Hi, he's Dave Shumka.
And he's Graham Clark.
And together we host Stop Podcasting Yourself. Hello, Toronto!
Hello!
What a joy to see you all tonight at the Harborfront Center.
What a joy to see you all tonight at the Harborfront Center.
Ten acres of harbor something, and it's such a small room to find amongst it.
All.
Those sources that voted us best podcast.
WikiLeaks.
My mom.
Welcome.
Thank you so much for coming.
This is really exciting to be here in our finery.
What does that mean?
Our best clothes.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Well, we go, we like to put on our podcasting clothes.
Yeah.
And visit kids in the children's hospital.
Yeah.
And then we get there and they go, I meant my brother, my brother.
Yeah.
They're all like,
you're no Chris Pratt either, kid.
They're like, you're like
Chris Pratt before he got buff.
Still
pretty good.
You know, I heard his wife likes him with a little extra meat on his bones.
Yeah, but what type of meat?
Oh, rib meat.
You know what I mean?
Because he's not a skinny man.
Oh, yeah, now he's skin and bones.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, we're praying for Chris Pratt, you guys.
Oh.
Yeah, what happens in that next Jurassic Park that he loses so much weight?
Well, he's stranded on Jurassic Island or whatever it's called.
And there's not a drop to drink.
What dinosaurs will they wow us with in this next sequel?
Oh, boy.
Haven't we seen all of the dinosaurs?
There's going to be the, not the mama dinosaur.
Oh, so cute.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Do you know it's the same voice as Elmo?
Oh, that, whatever his name is.
Kevin Clash?
Yeah, Kevin Clash.
Didn't he have some legal problems?
He had some legal problems, didn't he? Look, we could litigate
Kevin Clash's
whatever he did over and
over tonight, but that's not what we're here for.
I mean, unless that's what you guys
are into.
We don't remember. We think it was something with kids.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I don't want
to talk about it anymore.
What band did they say was playing outside?
They said there was a band playing outside after.
Is that right?
Or was there a band playing outside before the show?
Somebody sent me a photo that said,
this is what's happening outside.
And it was a band.
But I don't know if it was a band I was supposed to know.
Maybe it was the Tea Party.
Anyways,
it's good to be here
in Toronto.
Yeah, that's where
we are.
Dave, you just flew in
last night.
Yeah, it was great.
And then they got airplanes day and night here.
Yeah, oh, that's true.
The big city.
In Vancouver, we only have them in the afternoon.
Yeah.
Sorry, guys.
The moon's coming out.
We're spooked by it.
Our pilots are all afraid of the dark.
Yeah, our pilots are all afraid of werewolves.
28 days a month.
I like being in Toronto because you don't watch A Handmaid's Tale.
No, wait a minute.
It's not like a show, though.
It's a mini-series, right?
It's a show.
It's a show?
It's a show.
And they shoot it here.
Okay.
But it's not the here that you recognize.
It's like, this is shot in Toronto because it looks off.
Yeah.
But it's not like Toronto stuff doesn't happen to the handmaids.
Right.
They don't meet.
Oh, I thought we were going to meet at this Jack Astor's.
But we're going to meet at the one three blocks from here.
When they have handmade meetups.
Yeah.
And you said backstage, you were like, they shoot the handmaid's tale here.
And I was like, you know who else they shoot here?
Rookie Blue.
So who's got the better?
Who's your favorite rookie from Rookie Blue?
Jamie.
Oh, she's tough but fair.
Yeah.
With her superiors?
I don't know.
Now, is Jack Astor from Toronto?
Is that Toronto born and raised?
There's a lot of local pride for it.
Yeah, because I remember going to it in Alberta,
and the big thing was that the waiters wrote their names
on the paper that was on the table.
And then I was like,
well, it's not going to get better than that.
The meals peaked
very early.
My name's Jamie. I'm a rookie.
Well, as you know, I call Toronto Mr. Sub Country.
Yeah.
And I have been to Mr. Sub three times since I've been here.
Why?
I don't know why.
To prove a point?
Yeah, I guess.
Are you doing a Morgan Spurlock documentary?
Yeah.
I'm going to finally take down Mr. Sub.
If I go to Mr. Sub often enough, they're going to start filming it.
Yeah.
Or they'll just give me a franchise.
Boy, you like Mr. Sub.
So Mr. Sub has a couple ingredients that you can't get at Subway.
I guess that's why I'm like on vacation.
So treat myself, I say.
I also have been to Subway.
So I've done both and I've done some comparison.
I'm having the time of my life.
So what are the things they have at Mr. Sub?
They got mushrooms.
They got pineapple. So you can make yourself a very disgusting mushroom and pineapple sandwich.
And the whole time they're making it, they're like, keep asking you, are you sure?
Are you secretly hoping to be the Jared of Mr. Sub?
Does that include the horribleness of being
Gerald?
The Kevin Clash of
sandwiches?
Oh boy.
Now that nickname makes
sense. Now I get it.
Hey everyone, thanks for coming.
Yeah.
Yeah, this is really cool that you guys all showed up.
Yeah.
What's everyone?
Who here knows the show?
Yeah.
There's a lot of people not clapping.
And who here are your wives?
There was enough people not clapping that I'm like,
are you guys subscribers to the Harborfront's
yearly shows? I don't know. Maybe it's a play. I don't know. Yeah, this is Hamilton, guys.
Here we go. How does a Scotsman, bastard son of a whore,
she's a Scotsman.
Did I mention that his mom's a whore?
She's a Scotsman.
And she lived inside a whore
and the Scotsman was a whore
and the Scotsman went quick.
What was that?
Was that from Hamilton?
It's based on Hamilton.
It's my own Hamilton.
It's Dave Schumacher Presents Hamilton.
I couldn't get the rights.
One Man Hamilton.
It's Diet Hamilton.
Oh, to go see a One Man Hamilton
where the person hasn't really seen Hamilton.
I mean, wouldn't it be the best?
It would be the best.
And just halfway through, it starts being about Hamilton, the city.
What else?
And Linda Hamilton was in Terminator 1 and 2.
