Starting point is 00:02:21 Down with Tech, yeah. Okay. Okay. This should be an hour and a half of just starting the show. I'm not against it. This show has started three times and I thought, I'm fucked. I have no idea what's going on here. Maybe I am Nathan Fielder. Maybe I'm pranking this whole fucking thing. Okay, so here we go.
Starting point is 00:02:40 Can we swear here on the Most Christian Podcast? Nathan Fielder, famous prankster. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Nathan Fielder, famous prankster. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, and he has a special out now and an album. That's a winning album, a Juno winning album. It's Nathan McIntosh. There we go, that was clean. Yeah, sure.
Starting point is 00:03:00 And then, okay, one more. And our guest here has a Juno Losing album out called Down with Tech. It's Nathan McIntosh. And I just wanna, can I do one more? Yeah. Our guest today, Juno Losing, very sad and also died on the way back home after this podcast.
Starting point is 00:03:19 Oh no! So he won right, like posthumously as close as you can. No, no, he lost he still lost Oh, no, but then on the way back assassinated Wow Assassinated what happened to me Luigi Mangione? Wall-e-shit, he's taking a wild turn. Yep, healthcare CEOs and just a guy. Yeah, just a guy I think I do love when someone's an assassin They give them they make sure they have all three of their names.
Starting point is 00:03:46 Lee Harvey Oswald, Mark David Chapman, but Luigi Mangione, they were like, what are we gonna? Yeah, yeah, how many are we gonna improve on this? Yeah, Luigi Giuseppe Mangione? Yeah, what is his middle name, do we know him? No, I mean, I don't know, but it's possible knowledge that's out there. Oh, it's gotta be out there.
Starting point is 00:04:02 Was there? I'd assume it's Luigi DMs filled to the brim, man gioni. Mm-hmm. Did you? Luigi covered in tits. Covered in tits? Man gioni.
Starting point is 00:04:13 Once I kill a CEO, you're gonna be covered in tits. He's absolutely full tilt covered in, they had to, the prison or something that he's in had to be like, stop sending things. Yeah. Oh, really? Oh, yeah. He's getting covered in tits. Yeah to be like, stop sending things. Yeah. Oh really? Oh yeah. He's getting covered in tits.
Starting point is 00:04:26 Yeah, people are sending their tits for him in the mail on this Christian podcast. Cause he doesn't have a, he can't just, you can't send him photos. He doesn't have Instagram in jail or does he? I don't know. How do you get Instagram in jail? The latest I heard was he wanted a laptop.
Starting point is 00:04:41 Give him a laptop. Yeah, so do I. A laptop, yeah, let him. He wants to, you know, make mashups. Yeah, yeah, yeah. There's a- Reaction videos. There's a good-
Starting point is 00:04:53 He wants a phone so he can make TikToks where he's pointing it at other TikToks. At his CEOs. Yeah. Just silently pointing at the words above his head. Luigi Niccolas Mangione. Oh, that takes it down. The dang, dang, dang.
Starting point is 00:05:07 Yeah, yeah, that's what I did. That is exactly what I did. That takes it down. Luigi Mangione is a much better name than Luigi Nicholas. But I think they always publicize the three names because if you're Lee Oswald, you don't want to be applying for a job. Wait, didn't you kill JFK? Oh, no, that's a new guy. No, it was Lee Oswald, you don't wanna be like, you know, applying for a job. Wait, didn't you kill JFK?
Starting point is 00:05:25 Oh no, that's a new guy. No, it's Harvey Oswald. I'm Lee Honda, our Oswald. Honda! There's a great Twitter account or Blue Sky account that's just hot mugshots, people who are like incredibly handsome and pretty. It's great, it's great.
Starting point is 00:05:41 I believe there's a subreddit called Mugshoties. Jotties. That is just pretty ladies. It's great. Yeah. I believe there's a subreddit called Mug Shawties. Shawties. That is just pretty ladies. Yeah, because you don't have to be ugly to go to prison. I think that's a bygone era, right? I think it's good. Your Honor, I mean, you fuck him. You're right.
Starting point is 00:06:01 Let him go. We tried to find a jury of their peers, but there's no one who looks as good as this. Yeah. Yeah, you have to find 12 people uglier than you to judge whether or not you get to go. That's for that famous movie, 12 Ugly Men. 12 Ugly Men, the ugliest.
Starting point is 00:06:19 Now you dwell in New York City. Was it a big day when Luigi made the scene? Yes. Block parties and such? Block parties, big fiestas. They did a fish fry. While in New York City, was it a big day when Luigi made the scene? Yes. Block parties and such? Block parties, big fiestas, they did a fish fry right there. Oh nice, a fish fry. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:31 Fish fry right there in the corner. It is crazy that it was, what was that, like 46th and sixth or fifth or something? I don't know, I got lost in New York. What's that? I got lost in New York. Yeah, was it a big, like, were people, people because I didn't ever hear this guy until he was dead So I didn't get to know his life Only gonna get to see it in retrospect
Starting point is 00:06:55 Anyway, this is great Well, I mean it's fine, but like right I we can talk more about this if you want it just feels old Yeah, yeah, fair enough. I mean, I guess we were just like, I said Nathan was assassinated. You said he was Nathan Fielder. Let's call the whole thing off. Nathan, you're here in town.
Starting point is 00:07:16 You've been to Vancouver before, right? Yeah. Yeah. As standup or visiting or? Yeah, to do shows, yeah. Nice. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Do you travel every weekend as a standup comedian? I Do you travel every weekend as a stand-up comedian? I don't travel every weekend as a non-famous stand-up comedian.
Starting point is 00:07:29 If I was a famous stand-up comedian, I probably would travel every weekend. But aren't there like road dogs that are out there? Yeah, that was the, no one used to be famous. You used to just go to a comedy club and. Yeah. That's dead, Dave. That is dead. A guy living out of his car.
Starting point is 00:07:43 That way of comedy was assassinated on its way home from losing a Jun Dave. That is dead. I love you out of a car that that that way of comedy was assassinated On its way home from losing a Juno. Mmm. Yes. So no, I'm not I mean I am in New York a decent amount, but I probably travel at least once a month twice a month Okay. Yeah, I'm here for your fire points Yeah, what's your what's your airline Delta Delta? They to fly, but they have a funny way of showing it. Yeah, I just used a bunch of points for the first time. You guys ever use points? Oh yeah, I'm gonna use mine for the first time
Starting point is 00:08:16 to get a flight for someone else. So yeah, because then it's like free. Who are you flying in? I'm flying in actually a a friend of the podcast Jay Arner is going to get gender a reaffirming surgery Wow have to go to Toronto for that Mm-hmm, so I got points so if she wants points, she's gonna get points. Yeah. Yeah, also Check out the go fund me. Yeah, they go fund me. Yeah, I think go fund me just type in Jay check out the GoFundMe. Yeah, the GoFundMe, yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:42 I think GoFundMe, just type in JR, is that what it would? Yeah, we'll put a link somewhere. Oh, okay, yeah. Anyways. So we support JR. JR's a good, we've, I've donated. Friend of the show, yeah. With a person who made all, recorded all the music for our debut album podcast.
Starting point is 00:08:56 Very talented, very talented indeed. But this is my first time using points for anything. I've never taken a flight on points, I've never bought anything. I wonder if I could get into a lounge with the points. I don't know. I bought, I got a pair of Ray-Ban glasses with credit card points, just cause I was like,
Starting point is 00:09:13 I haven't used these points and it felt good. Yeah. But then they show up and you're like, what am I doing here? Cause the point, you know, credit card points anyway, you can use that for money. You can just trade that in real dollars. Right. So then now you're just like, now I just bought Ray-Bans.
Starting point is 00:09:30 I didn't use, I used money now. Yeah. Mine is only for, my credit is only for Aero Black or whatever. I get, I also have scene club points for the Cinoplex Odeon theaters. Nice. And so, you know, sometimes you'll be, you'll be paying for your broccoli and they're like, hey, you want $10 off? Cause you went to see Mickey 17. There's the past guest, Adam Christie,
Starting point is 00:09:57 was really encouraging me to get an American Express cause the points are through the roof. You have one? No. No. Look, Adam Christie says, What's your credit card number? 281... That's the area code.
