My name is Graham and with me as always is a man who, this is, what would you say this week two of No Beard? Mr. Dave Schumke.

I'd say it's week four or five. Oh really? Gosh. Yeah man. Yeah. Seems not that long ago but also... But it could come back any time. Is it, is it like if you're just too lazy to shave for a couple days or do you make a conscious decision we're bringing back the beer?

Yeah, it's usually a book on this and I talked to my priest, I talked to my family. And you all you do it like just one day at a time you check in. Okay, the whiskers are starting to form. We're building a beard here. Yeah, I do it one day at a time. It's sort of like the whiskers are starting to form. We're building a beard here. What are you talking about?

Shave your beard every once in a while. Yeah, I should, right? Show everybody my weirdo chin. Yeah, go on like when they would do, on Jenny Jones, they would do makeovers. Full makeover. And like someone would bring their son who's like a biker dude.

Yeah. And they'd be like, put him in a V-neck sweater. But he stays a biker dude, but then he starts wearing V-neck sweaters everywhere. He's still got his like patches. He's got his biker vest is a sweater vest and it's got crocheted onto it.

If you can read this, the bitch fell off. See that's a makeover that worked. Our guest today, very funny comedian. She has featured on the new waves of standup on CBC Jam. New waves? New waves. New wave of standup. New wave, new wave of standup. It's Randy Neumeier. Hello, Randy. Hello,

what's up? It's all happening. How are you doing? I'm good. I'm breaking in a new pair of Doc Martens. That's huge. Yeah. How long have you had them? Just today. Today? Oh shit, okay. Did they arrive in the mail today? No, I bought them a few days ago, but today I'm like walking around in them all day till the blood comes. Yeah, yeah, exactly. Till the blood comes. Do we want to get to know us?

Yeah. Get to know us. Randy, how many pairs of Doc Bartons have you owned in your life? This is just my second pair. Okay. Were the first pair brand new? Yes, I've been buying brand new, but that's only because I have big feet and Facebook Marketplace doesn't have my size. I am aware. I always have to buy my shoes new as well. There's no chance of a thrift store

shoe fitting wide, Flintstone feet is what I have. Oh, yeah. I mean, I think that's, most people will go new shoe. Yeah. Like even if you're into thrifting, you're like, well, I mean. Probably get a couple of new shoes. Yeah.

I did get some Converse at the thrift store. Okay, if you have big feet, go to the Richmond Value Village. They always have size 10s there for some reason. Okay. Are you a size 10? Yeah, I'm a size 10. Oh!

Right. I'm jealous. But I got these converse and then I found a spider inside them. Oh shit. Ooh. Live spider? No, it was dead.

Okay, but still, how long have those shoes been sitting there that a spider would build it? Exactly. Oh boy, was there, no, there was little Miss Muffet who had the spider. It wasn't the old lady who lived in the shoe. No, she suffocated from carbon monoxide. And there was also a spider who went up the water spout.

Oh yeah. And taught us something about perseverance. That's right. Did we get the news? We did. Good, welcome back everybody. Um, was your, you were asking about the Doc Martens. I also have a question about the Doc Martens and here it is.

Did you, do you still have your old Doc Martens? Yes, cause they're different. They're different. So your, this is your second pair. Have you, before you got that first pair, what was your go-to? Probably a high top Converse. Okay, yeah, classic.

Can you still wear those? They hurt my back, I can't wear them anymore. The high top Converse? Yeah. What the hell? Like the Converse classics. Oh, I still have, I have three pairs. Yeah, I used to have, that was my go-to shoe. And then? I wore mine today and I, then I changed out of them. I wore them to drop off because my kids

were both wearing theirs. Yeah. And then I had to walk the dogs and I was like, I'm going to put on a more supportive shoe. Yeah, a supportive sneaker. Oh no, is this the future? Yes, very much. Yeah. Yeah. Like you'll be walking on a very hard service at one point, you'll be like, huh, that doesn't feel quite right. My back, maybe your neck. I don't know.

What else are the things? Well, yeah, yeah. Well, your crack is part of it as well. I don't know. The dealer's choice. But I still like a, you know, I like a canvas summertime shoe, a van. I love them, yeah.

Oh yeah, yeah, I like a KED. A KED, a van. Oh, KEDs, yeah, yeah, yeah. But you don't need any kind of, well, obviously you don't need any support if you're wearing Converse around. No, I do. Good for you. I hope that stays that way, yeah.

Now, last time you were on the show, I remember, the one thing, it's like, well, Randy hasn't been on since before the pandemic. Oh yeah, how was your pandemic? I actually loved it, man. I got into exercising. It was a lifelong goal and now I do it all the time. Nice.

Before the pandemic, you were on the show and we were talking about spin class. Oh yes. So you're already into exercising, I believe. That wasn't true. Like that was like, I found out spin class is just like evil cardio. It's not actually building muscle.

Oh, is it just, and it's just humiliating you? Is that what they're into? In a way. And now I like weight lift, but I still do spin classes on YouTube in the gym So it's just me in a room with people being like I Do or I see those peloton licey videos of I

Don't know for some reason in my algorithm. I get videos of Peloton classes where they'll like shout out usernames and there's a lot of like, you know, IP freely. Like it's videos of Ben fun. Yeah. Tricking the. That's good, I like that. Yeah, like, oh, great work on this. Hey, congratulations on your hundredth ride,

Jonathan poo face. I can't think of any fun puns. What are you, what are you bench? What's your bench? Ooh, you're. How much your bench? Yeah, how much a bench? Okay, well, I can, I can hip thrust over a hundred.

Yeah, that's great. But only on the dance floor. But when I'm doing chest, I'm only lifting 40. Nothing bad about that. You're doing it. You're out there. You're lifting. Did you have to take any kind of class to figure out how to do all that stuff or did

you just learn online or? No, I learned from like Instagram, YouTube, TikTok. Okay. Nice. I don't know how to, yeah. I think in high school, we did weightlifting in like grade 11 and 12 and just kind of, hey, kids, learn your way around the gym. Yeah.

And I remember the gym teacher saying, and don't be worried about stunting your growth because that's like, this is like, if you learn it properly, you won't stunt your growth. Because that was, I guess, a big concern about like, little kids starting weightlifting too early. It's never too early kids and never too late unless you're quite, you know. That was a big thing about stunting your growth was a big thing growing up. Drinking coffee.

Drinking coffee. Smoking cigarettes. Yeah. Yeah, I wonder if I did smoke cigarettes. Iinking coffee. Drinking coffee. Smoking cigarettes. Smoking cigarettes. Yeah. Yeah, I wonder if I didn't smoke cigarettes. I probably would be like seven, two at this point. I would have just kept growing exponentially, but love those ciggies. Me and my dad always drink coffee together.

Yeah? I'm five, seven, man. That didn't stun your foot growth. Jealous. And that didn't stun your foot growth. Jelous. We had a kid over for a playdate this weekend and she had very big feet. And I was, cause she left her shoes at the front door and I'm like, this isn't a kid's shoe. Who's here in adult shoes?

Everybody hold up your feet. Oh, it's you. Was it like a size seven? No, it was a size five, but she was very, she's in grade three. Yeah. She's bigger than my grade five kid. Is it like with a puppy where they have big? Yeah, she just needs to grow into them.

They've got big paws. So yeah, maybe she'll be, what's a tall person activity besides basketball? Javelin? What's a big foot person activity? Certainly being big foot. Speaking of all things Olympic sport, javelin, a shot put champion was just set a record and it was Brock Lesnar's daughter.

And man, is she Brock Lesnar's daughter and a man is she Brock Lesnar's daughter Oh like a rock Lesnar's a wrestler. He's a wrestler. That's like shaped like a trapezoid be Brock wrestler They really missed an opportunity He shaped like a trapezoid imagining that He-man fellow the young he-man fellow. Yeah. With the springy legs. Inspector Gadget.

Anyway. But yeah, anyways. Any shot put aspirations? No, the only shot put person's name I know is Mistrenchable. Well, she was a hammer throw. Oh, she was a hammer throw? Yeah. It was the same mechanism, mechanics of hammer throwing that she used to grab that girl by the braids.

Do you know who this is? No. I just think it's very funny that a girl would be pulled by the braids. She's from Matilda. Oh, okay. And she's a champion hammer thrower? Yeah. Hmm.

Never read Matilda. Don't know my way around the Matilda lore. Well, it's also a book and a musical. I mean, also a movie and a musical and a movie musical. Really? Mm-hmm. Is it old from back in the day or is it? It's rolled doll.

Oh, okay. Roll doll kind of old I read it when I was a kid. Yeah But the movies from the 90s Danny DeVito. Oh, yeah, he played myself Andrea Perlman as the parents really? Yeah. I love that. Why don't they work together more? They're quite a pair. Yeah Love that. Why don't they work together more? They're quite a pair. Yeah.

I think I heard that they were divorced, but they live in houses right next to each other or some crazy thing. Yeah, I heard that. I mean, they seem to have a special relationship. Yeah. I mean, that would be an interesting compromise. Like, okay, we're gonna get the divorce,

but we have to be next door neighbors. That is like the ultimate in rich person luxury. We're just gonna have our own house. Well, we can buy these houses side by side and be divorced. I think that's the ultimate goal when you're married though. Is to live in your own house. Live in a house beside them. Yeah, I mean, hey, that's the dream, right?

