Starting point is 00:01:55 But it's an honor to be 448. Well, it doesn't sound like it is. Who would be a good 500? Like, is there someone we associate with the number 500? Who's won the indianapolis 500 oh sure uh bobby ray hall uh arie lyondike tate windsor um um gordon gordon pucker we could have somebody from the movie 300 uh-huh and then another guy uh zoe de chanel from 500 First Dates or whatever. Yeah, she'd be good. There we go. 500.
Starting point is 00:02:27 Days of Summer. It's the highest bill you can get in Monopoly. Oh, wait, it's not 500 First Dates. Is that in the name of the movie? 500 times we date. It's the name of the movie. Yeah. 500 crazy dates.
Starting point is 00:02:40 Crazy dates with Zoe D. Oh, should we get to know us? Yeah. Sure. Get to know us? Yeah. Get to know us. I'm not sure if you want to plug this or not, but you have a book. Yes, and I'm not sure we want to plug this or not, but Dave Shumka helped write this book. Okay, all right. So this is all we don't know?
Starting point is 00:03:01 I'm not sure I want to plug that. Does anybody, is anybody sure about what they want to say about this? No. Okay. So we, yes, we wrote a, this is that travel guide to Canada, which was a, it's like a fake Lonely Planet. Right. All nonsense.
Starting point is 00:03:16 And we needed to really compress the timeline in which this thing needed to be finished. Because you were like, we need this. I was like, oh, I have an idea. Let's make a book. And then the publisher was like, well, you have an idea. Let's make a book. And then the publisher was like, well, you have to finish it in like a month. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:28 If you're going to get it into the stores. We're going to sneak it in on the end of some menus. Yes, exactly. That's pretty much it. If you want it for Christmas. Right.
Starting point is 00:03:38 And somehow we wrote it in even less time because it's going to be available at the beginning of November. Yes. Wow. Yeah, November 1st, it's available the november rush because there's all sorts of holidays in november you buy books for remembrance day uh-huh american thanksgiving black friday these are all great halloween discount halloween sales yeah um do you think you'll make it into
Starting point is 00:04:04 the halloween discount bin i guess that would be really depressing if they're like you know what this put this with all of the crappy chocolate bars like 50 cents put these next to the mini kit kats yeah take it it's a book do you have a favorite halloween fun size thing? Yes. What is? Little Smarties? No. Well, I mean, those are fun. But it was only because I would never see the full size ones in stores.
Starting point is 00:04:33 It was the Three Musketeers. Oh. I would get mini Three Musketeers. That's not, no peanuts in there? No, it's just a nougat. Oh. Yeah, just a marshmallow-y nougat. I like a Wonder Bar because they get that, you have that strip of, I think it's just a
Starting point is 00:04:48 Canadian. It's a very weird one to like. Yeah. But they have that strip of caramel over top of the peanut butter and in a large bar, it's not, it's not perfect, but just there's a dusting of it. There's a snap to the, when you bite into it, the, it kind of snaps.
Starting point is 00:05:05 See, what I don't like about Halloween candy these days is the, it's, is the globification of the monopolization by these, by big candy. Okay. Tell me more. Grouping all of these together in these variety packs. Oh, in the variety packs. And then everybody just buys the same variety pack so that it's just a combination of like four or five of the same thing. So in years past, you would get just a thing of Tootsie Rolls. There was some curation.
Starting point is 00:05:32 Yeah. There was some curation on behalf of the purchaser. Oh, to be a candy curator. I feel like they're doing opposite curation where they will absolutely put something they cannot sell. Otherwise, they'll stick it in with some. Into the variety pack, yeah. Well, yeah, like I feel like Arrow is the one that always gets thrown in the variety pack. Yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 00:05:52 It's like, I don't know. And like Tootsie Rolls are hard to come by now, I think. Yeah, you've brought them up twice. Well, I brought them up the first time. Oh, okay. Rockets are kind kind of hearts come by no I get plenty of rockets still when you go
Starting point is 00:06:09 trick or treating yeah you know what's kind of disappeared I think is just a general sucker lollipops oh just like
Starting point is 00:06:16 yeah I don't know I wonder because has it disappeared or do you want one like I I like the ones
Starting point is 00:06:23 with the thing inside what are the they're like Tootsie Pops. Oh boy. This episode's brought to you by Tootsie Roll. So, here was my problem
Starting point is 00:06:30 with suckers when I was a kid is you would have a plastic Halloween bag and those suckers would punch a hole. It's true. Little sticks would be
Starting point is 00:06:39 sticking out of the bottom of the bag. Oh. Yeah. So, I mean, sure. Did I switch over
Starting point is 00:06:43 to pillowcase the next year? Sure. But that's because, again, Halloween conspiracy, the pillowcase Oh. Yeah. So, I mean, sure. Do I switch over to pillowcase the next year? Sure. But that's because, again, Halloween Conspiracy, the pillowcase people got involved. Oh, yeah. You know.
Starting point is 00:06:50 Sort of. I don't know who makes pillowcases. A lot of companies. Yeah. The organization. Yeah. Wamsutta.
Starting point is 00:07:01 The PCO. Pillowcase. Pillowcase Organization. Organization, sure. Association. It's a PCA. And I, I,
Starting point is 00:07:10 growing up, there was a lot of like thread shaming. Oh, sure. People would be like, what's the thread count? Is that Egyptian cotton? No,
Starting point is 00:07:19 guys, it's just, it's just for my candy. So, thread count, uh, shaming. Uh-huh.
