you win against that gym leader you get a badge.
Okay. And when you get all the badges
then you're a Pokemon master.
And do you get to change
that in for a sub or something?
Yeah, you get to trade it all in after 12 for
a free sub.
Yum.
So in the app, are there
first of all, does your boyfriend play the app Are there First of all
Does your boyfriend
Play the app
No he hates it
Right okay
I was wondering
Because Abby
Does it a tiny bit
And I don't
I don't care
But yeah
Yeah
The dog will get
A couple extra walks
Exactly
That's all it is
So it knows where you are
And then it shows you
On a map
The Pokemon's over there
So you go to there.
That's what it used to be, and then they broke the game.
Why?
What happened?
Well, they took out the tracking feature.
Okay.
And then all the Pokemon people got in a huge uproar about it.
Why did they take it out?
Because people said, stop, leave me alone?
Because there were people cheating and ruined it for the rest of us.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Always the cheaters.
Yeah.
Right?
So now how does it work?
Now it doesn't work.
Oh, so it's over now?
Now you just kind of have to walk around and catch whatever Pokemon pops up at you.
Oh, well, that's like life.
Yeah.
It's more about the journey, I think, than the Pokemon.
Life is like a box of Pokemans.
Thank you.
Yeah.
It's what happens when you're busy making other plans.
Yeah.
There you go.
What's the best Pokemon?
Ooh, I have my particular favorite.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Mine is, and it has always been, Dragonite.
Dragonite.
Yeah.
Describe Dragonite.

It's made out of dragons.
Okay, so it's a dragon.

And I hear it's a load of steaming turds so
i've heard nothing about good things yeah me too really yeah i go mostly on um ain't it cool news

Who's your favorite in the Marvel world?
In the Marvel universe?
Yeah.
Daredevil.
Really?
Yeah. Old blindo. Old blindo himself. Why? universe daredevil really yeah old blindo old blindo himself uh why
why daredevil i don't know it's just uh that was the comic book run because i used to be into comic
books a lot when i was a kid and then i kind of took a break in my teen years and then in my early
20s i picked up those were your pokemon years those were my pokemon years. Those were my Pokemon years. Can only have one major focus at a time. Absolutely.
Gotta catch just one.
Yeah, just one Pokemon.
Exactly.
And then I caught on to comics again,
and there was this one run of Daredevil
that really made me like comics as an adult.
And so that was just the character
that I related to the most.
What is...
I don't really know a lot about
daredevil i know that he's blind he is blind he's a lawyer fear is he a lawyer yeah yeah he is a
lawyer matt murdoch attorney at law do people know in the comic book or in the world that he's blind
they do okay because i know they know that his his alter ego is blind
oh Matt Murdock
yeah
but they don't
do they know
that Daredevil's blind
ooh that
they do not know
only some people know
right
see that
because I would think
that then they would
connect it very
oh can you imagine
how hard it would be
A to protect your
secret identity
and B
like to also
like convince everyone
you're not blind
you're walking around just just guessing uh did
you just get a haircut it smells like freshly cut hair my fingers feel weird can i feel your face
can you just uh reconfirm how much this um dollar bill is for i don't want to overpay the cab driver.
You know who I love for no reason?
Louis Braille.
That's the guy's name.
Hey, look it up.
Yeah.
Yeah. We're on.
Everybody tweet Dave.
Look, all the French people from that time were named Louis.
Yeah.
And he got slime on him is that why
he became super good yeah he got some crazy shit in his eye that made him blind oh that made him
blind but also made him super no that he learned oh so he's like a batman he is oh i thought he
got special he got special training from this guy named Stick.
Oh, boy.
Yeah, but I mean, you know, like, the blind guy's not going to be able to like,
I'm not calling you Stick, because in his head he's picturing a guy who looks exactly like a guy named Stick.
Oh, yeah, he's picturing a stick. Exactly, he's picturing a stick.
Like a piece of wood with two eyes.
Like that bug from Bud's Life.
I was thinking of Clippy.
Clippy. So,
Clippy the paperclip
but a stick.
In this world,
as soon as
the guy can't see,
everything just becomes
a cartoon universe.
Yeah.
Have they ever done
a Clippy comic book?
Like full of clip art?
Oh no,
it looks like you
want to go on an adventure.
That's the first panel.
He's like,
hey,
he's helping someone write a letter or make a resume.
I'm sure that there was probably a comic book that came out with the software.
Here, this is for your kids.
Oh, man.
When are they going to make a Clippy movie?
I will be first in line for that.
Yeah, sure.
They made an emojis movie.
That's really happening. did yeah yeah because uh
it's about like at night when your phone is asleep oh good i want to know what more stuff
is doing when i'm asleep yeah and it's a real movie that's really also really run out of movie
ideas hey well is there a movie out right now where kevin spacey plays the voice of a
cat yeah is he a talking cat yeah yeah i think it's called talking cats they just don't even
like come up with a clever it's called talking cats yeah um yeah i don't know why i know that
but i feel like i haven't seen it on the internet somewhere it's not the secret life of pets no no
no but it is it's a live action no live action it is it's a live action movie wait who who plays
the humans in it Kevin Spacey I'm not sure who plays the humans but they're probably not like
live action humans like in the Garfield movie is it it Breckin Meyer? It might be Jason Lee.
He's always down to...
Wasn't he with the chipmunks?
Jennifer Jason Lee?
No!
She could...
Has she been in anything animated?
I'm not sure.
Has Jennifer Jason Lee been in anything animated?
Ask no one ever.
I mean, never occurred to me to ask until just now.
I'm looking at this Kevin Spacey movie, if you don't mind.
No, I don't mind at all.
Oh, yeah, go for it.
All I know is that the cat somehow saves the family from turmoil.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Inner turmoil.
Spoiler.
Just from inner turmoil?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Not any outer turmoil.
The cat only specializes in inner turmoil.
Inner turmoil.
Yeah. So. Nine turmoil. Inner turmoil. Yeah.
So.
Nine lives.
Nine lives.
Oh, that's what it's called.
Oh, and the parents, I'm guessing the parents are Jennifer Garner and a guy I've never heard of, Robbie Amell.
Hmm.
Don't know who that is.
This is going to be a big breakup.
Big breakout year.
Yeah.
