Hi, he's Dave Schumke.
And he's Graham Clark.
And together we host Stop Podcasting Yourself.
Woo!
Hello everybody and welcome to episode number 871 of Stop Podcasting Yourself.
My name is Graham Clark and with me as always is a man who, you know what, he can get hit
with a puck at full speed and keep on skating, Mr. Dave Schumke.
I got hit with a puck at full speed this week and kept on skating.
Right in the part underneath my thigh, the under thigh. The under thigh. There's no padding.
It's very bruised and I'd love to show you all,
but I'm not gonna.
But is in professional hockey, is that area protected
or is that just not protected
no matter what gear you're wearing?
I don't know, I've never played professional hockey.
I don't know why.
You didn't, I thought you spent some time
on the Boston Bruins.
I don't, come on.
I would never.
They picked you.
I would hold up.
I would play in Russia.
No, I don't know, there's certain little bits.
I also got slashed in the hand the other day.
Shit.
In the, like, you know how the hockey gloves,
like there's like little gaps between the knuckles? Yeah. I don't know, has it got me in the hand the other day. You know how the hockey gloves, there's like little gaps between the knuckles?
I don't know, it's got me in the gap.
Jesus!
I was bleeding through my...
They're hitting you on all the technicalities.
People don't like me.
People are trying to hurt me.
They want me off the ice.
Yeah, because you're too good.
That's why.
Yeah.
Yeah, there's nothing in a rule book
that says Dave Schumpf is Catholic.
Well, I'm always biting the box with my canine teeth.
Our guest today, first time guest here on the podcast,
he hosts a show each and every week called Full Pint
every Thursday night.
He's a very funny comedian.
It's Colin Sharp.
Hello, Colin Sharp.
Hello, how you doing, Graham?
Hello.
How you doing, Dave?
Hi, Colin.
Where is the Full Pint? Yeah, where is the show, I forget. Oh yeah, it doing, Graham? How you doing, Dave? Hi, Colin. Where is this full-time?
Yeah, where is the show, I forget.
Oh yeah, it's at a brewery called Brewing August.
It's just at Third and Fur, here in Vancouver,
right near where Granville Island is and stuff.
Brewing August, it feels like it should,
is that a pun, is it trying to?
Chewing August?
Yeah, it's probably.
I mean, at the very least, it feels backwards.
Like you would expect August Brewing,
when it's Brewing August, and no, I don't know why.
Maybe it's the owner's one true love, and uh.
Yeah, it sounds like a, um, you know,
like a investigative podcast,
like Finding Richard Sibbins.
Yes.
Searching for whatever.
Brewing August.
Boxing Helena. Have either of you guys August. Boxing Helena.
Have either of you guys ever seen Boxing Helena?
No.
It's unusual.
What is it about?
It's Kim Basinger.
Kim Basinger. I know that I, you know, from the title you would think it was about the
tweet science.
No, she actually like somebody puts her in a box.
Oh!
Yeah, and that's most of the movies.
She's in the box.
Okay.
This is, there's nobody strapping gloves on.
It is just-
No, no, no.
It's not Million Dollar Baby, but also Million Dollar Baby, that could be about a lottery
winner.
See, there's all sorts of, you know-
Yeah, sure.
And the hurricane, all the famous boxing movies could be about anything.
Rocky could be about, you know, a mountain.
Yeah, exactly.
I'm more familiar with the sequel,
where there's that YouTube influencer that opens up
the stuff she gets unboxing, Helena.
Oh, I love that one.
Yeah, that was a modern day twist.
Should we get to know us?
Yeah.
Get to know us.
Colin, tell us a little story.
Tell, we have your whole life to catch up on.
Yeah.
What are you doing right now?
What beginning?
Yeah, start at the beginning, work your way through.
Now you've listened to the show before.
I have.
How did you think it would, how are we doing so far?
What did you think would be Graham's first question?
Well, I was hoping he would ask me
to start at the beginning.
So my mom and dad met around 1980.
Okay, cool.
I'm born and raised in Vancouver.
Where did they meet?
They both worked in the BC Tell building at Boundary.
Oh, the big shoe, the boot.
Yeah.
Huh, it's now the Tellis building.
Yeah.
Tellis, man, they're a force. Tellis and, it's now the talus building. Yeah, tell us man. They're a force
Tell us and Rogers. They're the only two places that get to name everything
Yeah, yeah
How come we don't have something like something silly like they have in the States like a like dinty more stew stadium
They do have so many. Yeah, it's
Because they have like crypto something like every arena and stadium in America is named after a different corporation in
Canada.
I think there are at least three named after Rogers.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, we just have the three corporations.
Yeah.
So...
But you guys both grew up here.
So you knew that stadium as GM Place, aka the garage.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Was that a big day when they switched over?
You guys like, fuck, it's over big day when they switched over you guys like fuck it's over
It's good the garage forever
Well, I would like I maybe cuz like the first time I went there
I was like six or seven it didn't even clue into me that GM was a brand
Something else I it was years later. I was like, oh General Motors, right? Oh the garage that makes sense
Yeah, and that's why you pick up your tickets
at the Chevy pickup window.
Oh.
They thought of everything.
I have a shirt from a Gwen Stefani tour,
and it's from 2007, and GM Place was one of them.
Do you just have the shirt, or did you go to that show?
No, I never got to that show.
2007, I couldn't afford tickets to a Gwen Stefani.
Right. Right?
She was on top of the world.
She was on top of the world.
Working with A-Con.
I was at my worst, yeah.
Yeah.
But you know what, we wish her the best.
She's on that show where they turn around the chairs.
X factor, I wanna say.
The voice. The voice.
Yes.
Do you enjoy any reality programming, game show or reality?
No, I stay away from like all of it.
Really?
Yeah.
Like you haven't watched even just like a season or something?
I mean, I've seen episodes here and there.
I know that my wife sometimes with her friends watches the various bachelorette, bachelors
and such.
They love it.
So they're watching this Golden Bachelorette right now,
which I fully support and I love this concept.
Older people getting together?
I think it's great.
I'm like, oh, that's really great
that it's older people on that.
And then I never watch it.
I mean, it seems like it would be more palatable
than a bunch of young people that are so dumb.
Like it feels like the Golden Bachelorette,
are they still dumb?
Or are they-
I saw like maybe five minutes of it
while my wife was watching it.
And I turn and I look and I go,
ah, they don't even look that old.
Like I was like disappointed by that.
Are there any of them like, I'm old, cold and full of mold.
They could do another like, you know, autumn years or something where it's like even, even
older, you know, people who've maybe had a couple of spouses, you know, sort of, we're
a live journey.
The all widow club.
Yeah, the widows and widowers.
I think some of them in this one are widowers.
Not enough.
Not enough.
I gotta get those numbers up. You said your wife, I didn't see a ring on your finger when
you came in. Oh, you have it on your other hand. Yeah, I can't put it on this hand right
now. For the listener, I've got a fractured finger, a little splint cast thing. That splint
is the coolest splint. I haven't seen it like, well, splints are usually straight, right?
Like it was custom made for your hand.
It absolutely was custom made.
I went to the fine folks at St.
Paul's Hospital on the third floor.
I visit them if you ever have a broken hand.
But this is it's like a a sheet of plastic that they have in this big long roll.
They cut a bit off and then put it in a water bath to warm it
up.
So that's how I like to do it.
I take a dust bath.
I'm sort of like a...
Pig Ben?
Like a chinchilla?
A chinchilla, yeah.
Yeah.
It's what makes Dave's fur so valuable.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But yeah, so they put this little sheet in the water bath, warms up, then becomes nice and flexible.
And then the surgeon guy, expert, he just looks at me.
He's not an orderly?
No, he's-
I don't know if he's a surgeon either.
Is he cutting you open?
No, he's definitely not a surgeon.
He's like a surgeon.
He gave me his business card.
I forgot all about everything he does.
Hey, next time you bust up your hand
Middle man, that's right. You just come to my house. I can bring me the business card put one stamp on it. All right
So you you busted your hand you got fitted for this
Thing yeah, and you immediately were like what I can't can't go a month without my wedding ring
I just didn't Molle I didn't want to lose it. That's true
You know like if I just put it somewhere for a month see mine
I was constantly fidgeting with mine, and it's got it's I'm begging for trouble. It's gonna roll out of my hand
It's gonna go down to sewer great. I just buy another one now and just in case I need to make this back up
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, cuz
No, even even like a week ago is watching a show and I was like fucking around with it I'll buy another one now, just in case I need to make this good. Just to back up. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah.
Because, no, even like a week ago I was watching a show and I was like fucking around with
it, I was like, oh, and these seats, they could go definitely right down between these
seats.
But still, still I do it.
Yeah, like first two months of being married, I was fiddling with it and like did fully
drop it during like watching a movie.
Yeah.
And just hear the little clang and you're like, oh, like where did it go?
Luckily it was right there, but you know,
it was a pretty full theater too.
I'm like, shit.
Oh yeah, I wonder.
I've been in a theater where somebody dropped a bottle,
like from way at the back
and you could just hear it rolling all the way down.
No, it was like on the, the underneath the seats.
So it's like this.
Wee, wee, wee, wee.
Have you seen those, like it's like an Instagram underneath the seats. So it's like this, whew, whew, whew, whew. Have you seen those, like it's like an Instagram
or TikTok channel, it's a person who just rolls
glass bottles full of different things down stairs.
Yeah, very sad.
And they smash.
Yeah, it's one of those things you don't know
that you love it until you see it.
And then you're like, this is all they wanted.
And I just love the idea that the person was like, I've been doing this for years and suddenly
this new technology came along I can share with the world.
Yeah, he's just been doing it for himself.
Just confusing all of his neighbors with how much, why are you getting rid of so much broken
glass all of the time?
Yeah, so do you need another tetanus shot?
Yeah, it's, speaking of reality TV,
I watched two episodes of Love is Blind.
Congratulations.
That movie, or movie, that show is very silly.
It's the silliest concept is like,
do you know, have you seen it?
No, I remember you explaining to me once,
that people have to, they don't get to see each other.
They don't get to see each other until they propose.
And it's hosted by Nick Lachey.
He comes in at the beginning of the series
and then vanishes.
You don't see him until, I guess he's at the end,
he does the recap.
And I remember you saying that the worst part about it is
they don't see each other,
so why not have some Uggos on there?
And they still have just good-looking people. Yeah, they have good-looking people
There's some people who get into the drama so fast like episode one
They're already like I don't know what to make of this guy and they're already falling in love
But they're so dumb. That's the great thing about this show. They're dumb. I mean a lot of them are smart. They have like
Really good jobs and you know, that's one kind of smart. Yeah, exactly. Yeah smart of the heart one genre of smart
No, they're dumb over the heart. They're dumb with this. All right. Yeah, that's true
They wish they were smart for the heart
Wonder who first sounds like
Smart and heart rhyme. Let's see what we can do with that. The heart smart. Oh, I think that's probably it.
Yeah, you know, you get the heart smart seal on our like,
you know, wheat pasta or whatever.
The only wheat pasta with a heart smart seal.
Yeah, it's like you feel like you could be that person just coming up with
it like heart and smart rhyme.
What are two other words that rhyme?
Now you're the one in charge.
You're putting it together.
Make the bean scene. Yeah. Yeah. and smart rhyme what are two other words that rhyme now you're the one in charge you're putting it together make the beans see yeah yeah yeah do you ever uh see that commercial like it's a
particular set of commercials called brand power oh yeah where's this is the woman yeah it seems
kind of like the government made them but maybe they didn't yeah and they definitely the government
yeah have any involvement but she just talks about a product, like a random product.
And she's in a store.
Yeah.
But like, yeah, she'll just be like.
It seems like she's reviewing it, but she's.
Yeah, and it's not as good as like
a regular toothpaste commercial,
but she'll just tell you about a toothpaste.
And then it's like, it's tagline is helping you buy better.
But yeah, you're right.
Sounds like a business bureau kind of thing right like is this approved by anyone at any point like
yeah I don't know man probably not now you you currently no day job you had
day job for a while currently no day job I've got like a like part-time part-time
okay so like a day or two a week.
Nice.
Which is right where I like it.
Fry cook, what do you do?
Yeah, yeah, 10 hours a week fry cook.
Just popping in work from home, all that.
I know, so yeah, so I have worked various jobs
in the good old tech industry,
so I'm just a guy behind a keyboard doing things.