Starting point is 00:07:24 We, we just got, uh, hoodwinked by this thread count thing. Oh, wait. Okay. Our second wedding anniversary. Happy anniversary. It's cotton. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:07:37 So, is that, I guess, the traditional, not the modern? I don't know. There's two sets. The modern is an iPod shuffle. Yeah. That's right. But the modern, it's only updated to like 2009. Yeah. That was the last time they were able to update it.
Starting point is 00:07:51 It's like a Netflix account. But the, so we, Cotton, we were in the United States and went into a Macy's. Advertising this advertising this huge sheet. This is also a tongue twister I came up with. She sells sheet sets at the Sears sheet set sale. Ah, really? She sells sheet sets at the Sears sheet set sale. And was your wife, when you said that,
Starting point is 00:08:26 was like, maybe we should have a separate vacation? No. And she was like, you better set sale, buddy. So we weren't at Sears, but we were at Macy's advertising this sheet sale. Yeah. Then you were like, oh, I wish this was at Sears, because then I could say this. She sells sheet sets at the Sears sheet set sale. Yeah. So when you were, then you were like, Oh, I wish this was at Sears. Cause then I could say this.
Starting point is 00:08:45 Yeah. She sells sheets at the Sears sheets at sale. So, so the, uh, we're thinking this is perfect. It's our anniversary. This is what we're supposed to get.
Starting point is 00:09:00 And there's a sale. So we're like, let's go right for the highest. Let's go for the highest thread count possible like that's gonna be the deal uh say say hypothetically that i'm a dumb dumb that doesn't know anything about uh thread counts thread crown softer yeah yeah there's just supposed to be better quality and sort of like say i'm a dumb dumb who knows nothing about thread count. The range is, oh, five threads to ten threads? Five threads to 1,200 threads.
Starting point is 00:09:28 Oh, wow. So that means it's like weaved, like there's 1,200 weaves per square weave unit. Yeah. Whatever it is. This is my point. It's all a myth. So we pick up these 1,200 thread count sheets. Right.
Starting point is 00:09:44 And we're like, holy cow, and they're 50% off and what a deal. Thread count sheets sounds on the mound. She counts thread counts at the seat set, thread counts at the seat. Sea shanty.
Starting point is 00:10:00 So, I'm picking these up, they're expensive, but now they're half price. And we think, well, this is a deal. We're getting the best sheets you can possibly get. So,
Starting point is 00:10:10 but I'm, as we're walking to the counter, I'm like, I'm looking at these. I'm like, these don't look that like, I've been in hotels that have nicer sheets. Like this is not,
Starting point is 00:10:19 I'm not sure these ones are like legit, really good sheets. And what do you know what the name, like, was there a particular thing? It wasn't like a, you know, it wasn't like a polo sheet or like Ralph Lauren or something.
Starting point is 00:10:33 It was just like Macy's kind of brand sheet house, house brand. Yeah. Yeah. And so I get to the counter and I'm, I'm fully skeptical. And I'm like, my brain is feeling like
Starting point is 00:10:47 my father like i'm like oh my god this is what it feels like to be my dad yeah because i'm like skeptical starting to get cheap about the whole thing you see a kid cutting eye holes in the same sheets and you're like oh no so i go up to the lady and i'm like um because it was just said 50 off it didn't actually tell what the real price was and so she rings the lady and I'm like, because it was just said 50% off. It didn't actually tell what the real price was. And so she rings it in and it was like, I forget what it was. And I said to her, I was like,
Starting point is 00:11:12 are these like really good sheets? And she doesn't even look up from the cash register. She goes, yeah, they're all right. And so we bought them. And they're honestly, it's like being in a hospital bed oh that's great yeah hospital bed goes up and down yeah no one no one gets better care for it very it's a very thick almost like i'm not sure we bought cotton or a canvas oh yeah like too many threads yeah yeah way too many threads yeah at that point when it becomes too many threads, it's canvas.
Starting point is 00:11:46 You know what else is funny? It's too many cooks. Oh, yeah. Very funny. Very fun. Very funny. So was this an anniversary trip that you were on or you just happened to be down? Because do we have Macy's up here?
Starting point is 00:11:59 Do we? No. We just got Nordstrom. Oh, boy. Macy's is the bay. Still haven't made the trip. Me neither. Macy's is the bay. Me neither. Macy's is exactly the same as the bay. Yeah, except instead of having Wayne Gretzky brand suits,
Starting point is 00:12:10 they have Ryan Seacrest brand suits. I'm not joking. Who would I rather dress like? That's a tough call. Because I don't think either of them are known as snappy dressers. Ryan Seacrest looks fine. He looks fine. But I don't think they make suits for people
Starting point is 00:12:25 above 5'1". Who do you think, who doesn't have a suit right now who should have a suit? What do you mean? Steve Harvey has his own line of suits. Who do you want to, who would you
Starting point is 00:12:40 absolutely say, yes, that's the suit I'm going to buy because... It's the character Hannibal in the TV show. The kids from Stranger Things? The TV show Hannibal. Hannibal is dressed impeccably in every episode. Okay. So it's just like suits by Hannibal Lecter.
Starting point is 00:13:00 I would go with the Cherry Poppin' Daddies. Mm-hmmdies because they make these suits are so zooty they're going to cause a riot does Guy Ferreri have his own does he have his own line of clothing he has his own line of sauces
Starting point is 00:13:17 that's a no brainer and like finger licking you can buy fingers pre-dipped fingers why am I at thimbles And like finger licking. Yeah. He's his own friend. You can buy fingers. Yeah, you can buy fingers. They're just like pre-dipped fingers. Yes. Why am I at Thimble's? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:31 It's just a rubber glove that's been dipped in barbecue sauce and then you put it on. Free sauce fingers. He doesn't have flip flops. No. Which he should. Or sunglasses he could have. Or a hair dye. He should do a partnership with Oakley.ops. No. Which he should. Or sunglasses he could have. Or a hair dye.