Oh, boy.
If this was a play,
it would be like
the script of a madman.
Yeah.
Why are all the characters
talking at the same time?
So,
your flight out here was okay?
Was it okay?
The woman next to me...
Yeah.
Okay.
Okay.
Break it down for me, buddy.
She was, like, older than me.
That's impossible!
Flattery will get you everywhere.
flattery will get you everywhere.
And she immediately,
like before we even took off,
she was like,
gotta get the boss baby on.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And like stifling her laughs throughout the boss baby.
Cookies are for closers.
And then after that, she was like,
I want to watch a three-hour Inuit movie.
And bawling her eyes out to the fast runner.
Oh, wow.
Yeah.
What a lady.
What a flight.
Oh, what a flight.
Oh, what a lady. What a flight. Oh, what a flight. Oh, what a lady.
What a flight.
How was your flight?
Dave, this has never happened to me before.
Probably will never happen again.
I was going to check in.
I was flying red-eye flight.
I was checking in, and the lady at the gate said,
you're flying by yourself, right?
And I was like, yeah, don't make a big deal out of it.
Don't single me out in front of everybody else.
Well, why do you have that car seat?
I'm crazy.
It's full of empties.
Why is that car seat full of empties?
How did you get it through security and I said yeah I'm flying by myself
big deal
and then she
then she asked me again in case I was trying to pull
a double sneak
you're not twins are you
yeah
we just saw a ghost
it looks just like you You're not twins, are you? Yeah, yeah. Ba-ba-ba-ba, we just saw a ghost.
It looks just like you.
But I thought they were going to do something terrible to me because I was flying by myself.
I thought they were going to put me in a middle seat
like, oh, somebody's, some rich millionaire
is flying some garbage out in a seat.
Can you sit next to the garbage
and make sure that it doesn't spill into the aisle?
Because you're by yourself.
Everybody else will be hugging each other on the flight.
But if there's a pile of garbage next to you, you could hug that.
I thought it was going to be something awful.
They put me in first class!
Yes!
Yes!
in first class!
Yes!
Why?
I don't know! You, me!
I'm classy!
I know! Everybody knew that it wasn't
right!
Everybody on the plane
knew it! What is he, a
rock star star they thought
I've been acting entitled
For 36 years
I never get bumped on
Oh Dave
It was the sweetest
Oh my goodness
You sit in a little pod
I was in one of those pods
While everybody was getting on
And they were looking me in the eye
You don't belong here I was in one of those pods while everybody was getting on and they were looking me in the eye.
You don't belong here.
I was like, I know.
I know it.
Dave, have you ever been in one of those little pods?
No.
Oh, it's so nice.
They bring you orange juice.
You don't even have to ask for it. It just shows up. They bring you orange juice. You don't even have to ask for it.
Just shows off.
They bring everyone orange juice eventually.
Oh, yeah, eventually.
I really blew my throat out.
But like,
here's the thing. I didn't know what.
I was looking at the guy across the aisle like, what do I do?
I was watching him. He took off his shoes.
I was like, yeah, take off my shoes.
He leaned back.
I was like, I'm going to lean back.
And then the flight attendant came back.
You can't lean back before the flight.
I went to...
I once flew
to Germany
in business class,
which is pretty good, and they come around
and they bring you pajamas.
Oh, what?
Where do you have to change?
I put them over top of my clothes.
That's like the reverse
of what I've got going on tonight.
As soon as I get back to the hotel,
I strip these off, pajamas.
They're short-sleeved.
Really? They give you pajamas
why
I guess they were pajamas it was like
a sweatsuit
it was just like grey tops and bottoms
with a zip up thing
and you know
I'm not going to say no to that
I don't know
nine
nine
anyways it was the best goddamn thing that's ever happened to me Nine. Nine.
Anyways, this is the best goddamn thing that's ever happened to me.
What else is different in there?
Well.
Do the flight attendants act all apologetic, like they could be doing their job better?
Well, they're nice to you.
Like, you must have done something.
You know how they're like, would you like a beverage?
The rest of the time, it's not like that. You get the whole can of ginger ale.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And you can have as much as you want.
And you're right next to the
toilets and you don't have to walk past anybody
to get to them. I mean, the worst seats
on the plane are also right next to the toilet.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's true. And you have a lineup of people.
But the downside to it is
that you have to sit there
while everybody else boards.
Like, I don't know if that's something that...
People in first class can board immediately
or at their leisure.
Oh, yeah.
So you can go on last.
You can hold everyone up.
Yeah.
Well, I didn't know until I was checking in
at the gate. Did you get to
go in the lounge in the airport?
No, no, no. This was right as I was
getting on the plane. Oh!
So this was a complete shock. So did they
call you up? Nope, just as I was
getting on. And then when she handed me the
ticket, too, she gave me like a...
This is the whole show, everyone.
So if you are a subscriber to the
Harbourfront season, the tea
party will be here.
And you're just in and out
of Toronto. You're just...
Look at that moth
trying to corn in
on our stage time.
Big moth strikes again.
What have you,
what did you do
whilst you were in town?
The moment I got here,
I'm a father
of two children,
so I partied down.
Yeah, one person half applauded.
That's right.
It's no big deal, guys.
I went to a movie.
Yeah, right?
Yeah.
And then today, I'll save it for when our guest's out.
Yeah, yeah, okay.
Don't worry about me.
No, absolutely.
I just, you know,
just wanted to get to know you a little bit.
Normally we do a segment called Get to Know Us.
Yeah, do you want to?
Yeah, let's do that.
Do you want to sit down?
Okay.
Guys, thanks so much for coming.
We're going to sit down
and we're going to start the show.
It's today's political stories through a feminist lens.
So if you're not ready for that, there's the door.
I'm going to start that again.
Get to know us
People paid to come see that
Yeah
You gotta see it live
I'll be doing some
Flare bartending tonight
That's mine now.
This one was the one that you dropped.
Oh, boy.
What if that was all cocktail was?
He never gets it.
It's all a montage, but the montage is drawn out.
Dave, what's been going on with you, man?