Starting point is 00:10:11 44628. In all seriousness, if somebody, I mean, I'm probably most people like this, maybe you're not. If somebody locked me in a room, took my credit card, and were like, give us the number, we'll kill you, that could be a way that I died as well, leaving here, because I wouldn't be able to, took my credit card, and were like, give us the number or we'll kill you, that could be a way that I died as well leaving here because I wouldn't be able to tell anybody my credit card number. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:30 Is that off the top of my head? Yeah, same with my SIN number. I have to look at it. Oh, that I know. Do you? Yeah, and I also know my social security number. Both those I know. Okay.
Starting point is 00:10:38 Yeah. Oh, are they same amount of digits? The exact same number. Oh, really? No. I don't know how these things work. Two different countries. Violently two different countries.
Starting point is 00:10:49 They are, they're not the same amount of numbers. No, they are, they are. They're just placed differently. Yeah, because the number is nine. I think, no, I think that one is one less. Canada's is one less? No, Canada's is one more. Can't possibly be, because everyone in America has a social security number and there's
Starting point is 00:11:07 One full digit more of people they have hundreds of millions. We only nine. Okay. All right. They're just spaced out differently So I'll leave I'll leave Look, I know we we were hard on you about the numbers, but deep down we love you Yeah, I don't want to get, do you guys have a credit card that you pay for? No. Oh. The ones that like at the, you know, $400, you do?
Starting point is 00:11:30 Not $400, but it's like some fee at the end of, you know, every once a year I pay to, so, cause I'm on the, I get more points than the lower down credit card. I have, mine's through the bank, so I get it for free. No. Mine's through the bank. Yeah, they're all, exactly. They're all through the bank. Yeah, it for free. No, mine's through the bank. Yeah, mine's through the bank. Exactly, they're all through the bank. Yeah, that's it.
Starting point is 00:11:49 Well, you have like, do you have a TD visa? Yeah. Okay. But you can get, they have tiers. Yeah, but what bank is your credit card with? TD, but you can get, they have one, they have a few different ones. How much do you pay a year for your card?
Starting point is 00:12:01 I feel like it's in the $200 range. And this is solely for points. This is solely for points. And you know what? For a little bit of self-esteem. Yeah. But you've made it in life. Yeah, I can pay $200.
Starting point is 00:12:15 This guy, hobo. And me too. This guy thinks the bank just gives you a credit card. It's through the bank, it's free. But if you- And also it's free money, because you just spend it everywhere. If you keep a minimum balance, it's free. But if you- And also it's free money, because you just- If you give a minimum balance, it's free.
Starting point is 00:12:27 Yeah. Oh, and if you die. It's gonna cost you everything. Yeah. I have a stupid- My bread's ready. My bread's ready, I gotta send a text. What kind of bread we got?
Starting point is 00:12:40 Sourdough. Oh yeah. With his oven, he can text right to the sourdough. Get out of the oven. Pull yourself out of the oven, bread. Oh, you know what? Luigi Mangione's here. He was like, why isn't it?
Starting point is 00:12:54 Where's the bread? Why isn't it ciabatta bread? I have a, this is a dumb thing, but I have a real aversion to paying for a credit card. Cause I'm in your, of like, it's free. It's free. It's free. Yeah, and that's why I balked at the American Express card.
Starting point is 00:13:10 I was like, I'm not gonna pay. But then he says the points are outrageous. But if I'm paying for the card, just let me give you $200 a year and you give me more points. Yeah. If all I want is the points anyway, there's something about the subscription basis
Starting point is 00:13:23 of a credit card where I'm like, just on, you know, I just don't want to do it. I just can't do it. I feel you, but you know what? Once you make that jump, everything opens up for you. Do you think diner cards not around anymore? Is it diner's club diner's club? Yeah, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:13:39 Is discover around? Discover? Yeah, yeah, yeah. But here's the thing is Abby and I, my wife and I we on this one I get two credit cards so we're getting twice the points because she spends I spend we all spend we all spend it's it's a real ice cream for ice cream situation. Are these visas or these master cards? You don't need to go into what these are. Mine's a visa. Yeah. Mine's also a Visa. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:05 Now, boy, like five topics ago, I had something I wanted to ask me. You're here for the Juno Awards. Yeah. Who is there? Graham was nominated last year. And- Correct, loser. Who won it last year?
Starting point is 00:14:17 Damn it. It was Kyle Brownrig. Yeah, so that's one of the household names you could see if you go to these weekend shows. I was telling Nathan. I'm gonna let you guys know something. I'm really feeling good about myself coming in here.
Starting point is 00:14:32 What is... What is the last year? What's the reason for the Junos? What's the reason to do comedy? Please, I hope these are the questions. The reason to do the reason for the Junos is because Graham got the comedy award reinstated. Yeah, myself and Mark Ford and Ben Miner.
Starting point is 00:14:49 Yeah, it's great. We were the hidden figures of the Junos. Stop comparing. Did you have to fight Anne Marie? How do you get that in there? Yeah, no, it was actually Rita McNeil, God bless her soul. Yeah, we had to have a cage fight.
Starting point is 00:15:05 You killed Rita. Yeah, I killed her. And you know what? I don't regret it. Well, last year, everyone assumed May Martin is gonna win this one. Yes, yeah. Who is everyone assuming is gonna win this year?
Starting point is 00:15:17 Is there somebody that's a... No, well, I haven't heard the assumptions. Okay, I don't know. I just, yeah, cause I, you haven't been getting around, getting together with the other nominees. I have been getting together with the other nominees. I'll tell you guys this, that we did a show for the Junos showcase on Thursday.
Starting point is 00:15:36 A guy from the Vancouver Sun reviewed it. And that review came out today. And everybody got a glowing review except me. Why, what the hell? He was very upset. I could tell from the way you started this story. So he wrote a couple of paragraphs about each person, very nice, and then when he got to me, he goes,
Starting point is 00:15:56 sadly, staying to watch Nathan McIntosh made it impossible for me to go see Wild Rivers. That's the entire review. So what's Wild Rivers? It's a band that then he did a glowing review for. A band he didn't even see. He was like, wow, Wild Rivers, they've sold a lot of albums. They're Canada's heroes. They're rivers.
Starting point is 00:16:19 They're rocks. I mean, it was anyway, so that was uh, so so maybe to answer your question I don't know. I've been around the people but it's you it's Pass last week's guest Courtney Gilmore, Deborah DiGiovanni past guest. Jess Solomon. I've been Decker and Ivan Decker Solid redhead representation this year to you out of five. What if I was not bad meat loaf song? The Two out of five. Two out of five is not bad, meatloaf song. That's right. That's right. Um, the, um, when I- For people listening in the United States, the Junos are Canada's Grammys. Yes, and-
Starting point is 00:16:54 That's what we're talking about. They've been calling them at the manager at the cellar, has been calling them the Crammies, the Crammy Awards. That's pretty good. Changed my bio to like Crammy award-winning, fucking, not, it hasn't even happened yet. Yeah Yeah, so it's usually we get these, you know Canadian artists first you'll in America You'll be hearing about Wild Rivers in a couple years. He loved Wild Rivers. He didn't even see them this guy
Starting point is 00:17:17 He didn't even see the band loves him. He actually didn't go see the band. I ruined his night I I kept him in the building and it ruined it. I'm guessing country music. What do you guess? I would assume Wild Rivers is folk rock. Yeah, folk rock. About- Canadian folk band, yep.
Starting point is 00:17:36 Fuck yeah. Well, they're Wild Rivers. I mean, what the hell else are they gonna do? You know what I mean? They're not ACDC-esque. Oh man, can you imagine? Hey everybody, we're Wild Rivers. That actually would work too, yeah. else are they gonna do you know what I mean they're not ACDC-esque. Oh man can you imagine hey everybody we're Wild Rivers. That actually would work too yeah. They just singing about balls but anyways no I
Starting point is 00:17:52 don't know who the hell I don't know who the hell the goddamn fucking assumption is um I'm happy to go I got a suit I like. Oh yeah yeah new suit for for this brand new suit for the Junos. Hell yeah. Yeah. New suit for this brand new suit for the Juneau. Oh, yeah. I was going to return it. Big fan of that. But I'm going to keep this suit. You like I have why I have bought it. If you guys don't this, I buy things. I've worn stuff on like TV and things with the tags on. Oh, yeah. And then the very next day, I turn that. Yeah. Yeah. Because there's no you have no nostalgia connected to these garments.
Starting point is 00:18:23 No, not maybe a little especially this type of thing of you you but I like the suit and I want to keep the suit But I said to get the hemmed but I definitely have like yeah, I've returned much stuff. Yeah almost anytime. I've been on TV if There's a tag on me. Yeah, it's kind of weird. I wonder if that's what if that's a common No people people have money and they, they pay $200 for credit cards. They keep the clothes that they buy. But me, I rent from expensive places. I've got a jacket for 600 bucks. Wow.