Starting point is 00:13:46 He should do a partnership with Oakley. Sure. Sure. I don't think Oakley would be too stoked on that. I think they try to be, you know, athletic
Starting point is 00:13:54 and do skiing. Less munchy. Yeah. Like, wear them on the back of your head. I wonder if Oakley likes that people do that.
Starting point is 00:14:03 Maybe they don't care. Wear them to your wedding of your head. I wonder if Oakley likes that people do that. Maybe they don't care. Wear them to your wedding. You're going to kiss the bride. You better put them on the back of your head now. Manufacturer's instructions. So, Pat. Yes. We teased this book.
Starting point is 00:14:18 Okay. Yeah. Tell us a little. What's the name of it? Well, Dave, you helped write it. I didn't write the title. It's called the This Is That Travel Guide to Canada.
Starting point is 00:14:27 And it's broken up into everything you need to learn about Canada. Yes. I was there because I co-wrote it. Is my name on it? No. Yes, it is. Well, it's inside. But no one's authors aren't on the cover. But if you go to Amazon, it won't say
Starting point is 00:14:44 Dave Shumka. The foreword by Dave Thomas. Oh, nice. From SCTV. Bob and Doug McKenzie, Dave Thomas, who's an old friend of ours. And he, yeah, wrote this hilarious foreword. And then... Can I ask a question about a foreword?
Starting point is 00:15:00 Yeah. Does the person who writes the foreword have to read the book? No. No, they can just say, I think this person is great, and have to read the book? No. No. They can just say, I think this person is great. And I think their book is going to be great. And he wrote, well, I won't give away too much of his forward.
Starting point is 00:15:14 No, no. Yeah. You got to buy the book. He wrote this hilarious forward, like sort of indicating that Peter and I, the other host of this is that we're are like these just obsessed, um, travelers who, who. Right. Sit around and, uh, you know, have all these philosophies about what the travel does to one soul. It was, it's really good.
Starting point is 00:15:34 And then the book inside is like, um, you know, like a lonely planet or a rough guide. Like if you're going to go visit Australia, you'd in earnest by like a guide that's right. When arriving at the airport, make sure like Australia airports are weird. You got to. Don't guide that's like, when arriving at the airport, make sure like, Australia airports are weird. You gotta.
Starting point is 00:15:48 Don't, don't buy a boomerang at the airport. That's the most expensive place to buy them. Exactly. That's the book. So we did that for all of Canada.
Starting point is 00:15:54 That's just, it's all nonsense and recommendations for restaurants. Places to go. Places to go. Things to see. Museums.
Starting point is 00:16:01 How people behave. How to interact with your waiter. Cause that's like like Monty Python put out a bunch of books kind of after
Starting point is 00:16:11 they made movies and stuff there's a whole series of books they put out that were really really funny yeah I mean this was really fun
Starting point is 00:16:17 like to yeah we and we burned through it like we gave each other writing assignments every week
Starting point is 00:16:23 yeah and we would meet up right at this very table. Nice. Go over them. And punch down each other's jokes. Not punch them up. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:32 Punch them down. Yeah. That's what you're supposed to do. You're supposed to punch down. Right? In comedy, you always punch those beneath you. But the, yeah, I mean, it's like uh the you know the nature of the show this is that it's like a parody of radio uh you know public radio kind of how many years on the air seven seven
Starting point is 00:16:52 years and the season's on right now yeah um but writing this made us realize like the function of our show is to parody things that we could parody other books too. Like this is that self-help guide. This is that guide to finance. This is that guide to, you know. So this is relationships. I think so. Yeah. I think we're going to, because it was fun. Now, if anybody buys it, maybe it's not going to be so fun, but.
Starting point is 00:17:18 I got paid up front. Yeah. Dave's the only one who got his money up front. Do you got, is it going to be on a Kindle? Can I get it on a Kindle? Yep. Can I get it on a Mac? Yep.
Starting point is 00:17:28 You can get it in your ears. Oh, yeah. It's a radio show, so they made an audio book. So we made the audio book. Smart. Smart. And Dave and you did the, no, just kidding. Yeah, Dave and I wrote the afterword, the afterthought.
Starting point is 00:17:41 Yeah. It hasn't been published yet, but we've got it's on my uh to do it's on my thumb drive right write the index yeah oh yeah that would be cool to get a celebrity to write the index index by tedious tediously going through the book and like finding words Page 83 Shelf I'm so Shelf I'm so glad We got Bill Murray Bill Murray To do the
Starting point is 00:18:10 Indict Well that's cool So I highly suggest Writing a book I don't know You could do it Especially with Dave You could do it in a month
Starting point is 00:18:19 Yeah We could just crank What would we call our book I This is going to start The conversation of people listening to your program wanting you to write a book. Well, I want to publish a book of my Christmas coupons that I make every year, but I'm a little late this year.
Starting point is 00:18:37 Oh, yeah, because like. I want to do it upright. I want to illustrate it. I want to make.

Starting point is 00:19:40 the deal yes trump wrote zero percent of that and this guy wrote a hundred oh yeah and he came up with uh oh he came up with this ridiculous term for lying oh yeah it's what is called like conflated something yeah yeah like factual exaggeration and the thing about that story too is that he didn't want he got so tired and lazy of it. Trump was like, I don't want to do this anymore. You just do it. And the guy was like, okay.