Okay.
You really blew your voice out there.
Yeah, right?
Yeah. Do you want to open. Yeah, right? Yeah.
Do you want to open one of these beers?
No. No.
Which one do you think is less fizzy?
I want to find that one.
I know, you're legit curious, right?
But if you tap it a couple times, it's fine.
What's going on with me?
Well, I'm in Toronto.
Enthusiasm at an all-time low.
Do you ever go to a city and you come up with a funny joke about that city
and you're like, I bet a million people have already said the Toronto Blowjays.
Pretty good.
Yeah.
I've never heard it.
Here's what's going on.
Also at the airport, when I was in line, there was this young couple in their 20s and they
were eating chocolates, like these big bonbons.
Yeah.
And the guy was wearing a Gucci belt.
You can tell because it has giant Gs on it.
Yeah.
A real power couple, these two.
And Gucci and bonbons.
If you marry me, baby, it'll be all Gucci and Bon Bons.
I think I remember
the band that's playing outside right now.
Gucci and the Bon Bons.
So they were...
Well, first of all, she asked someone to hold
her spot in line, in the security
line, which is not a thing.
Yeah, that is not a thing.
I'm just going to leave my bags here unattended.
And then I'm just going to go.
Yeah, I think I heard something about that.
You can do that.
Yeah.
Can you hold all my giant liquids?
And then, so she went, left the line, and came back with her boyfriend in the belt, belty.
Yeah.
And then, so they're in the belt. Belty. And then
so they're in line
eating these bonbons.
And kind of fighting. Like he's got
his phone
out and he's like, hey, can you read this to me?
And she's like, I said I was sorry.
And they're like eating their
bonbons and they're just like
Can't wait till we get on the plane
We get some champagne
They were first class people
They were your kind of people
And the guy I saw
Had this big glob of chocolate
On his watch band
And he
He didn't know it
And he Kept finding bits of chocolate on his shirt,
and then he'd rub his hands,
because he had chocolate on his hands,
but he would lick that off,
but then rub the chocolate from his watch
all over his shirt
and not know where it was coming from.
Was this Rowan Atkinson?
And then at the turkey stuffing portion, it was coming from. Was this Rowan Atkinson?
And then at the turkey stuffing portion,
you'll never guess.
And I was like, oh, I should tell this guy.
Fuck it.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, right?
He's fighting in public. He's got champagne on the way.
He did nothing to earn your, like, I'm going to help this dude out.
This is a creepy dude with his bonbon money.
Yeah.
So did he pass through security or they were like,
Sir, we think you may have shit on your belt.
We can't let you through.
You have more than 100 milliliters of shit on your belt. We can't let you through. You have more than 100 milliliters
of shit on your wrist.
Which my colleagues
and I will determine whether that is a liquid
through a series
of taste tests.
Yeah, we're gross now.
Yeah, yeah, we're gross.
Now that I got this gravelly voice, I can be a gross guy.
And the only other thing I did today was I was walking down the street and I saw a woman with really short shorts.
Hey, you know how they say men think about sex every seven seconds?
Yeah, yeah.
Just like, how does that?
Wait, wait.
Go.
That's not literal, right?
Like, if I see a lady
whose butt's hanging out of her pants,
that doesn't count, right?
No, no.
Like, I wasn't thinking about sex.
It just was there,
but I didn't think about her, like,
butt doing sex.
Yeah, yeah.
Just on its own in the big city.
Like, is that
i'm walking here
because like is that just like some some study they did 20 years ago that's been misquoted this
whole time yeah or is it that i think about sex for like an hour and a half?
And then you're clear for the rest of the week.
Yeah, but it works out to...
I don't know.
But this really is the summer
of the butt hanging out of the shorts.
This is really like,
I don't know if that's who said that first.
Maybe it's me.
Maybe I'm the one.
But I've seen a lot of butts this summer. And it's me. Maybe I'm the one. But I've seen a lot of butts this summer.
And it's fine.
They're not going anywhere.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But I saw her upper thigh.
She had a face tattooed on her upper thigh.
But I only saw it for a split second.
Do you know who it was?
No, but in that split second,
I was like, is that Rick Astley
like cool hair
yeah
shirt buttoned up
to the top
see Rick rolls
her lovers
yeah
uh
so that's what
I've been up to
when I
uh
when I was going
through airport security
here's a weird
this is a weird thing that a guy asked me.
Whoa, yeah.
Real nice.
We were going through, and he asked...
This is not a conversation starter as far as I know.
I was putting my stuff in my bag, and he said,
you got some beef jerky in there?
What the fuck does that mean, man?
And?
No!
But you're a vegetarian.
Yeah, yeah.
Except on vacation.
Yeah, yeah.
And then I eat as much beef jerky as I can.
You and your wife have a rule.
Yeah, yeah. Five things you're allowed to eat in other cities.
Here they are. Counting them down from five.
Yogurt.
Number four.
Anything
that's bipedal.
That means orangutan,
chimpanzee,
a dog that walks on its high legs.
Number three.
Any kind of paper that I want.
Any kind.
So loose leaf.
Yeah, absolutely.
Full scap.
Full scap.
Damn it.
Number two.
You've been watching the race to full scap.
Number two. Bits and watching the race to Fool Scout. Number two.
Bits and bites.
Oh, yeah.
May Lee, may low.
Coming in at number one, a beef jerky.
All right, the jerk.
Anyways, that's a weird question to ask anybody.
If you suspect that somebody has beef jerky on them, don't ask.
But what?
Business, is it of his?
Did he open your bag?
No, no, this wasn't the security.
This was the guy standing next to me in line.
The guy at security didn't ask me if I had beef jerky
because he, it's none of his business.
He knows that.
Did the guy look like he had done a body swap with a dog?
He was like, he's still got that sense of smell.
Yeah, and he was wearing a leash instead of a tie.
And he was with a dog carrying a briefcase.
You're right.
This does check out.
What else is going on? Anything?
Here's a...
Okay, so I was walking down Queen Street.
Enthusiasm's back.
