Oh, Canada, our home and grateful.
Oh, God, I don't know the words to my own country's national anthem.
I do, but I'm just messing with you.
But we're going to play later in the show.
Guess what Canada Day is coming up.
Yeah, Canada has its own day.
Like you guys have Independence Day in America.
We have Canada Day in Canada.
So I'm going to expose you to some Canadian stuff on this show, man.
we're going to actually listen to some Americans try to sing the Canadian National Anthem.
It gets messy and sloppy and dirty and funny, by the way.
Also, I'm going to give you, you know, some interesting facts about Canada.
I have a feeling a lot of you don't know a lot about Canada,
so I'm going to bring you up to speed to a degree.
And then we're going to play a funky, like, Canadian, like song that you might like.
And also, oh my gosh, this is interesting.
I'm a gay dad.
Yeah.
Wait, do you hear this?
I didn't even know.
I didn't not know I was a gay dad.
I'm a gay dad.
Yeah, way to you hear this story, boys and girls.
Did any of you know I know I was a gay dad?
I didn't know, but I'm going to tell you.
And then also I'm going to tell you about my, oh my God, my special, my stand-up comedy special as Carmel Corn the Pug.
We did it.
We shot it.
Wait till I tell you how it went.
Unbelievable.
Here we go.
Happy Canada Day.
This is.
The Harlan Highway
Sit down,
strap in, and tighten your diaper.
Come here, baby.
You're about to go down the Harlan Highway.
No!
No!
I didn't bargain for this.
Oh, yes, you did.
Chick-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-chall-main, baby.
And the creature from all the spayy.
Please don't stop.
I got to be an ugly thursday.
I've never said before.
This is the Harland Highway.
I hate you.
Well, that's the way it goes.
What do you say?
We get down to business.
Well, guess what?
Well, guess what, everybody?
I guess I've been keeping it.
a secret. Maybe, you know, I, have I been hiding it well? Turns out I'm a gay dad. There I said it.
I blurted it out. I'm a gay dad. Okay? I'm a gay dad with a black husband and we have a baby,
a new baby. Okay? There. What? No. Now, here's the deal. I'm not a gay dad. I'm not.
not even gay, but I got pinged as a gay dad.
I couldn't believe it.
Here's what happened, man.
So one of my very best friends, he's a black man.
He's a large strapping black man.
Great guys.
One of my best friends, I've been buddies with this guy for, man, it must be going on almost 30 years.
If you can believe it.
Man, that's a long time, okay?
One of my oldest buddies, and he just had a baby.
He just had a new baby, like literally, like four months ago, maybe five months ago.
And, you know, we both have busy lives.
And so even though we've hung out and I've seen pictures of the baby and videos,
I had yet to meet the infant child.
And so I called him, I said, dude, this is ridiculous.
We got to get together.
I want to meet the baby.
well, it's still a baby for God.
I don't want to meet the kid when it's 14 and crawling with zits and, you know,
has a switchblade or a Mercedes or he's all grown up.
I want to meet the baby.
Little girl, beautiful little girl.
And he goes, yeah, yeah, yeah, let's do it, mate.
He's Australian.
Let's do it, mate.
We'll meet, we'll meet a, can you meet at a coffee shop over by my house?
And I'm like, yeah, bro, I'm coming to you.
You got the kid.
I know what it's like.
Don't worry.
I don't worry about getting to me.
I will get to you.
I know one thing.
People with babies do not have a lot of free time
and they got to work everything around the infant child.
So I said, yeah, man, I'll meet you there.
So I head over to Beverly Hills.
A Beverly Hills baby.
Oh.
And I get there first.
And so I'm waiting on the sidewalk.
walk out by the coffee shop and he lives in the vicinity so I'm not sure which direction he's
coming from and I'm there for about five minutes and then I see him I see a I see a guy over
on the opposite side of the street at the intersection with a carriage it's my buddy and he's
he's got short-cropped hair he's kind of you know not not like hulked out but he's semi-muscular
and he's wearing a black t-shirt shorts.
And he's the first thing I notice as he starts crossing the crosswalk towards me,
I notice around his neck is this necklace on the outside of his black shirt
and it's got all these big round beads on it.
And when I say big, each bead was about the circumference of a dime, okay?
And they were colored.
It was all the colors of the rainbow.
