Hi, he's Dave Schumke.
And he's Graham Clark.
And together we host Stop Podcasting Yourself.
Woo!
Hello everybody and welcome to episode number 901 of Stop Podcasting Yourself. My name is
Graham Clark. With me as always is a man who has just informed us today's the longest day
of the year. Boy, doesn't it feel like it. Mr. Dave Schoenke.
I know. It's like, is it cocktail o'clock yet?
Yeah. Oh, brother. Somebody's got to be blotto somewhere, they say.
Yeah. Is it five o'clock? No, it's 412 atotto somewhere. Yeah, is it five o'clock?
No, it's 412 at the moment.
Oh, 12 minutes to...
Till 424?
Oh yeah.
Yeah, 424.
Yeah, it's a tradition that you just get high
four minutes after 420.
If you're truly high, then you show up a little bit late.
Honestly, you know?
My experience is dealing with people who like, were potheads. Yeah. They were very on time
for 420. Yes. They were not on time for the movie. The movies where I had to save 12 seats for them while they all went
out and got smoked up outside.
Oh man, that it must be a lot easier now that you can pre-buy your seats.
You don't have to save.
Yeah.
And you can also have gummies that are a little bit less.
You can have gummies.
You don't have to find a sneaky place to hide away.
You can go right out front.
Yeah.
But it's kind of fun.
It's fun to find a little alleyway and smoke a little.
Oh boy, the day that Friendship, the Tim Robinson movie came out, I saw so many people walking
around like 10 minutes before and I smelled so much weed and it was all guys who looked
like they would go to that movie and get hot.
Our guest today, second time guest here on the podcast.
First in person.
Yeah, first in person.
He will be part of a Boom Pro Wrestling show
that's happening at the Commodore this July.
And he looks like a guy who would go
to the Tim Robinson movie.
It's Kyle Fiennes.
Hello, Kyle.
Smoke him if you got him.
The whole time we were doing that,
he was miming, holding two doobies.
Two doobies.
As somebody, and you could tell that I'm somebody
who definitely smokes joints all the time.
One of these is indica,
and the other one is the other kind.
Yeah, get yourself up,
and then this one brings you down.
Yep.
Here's a fun fact about me.
It doesn't matter what the name of the weed is,
it all messes me up.
Yeah, yeah.
They're like, well, this is a sativa blend
with them. Like, it doesn't matter. I'm not leaving my house.
Yeah. Well, let's get to know us. Get to know us. What's your experience with weed?
Let's all go through our favorite blends. Yeah. I like whatever Snoop Dogg's blend is.
It's kind of the best one for me. Yeah. 19 crimes. 90 crimes, that's what I like.
Ronald McDonald freak out, 2020 Kush.
Yeah, oh shit, that's 2020 Kush.
Yeah, I don't.
What happens to you when you smoke in particular?
Because I- Smoke in particular, I don't-
I feel like I lose my mind.
I just sink into a couch.
Right. And I just look-
That's why they call it Indica.
Because you're Indica.
Indica.
That's cool.
And Sativa, because you're.
They call it.
Watching the Sativi.
But, they say Indica for Indica,
but it would make more sense for Indicar.
Like I'm Indica.
I'm Indica.
But you shouldn't.
Don't be driving.
I love my keys, Indica.
Yeah, do you, what about you? about you Dave you smoked pot before right?
Guys, I'm like, oh my god, but my re
Yo, yeah, but Marley yeah
Certainly known pothead Jerry Stiller Like Ben Stiller's dad.
Yeah, he smokes so much weed.
Oh man, George Costanza.
Yeah.
And Graham, what's your...
My, the last time that I like actually like smoked a joint
was at a friend's wedding.
And my friend that was also there said,
during the wedding, they saw me standing,
there was a naan station,
it was like baking fresh bread, baked naan.
They said every time I saw you,
you were going back to the naan station.
And that was all I did the whole night.
Did you smoke weed at my wedding?
No, I didn't.
Oh, I forgot that I,
there's one thing you should know about me,
is I smoked two joints in the morning.
Oh yeah, and then what happened?
I smoked two joints at night.
And then?
Smoked two joints in the afternoon,
because it makes me feel all right. I smoke two joints at night. And then? I smoke two joints in the afternoon because it makes me feel alright.
I smoke two joints in time of peace and two in time of war and then you're gonna love
this part.
This is where it gets really clever.
I smoke two joints prior to smoking two joints and then once again I smoke two joints.
He smokes joints in times of war?
Get it together, man.
There's a war on. I thought that was a riddle for a minute
I was trying to figure it out
There you answer me these three spliffs, please
There is it is always times of war though if you think about it. We're like so that's what they want man
That's what they want man. I want yeah, what's your favorite war that's going on you guys will go around everybody
Who's what your favorite? Okay sure mine is of the world's now you go. Yeah, it's for the planet of the apes, okay?
Yeah, that's a good one
Cultural just general cultural just cultural okay. I read it somewhere. I don't know what it means, but
Seems cool. Yeah, smoke them if you got them. Yeah, buddy. Look if you got it now
I can't stop thinking about 420. You guys got it in my head.
Have you ever rolled a joint?
Oh, it's 417.
Oh, it's 417!
We got a 300 countdown.
Down, down, down.
So Kyle, you're a wrestling entrepreneur.
Yes.
I don't know what those words go together.
You're a heel. The MC. Yeah. So I am a part owner of a local wrestling company
in Vancouver called Boom Pro Wrestling.
The other owners, past guests, Stacey McLaughlin.
Stacey McLaughlin.
Does she still have a piece?
I think basically she has half of her partner,
Max Mitchell, who is, he does most of the leg work
and all the booking and stuff like that.
Like the figure four leg work.
Yeah, I was going to say, who does all the arm work?
He's a leg specialist.
The camel clutch.
Yeah. I'm drawing a blank on wrestling moves and I'm around it so much now.
Atomic leg drop.
Yeah. I don't like to take my work home, you know.
Hi, I'm getting all my texts through my computer and they're so loud
So I thought it was me a person you piece of crap Kyle
I think I can't turn it off count down to 420 to minute. It's probably from my it's only 30 seconds to 420
I think my I think it was my stoner friends texting me and say, hey, Dave, let's meet in the quad.
Yeah.
Let's meet in the quad.
Let's meet in the alley outside Scotiabank theater.
So you've, in your capacity of working with this wrestling,
you've done actual, some wrestling, right?
Yeah, I've gotten the crap kicked out of me
on most occasions.
So in the ring, in the show, I'm the 50% owner.
I've sort of lied and cheated my way
to owning 50% of the company.
So now I sort of come out and I use that power.
And this person I am in the ring
is basically a warped version of me.
Now, let's lay it all out there.
It's still me though. Let's lay it all out there.
What's your actual ownership percentage?
It's under 50%.
It's under 50%.
But I am an owner.
I am an owner.
I can legally say that.
I am a WestJet owner.
Are you?
What does that mean?
Oh, yeah.
If you are, yeah, right?
If you fly WestJet, you're a WestJet owner.
Or is it if you work?
Yeah, I think it's only employees.
Never mind.
All right. What am I an owner's only an employee. Nevermind. All right, well.
What am I an owner of?
Subaru?
Lonely Heart?
I know that people, okay, what was the home hardware ads
where homeowners helping homeowners?
Yeah, and then-
Home hardware's locally owned, they're all-
Yeah, but they're owned by the owners.
Yeah, it's franchised.
Yeah, yeah, I do own a Subaru, you're right.
Yeah.
So this podcast is about
Home hardwares and smoking weed
Basically, I guess so. Heck yeah, dude. So far. I'm into it. I mean, it's about wrestling as well and it is 420 now
See you guys later. Yeah, you guys are cool if I smoke these two tiny joints again. No, those are our dicks
Sorry, I'm super No No, those are our dicks.
Oh no.
Don't light them.
No, no, no.
Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Put those down.
Okay.
So what moves, what moves have you done?
Oh boy.
Or had done two.
So the best story is that on New Year's Eve, uh, we were, I was supposed
to come out and I was supposed to count down to midnight.
And then somebody was supposed to come out and hit a move on me.
And that would be the end of it.
But we were running fast and I came out with 10 minutes to spare.
Oh shit.
So that person came out and hit me with a move.
Then they hit me with another move.
Then they hit me with a third move.
And then the entire roster came out and each hit me with a different move.
For real?
Yes.
Yikes.
There's video of it.
It was awful.
Hit you with a move.
Well, you know, did a move.
Did a move.
Performed a move.
But not necessarily hitting you.
No.
Sometimes squeezing.
I got clothesline, power bombed, top rope, elbow dropped by a very large gentleman, splashedashed what is it like to be top rope?
Slammed on my ribs were broken both with a land on top rope elbow drop. Yeah
Yeah, I feel like we could make some kind of like
Elbow drop but like what the clothesline like it just lists them all and then oh
Time yeah like all the
Rope something something just if we're doing like a radio ad for boom pro wrestling Oh, like so sort of that. Closed line all the time. Yeah, like all the... Top rope, something, something.
Just if we're doing like a radio ad for Boom Pro Wrestling,
just come up with a jingle like,
top rope, elbow drop.
Closed line.
Camel clutch, oh shit.
But just like, well, there was that ad for 1-800-BAR-10
that listed all the drinks.
Dave, how does that one go?
I made a slippery nipple and a white Russian,
a neutron bomb.
That's maybe what made me think of it.
Yeah.
And a Manhattan, a dry martini and a pina colada,
a purple hooter and a Bahama mama.
Barton and college is the school to attend,
I'll 1-800 Barton.
Barton.
Kyle? Did you go to Barton in college? the school to attend, I'll 1-800. Bartender. Bartender. Fuck.
Kyle?
Did you go to bartender college?
Oh.
Let's lay our cards on the table.
Self taught bartender.
Wait, somebody who did comedy was a bartender at one point?
We were a bartender.
Yes, of course.
This was a, in Graham's 24 hour comedy show,
in my writing session,
there was a staff of writers that included Alicia Tobin,
Kelly Ogmanson, Christine Borland and Kyle Fiennes.
And a few others who I'm sorry.
Oh, there, yeah.
It was pretty dark in there.
Yeah, it could have been anyone.
A lot of people I met for the first time.
Raccoon showed up.
And there was a big running thing
making fun of Kyle's bartending.
Yes, and headshot.
And his headshot.
My old headshot.
And how your headshot, what looked like the headshot of a bartender?
It looked like a guy who played a bartender.
I think the CW was around a lot.
Yes.
So, oh, see, I forget this bartending angle.
I remember making fun of everybody's headshots.
That was like a real...
There was definitely a bartending angle and it wasn't even insults because it was
all true.
Did you do flair? Come on.
Hey, wrestling, bartending, flair is the thing that unites them.
Yeah.
Oh.
Rick and otherwise.
Yeah.
Yeah. Rick bartender flair?
Mm-hmm.
I mean... Rick player bartender. Could you do any?
In heavens, no.
Oh, no.
I, when I originally started working in the industry, I worked, there's a chain in Toronto
called Jack Astor's.
Yes.
Isn't it Canada wide?
Is it?
I wasn't in Calgary.
They don't have it over here though.
I know that.
No, no, no.
But growing up, we went to Jack Astor's.
Yes.
And there was definitely a, some of the bartenders were training for a flair competition.
They do every year.
I was just going to say it's pretty much at a certain level, just the same flair over and
over again. And that is behind the back, flippity dip, pour over the shoulder.
I was just going to say, yeah.
One of those.
Over the shoulder.
Bring it around like that. And you just, you know, I don't know.
What about lining up a bunch of shot glasses
and then filling them all up?
Yeah, that's something you would see in Cabo
or Cancun or something.
I couldn't do any.
I'm-
Cabo, Cancun, Puerto Vallarta maybe.
Like Tijuana?
Senior Frogs.
Tulum.
Oh yeah, Senior Frogs would be like-
Did you, Graham had neighbors, roommates?
Yeah.
Our neighbors who were training, be flyer bartenders training to be, and they had these
fake bottles that were weighted like a bottle.