And, like, this is like any major street,
but, like, there's some people
here that walk real slow
real slow like they're walking
back in time
I don't understand how they're
getting anywhere
they're walking so slow
but I hit a real log jam
on Queen where everybody
was walking slow and I was like
what the fuck is the holdup
at the front of, and I like went out
on the street to look and it was a teenage girl
on a hoverboard.
Everybody else is shuffling down the street
because of this Yahoo.
I thought you meant that that everyone was lined up,
whoa, and hoverboard.
Like, back to the future.
So yeah, so there's that.
What happened?
I'm staying in an Airbnb in Chinatown
where I picked up these cool things and this.
For the homeless nerd, Graham is dressed like a maniac.
cool thing. And this?
For the homeless nerd, Graham is dressed like a maniac.
The guy that
sold me this shirt, he was so glad
to be selling it. You could tell.
When I was like, because it was hung up
like he had to get like a hook
to get it down.
Because every so often it would swing around
and the glare would get him in the eye.
Ground to point.
So he was very excited that he had somebody to purchase this shirt that he ordered too many of.
One.
One.
And my Airbnb is fine,
except when I went to, like, went to the bathroom.
Isn't every Airbnb fine?
Yeah, it's fine.
That should be their slogan.
It's fine.
Except when I went to the bathroom for the first time,
there was a bug I've never seen before in the tub,
and I was like, what?
When you went to the bathroom for the first time ever?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And I was like, what do I do?
And what is this?
I started drinking out of the toilet.
I was switched with a dog.
I'm the one who was switched with a dog.
Anyways, this bug.
So what was that bug's deal?
It was like, yay big.
What color?
Like blue and red. Oh and it was had like a lot
of legs is this a common bug out here is this no is it a spider man yeah it was a spy it was a small
he was friendly i remember that about was he in the neighborhood yeah yeah okay uh so then i was
like i'll just i'll just pour some water into the tub,
and then it'll go down the drain.
If anything, this bug loves the water.
Start swimming around like an Olympic champ.
So then I was like, you know what?
I'm just not going to use the bathroom.
I just went back upstairs.
It's your room, bug.
Toronto's an interesting city. It is. It's your room, bug. Toronto's an interesting city.
It is.
It's got a lot to offer.
Yeah, I talked about going to Mr. Sub a bunch of times.
That's written down here.
Hoverboard Girl.
Yep, I think that's it.
That brings us up to today.
Thanks, everybody.
And I've been doing a fringe.
CrossFit?
Yeah, I've been doing CrossFit.
Can't you tell?
I walked by a CrossFit place today.
Somebody with ropes?
No, but like right in the front door.
These must have been for show.
The giant tires that like an excavator would have.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And they just flip those over.
That's what they do with them.
They were just for show.
No one's flipping tires.
The price of real estate here, you got room to flip tires?
That's true.
That's got to be real.
Like, you can lay a tire down and have a nap.
Or you can go in and have your friend roll it down a hill.
Sure.
But does that get you in any kind of shape?
Not a hilly city. No, that's true. just roll it down queen and then the hoverboard girl just finally showed
up by somebody uh when i was watching that dumb batman versus superman movie hey oh hey
zack snyder here tonight um there's a scene where uh bruce way Wayne gets in shape by doing CrossFit.
He's going to fight Superman.
CrossFit's not going to help.
I better get my abs in shape
for that guy what has lasers come out of his eyes.
But like, isn't Batman always in shape?
It's not like,
ah, January 1st, I resolve, I'm going to.
I can't fit into that suit like I used to.
Or all these shots of muscle milk.
Should we bring out our first guest?
I'm dying to.
Oh, yes.
Well, our first guest, ladies and gentlemen,
she is one of the founding members of the sketch troupe Picnic Face.
She is a hilarious comedian and she has a book coming out this fall.
So she is also an author.
Please welcome to the stage, Ebony Rosen, everybody.
Hi, everybody.
Hi.
Oh, that's great.
Oh, thank you.
Come here.
You can sit here.
I'll move there.
Oh, I can sit here.
Right before. You can sit here. I'll move there. Where did all those beers come from?
Right before I came on stage,
just like a very gentle employee of the theater
came up to me and was like,
can you take these on stage?
They're really shaking.
There's around a lot.
I was like, yeah.
So there's more now.
That's very nice.
Hello, Ebony.
Hi, guys.
Hi.
For the home listener, they're beers that you brought on stage.
No, they're beers.
It's weird if you can't see us.
Now, have you ever been inside of this giant complex before, or is this your first time
down in the harborfront?
It's not my first time, but the last time was during...
Do they still do the milk festival milk oh yeah if you
ever wanted to go to a hot summer festival and have it be sponsored by a drink that you should
have thought for sure everyone should drink this here oh it's full of kids and it's 35 degrees
yes please so it literally is put on by milk i thought thought it was like a Harvey milk or, you know. No, it's not an acronym.
It's not like must island.
Come on, keep going.
No, it's just, is milk.
Of milk, milk, lemonade, and fudge,
I would only want one in the summer.
Fudge.
Yeah.
Fudge.
Hot fudge in the city.
Ebony, who did you see at this milk festival?
Oh, God.
Okay, at least two struggling improvisers dressed as a cow.
Did you come down to laugh at them?
I think, I didn't know yet that that was a shape
I was going to feel embarrassed for in my future because I was like eight, I didn't know yet that that was a shape I was going to feel embarrassed for
in my future, because I was like eight.
I didn't know yet, but I was like, oh, there'll be a time
in my life where I must also climb inside
the bottom half of my cow.
I haven't reached that part of my career
yet.
Why would you need two improvisers for that?
It feels like there's very little yes and
I guess we're going to go left.
Yes, and don't separate from me. like there's very little yes and. I guess we're going to go left. Yes and
don't separate
from me.
How long have you been an improviser
for? Oh, God. I hate
the way that question is phrased.
Okay. Was that
formative moment what
did it for you? Oh, yeah. I really
like the way that the back half of this cow is
like sort of inserting some fun in the legs
in a way that it's like
it's a true consummate performer
back there. But I remember
when I was a kid I saw a busker
doing busking things and I thought
that is the best
Oh for sure. Right? Yeah.