And I got to be honest, he's been my buddy for 30 years.
And when I looked at him, I just went, oh, my God, he looks so gay.
Like he looks like the quintessential Hollywood gay guy.
And that's not an insult.
That's just, you know, everyone has a look.
Not to say that every single gay guy looks like that,
but there are some stereotypical looks for all groups of people.
And he just had that, you know, he had the way the t-shirt was and the shorts
and his hair cut, and, you know, with this thing around his neck,
I just, if I didn't know him, I just sort of went,
oh, there's a gay guy with his baby.
And knowing that he's not gay, knowing that he's my buddy, even I went,
oh, there's a gay guy with a baby.
My straight friend's a gay guy with a baby.
But again, he's not gay.
But it was just, so this necklace, and I thought,
what is with that necklace?
And I went, oh, yeah, it's gay Pride Month.
okay that's cool he's like showing support he's he's showing support for the gay community okay
that's not uncommon and uh and so i didn't say anything he he showed up and we went in the coffee shop
we you know we hug we're like hey bro what's up and i you know of course first thing i did was
look in the baby stroller there was nothing there no there was a beautiful beautiful baby girl
unbelievable baby girl just just a darling whenever you see little babies you go why don't I have one
what when am I going to have a baby so anyways we we go from there we greet we meet we see the
little bambolinos and we walk into the coffee shop right we go into the coffee shop he's got the
stroller he's got the black t-shirt he's got the the rainbow beads around his neck and I'm wearing a plaid
shirt and a blue baseball hat.
He looks like the average Hollywood gay guy.
I look like a farmer's whose tractor just careened out of control and ran over a cow.
And we get in there and we got to kind of jostle around to make room for the stroller to get it up beside a table.
And we weren't in the coffee shop 30 seconds and some middle-aged dude, you know,
looked like a father.
he comes walking past us and he stops he goes he sees uh he sees my buddy lift the the baby out of
the carriage and he goes oh what a beautiful child what a beautiful baby goes is this is yours and
he pointed with his finger he pointed to me and my buddy like indicating this is your guys
this your baby he says and i'm like i'm like um and
And he's like, uh, what?
And we're like, oh.
And he's like, is this your, your guy's new baby?
And we're both like, uh, what, let's say what?
I'd say who, you know, and we're just like, my buddy was as confused as I was.
And then it clicked.
It was like, oh, we were like, oh, no, no, no, no, no.
My buddy was like, no, this is, no, this me and my wife.
And I was like, yeah, him and his wife.
You know, it's like you answer more times than you need to.
we could have just said no but instead it was like oh no it's no the thing no he's got a wife
and uh i i'm a i'm a demented farmer and he's uh no wasn't it no it's not ours it's he's got a
white beautiful white back and we're just having a walk and they did no we're not gay fathers
we're not together we're not get you know there's a little bit of that weird you know
you're getting labeled something that you're not and when you're not used to that you know
I don't know how many you boys listening have been, you know, someone asked about your sexuality or asked if you were gay or straight right out of the blue, but it's kind of a, it kind of cold cocks you from the side. You're not expecting it.
But I got to say in the back of my head once I saw the way he was dressed, I was like, I wonder if people are going to think.
And so part of me wasn't surprised. And so I sat down and I was like,
I was like, geez, dude, that was weird.
And he goes, yeah, we were laughing about it, you know.
We had a big laugh about it.
And then all of a sudden he takes the beads off, the rainbow beads.
And I thought, oh, is he like self-conscious?
Is he taking the beads off because he doesn't want to repeat accusation at gay fatherdom?
And he handed them to the baby.
I was like, okay.
And then the baby started chewing on them.
And I go, I go, so what, what's with the colored beads?
Gay Pride Month?
And he goes, what are you talking about?
I go, the gay beads in the baby's mouth.
The baby's chewing on the gay rainbow beads.
And he goes, no, those aren't gay rainbow beads.
Those are just baby beads.
And I go, what?
He goes, yeah, these are actually baby.
They're just funny colors because babies like colors.
And I like, so those are babies.
Baby beads you were wearing around your neck?
He goes, yeah.
I go, well, dude, you know it's gay pride month, right?
And he goes, oh, is it?
And I go, yeah.
And I said, you know, we're kind of in the middle of like a lot of, you know, kind of gay community type slash area.
And he just started laughing.