I can only live it by going camping and then we'll sleep in our own tents. Yeah. Yeah. Danny DeVito's got, he's got to be a very rich man at this point. He's been in a lot of blockbuster films and you know what? And taxi. That's right. Tax right taxi and that was that TV wise oh no always sending in Philadelphia yeah I can't imagine that

pays very much well at this point he doesn't need to make any money yeah he's got all that Batman Returns money right the Matilda money that keeps coming in and he redirected that's a smoochie from over yeah that the Smoochie, Throw Mom Over the Train. You did? Yeah. Death to Smoochie was good. Yeah. It's got kind of a. Is that Edward Norton?

Yeah. Yeah. And Robin Williams? Yeah, I think so. I don't think I ever thought. I don't think I ever thought. What's your favorite Robin Williams film? Oh. Put you on the spot, I know. What's your favorite Robin Williams film?

Oh. Putting you on the spot, I know. If I go off like childhood, it's probably Hook. Yeah, Hook's a good one. Yeah. Is he in that? Yeah, he's, have you seen it? Are you serious? But do you remember that terrible movie he was in called Jack?

We talked about that. We talked about Jack last week. Was it last week? Yeah. It's so bad. Maybe off air though. We were talking, I had it backwards. Oh no, I was talking about Kimberly Akimbo, the musical that's coming to town or they're

putting a production on and it's about a girl who has a child with an old person body or something. Which is Jack, right? Yeah, yeah. And it's like in the film, he gets to go to school with kids? He is a kid. I know, but he gets to be with other kids

even though he's an adult body. Kids too. I wouldn't want some adult looking guy around my kids, I'll tell you that. Jack should be homeschooled, all right? And then since he, I guess he dies faster than a regular person. He dies so fast.

He dies about two hours in, I think. Oh, he would be so popular in high school though, getting everybody liquor and cigarettes. Dying, dying. He didn't get that far. Did Jack die in the end? I feel like he must have died. I think he does. Yeah, but.

Sorry, spoiler. Sorry if you haven't seen Jack. What, yeah, I feel like as a kid, there were Robin Williams, is Robin Williams in Mrs. Delphi? Yeah. Are you, is that a serious question? And who, he's not in Good Morning Vietnam, is he?

Nope. I'm not falling for this again. But there was that movie Toys, and I was like, oh, this is gonna be great. It's my two favorite things as a kid. Toys and Robin Williams. And I never saw it, cause I don't know what it was about, like as a kid, trusting like a movie reviewer is like,

well, but the reviewers say toys isn't very good. Yeah. Yeah. When was the first, that's a very good question. Like when were you first conscious of movie reviews going into, because you have to read it out of the paper at one point. Yeah. There was only like two, you know,

Siskel and Ebert and then the guy with the crazy mustache was his name. Gene Child, there was Leonard Malton as well. Leonard Malton, that's right. Oh, Siskel and Ebert. So that's, I think that's when, when they were on TV. Yeah, they had the thumbs. Yeah.

They were thumbing each other. And they loved each other, but boy did they clash when they were on the air. I don't think they loved each other. No? You think they hated each other? Yeah. I think that was...

It's now well-documented. I feel like there's been a documentary about them or something about how they... The premise for the show was that they are from rival newspapers and they don't like each other. And then there's all that footage of them, like the stuff cut out of the show of like... Them being like mean to each other? Yeah. And Siskel is like making fat jokes left and right about Ebert. Yeah, well, Ebert could have made bald jokes. He could have shot him right back across.

Yeah, there was a movie that they stood so far apart on, I think it was Under Siege, and Ebert was like, this is great. This is so great. And he's going to be star of this, Steven Seagal. But yeah, you had to like, when was the first time I read a review of something? Maybe Edward Sears-Hairhands. I confirmed my choice, that it was magical.

I enjoyed it. Do you read a Rotten Tomato before you watch a movie? Not really. No? Not really. Did you just go what, by vibe from title? What you've heard from people on the street? It's kind of like I already know what I want to watch.

Yeah, me too. You know? Like, I only watch like a certain caliber movie. Yeah. Or the worst movie, like the worst horror movie. Like I really want to see the new final destination. Oh, I'm excited about the new final destination. Yeah. Hell yeah.

When we made the podcast, Let's Make a Horror, we interviewed the directors of the new Final Destination movie. And they've directed Ryan Beale before, so that's how we got them. And they told us like, when you direct a movie, like the way it works,

it's kind of, you kind of audition and you like, they meet a bunch of directors and they want you to kind of prove yourself. And this was during the pandemic and it was, so it was all on zoom and they did a thing, the two directors, they had like rigged a thing in their zoom that there was gonna be some kind of Rube Goldberg death on their Zoom screen.

That's so good. So they did something where the ceiling fan falls off and cuts one of their heads off. The ad campaign for this new one, there's a lot of semi-trucks with logs that have final destination written on the end of them. I got to see in the theater before anybody spoils the gags. Yeah. Yeah. I heard it's good though.

Yeah. To me, all the final destinations are good. How many were there or are there? I think this is six, isn't it? This would be six, yeah. And one of them had a comedian I knew. Sam Easton. He was in it and his death was so funny because

they he's stuck in a drive-thru he's boxed in and a semi trailers got out of control was driving down towards and you're like okay was gonna get smashed by the semi trailer the same trailer hits a tree and the engine flies out and has that fan and it chops his head up backwards. Oh, God. They're brilliant, these guys. They're brilliant. Is that the third one? That's the third one.

Yeah. Yeah. I don't think I've seen that one. Shot here in Vancouver. Oh, same with, I just, I watched the fifth one. It's on the bridge that goes to North Van. Oh, yeah. So every time I'm on the bridge, I'm like, this is the bridge.

This is it, man. I think they might all be shot here. Which is the one with the tanning bed? I think that's the same one. Well, that's shot here. That one's hilarious too, because a board falls on the two pods and then they somehow the thing turns up and they fry to death.

That's, look, these guys are brilliant. Hats off to them. That Ruby Gold River machine thing sounds awesome. You build one, right? You built a Ruby Goldberg machine. Yeah, we had to, for my daughter's science experiment. It's physics, man. Yeah, this is making physics fun. We were talking a couple of weeks ago,

what movies did you have to watch in school? Oh yeah, someone brought, well, we talked about it, and then there was like a topic on the Facebook group. I feel like this is a rich vein. Okay, so we always watched October Sky. Oh, what's his name? Jake Gyllenhaal. Yes, Jake Gyllenhaal where they build a rocket.

Oh yeah. Yes, we always watched Santa Claus. I don't know why they love to show that one to us. And, but one time, so I used to be obsessed with Joaquin Phoenix and I was obsessed with the movie Quills, which is about the Marquis de Sade. And I convinced my social studies teacher to play that movie in class. and there's so much nudity. Of course. And I'm just like still in shock that she was like that dumb to let me do that. I do like the idea of a PG movie about the Marquita song. Yeah, because we were just talking about there were certain shows and movies that you got

shown that was like typical. I've never heard October's Sky. Was that physics? I guess it's because it was like kind of sciency. Yeah, physics. Yeah, physics probably. Yeah. Was that in the days of having a TV strapped to a cart or is this? Yeah, that's a cart for sure. Yeah, it's a cart for sure. Yeah, it's a cart strapper.

We did, I took a film class in like grade 11 or 12 and the teacher would pick a director and like you would watch a movie by the director in class and then you'd have to watch a movie by yourself at another movie and then kind of like compare and contrast. Remember the director he chose, we did it twice. Once it was Scorsese. And then once it was Joel Schumacher.

Really? Yeah. What Joel Schumacher movie did we watch? Flatliners or something? Yeah, he did. He's the Batman and Robin. Yeah. Returns or whatever. Did he make Pirates of the Caribbean? No, that's Gore Verbinski. What? No.

No. What? Don't take, don't try to fight anyone Pirates of the Caribbean. Yeah, once I start saying Gore Verbinski, there's no stopping me. Yeah, I think I ended up watching Falling Down as my other Joel Schumacher. Yeah, Michael Douglas. Have you seen Falling Down?

I don't think so. It's kind of the OG men's rights activist kind of film, the lone gunman kind of. Michael Douglas is a guy who's just, he's a middle-aged guy who's just been pushed too far. Yeah, and he's just gotten nuts. Why do I go to a restaurant and they stop serving breakfast at 10.30?

Yeah, and he goes in with a machine gun and he wants a burger that looks like the burger on the menu. But you could see a certain type of teenager really going like, hell yeah. But yeah, I think a different guy would be like, huh, why do they stop serving the breakfast at this time? Maybe I should become a standup comedian. This just sounds like Joker.

Yeah, this is kind of Joker. This is kind of Joker. DNA there of Joker. I wonder if it's good, I mean it was good when I was a teenager, but it was only good because I was a stupid teenager. I don't know if it's good. I mean, it was good when I was a teenager, but it was only good because I was a stupid teenager. I don't know if it like- Falling down? Yeah.