Zip, sorp, I am a computer.
He just keeps typing, I am a computer over and over again
into this Word document.
Zip, sorp.
Can you code?
No, absolutely not.
I am in like kind of the strategy and design side of things.
Ah.
I know if you're using a program, I'm there to try to make it easier to use.
Okay.
And sometimes I successfully do that and sometimes I don't.
Yeah.
Well, that's having a job.
Usually you know beforehand what you'll do.
Yeah, yeah, no, I'm always, I'm always leaving.
I think this time we'll make it unsuccessful.
Yeah, I'm leaving bombs in there for sure.
Now you asked if he was a fry cook.
I recently rewatched the movie, Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
Yes.
And there's a scene in this movie
where they go to a dance party.
Well, it turns into a dance party, it's a parade.
Yeah, on the streets, yeah. So Fer party. It's a parade.
Yeah, on the streets.
Yeah.
So, Ferris Bueller's not there.
You've seen this film.
I've seen this film.
Ferris Bueller's girlfriend Sloan and his friend Cameron are chatting about Ferris.
This is where it passes the Bechdel test.
At one point, do they talk about Ferris Bueller?
Right.
But they say, what do you think Ferris will do?
And Cameron says, or like, what's's Ferris gonna do when he grows up?
And Cameron says he'll be a fry cook on Venus
Nice. I've always hated this line. I don't who cares like it tells me
Nothing about any. Yeah. No, I don't remember this scene. Does Cameron seem like he's saying that as a compliment
Right. It's is this an achievement or is it not?
It's a high-low situation here.
Ferris is so out of this world.
Yeah, that's true.
And then didn't they do an ad or like a Super Bowl ad
with him in it as adult Ferris?
And he was just like a lawyer or something.
Like he wasn't anything, he wasn't president.
That's what I feel like he was on the road to.
He wasn't a frightful convienance.
I think, yeah, well, but doesn't,
didn't John Hughes write all those movies
in like a weekend on Coke?
Really?
Yeah.
I gotta give this Coke a try.
Yeah, I know me too.
I watched a movie with my dad this weekend
that he had never seen before.
I've seen 10 times.
Were you in Calgary?
I was in Calgary, yes. I'll tell you all about it.
Welcome home.
Thank you. We watched the film, Misery. Have you guys seen Misery?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Ah, that movie rocks. So good.
It's a good cast.
She's so good in it. And the scene, not to, you know, spoiler, if you skip a couple seconds,
had where she hobbles them.
Yes.
Uh, Stephen King couldn't believe that you saw it.
He was like, I can't believe you showed that on film.
So Stephen King was even like disturbed by it.
Yeah, is Stephen King also like notably upset
at every movie that's been made based on his books?
Also notably wrote on cocaine.
Well, that's what we think of it.
Man, if I did cocaine, I would cook so many fries.
Like.
So in that movie, I remember,
because I've only seen it once,
it's the only Stephen King movie that's won an Oscar.
Oh, is it?
Kathy Bates won it.
Okay.
And I watched it like a year ago and it was,
what's his face?
James Kahn. James Kahn.
When he finishes writing his book, he has like,
he like smokes a cigarette
and orders a bottle of champagne or something.
Yeah. And that's how, that's his like thing he orders a bottle of champagne or something. Yeah.
And that's how, um, that's his like thing he does every time he finishes the book.
Yeah.
I wonder how, like, how much Stephen Kane, Stephen King, like tone down the, like,
instead of doing a bunch of cocaine.
Yeah.
Oh yeah. What do regular people do?
Cocaine. Yeah, oh yeah, what do regular people do?
But like, what if you didn't know that you're fantastic
at something while on cocaine, if you've never had cocaine?
You know what I mean?
Like maybe he's-
That's what I've been trying to tell people.
What if I'm good at something?
I just need to try.
Just give me some Coke and see if I can-
Give me like an activity table.
Yeah, let's see what I can do me like an activity table.
Let's see what I can do.
Give me some coke and a running start and I'll see what I can get done out there.
Yeah, maybe you are really good at the steeplechase or maybe you can write a book.
I don't know.
So Colin, you say you're born and raised in Vancouver.
Yeah.
Story check.
I say that.
What high school did you go to?
When I say Vancouver,
Greater Vancouver. I grew up on the North Shore.
So I went to West Vancouver Secondary School.
Okay.
How's that?
What was your mascot?
I, this is,
I always ask people that
because ours was so stupid
West Vancouver we had the West and West Vancouver Secondary School Highlanders
Just Scottish people like yeah our
Logo was just a guy holding the bagpipes
Oh not a guy cutting off another guy's head because there can only be one Highlander. Is that right? I think that's right.
Yeah. I would have supported them putting that on the wall of the gymnasium.
That would have been way more intimidating than a musician.
Yeah. Holding up a head of the principal of another school.
You repaint it every year.
Well, Prince of Wales is a school here and I think their mascot was like the Welshman.
of school here and I think their mascot was like the Welshman or like there was something Welsh. So I mean Highlanders is better than that.
Yeah.
I guess so. What was yours in high school?
The Blue Demons.
The Blue Demons. That's right.
And yours was the Beavers.
No, the Lords. Lord Beaverbrook Lords. Beaver was sitting right there and they didn't do
anything with it.
Hell, even Brooke, a nice babbling Brooke.
Oh, that would be good. What a great costume.
What a calm.
Just every sports team is just so chilled out like,
hey man, we win or lose.
We're just here to make friends.
Always in movies, I mean American movies,
going to see sports,, like high school sports is
like a thing that people do.
Oh, yeah.
Never, never in reality here in Canada.
You wouldn't go to a track meet to just watch people do track.
Yeah, everyone in town going to see the rugby game.
Even, like I went to university here as well.
I went to SFU and-
Were they still the Klansmen at the
time sure were Jesus that's a Scottish thing I'm hoping yeah yeah I basically
just get into Scottish themed schools yeah yeah wearing a plaid shirt today
at all it all adds up it all does add up but we so the SFU sports teams joined
like a low-level NCAA while I was there.
Mm hmm.
Oh, okay.
And so they started playing American schools and then the American schools would come up to play
us and they would get to SFU's campus and be like, your football field doesn't have seating.
Like, it was like something like 2015 where they were, I guess he was like,
should we
put some stands in so people can watch?
I've been reading their own chairs, you know, put some bleachers in so people can fool around
underneath.
Yeah.
Do you guys have bleachers at your high school that like folded up into the wall?
Oh, yeah.
In the gym, in the gym.
Yeah.
It was like, really stupid,
but you know, people trying to run through it
before it went all the way down.
Teens, you can't tell them anything, you know?
Have you seen those, another Instagram video
of people who try to like, you know,
in those like library racks where you spin the thing
and it closes the, people trying to get out of those in time?
Teens as well, I assume.
No, these are all elderly people.
Oh no!
Yeah, when they get smushed.
The videos are just filmed in time lapse.
Yeah.
They're just slowly hobbling out.
They're the golden bachelors, that's how they got widowed.
Did you play any high school sports?
I played basketball.
You did?
I did.
Okay, what position?
Like a shooting guard wing.
Shooting guard wing, sure, sure.
Position.
This guy knows the terms.
And like right through high school or did one year
and then gave, I did it one year and gave it up.
I didn't play for the senior teams.
I didn't play in grade 11 and 12.
Okay.
I was out, I was like, this coach is too mean.
I am outta here.
Yeah, yeah, I could see that.
Like, why do I need that in my life?
I'm not gonna go to college for basketball.
Oh, no, definitely not.
Yeah, yeah, I wonder if the coach was a,
no, my coach for basketball was, he was all right.
Guy for volleyball, he was pretty intense. Did you do high school sports? I did
Volleyball and I did basketball and I did wrestle. What position did you play?
bench warmer I think in basketball and like a guy who doesn't really touch the volleyball and
wrestling undefeated champ
Were you really, really good?
I was the weight I was, I was the lowest end of weight class that was very like large.
Like I was like I if I lost some weight I could have been in a division with people more my size, but I was just over the line.
So you just love being the underdog.
Yeah. And I mean, I didn't live up to it at all.
I got smushed, got thrown around,
had to tap out a couple of times.
That's very uncomfortable positions.
Yeah, thank you.
You didn't do that thing where they make you cut weight
to walk around with a garbage bag on.
Just run on a treadmill and saran wrap, this kind of thing.
Yeah, exactly.
I watched the thing last night. You guys know that Mike Tyson and Jake Paul going at it Yeah at the time of this release they will we will have celebrated the death of Jake Paul. I'm assuming
You think wow who's gonna inherit all those energy drinks you think Mike Tyson is
Too old for this. Yeah, I think he's in
his 60s. Yeah, but he's so big and strong. He is so big and strong and I watched there's like a
teaser documentary on Netflix. Here's the thing though, I don't think he can be too old to put a
Paul brother in his place. Yeah, you should. Nobody has so far, that's the thing because he only fights
bums. Yeah, well, that's what I've got my hopes.
This is good. People are going to listen and be like,
Dave, you were so wrong.
It's Mike Tyson who died.
Yeah. But one of them is going to die in the ring.
Oh, wouldn't it be great if they both died?
Like they both punch each other in the face
and knocked each other out.
And that's the end of the match. That'd be great.
I mean, then nobody loses, right?
The thing is if Jake Paul dies anyone every it'll be confusing as though at the funeral it'll
be like I'm Jake Paul's pulper yeah it's uh do you watch anything like that
boxing USC I watch basketball I don't watching, USC? I watch basketball.
I don't watch the fighting ones, but.
I was on my high school USC team.
Yeah, of course.
I was on my high school slap fighting team.
Oh man, that slap fight, it's a force, holy cow.
Yeah, it was all under the table.
Yeah, sure.
That's where you ended up if you weren't gonna slap it.
Yeah, for sure.
Like, did you, like, the election, we're recording this, just happened and the guy, like the president of
USC was on stage for this acceptance speech, Dana White. Oh my goodness. I think maybe Joe Rogan was
there too. It was kind of like, ah, come on, bring the whole gang down. We'll all have a good time.
I saw a photo that was like, it was Trump and Dana White and Elon like sitting down
together at like a banquet table, like in the middle of a party kind of thing.
It was just like, oh yeah, let's get these three heads together.
Was it a painting on velvet? Were they playing cards?
If those three were the Mount Rushmore, what would be the fourth?
In the Dana White, Elon Musk, Donald Trump.
Well, I mean Joe Rogan.
Oh, yes, it's Joe Rogan, yeah.
Yeah, not Milo Yiannopoulos, remember that guy?
I remember them all.
I wanna throw Roseanne in there.
Roseanne?
Oh yeah, she's a Trump guy, right?
Oh yeah.
Yeah, okay.
But I love that she was the person RFK Jr. was talking to
in that story where he was telling about the
bear that he had in the back of his car.
I don't know this story.
I didn't hear this story.
You didn't hear this?
No.
Oh, was it when you were in Europe?
Maybe.
RFK Jr. told this story this past summer.
It was like a clip that came out maybe from him about he was driving.
All the details of it didn't line up he was
driving in upstate New York or whatever and he ran over a baby bear and he was
like well I didn't want to leave it there because I wanted the meat so I put
it in the back of my car I drove to New York I'm sure I'm leaving out details
or bear meat and then I drove back into New York because I'm sure I'm leaving out details or bear meat. And then I drove back into New York
because I had a meeting.
I was having a dinner that night.
And then I realized, oh,
I'm not gonna be able to get home in time.
I have a flight, I'm leaving town.
So I drove to Central Park
and I got rid of this baby bear in there.
And then I left and there was like a new story.
He like set it up in Central Park to make it look like,
oh yeah, this bear got killed because a cyclist hit it.
Oh yeah, because he had someone,
his other detail was like,
yeah, my friend gave me this bike to throw away.
So what I did is I drove, I like,
did he say he like backed up over the bike to make it look like it hit a bear?
I love a guy that's like, I got two things to get rid of. I'm gonna go get rid of them at the same time, but not at a place you would get rid of either of them.
Yeah, they both start with B.
And it was, and in the clip, he's telling this story and in his kitchen and Roseanne is there kind of like, huh?
Like she thinks he's crazy
No, I never heard this story Wow, what a story my god
I thought the bear was gonna be not dead and would come back
And then it turned out that like the there was like actual news stories about it
Like you were getting yeah and the new story in the New York Times was written by
His cousin or like a niece or something like that. Yeah like
wow that's how deep those Kennedys go. How to be a Kennedy you know. But yeah I just to be the niece like writing the story like wow it's insane that this happened that I'm learning all this stuff
about this story that's ongoing, this barren, just,
oh yeah, Noah was your uncle.