He realized at that moment that he was the poster boy for a gay father and inadvertently pulled me onto his post.
as the as the gay father's husband and suddenly we were both like poster boys for gay father husbands
and i want to apologize to all the gay guys who might be listening for me being probably
the worst symbol of a gay gay poster boy because like i said i was dressed like a country
heck with a
blue plaid shirt
and I looked pretty
scraggly like, you know, I looked like
a lumberjack that had
that had gone to a tailgating
party that somehow
ended up at a log rolling contest
that somehow
was, uh, should be
leaf blowing somewhere. You know what I mean?
It was just like, everything
I was wearing was just a bad combination.
It was probably like the most
I'm not gay ward
you've ever seen in your life.
You know, I probably should have a chainsaw on my back.
I mean, this is how, but just the fact that we got pegged as gay dads.
So there you go.
There you go, gang.
Yours truly, just for the briefest moment, just for about 20 seconds,
I guess I was a gay dad.
Hallelujah.
Have you checked the children?
Hi, I'm Chuckie.
All right. Let's switch gears. Let's get away from kids. Let's get away from, you know, gay dads.
We've covered that. But here's something that I want to cover because, you know, July 4th is coming up.
America's Independence Day, right? July 4th, big independence day.
But what a lot of you pavement pounders don't know, and I'm going to expose you to some of my
a Canadian culture right now, if you'll allow me, if you care to be a little bit, you know,
enlightened, educated, that type of thing.
Canada Day is coming up.
How about that?
Canada Day, where I'm from.
Yeah, Canadian boy.
Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
That's where I'm from.
and Canada Day is July 1st, okay?
And Canada Day is the National Day of Canada.
It's a federal statutory holiday.
It celebrates the anniversary of the July 1st, 1867, enactment of the Constitution Act.
And it's kind of like our, you know,
like Independence Day.
It's kind of like, you know, you guys got kicked off, you got started, and so we got
started, bros.
Canada got started.
So, you know, so I thought, what better way to celebrate Canada Day than to maybe, you know,
enlighten you a little bit.
And you might find things out
about Canada that you didn't even know.
Roger, you know what? Can we cue
the national anthem under this?
Well, I read this important
stuff. I mean, come on. How about
a little Canadian pride here, dude?
Ah, thank you. Okay. So, here we
go. For those of you
that didn't know, Canada is a
country in the northern part of North
America. We sit right above
the adorable United States right here.
It has 10 provinces.
So what you guys down here called states,
we call provinces, and they're really big.
There's 10 provinces, and then there's three territories.
And, you know, they're like big chunks of land
where hardly anyone lives.
I'm not sure why they, excuse me,
why they called them territories.
Why aren't they just all provinces?
And everything extends from the Atlantic to the Pacific
and northward to the Arctic Ocean.
Here we go.
Covering 3.85 million square miles.
There's Canada.
Did you know that we're the second largest country by total area?
And the fourth largest country by land?
area? Did you know that? Pavement Pounders? Canada's border with the United States is the world's
longest by national land border. Yeah. The majority of the country has a cold or severely cold
winter climate. But southerly areas are warm in the summer. I'll say, man, it gets, don't be
fooled, man. In the winter, it's just a snowy wasteland up there. But in the summer, but in the
Summerman, it cooks. It cooks like anywhere else. It is hot as all asshair.
Canada is sparsely populated, which means there's not a lot of people.
The majority of its land territory being dominated by forest and tundra and rocky mountains.
82% of the 35 million people concentrated in large and medium-sized,
city, many near the southern border.
One third of the population in the three largest metropolitan arrows, Toronto, Montreal, which
is French, and Vancouver, which is on the west coast, these are the big ones, these
are the big cities.
Toronto's the biggest one.
You know, there's indigenous peoples that have inhabited and colonized Canada, just
like that has happened here in the u.s um what else
Canada went through a whole i'm not going to give you the whole history lesson but
there was all kinds of back and forth with the Brits and then Canada and then the Brits
so there's been this back and forth fighting and now as you know Canada is multicultural bilingual
the province of Quebec is all French people
and the rest of the country is English
with French people
spattered throughout
but the language of Quebec is officially
French
whereas the rest of the country
it's officially French and English
you see
you see what they did there
you know
so there's a little tidbit for
you. Um, what else can I tell you? Trying to find some, some really cool stuff. I could tell you some
Canadian celebrities. Jim Carrey, Mike Myers, Leslie Nielsen, Jason Priestley, Avril Levin,
um, William Shatner, Norm MacDonald, Howie Mandel, yours truly, Harland Williams. Um,
Celine Dion.