Like I don't know if that would- I don't know if it ages while having like, I am a middle-aged white guy and things aren't going the way I like. Yeah, I feel there's probably some racist stuff in there too that, you know, slipped through the cracks like early 90s stuff would Did you see the Joker sequel

Trying to find somebody who has no I haven't seen it though I do love Lady Gaga, and I think she's a great actress. Yeah, I like her too and I That's one of those things like if I if movie reviews didn't exist. I would go see that movie. Yeah Yeah, of course is the joke hadn't heard people say it was bad I heard people say the Joker one was good and I disagreed but I still saw it yeah the I just trying to think like every movie that I like try to like I want to stream I always check the reviews first I don't why I do that Why shouldn't I just go by what the I don't even watch trailers? No, I'm like This seems like a movie. I'd like I'll see it. Yeah. Yeah, just

Like do you go see any you saw a friendship in the theater? Yeah, I did. Do you see any trailers of movies that you're like maybe well I I saw it at the screening right before you saw it. Oh, really? So I think we saw the same trailers. Was Wes Anderson one of them? Yeah, the Wes Anderson movie. Yeah.

And then anything by what, the guy that you said before? Gorbunov? Nothing by Gorbunovski. But Dwayne The Rock Johnson is a wrestler. Yes! Or a UFC guy. Bullhead of hair. I think that's gonna be good.

I think it's gonna be good too. I think, I saw that and I was like, Graham is gonna, I wouldn't wanna be Graham. He's gonna see his jeans. I wouldn't wanna be Graham's jeans right now. And then what was the other trailer? No, that was a picture you sent me of the John Van Damme. Was it Joe Joaquin Phoenix, other Joaquin Phoenix one

where there's like a bunch of pictures from phones? There's a new Joaquin Phoenix, other Joaquin Phoenix one where there's like a bunch of pictures from phones. There's a new Joaquin Phoenix. Is it him and Pedro Pascal? Oh yeah, what was that called? Joaquin. You gotta keep on top of this Randy. I know, I fell off. What's the best Joaquin Phoenix film in your-

It's called Eddington, it's coming out. Eddington. Eddington. The best Joaquin Phoenix film. Especially, no, like when you were obsessed. Oh, when I, Quills! But I used to watch To Die For and I was like such a little kid that I didn't understand what was truly happening with Joaquin and Nicole Kidman. I was like, what's going on? Why is it bad? What is going on? I haven't seen it. Oh, it's like she's a reporter and she goes, she wants to talk to these students in high school

and then she starts a weird relationship with them where she tries to get them to kill her husband and boundaries get crossed. Well, that's a pretty good synopsis. Well, yeah. I mean, I was fine with it. You can kill my husband, but don't cross any boundaries. We gotta keep this appropriate. Yeah, tonight was great. Nicole Kidman's great. She is reliably great. Decade in, decade out. I just watch baby girl. Woo-wee! That's a steamy, steamy Nicole Kidman. She brings it to the... Again, hot just thinking about it. Oh my God. Do you see it?

Yeah, I saw it. Did it make you want to drink a giant glass of milk? Because that's what it is today. I grew up drinking milk, so I always want to drink a glass of milk. Yeah. I was a milk household, you were a milk household. You're a milk household now. To this day. Do you ever drink like just a giant glass of milk, cold glass of milk?

Ooh, nothing like it. Yeah, I will, no, I'll just have a coffee. Yeah. Coffee is like, milk was my go-to for cookies. Yeah. I remember reading Harriet the Spy and her nanny gives her a big thing, a cake and milk at the end of the school day.

I thought that sounded so good. It does sound good. But now if I have like an afternoon Snicky snack, I'll just have a coffee with milk. With milk, sure. Or cafe au lait. Yeah, I'll just have a coffee. With milk. With milk, sure. Caffeole. Yeah, you're gonna get a latte right after this, is that right?

That's right. I got one right before. Shit, you guys. Oh, yeah. You guys love milk. Do you drink latte? No, I don't. I just drink coffee.

I don't, it's wasted on me. All this kind of stuff, the steam and the boil and the pour over and the, I just, it's too much milk, it's wasted on me. All this kind of stuff, the steam and the boil and the pour over and the, I just, it's too much milk, it's too much milk. There you go, I said it's too much milk in a latte. But do you ever have just a glass of milk on its own? Do you keep milk in the house? No. No.

Oat milk, I'm an oat milk guy. I know you would never have a glass of that. No, God no, it's for like, on cereal. It's an accessory. Yeah, it's in coffee, yeah. You still, you got milk in the household? No, I'm kind of like healthy. I just have almond milk for smoothies.

You're healthy. Like. No, I mean like. You're healthy, this is what? Like I try to like, also I know the milk industry's evil, so I try to not partake anymore. Right, except that latte you're gonna. It's gonna be oat.

Oh, yeah, let's do that. We were, you and I were on the road together in Yukon, and we were at the place the show was happening, and you were trying to find something on the menu that was healthy and it was, I laughed and laughed and laughed. What was? It was probably like fried pickles was the most. Yeah, french fries.

Yeah, it just ended up eating french fries. I almost got the french, the fried pickles at Popeyes the other day. What stopped you? I was, it was sort of a communication breakdown between me and the, I go in there sometimes get their biscuits. Ooh, I like those biscuits.

And then I was like, oh, what's the deal with those fried pickles? And they were like, you can get, it comes in a pack of like 12 and I'm like, I want one. Yeah, can you just give me one? They should give samples like at an ice cream place. Yeah.

Just give me one pickle They should give samples like at an ice cream place. Yeah. Just give me one pickle. They also have pickle. They have like five pickle things on the menu. One of them is pickle lemonade. Ew, gross. Is that appeal? Are you a sour? Pickle lemonade?

That could be good actually. You ever just drink from a pickle jar? Like, come on. Yeah, you ever do that? Yeah. Nice. It's, yeah, it's an experience. Have you ever had a pickle jar, like. Yeah, you ever do that? Yeah. Yeah. It's good. It's, yeah, it's an experience. Have you ever had a pickle back?

This is a pickle and pho? I think it's a shot of whiskey and then a shot of pickle juice. Woof. Yeah, it's good. Yeah, I could see you doing that. Why not? Where do you get a thing like that? At a bar?

Yeah, you just go, give me a pickle back girl. And the bartender's like, okay. She came in here last week and drank a giant glass of milk. Yeah, sure. We've got all the various like do they have pickles at bars? Sometimes they do. They have a jar of pickles that, you know, for, what are the ones, not Bloody Mary's, but... Oh, Caesar's? Caesar's, yeah. Okay.

I guess maybe if you go to Tapa's bar, they'll have like various primes that they're keeping olives and peppers in. Remember when Tapa's like burst on the scene and everyone is like, this is the new way we're enjoying food. It sort of has become the way that every restaurant, like if I ever go to a fancy restaurant, they're doing it tapas style. They're like, it's not Spanish food, but it's like, here's a small plate of crab. Just a tiny plate of crab. Have you been to any,

we've got a fancy new restaurant just in the neighborhood. I realize it's been a long time since I've been to a fancy place. I've been to medium places that are like- I don't think fancy fancy exists here. No. Because the fanciest restaurants I've ever been to in Vancouver, there's people in sweatpants. Wow, that's our city, Sporty.

That's what I'm saying. Yeah, I feel like I had a drink at the bar in the Vancouver club and you're not allowed to wear jeans, you're not allowed to wear sweats. You have to be in proper attire to go and hang out there. Where's that? It's down on Hastings Street? Right across from Canada Place? Yeah. It's like an old,

you've seen in Mr. Big in Sex and the City, like a place he'd hang out at. Yeah. That's the place. The place he hangs out at or the place he hides Carrie? When's the new season coming out? I don't know, but I can't wait. I can't wait.

I started watching it as a joke that I got reinvested in the show. Oh, did you really? Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I watched it all. Are you in on the new version? I watched the first season, but the whole like Miranda storyline really just bothers. Yeah, no I mean the fact that they've they've just conveniently cut out Samantha completely from the show they could have had her appear in more scenes over the

phone. She could have been an element of the show she just didn't like working with Sarah Jessica, I guess. Yeah, I think they were fake friends on TV. Yeah, yeah. So episode one will have come out by the time this episode's up. Shut up, really, it's back? Yeah.

Oh yeah. There was a whole arc where she broke her hip and then she had to get better in physio so she could wear high heels again. What? Yeah, you gotta watch it. Oh my God. Who broke her hip? Carrie. What? Yeah, you gotta watch it. Oh my God. Who broke her hip?

Carrie. Oh. Yeah. And you get to see that stand up comedian really develop. See, that's the crazy part is the stand up is so bad. Disagree, I laughed, I laughed. I modeled my new hour after her. There's, she broke her hip?

Yeah. And you know that when you like get a hip replacement, it's, they want you walking right away. Yeah. So they'll probably put you in those Minolo Blonics. Yeah, if you have hip surgery, I only realized this the other day, that if you're cremated, that's what, it'll still be good, you could use that in another patient.

You just rinse it off and put it in somebody else. Irma, my dog who had her CCL surgery, she's got a thing in her leg now, of whatever. Can't take her through to the airplane. Can't take her through security. Ha ha ha. Dave, what's going on with you? Oh my God.

Heck of a lot. Oh yeah? Well, we already talked about how we saw, we both saw the same movie. Did you see it, friendship? I was supposed to go last night, but it was sold out. Oh really? Wow. Only front row left.