So were you the only one Of your siblings
That was into the nerd
Stuff
Yeah
Yeah
Always have been
Except my littlest brother
Which is why
I probably have the
Closest connection with him
Is he the one
15 years younger
Yeah he's the one
Who's 15 years younger
And what is he like
Does he want to see
Suicide squad with me
I'll bring him over
Just for you Dave
He won't talk to you because he's super shy
cool me too yeah ideal seems like a good big brother arrangement yeah i got nothing else going
on but yeah he's the only other nerd they've always made fun of me for that like i listen
to all kinds of music where they're like exclusively rap and hip hop okay so they call any other music
I listen to
hobo music
hobo music
hobo music
why
I have no idea
what's an example
yeah
like I really like
Death Cab for Cutie
that's hobo music
well but you know
that is a pretty good example
of hobo music
but then they'd say
jazz is hobo music too
it is though
oh damn it guys
when you see a group
of jazz bows playing you're like yeah're like, yeah, those are hobos.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Those are hobos that just got their hands on an instrument somehow.
Probably stole it.
Hobo music.
Hobo music.
I mean that to me, harmonica.
Sure.
Washboard.
Squeeze box.
Squeeze box.
Absolutely.
A little bottle.
The toot toot.
Oh yeah.
Absolutely a jug.
Maybe a dog barking. The doo-doo. Oh, yeah, absolutely a jug. Maybe a dog barking.
The sound of a barrel fire.
Hay rolling along.
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, yeah, absolutely, yeah.
Classic tropes.
Any instrument being played with fingerless gloves.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Or with a top hat with the lid coming off.
The sound is just the lid coming back and on, back and on.
It's funny that, like, that still is just the definition of hobo.
Like, nobody's worn top hats at all for decades and decades.
But still, I think you're thinking of a cartoon definition of a hobo.
Because a real life hobo is just a, you know.
Regular person.
Yeah.
Just someone, you know, traveling between home and work.
I get it.
Yeah.
Listening to Def Japper's duties.
A real point A to point B type of hobo.
So they've made fun of you for not listening to exclusively hip hop?
For years.
Did you listen to any hip-hop?
I did.
I still do.
Yeah, but not enough to...
Not in their eyes.
I'm not pure.
How did you get into, if nobody else in the crew, did you have a friend in school that was...
I did.
I had friends that were into different type of music and I had the internet.
You grew up with the internet.
I grew up with the evolution of all the different types of internet.
We even had AOL at once.
Wow.
Right?
Yeah.
I guess we had the internet.
We grew up with the internet, but you couldn't really listen to music until like 2000.
Unless you had Incarta, and it would play you a sample of jazz.
Or like the music from 2001 Space Odyssey.
This is what I'm talking
about. Oh yeah.
You hear that mom? I listen to the whiz
of that CD-ROM.
You hear that?
I guess I revealed a little too much about myself.
Dave, you're supposed to be doing your homework.
I am.
You hear that, Mom?
We didn't have Encarto.
We had Grolier Encyclopedia.
Grolier? What's that?
I don't know.
Grolier, maybe? Named after Louis Grolier Encyclopedia. Grolier? What's that? I don't know. Grolier, maybe?
Grolier.
Named after Louis Grolier.
Oh, classic Frenchman.
Yeah, they had,
here's the little videos and music things I remember.
Marlon Brando's speech from Julius Caesar.
Okay.
Man, I didn't think you were going to say that.
Okay.
I know, right?
Probably Brutus' speech, I guess.
Is it Brutus or am I thinking of...
Bluto.
It's Bluto.
Bluto's speech.
It's Bluto.
Bluto says his Pokemon evolved.
From Julius Popeye.
Exactly.
And it had a video of a trapdoor spider.
Oh, so scary. as Popeye. Exactly. And it had a video of a trapdoor spider. Oh.
So scary.
And it had a video
what other
like a praying mantis
just mowing down
on some other
bug's brain.
Oh yeah.
Knows about it.
Oh and
ask not what your country
can do for you.
Oh yeah.
What you can do
for your country.
You got it.
That's probably one of the top 10 speeches. Right? Oh yeah. Oh, yeah. What you can do for your country. You got it. That's probably
one of the top 10 speeches,
right?
Oh, yeah.
Of all time?
I couldn't name
the other nine.
Well,
I have a dream.
I have a dream.
Yeah.
Four score
and whatever amount
of years ago.
Gettysburg Address.
Tina,
we were all rooting for you.
How dare you?
Kanye West
and Taylor Swift.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah. Yeah. I'm going to Kanye West and Taylor Swift. Yeah. Oh,
yeah.
Yeah.
I'm gonna let you finish.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Uh,
hmm.
Oh,
the scene from Independence Day.
This will be our Independence Day.
Oh,
yeah.
Yeah,
sure.
We won't go gently
into that.
Good night.
Um,
that's it.
I'm out of speeches.
That's all I can think of.
Uh,
I had a really terrible thing
happen to me
with the spider today
oh no
oh gosh
this
this morning
there was a
I was sitting down
having my coffee
before I had to go to work
and
there was this
like giant
uh
sort of spider
sitting on the curtain
but I didn't really see it
until it started moving
it was like maybe
half the size of my hand
no
I believe it it was huge it was huge it was like maybe half the size of my hand no i believe it
it was huge it was huge it was at least this big its body was yeah it got tiny hands it's got doll
sized hands no but it was huge and i was like all right i'm gonna take care of the spider i went
over i was trying to open the door so that i can put because it's right by the patio yeah and then
as soon as i touched the curtain, it jumped on me.
Oh, man.
It landed on my chest, and I was like, ah!
And I screamed.
And then it ran under the couch, which is my couch.
Oh, it ran under the couch. Yeah, I ran under the couch.
Is it gone yet?
It ran under the couch,
which just so happens to be the couch that I sit on.
So now I'm going to take over Kevin's couch, and he has no couch anymore.
So, yeah, that couch is just abandoned.
It's a spider's couch now.
I had a spider that was in the kitchen that was enormous,
and it was so close to the door, I just put a cup over it.
It was like, I don't want to kill this thing.
Exactly.
Because it's going to leave a mess. It's so big.
So I put a cup over it, put a little
sheet of paper underneath, took it out to the garden.
A few days later, I saw
a spider the same size come in the basement.
Oh, persistent.
So I had to kill it.
You're like, I tried to tell you.
You belong to the toilet now.
There's this one spider. We were tried to tell you. Yep, you belong to the toilet now. There's this one spider.
We were all rooting for you.
You couldn't take a hint, you spider.