Do you know, do you know if you look at this?
Yeah.
There was like a big Toronto competition that people were training for and they would, when
it got slow, they would practice with them.
I, just bartending and making drinks for people was so stressful enough as it is.
I couldn't imagine also trying to think about throwing shit around behind a bunch of bottles.
Yeah.
And who's it for?
You'd have to be a very specific customer that likes that stuff.
The tourists.
The people who go to Cocktails and Dreams.
Coyote Ugly.
Coyote Ugly.
I don't think they did Flair.
Dancing on the bar is pretty Flair.
They dance, they cut off your necktie.
They sprayed you with the water thing.
Yeah, they had fun.
So yeah, you can get on Amazon for $14.99
a Flair bartending, bartending practice bar pub,
bottle wine cocktail, shaker white.
The-
You can get it in different colors.
I don't know.
This is from the brand Zz-
Zz-
Gux.
G-E-U-X-E.
They also make-
Ziggy.
Computer parts it looks like.
They seem to also make computer parts,
a sewing machine. And some sort of knives.
I don't know.
A stunky puppet. A monkey puppet.
A flingshot flying monkey.
They do it all.
The Amazon of it all has really, the fact that every product doesn't have a name, it
just has a description that will...
Like a searchable term.
Yeah.
Yes.
And you'll find, I was talking about this today with my partner about
Finding on Amazon you're looking for one thing
I was looking for a fan a bathroom fan
Or just died and you type it in and then the exact same fan shows up just under a different
Yeah, company name is exactly all those cheaper. Yeah, but it's the exact there's nothing you check out all the specs and everything like that
I bet if you search for that, that bottle would be.
Oh yeah, sure.
Well, I'm a bathroom fan myself.
I love the whole thing.
Sinks, toilets.
You love the bathroom readers is a big.
Uncle Tom's bathroom insight and jokes.
I think it's Uncle John.
I think Uncle Ben's bathroom rice.
Yeah, you make it in the toilet. It's ready in three full hours. Yeah, boil it's Uncle John. I think Uncle Ben's bathroom rice. Yeah, you make it in the toilet.
It's ready in three full lunches.
Yeah, boil it in the toilet.
Get out of here, I'm making rice in the toilet.
Three flushes.
You make it in the tank.
Oh, you make it in the tank.
Yeah, yeah, but otherwise you're flushing it away.
Well, no, when you flush it, when you do it in the tank
and then you flush it, it comes up to be served.
Yeah.
Oh yeah, it gets it as.
Then you just get your colander ready.
Toilet scooper. Oh yeah, you I guess it does. And you just get your colander ready? Toilet, scooper.
Oh, you're making brown rice today?
Um...
It's better for you.
We were at
Paul of Tompkins' show.
Friend of the show, Paul of Tompkins. Ex-friend of the show.
Oh, no! What did he do?
He doesn't come on so much anymore.
Aw, geez.
But we, Graham and I were sitting next to each other
watching all the ads for future things
that were happening at the Commodore ballroom.
And it would be bands that we'd never heard of.
Yeah.
And then boom, pro wrestling.
Yeah. There you go.
Was it Abraham Lincoln?
It was two bodies, two bodies colliding. Smashing wrestling. Yeah. There you go. Was it Abraham Lincoln? It was two bodies, two bodies colliding.
Smashing together.
Yeah.
We use Abraham Lincoln, who's one of our wrestlers
in a lot of our promo.
Yeah.
You've been to couple now.
Yes.
A handful of shows.
And he is right out of the gates,
his stovepipe hat was not quite right,
but has gotten better over time.
Yeah, and he keeps it on the entire time he wrestles.
He doesn't take his hat off.
He has a stovepipe, stovepipe hat and a button nose and two eyes made out of coal.
Is that right?
And that's what makes him so indestructible.
Unless you take the hat off and then he turns back into snow.
Now shit.
You.
Shit.
This is a great idea I have and it is you start learning flair bartending.
I think I know where you're going, but keep going.
And then you come over and make me a damn drink.
Okay, yeah, there we go.
No, you incorporated into the wrestling.
Oh, there should totally be a wrestler who does flair.
There was a wrestler a while back who was a pizza guy.
The pizza guy kills me.
He threw pizzas and then it turned out he was Andy Vax.
Oh really?
Yeah, I'll do.
I'll end up that way. Was that in your, in this promotion? No, it was not. He would do the pizzas and then it turned out he was anti-vax. Oh really? They all do.
I'll end up that way.
Was that in your, in this promotion?
No, no.
Nobody's a guy that's like constantly making dough and he's like hitting his opponents
with them.
That's really good.
And then he would just put it on his leg and stuff like that.
And then there was a, there was a Michael Jackson impersonator wrestler who would moonwalk.
Thank you.
He moonwalked to the ring or? Yeah, or he would do moonwalk moves
and incorporate the spins and the kicks.
But he was pro-vax.
He was way too pro-vax.
Yeah, yeah, like a little too, you know, on the other side.
You can kind of sweet spot the metal.
Yeah, I get vaccinated once a year.
This guy wanted me to get vaccinated every day.
Every day?
That's too much.
He was Michael Vaxen
We're all gonna leave
Ask me to do what is this show it's called stop podcasting yourself. This is episode 901. I mean it makes sense
Next episode is gonna be 902. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, we got an episode 9-11 coming up soon.
I won't forget that one.
I was going to say we've got Luke Perry coming in.
He's not with us anymore.
We could get Osama Bin Laden would be great for 9-11.
That would be great.
What a good get-go that would be.
He's tall.
He's tall and he had like a pre-terrorist life where he's kind of like a swinging 70s
cool guy.
Yeah!
That's when I think about him I think.
Yeah, and he really fell off and became a terrorist guy.
Yeah, I wonder what his villain origin story was.
Good question.
Well, I think it was probably that he was rich.
Was he?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's always the rich kids with too much time on their hands.
Yeah, that's right. You either do what he did or you become a flair bartender. Yeah, that's what Lena Dunham did
She became a terrorist after
They're kind of like Neppo babies these terrorists. That's true. Is Lena Dunham a Neppo baby?
Yeah, I thought she was like her parents were like part of the New York art scene
Yeah, but like most of the actors on the show were Neipple babies on girls. That's true. That was the whole hook
Yeah, you social mammoth and even Alison Williams. Yeah, Alison Williams. She got her buddy
Somebody had their bum bum eating out on TV and man, oh man, you could just picture papa. Oh, yeah
I watch every episode regardless
You could just picture Papa at home. Yeah, I watch every episode regardless
This just did I watch you get your ass eat is that what he said when they would cut them on the news this just It's just in everything
Constantly feeding him news. Yeah, everything was this is it guys. You gotta just give it to me all one
Yeah, yeah, just give me some
Here stuff. I know the teleprompters broke. It was the original cliffhanger. It was just like, this just in, you know? We'll see you after the break. Well, this is, even if it was just like news from earlier that day, it was like, well, the prime rate has been dropped.
Yeah.
Yeah.
0.1% of this just in, I guess.
Why do they keep handing me this story about my daughter getting her ass eaten on television?
This is not just in.
You just did this, you guys.
Beaten by that guy on the bear.
Yes.
And then, you know, the guy on the bear, he's like, oh, I'm going to be a good boy.
I'm going to be a good boy.
I'm going to be a good boy.
I'm going to be a good boy.

Yes.
Oh, it's the guy from the bear.
Yeah, the main guy.
No, not Carmine.
Cousin.
Oh, cousin?
Yeah.
He's in the new Fantastic Four.
Is he?
He's the thing.
He's the thing.
He's always saying on the bear, he's like,
man, the bear, you're such a good cook.
The last thing I ate tastes like ass.
But your food is so much better than that.
So much better than ass.
Yeah.
Now that he's part of the MCU, I don't think he's allowed to eat ass anymore.
Probably not.
I'm pretty sure that MCU is anti-ass eating.
But like, imagine getting eaten by the thing?
That would hurt.
Rocky! That would hurt! That would hurt. Rocky!
That would hurt!
That would hurt.
They make all sorts of crazy rock sounds.
Now I'm not a comic book guy.
Yeah, as you can tell we are.
But does the thing eat ass?
Yes.
But like, who, what?
This is a call-in show, right?
Call-in, please tell us if the thing is ever...
What characters of the MCU or DCU or even the non cinematic universe?
Okay.
Just would you like to have each other?
Oh, you would like to have.
Okay.
The tongue is the tongue of guy.
I feel like.
Toad, Toad from X-Men.
Yeah, he has a big ass.
I would like Spider-Man because while he was doing it, he could web my wiener and kind of pull it a little.
Oh man.
Ha ha ha ha ha.
Ha ha ha ha ha.
Ha ha ha ha ha.
Ha ha ha ha ha.
Ha ha ha ha ha.
Right?
Right guys?
Excelsior, isn't that what Stan Lee would say?
That's what you say when you talk.
Yeah.
Excelsior.
For me, it would probably be Garfield.
Oh yeah.
Ha ha ha ha.
You can tell him there's lasagna in there.
And it would not be on a Monday.
You know what?
I mean, that's all well and good,
but truly I guess Odie is the answer.
Yeah, Odie's got the big old tongue.
But not Nermal, because fuck Nermal.
No, what do we have against Nermal?
I don't have anything against Nermal.
I thought he was anti-vaxx.
He was anti-vaxxer.
Yeah, right?
Yeah.
And anti-ass eating.
Although, yeah, send that.
Too bad.
A normal boy?
Uh, genderless?
I think normal was.
Cute.
Cute was the gender.
And then it was always sent to Abu Dhabi.
Yeah.
This was before the big explosion of, of like capital entered Abu Dhabi. Now Abu Dhabi, you, you want to be sent to Abu Dhabi. Yeah. This was before the big explosion
of like capital entered Abu Dhabi.
Now Abu Dhabi, you want to be sent there.
Yeah, yeah.
Is Nirmal the mascot for Abu Dhabi
for all of their marketing materials?
Yeah, they're like, it's like their Hello Kitty.
Oh, that's so awesome.
Remember the guy who created Hello Kitty came out
and said there wasn't a cat?
Yeah, that was messed up.
Yeah.
What did they say?
It was a kid, it was a little kid.
It's a girl dressed as a cat. But there's no zipper. Hmm, interesting. messed up. Yeah. What did they say? It was a kid. It was a little girl dressed as a cat. But yeah, there's no zipper.
Hmm.
Interesting.
Show me the zipper.
Yeah, show me the zipper.
Don't tell me it's laced up.
We don't do we ever see it.
Do we get a 360 of Hello Kitty at any point?
Hmm.
Is Hello Kitty just like staring at you face on?
But like is Hello Kitty like a cartoon?
Yeah, I think it's everything. Or is it just like, is Hello Kitty like a cartoon?
Yeah, I think it's everything.
Or is it just stickers?
I thought it was just like a, yeah, just like a toy.
Hmm, I think it's probably been a cartoon.
Does that make sense?
Yeah, right, it has to start somewhere.
Yeah.
Or is it like a Ninja Turtles where the toys came first,
or like a He-Man.
He-Man.
Where the toys come first and then you
pay something around it.
I know she's everywhere. Yeah
It is it is she I guess it's a little girl, right as
this was a fun thing driving with my wife Sally we figured there was a
License plate that was a vanity license plate, but we couldn't quite make it out
But because it was like there was the number three. Oh, Oh yeah I've seen this car. I was like this is Hello Kitty. And they have like Hello Kitty stuff. Stickers on it. All over the car yeah.
It's weird it's still we live in a small enough town that we've both seen that. We've seen the same car.
I think in Vancouver there's certain things that is kind of becomes a thing within the city because
it is for a bigger metropolitan city. It's a small, big metropolitan city.
Yeah.
You guys seen the anime car with the two busty anime ladies on it?
No, I think so.
They weren't as busty as you're describing them, though.
I didn't say how busty.
I like them just off the wall.
Oh, yeah.
No, I haven't seen that.
Oh, no.