Ten years later.
Oh, it turns out it was my weird uncle.
Now, Colin, when you got here, you said
you brought us a cocktail.
I sure did, yeah.
Now, I love that movie, so I can't wait to get one of those.
Yeah, it's Tom Cruise themed.
For goodness sakes, I got them hippie hippie shakes.
Now, what he's doing is he's got a bag
that seems to be an insulated cooler bag.
And he's pulled out three jars.
Matching jars.
Three little Mason jars.
Oh, you know what?
We usually take a picture on the podcast.
Now's a good time for that, I think.
All right.
Now tell us about what this is.
Well, I was listening to the recent episode with Abdul Aziz my friend Abdul
Mm-hmm, and he brought some nice stuff. He brought us some primes folks rhymes and primes giant thing of fruit
Yeah, and I thought hey, let's combine. Oh, there's the bubbles
and I thought let's combine drinking and fruit and
there's the bubbles. And I thought, let's combine drinking and fruit.
And so, this is, it's a drink that I like making.
It's got watermelon juice in there.
Is it like prepackaged watermelon juice
or did you juice your own watermelon?
I run watermelon through the blender and strain it.
And then I make ice cubes of it.
Then I can have a summery drink anytime. Cheers you guys. Now what else is in it? A little bit
of gin, a little bit of lemon juice, a little bit of Aperol. Oh that's nice.
Mmm. Well I like it a lot. Is this something you do, so you make a watermelon ice cubes?
Yeah I've got watermelon ice cubes in a nice little bag in the freezer.
How long have you been doing that?
Few years.
I'm speaking of fridge and freezer.
Wait, wait, wait. Sorry.
He's being very evasive.
Few years. Why? It's not weird.
What do you do? Other fruit ice cubes?
I got grapefruit juice in there.
You ever do coffee ice cubes? No.
Hmm. He'd like to speak to his lawyer. Should I have brought a list of everything I have in my freezer?
I mean, I guess like
Where did you learn about this?
Wait, do you have any aspirations of doing other ice cubes? I'll try another ice cube if you have any requests
I don't have any requests. Yeah, this is my first time learning about this. Yeah
well, it's just uh, there's like cocktails that I like that have like a specific ingredient and
it's
If you just you can't just like always keep everything in your fridge all the time. No. Like I'm not
I'm not pounding through grapefruit juice except for the half ounce of it that goes into a Hemingway Daiquiri
That's nice to have once every couple months
Do you know do you grandparents ate grapefruit every morning? Oh sure like
You'd have to it's so complicated to eat a grapefruit
To get the pulp part and you don't get much out of it. No, it's not very filling. It's it was grapefruit and
Apparently a lot of medications. Yeah, that's right.
It doesn't work with like...
Like if you're on like a heart medication or antibiotics or something?
Yeah.
Wow.
There's like, hey, don't touch a grapefruit while you're taking this.
Well, now that's all they want to do now that you said not to.
Boy, that's a real classic like 80s breakfast is a grapefruit. Yes.
With a spoon or a cantaloupe,
but the circle, the like caved in part.
I feel like a lot of
cottage cheese. Cottage cheese, yeah.
I feel like a lot of breakfast in the 80s was just a,
whatever your food item was had its own dedicated little
like bowl or thing for it.
Just like, hey, here's the thing you put the grapefruit in.
Here's the little thing you put your hard-boiled egg in.
Oh yeah, absolutely.
We definitely had egg cups.
Egg cups, they rule.
I think we still do.
And you bring them out.
Yeah, let's have some eggs.
I got, okay.
Sure, they're from Ikea, they're green.
Now I keep eggs in the freezer if you want.
Do you ever make egg ice?
Just like throw it in a pan, it's like scrambled eggs.
Now, how many, you like cocktails.
I do, yeah.
Do you, I like cocktails as well.
Do you like them?
Do you have- Too much?
Like how many days a week are you having a cocktail?
A few days a week.
And are you doing, because what I'll do is all,
if I find a weird ingredient, like a pineapple juice,
I'll be making like three or four in a week
that all use pineapple juice.
Right.
Not pineapple juice, everything.
Pineapple juice makes everything better,
but like grapefruit juice.
Pineapple juice, great.
Speaking of all things Collins fridge, this is the man who came up with the brilliant idea during
the summer to keep your deodorant in the fridge. Oh, it's a good place for it to live.
Man, oh man, that was such a game changer in the summer.
Well, we don't all have room for all this stuff in our fridges. That's why I make ice.
in the summer? Well, we don't all have room for all this stuff
in our fridges.
That's why I make ice.
He said.
Okay, so your deodorant.
Yeah, Leia lives in the fridge door.
It's just refreshing putting it on.
Do you have one in the bathroom as well
or is that your only one?
Well, I've got a, I've got like a very jelly,
like a blue Old Spice deodorant that I keep in the fridge.
I've got an antiperspirant that I keep out of the fridge.
Okay, I stay away from the antiperspirant.
Yeah, me too. I never used them before until like a couple years ago.
And then I was just like, I sweat a lot.
Yeah.
Let me try this thing out.
Because I was just like, I sweat a lot. Let me try this thing out. Because I was just like warned about it.
Like, hey, it's bad for you and all this.
And I look it up online and it's like,
oh, opinion seems pretty mixed
on if it is actually bad for you.
The Alzheimer's Society does not acknowledge the danger.
Oh, I see.
Which is the one thing I always heard is like,
aluminum in antiperspirant gives you Alzheimer's.
When I was a teen, I used antiperspirant and ruined many shirts because of it.
And then years and years later, I dug one of those shirts out and you could see all
the aluminum.
Oh, cool.
Yeah.
So it was like, it is pretty cool.
Yeah, I had the same thing.
And also I would use antiperspirant.
I even used this one, it was called certain dry
and you put it on at night.
It made my armpits so itchy,
but it would last till the next day.
Yeah.
And it was like, we had to get it in the States
cause it wasn't legal here.
Anything to declare?
No.
But I found that it's still, I was like, yeah
my armpits are dry but my face is still sweating. I'm still sweating, it's just
not coming out of my armpit. Maybe there's more even, it's getting pushed in.
Border guards like, hey, hey, lift your arms up. Let me see. When I finally
bought the anti-purse brand, I just like went and got it at like a pharmacy
or whatever, and as I'm checking out the cashier, I was just like, hey, just so you know, you
grabbed antiperspirant, not anti-deodorant.
Not like deodorant.
Anti-deodorant.
Anti-deodorant.
That's odorant.
That's just.
Oh, shit.
Oh, no.
I picked the wrong one! But I've never had a cashier at the pharmacy be like,
Uh, are you sure? Like that's...
Yes, frequently I'll buy the wrong thing and then I'll just be mad.
Yeah.
Home Depot especially.
Oh boy.
You know, these screws are just for wood.
Well, I'm gonna put them in glass.
I'm trying to screw through my window. Do you keep anything else weird in your fridge? His rake. Because I don't
know if this is weird but we do, you know, our freezer is full of batteries. Oh
yeah, the battery. I had a friend who- What is the reason for this?
Apparently they last longer.
Okay, these are new batteries.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay.
Oh, instead of getting rid of them,
you just put them in your freezer.
And my friend used to,
his family owned like a photo developing place,
and they would keep their film in the fridge.
We did that as a youngster. I remember that when I was a kid growing up, we would have the film in the fridge. We did that as a youngster. I remember that when I was a kid growing up.
We would have the film in the fridge.
Yeah.
But now I'm like, there must be some other weird stuff
I keep in there, but to me it's just normal.
Yeah, but you know deodorant's weird.
I know it's unique.
Sure, okay.
So I'm sort of.
I've had worldwide support.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Do you even have it in the winter in that?
Yeah, yeah.
Oh really, I heat mine up in the winter,
I put it in the oven.
Yeah.
Right.
It keeps it in that drawer under the oven.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh man, that drawer never gets seen,
but is it allowed when you pull it out?
Yeah.
Oh shit.
In the manual, they say it's not for storing
pots and pans.
Well, where I'm supposed to put them.
They're wrong about that.
It's a warming drawer.
I remember like a couple of years ago on the Simpsons,
they had a gag where Bart was talking about missing
at the Flanders place.
And Bart says, remember how mom would put our underwear
in the microwave on a cold day?
I tried it, and you know what?
Feels great. Effective.
Yeah. Don't do it with a poly, you know,
it'll melt the polyester, but it's nice.
Remember when Kramer had them put all his clothes
in the pizza oven?
But you guys should try this underwear
in the microwave trick.
As long as you got some cotton.
I, well, speaking of antiperspirant, my butt is where most of my perspiration happens.
I do not need more heat there.
Oh, I see.
Yes, of course.
Like sometimes my car, sometimes I'll accidentally turn on the seat heater in my car and I hate
it.
Too hot. Too hot. I'm a little, I'm a little burnished down there.
Been in one of these newer cars that has a seat cooler?
I have not, I just wanna know if it actually works.
Seat cooler?
Yeah.
On a hot day, seat cooler.
Yeah.
Okay.
That sounds like the dream.
I'm like you, I'm just sweating out my butt.
Sure.
And other stuff comes in my butt too, make no mistake.
Yeah.
Look, my butt is a multi-fluid place.
My butt is, it contains multitudes.
Apparently the new BMWs,
now you have to pay a subscription fee
to use the seatat Eaters.
What?
That's disgusting.
Yeah.
And they're just, that's what everything's gonna become.
It's gonna be subscription, like,
you don't own anything anymore.
And you're gonna have to have one to like order Wendy's.
There'll be like a Wendy's.
Here's why, I take the bus,
somebody else warmed up the seat for me.
Yeah.
That's fine.
That's a good feeling.
I mean, getting on a bus and then there's being a seat for you. No, no better feeling. I know already warmed
up. It already has liquids on it. Yeah, everything's fine. I know. That's why when I'm choosing
which BMW to drive in the morning, I'm like, okay, I'll get I'll drive one of the older
ones because I have a seat heaters that yeah, you want to buy that, you know, while you
still can. They'll just keep coming out with worse and worse buy that you know while you still can they'll just
keep coming out with the worse and worse seats you know mm-hmm I remember when I
was when we were looking for a used car a couple years ago BMWs were so cheap
because I think they're bad reputation bad reputation and then they're like
they cost so much to service yeah I, I remember talking to a guy once
about how all BMW drivers are assholes.
And he's like, I drive a BMW.
He's like, well, I don't know what to tell you.
Like, it's science.
The evidence isn't in your favor, my guy.
Yeah, yeah.
I don't know why, why is it BMW?
So I was, I remember telling,
like when Abby was learning to drive,
I remember being like, okay, now change lanes.
Well, don't change lanes yet.
That's a BMW.
They will not let you in.
They will not let you change lanes.
When that guy goes by, then change lanes.
But why, is it the money bracket that it's in
attracts assholes or?
Well, there are plenty of very nice Rolls Royce drivers.
I don't know.
I think they're more posh, the Rolls Royce drivers? I think they're more posh, the Rolls Royce.
I feel like I've noticed, like with Tesla drivers too, a lot of the same thing. And
I wonder if it's that level of car where it's a much nicer car, but it's like the first
accessible nice car. Like once someone is driving a Rolls Royce, well first of
all they're not driving it. It's someone that works for them driving it.
And like the BMW, the Tesla is just an angry guy that thought he was the
king of the road. Plenty of listeners listening in BMWs and Teslas and you
know what we love you. We just want to, use your signal next time. You're great. Yeah. You're not the problem.
You're the exception.
The yeah, because pretty much every time that I take an Uber in the city, it's a Tesla.
And I don't know why.
I don't know why that's all I figured out.
The the door, the doors.
Oh, I was the push in From the outside or from the inside?
I was in a Tesla for the first time last week and I confused the entire time.
Yeah.
They're nice to ride in.
They're quiet and...
Yeah, like the door, like it lit up on the outside of the door, but that wasn't...
There was a little LED light, but that wasn't what you pushed and I...
And the guy refused to tell you how to get out.
You live here now. I'm starting a ride over again and you're going to have to pay me.
I'm going to really heat up the seat this time.
Next guy gets in. I didn't get an Uber pool.