Yeah, there's a spider keeps building its web across the doorway to my house.
Oh, that's so annoying.
And every, like, three days in a row, I've walked through it.
The spider's fallen down the side.
Like three days in a row, I've walked through it.
The spider's fallen down the side.
And then by the time I get home, he's like,
just putting on the finishing touches.
And I walk through it again.
You'd think he'd learn his lesson by now.
I don't know. I don't know if spiders can learn lessons, though.
Spider-man can.
Responsibility.
Sure, power.
Justice.
Do you guys ever see that movie
Arachnophobia
Oh yeah
Yeah the movie
With all the spiders
It was great
Was it really
Was it so scary
It was probably
My favorite scary movie
Oh yeah
And I don't like scary movies
So that's not saying much
Yeah
But like
Is it
It's a family
Scary movie
It is
Fun
Family friendly
There's not that many family scary movies
I can't even think of another one really
There's a
Bedknobs and Broomsticks
Was that scary?
Yeah Gremlins
Yeah Gremlins
Yeah that's a good call
Goonies
Goonies
Yeah Goonies has got some spooks
Grunzleys
Grunzleys
Yeah
Grope
Gropers
Gropers
Yeah Gropleys Now these just sound like Pokemon names Grunzleys. Grunzleys. Yeah. Grope. Gropers. Gropers.
Gropleys.
Now these just sound like Pokemon names.
Yeah.
Grivelbarn.
Wasn't there, was there a thing called Ghoulies?
Yeah.
And did they come up from maybe the toilet?
Yeah. Was maybe the picture on the video box of a guy coming out of a toilet?
Oh, I never saw that one.
Yeah.
Ghoulies, I think, is a more scary version out of a toilet. Oh, I never saw that one. Yeah, Ghoulies,
I think,
is a more scary version of Gremlins.
Oh, yeah.
But after Gremlins came out,
I think there was
a thousand of these.
I loved after Gremlins.
Post-Gremlins, PG.
Well,
in this era of reboots,
come on, guys.
Yeah.
You're not going to make
either reboot
the Gremlin movie
or make a gremlins tv show
yeah
oh
can you imagine
an all female
gremlins
gremlins
yeah cause they had
the sexy gremlins
yeah
sexy
sexy lady gremlins
but then that one's a guy now
because they got
a switch
sure yeah
he's got abs
he's a sexy dude
he's got like a speedo on
or something
I want a rebooted gremlins
I never saw a gremlinlins I never saw gremlins
never?
never
really?
no
one or two?
oh I saw two
no I never saw
oh wow
gotta watch the first one
here's what I know about them
they start off as
fuzzy little cute guys
yeah
mogwais
mogwai
yep
and if you get them wet
they turn into gromlins
yeah
gromblets
pokimans
groppers if you drop them in the toilet they into gromlins. Yeah. Gromblets. Pokemans.
Gropers.
If you drop them in the toilet, they'll come up as ghoulies.
Ghoulies.
And if you feed them after midnight?
Yeah.
Yeah.
But it's always after midnight.
Always after midnight.
Like when does that wear off?
When it comes back day, yeah. Oh, yeah.
Because sunrise.
Because they can't be exposed to direct light.
Exactly. So, okay. Because they'll melt they can't be exposed to direct light. Exactly.
So, okay.
Because they'll melt.
The mogwai will?
Yeah.
Yeah.
And so he says, bright light, bright light.
Exactly.
Graham's got it.
But they know exactly when midnight is.
They've got an internal clock.
Their body clock is that good.
Their body clock is great.
It's very precise.
And then, yeah, they turn into the bad guys.
Yeah. And they're hilarious. into the bad guys. Yeah.
And they're hilarious.
They're doing jokes.
And then in the second movie, there was more like characters, right?
They were.
They had their little types of gremlins.
Yeah, there was a guy with glasses.
He's the smart one.
Yeah, there was a smart one.
And then there was one that had crazy eyes.
There was a cool guy.
There was a cool guy.
There was a pretty lady gremlin. Yeah. There was maybe smart one, and then there was one that had crazy eyes. There was a cool guy. There was a cool guy. There was a pretty lady gremlin.
Yeah.
There was maybe a guy smoking a cigar.
It was a real who's who of gremlins.
Oh, boy.
And then there was a spider gremlin.
There was.
Oh.
Yeah, it was really.
Full circle.
Yeah, I wonder.
It's been a long time since I've seen gremlins.
Yeah, I haven't seen it.
I mean, for sure.
I'll go home tonight and watch both of them.
I remember there was a Christmas movie.
Where would you watch them?
Probably on YouTube, I imagine.
Oh, you can see entire movies on YouTube.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Especially ones that are just like, it's out there anyways.
This is what I should be doing.
Well, you absolutely watch movies on YouTube.
Because I pay for cable.
And there's movie channels, but they never have movies I want to watch.
Yeah, they're all on YouTube.
They have Boglins, but not Gremlins.
Oh, sure.
Yeah, they've got Digimon, but not Pokemon.
I'm over here playing with Mega Bloks, and you guys all have Lego.
I'm playing with GoBots, and you guys have got Transformers.
Yeah, Autotons.
Dave, what's going on with you?
I'm trying to find it.
What?
I wrote down a thing about...
What's going on with you?
Yeah, but you know what?
It's fine.
Here's what's going on with me.
The other night...
Dave gave a hand motion as if to say,
this will be fine.
Yeah.
The other night
I went to
our friend
Jay Arner
oh yes
oh yeah
the musician
who helps us
with our other podcast
our debut album
great podcast
thank you
hey
thank you
everybody
keep listening
he
and his band
were going out
on tour
and they did a show at a local drinkery.
Beverage Hut.
Yeah.
I love Beverage Hut.
Oh, yeah.
It's so much better than Domino's.
And they have a, it was a good show and it was busy.
Like there's a lineup outside.
There was no cover. It was just good show and it was busy. Like there's a lineup outside. There was no cover.
It was just too full.
They had people lined up outside because you couldn't get in.
And I saw some people I knew and I talked to them and I didn't hear a word anyone said.
Oh, yeah.
This is always, I've always been the thing I like the least about parties or going out to a club or anything.
I've had my hearing tested in the last couple of years.
And apparently it's fine.
But I just don't get how anyone can understand each other.
It's impossible.
I don't think anybody can.
No?
Because I remember thinking the same thing.