Starting point is 00:18:54 Do a thing, but I'm taking it right. I mean, it doesn't even. Oh, right, so the sky's the limit. I feel bad for the people at the store though, cause they're like, whoa, they really in my head. Yeah, do they get their commission taken away if you bring it back? Yes, I used to work at a future shop
Starting point is 00:19:09 and I would come in sometimes and be in the hole. Oh. Because somebody the day before returned something, I sold them, so I would start my day, negative $120. You're just like, well, this is gonna be a good one. We're starting directly in the in the fucking red here. What was commission like at Future Shop? Commission and Future Shop was what did you sell like TV VCR?
Starting point is 00:19:34 Yeah. And commission was you only really made money on the service plans. That's why they're always like, you just bought the movie drop dead friend You need the $76 service plan yeah, so if it gets you know fingerprints on it We'll just give you a whole other copy of one of the worst movies ever made I hate that movie so much First year you're covered by the factory war But I sold one time a five minute I mean this one like TVs were super expensive too. Like there was plasma TVs in the building for like 15k.
Starting point is 00:20:11 I sold a TV to a guy for $5,000. He refused the service plan. Of course he did. He's got five thousand bucks for a TV. Exactly. He doesn't give a fuck. He's, he did all, anyways, I made fifty dollars on the five thousand okay So that was kind of the service plan was the only thing Wow so I didn't really sell
Starting point is 00:20:30 I didn't even try to sell things if I'm being serious I used to take a giant executive lunches nice because if you didn't make enough money in commissions You would just make minimum wage, and I was like I'm 18. I don't give a fuck I want to go home play Grand Theft Auto anyway So I would cross the street go to pizza delight and just eat lunch for three hours. It's a delight. That sounds good Awesome. Yeah, they have lunch buffet, dude. I would sit over another guy pizza Oh my god, I would sit over there with another guy me and him. We both look at each other. He was in like Accessories he'd be we sell like cords. Yeah, and I mean him I used to call him rec-a-ton because there was a cheap
Starting point is 00:21:04 cord company called receketon. Okay. So I'm like, Reketon, you want to go to an executive lunch? He's like, absolutely. Drop cords, he was like folding back up and we would just cross the street for hours. And those lunch buffet places, they're counting up people who have to go back to work.
Starting point is 00:21:24 Yeah, definitely. Yeah, we would just sit at Pizza Delight, man. Those lunch buffet places, they're counting on people who have to go back to work. Yeah, we would just sit at Pizza Delight, man. It was awesome. It's so much fun. The pizza buffet is so impossible to take advantage of because after two slices you're like, I'm slowing down if you have that third slice. Okay, things are starting to get a little creaky. Craig L. Creaky. I mean, they had salad, you know, Caesar salad and some cakes. Yeah. Oh, sure. Craig L. It was a good time. But we would really just sit there, eat pizza and just drink pop and just pound.
Starting point is 00:21:56 Matthew F. That was a good time in our lives when we could eat as much pizza and drink as much pop as we like. Matthew F. That's true. Matthew F. And the government didn't know anything better than to warn us. Craig L. I think I was going to say the government couldn't track how much pop as we like. And the government didn't know anything better than to warn us. The government couldn't track how much pizza we were eating. Now they're watching and they're like, stop it. Put it down. You're with too many pizza points planned.
Starting point is 00:22:17 Yeah. Dr. Foushee knocks on your door. I know I'm crossing a full international border to tell you this, but you've reached your five slice max a month. Yeah, cause I remember there's only so many freestanding Pizza Hut restaurants left. We have one here in Vancouver. I haven't been to where it's on Grandview highway.
Starting point is 00:22:42 Okay, cause there is like a Pizza Hut just like in a Strip mall on Main Street. Oh, no, this is its own. It's a diner. It's a diner. Yeah Yeah, it's a diner and I remember Tim gray and I going to one in Winnipeg and trying to do the lunch buffet And we just ate ourselves sick Like we just kept eating and eating until we couldn't possibly eat anymore. And then just felt like awful the rest of the day. I used to go for all you can eat sushi. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:10 And it was- That's a good one, right? Oh, it was great. And it had a, it was a Korean barbecue as well. A little grill in the middle of the table. Nice. And they bring you your food. We would go with like 20 people. If you're at the wrong end of the table,
Starting point is 00:23:25 you're not getting anything. Like they just drop the food in the middle. It doesn't make its way down to you. But then sometimes you fill up and you're just filling out like pieces of paper and handing them to waitresses and they bring you your food. And then you're like, I'm still so hungry.
Starting point is 00:23:41 You fill out a form. I'm still so hungry. You fill out another form. And then you're suddenly so full and you're like, oh shit. They hungry, you fill out a form. I'm still so hungry, you fill out another form. And then you're suddenly so full and you're like, oh shit, they are going to bring us more food. And apparently what you don't eat, you have to pay for. Oh really? So it would be a lot of like, well,
Starting point is 00:23:54 I'm just gonna squish this down. Really small. Yeah. Pizza Delight didn't have that. They were like, if you don't eat it, we don't, we'll throw it out. We'll give it to the next guy. Now was this in your maritime days, Pizza Delight?
Starting point is 00:24:06 Yeah, yeah, Halifax. Bears Lake, buddy. In Halifax, they famously have Pizza Corner, which is- Pizza Corner has been basically dismantled. That's what I've heard. Yeah, it's gone. There was a yogurt place called Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:22 Y-E-H. Yeah. Yeah. Where the King of Denier used to be I think Sicilian slice is still there and then the other one is also something else now but a yogurt company of all things yeah downtown yogurt I when I was when I was drinking when I was living in Halifax and I was drinking when I was going full pirate we used to leave the dome a lot at two in the morning after like dollar drinks, drunk as hell.
Starting point is 00:24:47 And just everybody- The dome is a bar? Yeah. And everybody looked around and was like, yogurt, right? Yeah. But they didn't have it at the time. Can you imagine eating yogurt when you're drunk? Well, what's that sauce they put?
Starting point is 00:24:58 There's the Halifax sauce they put on. That's yogurt. Yeah, exactly. But yeah, it's, oh, that's sad to hear because I was an Institution for a long time. Well, downtown, Halifax itself, and people might disagree, the downtown core, I feel, has decided that they want to push out almost anybody
Starting point is 00:25:15 that's from Nova Scotia. Oh, God. It's not a pirate, downtown Halifax used to be a pirate ship, full of pirates, like from the East Coast. Now they, it's almost like a student center. They've almost It's it's like a it's like a Connection or a part of Dalhousie and I'm gonna get this a very down
Starting point is 00:25:36 Yeah, we're waiting. I'm trying they basically it's basically like look people are coming from outside the city We don't want them to be greeted by pirates who might bite and fight them Yeah, so you will leave will kick out all the things that you knew and liked down here We'll build like wine bars and yeah, yeah and that type of thing. Right? So they're they're trying to the harbor is now like Crazy like crazy nice very nice. Yeah, but it weirdly as a person who grew up there watching you know Others eat cigarettes when you when you go down there now. I'm like oh Yeah, it's almost like you're trying to bring Toronto here. Mm-hmm, so it just feels weird. I still love the city
Starting point is 00:26:19 It's where I'm from, but I don't know man. It doesn't feel very like Seagull-ish yeah, well that's I feel like Vancouver in the 70s and 80s it was kind of like a a gritty gritty yeah yeah like a lot of sailors would hang out here and beachcombers beachcombers they would uh they would show up every other day and I wasn't here for that I wasn't here for the gritty you were here for that but you were just a little you were just a little gritty boy a little beachcomber a little. I was just a little gritty boy. A little beachcomber. A little beachcomber. A little bitty gritty.
Starting point is 00:26:47 Yeah, but yeah, but Vancouver still has grit to it. Oh, it's still got grit, absolutely. It's just, you know. But I like that grit, like a Port City grit. Yeah. Like, why are season two? Like if you were, if you, you know, started a new soccer league, yeah
Starting point is 00:27:05 Yeah, we're the port city grid Actually is a pretty good name for a soccer team. Yeah, it's really good again. I was going through all the teams in the Major League soccer. Yeah, and none of them have names. They're all just like fake like Salt Lake City United or like oh, yeah just like fake like Salt Lake City United or like Miami FC. The only one that I mean there's the Vancouver, there's the Portland Timbers or the Portland Timbers FC. I think they're all, I guess a lot of them have names. Vancouver Whitecaps FC, Seattle Sanders FC, Halifax Wanderers, Pure FC.