I ain't sitting there. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So you're gonna go just up the street? No, we were gonna go to Scotia, but. It's apparently like this past weekend, it was on, in the States, it was on 60 screens in the whole country and it still came in seventh.

Really? Like it made, like if you compare what each theater made, it made twice as much as any other movie. But you could tell me what the number one movie in the country is, I'd have absolutely no idea. What do we think it is? Thunderbolts? Thunderbills. Might be Thunderbolts.

Oh, I bet it's Final Destination. Oh, sure, yeah. Talk about dominating the box office, holy cow. Why did they stop making them for a while? I have no idea. I think it's the fifth one was bad. Hard to disagree, but. The weekend that we just had, final destination,

then Thunderbolts, then Sinners, a Minecraft movie, The Accountant 2, hurry up tomorrow. The Accountant 2, really? Yeah. Oh, wow. And Friendship at up tomorrow. The Accountant 2, really? Yeah. Oh, wow. And Friendship at seven, but only on 60 screens, where all the others are above 2,000. The Accountant I watched with my family,

and my brother's an accountant, and we all raced to make the same joke as soon as the movie was done. Is that what it's like, is it being an accountant? Is it good? No. I've heard that it's like, for that kind of thing, it's pretty good. It's okay. It's... You gotta really like Ben Affleck, because he's in every frame of that movie. I think we'd like Ben Affleck.

Yeah. Yeah, sure. I just wish even Jennifer could work it out, you know? Which Jennifer? Whichever one. Either will do. He looks so happy now. Every time he gets away from her, he's like smiling. Yeah. Then when he's with her, he's like, hmm.

Why do you think they got back together? What did they think was like, what had changed in those years? I think they were really attracted to each other. They're both attracted. That's possible. Maybe he was just like, you know when you're just one of those people who needs to blow up your life once in a while? I feel like that's very Ben Affleck.

I think that's maybe Jennifer Lopez too. Yeah. And like there was a whole series of photos of him. What does he bring in? Like Dunkin' Donuts into some studio? Oh yeah. Just miserable and every single one of them. Yeah. into some studio, just miserable in every single one of them. Oh, the most, like, paparazzi,

like, his faces are so friendly to the paparazzi. He's that one where he's smoking and he's just like needs a, it's a meme. Every, his whole life is a meme. He's staring off at the ocean, he's got a giant tattoo on his back. Oh yeah! Like, is that a Harry Potter tattoo? No, it's a dragon.

Actually, that could be a dragon. Is there not a dragon in Harry Potter? Yes. Yeah, and then Jennifer Lopez. Trying to find somebody better than Jennifer Lopez. I mean, she's, who is she? Was she dating Diddy for a while? Yes. Is that right?

But they I've been TikTok keeps being like, here's what's happened on the Diddy trial. And I'm like, I guess I'll listen. But some guy was like, was like, Diddy never did nothing to JLo because she had people on the block. That's where she's from. That's where she's from. She knew people on the six. What is going on in the Diddy trial? I haven't been keeping track.

So I guess- Trigger warning. Trigger warning. Absolutely trigger warning. Yep. This is the craziest thing is that, so I guess before Prince died, he recorded, he made a recording about Diddy and said to release it. Like posthumously?

Yeah. And it's, it details like so many things that Diddy did about how he tried to confront- How he wore a raspberry beret, he drove a little red Corvette. But he like- He did the bat dance. He confronted Diddy multiple times to be like, hey man, you're really creepy. And Diddy would just be like, write a song about it. Yeah. No, we can get rid of people like you, like that type of thing.

Yeah. And he did. But Prince, he would have friends on the block. I wouldn't be afraid of him. Yeah. And he did. But Prince, he would have friends on the block. I wouldn't be afraid of him. Yeah, exactly. Wouldn't Prince have even more people? Absolutely. Generations of people on the block.

The new power generation. Is that was his backup band? Yeah. Okay. I'm not that into, I like, I know the hits, but I don't know the history. Have you seen Purple Rain? I've seen Purple Rain.

It's very good. Have you seen Under the Cherry Moon? No, is that him again? Oh, nice, okay. Well, I got something to watch now. Well, I'm gonna read the reviews first. Yeah, I haven't seen it. Apparently, yeah, I read a review, not good.

So yeah, I went to see this movie. It's a Tim Robinson movie, but it's an A24 movie. And in your screening, did it take the audience a while to figure out what kind of movie it was? Yes. There was a lot of like... At first there was a lot of tittering. A lot of laughing at everything Tim Robinson does.

And then I think we settled into Yeah. The parts that are A24 not as fun. The parts that are Tim Robinson sketch style. Super funny. Super funny. It's yeah, it's well worth going to, but you're exactly right. The audience was just like, so this is going to be so funny. They're hyped like it's,

okay, I've seen the first two Naked Guns now, the third one. I remember being in the theater when Liar Liar came out and everybody in the audience was so keyed up for the comedy that like anything funny, people lost their mind. It was like very cathartic to be in a theater of that.

Is Robin Williams in that? Yeah. Yeah. He plays the second liar. It's him and Jim Carrey. Yeah, have you ever been in a theater that's like a movie that's like a straight up comedy? Because I don't watch a lot of them in the theater, but I used to. Not I've had that situation recently where a movie was so bad that the audience didn't know how to react. It was like Craven. Have you heard of Craven?

The Hunter? The Hunter? The Hunter? And this movie is, I think it's Marvel. Yeah. But it's like that Morbius style Marvel. Yeah, it's connected to Spider-Man's. Yeah.

Madame Web. Yeah, it's connected to Spider-Man's... Yeah. Madam Web. And I don't think they were trying to be funny, but it was so bad, serious that I was laughing so hard at certain parts. And then people in the theater were also like,

we gotta laugh too. Yeah. Can I hear that voice again? What? What did the people in the theater say? We gotta laugh too. Hahahaha Excellent character. Yeah, I saw the movie.

Oh crap, what was it called? The M. Night Shyamalan. Trap? Trap. Oh yeah. And it's funny. It's like, and he's not a guy who understands that some of his movies are very funny. There's nothing winking about them. And the whole movie served to be a launchpad

for his daughter's career. And how we all know her name. What was it again? A single name. Yeah. Let's say Desiree. But let's, I'm gonna look up this movie Trap because I, she.

Have you seen it? Yeah, I've seen it. Is it not the funniest? It is so cringe. It's just him. Salika Knight as Lady Raven. Lady Raven. Yeah, she's a good singer, but terrible actress.

Yeah. Yeah. Okay. That's fine. Yeah, it was in the theater. There were teens behind me that started making jokes and I was like, this is the best. I'm sitting right in front of who I should be sitting with

in the theater. Do you remember in the movie Taken? Yeah. He's saving his daughter and his daughter at the very beginning of the movie, Liam Neeson's ex-wife is now married to the super rich guy and the daughter lives there and he like brings a, Liam Neeson's ex-wife is now married to the super rich guy. Yeah. And the daughter lives there and he like brings a, gets her like a karaoke machine for her

birthday. And meanwhile, the super rich guy is like, you're gonna meet, you're gonna, I'll get you tickets to whatever this Lady Gaga, Lady Raven concert or whatever. Or I guess a trip to Paris is what she gets. Yeah. And then at the end, Liam Neeson is like, I'm gonna let you meet Lady Raven, cause I'm her security. That's right.

Is that the first one or the second one? I'm the first one. Cause I know the first one, he rescues her, and the second one. His wife. His wife, and then the third one, she rescues him. The wife does? No, the kid.

Maggie Grace? Maggie Grace, she saves the day. I haven't seen any of these. She's Maggie grace Maggie grace. She saves the day She gets in any of these is a set of skills She does and here's how that he helps her locate where he is trapped Mm-hmm. He said okay drop a grenade and then I'll like echo location it in my mind Just keep dropping grenades and this is in like a populated Like some you know, like this is a city she's doing this in, to save her dad.

How many thousands of people must die so that Taken can live? That's his name in the movie, Jeff Taken. Oh, I didn't know that. It's true. It's true. The first one's quite good. Yeah, the first one's great. It kind of reinvigorated his career and now he's going to be the new naked gun.

Yeah, that's right. We've inherited a new... Did you watch the Naked Guns? I did. Or at least the first? I used to watch all the Leslie Nielsen movies. You think he was in? Did you like them? Or were you just like, this is just for kids? I think when I was a kid I liked them a lot, though I watched one like a few years ago and I was kind of like, okay.

Because he was a serious actor and they would put him in the like, that's why it's funny that they have Liam Neeson because he's a serious actor and they're putting him in a comedy role. And then he was in so many comedies that they started just not writing him serious parts in these comedy things. They would just have him be Dracula dead and loving it or Mr. Magoo. Or a man with brooms.

Or was he in? No. I was gonna say Dudley Do-Right, but that was Brendan Fraser. Yeah, man, he had a drop off. But it's like, he was doing nothing but blockbusters. Why would he do Dudley Do-Right? Was that, what was the sense that people wanted that movie

from the Bullwinkle era? Yeah, I don't know. Well, they were remaking every like 60s thing in the 90s. Yeah, that's right. Brady Bunch was hilarious. Down Periscope. Sergeant Bilko. Sergeant Bilko was Down Periscope. Sergeant Bilko. Sergeant Bilko was Down Periscope a movie?