Who else?
Nellie Frittato,
Brian Adams, Rush,
The Bare Naked Ladies.
I mean, the list goes on and on
of incredible, talented people
that came out of Canada, man.
It's crazy.

What else is fun that I can tell you? Well, I don't know. I mean, you can go on Wikipedia
and you can go on the internet and find out about Canada. But, you know, these are some of the,
you know, just kind of getting it in your head that if you have any kind of,
Canadian friends.
You know, our contribution to the space program was we were the ones that invented and created
the big space arm that's on the space shuttle that reaches around and, you know, grab stuff
in space.
So if you ever see something being grabbed in space, you can thank the Canadians.
But anyways, you know, just a little shout out to my...
My homeland.
I'm a dual citizenship.
You know, I play the hockey.
And I'm a dual citizenship of the U.S. and Ken.
I'm born and raised in Canada, but then came down here.
And then my grandparents, my grandfather, was originally American.
So he went up to Canada, had my dad, my dad had me, and it's like I'm completing the circle.
I've come back home, man.
but I'm still full-blown Canadian and full-blown American.
How about that?
I got, I'm like a double threat, man.
But you know what, why don't we, the Canadian National Anthem,
the one thing about America is, you know,
and I'm saying this because I'm Canadian
and I've lived in America for 30 years,
a lot of Americans don't know a lot about Canada.
They don't.
They just don't.
And it's funny since living here, I've got Canada in my heart and on my mind all the time,
but I've realized since living here that you don't hear much about it.
You know, you don't, it's not in the forefront of the news.
It's kind of like, oh, yeah, that quiet little place up above.
Nobody really wakes up in America going, I wonder what's going on in Canada today, right?
And so I thought it would be funny.
I found a clip of American people trying to sing and get the words to the Canadian National Anthem.
So, Raj, why don't we stop playing this one and why don't we enjoy listening to some Americans trying to sing and get the words right to Canada's national anthem?
Play it, Raj.
I'm excited to sing the Canadian National Anthem.
I know all about it.
My grandma's from Thunder Bay, Ontario, and she sings it all the time.
So I feel like I know the very beginning really, really well and then...
I'm pretty sure I know all the words because I learned the song in junior high because I was that kid.
But I've sung the Canadian national anthem plenty of times.
I lived in Canada for four years.
I'm American.
I'm pretty sure I never learned O Canada.
Oh, Canada, our home and meets our flag tea.
You have those blue skies
I think cocky's a thing here
True patriot love in all their sons command
I don't think you should command anyone to love you
Sons and daughters
We do these badass stuff
I never really got why your hearts would glow
that seems like an E.T. related issue.
The true North strong and free.
I love that they delineate themselves as the true North.
It's like North America, sure, but the northern part, Canada,
that's worth celebrating.
It sounds like Game of Thrones.
You are the champion of all before me.
It sounds like a Christmas Carol.
I knew it was like something like
far and wide and about the, like, I thought there was something about the plains, but I couldn't even
understand them.
They mean that because Canada only lives on the far and the wide, there's nothing in the
center.
God.
You never let me down to shining sea.
See, they're talking about freedom now, like they're American.
The best of the bees.
You're really good at the winter olympic.
Oh, Canada!
And you have a French-speaking part of your nation.
Play hockey!
I think you guys might actually have it wrong.
Really the Canadian national anthem is Blame Canada.
Like, come on, like South Park we wrote it and that's what it is now.
Mabel syrup? I don't know.
Oh my god, I knew none of these.
I think I nailed this.
Does our anthem sound like a Christmas carol?
I'm gonna be in so much trouble.
I knew O Canada, which is more than I know for probably any other national anthem.
It sounds like a regular old national anthem.
Lots of God and stuff in there, so that's good.
This country's great. We all love it.
Hey, guess what, Canada.
We're gonna protect you all the time because we love you.
You're the true North.
You're really, really cold, and most people don't want to inhabit you,
but we will protect you from those urchins that do.