It was used to I used to see it all the time near Main and Terminal.
There was a, I think it was a security guards car
because I would always see it late at night near
like where they were doing construction.
But it was like a blue Honda style,
something you would see in Tokyo Drift.
Yeah. Okay.
But it was completely covered in a wrap of big,
very busty,
Dave, anime women in bikinis.
I have pictures on my phone I'll show it to you
after we're done.
We, here are the cars I also remember that there was,
boy, was it like-
Laborhood cars?
Was it a car that had, it was like a McLaren,
like a, or some super car, covered in a wrap
that was Pikachu, or am I thinking?
Oh, yeah.
Or was there one covered in like cats
or like the Doge dog?
Oh, wow.
I didn't see the Doge dog.
And then of course there was,
one guy in town had a Delorge.
That was exactly where my mind,
and then there's the guy with the sidecar for his pug.
Yeah.
And it looks sort of like a war style,
like World War II style.
Yeah. Yeah.
Like the red bear.
Because I think there's a fake Gatling gun on it.
Yeah. Yeah, right?
And it just makes everybody's day.
Whenever they see this, this pug.
Have you guys seen Stiltz guy?
No, well, maybe.
He is around Mount Pleasant.
I hope everybody right now who knows him time
but is freaking out. But it's a guy on like athletic stilts who runs around Mount Pleasant
athletic stilts. Google athletic stilts, please. But it's this guy who runs around on these like
almost like you would see you think he'd be covered. Yes. Oh, yeah. He runs around on these like, almost like you would see, you'd think he'd be covered, yes, those are them.
He runs around with them, they're sort of like,
crescent-shaped stilts, and he has a helmet and a GoPro,
and he runs around, short of yelling,
look at me, everybody, aren't I unique and different?
Hello, stop staring.
Can he get up to speed?
Can he hear us?
Oh, he can.
Yeah, he's a big listener.
He's right behind me.
He's like.
They are $385 or 321 adult kangaroo shoes, jumping stilts, fitness exercise on Amazon.

don't call them kangaroo shoes adult kangaroo shoes jumping stilts fitness
exercise sky runner adult kangaroo shoes jumping stilts fitness exercise adult
fitness stilt running shoes space jumping stretch shoes stilt jumping shoes
these are all adult the adult is the first word of all these yeah I bet there's a lot of disappointed kids. Yeah, it's probably not safe for kids.
I knew a guy that him and his wife both were buskers. But one thing they would do several
times were the busty buskers. They were anime ladies. Even though one of them was a husband.
Anyways, they would do stilts in like fairs and stuff like that.
Which was like an ongoing, every summer they'd like
have stilt gigs.
I respect that, that's where stilts belong.
Yeah.
Keep stilts at the fair and the circus.
Yeah.
Get them off my sheets.
Get them out of our boardroom.
Get them off my sheets.
Get them off the treadmills.
Yeah, yeah.
If I was like, I wanna come up with a clown character
who's on stealth and his name is Whoa, Whoa, Whoa.
Whoa.
Oh.
Sorry.
Do you wanna think of other neighborhood cars?
Oh, we used to have a segment on the song called
Neighborhood Nicknames, Neighborhood Jerks.
Yeah, like nicknames of like, oh, you know,
that guy is brown jacket
Yeah
Let's uh
Crack open this device. Is it we Vancouver's got a lot of them jerks like just neighborhood where you're like, ah, that's uh, yeah
That's that guy. Yeah, I have a nickname for that guy. Yeah, let's find it here
Sorry, there's there was a one in my neighborhood that...
No.
I know two that spring to mind.
Yeah.
Well, three, but I think no.
Have you lived in Mount Pleasant?
Have you been to Mount Pleasant before?
You mean over on Main Street?
Yeah, have you lived on Main Street before?
Yeah, I used to live there long, long time ago.
I had a bachelor on 14th, and it was...
looked right into the window of a woman never wore a shirt.
Oh interesting.
And she would come into the coffee shop that I worked at and I'd be like
you don't know what I know is that you don't wear a shirt all the time.
The friends episode.
Yeah.
Okay I think I've found it.
Okay.
And I accept.
I found it online.
it. Okay. And I accept. I found it online. My ability to search my own computer has something's wrong. Yeah, no, mine is the same. If I try to find like a document. Oh, yeah. Yeah. How
many of them do and do in documents? Why am I looking at documents? Who's that guy carrying the flag every day?
What do you call a flag Pete, flag Frank?
You don't know his name
So you made up a name
Yeah
I think the idea was that the segment was called Neighborhood Nicknames.
Oh, right.
Because these are all people.
What did you call Topliz lady?
Well, she was just as just between her and I.
Yeah, it was a private thing.
Yeah.
No, the one that, you know, like the famous one in Vancouver is...
Roller Girl.
Roller Girl.
Roller Girl, of course.
Roller Girl is a person who goes around on roller skates and aggressively directs traffic.
And was like in jail for...
Yes, yes.
...slaughtering.
Also, she's right behind me.
Oh no.
Get her, Stiltz guy.
I've seen a roller girl a lot recently and not on roller skates.
Really?
Just walking around, looking pissed off as always,
but no roller skates to be seen.
I would say I've seen them upwards to five times recently
without them on.
Really?
I see Roller Girl sometimes on a ballot.
Oh yeah.
Do you know how many people voted for Roller Girl
in this last election?
How many?
Over 300.
Really?
300 people threw their votes into a fire and said, I hate democracy.
But the lines were so long to vote.
It's like, well, I love democracy,
but I'm gonna throw Roller Girl a bone.
Imagine waiting four hours to vote for Roller Girl.
I guess.
Yes, right behind you.
Oh.
Maybe that's a new policy that she's instituting. No more roller, just girls.
She's just girl now.
She's just walking girl.
Huh.
Shoe girl.
Yeah.
Shoe girl, exactly.
There was a lady that would always be around kind of Fraser and Kingsway that would ask
you for a cigarette, which I just called her,
can I have a cigarette?
Yes.
You know who I'm talking about.
Well, when I worked at the bar on Kingsway, she would come in and yes, yes, cigarette
lady, yes, yes.
We had, when we originally did this segment, it was when I lived in a neighborhood where
there were quite a few sex workers. Yeah, yeah, really in their sweatpants and
So I think that some of the nicknames were about that and I would like to apologize. Yeah, I just own that
Yeah, there's a there's opera man
He's the guy who would walk through the alleyways near between Camby and oak around 14th who would sing opera
I'd miss I miss this guy. Sally would know.
Yeah.
100%.
And there was a guy who wore a Maple Leafs jersey
but looked like Santa a lot.
Oh, did he save like Scrooge?
Look like Santa save like Scrooge.
Do you, speaking of Santa, do you gentlemen know as,
you know, I'm from Toronto originally.
Have you guys heard of Santa?
No. So Santa is a Toronto personality,
much like we were just talking with Roller Girl,
who was a very jacked gentleman.
Oh yes, he's a zaddy.
Yeah, he would wear a, he did not seem all there.
He would wear a Santa hat and he was super jacked
and he would just start doing pull-ups and push-ups ups and stuff and get on, uh, buses and do pull ups and yeah,
yeah, he would do those noises.
And I don't know where is Santa.
If you're out there, please call in.
This is a calling show.
This is a calling Santa.
But yeah, he was a big Toronto personality.
Are you there?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Um, this is Rodney from Hamilton. Oh, you told our producer you were Zanta?
Oh, I was just a fan of Zanta, I think. All right, tell me about him. Well, he's really,
he's really got some upper body stuff. Is this really Rodney or is this Bane? No, this
is not Bane. Wait, it sounds familiar, though. No, no, no, this is not. Bane, No, this is not Bane. Wait, it sounds familiar though. No, no, no. This is not.
Bane, I, oh boy.
Imagine Bane trying to eat your ass.
He could.
Exactly.
I think you're going to go on a little something like this.
I know, I'm sorry.
The mask.
The mask is in the way.
Nobody knew I could eat ass until I wore the mask.
He's sort of like the opposite of Batman, because Batman is all-
He's all-
He's all space.
He's all ass eater.
Known ass eater.
Yeah, international known ass eater, Batman.
Yeah.
He's all-
He's all-
He's all-
He's all- He's all- He's all he's all face. It's all known as cedar. Yeah international known as cedar Batman those juicy lips, too
Hey, Christian Bale Batman. Well, I'm Val Kilmer. Yeah, I was just watching Batman forever last night and he's get them
Those
Eels I can't talk about them this way. A-E-Ls. ASL? As eating lips.
I just watched him in a movie about the cowboys that it's called.
Tombstone.
There you go.
We got there.
And when I saw you at the plaza, you were just in the middle of watching it.
Yup.
And... It was on his iPhone. And then, sadly, I went home middle of watching it. Yep. And it was on his iPhone.
And then suddenly it went home, we watched it.
Oh, did you?
Yeah.
I'd never seen it before.
It's fun.
Great flick?
It's not a great flick.
Oh.
It is, I feel like there's a lot of 90s nostalgia for.
Everything?
Everything.
Yeah.
And that was when I was like,
well, people are loving Tombstone.
I should watch Tombstone.
I think I have a thing where if I hear too many guns in a movie,
I just like tune out.
If the if there's just enough pew pews, I just like,
now I'm going to look at my phone.
Yeah, I mean, I rewatched it, still loved it.
Still thought it was, I remember Val Kilmer
not being quite as sick as he was in the movie.
He's very sick.
He's very sick.
He's very sick.
But I did Google all those people in real life
and it was pretty accurate.
Yeah.
I mean the dates.
Did they all have the mustaches as portrayed in the movie?
I don't know if they were photographed.
They were great mustaches.
Oh yeah.
I've been to where all that happened in Arizona.
You went to the OK Corral?
I went to the OK Corral and saw the-
How was it?
It was cool.
It was cool.
It was okay.
It was, yeah.
What did you see?
What did you see?
They did a recreation of the shootout and
Everybody who was playing the characters looked absolutely nothing like them
Absolutely nothing like the actors or the characters themselves. Why it was pushing like 350. Okay
One guy had a wireless Bluetooth headphones
No, I won't take them off in Sam Elliott is what's his face?
His brother, they're like Kurt Russell, Sam Elliott and Bill Paxton.
Are they all brothers?
They're the herbs.
And then our last name is Earp.
Is that right? Yeah, it's name is Earp. Is that right?
Yeah, it's Earp.
Yeah, Earp.
How do you spell that?
E-A-R-P.
Yeah, exactly what it sounds like.
Like Earp.
Yeah.
But there, I don't believe Sam Elliot as anyone's brother.
Like-
He is kind of everybody's uncle.
Yeah.
Isn't he also in-
Roadhouse?
In the Starsborne, isn't he like Bradley Cooper's brother?
Yeah, or-
Is he?
He's some relation, yeah, maybe it is his brother.
But you're right, Sam Elliott, everybody's uncle, or dad, or grandfather.
He was, yeah, in Roadhouse, he was kind of an uncle figure to Patrick Swayze.
Called a me-ho.
Yeah, he called him me-ho.
Yeah. I have one of the most devastating movie deaths to me when I was a kid was when he finds him
in the bar with the knife in his, that devastated me.
He's a great character.
Yeah.
I just thought about that knife the other day because later in the movie, he sticks
the knife in the accelerator of his car and zooms into the bad guys.
So good.
And I was like, because I was just thinking about it,
I was like, how could a knife go through a gas pedal?
It's such a-
And it like, it-
It was like pinned to the floor.
Oh, wow, that's-
It's some kind of-
That's a strong knife.
That's a strong knife.
Well, it's strong enough to kill Sam Elliott.
That's true.
It had to be.
It had to be.
It had to be like a katana.
Now I haven't seen this movie.
So-
Oh, I'll answer any questions. No spoilers to Sam Elliott live
He has a good life. Yeah
You've never seen Roadhouse. No, that's interesting
But I'm gonna get absolutely
Shredded by the internet for not liking tombstone. I guess what I watched a week later. Do so do
Know another Kurt Russell movie, Escape from New York.