Like, you see other people doing it you're
like can they somehow are they doing it how do you do it i make the person speak slowly and i read
their lips how do you make someone speak slowly like a puppet i can hear you please speak slowly
oh that takes a lot of confidence it does I'm just faking my way through it.
Yeah, I think I am too.
But then sometimes this is the worst of all possible scenarios.
If somebody leans in and then they are saying it in your ear and accidentally their lip touches your ear.
Too intimate.
Even if their breath touches my ear, I don't like it.
You get the chill down your spine. Oh, man.
It's like that gremlin spider all over again.
No, I don't want to know.
Is it more gremlin or spider?
No, it's half and half.
Like split down the middle?
No, it's like a gremlin head on a spider web.
Is it a puppet or animatronic?
Or stop motion?
I think it was puppet.
Yeah, I think pretty sure it was Puppet.
Yeah.
Either way, it's all terrible.
So you had catch-up conversations with people and you didn't catch up?
I mean, at certain points I could hear certain things.
Like, I got the gist of what we were talking about.
Sure, sure.
But how is everyone in this room doing it?
Like, everyone...
Yeah.
They all have earpieces.
They're all talking to each other.
Like the secret agents do.
Yeah.
Talking into sleeves.
It's a heavy man.
Telling them what to say.
Yeah.
But yes,
like every,
everyone in the room is having a conversation.
And at a certain point I just had no one else I knew, and I was standing there by myself not talking to anyone.
Right.
And I was like as happy as could be, but I felt like I looked like what a loser.
But that's like now you could just look at your phone, and then everybody goes, well, he's got something going on.
I know.
I feel like that's rude, though.
In a dimly lit place, you're adding light to it.
Oh, sure.
So this is while the band's playing, people are chitter-chattering?
No, this is sort of pre-in-between.
Right.
You know, I think I went to a concert at the Commodore maybe like a year ago.
And it was like I didn't wear earplugs and i'm too old to go to concert
without earplugs and so afterwards your head feels like you're underwater and i remember
walking down the stairs and somebody talking to me the whole time and really like by the tone i
was like well they're not mad at me but i don't know what they're talking about
it's like charlie brown talk yeah yeah um yeah i guess i don't i don't know man i don't know
what people do at shows i don't know like are we supposed to dance what do we do like do i just
kind of like pivot back and forth you pivot back and forth yeah when pivot back and forth. Yeah, you do the pivot. When you're listening to hobo music.
Yeah.
Classic hobo music dance move.
But like what, sometimes somebody will take the initiative and they'll start dancing and then you're like, well, brother, like, do people think I'm with that person?
Like, do I have to start dancing?
Do we all have to dance now?
Yeah.
Pressure.
Yeah.
Do you dance?
Oh, hell to the no.
I am not a dancer.
Even if my friends like, my friends will be like, let's go dancing.
I'm like, all right, but I'm not dancing.
I know you end up holding a lot of purses.
Yeah, I just end up watching everybody's stuff.
And it's great.
I much prefer that as opposed to the sweaty dance floor.
Yeah, it feels like more a thing that happens,
I'm guessing, with women than with men.
Like, let's go to a dance club.
Exactly.
Right, like a group of guys.
Maybe we'll go, I guess.
What do you guys want to do tonight?
Let's go to a dance club.
Yeah, just us.
Yeah.
No ladies.
Yeah, no, don't leave.
If you see a cute girl, you...
I don't want to repeat it last see a cute girl, you... Yeah.
I don't want to repeat it last time.
It's fella's night.
I don't want to repeat it last time.
Come on.
What happened last time?
Dylan met a girl.
Oh, of course.
That freaking Dylan.
We were all putting our feet in the middle to take a picture.
Take a picture of our shoes.
Oh, man.
Do you go to concerts?
I do go to concerts sometimes.
Do you know what to do at concerts? I don't know.
You know, the older I get,
the more I care less about those
things. Sure.
But sometimes you end up at a
concert. You do. And then you're like,
I don't know. I'm not sure.
If everybody's dancing around me,
I do, like Dave said, the little pivot.
Yeah, yeah.
That's the most you'll get out of me.
Maybe if they say put your hands in the air.
Do swinging of the arms.
I like what Dave's doing.
I wish you guys could see what Dave's doing.
I am not a crook.
I am not a crook.
I was talking to a friend who went to like a music festival,
just went to one day of the music festival because the cure was playing.
Ooh, yeah.
It's pronounced curate.
It's a musical coffee maker um and uh so you know there was uh everything else during the day was
like electric dance music or or some yeah young folks yeah music uh-huh and uh she was just like
i just didn't know what to do like i didn't know the dance people were doing didn't see they seemed
to kind of know what was going on, but.
Seems like a real summer goth kind of thing to do.
Oh boy.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh man.
I once went to a, we took a school trip to Calgary, like to a bunch, it was in broadcasting school.
We went to a bunch of broadcast facilities in BC and Alberta.
And one night we went to this cowboy dance club. And all of my classmates from Vancouver
knew these steps in line dancing.
Oh, really?
And I lost a lot of respect for them.
Did they remember it from grade 10 gym?
No, they knew new songs with new steps.
Oh, so they weren't just doing the boot scoot and boogie?
There was maybe some...
Maybe it's all variations on the boot scoot and boogie.
Because we had to learn line.
Did you learn line dancing?
Yeah, exactly.
We learned square dancing.
We learned square dancing and line dancing.
I opted out of line dancing.
In Ontario?
Yeah.
Wow.
And here.
My dancing was split up between two provinces.
Oh, that's a nightmare.
I know. Because you're like, well, your dancing credits from this province don't carry over. Oh, that's a nightmare. I know.
Because you're like, well, your dancing credits from this province don't carry over.
They didn't transfer.
Yeah.
So you're going to have to learn promenade here.
Yeah.
I was like, but I already know this.
It's really weird.
Is that still a thing?
Do you know?
I think so, because my younger siblings all had to learn that stuff too.
Like at least square dancing.
I knew it was like, I had heard of that stuff too. Like at least square dancing. I knew it was like,
I had heard of it.
Yeah.
But kids today
wouldn't have heard of it.
Line dancing probably, but.
Yeah, square,
it's weird that they,
because I think.
A lot of do-si-dos.
Yeah, they would teach you
square dancing.
They would teach you
like a fox,
box trot.
Yeah.
Oh, I never learned
any of that.
A box step.
Yeah.