All right, thanks. That's a few.
thanks that's a fair fair thing to say thanks man and you know if any if any like caribou or moose
try to attack the united states from up north then we will protect you from those urchins up there
but i think a fair way to you know to get a sense of the good nature and the hardiness of
canadians you know there's obviously a very cosmopolitan side to canada there's a very
intelligent, smart business community. There's a tech community. There's a very cultural,
savvy community. But there's always that kind of homespun stereotypical, you know, hey, we're
Canadians, hey, all right on. Okay, body, sure, let's go have a cigarette, right? So believe me,
those Canadians still exist up there, but a lot of people around the world think that's how
all Canadians are. Where, you know, in fact, we're very advanced. We're very much.
But you get out, like in any country, out into the rural areas, out into the farming communities, out in the boonies.
You get more of that kind of, you know, homespun like farm a redneck type of thing, hey?
But somehow those people are, you know, as charming as they are, they somehow seem to hold on to kind of that homespun sense of what it's like to be a Canadian, you know?
Just like here in America, like the rednecks, even though people.
make fun of them and he's a redneck there's something about rednecks where they kind of hold on
to kind of the the grassroots part of america you know the the pickup trucks and the guns and
just hanging out and drinking a beer and having a barbecue and and sometimes it's not pretty
and sometimes it is but but regardless i think i think that part of a country's fabric is very
important because sometimes maybe a country can get maybe too cosmopolitan, too pretentious,
too modernized, too far ahead of itself. So I think kind of the redneck, and in Canada,
a redneck's called a hoser. It's kind of like a hosers, kind of like a guy who wears a plaid jacket
and a hunting cap and work boots and a hockey shirt. I think those people are important part of the
country's fabric to help keep it grounded, to help kind of.
to remind us of the simpler side of society and the more grassroots stuff and the, you know,
just the everyday kind of people type of thing. Not everyone can, you know, sip coffee at Starbucks
and, you know, have an, have a self, an iPhone, and, you know, so I think, I think all these people
in our countries are an important part of the stew. And so I want to play a song for you guys.
I think I played it a while back a few years ago,
but it kind of embodies that kind of classic Canadian hoser vibe.
It's a really funny song.
It's called Take Her for a Rip.
And for those of you that don't know what a rip is,
it's like when two hosers get in their pickup truck,
and they just jump in their truck,
and they just tear around in a field and in the mud and down a dirt road.
And, you know, it's just like an expression like,
take her for a rip, bud.
So without further ado, hopefully this makes you feel, get in the mood for Canada Day.
I'm trying to bring you people in to kind of celebrate my country of birth.
And I don't think anything can do it better than this wonderful Canadian song by some Canadian artists called Take Her for a Rip, bud.
I'm from the Great White North, right?
Like up above the States?
The big landmass that the rest of the world hate?
But we're like above that, fucking north, I guess.
The big patch of trees where everybody's bored to death.
We're just chilling up here, sipping syrup, playing hockey.
Before we learn to walk, we can cross-check properly.
Chess rocking plaid jackets, chainsaws, we operate them right.
Fucking A-right, we do, bud.
We caught our weight in firewood.
Every 20 minutes or so, smoke break.
And if the Leafs make the playoffs, I'll fucking jump in the lake.
Fucking buddy comes over to my place the other night, and he's like,
You want to go out for a rip?
And I was like, fucking right.
So we hop in the truck and hit the mud, and I was like,
Oh, fuck yeah, bud.
Just out for a rip are you butt?
Just out for rep.
Just out for hip are you butt?
Just out for rep.
Just out for hip are you butt?
Just out for rep.
Just out for rip are you butt?
Just out for rep.
I come from the land of the polite.
where shit's covered in ice and when i'm down in the states they're like you're too fucking nice
like yeah we got manners but fucking buddy still fight and fucking swear and fucking drink all night
like this one time me and fucking buddy are out having a dart and fucking buddy burns a hole
of my coat and i was like fuck bud because the coat was pretty new right and he's like
fuck you so i put his head in a snowbank and just started fucking feeding him the right left
like fucking boom boom boom got enough yeah and he's like okay okay fuck
Chill out shit!
So I pulled them under the snow and we went out for a rip.
Yeah.
Just out for a rip are ya?
Fuck yeah.
Just out for a rap.
Fucking right.
Just out for a rip.
Fuck yeah.