I got an Uber in St. Albert, Alberta, and there's no such fancy trying to present a
clean and fancy vehicle. It was very much a hockey bag in the back.
I wonder about small towns,
because when we visit
Gabriel Island quite a bit,
and there's one taxi on the island,
and I wonder what the Uber situation is.
I mean, you could just have it and be at home,
and if it goes off, you'll be like, yeah, I'll just drive it and be at home and if it goes off, you're like, yeah, I'll
just drive out and pick the person up.
But now I feel like the last couple of times I've taken a cab, I've been really hosed.
Like I really, they've taken me on a circuitous route and-
Or it's because you're a tourist.
Yeah, I do always wear that camera around my neck like an idiot and a bucket hat.
Well, that's because they keep driving you as long as you're answering all the questions correctly. Yeah, I do always wear that camera around my neck like an idiot and a bucket hat.
Well, that's because they keep driving you as long as you're answering all the questions correctly. So right. Oh shit. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah What was the cash cab cash cab and he was called? Oh, that's not knowable. I feel like it was Adam something
Probably was that a Canadian show or was there were there? I think there was a Canadian version of the show.
Now I'm going to look it up and the answer to
Cash Cab Host is Adam Grow.
Adam Grow.
Adam Grow.
And it's just a Canadian show?
Well, I can't look everything up right now.
It must have been American.
They made fun of it on 30 Rock.
Yeah, Cash Cab American Show is the Wikipedia entry.
Okay.
But there was, they did a Vancouver version and they killed someone.
Yeah, they ran somebody over.
No way.
Yeah.
Well, RIP.
Yeah.
Oh, you getting, you getting a lot of ads for Wikipedia?
Donate to Wikipedia? Getting them everywhere. No, you getting a lot of ads for Wikipedia, donate to Wikipedia?
Getting them everywhere.
No, I just opened Wikipedia.
That's the first one I've seen.
Should we donate to Wikipedia?
Have you ever donated to Wikipedia?
Yeah, I've donated to it every year.
Because I use it more than literally any other website.
I use it every day.
And they're only asking for like 15 bucks.
No, they're asking for $2.75.
Wow, then I'm leaving them a big tip.
$2.75 or other.
Or other, sure.
I do a 15, you know, keep that thing humming.
That's great, thank you.
Thank you for supporting me.
So I won't.
Oh yeah, knowing that you've done it.
Yeah.
You're more relaxed.
Wow, that's like five from all three of us.
Wow. Yeah, that's true.
I'll consider that. I'll put both of your names on the card.
Could I get a third of that tax receipt?
Yeah, could I please get a third?
You betcha. I'll print one out for you.
Oh, man.
I finished my cocktail.
What do you call this thing?
Is there a name to it?
The website I found it on called it The Merchant's Wife.
The Merchant's Wife.
And every cocktail has some insane name
that doesn't mean anything, so.
Yeah, I love people who are like mixologists.
I think they're fascinating people.
Like I wish every bar I go to I could buy like some
Local cocktail or whatever, but they're usually like
22 to 28 dollars. Yeah. Yeah, so it's like fun, but that's why it's nice to drink at home
It's the best turn on your favorite show love is blind
I really like cocktail as I'm making dinner because I find after seven o'clock,
I don't, anything I drink, I feel the next morning.
Yeah. Right. Yeah.
Yeah, I had a couple of drinks the other night
and I was like, what were you thinking, man?
It's the middle of the week.
But it was a birthday party, so what can you do, right?
It was a good time. It was a good time.
Wait, were you both there?
Yeah.
Ask us, Erica Sigurdsson's 50th birthday.
Oh my God, thanks for the invite, Erica.
Can I guess where it was?
I think you could.
You're correct.
With the Sylvia Hotel?
That is correct.
You're absolutely right.
I think when Erica dies, she will haunt the Sylvia Hotel.
Is it already haunted?
It might already be haunted,
but just because it's haunted by It might already be haunted.
Just because it's haunted by one person doesn't mean there should be another person haunted.
At least one per floor.
I think that Ivy is just going to start growing up her soon, just covering them too.
Oh yeah, the famous Ivy.
But it was very funny because she bought balloons on the assumption that her husband Jay was
not going to buy balloons. And he
bought balloons that were fantastic. And the ones that she bought were like, they looked
like gender reveal party. Absolutely. They're like pink and blue and they sucked. Did you
know that? She admitted like, she's like, this is the one I picked. And his were like
mylar and they said happy birthday. Once that said happy birthday on them, ones that spelled out 50th.
Yeah, he did.
Spelled out Robin Thicke has a big dick.
He does?
Shit.
Well, according to the Blurred Lines video, can you believe that video existed?
Remember when they jammed together on the MTV Video Awards?
Who jammed together? Robin Thicke and Miley Cyrus.
Miley Cyrus, right, and he was dressed as Beetlejuice.
Beetlejuice, that's right.
She was dressed as Beetlejuice too, and she had just invented twerking.
Oh yeah, that's right, she invented twerking.
This is a part of our heritage.
But in that video, there's a nude version of that video, or like a video where everyone's
topless.
All the models are topless like not Robin Thicke
He's a censored version of it. There's an uncensored version of it. I didn't know about the censored for oh really
Yeah, no, there's there's the censored and in this is great in the real family friendly in the Pharrell biopic
You see the Lego boobs
Apparently not into the, not bad.
Same with the Robbie.
Robbie Williams as a monkey.
Yeah, they said both of them are very well received.
Now I heard, okay, so there was this Robbie Williams
as a monkey biopic.
Pharrell Williams?
Yeah.
Yeah, Pharrell Williams.
What's his last name? Williams? Yeah, Williams. Robbie Williams and Pharrell Williams. What's his last name? Williams?
Yeah, Williams.
Robbie Williams and Pharrell Williams.
No, that can't be right.
Is it Pharrell Williams?
I'm pretty sure.
Adam Grohl?
Let's get Graham's 15 bucks worth.
Pharrell Williams, the writer of,
ba-da-ba-ba-ba, I'm loving it.
All right.
Founding member of any idea of the Neptunes.
They're both Williams's.
Williams.
Huh.
I, um, that's really putting me off my game now.
Or it could be the merchant's wife.
They both have biopics that are weird.
I then saw a news story about how there will be a Phil Collins biopic that takes place in the Grand
Theft Auto, the Miami version universe.
That isn't true.
You're making that up.
And then I was like, oh, that's so weird.
I've Googled it since.
It doesn't exist.
I don't know where I saw that.
Did I dream it?
You must have dreamed it.
Yeah.
Because wasn't in one of the Grand Theft Auto's
like you could go into a comedy club
and Ricky Gervais would be doing standup in it.
That's sort of where he got his start.
Yeah.
Yeah, he worked that circuit for years.
Just worked that same two minute cut scene
worth of jokes again and again.
Can you imagine like somebody who starts
their standup career on the internet and then somebody
invites them to a live comic book?
They lose their mind.
Because they're sitting at home telling jokes.
Well, Ricky Gervais went from, he was famous.
His first live shows, Louis C.K. opened for him at theaters.
So yeah, but I just like the idea of playing a video game
and being like, hmm, I hear there's a way
I can have sex in this video game
or I can see Ricky Gervais do standup.
Or according to your dream, Phil Collins.
Yeah, Phil Collins doing standup.
I would like that if you just,
in the next Grand Theft Auto,
you just go into a movie theater this time.
You can watch a two hour feature. Just a full two hour feature in the middle of your video. I love that if you just in the in the next Grand Theft Auto you just go into a movie theater at this time You watch a two-hour feature just a full two-hour feature in the middle of your video
I love that. Is that not a thing that you can do assume that's a thing you got a whole two hours. Oh
Not in Grand Theft Auto. I think I'm just thinking of like
Meta or whatever. Oh, you're thinking of putting on the your your metaverse goggles or whatever. They're called. Yeah
What like the glasses.
How the hell are they supposed to work?
Cause like, it's just.
The new ones that are like the new,
are they like a Google glasses?
You work in tech two days a week.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Do you have any insider knowledge?
I haven't used them.
I haven't, well, because there's the Apple ones.
Apple goggles, Apple Glass.
But there's ones that you can wear.
The Apple goggles are the ones you walk around the world in them,
or you just like...
You theoretically can, because they're supposed to be...
The whole thing is a screen, but it's got a see-through function to it.
So there's a setting you can have where it's like, boom,
you are just like, all you can see is a movie or you have a version of these Ray-Ban
Yeah, the Ray-Ban just came out and they they look fine. They look like they look normal. Yeah
Yeah, but I don't get it. Like what is
How do you look at that and be like, oh I get that stores closed
Well, I go to the store and be like,
what are the hours of that store?
Okay.
Closed.
But look, we're all gonna have to get used to them
because they're on their way no matter what it seems.
And people are gonna be like,
can you take this off during sex?
No, the Rayman meta glasses.
Actually, I have to put on another pair
for what I wanna do.
Actually, it's kinda got a bit of a tutorial that I know you need to stop for a second you need to
catch up to this tutorial yeah I just don't get like I know in movies minority
report and whatnot it's grabbing stuff out of the air and moving it Tony Stark does a lot of that. So that's the thing
that the Apple one can do like you can do there's gestures that it contracts off
by my computer yeah zips up yeah yeah so you do all the gestures and then it
writes in the Google Doc for you but I think the the Ray-Ban ones is just like
a like a heads-up display like it can show info at you
But you can do whatever wiggly dance you want with your arms. It won't notice
But you don't need a phone because you got to keep some of your movement secret from the computer
What about the ones that I do like Jagger?
They have moves like yeah. Yeah now you said a heads-up display when you hear the word heads up. What do you think?
Seven up. Oh, okay. Yeah, I think of what someone yells when a football up display. When you hear the word heads up, what do you think? Seven up. Oh, okay.
I think of what someone yells
when a football's about to hit you.
Heads up!
Yeah, whenever that gets yelled,
I inevitably will turn into the football as opposed to...
Oh yeah, there's no better way to guarantee
I'm getting one to the dome.
Yeah.
Bad football player.
Probably why I never...
I did actually make the team and then they were like,
see you at seven tomorrow.
I was like, fuck you will.
AM?
Yeah, yeah.
AM.
What about what happened to these Friday night lights
I've heard about?
I would wonder if Calgary high school football
would have lights.
I feel like nobody's going to see them at night.
So maybe it's all just at 4 p.m., you know?
Yeah.
Yeah, I don't know.
Well, if I was to try to figure out that question,
I would ask you, so if you don't know.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah, find another source, I guess.
Wasn't it like, was it Wrigley Field
that didn't have lights until like 1990 or something?
That sounds familiar, yeah.
So all their games were day games.
Speaking of stadiums named after corporations.
That's been a long stand.
Like I wonder how big Wrigley still is.
Or is it just called Wrigley Field and Wrigley's not a owner anywhere?
I don't know if they're anyone.
I don't know who owns it.
When was the last time you had some Wrigley gum?
Probably been a couple of years at the very least.
Well, I just had my skis shined up,
grabbed a stick of Juicy Fruit.
Go on, what would you do first?
Well, take a sniff, pull it out.
And in the movie about the women who played baseball,
it was Harvey Field.
Harvey Field, and that was the type of gum as well?
It's a type of chocolate bar.
League of their own, we're talking League of their own. We're in a league of their own.
You guys, you're a baseball movie fan.
I feel like what is going to ask me is anyone ever looked better than Gina Davis in that
movie?
No.
No one has ever looked more beautiful than Gina Davis in that movie.
Yeah, it's pretty.
She's very good looking.
She's on top of her game.
She is, yeah.
Or Carla Gugino in that Bon Jovi video.
Colin, prettiest girl in a movie and or music video and or television show.
I mean, my first thought was talking about who looks best in a baseball movie and,
God, my first thought was Robert Redford
running those bases yeah while the lights explode behind him and uh uh we
talked to an electrician to ask him would this really happen I like to John
Goodman in babe no babe was the big of the city. The babe is... no, I never saw it.
Not for... I mean, not one.
I think there's a scene where he has...
group sex.
I believe one of my childhood friends said that there was a scene where his wife comes in and is like,
Three women at one time, you animal!
Yeah. comes in and is like three women at one time you animal yeah what was his he had
a couple nicknames like the big Bambi the old childish Gambino was he the
salt in the swing was that him he was the Sultan of swing the Sultan of swat
so the swat Sultan of swing was a dire straight song. Yeah, this all adds up.