Starting point is 00:20:08 So all he did was follow him around and like, listen to what he was saying. Yeah. And then he took these little parts and then he molded them into like, it was an instruction. Yeah. Into a philosophy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:18 That's just what we did for this book. Like I just followed Dave around and he's like, Oh, Canada, Oh, rivers. And I'm like, Oh,

Most of my stories have four kickers. Yeah. So this is like more like a soccer team. Yeah. You're on the second kicker. So here's the second kicker. Got it.

Starting point is 00:52:53 to throw somebody underneath the fifth wheel. And then wasn't there, something happened on a bus too? Wasn't there a bus in it? Well, no, it was a big suburban SUV thing. Remember? I don't. I remember them getting on a bus. It was a bus., it was a big, like, suburban SUV thing. Remember? I don't. I remember them getting on a bus.
Starting point is 00:53:08 Maybe it was a bus. But then it was like, it was up to the fifth wheel to realize they were the fifth wheel and be like, I'm out of here. And they would always end up crying. Yeah, they were like, I was on here and I thought Graham and I were... And then Dave showed up and now I'm the one who's got to go.
Starting point is 00:53:25 Yeah. And then people would be like, fifth wheel. You got fifth wheel. You were crying. Dating shows in my eye will never get old. As long as they come up with a new, just even the slightest novelty.
Starting point is 00:53:39 Undercover boss dating. Undercover blouse. What? No, that's a good one where you go on a date. Undercover of darkness. You're cheating on your spouse, but then it's the spouse
Starting point is 00:53:54 that you're cheating with and it's sponsored by Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville. No, it's Leo Sayers. It's a Leo Sayer? No, he's whatever who writes Pina Colada. Isn't Whatever who write Pina Colada. Isn't that...

Starting point is 00:54:29 it's fun fun it's fun it's fun so okay Leo Sayre is you make me feel like dancing
Starting point is 00:54:37 I'm gonna dance that way I so I got myself this electric toothbrush I hate it I hate it it just vibrates my head.
Starting point is 00:54:47 I don't... What do people get out of this? Like, I'm a good... I'm a good toothbrusher. I like getting in there. I like working the angles. See, I... You'll get used to it.
Starting point is 00:54:58 Do you think? You're an electro? Yeah. I've had mine long enough that the rubber is coming off. They die. I'm sure it'll die one day. I'm on my second. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:55:09 The first one died. Third one's cotton. So you don't move it, right? You just hold it in that quadrant. You move it a bit. Yeah, you move it. But you're not brushing it. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:55:24 It's just like... Yeah, it brushing it no no no but it's just like yeah it's just like not even oscillating it's just like like this i've got two toothbrushes um uh here's what it gives you yeah two minutes where you can just shut your mind off oh no i feel uh it's rattling my head so it's just it's it's, that's just, that's, you're just new to this. You know, you guys all remember when you first used it and then rattling was very, it felt intense. Now you'll come to want that feeling. Oh,
Starting point is 00:55:53 yeah. Then what if you're somewhere without electricity? But I feel like this is interesting that the dentists are now pushing these because when I first started using it, well, yeah, the hygienist was like, yeah,
Starting point is 00:56:04 they're fine. You can do with with a regular toothbrush. My dentist pretty much just came in and looked at me from the hallway and said, good. I don't understand what dentists do sometimes. They put their name on a card and they tell you to come in every six months. Yeah, that's true. I've never had. Do you think this is partially, do you have problems with your teeth?
Starting point is 00:56:21 Yes. Oh. Very much so. Okay. Never mind then. Why? I don't. Never had anything. It's all, it's gotta all just be
Starting point is 00:56:28 genetic, right? I was gonna say I thought it was because we grew up in a city that had fluoride. Oh. Oh, yeah. Yeah, no, I've had, I have fillings in most of my teeth and had to have them, like, replaced several times and stuff like that, so. Bad, bad
Starting point is 00:56:44 situation all around. But I'm good at the, I'm good. Brusher, flosser, all that stuff. Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's the one I get in trouble for. You don't floss? I try to every time. That's where I shut my brain off.
Starting point is 00:56:56 Then I'm just in the floss zone. When I'm flossing. Apparently that's the thing to do. What? Because your gums need you to floss. Yeah. Although there was just a thing that said don't do it anymore. I know, but it's too late.
Starting point is 00:57:08 I'm already on the floss track. And it makes a difference. Yeah. Growing up, I had a friend whose dad was a dental equipment salesman. Uh-huh. And- A DES? Do you remember the water pick?
Starting point is 00:57:19 Yeah. Absolutely. Big mess on my mirror. Totally unnecessary. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. Big mess on my mirror.
Starting point is 00:57:23 Totally unnecessary. Yeah. Yeah. But it's, you know, when electric toothbrushes came out, that must have been the biggest thing in, you know, modern tooth sales. But is it a water pick scenario? In another five years, are they going to be like, these electric toothbrushes are unnecessary? Well, I was told, I've been told both by different dental hygienists. Yes, electric toothbrush. No electric toothbrush.
Starting point is 00:57:48 I'm not sure it was the biggest thing because they, like, tooth cleaning is the most advertised thing on TV. It's always something that whitens or desensitizes or shaving. Shaving is up there too. Yeah, shaving's up there too. Shaving your teeth?