Just out for a rip.
Fucking right.
Just out for a rip are you back.
Oh, fuck yeah.
Just out for a fucking right.
Just out for a rap.
Oh, fuck yeah.
Just out for a fucking right.
There you go. There it is.
I don't know if you found that amusing, but as a Canadian man, it's hilarious.
If you want to look at the video for that song where you can actually see visually what these guys look like, it's hilarious.
It's called Out for a Rip, type it in on YouTube, and oh my God, if you thought that
the song's funny the video kind of shows all the stuff you were hearing and uh it's just
ridiculous so those are the hoser canadians out for a fucking rip are you bud fuck yeah bud
um and uh and there you go i hope you enjoyed that on top of everything else it's kind of a
catchy tune i like listening to it man so there you go gang you know i hope i didn't force it down
your throat, but I thought, you know, the majority of my listeners are American, by the way,
shame on you Canada for not supporting your homeboy more. How dare you? I'm just kidding.
You know, just so you know, like I said earlier, the population of Canada is like 35 million,
and the population of the U.S. is like 300 million. So you do the math. I don't know how.
But anyways, I hope you enjoyed that little glimpse of Canada.
I hope you can celebrate on Saturday, July 1st, on Monday.
You know, think about us, maybe take her out for a rip, out for a rip on Saturday, July 1st,
and then we in turn will be celebrating, at least I in turn, will be celebrating
America's Independence Day on the 4th, okay?
There you go. Happy Canada Day, all you Canadian people,
and happy Canada Day to the whole world, all right?
Take her out for a rip, won't you, bud? Oh, fuck yeah.
Lastly, I want to do a shout out here before we close down the show, man.
I told you about my stand-up comedy special Carmelcorn the Pug
that I was going to shoot a special as a dog, do stand-up on the stage for an hour as a dog
in this crazy dog costume
and I was scared
you know I've tested it
I've done like five minutes six minutes
in this get up
and it sort of worked
and that's it
I'd only tested it about maybe nine times
and I was like screw it
I'm going to do a special
I got a crew
we had nine cameras set up
we had cameras on cranes
we had cameras on stages
we had cameras everywhere
We shot at this beautiful theater
We had 500 people in the audience
Oh my God, the place was packed
People were yelling and screaming
And taking pictures afterwards
And chanting caramel corn
Carmel corn
And I went out there and did a freaking hour man
I did an hour as Carmelcorn the pug
And at least it worked in the room
They were with me the whole show
Laughing their asses off
Thank you everybody who came
out, by the way. You guys are amazing. And the energy and the love and the laughter that you gave
me. Oh, my God. I left my special feeling on such a high. And we shot two. We shot an early one and a
late one. And both crowds just went nuts. And we had an amazing time. And now it's all up to the
editing. My crew said it looked incredible. I looked at some of the footage. It looks beautiful. It
looks funny. And so now we have to go into the editing bay and cut together a beautiful
caramel corn, the pug special. And I just hope it comes out the way I think it will. And I
hope you guys laugh your asses off and enjoy it. So we put a lot of work into it. And I was
just, you know, I was a little bit scared, which I like. I like being scared. And I just went
out there and I gave it, gave it my all, and I got to tell you, man.
So Carmelcorn's outfit is a blue turtleneck ski sweater with a wool jacket, dinner
jacket over it, and then the mask over my head, which covers my whole head, it's covered
with fur, it's a dog mask.
I am amazed I didn't pass out.
There was a couple of times where I had to stop talking on stage to catch my breath.
I was like,
like it was intense, man.
It was like a workout.
I came off of that stage and into the green room
and ripped everything off
and it looked like I'd been out playing football, man.
But it felt good, man.
It felt good to work up a sweat
and just give it and do that crazy show.
So we'll keep you posted, everyone.
You know, we're going to, excuse me,
we're going to go into editing.
We're going to cut this whole thing together
and we'll keep you posted on when
the caramel corn, the pug,
comes out. I don't know if we'll be lucky enough to sell it to a network or
Netflix or a showtime, but like I promised you guys, even if nobody buys it, I'm going
to release it digitally and you can buy it and enjoy it and hopefully it makes everyone
laugh. So there you go. There you go, folks. Again, thank you to everyone who came out. Bless
you. Thank you. You made a difference. It was so amazing. So we'll end it there. Let's