Starting point is 00:27:41 But then there's like Inter Miami and Real Salt Lake, which are just like the, we saw it on a European team and we added it to ours. Somebody told me that the rumor is that they're going to sell the white caps. That's what I've heard. Two. Two, the highest bidder. The ice cap. The ice cap.
Starting point is 00:27:59 That rumor you heard that everyone's known for months. Oh, is it? I didn't know. It's been for sale. Oh, I didn't realize. It's been for sale. Oh, I didn't realize. I don't keep up with my Whitecaps news. Well, it was local news. It was like not even, it made it off the sports page
Starting point is 00:28:13 onto the front page. I'd go straight for the comedy review page and see. I'd go to the... Did anyone fuck over Wild River? I remember doing... Sadly. It's sadly over Wild River? I remember doing- Sadly. Sadly. Sadly.
Starting point is 00:28:27 Wild River. Sticking around for Nathan McIntosh made it impossible. Made the thing that he was mad at wasn't you, it was your placement on the show. Well, let's get serious. The thing he was mad about was definitely me. Wait, wait, wait. Did, is it possible that sticking around for Nathan made it,
Starting point is 00:28:48 I want to say Fielder, made it impossible. Macintosh, please, Jesus Christ. My last name is Macintosh. I'm a different guy than that guy. I'm not that guy. Sticking around for Nathan Macintosh made it impossible to see Wild Rivers.
Starting point is 00:29:02 So I didn't. I went and saw Wild Rivers. I didn't stick around. Yes, yes. That would have been better actually. But no, that's not what he said. The tone is, I wasted my life. That almost should have been what he wrote.
Starting point is 00:29:18 That would be the title of the review. The title of his book, memoir, I wasted my life chapter one god damn it what if I could have some Wild Rivers before they were selling out the the Rogers Center the BC dome whatever the fuck is here but everybody certainly they're well known enough that they're nominated for a Juno Award I could have seen them before they were nominated though I guess yeah that's true I remember doing JFL 42, which no longer exists, but you and I were on the same show,
Starting point is 00:29:47 I was early show, you were late show, and I got a review and you got a review, and my review was good, your review was out of this world. I didn't see it. I think you got. I really didn't see it. I think it's exclaiming. I only read the bad ones.
Starting point is 00:30:01 No, this is good, it's glowing, saying like, he's at the height of his powers. And you know, nothing like that got said. They were like, we like this guy. That was my room. Yeah, we like this guy. Yeah, this guy means well. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:14 Yeah. I was able to get to the concert I wanted to. Yeah, I saw Wild Rivers. This guy was so good that he went under his time and I was able to see wild rivers. God, I love wild rivers. You ever just sit back, are you ever just like camping and you go,
Starting point is 00:30:30 man, this really needs some wild rivers right now. Boy, I've- I'm gonna DM somebody from wild rivers and just let them know that I appreciate what it is that they do as well. Oh, they're gonna hear about it. Yeah. We go and talk about like a semi well-known Canadian celebrity on this show without them
Starting point is 00:30:51 hearing about it. Yeah, that's true. Is this true? That's great. I haven't listened to Wild Rivers yet, but I swear to God I will. First of all, I do really like the name. Secondly, I've been to Lake Louise Banff and you're standing up there and you're looking out sometimes at
Starting point is 00:31:05 a Wild River, but more so in the wilderness itself. And I have thought this needs a soundtrack. And I don't, I don't know about you guys, I like rap music, but it's hard to listen to in the woods. It's pretty much impossible to hear a guy talk about a gold chain and a woman shaking her ass while there's a fucking beaver kicking a damn... Well, I mean, you know, you're not that far. Oh, hey, I forgot. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I forgot about it.
Starting point is 00:31:32 The woman shaking her beaver and the hard thing to shake, by the way. You got to be a specific type of lady to be able to move that around. Yeah, shake it. I want answers. The best thing... I want answers. Where were you? What happened to all these trees? What happened to all these trees? Shake it a beaver for answers. Why did you block this?
Starting point is 00:31:56 Why did you block this? Anyways, ah-bop-bop. This is how I talk. This is how I talk. I'm sorry. I thought we were gonna do like a beach voice. Oh man. Look, I have a speech. Would it help if I told you I had a speech impediment
Starting point is 00:32:16 and it's a very real thing. Is it? Oh, a hundred percent. I'm so sorry. Not at all. Not at all. If anything, you have a speech achievement. You go so far in the other direction.
Starting point is 00:32:28 Too many words in one sentence. It's an achievement I've reached. Either way, I've been standing in wilderness and thought I needed a soundtrack and Wild River seems like the thing to me. When I leave here, I'm gonna check them out. And I am hoping at the awards tonight, the gala thing, there are bands playing.
Starting point is 00:32:48 I would, I honest to God, hope that one of them is Wild Rivers and that my bullshit doesn't get in the way of me fucking enjoying them. But here's what you do. If Wild River is playing, you find out that reviewer's email, you write a glowing review of how they're wild. Oh, you gotta meet them and take a selfie with them. 100%. Yes, yes.
Starting point is 00:33:09 I'm sure they're great. I really do. Yeah, but just like you sending a photo with the caption, Wild River was so great. And then sending it to that guy. Cause a lot of times they have like an address at the bottom of the video. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Sure, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it's the Vancouver Sun, so it's a paper.
Starting point is 00:33:23 You gotta. Yeah, yeah. I gotta. Oh, come on, you gotta meet Wild River today. We both have to, you're coming. I'm coming. Sure, yeah. Yeah. It's the Vancouver Sun, so it's a paper. You gotta. Yeah, yeah. I gotta. Oh, come on, you gotta meet Wilder Rivers today. We both have to, you're coming. I'm coming. This is great. My chances of winning are very low, very low indeed. I hope, and wild card this year,
Starting point is 00:33:35 and you just happen to be there. Write and vote. There was a sixth nominee, everybody. He didn't know, we didn't know. Here he is, you have to get up, dust yourself off. I just want to thank Wild Rivers for being here today. Well, Graham is the winner, but he obviously he's not in the room, so we can't give it to him. So we'll give it to one of the actual, oh, Graham is here.
Starting point is 00:33:58 Wee-hoo, wee-hoo. Do you have, do you have like a speech? You got 100% of gags. Yeah. I have a speech. Yeah. Nice. Do you guys want to hear it? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:12 Yeah. Thank you for giving me this. Do you know this now gives one more to the Maritimes with Anne Marie has like 26. Yeah. And I'm now adding to that collection cause they all get stacked in Oxford, Nova Scotia, the blueberry capital of the world.
Starting point is 00:34:29 It is blueberry capital, isn't it? Yeah. So this adds 26 or 27 to the top. Well, I'm sure also Rita McNeil has a big stack out there too. So whatever. You're getting played off. Do do do do do do. No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:34:42 Dress and park. I get attacked by Avril Lavigne dressed as a raptor. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, We're after an attack top. Rankin family probably have a few out there as well. Oh, hell yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:08 Oh yeah, I'm forgetting a lot of people. Hank Snow might have, I mean, I don't know if he was kicking around at the time. Oh, there's Stomp and Tom probably. Stomp and Tom probably had a few, yeah. Stomp and Tom's got to have a couple of fucking ones that he put under a board. When I worked at CBC in the CBC building, there was the studio floor, which is kind of the basement floor. And we were looking for an office to work in and we opened this office that I don't think had, it was
Starting point is 00:35:29 like one of those things where it hadn't been touched since the last person left it a decade ago. And there were two Junos just sitting there. I mean, I guess I could have just... They were lying around. I saw a bunch of the CBC, but they've gone through like different shapes over the years. They used to be like a... The power thing. Now it's like a guy in a ribbon. It's like a guy.
Starting point is 00:35:52 Yeah, it's a guy. It's a dude, yeah. I guess if you look at it... This is all part of my speech, by the way. You guys are... This is what you guys still are. Yeah, sorry, okay. No, no, no, I'm saying that this is all part of it.
Starting point is 00:36:00 This is all part of it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, 100%. I'll probably just read your guys' parts. Damn it, I have to find another and get out of here, Dilophosaurus. Yeah, it seems like winning an award is just such a golden opportunity to make just a one-liner and walk away.