Starting point is 00:58:03 Shaving off, like, just to make them fangs? That's essentially what you're doing. It's Halloween again. Shave down up there too. Yeah, shaving's up there too. Shaving your teeth? Yeah. Shaving off like just to make them fangs? It's essentially what you're doing. It's Halloween again. Shave down those teeth. That's what Schick should or Gillette should do is introduce a razor that has a blade
Starting point is 00:58:14 that does your teeth too. Oh yeah. So it gets your mustache and then you just leave your mouth open. Do you think there's a seventh blade that like Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:22 Do you think there is someone at Gillette who is like an engineer and has made this super sharp blade that will never go dull. And the marketing department is just like, we don't know how to sell that. Can you just add more blades? Yeah. More blades, maybe like some sort of grip. That's another thing.
Starting point is 00:58:40 Oh, and that vibrating as well. A shaver that vibrates? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Or it has a blue strip that tells you that, or gives you moisture, apparently. And when the blue strip dries up, you get yourself a new blade, buddy. Oh, yeah. But like, I know in like... You don't have this problem.
Starting point is 00:58:56 No, no, no. Is this why you did this? Huh? Grew a beard? Yeah. Yeah. I mean, not liking shaving is part of it. Got it.
Starting point is 00:59:04 I did not like it as a ritual. But you don't like brushing your teeth now, so are you going to grow your teeth out? I might. I might grow out my natural tusks. So, yeah, I don't know. If you guys say that I'm going to get used to it, that this is just part of the hazing of the electric toothbrush movement, then I'll stay the course. I'll go the distance you know when margo before margo had teeth she loved it she would just like when i go when she was teething yeah oh sure she would just vibrate it all up and down them you know
Starting point is 00:59:37 who's terrified of them as dogs oh yeah my dog is terrified of the electric toothbrush yeah sometimes i'll get right do you use it yeah well yeah like why face with it. Do you use it? Yeah, well, yeah. Like, why do you use it on your dog? You've got a separate one for the dog. No, I just, I'll have it in my mouth, and I'll get down on the floor while doing it right beside her, and she just doesn't understand what's happening. You know, that seems mean. Yeah, that's aggressive. It's a couple seconds, guys.
Starting point is 01:00:00 It's a couple seconds. If you asked a dog what would be the most terrifying mascot for a sports team? A man with a toothbrush. Or a vacuum cleaner. The vacuum. Or a person on a skateboard. Or, yeah, or the San Fernando fireworks. Yeah, the Denver doorbells.
Starting point is 01:00:18 Should we move on to overheards? Yeah. Ty is a pedantic person. I think when he pronounces these words, it's in a very show-offy way. Gyro. Gyro. Sacrebleu. Sacrebleu.

Starting point is 01:02:40 I was at a coffee shop once this summer in sort of late August and overheard this woman talking with another woman very seriously about a relationship problem. And she said nooner probably like 15 times without realizing how ridiculous she said it. So I'll do an impression. She was like, it was so weird. I got a text from him and he was like it was so weird i like got a text from him and he was like you should come to the nooner tomorrow and i was like the nooner like i
Starting point is 01:03:09 don't that's like we just got in a huge fight and anyway he kept saying like come to the nooner come to the nooner so i was like okay fine i texted him back i said okay we'll go to the nooner so we're like at the nooner and it's like really weird because i'm like oh my god i'm at the nooner with him and he is like trying to make up with me and he's, you know, trying to watch the game. And I'm like, I'm thinking to myself like,
Starting point is 01:03:30 what the fuck am I doing at the nooner? She just kept going on and on and on. And, uh, I was just sort of keeping this score in my mind of how many times she said nooner. And that's my over. I love it.
Starting point is 01:03:44 I love it. And good act out. her. I love it. I love it. And good act out. Yeah. And it really, is that over? Is the baseball season done? Yeah, we have a really short season here. Yeah. For single A's.

Starting point is 01:04:04 with this guy and nooner, Nooner, Nooner. Oh, yeah. Just the whole boy. It would be funny if she, could we think of a funnier word than Nooner? Like Nooner is pretty good, but like. The Nooner. But, you know, he wouldn't go down them. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:24 Like a funny. Slip to go down them. Yeah. Like a funny. A slip and dip. Yeah, yeah. So he texted me and was like, can you come in the slip and dip tomorrow? Yeah, yeah. Slip and dip. Or what's a. Cougamonga.

Starting point is 01:05:33 When I got out of the SkyTrain to go see Pat and Chris and friends, there was a woman, a busker with electricity. Like she had an electric guitar and a microphone busker goes electric yeah so judas pete seger was there trying to take a an axe to her uh the mixing board was it pete seger had the guitar this machine no what he got his passengers
Starting point is 01:05:59 um anyway so this is a woman, singer songwriter was playing. Yeah. And then I went. Originals? Yeah. Oh, wow. I didn't, I didn't catch that, what she was playing at the time. Oh, so the overheard wasn't her music.
Starting point is 01:06:17 Not yet. Okay. So then I went and went to your party for, I think, uh, two hours or however long I was obliged to go. I don't know. It was really, you guys were like, no one can leave. Until we all get a selfie. Until we all do a video. Let's all put our shoes in the middle and take pictures of our shoes.
Starting point is 01:06:39 Friends. So, two hours later, I left the party. This woman's still out there playing her songs. And as I walked past her, I just heard her introduce the next song she was going to play. And I just heard her say, going to sing a song for you. This song was inspired by Celine Dion and Rene. So it wasn't written by Celine Dion. No, it's inspired by their love.