Oh yeah.
It was fine.
You're more of an Escape from LA kind of guy.
I don't know.
You know the basketball scene where he has to make layups to get out with his life.
Is this correct?
Yeah, Escape from LA.
My dad and I remember I saw it in theaters before I saw Escape from New York.
And there's a scene where Kurt Russell has to play basketball
to live.
So what, but like, how does that happen?
Just to score a certain amount of baskets within a timeframe.
And if you want to see Kurt Russell tell the producers and director that he can play basketball
and then show you that he cannot play it.
That was in his contract?
Okay, at least once I'm allowed to, I've got to do some layups.
Yeah.
I'm going to do an alley-oop.
Yeah.
You figure.
Do you want to, we could do something where we put a, you can slam dunk it. Nah.
No, no.
I'm fundamental to the movie.
No, Snake Plissken wears like an army boot kind of thing. Does he put on like a Reebok
pump for this?
Oh, I don't remember, but I could see a close-up scene where he bends over, puts on the pumps,
and then pumps them up.
Yeah. It was a sequel that didn't ever need to get made, I guess.
Also, it was the same plot.
Bet it's very hard to play basketball with an eye patch.
Oh, with one eye, yeah.
The depth perception of it all.
Oh, yeah, it's a lot of depth perception stuff.
Everything but net, you know,
and you've got that eye patch on.
Yeah, ask me anything about Roadhouse.
All that.
Okay.
Roadhouse, uh, Patrick Swayze in it.
Correct.
Is there a, does he fall in love?
He does.
With who?
Uh, the town doctor.
Uh huh.
She's, she's a doctor.
And does she-
She stitches him up.
Is she a famous actress?
Nope.
Okay.
Uh, yeah, no.
But isn't she related, isn't there something with Bill Murray? There's a whole story where her husband- She's Sam Elliott's sister. Okay. Yeah, no. But isn't she related? Isn't there something with Bill Murray?
There's a whole story where her husband's sister. Yeah. Yeah, Sam Elliott's sister.
Her husband is friends with Bill Murray and his brothers and apparently what they would do is
whenever the sex scene would come on TV, they would call him and tell them that they were watching
his wife getting plowed by Patrick Swayze. Right. But there's no scene where she gets plowed. Well, he does have sex with her and her back is against like an exposed brick chimney that
looks like it would cut the shit out of your back.
Especially the way Patrick Swayze does it.
Yeah.
And he doesn't like a moonlight, you see his butt.
Oh yeah, you get a moonlight butt, he's just like on the roof smoking a cigarette.
Yeah.
Dave, what do you think road house is about?
Hey, I know what it's about. You know what's about hmm. There's a very dangerous bar. Yes
double-deuce and
Patrick Swayze. Yeah. Why are we asking Graham asking me? Oh, yeah
Who is the?
Who is it the friend that he plays music? Who's his musical friend?
Jeff Healy.
Oh, wow.
Yeah, that's good.
And he is, do they call him a cooler?
That was going to be my next question.
What is he called?
Yeah, but he's a bouncer.
Do they call him a cooler?
Yeah, because you're supposed to cool them down.
You're not supposed to just bounce people.
You're supposed to de-escalate the situation.
Yeah.
And Dave, what are you supposed to do if somebody makes fun of you or if they call your mother
a whore?
Oh, well, that you you gotta just turn the other cheek
You walk him outside and you smile. Yeah. Yeah. Well first you ask is she
Yeah, true or false. Yeah, okay
Have you seen the movie the cooler?
Close William H. Macy which he's the guy that like gambles and... I think he's like a bad luck charm. He's a bad luck charm.
You bring in a cooler to throw people off who are on a heater. Right. He like spills
his drink all over the craft table. He spills a bunch ofoker cards every time. Yeah. Those instructional cards.
He's got a hand.
Copyright bicycle.
What do you got?
Yeah.
Let's show your hand.
If you were to bring a deck of cards into a casino and just in the open start shuffling
them, do you think you would be thrown out immediately?
Yeah, because I don't know what color the casino cards are.
Like, what if you just, that's your tick.
You bring a card. Is that, that's your tick, you bring,
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Is that, is there a thing where you're not allowed
to play with cards?
No outside cards.
No outside cards, yeah.
Yeah, but there's no outside cards.
Probably a thing, right?
Yeah.
Huh.
Oops.
There's a whole thing in one of the Ocean's movies
where they actually like get somebody to work
at the company in Mexico that makes the dice
so that they can weight it a certain way
and ship it to this particular casino,
to this guy who's gonna put it on the floor.
Those movies just got better.
They peaked with 12 where it turns out
that they didn't need to do any of the things they did.
And all it was was just grabbing the egg
and walking away with it.
That's what I like from my movies.
Is that the end of it?
There's 11.
And Julia Roberts plays herself. Yeah, she does. That's what I like from my movies And Julia Roberts plays herself
Yeah, she does that is that's the judge a weird the dumb thing that like well any movie could do
You decided yeah, we're the ones are gonna. Yeah, I mean you look like Julia Roberts
You're going to play Julie never happened it like no one brought it up in Ocean's 11 that hey Julia Roberts
Yes, and your tests
Hey, did you see all of those guys robbing the casino look like famous actors in our universe?
Yeah, it looks exactly like like that's what you're saying
Yeah, they do a split-screen Brad Pitt and Brad Pitt like you look but you look hold on a second
And they're like, oh man, George Clooney
And Julia Roberts. Well, we're not George Clooney and Julia Roberts.
I know, but you two belong together.
Yeah, they light up the screen.
Yeah.
No, I'm with Andy Garcia, but not Andy Garcia, obviously.
No, it's not.
It's a guy who looks like him.
Now, do you remember when the local casino
at Plaza of Nations opened and they would, I feel like they would hand out
decks of used cards.
With a drill hole in them?
With a drill hole in them.
And it would be like advertising for the club.
Yeah, I think the only way I've ever got cards,
I don't think I've ever bought the deck of cards.
Oh, I do.
You bought, I don't know, I thought they just appeared.
Yeah, they just appear at a cabin. Yeah. They're just in and it's several decks put together
and there's always a couple extra cards so they don't fit neatly into the pack. So the
packs ripping a little bit. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And you have to go every time you play
with your family, you have to go through to make sure they have every single card. I was
a bicycle. It's got to be number one.
Bicycle is the name.
Another two in the car naked naked hot men cards.
Oh yes that's right.
Bicycle is the yeah it's got name one other and it's I mean imagine if you went to the
bike shop and you or in the main brand was cards.
Imagine. Just imagine.
To be the number two card company behind bicycle,
oh, they must be so mad.
They also probably have something
that distinguishes them.
Distinguishes.
Distinguishes.
What's distinguishes, Josh?
Is this the part where we talk, baby talk?
Yeah.
Eddie, when you are. Yeah
Well, they have to have something that distinguishes them 53 cards
But like maybe it's got like a better grip of card for shuffling or oh
What are magicians use do they use bicycle or do they use special magic cards? Let's take a call from a magician. Oh
Hi, are you the same guy from before? Oh
Wait pain Pain is that you? Oh Oh hi, are you the same guy from before? What are your thoughts on eating ass?
Yeah, wouldn't you like to know?
It's the topic of the day. The topic of the day is hey, are you a magician? What are the top cards apparently?
Why this shows been on the air so many years. Christine Borland, who you've had on the show before, used to hang around the magic
shop in Metro Town.
This is a true story.
So I feel like if we, I'll give her a call after this and find out.
She'll know.
Yeah. Yeah. Why did she hang around the magic store? She was into magicians, I think give her a call after this and find out. She'll know. Yeah.
Yeah.
Why did she hang around the Magister?
She was into magicians, I think.
Did she want to be a magician?
That's a great question.
Okay, I Googled playing cards.
First of all, you can get Hello Kitty playing cards.
It knows your algorithm now,
because you searched Hello Kitty.
I mean, where would it pick up my voice?
But then this from r slash playing cards,
what playing card brands are most popular on Reddit?
And, oh, the top comment, I would fancy a guess.
Oh, this is totally someone on r slash playing cards.
Top of the morning.
I would fancy a guess that casinos still most commonly use B branded.
B.
Is that short for bicycle?
Or aristocrat branded USPCC decks
as a performing magician.
I will always use standard rider backs.
I believe that's a condom brand.
Yeah.
So we just heard about three new brands.
Is the next comment somebody saying
disrespectfully or a dumb ass?
The next comment somebody saying disrespectfully you're a dumbass?
Next comment, Phoenix is not owned by Cartamundi or USPCC.
It is designed and owned by a company called Card Shark
run by Christian Schenck.
Oh, Christian Schenck.
Of course.

You're just learning that now?
Hoof.
Yeah, all these callers, they're listening live.
Next thing you know,
they tell me that that's just Graham doing a voice.
What?
What was it?
Last Monday, you were supposed to be on it on Thursday.
Last Monday, I woke up with a sore throat.
He had a sore throat and you're like,
this is either gonna go away
and I'm totally gonna forget I had a sore throat.
Yeah. Or option B.
Tomorrow I'm gonna be worse.
And Monday, it went away.
Yeah. Tuesday it came back.
Oh shit. The very next day.
Like the cat from the song.
And then we thought you were a go.
And then I was like, oh, should I?
Well, let's see if this gets worse.
Didn't get worse. Just came back.
Wednesday, it's back again.
Shit.
Getting worse though? Not getting worse. Just still
beating up on you. And then Thursday morning. It's back and
it's worse. And that's when I was like, I took a COVID test.
It's not COVID. Did you have a nighttime sleazy? I did. Well,
here's the thing. I had terrible sleeps all week until like
Friday when I realized, oh,, I can take, I take Nyquil.
I love that stuff.
Yeah, it's amazing.
Nyquil is the best.
And then, so Thursday I called you and I canceled
and then Friday, oh, it really hit me.
And then Saturday I was like, yee, me, me, me, me, me.
Slept all day, woke up, watched the Kurt Russell movie.
Tombstone that you hate?
No, Escape from New York.

Well, hey, these things can linger.
But sleeping for a whole day is wild, eh?
Like waking up at 6 p.m.?
What's the longest you've ever slept?
Ooh, that's a good question.
I think.
I mean, I've been sleeping on a roadhouse for 30 years.
I think the, I'm trying to think the mean, I've been sleeping on a roadhouse for 30 years. I think the I'm trying
to think the longest that I've ever sleep was probably sickness adjacent. When you finish your
24 hour shows, do you have a long suite or just a normal sleep? Or mostly is normal. Yeah. And then
I get out of bed and yeah, everything hurts. Yeah, standing. Yeah, standing. Yeah. Standing.
Not for me.
They shoot horses, don't they?
Kind of situation, right?
Tombstone.
You slept for how many hours?
Like 12?
No, it wasn't solid.
Yeah.
I just was like, I'll go to bed
and I kind of drifted off and came back.
And this is Saturday?
This was a Saturday, yeah.
Because Sunday, big day, big day was a Saturday. Yeah, cuz Sunday big day big day for
For a guy like you guy that is a dad. Oh father's day. Was that this week? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That was fine
And did your kids bring you night? Well
Yeah, they brought me neck well in bed. Yeah, maybe breakfast in bed
But it's all green you talked about Father's Day the same way you talked about Tombstone. It was fine.
It was fine, yeah.
I mean.
Might not be for me.
I don't know.
You're not wrong.
Like, it's Father's Day for...
What is Father's Day for?
I don't know.
I haven't quite cracked it yet.
What's... do you guys get your fathers?
You call them, do you get them something?
I took my dad out for dinner.

So, yeah.
It was nice.
Where were you?

social media postings about that game. This is a game where
You can you go see our minor league baseball team
Yeah, and you bring your dog if you want, but there's no
Like you don't have to have it. You don't have to have a dog. But also like if you bring your dog

I was two rows in front of this dog with
Sunglasses on the whole game and for Crocs. Nice. I saw a lot of front of this dog with sunglasses on the whole game and four Crocs.
Nice.
I saw a lot of photos of that dog.