So like was there a moment like that
when you were a kid where you were like, this is what
I'm gonna do? I'm gonna be
a comedy person?
Or did that come later?
I can't stop thinking about this cow.
Neither can I. But you didn't want to
talk about the cow, so I tried to move it away.
But let's talk about this cow.
Was it, like,
fuzzy body? Yeah, yeah.
But, like, plastic udders?
Were the udders accounted for?
They had to be at the milk festival.
Were they lifelike?
Were they squirting?
Yeah.
Was this a black and white or a brown and white cow?
This was a black and white cow.
Utter is just kind of a damp wet in the summer sun.
I'm going to say it was sort of like a,
just like a plain cotton body with like felt black spots attached.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Nice.
Yeah.
I'm feeling this.
Yeah.
Well,
good night.
Um,
I don't know why,
uh,
I know this,
but,
uh,
like there was like a cruise line that did improv on the cruise line forever.
Oh, yeah.
I think Second City's on a lot of cruises.
It just, they're done.
It's over.
Yeah, just this week.
What?
They announced no more improv on the cruise line.
The cruise line was going out of business.
No, no, no.
Because of the improv.
I was going to say, yeah, that would have been my angle.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Do you know, would you ever have done anything on a cruise line?
I've never done a cruise.
Really?
I've never done a cruise.
No.
Never?
Because I came close to being on a cruise as a comedian.
And then I think they saw my act and said, because not because I'm pretty political.
Yeah.
I'm pretty political.
Yeah.
No, I just think, like,
they want kind of really clean,
really, really, like,
you have to entertain, like,
grandmas and stuff, right?
Oh, yeah.
And, like, kids.
And I think there's a lot of, like, I think they have a lot of, like,
weird preset games that you do
when you have to do.
The weird thing about Second City,
from what I know,
I've never done it. They're not listening. But you have to, like, you have to do the weird thing about second city from what i know i've never done it they're not listening um but you have to like you have to like watch old tapes
of old sketches and be like we will learn it we will do it they will love it so it's very intense
thing so they're doing like these sketches from the 80s on these cruises and like weird improv
games for like oh it seems sad let Let's do Mr. T Game.
That's something from the 80s.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's how you just say anything from the 80s, and it's a game.
And it's a game.
Have you ever been on a cruise?
Once.
And what was your experience?
Were you eight at the time?
I was close to eight at the time.
It was a big year for me.
Did you board the cruise here
after the Milk Festival?
I just want to zero in on that
one day.
I'm going to rest my voice.
You got a lot of fizzy beer to drink.
No, it was a cruise. My grandpa took us on a cruise to Alaska.
He thought, I'm not going to do it how regular people do it.
I'll do the cold one.
That's the opposite of a cruise.
That's a juice cruise.
A juice cruise?
It was a juice cruise.
Was it fun as a kid?
Because I've gone as an adult, and I didn't find it to be all that fun.
I found it to be quite disturbing.
Did you go on the Faces of Death cruise?
Because, okay, so like...
He went on a scary cruise.
But like...
No, it wasn't a spooky theme cruise.
Did you go on the Kid Rock cruise?
Oh, I can't even imagine.
Oh, it's just smell.
Like the smell.
The smell of the Kid Rock cruise.
I imagine the smell of the Kid Rock cruise
is how I imagine the one thing
they never acknowledge in time travel movies.
Like if you go back a thousand years
or like a hundred years even in time,
the smell is going to blow your mind.
Like they didn't have plumbing.
It's going to be wild.
That's what it's like to step on the Kid Rock cruise, probably.
Like, stepping into the Middle Ages.
No, it's like, picture wherever in Toronto
is where people on a Friday night are the worst.
Like coming out of bars and puking all over the place.
Where's that in Toronto?
So imagine you're confined on a boat with King Street.
And there's no escape.
Because people, they get on and they've paid like one price to just
eat and drink
unlimited. There's no, so they just
have a card that you scan at the bar
and so there was...
Wait, is it unlimited or is there a card you scan?
Make up your mind. Well, I think
they did the card thing
so that people at least had to
count how many drinks
they had or at least were to count how many drinks they had.
Or at least were sent a thing like,
last night, you swiped 72 times.
But there were these... Just a weird shame session you have in the morning
in your small cabin at the whims of the sea.
That sounds terrible.
Just like a sheet of paper under the door.
Yeah.
Also, we have some footage of you.
Kid Rock is very disappointed in you.
Dear sir.
Captain Rock.
I like that in my idea of the Kid Rock cruise, he is piloting the boat.
Yeah.
But he, well, he drops the kid when he's behind the sails.
Please, I'm Captain Rock.
Yeah, I'm Captain Rock.
There's nothing childish about the sea.
Thanks.
But I saw that, like, on the cruise ship, there was all these, like, very these very, they're not fancy, but they sell a lot of crystal vases
and fancy scarves and things like that.
And everything comes in a gift bag.
I saw so many of those gift bags filled to the brim with puke.
So that is what I'm talking about.
And you can't jump overboard.
You have to just be on this cruise until the end of the cruise.
And you know what's on the cruise too?
All those bags of puke.
They got to offload those at a port.
That's the part of Titanic they don't show you.
Small Swarovski bags full of puke.
Or those little, those blue Tiffany boxes.
Oh, yeah.
Ew.
Just a woman walking wearing a beautiful tennis face.
Holding a box full of puke.
She said yes.
So, Ebony, what else is going on?
Tell us about your life.
What's happening?
I just feel like so little has happened to me
since I last saw you guys.
Oh, but I went to D.C. last weekend.
Washington?
Washington.
The D.C.
Not the other one.
What for?
For fun.
What's happening to you?
What's happening to you?
No, we got a cheap flight.
And then I have cousins who live there.
So we stayed in a weird, empty, not ready for consumers Airbnb in Arlington, right next to the Pentagon.
It was so weird.
So what wasn't ready about this Airbnb?