Starting point is 01:07:09 It's just their love and life together. Wow. Hey, man, that's pretty much my every day. Look, her songs are torn from the headlines, just like a Law & Order episode. I saw an ad for modern day Celine Dion. Is she still in Vegas? I don't know what this ad was for. a tour i think she's on tour but yeah but most most ads you see for her are for
Starting point is 01:07:32 not modern yeah it's on ad for like old timey she hasn't learned english yet but she in the ad she does the highest kick and i was like i don't remember that being a part of what song would she kick during oh i guess she does a cover of jump yeah like a crazy rock kick like but a very high oh yeah maybe she's doing uh might as well jump that's oh is that what that song is called? Jump. Oh. Yeah. No, she's very, she gives her. I know she gives her, but a lot of her songs don't give to kicking. Well, yeah, but no, she'll do a triumphant thing. What's her most triumphant song that has a moment that. Titanic song.
Starting point is 01:08:21 Wherever you are. Yeah. Kicks a soccer ball into the ice. There's Rod Stewart in it. I had, I'm kicking a soccer ball into the ice. It's Rod Stewart in it. I'm very flexible. Yeah. You can touch your dick. Well, with your hand.
Starting point is 01:08:35 I'm so flexible, I can touch my dick with my hand. I'm so flexible, I can touch my dick with permission. But I can kick quite high, and i was just walking in my house and i saw myself in the mirror and i decided to kick really high yeah and then i tried to kick high with my other leg and i couldn't and i was i got very sad i was like oh no it's it's all going yeah yeah and then i realized oh i just had keys in my pocket. Took them out. Super high kick. Still got the kicks. Wherever you are, boom. Take that.
Starting point is 01:09:09 Boom, lights. Flashpots. Does anybody in this room know another Celine Dion song? Yeah, that one, it's all coming back to me, back to me now. Is there a kick in it? Probably. Yeah, I guess that would be a good one to have a kick in it. I'm going uh pull her up
Starting point is 01:09:25 i mean this i feel uh oh she sings might as well kick yeah that's true yeah uh kick it kick it to the limit yeah the power of love uh power of love is a curious thing oh yeah i know that one yeah yeah back to the Future. I don't know. I pulled her. All her songs would just have these titles that you wouldn't even know what the song is. The only reason I know it's all coming back to me now is because it had a really epic music video. Right. And it was right in the pocket of when music videos were million dollar budget. But like her Vegas show.
Starting point is 01:10:03 And it was a meatloaf song as well. Yeah. Her Vegas show must be like a party, not like come here and cry. But I think people do go you know, because that was the first time they gave somebody a handjob was during the Titanic movie. Right. That's when I give someone a flip job. Do you think there's like a kitsch factor to going to Celine Dion
Starting point is 01:10:20 in Vegas? Absolutely. Going to see Britney or you know. Oh. I'm everything I am going to Celine Dion in Vegas. Absolutely. The same way they're going to see Britney or, you know, whatever. I'm everything I am. Because you love me. Swap kicks. Hi-ya. She brings out a UFC guy.

Starting point is 01:10:56 Do Vegas acts ever do mashups? Yeah. Like you have like Carrot Top visiting Celine's show. They're all buddies. I know that. Well, maybe not Celine, but I know that, you know, like Carrot Top and Chris Angel are good buddies. Sure. Same with Penn and Teller. They all hang.
Starting point is 01:11:08 Well, Penn and Teller are good buddies. Yeah. No, no. They don't talk. They take. They don't talk. Well, Teller does talk. Teller's giving the silent review.
Starting point is 01:11:16 Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho. Graham, do you have an order? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was waiting to get on the ferry to Victoria, BC. This is a boat. This is a boat. And we, myself and Ben McGinnis, who I was working with that weekend, we missed the ferry. So we had to sit in the, there's like a food court, basically.
Starting point is 01:11:40 Oh, yeah. They've set up on the ferry terminal. I know what you mean. And, I mean, it's, you know, it's a tough choice because everything in there is going to make you not feel good. Mm-hmm. But I was eating Chinese food, worst possible choice, I think. And there was a couple next to me that were, the entire time I was sitting next to them, were talking about their retainers.
Starting point is 01:12:04 The entire time I was sitting next to them, we're talking about their retainers. And the girl was talking about how she doesn't like wearing it overnight. And then the guy was like, oh, but I always do. I always wear mine overnight. And she goes, yeah, I don't. And then she had a moment and she was like, oh, I think I left my retainer at home. So they were doing all this retainer talk. And then she suddenly realized
Starting point is 01:12:29 no retainer. So you're going to have to wake up halfway through the night, put his retainer in because otherwise her teeth are going to move. What if your teeth
Starting point is 01:12:38 were so volatile that if you missed one night without your retainer? Oh boy. Anyways, so that was, she realized halfway through. I don't even have a retainer. I've been talking a big retainer. Oh, boy. Anyways, so that was, she realized halfway through. I have a retainer. I've been talking a big retainer game this whole time.
Starting point is 01:12:50 Oh, yeah? You know so much about your retainer. Where is it right now? Well, I, yeah, it's 4 a.m. What's your retainer doing? My retainer, when I was, I never wore my retainer, and I kept telling my orthodontist that I did. Yeah, sure.
Starting point is 01:13:08 Whatever. Yeah. Keep that lie alive. I was the one that made my braces and everything come off because I came back from the orthodontist, and he was like, looking good. Everything's looking great. We're right on track. We've got to add some elasticsastics or whatever yeah we're doing good yeah it's how we do on fun colors i went to my dad and i said i think we're being scammed here
Starting point is 01:13:30 because i'm gonna be honest with you i don't wear any of this shit that he tells me i have to wear even your braces like the i had a headgear and all this stuff and he said as soon as you got home you broke up your braces dad i'm not even wearing those so the next the next week my dad made an appointment and told them to take the my braces off so you're you're like an investigative you're like scams and flames i was a scams and flames good for you um but that's yeah my retainer was in its plastic thing beside my bed for like a year. I broke my retainer at one point and my parents made me pay for a new one. And they are expensive.