It was a very popular dog.
Yeah.
A lot of people just carrying their dogs the whole time
because.
Scary, it gets scary.
It's scary and also like, I don't know,
if your dog's small enough, you can just control it
that way. Yeah.
Cause you're in an enclosed space
with a bunch of other dogs
that might nip at them.
You know what would be a good photo op
is somebody holding a dog in one hand
and then the giant hot dog in the other.
Ah, but what about this?
Is a picture like that, but then the dog is in the bun
and then the hot dog isn't and you're like,
oh I put the wrong dog in the bun.
That's good, That's good.
You have a hot dog on a leash.
Oh, there you go.
That's a funny picture.
That's good.
That's fun.
That's fun, Christmas cards.
Apparently 525 dogs through the gates that night.
Wow.
That's a lot of dogs.
And you know, I haven't really seen it,
but some of those dogs just got to pee and poo
in the seats, right?
Huh.
It didn't occur to me, but of course they do.
You know?
Some people don't take those dogs out,
there's gotta be pee pee and poo poo.
Who let the dogs out?
Oh, also all dog songs.

And then, you know, dogs on the big screen all throughout.
Pictures of dogs in the stands on the big screen or just pictures of random.
No, well, every player who came up, they showed them if they had a dog that they
have their own, they would put them and their dog on the big screen.
That's fun.
When they're doing another one.
Yeah, on Labor Day.
That's how popular it is now.
All my friends who do not give a shit about baseball, which is most of my friends go to
that game just for the dogs.
Yeah. And it's a cat's night. Very unpopular.
Those cats, they do not like it. They all escape and run around the dogs. Yeah, and it's cats night very unpopular They do not like it. They all escape and run
The game's only three innings long
Just cancel it shut it down. This is a terrible idea. I'll see you next year. There's dog night. There's fireworks night. Not the same night
Oh, no, we booked on the same night. Oh, you got so many theme nights. Yeah, what are the other themes?
I think there's a superhero night.
Nice, that's fun.
There's every Sunday, I think is a
They say family day.
Yeah.
Any other day of the week.
They do an A&W, a root beer float day.
That's when I got to be there.
That's when I got to...
Yeah, then I was like, I had asked you if you were gonna go and you didn't know yeah Sally went
Yeah, and then but you weren't there and then we left after six innings. It was a school night after all
Yeah, sure and in the uber ride home. I drove I we drove past
You yeah, you're standing on the street holding a pineapple.
Yeah.
I've gotten into pineapple a big way, but a whole pineapple.
Yeah.
Cause I was, every time I buy like kind of pineapple, there's like this plastic
clam shelf and I'm like, okay, I'm throwing three of these away every week.
So I was like, time to three of these a week.
Oh, I love pineapple.
I love pineapple crazy.
I am pineapple crazy.
Yeah. Hey Graham. Yeah. Wow, you're pineapple crazy. I am pineapple crazy, yeah.
Hey Graham.
Yeah.
How's it tasting?
Dave, like a dream.
It's like cream soda.
What?
What do you, tell me how you cut the pineapple.
Do you just use a big knife?
Yeah, you just use a big knife.
You gotta cut off the hairdo.
And then you kind of, you cut,
kind of like the way that you cut like a mango.
Like you just kind of cut off the outside skin part
and then you're just going around the core.
That's not how you cut a mango, but yeah.
Well, I do, don't you do one side and then the other
and then do like a little, make a grid?
Yeah, but you're not like shaving the,
yeah, you cut it like, I guess I misunderstood.
I misunderstood, around the core, yeah.
Yeah, and then-
But do you take,
oh, so you'd make a grid and then you like scoop it out?
No, like you cut it-
That's what I do with a mango.
Oh, I always just do a grid
and then just eat the grid off of the skin.
Oh, sure, is that what you do with the pineapple?
No, the skin's too hard.
Yeah.
Yeah. You got to cut the skin off first and then cut around the core.
It's a lot of work.
It's a lot of work, but-
It's a lot of work.
You love pineapple as much as you, it's worth it.
Exactly.
How many pineapples you go through a week?
I have two at home right now and I'm ready to eat them.
I was going to say he said three, but he was talking about the clamshells, clamshells,
which is not a whole pineapple. I don't think.
Have you ever broken down and bought the pre-cut pineapple before?
Yeah, those are the clamshell ones.
Oh, I see. I thought the pineapple came in a clamshell. In South Telemage, I eat and
buy. No, the plastic. Yeah.
But like I buy them in the clamshell pre-cut.
I should buy them.
I think you would enjoy them.
But how do you know if it's fresh?
That's a very good question.
Or if it's like ripe?
It's your, the top, the hairdo.
That's if it smells sweet, that's where you wanna be.
The smell test.
Yeah. Like, that's the same thing to be smell test. Yeah, I like
That's the same thing with peaches if they smell ripe, they're ripe. Yeah, but I still give them a little squeeze. Yeah. Yeah
Yeah, I
Had the same thing with cantaloupe is like, how do you find a good cantaloupe?
Same thing you go to where the stem would be give that a sniff. It smells like fruity. You're in the zone
Oh, it's
Kyle's take on fruit?
Kyle's giving us a weird look.
This is just a lot of, I tend to eat fruits that don't take a lot of work to get.
What kind of, what are we talking?
Berries?
Strawberries.
Strawberries, blueberries, bananas.
I know that's the extent of peeling bananas as far as I go from manual labor to get a
fruit in my body.
Yeah, would you go blueberry picking?
Yeah.
For like a fun Saturday afternoon kind of activity?
Sure, do they do strawberry picking around here?
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
What berry pickings are where.
But like, I know that we grow tons of blueberries
around here, but I don't know if you can go
as like a tourist, like, there's a big like apple picking thing in the East.
Yes.
Yes.
Growing up in Ontario, strawberry picking.
You go in the fall and you put on your flannel shirt.
Yeah.
Guys, are you kind of missing your final shirts a little bit?
Like, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I just like, I don't know.
I just thought about this morning, like gonna be a couple of months without you boys. It's gonna be
many months. Yeah, it's gonna be a hot one. Like how many years when do you think when do you
think you get back in flannel? Uh,
That's a back in black. I think probably mid to late September.
Do you think that's early?
I think November.
Now, Graham, you're wearing a hoodie today.
I think you could have worn a flannel.
I could have worn a flannel today, but you know what?
No hood.
And it's rainy out there.
Okay.
I got to have the option.
The hood protects you from the rain.
It doesn't soak it up?
It does, but I'm not going out in the pouring rain.
I'm in it for the drizzle, you know?
Like Snoop Dogg.
I got it for the drizzle.
I, yeah.
What's your go-to fruit?
What's your favorite?
Oh, my favorite is mango, but they're, you know.
I hear you cut it like a pineapple.
I guess so.
I cut it into two hemispheres.
Yeah, two hemispheres, yeah. And and I grit it and then I take the remaining
Undercut bits and I cut those off and then I suck on the yeah suck it on the pits the best and then but the problem
With mango well, I'm realizing it's now the strength of mango is if it's too expensive like sometimes it's super cheap
Yeah, sometimes it's like four for four dollars. Yeah and then when it's super cheap that means they're good.
If they're expensive if it's like five dollars for a mango that means there's
not a lot of mangoes around because they're not in season. Yeah. So wait for
them to be a good price and then yeah yum yum. The one that I've been told and
have had and were phenomenal is they're called Pakistani
honey mangoes.
They have a very short period of time that you can get them.
It's like three weeks in August or something like that.
You can get them in there.
Oh, heavenly.
Yeah, I'm a big I love all of God's fruits.
What fruit do you like?
No, thanks.
Oh, what fruit do I like oh what fruit do I like no thanks I mean I'm
anything like too squishy like anything that's all like oh like what's the thing
I'm trying to think of the one that's kind of spiky what's that one and it's
white inside you know oh well dragon fruit no not dragon fruit but dragon
fruit it's kind of flavorless. Yeah.
This is, what the hell?
Are you thinking like papaya?
No, it's like, it's got like, it's got spring, like.
Oh, durian.
Durian, yeah.
Yeah, I don't know, I don't even fuck with that.
Yeah, no way.
Isn't it the one that's really smelly?
Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah, right?
Some people love it though.
I know it's like, there's like certain flights out of Asia
where it's banned because people would bring them on
and eat them on the flight. They bring a durian on the plane
That's all things used as a weapon that thing when I went to
Vietnam there were signs in all the hotel lobbies that you couldn't bring it in couldn't bring in during huh?
It's a whole thing. I got it
Yeah, yeah, we buy the pre-cut
Pineapples because I don't know how it seems too cumbersome to do it.
But also.
It seems like something you'd be really good at.
Oh, thanks.
Chopping up a pineapple.
Guy who has visited the emergency room
numerous times for cutting himself.
But it's, you buy it at the store
and the lighting in the store is weird.
And you're like, is this yellow enough? And you get it home and it's all white. It at the store and the lighting in the store is weird. And you're like, is this yellow enough?
And you get a home and it's all white.
It's white and terrible.
Yeah.
It's a, it's not a science, you know, it's, it's an art.
Figure out what, cause like, I don't know.
I haven't been buying, I would buy chunks of, uh, melon in a plastic clam shell.
So like trying to discover just melon off the shelf.
Why? I don't know. I'm buying pre-cut fruit that's like height of luxury I know that's why I don't have
pre-cut fruit what about what do you consider it pre-cut fruit if it's a if
it's watermelon that's in the triangles like still attached to the rind. Oh yeah, that you have to kind of figure out what size of slice I'm getting like that kind of.
Yeah, I guess that's pre-cut by definition, but it's not the one where it's like cubes.
No, watermelon cubes? Try and keep me away.
Put them in the freezer and then put them in the blender and you got yourself a nice little
put them in the freezer and then put them in the blender and you got yourself a nice little,
add a little bit of alcohol.
Yeah, do a quick spin off the shoulder.
What are the big moves, Kyle?
The 360 behind the back.
As a bartender, what's the most annoying drink
you've had to make?
It's usually just, it would be anything
when you're busy as hell.
So mojitos are kind of annoying when you're really busy.
Mm-hmm.
Just gotta muddle.
You gotta muddle.
Yeah.
You gotta find the mint that's like in the back of the fridge
that nobody's asked for for a couple of months.
Right.
And you gotta pick off the leaves that aren't all wilting.
They're all black.
Gross and stuff like that.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's really, I think just people read your mind
of what drink is
the last drink you'd want to make and that's the one they order. Is muddling the most annoying
thing you have to do? Muddling is pretty annoying. There's also like old fashions with if you
do it the way the old fashioned way. Thanks guys. With a sugar cube that takes a bit of
time. The bitters on the sugar cube. In my biography. What's uh, oh did you ever have to prepare
absinthe with the sugar on the weird sword?
No, I've never worked
anywhere with that. Is it?
Absinthe in Canada is like regulated, isn't it?
It's like a different kind of absinthe, I think.
Yeah, well I think in the like
the late 90's there was like a
A scare? No, not a scare. It was like
it had been banned completely. Yeah, I remember that was
a thing. And then they brought it back around the
Lately late 90s. I remember seeing the movie euro trip was my first
Absinthe and they have a scene where they all start tripping balls and it led me to believe that absinthe is some sort of
Psychedelic when in fact, it just gets you really drunk. Yeah, it makes you barf and it tastes like
Licorice. Yeah, who would have thought the euro trip would lead me astray, but is it your trip?
DJ questions. No, that's road trip. Yeah, who's in Euro trip. Is it well
It's not the sequel to no, they're separate movies. There's a I know there's a Matt Damon
I'm a me. I'm using like a band thing. Scotty doesn't know. Oh, he's got a shaved head, right? Yeah
the late Michelle track You know, like a band. Sing Scotty Doesn't Know. Oh, he's got a shaved head, right? Yes. Yeah.
The late Michelle Trachtenberg is,
she slowly takes off her shirt,
but she's still wearing like a swim top,
but on the cover, especially the unrated version,
they would lead you to believe you're gonna see something.