Yeah. TV show? It was, oh God, what's his name? I just remember Harlan Williams in it. Well yeah, Kelsey Grammer's in it. But was there a TV show it was based on? It was called McHale's Navy, I think. And they had changed it to Down Periscope.

Or maybe they made a movie called McKayle. And did they make a Car 54 Where Are You movie? I think they did. Yeah, that makes sense. All the Nick at Night properties. Adam's family. My mother in the car. Yeah, Bewitched.

I like the Bewitched movie. Nicole Kidman again. Time after time, Nicole Kidman. She comes through. Yeah. I can't think of a. Nicole Kidman again. Time after time, Nicole Kidman. She comes through. Yeah. I can't think of a bad Nicole Kidman movie. There, I said it. That's even her like early days in Australia.

Great movies. She's a... And I watched that show. It's gonna be a very good show. With her and Leigh of Schreiber. Oh yeah. What was that called? Perfect Couple, the Perfect Couple.

Yeah. And she's great in it. And then I watched, like I read reviews afterwards and everyone was talking about her. She has a different wig in every episode. I didn't notice the wigs at all. I got terrible wig dark. She has a wig in everything she does.

Is that right? Yeah. If you watch anything, I think after 2010s, it's a wig. Yeah. I like that for even when he's had hair, Samuel L. Jackson had a wig guy. He wears a different wig in every movie. I guess it makes sense that she would be wearing a wig because in her early movies, she's so curly haired

and hasn't been in 20 years. Yeah, she's great. Look, we're Nicole Kidman forward podcast. Yeah. Who's had a career sustaining as well? Tom Cruise? Yeah, Tom Cruise. But what are they?

What is their connection? Oh my God. Yeah, but she can wear heels? No. Was that a thing? Because she would dwarf him? She went on a talk show and they were like, how's it different now that you're divorced?

She said that. What a scorch. Wow. Oh boy, that's great. Speaking of, I'm very excited for Mission Impossible 8. Yeah, sure. He's on Hanging From a Plane this time. Sure, he's hung from a plane 8. Yeah, sure, he's on hanging from a plane this time. Sure, he's hung from a plane before.

Yeah, he's going in an underwater thing, it's filling up slowly with water. He's been underwater before. Yeah, he's, what else did they do in the trailer? Surely he drives off a cliff in something. I mean, that was, I think the Olympic closing ceremonies. Have you seen any of the Mission Impossible? I've seen the first one like probably 20 times because it was my brother's movie he watched when he was a teen but the other ones I

haven't really seen much. So you would sit there with your brother watching Mission Impossible and then he would sit with you while you watched Quills. No, he did not watch Quills. It's my movie. Who's the Marky Dessod in it? Is it? It's Jeffrey. Rush. Yes, Jeffrey.

Jeffrey Rush. He had a run. Holy cow. Another Rush, one of our great Australian actors. That's true. Who's the top? Who else is it? Your brothers, your Hemsworths?

The Hemsworths, sure. Q Jack, man. Russell Crowe. My God, they're everywhere. Yeah, they're everywhere. Louie. Keep sending them over, I say. Yeah.

Yeah. Fresh new Ozzy is what we need. Paul Hogan. Oh, yeah. Yeah, so that's what's going on with me. I saw a movie. I had popcorn in it. Yeah. I got a Coke and some M&Ms. Oh yeah. Yeah, so that's what's going on with me. I saw a movie. I had popcorn in it. Yeah.

I got a Coke and some M&Ms. Do you like the popcorn over at park? I don't have opinions on popcorn. I like all popcorn. I've never had bad popcorn. Oh, I find some places have stale or popcorn than other places. Yeah.

I like it when they make it fresh, but also I can't really tell. I like it when they make it fresh, but also I can't really tell. I like seeing them like, you know, the way they take that scooping device and they really kind of get in there. But then I see like eight bags sitting there pre-packed. I'm like, I'm getting one of those, aren't I? Yeah, exactly.

Was the lineup long? Is there the lineup when I went was so long. Well, I pre-buy my tickets and I show up two minutes before the movie. And then they have popcorn waiting for you? Oh, that's what I mean. Oh, the lineup for the concessions? No, not for the matinee. Mile long and it's, you know what, they don't, they won't turn the movie on if the line is still happening. That's what the, that's the nice thing about a small theater is Oh yeah. Yeah, but like a regular theater, they don't care. They just start, really start. But like, well, let's start the previews.

That's true. There's 15 minutes of them. Some of us have places to be. Yeah, there's a, yeah, some great car commercials in there. There's a commercial. Oh, there was an ad. So they, like, for people who don't know Canada, And ad, so they, like, for people who don't know Canada, there's a big nationalist, not nationalist that has a new term, patriotic movement here in the country because the Cheeto in chief has threatened our sovereignty and wanting to make us the 51st state. And so there's a big like pride movement in Canadian pride in all of our advertising now.

And before the movie, there was an ad for, you recognize the voice and you're like, oh, it's Michael J. Fox and he's reading this speech and it's for real Canadian superstore. I didn't know that was Michael J. Fox, that's funny. And then there's an ad for Molson Canadian and it's got Rush music playing in the background and it's super patriotic.

And then there was a third ad that was like a combination of both of them. It was Michael J. Fox again for real Canadian superstore, but with a Rush song behind it. Oh, nice. The, isn't Molson not, is that not Canadian? with a rush song behind it. Oh, nice. Isn't most of not that not not Canadian. I don't know. Is it so like the whole by Canadian movement is very confusing because.

Who knows what's what who knows what is made where and there's Canadian Canadian workers are making things for American companies and I don't know. Oh, have you given up anything? I've given up cornflakes. That was my big contribution to the car. Now you have to have Canadian cornflakes. Yeah, made from canola flakes.

I actually don't really think about it. Oh, trader, trader. Yeah, it's a weird one. Yeah, it is a weird one. Yeah, that's the one that I've liked because I still have Netflix and all that stuff. I know. People don't talk about that.

Netflix.ca. Yeah, that's right. Yeah, I shop at Amazon.ca. Yeah, so it's weird. Like people don't talk about that. Yeah, but I have Netflix.ca. Yeah, that's right. Yeah, I shop at Amazon.ca. Yeah, so it's fine. Yeah, anyways, as you said, elbows up. Welcome back to the country, Michael J. Fox. What's going on with you? I am, as of this taping, I'm a couple days away

from doing a 24 hour show, so that means. So thanks everyone who came out and tuned in. And turned off. Yeah, turned off. What is that, tune in, turn off? Drop out. Drop out, yeah. That means I bought myself a new pair of shoes.

So you got 24 hours. How many steps do you get in in those 24 hours? Probably like 13. Because it's a lot of standing and then maybe the trips to the bathroom. You should wear a pedometer. You know what? I will.

I'll turn that on. Like you can do that on your phone, right? I guess. People wear the Apple watch or Fitbit. Yeah. But I- I use the Spank Bank. I only use Canadian Spank Banks.

I made the switch. But the thing about me, oh, I hate buying shoes. Oh, I hate it so much. You like to thrift them. I like to thrift them. I like, look, I got wide, wide feet, wide feet for days. And it's just like, either they don't have them in the width, or they only have it in the ugly iteration of the shoe. Yeah. But for standing for 24 hours last year, you got hokas.

I got hokas. And those were, I mean, the I feel like part of the appeal is that they're ugly. Like there was an ugly shoe movement. Wow, you hate hokas like I do? I don't hate them, but like- I hate them as well. I only like the black ones. I think the black ones look good.

Graham had black hokas last year. Yeah. But the ones that are all those like light pink, then bright green, then another pink, like when they're all these weird colors. Yeah. I think they look very silly. And they look like something that a policeman would wear is they got to be on their feet a lot.

So I feel like Hocus and Hocus and Cops. I think it- Hey Cab, all Hocus there. I think if you go to a hospital, it'll be doctors and nurses and hoaxes. Do you think that they have to wear a particular kind of shoe as a police officer? I guess so.

I think, yeah, they have to wear. Don't they wear boots? I don't know. I've never, nobody's ever let me watch them. I feel like when someone is standing up for the police, they're not called a hoaxalicker. Yeah. is standing up for the police. They're not called a hokalicker.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So yeah, they're good for anybody who's got to stay on their feet for a long, long time. Police, I think they do like, they'll do a boot, the steel-toed boot.

Everything police is like- Reinforced. If you ever like look in their cop cars and you see their laptops that look like they're bulletproof? I also love watching cops get into a car because they're wearing so much vest stuff. Like they have to kind of like crunch their way in there. Their shoulder pads go up to their ears when they sit down. And there was a video of a drunk girl getting in the back of a cop car because she thought it would be funny.

And they were like, well, we're gonna arrest you. Yeah, sure. Yeah, like that was fun. What the hell you think you're doing? We'll just take you there. You're already in the back. We don't have to do anything. But yeah, so Hoka's last year, this year, Hoka's.

Okay. Went back to the devil I know. Do you go to like a ergonomic shoe store? I went to the ergonomic shoe store and this is the thing, as discussed, I can't wear a cool shoe anymore. Those days are behind me. So now do I just go all the way,

do I go all in and get like a dad style hiking boot that's super good for your body? Or like I feel like I'm not there yet. Well, you know you could do and Carrie Bradshaw and I agree on this Phone multiple pairs of shoes. Yeah. Yeah, I have other shoes with this. This is my everyday shoe Oh just walking around. Have you tried New Balance? Yeah, not wide enough. Oh, they go wide

just walking around. Have you tried New Balance? Yeah, not wide enough. Oh, they go wide. They go wide, but not enough. Not enough, not for this guy. And so I went into the ergonomic shoe place with the current ones and I was like, this please, another of this.