They all had weird names.
It was weird.
We only did square dancing.
You went to school here.
Yeah.
I'm just in a box.
Yeah, it's weird.
I don't know.
It was all just an excuse, I think, for teachers to make boys and girls touch hands and watch
them freak out.
Yeah.
I think that's it.
I'm alimanting with this girl.
I mean, I think I am.
I'm Daredevil.
I'm do-si-do-ing with Lisa.
There's no touching in a do-si-do.
Yeah, that's true.
Oh, you're right.
You just put your hands around.
I haven't square danced in a long time.
It shows.
I remember doing
Was it like
Yeah the Foxtrot
With this girl that had the clamiest hands
It was crazy
It was like holding two clamps
So slimy
But I thought it was
I thought it was
I thought it was me
I was like
I've done something wrong
Oh or maybe
Maybe my hands are too dry
no maybe like she's all sweaty because it's like this is her chance to dance with graham
the best at the boot scooting boogie mr boot scooting boogie himself were you good at it
no no no okay no uh anybody really yeah just some people memorize it better. Yeah.
But it's weird because they also, I remember it very distinctly, the music was on a record.
Whoa.
So that was, I remember that being very like, hearing the kind of clicks and pops before it started.
And just being like, I don't remember any of the steps. and then it starts and then it tells you the steps as you go
yeah but you know what do i know an alimade from a promenade right sure minute made
lemonade catering all the aids yeah whoa And a Gatorade. All the AIDS. Whoa. Oh, no.
What's going on with you?
Oh, I did a thing that I haven't done probably since high school, maybe.
I went and I did a double feature at the movies.
A real double feature, or did you sneak into one?
No, no, I paid for both, but I went to one, and then I went to the one that was immediately after the one that I saw
Just because I was
What'd you see?
I saw a documentary called Tickled
Which is so good
What's it about?
I don't want to say
Because it needs
It's about people who are into tickling
Yeah
And are adults
And are weirdos And it's great I don't do well with tickling? Yeah. And are adults. And are weirdos.
And it's great.
I don't do well with tickling.
No, and it's, that's fine.
You know who'd be really good at tickling?
No triggers.
That spider gremlin.
Oh, yeah, you'd be able to do so many at once.
Very efficient tickler.
And then after the second movie was a movie called Swiss Army Man.
Oh, I really want to see that.
It doesn't have a good ending.
I will say that.
Spoiler.
Well, you knew that it ended and that it was going to be good or bad.
Now you're right.
I did spoil it.
But that was fun.
I haven't done that since forever.
Just going and seeing two movies.
It's a lot.
And where was it?
The Rio Theater.
Oh, so one,
one,
one screen.
Yeah.
So you had to go out
and then go back in
for the second.
Oh,
really?
Oh.
Uh,
it was fine.
Yeah.
I needed a break,
you know?
Get some fresh air.
Um,
so I did that.
That was kind of,
that was fun.
That was a fun thing to try.
Yeah.
And,
Were you by yourself?
No, I went with a friend. Oh. Yeah. Were you by yourself? No,
I went with a friend.
Oh.
Yeah.
We alimated all the way there,
promenaded all the way home.
La la.
It was my friend,
Neil,
from film school.
And we really,
we really film school
nerded it up afterwards.
Do you see him often?
Yeah,
I see him pretty often.
Okay.
So it wasn't just like, all reminiscing about, you know, the rule of thirds. nerded it up afterwards. Do you see him often? Yeah, I see him pretty often.
So it wasn't just like all reminiscing about,
you know,
the rule of thirds.
How many foot candles
do you think this
light came off?
But,
yeah, I would say
you can go see either of them.
What?
I had a really bad
recurring nightmare when I was a kid about tickling.
Really?
Yeah.
Like about being tickled?
About being tickled.
It was like I was in a dark room and I couldn't see anything.
And then all of a sudden out of nowhere comes like this classic like witch with the green skin and the warty nose.
Oh, yeah.
And she just tickled me.
That was a whole nightmare.
Did you, as a kid, did you like being tickled?
Oh no,
I hated it.
But like,
but mostly because
of the nightmare.
Because I have
a two year old
or almost two year old
and
it's,
we're at this weird point
where I tickle her
and she hates it
and then when I stop
she says,
more.
That's really cute.
She's playing hard to get
yeah but it's like
I remember feeling
that same way
like this is unbearable
I love it
yeah
that is
generally the
reaction from kids
with tickling
for sure
but you didn't like it at all
no
it's torturous
sorry
no
it's fine now
you know
okay so we can tickle you yeah so during our tickle break we'll have a tickle break that's fine now. Okay.
So we can tickle you?
Yeah.
So during our tickle break?
We'll have a tickle break.
That's fine?
Absolutely.
Yeah.
I think I've gone through phases of being more ticklish and less ticklish.
Yeah.
I won't say what I am now.
Where is it for you?
Armpits?
It used to be armpits or anywhere in the ribs.
Now, not there.
But anywhere, you know, like if you grab somebody.
Is it really tickles my ribs?
It's a rib tickler?
It's a rib tickler, yeah.
Does that mean it's funny?
I think so.
Yeah.
Or what does tickle my dick mean?
It means
you're about to go to HR.
Oh, sorry.
But yeah, the grabbing the leg
right above the knee?
Behind the knee.
Oh, yeah.
The feet? I'd never done anything.
But yeah, it used to be like, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The feet never, I'd never done anything. Uh,
but yeah, it used to be like,
yeah,
but my brothers and I,
when we would tickle each other,
we would do it in a,
the most painful way possible.
So we like,
like kind of like,
like,
uh,
your fingers into the,
the other's armpit.
Oh no.
Yeah.
We,
uh,
my friend Gary and I,
we saw this nature documentary
about some underwater creature
that impregnated each other.
What?
Right under the jaw.
They would latch onto the other one's jaw.
Oh, God.
And so we just kept reaching up
and poking each other in the throat.
And it was... This was in our 20s what kind of film school talk did you do like what was the most pretentious thing you said
oh well not that film school is pretentious but no but that's where you're going right
yeah absolutely uh at the well we were talking about how the...
The mise-en-scene.
Oh, my God.
In the second movie, in the Swiss Army Man,
the ending didn't match the rest of the movie.
So my friend, I think, correctly pointed out
that it was very obviously a reshoot.
Because they were shooting day for night.
And just the way, and like when he said it, I was like, yeah, that is probably exactly what happened because it really just didn't match.