Starting point is 01:14:11 Because they don't keep the mold. They got to remold your face. Oh, really? They broke the mold with you. I wore mine all the time. Although, when I graduated high school, I still had my retainer and I still wore it at night. I wonder if I still have my retainer. If you had a retainer, would it still fit?
Starting point is 01:14:28 I don't know. I know what I'm doing the next time I go to my parents' house. But I never got the okay to stop wearing it or anything. No one at MIT is wearing it. Are they? Yeah. But yeah, that's what I mean. I mean, so that's what I came clean with my father and said,
Starting point is 01:14:48 this guy keeps telling us that we're making great progress and everything's working. And I'm telling you, I'm not wearing any of this stuff. And dad, he makes me take my shirt off. What's that about? Why is he always x-raying my chest? I'll put an elastic around that, too. Yeah, I just, I never kept, that was my problem is that I would, you know, because you have to pop it out to eat or whatever.
Starting point is 01:15:14 And so I just throw it in my pocket. I didn't put it in the case because if you walked around, it would rattle in the case. And I did not like that. So that's how I broke my. Attention on your retainer. Yeah, absolutely. I'm trying to. I still wear my night guard. Yeah. It's got real chomp marks on it.
Starting point is 01:15:30 I'm going to bite through it one of these days. And that means that you win. Once you bite through your, you're done. You get free dentistry for life. Your face goes on the wall of fame. Now we also have overheard sent in to us by people from all over the place Good tooth episode

Starting point is 01:16:36 But I didn't have any of it. We think we just had lemonade. Here's the question. Is an Arnold Palmer, like a traditional Arnold Palmer, does it have booze in it? No. It's just lemonade and iced tea. 50-50, yeah. Yeah, that's what I thought.
Starting point is 01:16:48 Because there was a woman in Texas who ordered one at like 8.30 in the morning next to me, and I was like, ooh. But that's still, you shouldn't be drinking that much sugar at 8.30 in the morning. But they are refreshing. Yeah, but they're not a breakfast drink. Well, you could have a booze drink. He drinks a breakfast drink. He drinks a lunch drink. Then he eats a sensible dude.
Starting point is 01:17:07 Oh, it's an Arnold. You know what it is? This is the joke. This is an Arnold Palmer with boozes called the John Daly. There it is. That's fun. Yeah. May he rest in peace.

Yeah, that's what it is. That's what I'm hearing. I'm picturing blood. Did it claw people? Well, there was the bunny in the Monty Python.

Starting point is 01:18:30 A scary bunny, like the Easter bunny horror movie? Or the Tooth Fairy horror movie? Starring Larry the Cable Guy? The Rock was in the original, and Larry the Cable Guy was in the sequel. That's a step up. For the franchise, if you say.

Starting point is 01:19:22 Yeah, a lot of Muscle Jones in there. Tooth fairy, I think, would be more scary. Agreed. I'm glad we all agree. Absolutely. This last one comes from Jonathan D. This is in Pickering, Ontario.
Starting point is 01:19:38 I just now overheard a teacher address his civics class about civic duty and action he was speaking about the wrongs done to individuals by others in society and that sometimes wrongs are truly by accident as he is explaining that a wrong a harm done to one individual to by one individual to another can truly be by accident a student interrupts to inform the class, I was an accident.
Starting point is 01:20:13 Excuse me, teacher, if I could interject. I have somewhat of expertise on this issue. I'm a bit of an accident. I'm an expert in this. Because my whole existence is. Are you an accident? Am I an accident? Aren't we all accidents?
Starting point is 01:20:28 No. I mean, cosmically speaking. Yes. Oh, sure. Well, you know, we're made of star stuff. No. If we plan to have our babies. Not the exact every minute of it.
Starting point is 01:20:42 Sort of. You're like, tonight's the night. Boom, boom, boom. And then nine months later, kaboom. Yeah, no. Nine months later, here's the kicker. Baby. When we talk about accidental wrongs in society, the first thing that came to mind is when, like, I'll accidentally step on Abby's heel and her shoe will come off.
Starting point is 01:21:02 Yep. And that's truly an accident. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I don't know. You know, like some people, it's, accident denotes something bad. Like a pale falling on your head. Yeah. You know, that's an accident. Unless it was placed there by prankster Howie Mandel.
Starting point is 01:21:22 Sure. In which case, it's not in there. In which case, take this bucket off my head so I can see the hidden camera. Oh, it's in his glasses.

My name is addy and i'm calling in with an overheard so i work at a community college but in a position that like takes me into high schools a lot so i was at one high school today and i heard half a conversation between two kids in the hallway um so I heard one kid say to the other, I would take so many chances if I lived inside a volcano. If I lived inside a volcano, I would be a bold man. Yeah. I mean, it's bold to buy real estate inside a volcano.
Starting point is 01:22:40 Sure. Because you really, you plan the market. You made that choice. Yeah. I mean, it really is that's a bubble that's going to burst oh yeah a bubble of plasma yeah of plasma isn't that is it magma magma who wait what's the plasma is a television what are the tvs made out of magma magma magma magma vox plasma plasma is blood platelets yeah yeah it's the human volcano oh sure that was my wrestling name where else could you live that would you proudly

Yeah, or he's trying to hold it in place so you don't fly away but he's sweating. Oh yeah. Or like on a game of perfection. Yes, if you live on a game of perfection.