And then they were like, we don't have it in black. I was like, no sale. Oh, no. Yeah, no sale. And walked right out of that store, walked into another store, hook-uh. And walked right out of that store, walked into another store. Hookahs, please. Nothing.

We don't have it. We don't have that size. Third Porge, just right. Tried them on at the store. Easiest sale this woman's ever made in her entire life. Guy comes in, he knows what he wants, puts them on once. Away he goes. That's, uh, did you go to that place that does hookahs and hookahs? I stayed there for a few hours and tried some different tobacco. Yeah.

This is like an apple scented. Um, but yeah, I'm a hookah man for at least another year and they wore out, man. I wore those hookahs out. Oh, but like this time next year, are you doing another 24 hour show? We'll see. We'll see where my feet are at. It's like birth though.

You'll forget the pain and then you'll do it again. Is it? Yeah, I guess there is that, right? Is it painful to do the show? Like, is it a, like you're mentally flagging. Yeah. But are, and you're like, my back hurts, but is it, how punishing?

The throat is the first thing to go. You kind of lose your voice. Hey. Hey. Hey. What do you do for that? Do you, do you have? Lausage.

Oh, okay. Yeah, do lausage. Throat coat, do you do throat coat, too? Oh, I would do, I think maybe I will thisge. Oh, okay. Yeah, do lozenge. Throat coat, do you do throat coat, too? Oh, I would do, I think maybe I will this year. I was told by Alana Brittany Pascas, who's a- Speech therapist. Speech therapist.

You gotta eat like regular hauls and stuff, garbage. Bad for your throat. So all honey lozenges is what I'm hitting during the show. Okay, you should get some of those progressive soup lozenges. What? Do you not remember that? No. It was a hot topic a few months ago. About a soup that was a... Progresso came out with soup lozenges.

What are you... Are you talking about on April Fools? They came out with this. This was in Coffin Cold season. I thought you were going to say Coffin Cold magazine. Oh yeah, centerfold. Yeah, the legs. And then I do remember I sang, isn't that soup progress-o? I feel like that would- I'm cooking soup and it's for dinner. Yeah, where's Weird Al when L when we've got this like, we've got new pop stars, we've got fun songs. I would love to hear his take on Pink Party Club.

He did one of those, like when he does the polka medleys. He did one of those in the last year or two. He's great. It had like Olivia Rodrigo. Yeah. Why is there no air to the Jegavuk throw? Who else is doing song parody? Nobody. He's the guy, right?

I mean, there's us. Oh, the one on the island. But they write their own stuff. They write their own, yeah. We're talking rewriting silly lyrics. Used to be every radio show had somebody that could do that. A twisted tune on rock 101. We don't get spooched again.

Maybe it could be you guys. You come out with an album. We are gonna take it, see? Just that easy. It's a topical song, it's new. But yeah, Hokas, Hokas this year, but they don't last, they don't last the way that a classic running shoe lasts. They don't last, they last the 24 hours.

Yeah, oh no, but they don't last, they last like for a year and then that's, that's what they're done. If you're wearing it, if they're your everyday shoe. I am a cop and I do wear them every day. They're not, nothing's gonna last more than a year if you're wearing it every day. You're right, you're right.

Just, I was bummed, you know? Cause they're not cheap. For like an ugly shoe, they're awfully expensive. Yeah, that'd be funny if they're like, well you get the ugly disc cap on them. We know these look like shit. They support your, they're awfully expensive. Yeah, that'd be funny if they're like, well, you get the ugly discount. They support your they're so good for your back and everything. But obviously, you know, no one's gonna pay this price for them. This is what you would pay for an attractive shoe. I wonder, as I get older, am I gonna get wear like a hiking shoe,

a Merrell or something like that? Yeah, a Mephisto. Yeah. What if you got a Salomon? Oh sure, yeah. Those are in. Those are techie, but they're, I don't know if they're comfy.

Yeah, no, I need a comfy. I need like a- They must be comfy every fashionista is wearing them. Fashionistas will wear anything uncomfortable for their art, you see. But I wear the New Balance dad sneakers for the gym and those are very comfy and... or was I going? You don't know, I have no idea. But they look cool. Yeah.

But I'm wondering in my life, how far away am I from doing ski poles when I walk? Oh yeah. Oh yeah, I get scared about that too. You know how like, like most old people die from falling over? They don't. I wouldn't say most do. Well, three of mine did. Okay, there you go. That's a 75%. 75% of old people die from falling over.

But yes, people die from falling over. Is that the full statement? No, like when you're like, the muscles, would you end up with ski poles if you had like really strong leg muscles? I don't know, like my dad is in super duper great shape. But if they go for like a long walk in the hills, he's got the balls going. Well, yeah, I mean, pull them if you got them. Yeah, yeah. Well, by the time I'm an old man, they

will have invented some sort of legs that you can snap on and it does a lot of it is sort of like it's you know you is if you when we were kids if you thought about an old person they would have a cane but now I feel like the ski poles walking is a way of not having a cane and like feeling active and you wear the pants that zip off into shorts. Yeah. And you have a fanny pack.

You have a Tilly hat. Yeah. But that's modern old person. It's, we'll see what the future holds. Maybe hokas, maybe hokocus stay with us for a long time. Graham, are you having like a midlife crisis? I don't think I'm gonna live to 80 something. So let's say three quarters.

No, I just don't wanna wear those poles. This thing, I don't wanna use those poles. Well, no one's gonna make you use the poles, but you'll fall down as three quarters of old people do. Yeah, no, and I can see myself being one of those people who falls and breaks their hip. Yeah, well, it happened to Carrie. That's exactly it. Did she fall?

How did she break her hip? Yeah. Yeah, I think she fell. Doing what? Those little trampolines, jump up and down to exercise. I can't remember, I can't remember how she hurts herself. It would make sense if she was getting a box of shoes down from her closet. Yeah, that would be very in character, very on the nose, I think. Yeah, too on the nose.

Google is suggesting when I search Carrie Bradshaw hip replacement, did she get her hip replacement? I think so. Oh my God, that's, that's much worse. Well, no, it's not much worse. I think a broken hip might be worse. Hip replacement's like you're in and out. Yeah. Hip dysplasia, I think that's what like a French bulldog gets. Shhh, shh, shh, shh.

Hip injury, how did you do it? Well, I mean, but hip replacement, you can just get it from Bradshaw's journey to the starting line involved overcoming congenital hip dysplasia. Yeah. So she- you can just get it from Bradshaw's journey to the starting line involved overcoming congenital hip dysplasia. Yeah. So she-

Oh, wait, no, this is- Who is this, Kerry? This is Kerry Bradshaw, a marathoner from Houston. Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Well, you can't, you can't,

you can't do that. You can't have the person, you can't be named that. Yeah, you can't also be named Carrie Bratchett. And also have hip stuff. Because this is like when they do that thing at the end of a TV show with like characters or any similarity to characters. That's right. This was right from the headlines.

It was purely coincidental. Is it her hip? Or yeah, I think it's, I think it was her hip. Not this Carrie Bradshaw. Who's that Carrie Bradshaw? This is the character Carrie Bradshaw from Sex in the City. Okay. And the episode was called Tragically Hip. That's pretty good. I mean, elbows up. Absolutely. But yeah, she's back on top. Miranda broke up with the stand-up comedian, so no more stand-up comedian on the show. She has a podcast too in the farther seasons.

Miranda? No. Carrie. Carrie and the stand-up comedian. I remember that. But did you notice how Miranda wasn't herself? Yeah. Miranda used to be really caustic,

very much like, this is my opinion. Yeah. Now she's be like really caustic, like very much like, this is my opinion. Yeah. And now she's not like that anymore. What's she like now? I don't have that opinion. She's kind of like, she's like, I hate Steve. Even though Steve's done everything for me. Can we hear the voice of the people in the movie theater again?

I forget what they said, unfortunately. I guess I'm laughing. Yeah. So you got these hokas. Is there anything else you need to do to prepare got i gotta bring my rubber mat with me uh what's that it's uh stand on it yeah like stomp it tom connor's like quiet stuff yeah i sign it people hang it on the wall what's your rubber mat made out of uh that's a good question but it's like not quite memory foam firmer than that sort of like a

like it's a soft yeah and it's like people use it who are like dishwashers and such Yeah, yeah, so I use that and then I went to the physio and I just kind of hydrate That's the big thing hydrate because I know gonna lose my voice within the first and you are a diaper during this thing So you have to leave the stage. I like Cory Booker, is that his name? Guy who did the long. Oh sure. I was gonna say Soliloquy, that's not right. Filibuster. Filibuster.

But he like trained for that. Did he wear a diaper? He must have, because he never, you're not allowed to leave. Oh, I assumed you were allowed to have breaks. No. No? Oh no. And he didn't, it was something like he didn't eat

leading up to it for like four days and he didn't drink liquids for like a day or two before. Do you think you would talk while you were peeing in a diaper? Like I would, like how long can you pause during a filibuster? I know I could, cause I've done it. Like if you're filibustering, like and another thing. One minute. Like are you like, if you are quiet for 30 seconds, can they do a shiver at the end?