Did like the Swiss Army man come alive or something?
I'm not saying anything.
Damn it.
No spoilers.
And then I'm also like, I'm on the fence because I've heard Suicide Squad is bad.
I haven't heard that at all.
But is it bad enough that it would be fun to go see?
I think if you go in with like low expectations you probably enjoy yourself.
Although the older I get
the harder that is.
Like the more
it just seems like
a waste of time
to watch a bad movie.
Yeah.
Although the other night
oh boy
I watched
the latest
Transformers movie
it was on Netflix.
I was watching
the GoBots movie.
Who was the lead in that?
Donnie Wahlberg.
Of course. Who's in your movie mark oh okay mcguire mark walberg is i think he's a really good actor as long as he's cast in the tiny little box
of things that he actually is yeah and so And so, Was he good in this then?
He was,
he played an inventor.
Yeah.
Oh,
so no.
So he was terrible.
But I'm an inventor.
Oh,
but,
Listen here,
I'm inventing stuff.
The end scene
in Transformers 4,
You're just spoiling
shit left and right.
is so crazy.
It's so crazy that I almost think. is so crazy. It's so crazy
that I almost think
it's worth watching.
It's a crazy thing
that happens in this movie
about giant robots
that come to our planet
to fight.
So crazy.
And turn into cars.
Yeah.
That's what I mean.
It's crazier than that.
When you start at that level
and then they're,
oh boy.
I've seen the first three.
Have you really?
I've only seen the first one.
Well, I used to date a crazy Transformer fanatic.
Oh, I thought you, I was really hoping that it would just end in a Transformer.
Me and Bumblebee.
That's why he can't talk anymore.
We had a really bad breakup.
We'll protect his identity.
I was dating Optimus P.
Yeah.
He likes to go by P.
Optimus P Yeah
He likes to
Go by P
The other fun thing
For these actors
Is
The scenes
Kelsey Grammer's in it
And he plays like
A government agent
That's fun for actors
Where he
Has to say like
We're breaking off
Ties with the Autobots
He has to say
Autobots
Yeah
And Decepticons
We're imposing Sanctions on the Autobots and Decepticons. We're imposing sanctions on the Autobots.
Oh, we can't trust the Decepticons.
Oh, I was right in their name.
Anyways.
It's cool that they came to our planet fully marketed.
It's like they had done the testing. We're gonna be the bad guys we're just all the focus
groups yeah there's a very funny scene in the opening like one of the opening scenes of
transformers 4 where is that is it all michael bay has he done all the oh yeah yeah well then
of course it's funny he's a great comedic director there's a scene where Mark Wahlberg is driving down this country road.
So nobody would drive down it except the guy who lives there.
There's a giant billboard that says, like, remember Chicago.
I guess the third movie took place in Chicago.
Is it just for him to remember?
Who else is remembering it?
Don't forget about Chicago.
Remember?
Remember all that destruction?
It's like,
yeah,
it's a personal reminder.
Yeah.
Oh yeah,
I need to buy tickets to Chicago.
It's like,
remember,
buy milk.
Oh boy.
So there are my three movie recommendations of the week.
Tickle Man.
Yeah,
Tickle Man,
Autotrons. Autotrons,. Tickle Man. Yeah, Tickle Man, Autotrons.
Autotrons and Swiss Army Man.

Some people invited us to their wedding in Georgia in November.
Did they send tickets?
No, we'll send back whether or not we're going to go.
Yeah. I got to think, is there anything that I want to see in Georgia?
Mm-hmm.
It's been on your mind.
Yeah, yeah.
Those peaches.
Yeah, millions of them.
I mean, they're made downtown.
They're put in a can by a man in a factory.
You can, oh, let's see.
What else is in Georgia?
Well, they shoot. Where did we get Hotlanta?
Where's Designing Women from?
Hotlanta.
Hotlanta.
Oh, I could go on the Real Housewives of Atlanta reality tour.
I could go to the Walking Dead walking tour.
I don't know what else there is.
Lots of stuff shot in Georgia.
It seems to be like the new Vancouver.
Yeah.
Where things get shot.
Yeah, Outcast is from there.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah. Maybe I should go. Okay. One of Yeah. Where things get shot. Yeah. Outcast is from there. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
Maybe I should go.
Okay.
One of us is going to your wedding.
Now it's time for overheards, and we always like to start with the guest, and you're the
guest.
That's me.
So, you know, take it away.
I got a couple of goodies, guys.
First one's an overseen.
I saw a man, and I was home and i was uh walked by a
park i saw a man that was like in a leather jacket and no shirt and he had like a faux hawk
but it was like very tall that's french for fake mohawk Louis Fauxhawk Louis Fauxhawk and he was
he was sitting
in a carless
car seat
so it was like
a car seat
that was taken out
of a car
oh okay
like a
not a kid's car seat
not a kid's car seat
like an actual seat
in a car
and he was just
sitting in the park
in this car seat
and he's smoking
a cigar
and he took
a big puff as I was walking
by and he said, ah, this is the life.
It certainly is.
Sure.
I mean.
Those seats recline.
Yeah.
Especially when they're not in a car, they recline all the way.
I mean, it's not not the life.
Like I can picture myself.
Who's the first guy who said this is the life?
Yeah, where did that come from?
As opposed to...
Let's ask Siri.
No, I think it was a dead guy.
That is ironic.
I think it was Casper the Friendly Ghost that said, ha, this is the life.
As he looked down on his family that was buried.
They don't...
Never have to see those jerks again.
Yeah, like,
the weird thing about Casper
as a friendly ghost
is that then he becomes friends
with other ghosts.
So that's a weird thing.
But they're jerks to him.
Yeah, but it's a weird thing
to think that, like,
if, okay, so then you die,
then you're a ghost.
Now you have to go meet new,
like a new set of friends because all your other friends are still alive.
Well,
of course it's understood,
but isn't he the friendly ghost?
Isn't he the ghost that people like?
I guess so.
Yeah.
But then he's also friends with a witch.
Which is questionable.
A tickly witch.
Oh no!
Oh no!
The dream's coming true. In the best possible witch. Oh, no. Oh, no. The dream's coming true.
In the best possible way.
Dave, do you have an overage?
Sure.
Mine is an overseen.
I mentioned a few weeks ago I was in southern Ontario in the town of Orangeville, which, as you'll recall, was founded by a guy named Orange Lawrence.