I believe there was, he was the great Bambino.
Right.
And he was the babe.
These are all things they repeated to the kid
in the sandlot who didn't know who babe Ruth was.
Right, and whenever he would have an orgy,
he would yellow Bambino when he was done.
Yeah.
He would point. He would point to the- Right before- He would call Bambino when he was done. Yeah He would he would point your point to them right before you would call this shot
I'm gonna ruin that wall
Yeah, do you baseball ever just just basketball I never followed baseball I like going to a Canadians game and then it's a fun sport to watch yeah I'll even oh I'll watch it
on TV every now I watch the World Series and that's pretty much it every year
it's this that this time of year yeah it's a month ago I was doing a show when
the final game was being played and somebody told me like was it the Dodgers
that won Dodgers won the World Series and I played and somebody told me like was it the Dodgers that won?
Dodges won the World Series and I was like the World Series like doesn't that
Start a month from now. Like I don't know anything about World Series. It actually ended in October. Yeah. Yeah Yeah, it's been ending in November the last few years. This is so boring
boring. Because there's like a few weeks where all four major sports overlap.
Oh shit, okay.
Is that when you get contract March Madness?
That's when you contract March Madness in late October.
Dave, what's going on with you, man?
Oh my god, don't call on me.
Teacher.
Teacher, I don't have anything.
I didn't do anything this summer.
Well, we were talking about how I watched
the Ferris Bueller's Day Off a few weeks ago.
Also- Favorite scene?
Favorite scene?
Yeah, what's your favorite scene in Ferris Bueller?
Favorite scene in Ferris Bueller?
Yeah, like the dance parade
or them going to the art gallery or, you know, I'm, what's
his name?
The Aperoman?
The Aperoman of Chicago?
Yeah.
I like opening scene.
When he's just camera talking, talking about isms and stuff.
I like when he talks on the screen.
Mohawking his hair fresh out of the shower.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's fun, it's charming, and then Matthew Brodyk never did anything like that ever again
Hmm, not even an inspector gadget. Mmm. He talks he narrates election
Yeah, he does. He's the narrator in a lecture. Yeah, but different character altogether. Mm-hmm
I
Yeah, I like I like the chase home.
I like. Yeah, the chase home is good.
He stops and introduces himself to the girls.
Sunbathing girls.
Something people do in Chicago all the time.
June, I'm sure.
Or may also the the
end scene where the boss or principal has to go on the bus and the kid offers him gummy bears.
My favorite moment is when she kicks him in the face.
It's so funny, she kicks him so many times in the face.
Also, we were watching it
and I always thought she was his older sister,
but she's gotta be younger
because he's graduating high school.
That's right, huh.
Oh, yeah, huh, yeah.
And then they dated in real life.
Really?
And he killed someone.
With his car.
With his car while she was a passenger.
Probably put some spanner in the work.
Some strain on the relationship.
Put some hair on your chest.
Are we talking about the same thing?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, eating broccoli.
Anyway, so we watched that.
Did you watch it with the youngins? We had watched it with the youngins
prior and then we visited
Abby's parents and
They have an old
from when they lived in Europe and they didn't have cable they had like
Hundreds of VHS is and a TV that's a VHS player. Wow.
So the kids, for a few nights, were watching like,
movies, they only picked movies they had already seen.
But they would fall asleep to Jurassic Park.
I was gonna say, was Jurassic Park one of them?
Yeah.
That's a classic, have they seen Wayne's World?
I feel like that was a VHS everybody had.
Yeah, well everyone knows.
Anything out of the Disney vault?
Of course. Yeah, everything everyone. Anything out of the Disney vault? Of course.
Yeah.
Everything's been unvaulted.
Were they in the cases, the like unique Disney puffed out?
They might've been, but of Wayne's World,
of course we all got from McDonald's.
Yeah, Wayne's World, oh man.
Party time excellent, I guess that's all you can say about it.
When Wayne's World, are you too young to remember
when McDonald's sold Wayne's World, Adams family and ghost ghost and Charlotte's web my my early
McDonald's memories are
The commemorative cups from Batman forever, right? Yeah, that's the glass mug last ones of which I still have them
Wow, all of them. I've got I've got just the Batman
two of them though,'ve got just the Batman. Just the Batman.
Two of them, though.
I got two Batmans.
The two-faced one, the handle was a coin.
It was a bunch of coins because he flips a coin all the time.
And then the Riddler one, it was just a big question
mark for the whole handle.
Which is what you dressed as for Halloween.
On your show, yeah.
The Riddler.
You dressed as the mug.
Mug man.
It's a tribute to the mug.
Yeah, I dressed as the McDonald's cashier handing.
Yeah.
But now you have a fallback costume
that you can always.
Oh, I went and bought the full Riddler suit,
question marks on all of it.
And I just.
And the cane.
I got the cane and now I'm just ready anytime.
Or you could be Matthew Lesko,
the guy from those infomercials.
Oh yeah, right.
He just was question mark.
I was like, aren't they dollar signs? He could just black and white This was question mark. I was like aren't they
dollar signs? If you just black and white the photo of me I could be any of them. Yeah this guy.
Yeah. Yeah. I forget what his deal was. Eh he probably got canceled. But it is interesting,
like the the costume is just like a cheap suit from Spirit Halloween and it comes with uh with
this with the the jacket and the pants and a little purple tie. But
then to just finish wearing it, I'm like, oh, I got to wear a shirt under it. And I'm
just wearing the white shirt that I wore when I got married.
Shirt?
Like, it just doesn't...
Then it kind of makes you think...
Why does this have to be part of a Halloween costume?
Yeah. It makes you think, oh, why didn't I wear this whole damn suit when I got married?
Anyway, so.
Watching Ferris wheel there.
Watching Ferris wheel, loving it.
But then we also watched,
and this is something with the kids,
I watched for the first time, my favorite movie.
Ooh.
Moneyball?
Seven.
Tar?
These are all my favorite movies.
Trading Day. Bridge Over the River Kw day? Bridge Over the River Kwai?
Bridge On the River Kwai.
80s movie, 80s movie.
Oh, 80s, not Top Gun.
Let's say 1985.
Back to the Future.
Yes.
Yeah, back to the Future.
Watch that for the first time with the children.
And?
One of them left, but the other one.
Well, that one's in my bad books forever.
Yeah.
But it was like some, you know, we'll watch movies.
They're getting older.
The kids are getting older, so they get things.
Yeah.
And you don't have to explain as much.
So I haven't had to explain much about movies recently, but this one I felt I had to explain
so much about both 1955 and
1985 yeah like I didn't have to explain plot like she got that oh yeah that's
his mom he's and he's right he's like gonna have to pretend to kiss her or
whatever yeah well as long as you get that you get most of what's going on in
the movie but the all the like okay so Ronald Reagan is the president in 1985, but in 1955, that's
unthinkable.
Right.
Yeah.
And that doesn't he do like a very funny, who's secretary of state?
Like, who's the first lady?
Jane Wyman?
Yeah, was it there was a date in the last few years where it was the distance between 1985 to
1955.
And it's actually closer 2000 whatever to yeah, 19.
I guess that would have been like 2015.
2015 was when Back to the Future 2 takes place.
Oh, shit.
So we've passed that without our hover cars.
Well, we do have hover boards.
Yeah, we have our boards and they're perfect
and they were exactly what was promised.
I watched a video of the guy who played Biff.
And he- Tom Wilson.
Tom Wilson.
He did some comedy for a while.
Does this sound funny?
I think he still does. He does a song.
I just watched the song and the song is really funny.
It's everything you want that song to be.
If you haven't seen it, it's about the things that he says to everybody who asks.
It's all the questions people ask him.
Yeah. And you know, was Michael J. Fox nice?
He's nice, yes.
Yeah. Thomas F. Wilson. Did he ever do anything else then that's true
He was probably one of those guys where it's like well your Biff like your Biff forever, right?
Like maybe as he gets like an old man, but he was old Biff too
So you can't you know like Henry Winkler probably for the longest time was the Fonz. And then he was able to age and be at other things.
But there's, every time I watch the movie,
there's always like, there's all these questions
that people have brought up about like,
wait, this doesn't make sense about Back to the Future.
It's like, okay, so 30 years later,
they're just like, they've hired Biff
who was sexually assaulting you 30 years ago. He's now, I
realize the power dynamic has changed and he's now working for you. Yeah. But
he's a successful small business owner still. I hadn't watched Back to the Future
for a long time like even for like I hadn't watched it for a first time. It
was just one of those ones that existed and I felt like I knew everything that happened in it. Yeah. Yeah. I was kind of
like I think I kind of missed the boat on this and then I finally watched it a
few years ago and yeah everything boom boom boom progressed as normal. I was
like yep this is great fun time except for at the beginning I was like this
movie is kicked off by Libyan terrorists. Yeah. yeah. That's the one part of it that just hadn't
seeped into my brain. Yeah, it's they're driving a VW bus for some reason. Yeah. Yeah, it's
some of the things don't but the one thing that I just noticed this time that doesn't add up is
and factor listeners are like, wait, this didn't add up for you 10 years ago when you what
and factor listeners are like wait this didn't add up for you ten years ago when you what you brought this up before but like at the start of the movie Marty
McFly is with his loser family yeah they're all his dad has a whatever dead
end job his mom's an alcoholic his uncle's in jail they have a big cake yeah
I don't think that really changes in the says the kid's in the crib and he goes, see these bars?
Yeah, he just gives them.
And then his sister can't find a date
and his brother works at Burger King
and is about to get on the bus.
Yeah.
And then 30 years later, they're all successful now,
except they're all having breakfast together at their
parents house like the brothers a lawyer now just bought by my parents on the
way to work yeah and his sister is also the parents house but has a bunch of
dates yeah and it's also like I feel like probably the the new rich house
they're in is the exact same dimensions as the old house yeah cuz he the exact same house. Yeah, because he wakes up in the same bed.
That's right. But it's like nice.
Except now they've got
he's got a newspaper and a briefcase.
I feel like the brother.
Well, now he's got a Toyota four by four.
Oh, yeah. Then he's going to have sex in the back.
You're going to have sex in the back.
Oh, no. The bed. Yeah.
I don't know the parts of a truck.
The bed, the cab is the cab, the bed, the cab. What's the front? The cab, the cab. OK, he's going to have sex parts of a truck. The bed, the cab. Is the cab the bed?
The cab, what's the front?
The cab. The cab.
Okay, he's gonna have sex all over that truck.
Under it.
And forever I had a joke about it
where the biggest thing is that
when he comes back to the future,
of course he like got them together
and then they don't recognize him as Calvin Klein that they went to school.
Yeah. Also, his mom had a crush on him. Yeah. And so the dad wouldn't be like, hey, wait,
our son looks like that guy you had a crush on. Yeah. But yeah, it's definitely like,
it's just one of those things. You just have to let it go or else you're gonna just drive yourself insane you like a try time traveling film yeah I
mean I like I like back to the future I I like I haven't seen it in a while the
first one that comes to mind for some reason is a looper Oh I had a fun time
watching looper I watched it the once when I get out yeah I've watched it a
couple times and they the way they do away with the
explanations of the travel. Oh, Edge of Tomorrow. Oh, it's so much fun. Yeah. I like, not only is that a movie where they keep going back and, you know,
kind of groundhog day ask, hey, keep repeating this moment. I watched it front to back the first time and then immediately just, I was like, you know what, let's keep going, and just push play again.
Wow. Really?
I was like, I wanna see this.
30 times in a row wasn't enough of experiencing that fight.
Yeah. I wanna do 60.
That's, I'm, man, what's a movie where I just saw it
and I wanted to see it right again?
Probably Napoleon Dynamite, thought it was so funny.
Like, there was nothing like it at the time.
It was the funniest, silliest,
and then it was like the hand dancing club.
That was one of those in my school.
Oh yeah.
Making the birds and stuff, yeah.
There was a couple of gals who did that.
You're gonna be, once you go to the hand clinic,
you're gonna be all better at that.
Oh yeah, there are gonna be people in the room
that are doing, try and make the bird,
try and make the bird.
Yeah, pop the little splint off.
Like, am I ready for my recital?
But yeah, all the best to the Napoleon Dynamite.
Yeah, all the best to everyone involved
in the movies of 2004.
Do you think they'd like Napoleon Dynamite?
That's on the list.
It's pretty silly.