Oh man, unrated cuts, that was a whole thing
for in the 2000s was you could,
and then it would always be one minute of extra footage. And it would just be like, uh, I remember that woman who
forgot to sign the release papers for showing her breasts. Well, we finally got it after
it was in theaters.
Or even like, well, this, we just added footage that hasn't been rated.
Yeah.
It's not, there's nothing bad about it.
The MPAAA didn't see it. So. All we just had to say was it wasn't right.
It's true by definition.
Yeah.
Long Island Ice Tea seems annoying.
Yeah.
Most places have a premix though.
It's literally just the premix, ice, and Coke.
Nice.
But then there are places where they'll charge a little bit extra and they'll say the 12-step
thing. Sure. Well, you're going to need the 12 steps after you're done with that.
Too true.
Too true.
Well, so I went to a game and I saw you eat a pineapple.
Graham, what's new with you?
By the way, we're coming up on 520.
Oh, shit!
You know what time that means?
Mushroom dropping time, I guess.
You smoked the other one in your hand.
So I went to Canada's North.
I went to the Northwest Territories to Yellowknife.
And that is, you frequently go to the Yukon.
I go to the Yukon quite a bit.
You haven't been there.
Never.
Well, just, this was, no.
No, this is my first time in Yellow.
Really?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Have you been to Iqaluit? No, this is my first time in Yellowdive. Really? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Have you been to Iqaluit?
No, and I'm trying to figure out a way to get up there, but.
Was it, did you do a debaters in?
In Yellowdive.
In Yellowdive, yeah.
Yeah, so it was there.
That's your ticket to the.
Yeah, I mean like, come on, let's get that Iqaluit.
Canada's geographic diversity.
Locals, yeah.
And you went there, what was the date?
June something?
Yeah, and just June something.
But it's like, now is midnight sun time, right?
Yeah, and it is wild.
Because the sun never goes down, it dips,
and it becomes kind of like dusk for a couple hours.
Back up with that sun.
And so it's weird, you can never get your mind around it
because you're like going to bed
and it just looks like nice time of day.
You stay at a hotel?
Stay at a hotel.
How are your sleeps?
Fine.
You got blackout curtains?
No, like, you know the thing in hotels
when they say like...
Brown out.
Pfft.
They're the brown out curtains.
What is a brown out?
Isn't that where it's like most of the lights are done?
Like isn't it like it's like a blackout
but a brown out is?
It's like a brown out is when you kind of remember some stuff.
It's right before, like we're talking about drinking.
I think it's...
I think it was like, someone described it to me as like,
hey, your air conditioning doesn't work.
I think the three of us might be talking about
three completely different things.
Yeah, I think.
Blackout is a complete loss of electrical power
while a brownout is when you shit yourself.
No, it's a partial reduction in voltage.
Oh, okay, so everything's on but low.
I was talking about drinking.
Yeah.
There's no brown out.
A brown out is right before you black out.
Wow, I need to stop drinking.
No, don't ever.
Get muddling, I say.
So after recording, I was there with a very funny comedian named Lisa Baker.
She's from Newfoundland and she's brassy as all get out.
Oh yeah.
Oh yeah, that's kind of a dame.
First of all, as a vegetarian fella, very little for you up there, yellow knife.
Well, because nothing grows up there, is that right?
Yeah, so it's a lot of bison.
Yeah, so you went there, you went through security
and they opened your bag and it was just pineapples.
Just pineapples and just loose lettuce.
And you can't bring a pineapple out of flight,
it could be a weapon.
That's true, it could be, I had all sorts of stuff in there.
So just went, I got nachos.
I had nachos and then Domino's pizza.
That was kind of my on the menu for that weekend.
Domino's in Yellowstone.
Yeah.
Nice.
I know, not Panago though.
I saw to see if they had Panago.
What is the size of this place?
The population.
It is 30,000 ish.
Maybe 30 to 50,000.
I bet a lot of people recognize each other's cars up there.
Oh my God.
And there's, you know, there's characters up there.
People running from the law, people hiding from the law.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
From the Earps.
The long arm of the Earps.
Yeah.
But Lisa had been there many times as a touring comedian, said like, okay, after the show,
we're going to go to a place called Harley's, which is a strip club.
Okay.
She said it's the safest place in town because they have bouncers.
And any other bar we'd be showing up as strangers in town and maybe that wouldn't be so.
Oh, interesting.
And the bouncers are kind of like coolers, right?
Not these guys, they escalate.
Oh yeah?
Yeah.
Yeah.
But we showed up there and we're having a drink and then-
You get called a varmint?
Yeah, and somebody was spitting at us, platoon.
And when I came in the piano, I was like,
blink, blink, blink, blink, blink, blink, blink.
It was one of my favorite movie.
Which was?
Tom Stone?
Escape from New York.
Tom Stone.
Tom Stone.
Tom B Stone.
Tom B Stone.
So we went to the club and then I believe it was Lisa who inquired like, when does the
show start?
And the bar turn was like, there's only 20 people here. She's not doing a show for 20 people. And Lisa was like, God, I wish comedy was Lisa who inquired like, when does the show start? And the barter was like, there's only 20 people here.
She's not doing a show for 20 people.
And Lisa was like, God, I wish comedy was like that.
Oh yeah.
Yeah, like 20 people,
I'm gonna do a show for 20 people.
Yeah, so she said, if you pool your money for $200,
she'll do a show for you.
Otherwise come back when it's full.
And then we went out on the patio,
very few surf clubs have a patio. So this was-
What time of day was this?
I couldn't tell.
What did it matter?
I think we're talking like 8 to 10-ish.
Coming in and out of a strip club with full sun out is an interesting vibe.
It was interesting. And all the windows had like posters over them to create the-
Not browned out.
No, these were lots of pictures of ladies on motorcycles.
I see, I see, like, tin foil on windows.
Yes.
I guess aluminum foil.
Do we still use tin for foil?
That's a great question.
But then I heard the music starting up and I watched it.
Awesome Sugar Man! It wasn't that, but it was that vibe. I heard the music starting up and I
It wasn't that but it was that vibe yeah, what if it was all dog related songs
She gave she was mostly country songs, okay and
Just one stripper one stripper cuz there's only tiny little stage. And you wouldn't know. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But like the times I've been, and it's been.
Oh, like a slew of.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No, this one, this is a one stripper town.
But like one at a time.
Yeah, no, this is like, they, much like a stand-up comedian, there's a circuit.
And there's different circuits.
And I think probably this was, would be considered the B circuit.
You wouldn't know that it had anything like that at all,
because without the stripper pole.
And even that, you wouldn't think that it was a strip club, really,
unless you were told this is a current strip club.
This is currently a strip club.
Yeah, last week it was a bank.
And she was great, and she made so much money.
Oh, I would, yeah. She's working this one table. guys, I think one of them wasn't going to get married or
it was just a divorce or something because they were throwing money around like fucking
wild, man.
Pete Slauson This guy's either getting married or divorced,
but he's coming out of money, he's going out of money.
Pete Larkin Did the stage connect to the backstage area
or was it just a stage in the middle?
Pete Slauson Just a stage in the middle?
Just a stage in the corner.
Oh.
And it had a motorcycle.
Did she have to walk through the crowd to get to the stage?
So she was in the corner, was she in the spotlight?
She did dance to Losing My Religion.
And then everybody hurts.
All mandolin playlist?
No, she could do, she was like, she'd be like a flag, she'd like a flag she'd be like horizontal hanging on they're great and
But like yeah, she was she oh my tip
It was like a stand-up show where you're like, okay
you stand at the back of the room and then when it's your time work your way through the audience to the stage and
Yeah, she was fantastic. She made a lot of money. I'm good for her and
It was yeah, and then it. She made a lot of money. Good for her. And it was, yeah. And then it wasn't, it was like the least sleazy strip club
ever, it was the most wholesome strip club
I think I've ever been to.
Any flair bartending?
No, oh, the opposite.
Yeah.
Like.
Well, about 50 on tap and that was it.
Yeah.
She was, I think I maybe inquired
if there was a gluten-free beer.
And she said, I think she said, what's there was a gluten-free beer and she said,
I think she said, what's gluten-free?
Is that when the piano player stopped playing immediately and everybody looked at you?
My fist is gluten-free, you want a mouthful of that?
I mentioned tits and I don't like to throw that word around.
Nope.
But I was listening to the radio the other day and I like to listen that word around. Nope. But I was listening to the radio the other day
and I like to listen to this contest they do every morning
called Alpha Bucks where someone calls in,
they get 10 questions they have to answer in 30 seconds.
They're easy questions and they all start
with the same letter, but your mind doesn't,
can't quite do it.
Right.
And the letter was T.
Okay.
And it was like, this is the food, or like a popular dinner
to have on Tuesdays.
Taco.
Taco, yeah, and then this is the chest part of the body.
And I assume they meant torso, but the person goes,
titty?
Titty!
Titty!
That's so far from the medical term.
Titty's like really, a little smoke on it.
I'm sitting there with my kids in the car.
Titty.
Titty.
Yeah.
Did that person win?
No, they didn't make it.
Ah, shit.
Did the DJs react to the titty?
They did laugh.
Yeah.
They also, it's their job to keep asking questions.
Yeah, that's true.
Yeah.
So this is one thing that whether or not,
if you've never been to a strip club before,
sometimes, and it always made me laugh,
even the first time that I've ever seen it,
is the strippers will have posters.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
Of posters and then she'll sign them for you
and I'm just like, where do these posters end up?
And they have to like, they sign them,
but like they make the guys like compete for them.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
This isn't just handed out like this is to get maximum tips.
No, but like everybody throws some money on the stage
and see who wins a poster.
That's just buying a poster.
Basically.
Like whatever size.
Whoever throws the most money in.
These tables are like getting, giving me the most attention or whatever.
The one time I, a guy in my dorm got one and he brought it back and it was signed by
the stripper and her name was Stephanie Seymour, but it was S-E-E-M-O-R.
That rules.
That's awesome. That rules.
That rules.
That's awesome.
Oh, there was this...
She was one of the best on the B circuit.
She had this great thing where she like climbed over a guy so that she was behind him and
with kind of like, she was kind of sitting like a piggyback kind of thing and messed
up his hair.
It was so funny. Yeah, knock off his glasses all crooked.
It was great, just messed up his, oh boy.
But yeah, the posters.
I was like, oh yeah, that's right, posters.
I forgot the posters.
Yeah, I had one in the back of my closet when I was 19.
Oh really?
What was the name, do you know?
I don't remember, but it was at,
we went to similar sort of club as you did,
stage in the middle.
She had to walk through the crowd. Hey, how you doing? Hey, how you doing? Yeah. And she
was on the circuit. This is in Thunder Bay.
Okay. Thunder Bay's got to be, that's got to be, maybe that's a sea circuit. Thunder
Bay. I don't know.
Ouch. She was, she had won Miss Nude Winnipeg about 10 years before.
Okay.
Yeah. Congratulations. Yeah.
But I thought it'd be funny to put it in my, in the back of my closet so that when I opened,
like, like a TV show where you open your clothes,
Yeah.
there you just be this nude woman.
Hey, who's the current winner of Miss Nude Winnipeg?
It's, yeah, it's a great question.
Can we get a call in?
Can we get a call in?
Bane?
It's actually her. Turns out. Yeah, it's a great question. Can we get a call in? Can we get a call in? Bane?
It's actually, turns out
anyone's elected.
Anyway, support your local strip club.
Yeah, yeah.
Very athletic. It is a crazy
what I have a few
acquaintances who dance
in the city
and they post videos of them practicing on the pole.
Are they strip employees or are they burlesque?
They are exotic dancers.
They're exotic dancers.
The answer is Leila.
Leila is Mr. Nude Winnipeg 2025.
Congratulations, Leila.
But the stuff they do on the pole is,
I would pull something. Yeah. It's crazy they do on the pole is I would pull something.
Yeah, that's crazy. Yeah. I've seen one of them do a Superman where they.
Are at the very, very top of the pole.