You wore a diaper during a speech? No, I was, I was thinking about, I used to pee the bed when I was a kid and I had to wear a diaper. Sure. I did as well, but we never, I think, it was a loss caused diaper wise. They were just like, we're going to ruin this bed. That's going to be disgusting. I didn't think I was a habitual bed wetter, but now that my kids have like when they were done with diapers, they never wet the bed again. I was like, I guess I was a bed wetter.

I guess I like once a year for until I was eight, maybe. And it's like it's, it's panic. Because you're like, I don't know how to do the laundry with just a little kid. So you just either kind of sleep in it or Yeah, try and hide those sheets. I don't know. I can't remember what I did. I'm just a little kid. So you just either kind of sleep in it or Yeah. Try and hide those sheets. I don't know. I can't remember what I did. Oh, wake up mom and dad.

Hey, mom and dad, fresh sheets please. I would just make my bed and be like, uh. There's like flies buzzing around, like a Sims character. That is pretty good. For a kid, that's pretty ingenious. I'll just make the bed. That's fine. Oh, maybe. I'm just looking at the topics in this Carrie Bradshaw article.

After consulting Dr. Cougal, Dr. Cougal, Dr. Cougal, Carrie diagnosed herself with old lady back. Old lady back. Isn't Justin Dipper like breaking all the... Yeah, yeah, yeah. Did Carrie have back pain or hip pain? Carrie was diagnosed with a congenital birth defect of the hip. Justin Timberlake breaking open. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Did Carrie have back pain or hip pain? Carrie was diagnosed with a congenital birth defect of the hip. What does that mean?

Well, it sounds like it was a birth defect. Yeah. It was congenital. Why couldn't Carrie feel herself pee after hip surgery? Well, because she was filibustering. Right from surgery, right to filibustering. Is it really possible to get back into your four inch Manolo Blahnik stilettos three months after surgery?

No, Jimmy Choo's only. Yeah, it's a math makes an appearance. Yeah, in the last episode of the last season that was out. So on the phone. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Cool. That whole thing didn't make sense though.

Carrie was like, she chose money over me or something like, and it's like, no, that's weird. They didn't write it cleverly at all. Yeah. Yeah. But then if you look back, I don't know how clever the whole series was. It's true. Anyway, tune in next week, folks, as I don't know how clever the whole series was. It's true. Anyway, tune in next week, folks.

I think we'll be starting to watch this show and Graham will be having some new takes, some hot takes. Some hot takes. But what do you guys want? You want to move to some overheards? I can dig it. Okay. After 400 episodes, the Maximum Film Universe is kicking off a brand new phase.

We did it. And we always like to start with the guest. Randy, do you have an overheard? I do have an overheard. I didn't have any, so I asked all my friends and my friend Alex sent me this one. So this is a sent in one. Yeah. Sorry, I always wear headphones.

I don't want to hear these cucks. I always forget until the last minute that Randy Duivier is a minute of my rights activist. She did. Randy spends all her time with Cuck. She actually runs like a Cuck care home. And they're like, uh, Randy, can you help me with something? And she's got her headphones on.

Um, as you were. Okay. It says, uh, I overheard an Italian man sandwich shop owner refused to make a parm for another Italian man, his customer, because it's speedo season. Got to feed him that speedo. You know, this is, summertime's right around the, I'm not going to look good in a speedo this year. I just realized. Anyone looks good in a speedo. A speedo is a great thing for anybody because fat guy looks great in it, super shredded guy looks great in it.

Yeah, it is, it's a universal garment. I guess everyone in between doesn't look good in it. It's just big belly or small belly, medium belly, no, no, no. Need not apply. Yeah, oh boy. I would love a Parm sandwich. Yeah, yeah.

Do you find out what... What, Deli? Yeah. Yeah, he really helped us out if you could. Dave, do you have one over? You're still holding your phone. I wonder if you have more. I do actually, after he said Italian men,

I remembered I had written down one from the last time I went to Toronto. Oh, they're full of Italian men over there. Italian man, I remembered I had written down one from the last time I went to Toronto. Hell yeah. Oh, they're full of Italian men over there. Yeah. I was walking down the street and I heard an Italian man come out of a cafe and he said, they can't make the fucking coffee for the life of them. Yeah, man. Well, it's hard.

Is it hard to make a good cup of coffee? No, I feel like I can do it every day. If like an old Italian man comes over. I don't think I can do it. No, yeah, that's true. I don't think I can get it up. I'm gonna be one of these guys she's hanging out with. I don't wanna hear you cucks, there you go.

You're looking for a pull quote, that is it. Yeah. Dave, you have an over... I was at the doctor yesterday. Oh, classic. And the doctor said... No more monkeys jumping on the bed. I brought in my monkey children, who were all of them.

Have you guys been on the bed? They all had head injuries. So I'm in the waiting room and a medical assistant took this old man to, before you go into, I guess for his appointment, I've never been measured at the doctor. Like height you mean? Yeah. Oh yeah.

I feel like I am. They put you on a scale and then they have a metal thing they put on you. Yeah, yeah. That's what he was doing. And she took him over there. Again, the doctor's never done it to me, not in my adult life anyway. Really? And she measured him and she says, you're 178 centimeters, so 5'10".

And he goes, I've shrunk two inches. And the medical assistant goes, unfortunately, I hate to be the barrier of bad news. No. No. No. No. No. No.

Losing a whole two inches, that's puts you, yeah, in a completely different. Oh. Yeah. All of a sudden you're not a short gang. My takeaway was that he was lying because he's like, I was six foot. So even like in retrospect. How guys lie about how tall they are by two inches.

By two inches? Yeah, usually a guy will lie about by two inches. Really? Are you on the apps? Yeah. Yeah. And what's like, it feels like there's a lot of taller people than there ever was in my life.

I feel like it's a taller population than it used to be. I think it is actually though, our food. Yeah. That milk, drinking the glasses of milk. Of those ads were like, drink your damn milk, you'll be big. I was at a party in Winnipeg, and everybody felt like everybody in the room was tall.

Like John Doerr was one of them and there were like three other guys. Lachlan Patterson was one of them. And these guys were all pretty tall. And then this one guy walked in that was like pushing on like 6'10". And he like, he had to duck his head coming in the door. And it was like, now that's tall.

I was dealing with tall before. And I literally had to talk to him like I was a kid. I had to chin up the whole time. Yeah, and when you dance with him, you put your feet on his feet. I was in high school. I, my dad would measure me every time I damn asked. My dad would measure me every time I damn asked. I measure my kids every six months.

Like, it's your half birthday. What does that mean? I don't know, I'll measure you. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But they, I remember being in high school when I became taller than my dad, who's like 5'11". And then I eventually like got to six feet, never measured myself again.

And then like a year ago, I measured myself. I'm now 5'11 and a half. I'm shrinking. Yeah. How tall are you? 5'7. 5'7, yeah. Nope.

I think, yeah, absolutely. Have you been on a date with somebody who is clearly not as tall as they had purported to be? Oh, yes. Yeah? Many times. You show up, like sometimes I'll go on a date with someone who put like five, nine, and then I show up and they're shorter than me and I'm like, well, that doesn't make sense.

They're like, oh, I was using Russian math. It's a different... Yeah. Yeah. And then does that get brought up or are you just like this guy's a loser? I don't really care about that much. This guy's a loser.

But it's always, it's never someone where they had a good personality. So I don't have to worry about it. Isn't it like a thing because women will, I guess people, I don't't know we're all animals man yeah well there's like oh five seven no no I don't know which swipe I'm swiping both directions yeah I don't know which is which yeah on all the apps is the swiping the same direction is it no you go left for no right for yes yeah yeah

but on all the yeah- On all the apps? Yeah, it's all the same. Oh, okay. That'd be cool. When I have my app, we're gonna switch it up. It's a prank app. And how does that work? Well, then you'll end up accidentally liking people

or like choosing people you- Oh, the thing is a prank. It's not swipe left or right for your favorite possible prank. No, no, no, it's like, oh, look at this gentleman. Oh, I don't like him. Oops, I went is a prank. It's not swipe left or right for your favorite possible prank. No, no, no. It's like, oh, look at this gentleman. Oh, I don't like him. Oops, I went the wrong way.

Now he's gonna, oh, and now we're married? Oh my God, he's like the least likely. But I guess that sort of how it works sometimes. What would be a good name for a wedding app? It was just like, I'm gonna wed the first person that I connect with. Tinders, hinge, it has to be one word. Grindr. Grindr.

Maybe like elope. Elope, that's good. Cause yeah, e, yeah, that's good. Randy wins. I'm gonna stop thinking of one. Do you ever overheard? I do. And it was courtesy of going to see the film, Friendship,

and there's, you know, there's some people that talk through the trailers and you're like super scared that they're just gonna keep talking the rest of the movie. And it was really, really packed. So there was no chance of moving somewhere else. And- It's so great seeing a movie. It's when it really packed. Yeah, it's like the first one I've been to for a

while that was like the first weekend of it anyways there's a couple behind me I'm scared they were gonna keep talking but at one point the guy was gonna continue kind of think talking and the woman that was with him said we'll talk about Jamie later just ramping up to have a conversation about Jamie. Yeah. I'll stop that. Yeah. Yeah, let's talk about Jamie later All right. I'm so happy when there's people in the movie theater. I'm so worried about movie theaters going away. Yeah Did I like years and years ago? I went on a date with a woman who started talking during a movie I was like this is Awful like had to push her I was like, well, this is not gonna. What do you remember the movie?