Pretty silly, but I worry it's got,
it's too boring in some parts
Yeah, I had a big buy into I went and saw it several times in the theater. Mm-hmm
I remember I saw so many movies in the theater that year
Here's the list here. We go mean girls shit anchorman. Yeah, Wow
Napoleon dynamite
This is great. Collateral. What an exciting list.
Collateral is Tom Cruise.
Tom Cruise.
Jamie Foxx.
The Manchurian Candidate.
Ooh, I haven't seen that.
Who was in that?
Denzel, Leo Schreiber.
Directed by Jonathan Demme.
Oh, shit, okay.
That might've been it.
Yeah, some years I hit all the greats,
but I feel like the last, let's say, decade, I
haven't seen any of the Oscar winner movies.
Like, maybe one I caught.
I, especially only being part-time in the day job, I'm catching all of them.
Like, last year, once the Best Picture nominees for the Oscars were announced.
Even once they were announced, I was like, I'd already seen all of them.
Really? Yeah.
So you're like, right? Like movies every day.
This guy movies. Yeah.
I'm rolling in them.
I watched a Nora earlier this week. It was really great.
Really great.
What is it? Oh, you don't know it?
No. Oh, you got to see a Nora.
I only know love is blind.
That's all I have. My brain can hold right now. Here's what I know it? No. Oh, you got to see it, Nora. I only know love is blind. That's all my brain can hold right now.
Here's what I know about Nora.
The guy who made the Florida Project.
Oh yeah, that's right.
The guy?
Yeah, yeah, Sean Baker.
And rich dude marries a sex worker.
Anything else?
They've never made a movie about that before. I mean there's a few other things
happen in the movie. If that's true. And his family or he's like a gangster?
It is the young son of a Russian oligarch that is in the states and takes
a shining to a woman at a strip club and... can say that they haven't you know what I
mean hey we've we've all been in all a gark son yeah and yeah my dad's a gark
what are you some kind of gark well I'm not a gark my dad's a gark yeah my dad
invented paperclip but it was good yeah it's really it's really great you think
it's gonna what's your best picture favorite at this point? Well there's
like who do I think will win Best Picture or who would I give Best Picture to? You know what?
Neither. Neither. Great. Fantastic. Both. From the ones I... it seems like
Enora's got a pretty good shot of winning it as maybe I love the Florida project
Conclave. Oh, yeah, you see it. I did see it. It's good the clave. Yeah, I see the clave
That's not the clave I got right in that clave that ray finds in the concrete. Yeah refines in there. You got Stanley Tucci
The tuch everything he do just turns the Stanley
Yeah, I want to see that. I thought it was a horror movie, no?
No.
Just serious about the Vatican and the Pope.
It is really goofy.
Really?
Like it is so old, like it's a very tense thriller.
And it's certainly like got thriller and drama like parts to it.
But especially like halfway through, it just gets thriller and drama parts to it, but especially halfway through,
it just gets goofy and silly,
and the screening I was at was big laughs all the time.
And Ray Fiennes plays the Pope's exorcist.
Oh yeah, okay.
Feels like there's another movie like that.
But anyways, yeah, oh, I should see some of these movies.
Get out there. Come on. Yeah, but these movies. Get out there.
Yeah, but you know.
Get out there and then get in there, the theater.
I was telling Dave the other day,
I couldn't sleep the other night,
and so I watched all of The Spy Who Shagged Me,
the Austin Powers. I'm like,
I could have watched any movie during that time,
but I picked one that was like the lesser of the two Austin Powers films.
But the better of the three.
Better of the three, that's right.
So I have no excuse, you know?
There's all sorts of movies I could be watching,
should be watching.
Is that the way movies work with sequels
where they do like the first one's the best,
the second is the second best, third is the worst?
Yeah, I think it's the opposite for Godfather
where I think a lot of people think Oh, yeah second is the best first
This is the original Star Wars
Yeah
trilogy, but like I guess I'm I guess I mean movies where a sequel wasn't necessary. Yeah
Yeah, like do the diehards get worse as they go?
I mean, I think the third is better than the second
Of diehard. Yeah diehard the long ways with Samuel L. Jackson is great. Yeah, that's the third. But that was not written as a Die Hard
movie. It was called Simon Says was the name of the film. And they sold it and
they were like, let's just put it, let's just make this a Die Hard movie. We'll
replace the character of John McClane, have him say some real classic funny
dialogue. Him and Samuel Jackson
Show me a better pair. You know, they were they I can't yeah try so I won't
I just show a picture back of just you and Dave. Oh my god. We're a better pair
That's nice
What's going on with you? Uh, well this past weekend, my mom in her retirement has become an actor.
Oh my god, again?
She didn't get the acting bug out?
No, it's a...
Did you try antibiotics?
Yeah, but the doctors say there's just no chasing it out.
It's entrenched.
Wow.
Like a tick. They can't get a...
Oh my god, she's got Lyme disease the stage
But she lime light disease
You're right everybody
She was in like this this is the biggest production she's it so I went to Calgary to go see it now the first time Is this her second one that you've seen? Yes
The first one was a play I had never heard of. And this one is called Noises Off.
Oh!
Which you've heard of, yeah?
Yeah, it's about a wacky party?
Yeah, a wacky play.
Oh, okay, okay.
Play within a play, classic English farce.
We love a farce, don't we?
Why don't we, people?
We all love a farce, don't we?
You know who especially loves a farce is retired people.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah, absolutely.
Let's sit them down, give them some worthers and put on faulty towers and
got them entertained for hours.
You know what, I was just trying to remember what the word farce is.
When I, the last time I saw it is the French equivalent of an English word.
It's turkey stuffing.
Like stovetop stuffing is farce.
Farse.
So this, the play basically is you see the kind of dress rehearsal of the first night
and like everything's going wrong and the director's yelling at them and then the second after the first break second act the whole stage set is flipped so now
you're seeing everything backstage while the play is going on like I just
tomorrow you see it again exactly and this time fun the first scene or first
act all setting things up right and then had some jokes in it, but man, that second act,
whoo, does it just go crazy.
And then there's a third act, which is there last night,
when things, they've all given up caring about the show,
and so it just goes off the rails.
Was Tess Degenstein in it when she was on?
Oh, maybe.
I think she had just been in it,
because I remember making a joke
about how they should change the mute button she was on? Oh, maybe she had just been in it because that's I remember making a joke
About how they should change the mute button on the remote control to just say noises off
Good joke
But yeah, it was a lot of fun and
Who did your mom play? She played the the maid?
So she's the maid in the play, they're all playing a character up front. Now, is everyone in the play retired or are there
young people too? No, they're young people, but it's like a community theater, so nobody's
like making any money or anything. But they had this set. They're not sending any ringers
in there to blow... Oh, yeah, no, the leaf driver was in it. Okay. Yeah. He played a
very small role, but that's what people were there for most. They didn't have any like local Calgary celebrities
making a...
Chris Gordon.
I don't know, Darryl Janss and Buckshot are both dead.
Darryl Janss, rest in peace.
Yeah.
That means nothing to you, but it's two Calgary's.
No, I know Chris Gordon.
Yeah.
They're the big three.
I know him too, but he means nothing to me.
Harsh, Dave, harsh.
But I saw this play and so the way that they do.
Bret, did it hit man hard?
Didn't he was there?
He was there. He was wearing,
I gave me the pair of glasses, which was really nice.
Yeah. I wore them the rest of play,
couldn't see a fucking thing.
But they have to flip the whole set.
And so they left the curtain up between acts
so you could see them flipping the set.
And I was horrified because this was the actors and crew
were all doing, the actors were helping to do this.
And I was like, mommy, no.
Yeah, oh no, my mom's not.
She's allowed to just sit on the side, which is great.
But I'm just like, somebody's gonna,
it's not gonna be like a massive accident,
but somebody's gonna get a door slammed on their hand
or take something to the eye or something like that.
Hockey puck to the leg.
Yeah, that's the other thing.
You're allowed to do some shots
through the windows of the set.
But yeah, that's why I can't enjoy like a Cirque du Soleil.
I'm too worried, too worried about the performers.
Right.
So it's too worried that somebody's gonna get
their finger caught in something like you.
You can relate.
Yeah.
Wait, did you say what it was from?
No, I didn't.
Yeah.
I was just picturing accident.
Ha ha ha.
It's like Michael Douglas but with... Simon broke my finger.
Damn, Catherine Jada Jones.
Yeah, what did you do?
It's not even a fun story. I was out for a run and I tripped and I fell.
That's right.
Didn't you injure yourself running once? Yeah, and the difference in the story is,
when you fell, what happened?
I was by myself.
I just fell and I landed.
And then I live in Kitsilano,
so I was out for a run into like the Shaughnessy neighborhood.
Cause I was like, this is quiet.
No one's there.
This is lovely.
Which is like nice until you like need medical attention.
Yeah.
And so I'm just like
Sitting there waiting. I immediately called my wife like come get me please
Did you hurt your legs as well? Was she like you can't fucking walk?
Like I had to do more because of the fractured finger but like the most
the skin knees
bad Not a formal but eventually somebody did walk by mm-hmm and it was this random dude like
Gareth his name was Gareth. I found out he was very nice to me and he's like I'm gonna stay with you until like
life picks you up
And he told me that, so he was a lifeguard. But he was, he used to
be, being a lifeguard meant that you have to be certified by the St. John's ambulance
people. And technically his certification had, he was like, it expired, but if it was still
active, legally I would have to hang out with you until someone comes to help.
That's why Graham does this podcast. He legally has to hang out with me.
Until you heal from your hockey injury.
But now what was your injury?
Same. I fell, hurt my hand. I was running same way.
And then I was on the ground, kind of trying to roll over
and a man saw me and walked away.
Just kept on going, like he didn't see me at all.
I sometimes run through Shaughnessy as well.
And I do feel like it's, for people not for Vancouver,
it is the richest part of town.
Oh yes.
I mean, you're from West Vancouver,
so you probably look down on it.
But it's like old super old mansions
It's just nice to be there amongst the people. Yeah
People that work for a living, you know
but the
Like as nice as the houses are the streets are super wide
No one takes care of their sidewalk the sidewalks are oh, yeah
It's super uneven In the winter and fall,
no one cleans up their snow or leaves.
Because they just get in the car and drive away.
There's no-
And there's no foot traffic anyway, no one complains.
Yeah.
But yeah, I had a guy just walk away.
I was like, well, I guess, okay,
I'll just hobble my way home, which is what I did.
And then I did get a cast, I made my own wrap.
Because then I went to get an X-ray.
It was a chicken Caesar wrap.
I couldn't get my hands off it.
But I went and I got an X-ray.
No, a chicken Caesar wrap, it's got the chicken in it.
Yeah.
And some Caesar salad.
Yes, yes.
I was just looking at that.
The Caesar salad with the chicken.
Yeah. Now listeners will remember that from the Miles Anderson
episode?
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, Miles, yeah, yeah.
But yeah, I went, I remember I went to the doctor,
got an x-ray, and they said, it's fine,
it doesn't appear to be anything broken.
I was like, yeah, but I know there's something broken.
And then I went back, you you know like three weeks later and got
another x-ray and the whoever the attending physician was like huh there's a there's a little
crack in your hand that seems to have healed I was like yeah why didn't you what do you think
that's from where you like put it together when my daughter broke her leg when she was one and a
half they x-rayed her and they're like well put her in a cast but it doesn't look broken but come
back in a couple weeks,
because that's how they knew it was broken,
because they can see it healing better
than they can see the original fracture.
I, so when I broke this, at first I just went to this,
like the urgent care center, and they x-rayed it
and they looked, and the doctor there was like,
oh yeah, it's a fracture, but like, it's fine.
I'm really worried about those skinned knees of yours.
Yeah, ouch, ouch. Your I'm really worried about my knees are yours. Yeah, yoch
Oh, I know your boy got a tetanus shot for that. Whoa
smart, yeah
But the the doctor there said like hey, yeah, you're fractured, but
Everything's all your fractured
Yeah, you've been fractured. Yeah, which I think is an M. Night Shyamalan movie
And I'm dr. Jim fracture. You just got fractured. Yeah, which I think is an M. Night Shyamalan movie. And I'm Dr. Jim
Fracture. You just got fractured. But they said, hey, it's fractured.
Your finger is fractured, but everything else is fine. You are a whole soul.