This was in Portland and they wrap their legs around
and then they put their arms out like they're Superman and they're flying
and she had a little tiny Superman cape on. Oh, man.
Great. That rules. She was using her whole legs to do her whole body straight
Oh
Superman they got a sense of humor what you gotta love. Yeah, she messed up that guy's hair real funny
Man, the human body is so funny
You know what the upper body's called?
Do you guys want to move on to some overheards?
I think we do.
Sure.

We always like to start with the guest, Kyle.
Do you have an overheard?
I do.
I was recently camping on the island and we, yes, yes.
And we were right near the campsite was two campsites down
from the jungle gym.
Okay.
So from around 8 a.m. until 9 p.m.
it was constant children screaming, running around,
doing all sorts of things. And I started figuring out all the different voices of who the hierarchy
was. And there was one voice in particular that was obviously like the king of the jungle gym.
And it was obviously the older kid who was getting the younger kids to do his bidding.
Yeah.
Yeah. So on one of the days, there was getting the younger kids to do his bidding. Yeah. Yeah.
So on one of the days, there was just constant screaming, you know, running around.
And then there was a pause.
And I heard, you can climb to the top, but the wizard's got to grant you three wishes
before you can make it.
Shit.
That is a hierarchy.
Yeah.
You got the wizard in your corner?
Yeah, apparently.
I'd say, but that's okay.
Grammy three wishes.
But it was like dead silent.
And then he said that and then nobody reacted to it.
Well, the problem about getting to the top is like, I'm a dirty rascal.
Yeah.
That's a, my keynote speeches.
I started out as a dirty rascal, but now, yeah, I, uh, I feel like I know that kid.
Oh, yeah.
The king of the playground kid.
Yeah.
And it's because you're, it's obviously kids that he'll never, they'll never see each other
ever again.
They know each other for the three days that the family is camping.
Yeah.
And he just like, you know, he's probably the biggest, I never saw what any of these,
they all started to blur together after a while, but I couldn't see most of it because it was
two down.
Yeah.
But he was definitely had, it was the asshole kid voice.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I feel like that's a position kids are put in a lot of time where it's like, play with
these kids that you don't know.
Yeah.
Go make friends with these people.
Yeah.
And kids on their bikes seeing how fast they can pedal on gravel.
Oh, yeah.
Always.
How much they can kick it up. Yeah. Or like when you brake really fast and you skid.
Yeah, that rules.
Is this a campground that you had to like,
you know, wake up at 8 a.m. and book online?
I don't think so.
It was outside in Nanaimo during like,
you know, mid early June.
So it wasn't actually that busy.
Right.
Were you in a tent?
Were you in a camper?
Yeah, I was in, I was in, I was there with my in-laws and my wife and they were in a
trailer and we were in a tent.
And it was, it was, there was a lot of kids.
Yeah.
There was a lot of kids.
Did you, because I know there's like a big thing of like campgrounds.
I don't camp, but I know that when like the campgrounds go, become available, there's
like a huge rush to book them online.
Sure.
I think those are for certain.
Maybe that's just the provincial parts.
Well, the ones that are closer to us, like Golden Ears is always popular.
Cultis is popular. I think the ones that are closer to Vancouver proper are more booked up.
But soon as you have thrown a fairy and the only fairy I know is that little
green fairy that I see when I drink absent.
He's the one from the Flintstones.
Or wasn't a Kylie Minogue in the Euro trip?
Yeah, the Baz Luhrmann, the Can Can movie.
Moulin Rouge.
Did she play a tiny fairy?
Yeah.
What are you, what are you compared to Tombstone?
Where would you rank Moulin Rouge?
I've not seen it.
Oh, next sick day.
I bet, but worse. I. Next sick day. I bet I'm bet worse.
I don't like Basler.
I used to work with an Australian lady when I told her that she was aghast.
She was aghast.
Yeah.
I get it.
I get it.
If you're on Australia.
You know what she said?
Crikey.
Shit.
That's like the meanest thing you can say as an Australian.
Yeah.
People don't realize that.
It's the C word in Australia.
They're free and easy with the other.
Yeah. shit that's like the meanest thing you can say it's not really yeah people don't realize that it's a see it's the sea where yeah they're free and easy
with the other it doesn't hit as hard yeah well that's why the if you my kids
report card yeah they called her that four times they're not wrong Dave you ever heard okay. Yeah, so I
The so the BC Lions our Canadian football league team here
How many of the Canadian football league teams could you name I think I can name them all there's nine yes nine
Can you name them? Okay, BC Lions? Yep, Calgary Stampede. Uhede Uh-huh Edmonton Elks. Yep, Winnipeg Blue Bombers. Uh-huh the Ottawa Red Blacks. Are they now the red black? Yes
They're a new are they the renegades or the red blacks and the red blacks, but they were a newer
They're the newish team. Yeah, Toronto Argonauts. Were they the renegades at one point?
Maybe back in the day. Kyle.
When did I even come to see them?
I think they were the rough riders,
because there was two rough riders.
Well, they were the rough riders,
and then I think they became the renegades,
and then they became the red blacks.
Okay.
So of course the rough riders,
the Toronto Argonauts and the Hamilton Tiger Cats.
And?
What am I missing?
Montreal.
Alouettes.
Alouettes.
The Montreal Alouettes.
You're forgetting the Las Vegas Posse,
the Shreveport Pirates, and the Baltimore.
Yeah, what were they in Baltimore?
I don't know.
Ravens?
Not the Colts, but they were like a horse.
Yeah.
Mustangs?
And this was an expansion into the States or?
Yeah, there was an expansion in the States,
of course into Shreveport.
Have you, this is very aside,
but have you seen the video of the guys,
the national anthem to O Canada?
Oh yes.
At the Vegas game where it sounds like O Christmas tree.
Yeah.
If you haven't seen it, it is one of the-
He's just a lounge singer that they got to.
He learned all the words O'Canady to O'Canada, but not the tune.
And this was before you could just like look up the- he couldn't go on YouTube and find the actual-
That's true, yeah.
He didn't know YouTube existed or that he would be on it forever.
Anyway, so the BC Lions, they like to start their season with a concert.
And, uh, last year I think it was LL Cool J the year before it was, oh, I don't know. I think last year was 50 cent.
Oh yeah.
The 50 cent and then maybe LL Cool J the year before.
This year was Snoop.
Snoop.
Oh, the, the aforementioned dog days of baseball singer.
Yeah.
And he, uh, he, uh, the other guy's probably anti-vaxx,
I would think.
And a big 420.
Oh!
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Anyway. It's not 620.
No, it's not 620.
It's 545.
That's how long we took a break for.
If you have like a clock running at home.
Yeah, don't use us to time an egg or whatever. So, anyway, the,
the, on Sunday mornings, I was taking a pottery class with one of my children and every,
Yeah, that's it. Yeah.
Okay.
We'll stop.
And it's over now.
But that the day after that first the season opener of the BC Lions where Snoop Dogg played
it halftime or pregame, a kid at the table next to us kept saying to his mom, he was
so excited.
He kept saying to his mom, I still can't believe I was in the same room as Snoop.
He's my idol.
That's like a real red flag as a parrot.
Oh, he's done something wrong.
Snoop does his idol.
She grabbed him by the wrist and let him away immediately.
We gotta take you some way to change this.
Yeah, why are you building a,
making a little bong in right, in the pottery class?
How do you know how to?
But what would a kid associate Snoop Dogg with?
Would it be more of his like,
I'm a dad, I'm a grandpa?
Yeah, probably like his stuff with Martha Stewart.
Yeah.
He's probably voiced a smurf.
19 crimes, his wine company.
He probably has voiced a smurf. Yeah, he's probably voiced a smurf, his wine company. He probably has voiced a Smurf.
Yeah, he's probably voiced a Smurf, right?
You voicing a Smurf in there?
Get a sizzle, my Frizzle.
That's as good an impression as you're going to hear today.
420 Smurf, what are you doing here?
Get off my chisel.
I like the fact that when I go to concerts going forward, I'm now going to leave going,
wow, I can't believe I was in the same room as the Rolling Stones.
It was a stadium.
So last night, it was just me, the Rolling Stones, a couple of other people.
Yeah, I was in the same room. Same room. But like even as a kid, I didn't think,
even the people I was obsessed with, like Urkel,
like Alf, I never was like, he's my idol.
I wonder if I went through a phase where I thought,
yeah, some pop figure was my idol, probably.
Funko pop figurine.
Yeah.
Like when I was a kid, I mean, Alf was a good one.
I think Alf probably was my idol for a while.
But I wasn't self-aware enough to be like, he's my idol.
Kids at that age don't know what an idol is.
He's my role model.
Yeah.
I loved him in Kung Fu Panda 5.
That's what he was really saying.
Yeah, well, okay.
All right, you guys. Well, that's the end of really saying. Yeah, well, okay. All right, you guys.
Well, that's the end of the show.
Yeah.
No, I haven't overheard.
Sorry, I was gonna have that out.
It's fine.
I got it.
I haven't overheard.
It's actually an overseen.
It was a poster.
And- Was it a stripper poster?
Was it a stripper poster?
And it wasn't, what was the one a couple weeks ago
about like a pizza pig out or something like that?
Yeah, oh, it was a poll, like a poster on the-
On a poll.
On a poll, yeah, yeah.
And it was the headline of the ad was
dating without apps and it was advertising a game of darts.
So go to play darts with somebody and meet people that way,
which is like, that was in Yellowknife.
Darts people are normal people.
Yeah, what's up with darts people, right?
They're a weird breed.
This wasn't here, you said it was in Yellowknife.
This was in Yellowknife.
A town of 30,000 people, you're gonna run through the apps
pretty fast.
Yeah.
I thought you were gonna say you run through
the dart players pretty fast.
But it's, I guess it was like, hey, co-ed, apps pretty fast. I thought you were going to say you run through the dart players pretty fast.
But it's, I guess it was like a, Hey, coed, what's a coed activity that
you can do in the North?
Uh, they're not going to have beach volleyball.
Do they have Uber?
They don't.
Do they have.
So they had Domino's. Do they have any other chains?
They, yeah, I think they had like the bigs.
I think they had like a McDonald's and probably an A&W and they had a shoppers
What's that you know that song no
That sounded like like a kid song
It's like a camp kid. It is. It is.
It's a kids song.
It's like a camp kids song.
Yeah.
You just name fast food restaurants.
I didn't know that.
Oh boy.
Dave and I planned it before we came in the room.
Yeah.
It was really good.
Yeah.
Now we also have Overheard sent in to us by people all over the map.
You want to send one in?
Send in to sbyatmaximumfun.org.
And this first one comes from Carlos G. in San Francisco.
Hi, Carlos.
At Bay 2 Breakers, I'm not sure whether that is,
a seven-mile costume brace party in San Francisco.
Okay, Bay 2 Breakers, not Beta Breaker.
I used to think that's what it was called as well, yeah.
You used to?
Oh, I've known about the Bay to breakers for a while
Yeah, something that I've wanted to do when I was in my 20s. So what is it? It's basically you go from
From the bay to the breakers. Yeah, it's a long and it's like can you swim at past the breakers and watch the world?
Didn't think I'd hear an ever clear. That was ever clear.
I almost said ever last.
Different.
But no, it's just like a baby.
You all dress up in matching costumes, sort of like the rugby sevens.
And it's like you just walk the race, quote unquote, a race, right?
Everybody gets shit faced on the way.
And you see lots of like people crying on curbs, fistfights, stuff like that.
That sounds great. If you're in your 20s, it's that. Yeah. That sounds great.
If you're in your twenties, it's amazing.
Yeah.
Did you do it?
No, I wanted to.
Oh, you still can.
You're still in your twenties.
Yeah.
Now tell us about idolizing alpha as a child.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So this guy who's got to do your dream
and go from beta breakers, as you said.
I'm on beta blockers. Are you? Yeah, what does that mean? Oh, it's rough
I'm on blue blockers. What are those glasses that I put over my other glasses?