Because I think I'm also staying in a similarly unready.
My family's gone to prison a couple times for real estate fraud,
so they may be doing your Airbnb, I don't know.
That sounded real.
Yeah, is that real?
That's real.
Your family?
Like you all went...
Grandma...
We're going to try you as a family.
It's pretty unorthodox,
but I'm a wacky judge.
We alternate every year
between a Jews cruise
and a Grinch trip to prison.
No, it was not ready.
How is it not ready?
There was no internet,
which was fine.
And then my cousin had put like a very fancy lock on the door
that didn't totally work,
so there's really no way to ensure that your valuables
were staying where you'd put them.
And there was nothing on the floor and little furniture.
Okay.
Like tiny little friendly giant furniture yeah. Friendly giant furniture?
Yeah, they got that kind
you got putting in water
to get it big
and they had to turn on the tap.
Oh, cool.
Yeah, sick.
I mean, Ikea's pretty convenient
with the flat packed boxes,
but imagine like a couch
that was a pill.
That would be so cool.
Just wet it in the tap.
Yeah, Neo,
which couch do you want?
Then he eats it and it immediately explodes
when it stands inside of him.
Yeah, as a couch bursts out of its stomach.
No, I didn't mean to eat the...
Neo, you moron.
Those sequels are bad.
Yeah, they are.
They are.
Those two
that made the Matrix
series, it feels like they might
have made the Matrix just
by accident good.
Because everything else that they've been given
to make
has been an unholy disaster.
I'll take umbrage with that.
Okay, go ahead.
Everything they've made has been great.
Point counterpoint.
Turn my chair, okay?
I want to hear you talk about Jupiter Ascending.
Yeah, Jupiter Ascending might be the craziest.
Did they do Cloud Atlas too?
Yes, they also did Cloud Atlas.
Was it Cloud Alice?
Yeah.
The woman named Alice?
No, no, no.
You're thinking of something else.
Anyways.
Yeah, Cloud Atlas is where Tom Hanks dips a toe in blackface.
Uh-huh.
Watch the movie and tell me I am incorrect.
Right?
Yeah, it's just a taste,
but it's still a taste that no one should ever taste.
Still too much.
But Jupiter Ascending, you've seen as well?
Oh, Jupiter Ascending is...
What is it?
It is...
It's Channing Tatum on roller skates.
But he's also a dog.
Yeah, he's also part dog.
He also has dog ears.
And Eddie Redmayne.
Is that his name?
Eddie Redmayne?
It's the rapper Redman.
Like, the Academy Awards acting it's the rapper Redman like the
the Academy Awards
should put
an asterisk
next to his Oscar win
and been like
but we
acknowledge
that he was also
in Jupiter Ascending
just screaming
like everyone
it just felt like
it felt like one
it felt like a super cut
of like theater school
auditions as a joke.
It was just people who did not get in.
But he just screams every line for no reason.
Or he'll crazy whisper it.
Yeah.
I'm whispering.
I'm an actor.
If you haven't seen it, it's on Netflix,
and you must, you must see it.
But The Matrix is so good,
and then the sequels were so bad,
and then everything else has been bad.
Were you into The Matrix?
Like, did you get it?
Yeah, I had a long leather coat.
You had the sunglasses?
Yeah, I had the sunglasses.
You kept cutting off the sides of your sunglasses,
and they would just fall off.
I tried to make friends with Lawrence Fishburne.
He wouldn't send back my,
he wouldn't respond to my letters.
What else did I do?
I slept in goo.
You did this a lot.
Yeah, I got my brother to shoot bullets at me.
But shoot it slow.
Yeah, yeah, shoot it slow so I can... Slow? I said slow!
Whoa, that's really common.
Brother.
I'm covered in goo. I can't move fast.
I just woke up.
From my goo pod.
Oh, but wouldn't it be so nice to sleep in goo, you guys?
Like, imagine that there was a way
to go into a pod, it fills up with goo,
you don't suffocate.
There's something on your face so you don't suffocate.
Then you're just in goo for 8 to 14 hours.
And then the goo drains out, it washes you off,
and then you get on with the day.
Am I nude?
Yeah.
Oh, I mean, unless you're on that German flight
and then they give you pajamas.
Yeah, goo pajamas.
They're tighter when they're for goo.
You don't want the goo sliding up.
What did you see while you were in Washington D.C.?
I've never been
I know a giant Lincoln statue
Yeah, we saw him
You saw him?
We saw him
Giant
Washington's penis
Yeah, Washington's penis
Yeah, we saw George's big old dick
What else? Keep going.
The White House.
We saw it from just a really
irritating but funny rooftop bar
where you can see the White House from up here
and then you can just sort of see a bit of it
and everyone's like, cool.
We're not changing our sign.
Says view of the White House
and you kind of get that.
Arlington Cemetery.
Yes, we were staying next to, we were staying between
Arlington Cemetery and the Pentagon
and this like weird house I don't know how my
cousins purchased. Oh wow.
Frog.
Jail time on the horizon.
Did you see the Pentagon?
We saw the outside of the
Pentagon. We tried, we thought we, like idiots, we were like,
I bet we can walk to Washington from here.
And then we were like, this is a land of freeways.
We walked like eight minutes and we were like,
oh, no, it's two hours away.
So we just called an Uber to the Pentagon.
Which felt very insane.
And then we took a lot of photos
outside of the Pentagon
and then saw a huge terrifying sign
that was like,
you don't take photos at the Pentagon.
And we were like, oh, no.
So we didn't post any of them
because we got scared.
Fair enough.
Does the Pentagon look like anything from the ground?
Because I know it's quite impressive to see it from the air, but...
From the ground, it's like you see a big wall,
and then you're like, well, there's a wall that curves out a bit that way,
but when I look the other way,
there is also a wall that curves out a bit that way.
Nice.
Yeah, it's pretty sick.
That is pretty cool.
Now, 9-11 inside job?
God, it's so hard to know.
But from your
perspective. Well, from my perspective, looking at
that one wall, and I thought,
either side. They got lots of
cigarettes.
What was that?