Starting point is 01:23:54 That's all the problematic bubble? No, that's trouble. Oh yes. But pop goes perfection. I remember that from school. Here's your next phone call, Fraser. Hi, Dave and Graham. This is Linda calling from Greater Vancouver.
Starting point is 01:24:09 I teach kindergarten, and we were getting ready for the Terry Fox run. And I said to my students, oh, can anyone tell me something about Terry Fox or tell me who Terry Fox is? And one of the students raises his hand, and I asked him, and he said, oh, Terry Fox is a guy who had cancer. He hacked off his own leg. So I guess we have some work to do there. Thanks. Yeah, he was our equivalent of the guy from Moby Dick. Ishmael.
Starting point is 01:24:40 I thought you were going to say the guy from 127 Hours. Oh, yeah, but that was his arm, though. Different body part. Well, different country. Yeah, that's true. I was just thinking, actually, last night for some reason, that if you said the phrase Terry Fox Run, that for people from America, they would go. Well, they do them around the world. Do they?
Starting point is 01:24:58 But I don't think it's that famous. In the 80s, he ran across Canada. He had lost his leg to cancers. He ran across Canada. He had lost his leg to cancer and he ran across. Ran across Canada. He ran a marathon a day to raise money. But he didn't finish it. No. No, because of Thunder Bay.
Starting point is 01:25:14 Yeah. And he, they made a movie like about it. And it's like a very famous actor plays his dad in it. Whoever was driving the van. I can't remember who it is, but it's like a very famous actor plays his dad in it. Whoever was driving the van. I can't remember who it is, but it's like. Is it Leslie Nielsen? Yeah. No, that was in the parody version that came later.
Starting point is 01:25:34 Sure. But it's anyways. Yeah. That's a thing that happens. I didn't realize it. It happens around the world. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:25:41 Okay. So maybe people do know what it is. Anyways, I don't know what it is anyways i don't know what people know that kid didn't know enough yeah come on five-year-old get it together here's your final overheard hello this is dominic from denver i'm a high school english teacher and i was chaperoning a dance when uh i overheard a student say to his five or six friends, hey, everybody, put your hands in, at which point he went one, two, three,
Starting point is 01:26:12 and then they all said with a sense of childlike wonderment to the heavens, blowjobs. Yeah, they made a deal. They're packed.'re gonna all losing it american pie ourselves um how old were they uh high school yeah early high school i liked your notion of uh a dance just for the teachers maybe that's what they do on pro days. Is that, what was his notion?
Starting point is 01:26:47 Isn't that what you said? Oh, I just said a lot of these overheards. All three were teachers. Yeah. Oh, I thought you said they were chaperoning
Starting point is 01:26:52 a dance for teachers. That's what I heard. They should have a dance for teachers. It's called like McNally's Pub on Friday nights. You know who does
Starting point is 01:27:03 a great cover of Hot for Teacher? Celine Dion. Oh, yeah, yeah. She does all Van Halen's hits. But wouldn't it be? Just the David Lee Roth ones.
Starting point is 01:27:12 It would be amazing if you were a kid and you were like, oh, I forgot to get my math textbook and it's a pro day, but I think the janitor will let me in
Starting point is 01:27:21 and then you go and the teachers are having a day. In the gym? In the gym. I gotta go get my, I left my gym shorts in my locker. My mom wants to wash them. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:27:31 And then you go. What kind of dancing would it be? Grinding. They're grinding up on each other. I was imagining slow dancing with the disc, like the mirror ball. I was imagining like everybody's on like ecstasy, like an EDM rave style dancing. I'm picturing there's one, there's a couple
Starting point is 01:27:50 teachers making out in the corner. Another teacher's spiking the punch. All your dance tropes. Dance tropes and dance tropes. But the twist here, the chaperones, a couple of kids. A couple of kids gotta keep tabs on everything. School president.
Starting point is 01:28:06 We need two inches between you two yeah hands above the waist hands above the waist mr edwards what is a high school dance like while we know yeah group of boys putting their hands i think it's still the same it's got to be the same as always if everyone just i never went to a single one here's what's different. Phones. Yeah. Phones. Either you can be on a phone and pretend that you don't care that the dance is happening, or when the boys are standing on one side and the girls are standing on the other, you can text the girl.
Starting point is 01:28:33 Yeah. But I also think, too, the separation of church and state. It's important. It's important. The unified sort of supposed interest in the same kind of music is gone now, too. Oh, there's no universal hits. There's no universal hits that are across the board. Like, you know, there's probably going to play some Ariana Grande.
Starting point is 01:28:56 But when I was in high school, I didn't like, you know, the R&B that people were dancing to. No. Yeah. I was probably more niche-ified than ever. You dance to whatever the girl will dance to. Like Hotline Bling is what they're dancing to.
Starting point is 01:29:12 Yeah. Absolutely. I would put in a request for anything ska and then I'd wait. I'd wait all night and then the last song they would play is
Starting point is 01:29:19 More Than Words. Never Had To Knock On Wood. That would be the last song of the night. Alright everyone, now's your chance. Your chance to come on wood. That would be the last song of the night. All right, everyone, now's your chance. Your chance to come out and skate. They don't end every dance still with In Excess, Now Retire Us Apart?
Starting point is 01:29:33 No. No. Or More Than Words? Well, More Than Words, baby. But I think the one that was huge was... We can live! For a thousand years! So the one that was huge was... November Rain was a big one. Because it was long, gave you maximum contact time. And it was sweat.
Starting point is 01:29:55 With your dancing partner. Sweatiness. Yeah. Oh, man. Yeah. Let's go to a high school. Oh, no. Let's become teachers so we can go to a high school.