Starting point is 00:36:20 Like I know that you want to thank everybody, but just like- That Joe Pesci Oscar speech. What did he say? It's my great privilege and just walked off the stage. Yeah. That's pretty awesome. thank everybody but just like that Joe Pesci show Oscar speech. What did he say? It's my great privilege and just walked off the stage. Yeah, that's pretty awesome. Yeah, something like that something Larry Davids This is all well and good, but I'm still bald. What was the one? Oh, yeah, who was that actress? I forget her name There was a woman it wasn't an Oscar it was an Emmy, so they're less memorable people. Yeah, I think probably those are the two my favorite acceptance speeches, but there's
Starting point is 00:36:54 also somebody accepting on somebody's behalf. That's always fun. Yeah, you should have someone accept on your behalf. Wild rivers. If I meet them tonight and I do win, I wanna get the whole band to go up. Did Jack Palance do one-armed push-up? He did one-armed push-up. Impossible.
Starting point is 00:37:11 Yeah. I guess you get... He went up and accepted a ward and did one-armed push-ups? It was either he was presenting or he accepting. Yeah, he had, because he won one year for... City Slickers? City Slickers, and then the next year he also presented because that's what they do.
Starting point is 00:37:30 But- For City Slickers too. More city. Legend of Curly's Gold. Dirtier streets. Is that what, I forgot that's what's called Curly's Gold? Legend of Curly's Gold. Yeah. Ha ha ha ha.
Starting point is 00:37:40 Na na na na. Na na na na. Guys, I haven't got the, I haven't even started yet. Ha ha ha. These are the thank yous. That would be very funny Guys, I haven't even started yet. These are the thank yous. That would be very funny if you're like, if I win, I want you guys to come in like right away. Like, I don't like to, no, no, no, okay.
Starting point is 00:37:56 As soon as I grab it, just start playing something. Did you guys see Adrian Brody's speech? Did it go for the brutalist for the Oscars? No. He won best actor and they started playing him off. He said, please don't, I've got this under control. And so they stopped. And then he continued for, it was the longest speech in Oscar's history.
Starting point is 00:38:19 Really? Wow. Four and a half minutes or something. And he said nothing. He said he didn't like, normally it's very chic these days to like have a cause. Yeah. And his was like, you know, no one believed in things
Starting point is 00:38:34 and then we believed in them. And then this movie happened. He seems like he would be insufferable. Yeah. Like as a person to be around, seems like he would be. Someoneerable. Yeah, like as a person to be around seems like he would be someone uses the term actor brain actor brain. Yeah, like just like did you guys see Demi Moore's for substance? No, oh, did you win the Golden Globe? Yeah, it was great. Yeah, it was just like a pretty she was just talking about how she thought, you'd have to watch it, I fucked up.
Starting point is 00:39:07 It all fell apart. But it- You should do it for your speech. Yeah. I would love to. I would love to talk about Demi Moore during my speech, if I'm being serious. Yeah, why not?
Starting point is 00:39:15 Yeah, it's Demi here. I'd like to give this a try. Nobody that you know is gonna be in the crowd or see this, because it's all live. It's not for tape. So you can say anything you want. You don't have to thank anybody. You can just go up there and do a bit and then walk away. I mean, at most there might be newspaper reviews of your speech. Sadly, the speech went so long that Wild Rivers could only do three of their four mega hits.
Starting point is 00:39:41 Moss on a hill. Salamanders looking at me. Pine tree to heaven. And maple syrup, I'm back. I mean, I don't want to know anything about them. I'm sad I know that they're a folk band because I'd really just like, the more we know about them, the meaner it would sound. I swear to Christ, I'm guarantee they're good. It just, the meaner it would sound. I swear to Christ, I guarantee they're good. It's just the thing maybe.
Starting point is 00:40:05 Yeah. But like if we like know specifics about them, then it gets mean. But the fact that they're just a name. Yeah. Wild River. But Demi Moore's thing was basically like she thought she was done. Her agent said that she was too old or something. And she basically said that you compare yourself so much to other people in this business.
Starting point is 00:40:22 And she started to really have a good time and enjoy what she was doing when she stopped when she put down the measuring stick. You know, I yeah, it's really good. I just you know, it was really, really good. I'd love that her agents like you're too old to be in the substance as the older person. They're actually actually going to go younger. Yeah, before the substance came around. She didn't think that she was ever going to get something like the substance again. Yeah, yeah before the substance came around she didn't think that this she was ever gonna get something like the substance again Yeah, there's only one a year. They're only doing one one movie for it's true They really only make one movie for an older actress She's had it her career is incredible. Yeah, she didn't do anything else ever again
Starting point is 00:40:57 Ghost ghost if she only did ghost then only did ghost or only did a few good men She only did those Vanity Fair covers. Ugh, my god. Fucking G.I. Jane. Do Meemore kicks ass? He does. And she had like a blow your hair back cameo in one of the Charlie's Angels movies, maybe the sequel.
Starting point is 00:41:18 Like everybody's like, oh my god, it's Demi Moore and she looks fantastic. Blow her hair back. Camera. That's what the reverse is. Oh my god, wow! My hair was so blown back, I missed Wild Rivers! What's the deal?
Starting point is 00:41:32 Sadly, my hair was blown directly off my head, and I was flushed to a hospital. I hope you keep that forever, and like, it's on your tombstone. Lost the Wild River. Lost to! Sadly, Istone. Lost the Wild River. Lost two. Sadly I stole a grave from Wild River. Or like whatever year you die, you know, 2027.
Starting point is 00:41:54 If he had only lived a little shorter, I would have been able to see Wild Rivers. This funeral really got in the way of that Wild Rivers concert I was supposed to see. By the way, we're giving away two tickets to Wild Rivers, the theme park, the water park. That's hilarious. Hemp the ride?
Starting point is 00:42:21 Hemp. Hemp is such like a nineties, like, oh, how come hemp is legal, but what's not? Yeah, what the hell, man? Do you know that our founding fathers grew hemp? Hemp clothing sucked, right? We all lived through it. I have a hemp, cotton hemp t-shirt and it's, you know what? Got that wiggly neck I don't like.
Starting point is 00:42:48 Yeah. I had for a long time, I had a hemp tuque and it was the best tuque I've ever had. Why? It just, like, just the way it sat was very comfortable. Yeah. Like, and it didn't do any like lines on the forehead or anything like that.
Starting point is 00:43:02 Like it was just, it shaped to my head perfectly. And it was- Hemp to head. Hemp to head, yeah, hemp to head transition. Yeah, I don't know where it is, but I remember also it had a little pocket in it that's where you put your weed. Sure.
Starting point is 00:43:20 Yeah, put your weed in the tube. That's where you put your key to a locker with more hemp clothing in it. Ah! Ah! Ah! Those are like big poncho type hoodie things that had the pocket in the front with the giant arms.
Starting point is 00:43:33 Yeah. Oh yeah. Those pissed me off so much. Drugs. Drugs. They just like, what, these arms, tighten the arms. It's such a dumb thing, but put an elastic, get a tighter arm on your hem clothing. But aren't you sometimes a little jealous of hippies that they can do that and not even think twice about it?
Starting point is 00:43:51 No, I'm not. No? Okay. No, I will say that. The hippies were walking around and thinking, everyone's jealous of me. Everyone's jealous of me and my hem drug rug. Well, Dave, what's happening with you? Tell me all about it.
Starting point is 00:44:05 Throw it to Dave. I'm throwing it over to Dave. Well, we've been, well, first of all, sad local news. Do you know what we're going to say? Wild River didn't win? No. Oh, yes, I do know what you're going to say. I think we sometimes brought up on the show before.
Starting point is 00:44:21 Something has passed away. Yeah, the McBarge. Have you heard of the McBarge. Have you heard of the McBarge? Nope. In 1986, Vancouver hosted the World Expo, Expo 86. And one of the features was a floating McDonald's. In my head, I was like, that has to be what that is. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:40 And- I love that. It was in the harbor. It kicks ass. It was amazing. Yeah, that's awesome. Like the harbor. It kicks ass. It was amazing. Yeah, that's awesome. Like the pictures of it, you're just like,
Starting point is 00:44:47 oh man, would have loved to eat a hamburger on the open seas. Mm-hmm. And then after the- Christopher Columbus used to do it. After Expo, it stuck around in the harbor for a while. I don't think it was working. No.
Starting point is 00:45:04 It was just there. And then they got rid of it and moved it out to like the suburbs. It was just down in the Fraser river or something. Derelict. Yeah. And like YouTubers would go and like take photos and videos of it. They would like take a photo.