Orange Lawrence, yeah.
Louis Orange Lawrence. Orange Lawrence, yeah. Louis Orange Lawrence.
Uh-huh.
And I saw a business that had the most Canadian sign I've ever seen.
It said the name of the business was Barth's Cleaning Center.
So it's a cleaning center owned by Barth. was center was spelt with an re re of course
and the sign said hockey season is over clean the salt off your car mats and freshen up your
hockey gear it's so ontario yeah come into come to the cleaning center. That's what we do here. Say hi to Barth. Ask me if I can clean a thing.
I can.
I can do it.
You know what?
A boot?
No problem.
That's how he says about.
Barth.
Yeah.
Just go with Barth.
Party on, Barth.
Either be Bart
or full on Bartholomew.
Yeah, why go halfway?
Barth just comes out of my mouth wrong.
It just sounds like barf.
It does.
It's a problem.
Get your shit together, Barth.
After Barth.
Oh, no.
That's his late-night talk show.
Why is it after him, though?
That doesn't make any sense.
That's when Chris Hardwick talks about all the car mash
between
it's barth
tonight
and then
after barth
okay
we saved it
my overheard
came courtesy
of a
young woman
on the bus
who
I want to say
to me
like
just looked
like
a hot mess.
Like somebody who.
In a good way?
No, like in a, imagine that this was your roommate and she never does the dishes and is always late with the rent kind of way.
Yeah.
Like just everything was kind of a struggle.
And she was on the phone talking very loudly about how she used used to smoke she doesn't smoke anymore but she
she's saying out loud to her friend meanwhile she's like grooming herself while she's talking
subconsciously so that was that was pleasant for all everybody to be involved in well who else is
gonna groom her you're right nobody well maybe you could find a bird oh yeah yeah probably train a
bird to do it maybe yeah yeah chimps for sure oh yeah a bird to do it chimps maybe yeah chimps for sure
oh yeah one of those
helper chimps
that's not a thing
it should be
yeah
hey chimpanzee
can you help me
rip off my genitals
but yeah she was saying
oh yeah I used to smoke
I don't know how
I used to have
how did I used to have so much don't know how I used to have.
How did I used to have so much money?
And then a long pause.
Oh, yeah, my parents.
That's good.
Yeah, she.
Oh, man, it was just the whole bus ride.
She was just chatting away.
Oh, man.
Do you remember having money?
Having money?
Yeah.
Not really.
But back in the 1920s.
Before the stock market crash.
Before the prohibition.
All that stuff. Now, do you have another one?
That's when my top hat had the top on it.
Go on.
Do you have another overheard?
I was waiting for the ferry in the car with my boyfriend, past guest, Kevin Banner.
Oh, this is new stuff.
And a lady and a dude were walking towards us, and the whole time they weren't talking.
And then when they got closer to the car, the lady turned to the guy and she said,
I'm a warrior in so many ways.
And then the guy just looked at her and he said,
okay.
Yeah.
I mean,
sure.
I guess I knew that when I married you.
Guys,
I'm loving these talkies.
I'm not going to be able
to finish a whole bag.
I think you can.
I think you can.
It's a heavy bag.
It's a heavy bag,
but,
and I'm not
taking handfuls.
I got to go real slow.
Also, you've got red all over
your knuckles from a bloody knuckle game i was playing heavy bag you were punching earlier
um now we also have uh overheard sent into us from people around the world if you want to send
one into us send it into spy at maximum fun.org now this's, this one's a scandalous. This first one comes from James F.
So I was getting off an airplane today and was stuck standing behind the guy
I'd been sitting next to.
I was significantly taller than him.
So I could clearly see what he was doing on his phone over the shoulder.
And usually I wouldn't endorse this type of behavior,
but on a plane, what are you going to do?
Right?
Yeah.
You're waiting to get off a plane.
Where are you supposed to look?
Straight up?
There's somewhere else to go.
Yeah.
You look over someone's shoulder to see if they're wearing a boulder holder.
Yeah.
He was an older guy, short and pudgy, kind of smelled and snored on the plane.
I could see him texting someone to say,
Hey, baby, just landed.
Can't wait to see you.
Love you.
So I felt like a dick for judging him.
Then I saw him click into another chat and text,
Hey, baby, I'm here.
Can't wait to see you tomorrow.
Kissy emoji.
And then he clicked on another conversation
and said, Hey, sexy, I'm slammed tonight,
but tomorrow, I promise, XOXO.
It looked like he had at least five conversations going with different women.
I'm not sure if I should be impressed, disgusted, or just stay confused like I am right now.
I'm.
I think I'm all three.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Like, there's parts of me that, like.
I'm impressed you can, you know.
Like, I can't even keep five conversations, non-sexual conversations going.
What happens when she mixes it up?
Oh, I didn't mean to send you a picture of my wiener.
You're my travel agent.
Anyway, my wiener got here okay.
Wiener really loves this hotel.
I know that was one of our worries because of my chimp helper.
This next one comes from Sarah T. in Edmonton, Alberta.
Coworker one.
Wait, there's a Niagara Falls, USA?
Co-worker two.
Yeah, it's the US side of the falls.
Co-worker one.
Isn't there a river or something there?
Well, yeah, it's Niagara Falls.
Co-worker one.
Is there a fence or anything?
I mean, how do we keep people out?
Good question. Yeah, I guess people in do we keep people out? Good question.
Yeah, I guess people in a barrel can cross the border.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, that means you really wanted it, right?
Yeah.
Yeah, then you deserve it.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
Does it flow into Canada?
I think so.
Or into the States?
I know that the States side is the really pretty side to look at, but it's not the prettiest place.
I've only seen the Canadian side.
It looks pretty, but I have nothing to compare it to.
Is this not cumulatively burning your mouth, or is it just like stay at the same level of burn?
I don't like it.
For the listener at home, Dave is covered in talkie dust.
Shows no signs of slowing down.
They are talkies because this ain't the silent era.
This last one comes from Dave B.
The other afternoon I got in my car and turned it on while waiting for my phone to connect over Bluetooth.
I heard the following on whatever radio station my car was tuned to.
When you think about Doritos filling a grave, it gets expensive.
Emotionally expensive.
Doritos filling a grave.
Yeah.
What a weird picture.
It's like how you win a lifetime supply of Doritos.
You have to eat them to death, though.
Yeah, it's like a deal with the devil.