But head back to St. Paul's Hospital in a week and a half and they'll check you
out. And then they re-X-rayed me there and then those doctors just shit-talked the other
doctor. Nice. The whole time they're like yeah no it's fully displaced we have to
fix this and then they're talking to each other like we're gonna have to have
a talking to with that other doctor. Yeah. Good luck. Yeah. He was run off his feet.
Well that's why I ended up just doing the like bandage thing cuz they couldn't like I didn't get a splint
I didn't get anything fun. I just got bandages. They didn't you know, I didn't get something molded
I didn't get to wear a boot, you know, like any of the fun breaking
Yeah, get a cast or something like that. I mean casts are probably not very fun. Sure. Have you ever had a cast?
No, me neither you the closest is this little guy shit

You don't need to take out your liquids or electronics anymore.
Apparently only at the C terminal, which is where all the Air Canada flights go from.
They've got the new machines.
They look like CAT scans or MRI machines.
They're huge, huge white cylinders.
Oh, so this is a technology-based change,
not a we're chilling out.
Yeah, right.
Yeah, or we can admit that this is all bullshit.
Yeah, yeah, this is all theater.
Not the good kind of theater that your mom's in, but.

Overheard!
Overheard is a segment of the show where, boy oh boy, is it great to hear things or
see things or even dream things we like you to share. And we always like to start with
the guest. Colin, do you have an overheard?
Yeah. Mine comes from the category, which is one of my personal favorite categories
of overheard, which is teens on the bus.
Yeah. They go round and round, don't they folks?
Oh, the teens on the bus. And yeah, there was a group of teens,
these young gals talking to each other,
and then they're telling a story.
They're just shit talking to their friend.
And-
Or their friend who's there?
A friend that wasn't there.
So it was, I guess it was bullying, you could say.
Well, if he's not there, you can bully your uncle then.
You can bully your uncle then.
But they're talking about this friend of theirs,
and then one of them says to the other,
oh my God, she calls literally every teacher
by their first name.
Shit.
That's a power play.
In high school to do that?
Hey, Dan.
I wouldn't know what to say.
Call me Mr. McCrimmon.
Pfft.
Pfft.
Pfft.
Pfft.
Pfft.
Did you have a Mr. McCrimmon?
Yes, yes, he was a chemistry teacher.
Yeah.
I know, I guess I knew all my teacher's first names.
I didn't, I don't know that I know them now.
I guess you could look in.
Why would you know them now?
Because I have a, your book, I know that. Please learn them since Why would you know them now? No, because I have a yearbook.
Please learn them since.
Yeah, I don't know.
Geez, do I know anybody's?
No.
I always call them by their last name.
Yeah, I always called them by their last name, but you knew their first name.
Yeah, I think I knew almost all of their first names.
You know, they would send home whatever, like a field trip slip, and it would say their name on it.
Oh, I would just be faking that signature.
I wouldn't pay attention to who was on it.
Ah, you're not a paperwork guy.
No, no, I just feel that.
That's why you just not cut out to be a modern cop.
No, I'm not a modern cop, and also, you know,
I signed one of those horrible in-sync
or Backstreet Boys or TLC.
You got caught by Lou Pearlman.
Yeah. Oh boy. Why did I go in for his blimp company?
Is that part of him?
Yeah. That's how he made his money.
He didn't make any money off the Backstreet Boys?
No, that's how he's able to produce.
I never spend any of my Backstreet Boys money.
This is all off the blip. His story is actually very funny
if you ever hear the full story of Luke Perlman.
Maybe I should.
He's saying, my problem with so many of these
like modern day documentaries the last few years
is they're about things I already knew about.
Yeah.
Like I know, I witnessed Woodstock 99. I was around
for the Menendez brothers. Yes. Yeah. I watched Michael Jordan play basketball.
I liked when they were doing documentaries about things that from before I was born. Yeah.
This is yeah, anyways.
I like the one where it was just a guy made friends
with an octopus.
That's, I was like, I didn't know anything about this.
Oh, I did, because that was from my lifetime.
Right.
Oh, it wasn't anybody you knew, was it?
It was my octopus teacher.
He knows the octopus.
It was my, he calls him my octopus teacher.
I know the octopus's first name.
What is it Gerald?
Don't you call me by my first name
Dave do you have an oh
Mine was I actually overheard this on the radio. Okay. So we hear things. Yeah, honestly, that's what it's for
Yeah, you're gonna pick any medium and then you're something through. Well, the medium is the message, my good man.
I overheard that from my teacher, Marshall.
Nice, nice.
The original Eminem.
So I was listening to the radio
and they were talking about, no, I was listening to Z95.
Z95.3, Z95.
And it's a pop music station.
And we were listening on the way to school
and they had just given away,
this woman was on the phone
and she had just won tickets to Sabrina Carpenter Live.
Ooh, that'd be a good show.
Yeah, well, you know, she's working light.
Absolute.
And the woman is like, oh my God,
they're asking her who you're gonna go with.
Oh, I mean, I'm gonna go with my son.
I'm usually, we drive to school together.
I just dropped him off early today.
He'll be so excited.
And they were like, should we call him?
And so they called the school
where he had just been dropped off.
And it was like eight.
This is pretty good radio.
Yeah, it was great radio. I was listening, I was like, this, I want it.
I'm so-
Is this all happening in real time?
It was like 8.35 in the morning.
Okay.
And she was like, I just dropped him off.
And so she called, the hosts called the school.
The woman, the mother is talking to the secretary.
The secretary says, whatever, hello, whatever.
So-and-so school. And she says, whatever, hello, whatever, so and so school.
And she says, hi, I just dropped off my son.
Can you go get him and put him on the phone?
And the secretary's like,
well, you're not supposed to drop anyone off
before 8.45, we don't have supervision outside.
But yes, I'll go get him.
And so they put everyone on hold.
And then you hear the son pick up the phone, hello?
And the mother says, hey, we're on the radio.
The hosts are gonna tell you something.
And the hosts say, you just, your mom just won tickets
to see Sabrina Carpenter.
And the boy goes, he's probably like 11 or 12.
And he goes, am's probably like 11 or 12 and he goes,
am I really on the radio?
And they go, yeah.
Wait, everyone can hear me right now?
And they say, yeah.
He goes, follow me on TikTok.
These kids, they know an opportunity when they see it.
Oh man, that's good.
Yeah, that's like dream radio
to have some kind of fun little twist with a phone call.
Cause yeah, those giveaway things
can kind of be a little dry, you know?
But also 11 year old boy going to see Sabrina Carpenter,
this is going to be a real awakening for him.
Yeah, and also I think we should all stay tuned to his TikTok
because you're gonna see some footage from the concert.
You're definitely gonna see it.
Oh, I saw a couple of teenagers yesterday doing a TikTok dance
right in front of the Starbucks.
I saw someone on the street the other day on my parents' street.
Like, her dad was, had parked the car,
and she was out on the street doing the like, anything
with you make a heart with your hands.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Classic.
And her phone was out, like her phone was sitting on the car filming her. It was great.
Kids don't ever give up on your TikTok dances. Now my over scene is, has a kind of a visual
component to it.
Oh my god. I spend a good
chunk of any day on the Facebook marketplace. I want to see what there's a
good chunk.
Cranowind cross-eyed. But some more or less time in a week than I spend working.
Ten hours. ten hours.
I mean, if you broke it up, I would say probably,
let's say four hours a week,
if you broke it up into a little segment.
Also, past guest, Alicia Tobin will send me ones
for a scary ventriloquist doll,
or some kind of weird thing like that.
So this was a business for sale.
Okay.
Business for sale, exclusive product, website, and rights for sale. Okay. Business for sale, exclusive product, website,
and rights for sale.
It is, it is.
Comes with a TikTok account.
$7,000.
Okay.
For this business.
It's a novelty.
It's a novelty product.
And.
Fake vomit?
No, but you're right in the right.
Okay. We're in the bathroom, so you're right in the right. Okay.
We're in the bathroom, so it's something to do with...
Oh, I don't vomit in the bathroom.
I vomit in the boardroom.
Any guesses as to what, if we're talking...
Is it a fake product?
Like a fake rubber duck?
It's like something to create a fake thing. So it's not rubber ducks. And is it a fake bodily thing? Is it a fake product? Like a fake rubber ducks? It's like something to create a fake thing.
So it's not rubber ducks.
And is it a fake bodily?
Is it fake blue?
If no.
Fake pee?
Yes, fake pee.
Fake pee?
It's called the pee puck, you see.
Okay.
So it's kind of like 2000 flushes blue, maybe?
I don't know.
You put it in the tank.
Yeah.
It makes it look like somebody's just peed in the.
But somebody did just pee in the tank. Yeah, it makes it look like somebody's just peed in the but somebody did just pee in the back
Yeah, I mean it's not a good business I don't think so it's a yellow
Food coloring the whole big prank is someone flushes the toilet and then it still looks yellow. Yeah
Wow, I think you got an idea for a new kind of ice to make
Looks yellow. Wow. I think you got an idea for a new kind of ice to make
This makes toilet water yellow for days
For days ditto. There you go. There's people Wow. Yeah, and you can have the exclusive rights. Yeah, seven thousand bucks What's the it says the website comes with it? What's the website?
people
Found penis on fart
Yellow yellow for.biz.
Yellowforddays.biz.
I told you I got hit by a puck the other day.
Yes.
So you're naturally afraid of them now.
And his bruise has been yellow for days.
Yeah.
You thought hockey puck.
So seven grand, what do you think?
Should we get in there?
Comes with a website.
You gotta think he's got a list of vendors know where to go but up
And this is funny. It's a funny thing as actual packaging like you're not just buying a concept, you know
Oh, and you'll never guess
number one toilet prank says they're right in the corner
Everyone's right sharks. I have a idea for you. I'm looking for $7,000 for 100% of my company.
And like they don't, they still look at it offer.
I wouldn't.
How much would you think would you pay for it?
I don't know a lot about business, but that's a bad product.
It is a bad product.
And it's you
know what I it's like not scary enough I wanted to be like blood coming up yeah
yeah I mean yeah I mean maybe it's that maybe it doesn't have to be yellow maybe
could be red but then that would be scary but that could be the number one
toilet prank it could be the next generation. I'm just like, is it also just, is it neutral smell?
That's a great question.
This guy's got all these ice cube ideas.
Oh, and then he's got, there's a cartoon character like shouting something and it's yelling,
who didn't flush again?
So this package really does.
But that's not the biggest deal.
Like that's not so pranky
They're like, oh no, someone didn't flush. Oh poo? No pee. Nah pee. It's fine. I'll just flush it Whoa, what? There's still pee in there?
Okay, well your toilet's broken
Well, have you tried plunging it? Uh, okay. Not really the issue, but I will try that though
Uh, okay. Not really the issue, but.
I will try that though.
But yeah, seven grand you think is probably too steep?
If I could talk them down to five.
Or four. I'm not a good salesman,
so I'm not gonna be able to sell these things.
Not door to door.
Well, I think it's a good sign
anytime any business is being sold on Facebook Marketplace.
Yeah, that's true.
For four figures.
That's usually.
High four figures. High four figures, yeah.
It's funny that he calls it a business as opposed to a product.
Well, I mean, he does have the website, which I gotta think is peepuck.com.
Um, or the peepuck.com.
Uh, no, just peepuck.
It's clean.
That's good.
Now we also have overheard sent into us from people all over the map.
If you want to send one into us, send it to the sby at maximumfun.org like these people
have.
This first one is Rachel in Atlanta, Georgia.
Now when I do my line, I'm really gonna have to juice it up.
Yeah, but you can though, I have faith.
I was watching my daughter's gymnastic practice
and two women a few rows in front of me
were talking much, much louder than necessary
while the conversation was full of gems.
My favorite was when they were talking about
whether their respective daughters
were starting to become interested in romance. One one said they're getting to the age where they
Have celebrity crushes, so I think that's why they love that movie
But I mean who's not attracted to Captain Jack Sparrow
You know the guy that is very crushable
Yeah
Shoot higher, you know I think well yeah, Orlando Bloom is the real heartthrob in that one You know the guy that is very crushable Yeah
Shoot higher, you know, I think well, yeah, Orlando Bloom is the real heartthrob in that one. Yeah, but or Jeffrey Rush
See the tentacle. Yeah
What is uh, how old do they say these kids are?
No mention no mention. No, but you know the age're, where they're starting to become interested in romance.