Starting point is 00:45:16 Hey, this is the McBarge. Check out my TikTok where I point to the old pictures of the McBarge and it says what happened to the McBarge. Well, the McBarge sank. Sank. It sank! It just sank this week. Come on! Who did that? Burger King? The Burger Barge?
Starting point is 00:45:32 Yeah, it was... Shooting whoppers at it? The Burger Barge. Big cannons full of those chicken nuggets? Yeah, was there any pirate... I don't know. There'd have to be a Wendy's ship out there, the Dave Thomas. Or is there a, in the, you know,
Starting point is 00:45:48 is a Hamburglar in that sort of universe? There is a pirate in the McDonaldland universe. Is there? Yeah. What's his name? It's like Captain Cookie or something like that. I think he's the representative of the cookie. Holy fuck, yes.
Starting point is 00:46:02 Oh my God, Captain Crook. Captain Crook, there we go, yeah. From the McDonald, we. Yeah from the McDonald's This we're going to McDonald's wiki here. Yeah, this is him, but he became a cookie I think didn't he didn't he like his face was a cookie at some point time. I remember that kind of yeah My face was a cookie at this This I think maybe he got edged out because he was maybe a crook that was stealing Hamburgers and then Hamburgler.
Starting point is 00:46:25 It's too many people. Hamburgler is a way better name than Captain Crook. The character is comparable to the Hamburgler, but rather than hoarding hamburgers, he tries to steal Filet-O-Fish sandwiches. Here you go, have them. Well, didn't Grimace start out as a milkshake thief? Yeah, and he had more than two arms.
Starting point is 00:46:45 He had like four. Yeah, so they all. Wow, wow, wow. As shakes as he could. What was McDonald's fascination with all their mascots steeled from you? Yeah, and I mean the system works because they've all been rehabilitated.
Starting point is 00:46:58 Yep, that's right. Yeah, Hamburglar has changed his name officially to Ham Donor. Yeah. Ham Donor. Ham Celebrator. He buys burgers for sick kids. Do you guys remember McDonald's pizza? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:15 Yes. Kicked ass. It did kick ass. It took a while though. Like you would go and they'd say, okay, that'll be 12 minutes. Yeah. I mean, fuck, it was so good. It's so good. I would love to'll be 12 minutes. Yeah, that's, I mean, fuck it was so good. It's so good.
Starting point is 00:47:26 I would love to have one right now. Yeah. Like right now I'd love to have one more in my lifetime. Yes. Just one. You know, apparently in like one place in Virginia, they still make it. But I don't know.
Starting point is 00:47:38 They still make the pizza? Yeah, he's like, I'm doing it. I don't care. We're still, he went rogue. Cause I don't even know if they had it in the States to begin with. Was it, it couldn't have been a candidate only. So these are the top pages on McDonald's wiki this week.
Starting point is 00:47:52 Number five, Birdie the early bird. Yeah. Number four, McPizza. Okay. Number three, Uncle O'Grimmacy, which is the Irish Grimace. Yeah, Irish Grimace. Number two is Hamburglar
Starting point is 00:48:04 and number one is Grimace this week. Let's check out the McPizza. Sub-Wiki? There's a lot of people in the States that don't remember the pizza, never had it. Well, okay. Really? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, so the McPizza is a discontinued
Starting point is 00:48:16 McDonald's menu item, which was launched in the mid-80s. I remember it in the early 90s. Same. Me too. And mostly discontinued by around 2000. Currently, only one location in Orlando, Florida, still serves the McPizza. Nice. What? Wow. Oh man, I gotta get that. If it's the same pizza, that thing was amazing. Well, they say here launched in the mid-80s and one inch away it says date of introduction 1989. So. Yes. But I remember. I remember it being such a big deal. It was, and it was like a huge campaign.
Starting point is 00:48:47 There was also a campaign for something called, I want to say it was called the Arch Deluxe. Yeah. And it was Ron McDonald doing adult things, buying porn and such. Renting a car. Getting a big bottle of Jack Daniels. Yeah, paying $200 a year bottle of Jack Daniel.
Starting point is 00:49:05 Yeah, paying $200 a year for his credit card. He was on a golf course, he was in a board meeting, and the Arch Deluxe was a Big Mac for adults because it had more lettuce in it or something like that. I loved it when it came out. It was so delicious. It's a great name. Yeah, Arch Deluxe. Arch Deluxe. I wonder if they have a page for it was so delicious. It's a great name. Yeah, Arch Deluxe. Arch Deluxe.
Starting point is 00:49:25 And like- I wonder if they have a page for it. They do. Yeah, I definitely, I got into it and then of course they discontinued it. It was- They were like, if Graham finds out about this, we have to shut it down.
Starting point is 00:49:36 It was sold in 1996 and marketed specifically to adults. Yeah, it was a porno burger. Who were the big adults in 1996? Well, Bella Carolli, Jenna Jameson, Will Smith, 1996, Welcome to Earth, Welcome to Deluxe.
Starting point is 00:49:56 But yeah, I'm sad to hear about McBarge. Yeah, so that's one thing going on. Okay. And the other thing related to kind of to McPizza is I have two kids and they, my 10 year old is getting more into like making her own food. Okay, sure.
Starting point is 00:50:17 Which is a big step. Yeah. And so like I'm showing her how to like scramble eggs and like make ramen, just like easy kid stuff. And we've discovered Pizza Pops. Nice. The microwavable snack. Look, it's garbage food, but.
Starting point is 00:50:33 Yeah, but it's garbage you want to eat. I know, but yeah. And you're like, we give them good food and they eat it and then they're still hungry. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But have we just discovered, now this is a thing that's been around for a few years, but I never Did it never bought them before?
Starting point is 00:50:49 the Uncrustables, I don't know what I didn't know. I didn't know we sold those not kidding in Canada Yes, I thought that'd be one of the things that Canada went Absolutely. Not yeah, it's a prepackaged sandwich with the crust cut off. Pre-packaged. So like, are we talking about PB&J or? Yes. Yeah. So it's got no crust and it's sort of sealed at the edges,
Starting point is 00:51:13 crimped at the edges. Look at that though, Graham. Do you think that should be sold here? I don't like it. Any country shouldn't be allowed to sell this to anybody ever. And- Even the picture where it's supposed to look good
Starting point is 00:51:23 doesn't look good. You know what I mean? Like where it can't photograph photograph well. Yeah, that's horrible. I disagree. I think it looks fine. Why is this one dripping? That's the adult. This one's dripping Crystal Pepsi. But so we bought some of these. Yeah, they are the most useless snack in the world Because you you buy them frozen. Yeah, and then it says You pull them out and the package says wait 30 minutes to an hour for them to thaw before eating
Starting point is 00:51:59 Who's got who thinks about if you have an hour you could make your own sandwich Yeah, and and cut the grass. That's that you can't cut the crust off in an hour. Come on No way that's that's where the unquestionable comes into play. You've made a sandwich before you're on. Okay, you have a big meeting Yeah, you're on your way. You're on your way out the door huge meeting with an arch deluxe for dinner I say to myself. Yeah, so you're, I have an hour before I gotta go. You make the PB&J, that's 39 minutes. And then you go, I don't want the crusts. You can't do this with the Wonder Bread.
Starting point is 00:52:33 Getting a knife, cutting it, finding a board, that's like 60 minutes. Plus yeah, I mean, it's not one crust. It's got four sides of the bread. And each one of those you need to call somebody to help you with. Yeah, so the Uncr. Well does come into play but Yeah, it's a horrifying piece of I didn't know we sold I've got no problem with it existing
Starting point is 00:52:54 But that that thought I'm the look at that. That's horrible. That's a horrifying sandwich It looks like a little cake snowman when you because the... I got no problem with it. That is horrible. Well, I mean, it's food with food inside. I don't... But like, you know what? If I get a hold of, if Mark Carney is at the Junos tonight, which he very well could be inducting Wild Rivers
Starting point is 00:53:17 into the Canada Hall of Fame, I will tell him, please ban the Uncrustable, get it out of our country, get it the hell out of here. If you do nothing else, yourrustable get it out of our country get it the hell out of here You do nothing else your honor Get it out of your excellence. Is it a play on? words Unstoppable and I guess it's on unstoppable or unsinkable maybe unfuck this same which can't sink This is not a crustable sandwich
Starting point is 00:53:44 And the deal with this is I can't even I started it this way Sink? This is not a crustable sandwich. What's the deal with this is, I can't even believe I started it this way. Do people hate crusts this much? I like a crust. Me too. Oh yeah, me too. Yeah. What about the crustables?