That's a great question. It was definitely something where you would have heard somebody talking during it. So wouldn't it look like an action film? Probably that Martin Scorsese silence movie. What was I gonna say? I have good things to say too sometimes. Yeah, always.

Talking in the movies, movie theaters going away to say too sometimes. Yeah, always. Talking in the movies, movie theaters going away, and it's gone. Oh, you know what it was? It was that movie theater in our neighborhood on Sunday mornings, they rented out to a church. Yeah. And they do church services.

Righteous gemstones. And they, but I just thought it was funny that the like Marquis still says, now playing friendship. And I was like, that's something a church would say. They change it to fellowship. And also with you. Yeah, I wonder if they utilized the screen in the old church service. It's a big, big room. They can show 70 millimeter cuts of God. screen in the old church service. It's a big, it's a big room. They can show 70 millimeter cuts of God.

I was just thinking when we were talking about movies and them kind of going away from theaters, you know, there's like cardboard cutouts that you get your picture taken with. And I was just thinking, how come there wasn't one of those for clergy or whatever it was called? What was the movie?

Conclaves. Conclaves. Oh sure. Where you get to, Conclave? Oh, sure. Where you get to sit in the middle of, yeah. Anyway. Will I be Pope? Oh, they also showed a preview for like the 25th anniversary of Dogma coming out. Yeah, that was weird. And I was like, this wasn't popular when it came out.

Yeah, this is, yeah, I don't know why it's released, but. That movie rips I love it. I don't understand why it's being Released um, maybe it's because it's very hard to find it on you can't find it on streaming anywhere So if you want to watch you have to get a DVD so a lot of people haven't seen it To be honest, I'll probably go to it. Why not seeing it before got that guy We're just talking about mm-hmm Ben Affleck is the best Now we also have overheard a lands more is that she play God?

Yes, yeah, and George Carlin plays like a hobo guy He like Remember he's a truck driver or he's a he was like a clergyman. Oh He's a he's a he's evil. I think know, he was like a clergyman. Oh yes, he's evil, I think. Yeah, it was the other movie. Oh, Kevin Smith doesn't like the church in this dogma movie, but I know that he's like a priest or whatever

and his wife had died, but he refused to take off his wedding ring. Right. Because he was sad. Even though a priest wouldn't wear a wedding ring. Yeah, maybe I should watch that. Maybe I'll, yeah. You want to go together, Randy?

Yeah. Okay, done and done. Now we also have overheard sent in to us by people all over the map. You want to send one in and then send it in to- What if someone sent you one that was like, I saw, I heard the Italian guy at a speedo season. You want to send one in, it's by at MaximumFun.org. This first one is from James B. I was visiting my dad... Ow! Ow!

I actually have never had that. But that is their big thing is like sausage rolls. Yeah. They're sort of like, I don't know, they're like they're like a pret a manger that you can believe in. Yeah Yeah, they're kind of like the working man's pretty much I would say as I was leaving the shop a family was walking past on the pavement Mom and dad and a boy and a girl around the ages of eight or nine I had the little girl clearly wanted to go into Gregg's why wouldn't you?

Yeah, oh, you're a little kid you want to get in? I was tugging on her mother's arm as I walked past them, I heard the mother say, no way, the last time I took you there, you got messed up. Again, handle your sausage rolls, kid. What is our equivalent here? Cobbs? Cobb. Panera. We don't really have Panera. We don't really have Panera in Toronto. Is it like a Menchies? What's it called?

I do. And they're trying to ship these, Randy. I mean, just like, you know, a dictionary is a heavy thing. Yeah. This next one's from that. If I'm filibustering, I'm reading a dictionary. You got through all the A's. Fuck. He's really here to do it. Oh, he got to the P's and now he's stopping for 30 seconds.

Just a moment. This next one comes from Matt in Massachusetts. And you think you'll still have a cough when you do your paper. Oh, absolutely. It's gonna be a nightmare. For context, I am currently sitting in an Irish pub in Somerville, Massachusetts, drinking a beer

and reading a book and couldn't help but overhear this guy at the other end of the bar say yeah But 9-eleven basically gave us my chemical romance and family guys. So, you know The one and two of culture was what I know it was the family guy reference a Fact that that Seth McFarland was supposed to be on one of those planes? Oh, I didn't even think of that. Maybe it's the same with My Chemical Romance when he used to be a guy. I'm sure there's an obvious reference to that

that I don't know. No, I don't. But maybe somebody just liked those two things. Were you emo? A little bit. I went to Warped Tour, I saw My Chemical Romance. And? They ripped.

Woman woman asked her friend if she had a good time. She looked kind of disappointed and said, yeah, but I said huzzah less than I expected to. Yeah, that's a big part of the Ren Faire experience.

Huzzah, ta-da, I feel like is a big one. M'lady. M'lady. You say gods instead of god. Oh yeah, you dads. Yeah. Zounds. Would you ever go do a Ren Faire? dads. Yeah. Zounds. Would you ever go do a rent fair? Yeah. Yeah. Would you do the dress up?

It's a rent fair. It's a rent fair. It's a rent fair. It's a rent fair. It'd be funny if all the costume stores ran out of red fairs. You had to go as like an astronaut or something like that. Like have you ever been to medieval times? No.

No, I know it, but I've never been. Oh, I went when I was like 10. Where are you from originally? Peace River. Okay. My parents took me to California when I was 10 and we went and that was great. Yeah? Yeah.

Because I feel like that would be one of the side effects of- Kind of, but there's like, what you're a delusional 10 year old, so you're like, the prince is gonna pick me.

This is Rachel in Georgia. I am in the middle of taking an online training on the use of AI. And in the little introductory video I just watched, the the woman who was presenting misspoke and said the word exacerbate, instead of exacerbate. And yeah, you just have to think about it for a second and enjoy. Thank you. Exasperate.

Exasperate? Watching it, do you guys know anything about AI? I feel like I'm late into the game AI wise. I know it makes the coolest visuals. Yeah, yeah, a whole new generation of garbage pail kids. I know that there is a, like, students now just use, it's completely, they don't even consider it cheating.

Why wouldn't I just use ChatGPD to write my essay? Yeah, I mean, I've surely back in the old days, I stole everything from a Cole's notes version of a book or something. Yeah. But you had to actually write that out by hand, you know, it was a different time. I asked ChatGPT, I said,

can you give me some outfits for someone with no curves? And then they just gave me the worst outfit. Pictures of olive oil. That's funny. That's really funny. Anyway, I think I said when I was on the radio for like a year, and one of the bits that I did was get chat to GBT to write me jokes. And one of them I asked him,

asked it to write me a joke about Justin Trudeau's divorce. And it said I cannot do that. Oh. So great. Justin's a friend. Yeah. Yeah. So that's got a stronger moral compass than I do.

Yeah. GBT. Here's your next phone call. Yeah, so that's got a stronger moral compass than I do. Yeah. Here's your next phone call. Hey, Dave Graham and esteemed guests. This is Paul from New Jersey with an overheard of the kids say the darnedest variety. My five-year-old daughter is a very slow picky eater. And one morning my wife was trying to hurry her through breakfast so she could get ready for school

When I caught this exchange Mommy, why do I need to eat breakfast? Well, honey, it's so you'd have energy for the day And you know that it will help you grow big and strong Hmm mommy. I don't want to get big and strong. I think I need to enjoy being a kid Hmm. Anyway off I go off to Chuck E Cheese you go. Yeah Yeah, well Anyway, off I go. Off to Chuck E. Cheese you go. Yeah. Wow. That was cute. Kids do say that.

But it stressed me out. This person was trying to get out the door and get the kid to eat. Yeah, the picky eater and rushing them for their breakfast and the slow eater is like, how many courses are you giving this kid? Finish your fifth course. You don't need bacon, eggs, a part of a complete breakfast. You just need some.

Yeah, something, anything will do. Yeah. What do you have for breakfast? What did I have? Both of these. Banana and some cereal and some other fruit to be remembered later. What did you have? I think I had an egg muffin. An egg muffin. Nice.

Like an egg mick muffin? Similar. But legally not similar. Yeah, but trademarked. I got there after 10.30 and they stopped serving it and I fell down. I had apple and yogurt. Nice. All right.

To balance. Hello, Dave and Graham. This is Rob from Jacob Town, Pennsylvania. I work in government and the other day I was meeting with someone and they were not ready yet and so they sat me with their assistant and I was talking to the assistant and he was asking me, he was like a young guy, he was asking me about my career and how I had gotten the job I had and then he asked me, he said, so what would you do if you didn't work in government? I said, I don't know. What would you do if you didn't work in government?

He said, I'd like to own amazon.com or Tesla. If he wasn't in government, he'd be one of the two richest guys in the world. Alright, thanks. You have to have a fallback plan. Yeah. Yeah. I'm doing this job. If not, I'll invent Microsoft. Yeah.