Cigarettes.
Alright.
Did you see anything in Washington D.C.
that like
you didn't
know was there to see
that like
there was like
was there a cool
was Lincoln an ape
when you were like
yeah
good question
yeah
oh yeah
and then there was a lot
of people on their knees
being like
it was a
I forget the end
of the line of that movie
what does he yell on the beach oh it like, it was a, I forget the end of the line of that movie. What does he yell on the beach?
Oh,
it wasn't,
it was us.
That's not the end.
It was us.
I'm on holiday.
Well,
the one where Lincoln's an ape is the Marky Mark one.
Yeah.
So I think he yells,
it's such a good operation.
Not even his part of the song,
Dave.
What I did not. Still a deep cut and I'm proud of you
There's a lot I didn't understand about that ending
Do you know the ending
The Planet of the Apes where they come down
And it's Lincoln ape
Do you know
Why not ape Lincoln
I mean, that's a great question
I guess that's true.
That's true.
Why didn't I?
Yeah.
Well done, Dave.
Yeah.
He's been sitting on that.
Yeah, I've been saving my voice.
But in the movie, he's not Abraham Lincoln.
I don't understand why the statue would be of Abraham Lincoln,
but with a chimpanzee head.
I don't think I saw the remake where this happens.
What happens?
I don't know.
Like now that I'm saying it, I'm like, I'm not sure.
Marky Mark is on a planet of apes.
Yeah, this we know.
It's the planet of them.
We know that.
With Canadian supermodel
Estella Warren.
So far I'm on board.
And,
well,
it was a Tim Burton movie,
so I get,
was Johnny Depp in it?
Yeah,
Johnny Depp is probably in it.
He played all the apes.
And then he escapes
and he lands in Washington, D.C.
He escapes.
Really good.
Oh, he caught fire.
I flew a long way.
And then he's in Washington, D.C.
and he's like, cool, I'm here.
Everything's normal.
Let's check out the sights
in my space costume.
And then it's Ape Lincoln
yeah I'm gonna stay at my cousin's
Airbnb
there's a lot more vines in here
than I would expect anyways
that is a much more confusing
ending to that movie so wait he knew
he was on earth the whole time but he's like it's
probably just this one part that's talking
walking apes and if I just get
to my own patient's capital,
everything will be fine and I'll forget my experience.
Yeah.
Our next guest.
Do you want to bring out our next guest?
I think that's probably safe.
Yeah, why not?
This gentleman, a very, very funny man.
His most recent album that you can buy it on iTunes
is called Demons Are Eating My Head.
Please welcome Mr. Chris Locke, everybody.
Thank you. Hi, Chris.
Hi, how's it going?
Good, how are you?
Good, thanks.
Thank you for coming.
Thanks for having me.
Let me just say it's nice to have you two gentlemen
in the big city of Toronto.
World-class city.
Thanks for coming.
And I don't know if anyone's ever said this to you guys before,
but you guys are two good men.
Did you know that?
Yeah.
All right.
I don't think anyone in this crowd has ever said that before,
so I'm just letting them know.
That's like a really mayoral greeting you just gave us.
Welcome to my town, folks
That's the prequel to A Few Good Men
A Couple Good Men
Soon you're not going to be able to handle the truth
No, that's like
Oh, that's where it came from
The truth is getting pretty slippery
Chris Chris, hello Hi The truth is getting pretty slippery.
Chris.
Chris, hello.
Hi.
I wanted to thank you because today you made me a man.
I wanted to thank you because... Yeah, that's what I meant about all that stuff earlier.
You're a good, good man.
You have a podcast called...
I don't know.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Do you guys...
Okay.
Uh-oh, he's going to go on a rant.
One of Chris Locke's famous rants.
What?
No, I mean, the people listening can't tell.
People here, I'm going to take off my hat.
Just take it easy, all right?
If you're listening at home, Google my shitty head.
I have a podcast called...
ChrisLock'sShittyHead.com There's two. Go to the right one. Yeah. Chris Lock's shitty head.
ChrisLocksShittyHead.com There's two.
Go to the right one.
The other one is...
Dirty.
Incognito browsing, if you catch my D.
Unbelievable.
Oh!
You unbelievable...
My podcast is called Utopia to Me.
Thank you.
Some people know it.
Very nice.
I'm in my own city.
When I listen to your podcast,
you asked the guest what their idea of a utopia would be.
Graham's been on.
Have you been on?
Graham's been on. Have you been on? Graham's been on.
I have.
I did just hit myself in the face with my microphone.
And one thing I notice when I listen
is that you always come back
to your two favorite things in the world,
Indian food and Tom Hardy.
You always ask, so what would the food be like? Like Indian food? In your. You always ask,
so what would the food be like?
Indian food?
In your idea of the perfect world,
is there different levels of spiciness?
And can you eat as much as you want
and you can still have a really good body
like Tom Hardy?
I love spicy food
and I love spicy dudes.
I'm like,
Tom Hardy...
Tom Hardy was in a movie called Lock.
Was that a big day for you when that came out?
Yeah, yeah.
That was my equivalent of Canada 150.
Canada 150, the actual day recently,
I was like, who gives a shit? This ain't no
lock in the theater.
Played by...
Yeah, this Labor Day, lock it up.
But what I was going to say...
Tom Hardy makes me want to go back to high school
and put pictures of him in a locker.
And I'm married to a woman. I'm a straight
man, but, you know, people,
you know, if anyone asks me if I'm gay,
it's like, well, no, I don't think so, but
if I was hugging Tom Hardy, I'd be like, hug
a little longer, Tom.
It's fine.
But I asked you,
I sent you a message saying,
hey, what's a good Indian restaurant? And you told me.
And then the next day you were like,
actually, can I,
because I was planning my trip.
This was on Tuesday.
And then on Wednesday you were like,
actually, I might come with you.
And I was thinking about it all night.
And then you realized you couldn't.
So I went to Indian food today by myself.
I took an Uber.
That's the name of the restaurant?
Yeah, Indian today by myself. Yeah. I took an Uber. That's the name of the restaurant? Yeah, Indian Food by myself.