Starting point is 00:53:55 I want more crust. More crust. Yeah. They should- Give me all the crust from the uncrustables. Thank you. Make me a crustable. I want a sandwich out of crust.
Starting point is 00:54:02 Pizza Hut should make a stuffed crust pizza, crust with more stuffed. Yes. Stuffed with more crust. Oh yes. Ha ha ha. Charge you more, there's more crust in the crust. And the mascot for Uncrustables would be Constable Crustable.
Starting point is 00:54:17 He's the guy who saves the crustables. Waving a big stick. Yeah, yeah, yeah. A l'appetit. And then the opposite of him would be unconstable, crustable, unconstable, uncrustable, who would be like a guy who steals uncrustables. Yes, yes, yes.
Starting point is 00:54:31 This all works very well. They both used the Big Boss Man's theme song. Well, I don't remember his theme song. I don't either, but I just heard it from Macon County, Georgia. It was Staring at a Lizard by Wild Rivers. Staring at, Saskatchewan again by Wild Rivers. Staring at Saskatchewan again by Wild River. I know they're a great band.
Starting point is 00:54:49 Yeah, they're the best. I did not think we had this because there are certain things that we don't get. And I thought this was one of the things because you see the sandwich, you know that they, this is not just frozen. You can buy this on like a shelf. Okay.
Starting point is 00:55:03 In the America. It's shelf stable. Yeah. Does that not freak you out? It's horrifying. I mean, it's bread and I mean, all those things are shelfable. You're right. Are shelfable. Although you're in one box. Yeah, I do put my... Your crust down? No, I put my jelly back in the fridge when I'm done with it. Yeah. I put peanut butter in the, well, almond butter in the fridge. Yeah, almond butter. I know, I know. I'm already in almond butter.
Starting point is 00:55:28 I should get a credit card for $200 a year. Exactly, you deserve it. Air fryer, uncrustables. This changes everything. Yeah, that'll blow your head right off. Oh. Exactly. Blow your hair back. How to make uncrustable donuts dipped in cinnamon sugar.
Starting point is 00:55:43 This just keeps getting fatter and fatter. Um, anyway, check them out. Oh, but Totino's pizza rolls we don't have in Canada. We only have pizza pops and pizza pockets, but pizza rolls. We don't have pizza, don't we have another pizza roll? Not pizza pops, pizza pockets, pizza pops, pizza pockets. Didn't we have pizza roll?
Starting point is 00:56:01 I've had a pizza roll here. No. Have you brought them from the States? No, I'm talking about as a kid. Oh I had to have and I didn't break I didn't jump a fence or anything to get them It just they were there but you know used to Halifax was a lot more skullduggery So you might want to get the port city. So we used to steal things right off the ship. They were supposed to go down there Everybody get a little crate, right? Yes. Yeah a lot of Dale Earnhardt jr Everybody get a little crate, right? Yes, yes.
Starting point is 00:56:22 A lot of Dale Earnhardt Jr. merch floating around Halifax only because people wanted to steal that day. Yeah, yeah. A lot of Intimidator hats. Yeah, wasn't there, isn't there a pizza roll? Do we not have anything in Canada? We don't have a McCain's pizza roll. I'm sure McCain, McCain does the pizza pocket,
Starting point is 00:56:41 which isn't as good as the, no wait, who does the pizza pop? That's Pillsbury. Pillsbury, yeah. Pillsbury, yeah, and I love Pillsbury. Their branding is better too. That box is just a fiesta. The orange box. Orange box. And the cr- they have a crust on that one.
Starting point is 00:56:54 They do have a little crimped edge on that. The McCain one is just a round disc. Yeah, it's like a- Yeah. Like a puck of sauce. It was like a puck, yeah. This one was more like a wallet. Yeah, a wallet. Yeah. A wallet of sauce. Yeah, this one was more like a wallet. Yeah, a wallet. A wallet of sauce. Delicious.
Starting point is 00:57:08 Three cheeses and a wallet. I haven't had one of those in so long, but they were so good as a kid. Check out my freezer. Running to a microwave. Well, I'm gonna steal it on my way out of the house. Okay, cool. I'm gonna take another coffee and a pizza pocket.
Starting point is 00:57:19 Bake and double cheeseburger. Taking Uncrustable. So we tried Uncrustables. I think that was a failed proposal. And anyway, let me know what my kids should cook. Open to ideas. Open to ideas. Beef wellington.
Starting point is 00:57:32 Certainly if we're camping, we're gonna, you know, have a hot dog on a stick. Hot dog on a stick, yes. Another great Wild Rivers song. And we would be listening to Wild River the whole time. Hot dog on a Stick, the album. Yeah, you guys may remember this from our first album. Hot Dog on a Stick, everybody holds up their hot dog on a stick.
Starting point is 00:57:54 Yeah, instead of a lighter or a phone, they light a hot dog on fire and hold it up. That's great. All right, well, Graham, what's going on with you? Well, not too much, but the other day I tried to watch a horror movie that the opening sequence of it was so upsetting that I couldn't watch the rest of it. Sally and I were like, we can't, we can't. It's too dark, it's too miserable. So we stopped watching it and then she went to bed and then she went to bed and then she the rest of it. Sally and I were like, we can't, we can't. It's too dark, it's too miserable.
Starting point is 00:58:25 So we stopped watching it and then she went to bed and I was like, I still need to watch something, you know? So there's, I have Shudder, which I don't think, you're a horror movie fan. Yeah. You don't have Shudder. I don't have Shudder. But I feel like you should have Shudder. You know why? 200 bucks a year.
Starting point is 00:58:40 But you got so many points. Damn it, Shudder points? Yeah, you get Shudder points. That's hilarious. I'm bringing in a guy from Transylvania on my Sh so many points. Damn it. Shutter points? Yeah. That's hilarious. I'm bringing in a guy from Transylvania on my shutter points. No, I don't want to get shutter. And maybe I will at some point in time, but I don't want to have all of the access to just,
Starting point is 00:59:00 there's going to be so many B horror movies on there, C horror movies on there, right? No, yes, they do have like a lot, but you, the type that you would love. Like the crazy one from the 80s and like the early 90s, they've got all those. Whoa, gnarly 80s stuff, dude. Wolfman's got nerds, et cetera.
Starting point is 00:59:18 But yeah, they've got really up to date stuff and foreign stuff. And so the other thing I was like, what's just something, cause they have kind of like a sillier category. up-to-date stuff and foreign stuff. And so the other thing I was like, what's just something, because they have kind of like a sillier category. So I was like, oh, there's a documentary called Doc of Chucky.
Starting point is 00:59:32 So it's all about the Child's Play series and the Chucky, when he broke out of that. Oh, Doc as in documentary. Okay, I was like, is there a doctor in the house? I pictured like a Doc, like a Chuck Barge. A Doc, oh yeah. Oh sure. He flocked in.
Starting point is 00:59:47 I'm gonna swim onto the Chuck Barge today anyways. So I was watching it for half an hour and then I was like, okay, I'm gonna go. How many of the Chuck E movies have you seen? I think I've seen all of them at this point. What? I think so. Wow, okay, that's like eight or nine movies now.
Starting point is 01:00:04 Yeah, I think like I was terrified of him This guy describes to shut her. Yeah. Yeah, that's true. I was horror He was like the scariest thing to me as a kid. I had super nightmares about Chuckie as a kid great redhead representation That's true. Yeah, all the redheads in the 90s a problem child Chuckie They were all ugly little fucking mutants that either killed or bothered people blew up their houses. Yeah fucking mutants that either killed or bothered people and blew up their houses. Yeah, that was the problem child. That's what I mean. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:27 Chuckie was murdering. But the problem child looks like Chuckie. They look the same. They do. They look like the same. And the documentary was so cool because they showed like, it's all practical effects, so they had to make this little puppet that could run around and- He he he.
Starting point is 01:00:41 Yeah, exactly. I assume. But then I was like, okay okay I'll watch the rest of this tomorrow and so I put it on the next day and it was an hour into a four hour document yeah it's four hours I haven't made it through but I was like what there's three more hours of this I watched it you watched all I have seen the whole thing and see we last, we had dinner and you said... Wait, is this new? Huh? Wait, it came out a couple years ago. Okay. Yeah, but you said you'd seen it. I've seen it.