Because people are, I mean, in my teen years,
people loved Johnny Depp, but then he started becoming
a living cigarette.
Yeah, just a collection of sentient scarves and.
I was gonna say, a character actor.
Yeah, and he's a character in real life, from... I was going to say, a character actor.
Yeah, and he's a character in real life from all I learned from the trial he was a part of.
Sure.
I've only heard good things.
Yeah, no, he drinks a lot of wine.
All the girls at my school were like, oh, I got a big crush on Johnny Depp as Tonto.
Oh, I was always kind of an Edward Scissorhands man. I was Leather Daddy and he's got it in spades.
He was very cute in that.
He was very cute.
He was very cute for a long time and then started doing Johnny Depp only features, you
know.
But we wish him the best.
This next one's from Tom from Portland, Oregon.
Sitting at a Panera waiting for food, two girls get up from a booth to clear their table.
Girl, I just feel so fulfilled and I think I got cream cheese on my pants.
It's okay.
Cream your jeans.
That's why I said that.
I don't know why I brought that to you.
That's why I picked that over.
Have you been to a Panera?
No, is it a coffee shop?
Yeah, soups and sandwiches.
Oh yeah, no, I've never been.
You?
Yeah, once.
Good?
Fine.
Yeah, I think once as well for me in Toronto.
I was at one in Seattle.
It was just like, hey, do you want a real
seven out of 10 panini?
And what would, if you had to choose between Panera or Pret, what would you pick?
I haven't had any of the Pret. I mean, I guess here I only know Pret from it invading A&W.
I haven't been to the Prets in the UK that have a good reputation.
I guess the equivalent of Panera would be like Tim Hortons maybe as a big chain
It feels I mean, I don't know if these are if there's any of them left
But it feels somewhere between Tim Hortons and like you remember bread garden
Yeah, I'd garden. Yeah
There somewhere it's definitely bread garden coated. Yeah, but there just aren't very many of them anymore
There's one in Olympic Village for sure. is there no that's Tara bread same thing
though yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah this last one comes from oh sorry that last
one was from Mike from Maryland this one's from Tom from Portland okay I was
at a diner and there was a guy sitting near me waiting for a to-go order.
After a few minutes an employee walked up to him and handed him a wrapped burrito.
The man said thank you and sat for a moment before standing up to leave.
Before walking out the door he turned to the employee at the counter and confusedly held
out his burrito and asked, is this the brisket plate?
And the employee said no, you asked for a burrito.
The man looked at the menu for a minute,
or looked at the menu for a minute,
before saying, you don't even have a brisket plate.
Why was I asking you?
It's not even on the side.
I don't know what brisket comes on.
What does it come with brisket?
Well, brisket is a cut of meat.
Yeah. And it's usually cut of meat. Yeah.
And it's usually like slow smoked.
Yeah.
It'll be at a barbecue restaurant and they'll slice it up.
They'll give it to you.
It could be on a plate or in a sandwich.
Yeah, you got a brisket sandwich.
If it's on a plate, maybe it comes with some coleslaw.
Yeah, or maybe it's with a selection of meats.
Yeah.
Have either of you ever been to like a place that has like a real smoker out back?
No. I don't. Me neither. Years ago. I mean the only smokers out back in most of these restaurants,
the chefs. Yeah, yeah. Have you seen the bear? I did, I had a work trip where we went to Dallas
a few years ago. Right. And so I went to like a Texas barbecue place
where they, like you walk like through the place
where they're smoking it and it is, it's,
it lives up to it, it's so good.
But like, you just, you're pointing at things that you want
and they serve it all for you.
And I think the one that surprised me the most
was just that they had all this corn in the cob and they just kept it in a melted pot of butter
They just pulled it right out of that for you. You're not gonna believe it pretty good. Yeah
Oh man, I saw an employee training video for some restaurant from the 80s and the roast beef guy that cuts roast beef at the
Have you seen that is it the one about it making makes
yeah see the game last night they didn't give you all these examples of what
small talk you might want to have okay last night
oh fuck the weather let me tell you go Go away, come back. Have you seen The Wrong Guy with Dave Foley?
Have you ever seen it?
No, I haven't heard of it.
Oh, it's like legendary.
The first half hour, I think, is my favorite movie.
Yeah, it's so funny.
There's a, at the very beginning,
he thinks he's getting a promotion that day
and everyone he's talking to in the office,
big day today, oh, big day talking to in the office big day today. Oh big day
How you doing today big day?
And then he goes up to two guys. Did you guys see the game last night? There was no game last night. Huh big day though
My favorite gag we're doing
He's in the hospital and they ask him his name and he goes, he does that thing where he looks
around the room where he's like,
oh, my name is Ivy, bed ban.
She's like, do you want to try that again?
He goes, yeah, yeah.
My name, he looks at her name on her uniform
and goes, nurse Nancy.
Okay, my next favorite gag from it is when he goes
into his boss's office and his boss has been murdered.
And he's freaking out and he pulls the knife out of the guy's back and he's like...
He starts screaming because he's got a knife on his back.
He's just trying to put the knife back into him. Gently.
God, that movie's good.
Underrated and unheralded.
Yeah.
Should be on everybody's mantle.

One says new driver.
Good luck everyone.
Internal screaming.
Nice.
The other one says new driver honking won't help and then new driver expects stupid stuff.
Anyway, off I go. I really stuck the landing there.
We have certain things people say at the end of calls.
Off I go.
No freaking way.
No freaking way.
I think we need to add blah blah blah, blah, blah, blah to the cannon.
Oh, good.
That was good.
The bumper stickers were fine.
The bumper stickers were fine,
but you know why I chose that call.
Three bumper stickers on the one theme.
Yeah, I'm bad at driving.
That's new and bad.
I'm new and bad.
Yeah.
Look out.
Yeah, I mean, like when you put a bumper sticker on a car
Is it impossible to take off without ruining the paint job? Like are you stuck with that bumper sticker? You must be able to I
I wonder I've my whole life. My parents told me no you never put a bumper sticker on a car because it'll
Run the paint over on the paint job. It'll never come off
But yeah, but your parents hadn't seen these bumper stickers
I've also seen they had no idea how new and bad you were gonna be at driving
I've seen now magnets. They're both
Their magnets and then support our troops. Yeah, you know people can just take them steal from you
Now I support the truth I commit to your statement, no magnets. I've been thinking about my idea for a bumper sticker,
about trying to get it made.
Okay.
Mine is, you know when you're, you drive,
when you're at a left turn lane
and there's like the little sensor on the ground.
People pull up past the sensor.
Or they don't realize that,
the sensor is for up to three cars, but if there's only
two cars, you can both be on a sensor.
My bumper stick would say, if you can read this, back up onto the left turn sensor.
Nice.
That's pretty good.
I don't have an idea for a bumper stick.
Oh no, one that has all the religious symbols on it says coexist.
Is that good?
Is that a good one? My idea is Calvin peeing on that one. Oh, pe and it says coexist. Is that good? Is that a good one?
My idea is Calvin peeing on that one.
Oh, peeing on the coexist, I like that.
Also, I would also accept Punisher with American flag
instead of white Punisher symbol.
Okay.
Hello gents, it's Julianne calling from Pennsylvania.
We should have the porch thing, take the treat, and the six-year-old girl comes up. And she's so excited, and she lanks me, and I go, my pleasure, babe.
And she leaps off the porch chanting, she called me a pleasure, babe.
I'm a pleasure, babe.
All right, then off I go. Pleasure, babe. Talk about 80s. My pleasure pleasure babe. I'm the pleasure babe. All right, then off I go.
Pleasure babe.
I mean, talk about 80s.
Pleasure babe.
80s movie.
The fun romp.
Who starred in Pleasure Babe?
It was Anthony Michael Hall.
Oh, cool.
Who did he play?
He played the titular.
Pleasure babe?
Pleasure babe, wow.
It was ahead of its time.
Yeah. Anthony Michael Hall. was ahead of its time. Yeah.
Yeah.
Anthony Michael Hall, we wish you best.
Or way behind its time.
Yeah, they did that as well in the 80s.
Yeah.
Yeah.
There's some things that, yeah,
upon watching them as an adult, I'm like, ooh.
I didn't track that as much when I was a kid,
but oh well, every joke was a gay joke.
Yeah. And you know what? as much when I was a kid. Oh, well, every joke was a gay joke. Yeah, yeah.
And you know what? You don't have to show those ones to your daughters.
I'm afraid I do.
You don't have to, is it 16 candles?
There's a character in it that's racial stereotype.
Yeah. Oh yeah.
Racial stereotype, yeah.
Well, in Friends, they had a character
who was a racial stereotype. And someday we're gonna make sure that doesn't happen anymore. Hi, in Friends, they had a character who was a Rachel stereotype.
And someday we're going to make sure that doesn't happen anymore.
Hi, Dave Graham and guests.
I was doing some election canvassing in Wisconsin this past week and knocked on a door.
Young man comes out.
Young man.
And I asked him if he would mind telling me who he's planning on voting for.
And he says, yeah, I'm voting
for the lady. And a voice comes out of the ring doorbell, a smart doorbell there that
says, her name is Kamala Harris. And he says, sorry mama, sorry mama, yes,
I'm voting for Kamala Harris.
Go back to work, Mom.
I could barely make it three steps away from the door.
So she's at work getting this on her phone.
All right, off I go, bye.
My dunderheaded son.
Yeah, yeah.
First of all, if you have one of those doorbells
where you can see who's ringing it, don't answer.
Yeah.
Yeah, exactly.
You put a no, do they obey the no soliciting signs?
That I put up?
Yeah.
Sometimes I do see on our camera,
sometimes someone will come up the stairs,
see them and turn right around on their door.
Yeah.
The important part is anytime a canvasser comes to your door as they're leaving you gotta say my pleasure babe my
pleasure babe i'm glad pleasure i'm collecting for the pleasure babe society
would you or like they do a charlotte drug mart would you like to give some
money to women or kids i feel like i do that every
dumb day every day is women you know what they have a tightysha or Drug Mart quite a bit on the weekends is Jehovah's
Witnesses standing there.
Yeah, high traffic area.
And it's always two Jehovah's Witnesses.
They never say anything to you.
Like they're not like...
They're profiling.
Magazine, magazine, magazine, magazine.
You want a magazine, magazine, magazine.
But they're standing there and I wonder wonder it's always in a group of two
I wonder do you get to get to pick who you stand with or you're like, I'm with
Cheryl again, I think it's I think you're much like a college roommate
You're assigned somebody that you're you have to go on your
It's called adventure
Yeah
On your quest. Yeah, you go on a year-long quest and
so you're just, you're stuck with whoever's your buddy. Is it, is it Mormons? Is it the
Rumspriga? No, that's the Amish. And that's a year of non-Amishness. Mormons do a mission,
but I don't know what Jehovah's Witnesses do other than proselytize. There was a reality.
You know what they don't do?
Friggin' Halloween.
Who?
Joe Vs. Witnesses.
Yeah, or Amish.
They probably don't do.
They probably call it Sam Haynes Day
or some old shit like that.
There's any Amish listening.
Yeah, because you're on your rum trigger
and you're allowed to listen to whatever you want.
Tune into your local radio station.
There might be a fun little giveaway.
There's someone on my Instagram,
an algorithm who's like a home,
just renovating her house and she raves about,
we hired the Amish to build this barn and it rules.
They did it in a day, get the Amish.
They make amazing furniture.
They make fantastic quilts.
There's the Amish equivalent in Canada, the Hutterites.
They make some great furniture quilts as well.
You would hate them.
You've got a mustache and they've got everything but.
Yeah, you'd be like, oh, they'd be like,
who's the new guy as you walk into town?
Mr. Reverso over there.
I call him Mr. Reverso.
Yeah.
Yeah. We've foretold about this Mr. Reverso.
Do you remember when Anthony Michael Hall played
Mr. Reverso?
Yeah, Mr. Reverso in a kind of a gender swap thing.
Oh man, there were so many of those in the 80s.
Gender swap, dad and kid swap.
Uh-huh.
Yeah, it's, and then there's like somebody pretending
to be a woman to get in somewhere,
somebody pretending to be black.
Black, yeah.
That probably aged not so well.
I don't think I've ever seen that movie.
Soul man?
Soul man, yeah, no.
Someone pretending to be a mannequin.
What was that called?
Pleasure, man.
To reverse a mannequin. Well, It's a reverse of Mannequin.