So I overheard a woman
Who had a wine bag too many times along the course, asked someone the
following, Hey, are you dressed as the human version of Shrek?
Man, no, I'm not wearing a costume.
Woman.
Oh, sorry.
You got human version of Shrek is, uh, is, uh, he's his Addy.
Yeah.
He was scrapping the guy probably was wearing a vest.
Yeah, yeah.
A quilted vest over a tunic.
Abby used to work at a costumer
and they made, they did the costumes
for like a Shrek musical that was performing here.
And they made the vest.
They like put some kind of material,
they covered it in rocks or they put the material
over the rocks and then put it in the oven
so it like puckered in weird ways to look like Shrek's vest.
I love, there's like a guy that I see on my algorithm lab
that's a prop guy and I just,
he describes how you made props for
this one. It's oh it's so amazing. Practical stuff's really cool. Yeah. Yeah. Even that's why I love
John Carpenter. I love the have you seen this movie Escape from New York? I've only seen it sequel
Escape from LA. Okay. I like the thing. So you know, good. Curr Russell is good. He's good.
Yeah, he's great.
That this next one comes from Sarah from Philadelphia.
A new phone case.
Yeah, it is.
What do you think?
Oh, it's flashy.
I like it.
Yeah, that'll save you.
The little thing.
Sorry, ladies.
I'm married to my phone.
The thing where you fold it up and there's a little ring in the middle. A little ring helps you with selfies?
Yeah, you can also like put it down.
Yeah, you can do like a little bit of that kind of situation.
Oh, you know what? I'm going to read my next one from there.
Put on your cheaters.
My cat Roxy was outside on the back patio.
My wife was standing with the sliding glass door open trying to get her to come inside.
The cat refused to move, so my wife exasperately said, just get inside
you fucking cuck.
Yowch! Wow!
I mean, the thing about owning a cat is they're going to watch you have such.
That's true.
By definition.
By definition. gonna watch you have sex. That's true. They are the cocks of the modern domestic animals.
I mean a turtle will watch you have sex for sure. The turtle is trying to join in, but
it's just so slow. But the turtles, that's when you want as a lover. Nice and slow, takes
it easy. Well, speak for yourself. Flip them on their back, they can't get up.
They love to be 100 years old.
That's why the Canadians, they have their all cat night,
but it's called cuck night.
Cuck night.
Come on, bring the kids down to cuck night.
Come on, bring the kids down.
They also played the Lion King theme
and like went around the stadium,
like on the camera
showing people but I don't think the crowd didn't get it.
No one held up their dog like Simba.
I also heard that other places that do dog nights when the other when the away team is
batting they'll just play a doorbell to get all the dogs to Africa.
Oh that's so much fun.
Organizer of dog days here in Vancouver, take note.
Yes.
This last one comes from Sarah from Philadelphia.
I was driving home from a concert the other night when I passed a small silver early 2000
Hyundai with only one bumper sticker that said, here I go in my gay little car. That's gay. I'm gay. I'm gay. Beep beep. That's actually Hyundai's slogan.
Yeah.
I do like, yeah, I love the generation
of bumper stickers we're in at the moment.
Yeah.
Self-deprecating.
Self-deprecating.
Yeah.
Fun.
Yeah.
Like we're all stuck in our stupid cars.
Look at me in my little cuck car.
I'm a little cuck if they make
And I imagine they do at this point where they make bumper stickers that are easy to remove
I'd probably drive around with a bumper sticker. I think they probably make magnets
Yeah, that makes sense. Although my
Plastic I guess you could put it on that. Yeah. Yeah Magnus man. How do they work? Nobody knows honestly, I don't know
put it on that. Yeah. Magnus, man, how do they work?
Nobody knows. Honestly, I don't know. Like, everybody made fun of the
ICP guys. Yeah. But I'm like, they can't figure it out. I'm not gonna.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Definitely spent a long time on it in science class in high school. I know, but do you guys know how they work? No, no. I know North and
South get along pretty well. Yeah. And did you ever have to make a battery
from something spinning in a glass of water?
Oh no, maybe a compass?

And I was at a restaurant walking by a table

Yeah, but that baby sucks.
All right, off I go.
Some babies just suck, you know?
Oh my God.
If you don't know anybody with a baby that sucks,
it's your baby that sucks.
Oh wow, yeah.
I had two babies.
One of them sucked, and then the first six months,
and then got really good.
The other one, opposite, was an angel the first six months, and then turned really good. Yeah. The other one opposite was an angel the first six months
and then turned to switch.
Law of averages, much like magnets.
Yeah, and mango.
You need one.
As I understand.
Yes.
I'm gonna make mangoes into grids.
They're a lot of fun to eat.
Fucking mangoes, how do they work?
That's in the 2025 remaster.
Mangoes, what?
How do they work?
And it's just Graham trying to cut one into seconds.
I'm gonna probably eat a mango when I get home. I got three ready to go.
You got three ready to go?
You're going fruit crazy.
I am going fruit crazy.
Cause I like read a bunch of things that said,
if you wanna eat one, like two things,
you can just eat as much as you want of fruits and veg.
You just eat as much as you want.
Yeah, I hate when people are like,
well, apples are so starchy.
No, they're not.
Yeah, they're apples, fuck you.
Yeah, but they're too sweet.
What are you talking about?
They're fruit.
The fruit is the sugar is coming from the apple tree.

It's Tom S here calling in from Cambridge in the
UK with an overheard. I was listening to one of our national radio stations recently Radio
One on the weekend as I was in the car with my daughters and there was a phone in about the celebrities that you've named your pets after and somebody had called in who had named their cat after
William Shakespeare and the presenter laughed at this and said no way you can't do that,
he's a living legend.
Off I go. I'm going to say goodbye for now.
I could listen to that accent all the live.
Yeah.
I thought it was an audio book at first.
Yeah, it's that was smooth.
Holy shit, that was smooth.
So if I'm understanding this right, BBC one is like the primary thing in the country for broadcasting on the radio.
Yeah.
And their programming is, hey, would you name your cat after a celebrity?
And then if you call in and tell them, they're like, no, don't.
There's a, if you ever listen to in Canada, there's CBC world report and they'll do four
important stories and then one silly one. No, there's CBC World Report, and they'll do four important stories and
then one silly one.
Oh, that's fun.
This, this class of the kids in Halifax got together and threw a party with paint.
And here's your final phone call.
Oh God, I hit the wrong button.
Oh, now I hit the wrong button
Now I'm going into the computer
There's a monkey come out of monkey as a robocop
Here we go. Hi Dave and Graham and guests This is Jacob in the Seattle area with an overheard of the kids say the most obvious.
An older sister was saying to her younger, it's the worst thing you could possibly imagine.
And the younger said even worse than Brussels sprouts.
Thanks, bye.
You're welcome.
Uh, nothing is wrong with Brussels sprouts. They rule. They got, they got good. Yeah, they had You're welcome. Nothing is wrong with Brussels sprouts.
They rule.
They got good.
Yeah.
They had a glow up.
They did.
And I think when I was growing up, I feel like the only Brussels sprout offering was
steamed.
Yeah, steamed or boiled.
Yeah.
But then when I heard about putting them in the oven.
You ever heard about the Zincall roasting?
But they did a, they're different than when we were kids.
The Brussels sprouts are? Yeah, there's like a, they-
They've changed them.
Yeah.
They bred a tastier one.
Yeah, okay.
Well, I'm here for it.
So we weren't wrong.
No.
To be disgusted by them.
But, and my kids wouldn't eat them now, even though, no, they're good though.
Check this out.
They sell them at pubs now.
Well, a lot of times it's because they're deep fried and covered in parmesan and oil
and they're delicious.
Yeah.
But just with regular old butter.
Yeah, butter, some salt.
That's all you need.
But that's all you need for most things.
Well, I read that you can read as-
Fat and salt.
Yeah.
I read that you can eat as much fruit and veg as you want.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
What about apples?
They're pretty starchy. Oh apples are too starchy.
Bananas?
Too slippery.
Also, you know,
I don't know.
They're shaved like wieners.
They're shaved like wieners.
I heard you guys only eat food that you gotta work for.
Yeah.
Yup.
I'm not sweating by the time this thing pops in my mouth.
I don't want it.
I saw a video in my algorithm
of someone peeling a banana with a knife.
Oh, fuck. Oh, wow.
The way that you would like peel any other piece of fruit,
but it's like, by the end,
like there's a nut left in the middle.
It's the weird, it's the dark brown vein in the middle.
That's all that's left.
That's all that's left.
And then you eat it like spaghetti.
Oh, I'm just throwing it. What about that though? dark brown vein in the middle. That's all that's left. That's all it's like. You eat it like spaghetti. Oh.
I mean, I'll just throw it in.
What about that though?
You know, somebody cutting an apple with a big knife?
That's what I do.
That looks so cool.
You do?
Well, I don't even.
Don't they do that in Tombstone?
Yeah, that won me over.
I put apples in my kids' lunch
and I cut them in slices.
And for years, I've've been starting my day eating
a whole apple but now I don't eat I much prefer a slice I buy the slice yeah do you cut it
like an old-timey cowboy like I reckon I do yeah yeah I I've never done I can't I can't
eat apples I'm allergic to apples if they're're just raw. If you cook them, whatever is in the skin gets killed.
We're not having apples tomorrow, Graeme. You're looking at it.
No, no apples tomorrow. Sorry.
Not even a torch?
Is it just the skin?
You think so.
Yeah.
So can you have a peeled apple?
That's a good question. I haven't tried. Maybe I should peel an apple and see what happens.
Are you not my picky children who refuse to eat apple with peels on them?
I think that's the number one thing though when you're a kid with apples is the peel,
if you don't like it. I hated the peel as a kid.
Oh, I loved it. That was the snap.
Are you guys having dinner tomorrow?
Yeah, we're having a romantic dinner.
Yeah, just the two of us.
And there's going to be not a tort?
There's not going to be a tort.
Are you bringing a pineapple?
Yeah, absolutely.
I don't know if you guys are joking.
We are, no, we're watching a horror movie. We have a, I don't know, not a standing invitation,
but a, I would say three or four times a year. Quarterly.
Quarterly. Yeah.
Where you've in the past rented out a movie theater, is that right?
Yes, that's correct. Yeah. But Graham was there as well for a birthday.
Was that Mamma Mia?
It was Mamma Mia.
I think this is a house.
Yeah.
What horror movie are you going to do?
It's a movie called Until Dawn.
Okay.
And I don't know if it's any good.
Okay.
I saw a trailer for it.
Uh, Graham.
New old.
It's new ish.
Uh, Graham and his wife, Sally and I are horror fans, I can say.
Yeah, as your wife as well.
Oh no! Heavens no! She is roped into this.
What was the name of the movie we watched and it has like a super crazy ending?
I was the one with the head in the back of the head.
Yes.
What was that called?
Malignant. Malignant. Malignant malignant spoiler for malignant. Yeah already
at the very end of the movie the the big reveal is that this woman has a
Conjoined twin on her back and in her head someone got mad at us a few months ago because I spoiled sinners
Oh, yeah, right the spoiler on that. They're vampires. Yeah, yeah. I just spoil her on that.
They're vampires.
Yeah. But that's in the trailers.
That's what I thought.
I didn't even watch the trailers.
I knew it was a vampire.
But I went to see it because I was like, oh, this is a scary movie.
It would be impossible not to know that it's a vampire.
The whole thing is that isn't the cover is the same sinners.
There's vampires. Isn't that the poster?
Yeah.
But anyway, if it wasn't spoiled yet, it's spoiled now
I like that movie sinners was fun. It was fine. Yeah, it was sexy review It was sexy without showing any nudity that would be
The the most given out quote of Dave's movie reviews. This was fine. It's all how he says it
This is how you do reviews reviews on Letterboxd?
I don't write reviews.

I've noticed.
But they're mostly two and a half and three stars.
Oh, I get shit from people.
I give a lot of two and two and a halfs.
There's a lot of fine movies.
Two and a half's a fine.
Yeah.
Two and a half and a five is a fine.