Starting point is 01:01:12 But you've also hit me to two that I didn't know existed. There's one, there's a, I can't remember the name of it, but there's a full one about, it's nine hours, and it's uh... This is what blew me away. Oh, no, wait, no, sorry, it might be four or five hours actually of all the Nightmare on Elm Street. No, I think it's got to be longer, four or five hours. Yeah. But all the Nightmare on Elm Street and then there is like a 11 to 13 hour one about all the Friday the 13th. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:38 And they're both fantastic. Yeah. Both really good. Yeah, the Chuckle of Grave. Are they broken into like, you know, airtime? Each hour is like broken down in each movie, basically. And they're both great. The Chuck E ones are very good, but-
Starting point is 01:01:51 Is it Ken Burns? Ken Burns? Yeah, it felt like- A lot of slow zooms in on a hockey mask. Yeah, a lot of zoom-ins, a lot of panning. I remember watching a documentary about Robert Johnson that sold his soul to the devil for a guitar there's only like four guitar skills yeah for a guitar you can have others in a music store man but also a guitar you can't play damn it
Starting point is 01:02:16 watch a documentary about him and there's only two known photos of him they're constantly panning over the same photo because there's one of him. So they are constantly panicking over the same photo over and over again. Cause there's one of him like as a, like a portrait and then one of them with his guitar and those are the two photos. The devil has a couple of them that we're not able to get hold of. Yeah, that's true.
Starting point is 01:02:34 That's what he held over him. Yeah, a few souls, pictures, him laughing and pointing at a soul. When it's like, I mean, I guess I don't know what I would sell my soul to the devil for. Cause like the devil is just gonna show up. If you know what you want, the devil's,
Starting point is 01:02:46 the first step in getting what you want is knowing what you want. And the devil's there to give it to you. Yeah, what would, oh, that's a really fundamental question. What would I sell my soul for? Like a skill or money or? For me it would be like some of these Uncrustables. The cinnamon donut Uncrustables.
Starting point is 01:03:02 I would sell my soul for DraftKings ads. To be able to, to be able to be sponsored by and promote solely everyday all day DraftKings. Pads, shirts, 20% off. This is a gambling, do we, we don't have it in Canada. Yeah, we have every. We got it all, we got all the gambling. You know our sports, because that's,
Starting point is 01:03:21 it's all in the ads for that now. I'm busy watching Chuck E. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm busy watching Chucky by five hour of Dictomantra. You don't have time. No, it is an epidemic now in sports watching. It's all ads for gambling and then just segments on gambling. Really?
Starting point is 01:03:37 Totally. Oh, I didn't. I would sell my soul to do that. Remember when there would be boxers who would get like, you know, Golden Palace sharpied on their back? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Just so like, advertise while they were shirtless. Yeah. And there was one time maybe not Sharpie. There was a boxer that lost in like two punches against Tyson, I think. And they had him do an ad for Pizza Hut's Stuffed
Starting point is 01:04:05 Cross Pizza, and it was him trying to eat the pizza, and then he accidentally knocks himself out with the slice. That's awesome. Yeah, it was really good. It was like, they aired it within two weeks of it happening. So everybody's like, hey, that's the guy that got knocked out. What's his face? George Foreman recently died.
Starting point is 01:04:19 I know. And there were a Myniki, who I guess he did ads for, had billboards up Said that was like we'll miss you George. Oh, that's nice. People's breaks will never be this. Yeah Yeah breaks all over America right now are not being fixed. We you know, we always loved How you would put your name on anything? Yeah, and The amount of money you made on the grill which Hulk Hogan claims he was offered first. I don't believe it.
Starting point is 01:04:46 He also claims that he wrestled 400 days a year because he would go back and forth to Japan. That's right. So the time changed. He would have extra days. He also claimed he was offered a spot in Metallica. Yeah. True. And also he said he was the first choice to be in the movie the wrestler
Starting point is 01:05:06 Which Darren Aronofsky is like no it was Mickey Rourke. That's why I had Mickey Rourke That's why I hired an actor. Yeah, I wanted Mickey Rourke to be in it. George Foreman was awesome. He was awesome I remember there was a guy in the 90s that He was the champ but everybody hated him because he got there by beating up older guys or out of their prime guys. He had such a attitude on him. This is boxing. I think his name was Michael Madd. Michael Michael Motorcycle.
Starting point is 01:05:38 Michael Motorcycle, he turned the key and he was Pete. But everybody hated him and he was the champ and George Mormon came out of retirement, beat him, and I went back into retirement again. And it was the best. That's sort of like how Godzilla movies work. Yeah. Godzilla comes out of the water, beats up Tokyo and goes back in the water. Or stops others from beating up Tokyo.
Starting point is 01:06:04 He'll take on Mothra. Yeah. Mecha Godzilla. Please spare Tokyo. I've already stomped it flat. Do you guys want to move on to some over herds? Yes. Dr.

There's a lot of crazy people and Sitting on the train waiting to move and a guy walked in to the train crazy got and he looked at a person and said you're broke as hell and stupid and do you think that's when the guy like decided to turn his life around well he kind of looked up most like what and then the guy then said gibberish he had one sentence you broke his own stupid
Starting point is 01:10:41 yes you're broke as hell and stupid and that was he was in his head he's like And that was he was in his head. He's like, this one is the one that I'm going to start with. Yeah. But then and that's a very coherent sentence. And then after that was just sort of that's class clown energy. Yeah, you you're broke as hell and stupid. And then basically, yeah. And that person just kind of got up and moved away. Wow. But like, can you imagine that person like changes their whole life because of this? It's like poignant thing to work on. Pardon me? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:09 Out of nowhere and somebody you're broke as hell and stupid. I mean, most, most people that could relate to. Yeah. On almost any given day, other than $200 a year on a credit card, but other people buying sandwiches that are with the cross cut off. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:22 I don't have $200 anymore. I spent it all on credit cards. On crustables. But there's a lot of people off. Yeah, I don't have $200 anymore. I spent it all on uncrustables. But there's a lot of people that you could, I don't know, maybe that person did, yes, change their whole life. Yeah, I became like a buying uncrustables on Klarna. I'm David, you have one over here? Yep. I was exiting a grocery store. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 01:11:45 Carrying a bag. I can picture it. Reusable bag. Off to home I go to cook up my groceries. Brrr. Brrr. Ha ha ha. Haunting him home.
Starting point is 01:11:55 With groceries in a bag. Oh, you're here early. Ha ha ha. You said it would take an hour. Ha ha ha. I'm halfway through this Chucky documentary. Leave, I don't want you to see it. Ha ha ha.
Starting point is 01:12:04 Sssss. You said it would take an hour. I'm halfway through this Chucky documentary. Leave, I don't want you to see it. That's very tame. Anyway, so as I'm leaving the grocery store, there's a guy walking into the grocery store on the phone having a conversation. He says, we're very present at the market. We're talking to people, we're being polite. That's a big obstacle for a lot of businesses, being polite. Yeah, I think he was talking about maybe he's at a farmer's market,
Starting point is 01:12:31 they've got something set up and it's, it's not a farmer's market season, but maybe he's at like, you know, a maker's fair. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But you know, you'll always see me around there. I'm talking to people, I'm being polite. My whole crew is, we are. Yeah, we sell, you know, we sell everything from onions
Starting point is 01:12:46 all the way to Funyuns. Yeah, yeah. From onions to Funyuns. That's a great slogan for a store. From onions to Funyuns, we've got it all. Yeah, you do your perimeter shopping and then you do the aisles. We're very present is funny.
Starting point is 01:13:03 We're very present in the market. Yeah, and we're very friendly. We're talking to people. We're being polite. You can't miss us. Mine is courtesy of being at a bar the other evening that had on tap a gluten-free beer. So I was like, why not?
Starting point is 01:13:23 You have some gluten-free beers in my fridge. Do I? Yeah. I think from Christmas. We'll do that for a night record. Okay. That'll be a bonus content, Dave and I get ripped. But I was at a bar, sitting at the bar, and there was a guy who was like a bar fly guy.
Starting point is 01:13:40 He's trying to know everybody around him. He's trying to have conversations. He's very loud. He's very loud. He's very present. He's very present. He's talking to people. He's being polite. Yeah, he wasn't really being that polite because he was talking to people that were like
Starting point is 01:13:50 trying to back out of the conversation. When he started talking, I got up and moved as far down the bar as I possibly could. And then he was like chatting with the bartenders. It must've been like 20, I guess, you know? And he's like an old, like in his 60s, somebody that shouldn't be conversing with a 20-year-old except for, can I have this drink?