I want a lifetime supply of Doritos, and then he gives you one bag and it kills you the next day.
But would a bag get you through a day?
No.
Your first day of having a lifetime supply, I think you go ham.
Full on ham.
You need Doritos?
What's your favorite type of chip?
Ooh, my favorite type.
Have to be classic regular.
Classic regular, just a chip?
Potato flavored chip?
Just potato flavored.
Yeah.
Close second, ketchup.
Really?
Yeah.
Close second? Close. Really? Yeah. Close second?
Close.
Very close.
Ketchup's one that I'll only, if it's just at a party, I'll get it.
I never buy a bag.
Will you buy a bag of ketchup chips?
Oh, yeah.
Wow.
My family lived in Minnesota at some point, and as Americans know, no ketchup chips there.
Yeah.
It was very sad.
It was a sad time for me.
You had to make your own.
You had to dry your own ketchup on a plate of my son.
I had to make some ketchup dust while I was drying my chicken for my camel meat.
For your camel meat.
Yeah.
I don't think that's how it works.
A camel's just made out of old chicken.
Exactly.
You can reverse engineer a camel.
Just trying to make a camel out of it.
It's all weird and like chicken fleshy.
It is all weird, though.
Yeah, it is weird.
Yeah, that's why they're always spitting because they're just angry they're former chickens.
Yeah.
Can you taste me?
Tastes like chicken.
Brush my teeth.
In addition to overheards that are written and we also accept your phone calls.
If you would like to call us, our phone number is 206.
No, it's not.
No, it changed.
It's 1-844-
S-P-Y-P-O-D
1. That's 1.
Ugh. SpyPod.
1. Ooh.
Like these people have.
Hey, Dave Graham and guests. It's Ben in New York.
I was just in a
deli and a woman
headed me in line, picked out
some mints and
asked how much they were and the lady said
they were $2.50.
The woman went
God, that is ridiculous.
She took out $3, put it on the
counter and
said keep the change. Walked out.
I've
never heard of anything so
expensive. So ridiculous. Here, have a little for yourself as well. I love that she of anything so expensive. So ridiculous.
Here, have a little for yourself as well.
I love that she said keep the change
after she made a big hullabaloo about it being too expensive.
Here's something that I can never do.
I can never say keep the change.
Yeah, me neither.
Like, I've tried it, and it always comes out like,
keep just the remainder of whatever I find.
Keep the dividend for yourself.
I mean, the tip is included.
Yeah.
But on my end.
Anyways, I got to go.
It's weird, though, paying cash for something in person or when you have to have that interaction and you're tipping them
when you have to be like, can I get $6 back?
Oh, yeah.
Like you give them a 20 and you're like, oh, I only want to tip you three.
Yeah.
And you're like, yeah, you're like, I'm not going to give you $5 just so you can give me a bill back.
Just so I look cool.
Oh, man.
I got an old bill and I was like, I'll use it at a coffee shop.
Hopefully, a person will just accept it without being like, they made such a big deal out of it.
Like, wow, I haven't seen one of these in so long.
Was it like an old $20 bill?
It was an old $20.
Oh, yeah.
And boy, oh boy, I was like, I should have just thrown it in the car like this guy. No, the newer one than that. Oh, yeah. And boy, oh boy, I was like, I should have just thrown in the garbage. Like this guy?
No, the newer one than that.
Oh, okay.
Oh, before they fancied it up.
The one with the stripe, you know?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I used to have an old $2 bill.
Really?
Yeah.
Did you frame that shit?
No, I brought it to the bank and exchanged it for a toonie.
Nice.
Oh, do they still have to do that?
Oh, yeah.
For legal tender?
Still legal tender.
Cool.
I mean, I don't have one, but
it must be nice. Yeah, we'll be rich
if we just can cash in on our $2
bills. Here's your next
phone call. Hi, Dave, Graham,
Jess.
I'm calling in with an overheard from
Kent, Ohio.
I was dropping keys off at
my apartment's leasing office
and there was a girl there who was going over the lease with the dropping keys off at my apartment's leasing office.
And there was a girl there who was going over the lease with the property manager.
The property manager said, there's no lead base on the property,
but that doesn't mean you should go eating paint chips willy-nilly.
The paint chips belong to us.
Yeah, very good.
I was not expecting that.
Yeah.
I like the phrase willy-nilly.
Willy-nilly.
It's always made me
smile every time
I think of it.
It's an adverb.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Because it ends in L-Y.
Yeah, I guess
that's true.
Huh.
Pretty good.
I don't know how
they use it.
I wonder if there was
a guy named willy-nilly
that just went all over
the place and that's who
they nicknamed it after.
Harry Nilsson's brother.
Yeah.
William Nilsson.
Or Willy Nilly.
He had a fun
nickname for his last name?
Uh, yep.
Yep.
No more questions
at this time.
Alright,
here's your final
overheard ever.
I'm not saying
the thing anymore.
Hi, I'm Graham and likely guests.
This is Lindsay from Virginia, and I'm calling in with an overheard.
I was at Target this morning, and there was a little girl, probably seven years old.
She was trying to help her mother pick a swimsuit.
And I guess mom likes bikinis, and the little girl didn't because she asked her mom,
Mom, have you ever worn one-pieces?
And her mom said, Oh, yeah,
when I was on the swim team. At which
point the little girl turned to her and said,
No, in your old age.
Kids
can really devastate you.
A couple words can really take you down.
Hit you where it hurts.
Here's a thing that I haven't
done probably since I was a kid.
Worn a one-piece?
Yeah, I've shopped for a bathing suit.
Oh.
I wouldn't say that I've shopped for one so much as just ran into a store.
Found one on someone who drowned.
Yeah.
You don't need this anymore.
You were skinny dipping.
Got it?
Yeah.
At the pool well that
do you currently own a bathing suit?
yeah
because I had to buy one
but then I never used it
I bought one when we were going somewhere
and everybody made a big deal about the hotel having a pool
and then I bought
a bathing suit at like

And people go and they hurt each other's feelings in front of a panini.
It's great.
Yeah.
I can't.
I can dish it out, but I can't take it.
That's always been my goal.
Fair enough.
Well, you're always welcome to judge because.
Oh, no, I don't feel.
I don't want to put myself above anybody.
I feel like I have too many targets.
Yeah, I feel like it would be very easy for somebody to attack me in a roast battle.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
It's a lot of fun to watch, though.
I don't know.