I took an Uber, and I don't know why I felt like I had to lie to the Uber driver
that I was meeting my friend Chris.
Because I didn't want him to take me right to the restaurant.
It's near a park.
I had him drop me off at the park where I'm meeting my friend Chris.
It's the Toronto vibe, man.
You got to be cool here or you're dead.
You're going by yourself.
You know, they'll just drop you off in the lake.
You're not cool.
Or they'll take you to a Jays game.
Either way, that's for out-of-towners, yeah.
But you went by yourself, and what did you get?
You knew that was going to be the following.
I wished you would come with me, because then we could have shared stuff.
Yeah, you probably got something bad.
I got the butter chicken platter.
Yeah.
Oh, shade.
Their worst platter. And you leave tomorrow morning. Oh, shade. Their worst platter.
And you leave tomorrow morning.
Oh, my God.
Do you know of a breakfast Indian place?
Or an all-night Indian place?
But the thing is, for people that are from here,
if you order Benjar delivery,
maybe Benjar wouldn't like me saying this,
but they're big sponsors of the podcast.
So tread lightly.
What the hell is he doing?
They're listening right now in the kitchen like, huh?
Don't say it.
Don't you blow this, Chris.
Don't you say it.
Uh-huh.
All right.
What?
Anyways, people listening don't know that I imitated
smacking bugs. I didn't know that. Oh, listening don't know that I imitated smacking bugs.
I didn't know that.
Oh, you didn't know?
Yeah.
I was like, what part of Indian food needs a hammer?
Is there like a whack-a-mole back there?
You just moved your hand flatly twice and then made the sound of a whip that doesn't work.
No, no, no.
Okay, let's rewind.
Let's hear that sound again.
You guys can see the action.
Wait, what did you say? A whip?
A whip that's like wet or something.
A wet whip.
I always get fly swatters
and wet whips mixed up.
Listen to this and watch this, you.
Wet whip. Wet whip.
Wet whip.
That's a moist whip.
Imagine Indiana Jones whipped a guy and they're like, ew, because it was wet.
They're like, why is your whip, you're good at that.
I was soaking that in my toilet all night, you Nazi.
Yeah, yeah.
Soaking this in brine.
Ew. Okay, can we allaking this in brine. Ew.
Okay, can we all go around and do our fly swatter noises?
Yeah.
Okay, I'll start.
Oh, no, you added more whip.
It's like the whip was drying out a bit.
It got the first sound.
Okay, wait, I got it this time, okay?
Listen to this.
I got the first sound.
Okay, wait.
I got it this time, okay?
Listen to this.
Yeah, that was good at the end there, yeah.
My hat.
Does he ever say my hat?
Every movie.
Every three minutes of it,
Indiana Jones, like he goes,
ah, my hat. I'm good at everything else
but holding onto my hat
when you said
indie
and snakes
I was picturing a guy
who was like
we're gonna go see
an indie movie
and then like
he's so disappointed
where's Harrison Ford
this is a lot of
Winona Ryder being sad.
Everybody in this movie is keeping their hats on.
Okay, your noise.
Oh, okay.
Like a fly swatter?
Yeah.
You thought I forgot.
Fuck!
Oh, my God. Really good. Fuck! Oh my God.
Really good.
The front runner.
Yeah.
Thank you.
I didn't see a cow do improv, so.
Pew, pew.
Auga.
Auga.
Those are all noises from Indiana Jones movies.
But if you order Benjara at movies. But if you order banjara at night,
but if you order...
Chris Locke.
Yeah.
On message.
Takeout is the servings are three times as big
as if you go to the restaurant.
So you get banjara for breakfast the next day.
Ah, there you go. And you get palak paneer.
You know, you get like
aloo gobi.
Anyways, get what you like.
That's what I get.
My favorite, I went out for...
And chicken vindaloo, sorry.
Anything else?
Yeah, probably chicken tikka
masala.
Okay, I'm sorry.
Do you ever get a drink? Me? Never. Yeah, probably chicken tiki masala. Yeah. Okay, I'm sorry.
Do you ever get a drink?
Me?
Never.
Good God.
Yeah.
I asked them to send me a water and a plastic cup.
That's water coming out of the tap.
My hat.
My wet hat.
This is my impression of everyone working at Benjara.
All of our hats!
I'm sorry I'm ruining this. No, you're not.
Oh, no, sir.
I went out for lunch with you the other day.
Oh, you made time for Graham?
Yeah.
Oh.
And he's been on your podcast?
Pardon?
And he's been on your podcast?
Yeah, but you live...
Surrounded by children, dogs, and also on the other side of the country. Yeah, but you live surrounded by children,
dogs, and also on the other
side of the country. Yeah, that's the big one.
Yeah. I remember when I did
your podcast, I showed up and we
had miscommunicated about the time, and so
you were mid-exercise
routine when I showed up.
Those were the days.
And so
you were like, oh, my God.
You came at the wrong time or whatever.
And you're like, but we'll do the podcast.
So you went and had a shower.
But then your wife came home.
She also had a shower.
She said one of my favorite things that anybody's ever said to me.
She walked by and she's like, sorry you showed up at bath time.
I didn't know that.
Wait,
this was before Amy was born?
Yes.
This was adult
bath time that I showed up for.
Yeah, we have a brand
new daughter and we go into the shower and pass her
to the other person when it's time to shower.
But my wife is really
funny and she's a comedian and writes
and acts on TV too.
She doesn't write on TV. That'd be weird.
Like a really
boring Bob Ross. Just like,
I'm writing the word tree forever.
Forever.
This show's called
This is Boring, I Know.
So?
Yeah, that's really funny.
Thank you.
She's funny is what I'm saying.
Yeah, she's hilarious.
But we went out for lunch.
Your wife, Ellen DeGeneres, we should say. Yeah, she's hilarious. But we went out for lunch. Your wife, Ellen DeGeneres,
we should say.
Yeah.
And Tom Hardy?
Eh.
But your...
The place that we went to for lunch was very good.
But your pitch to me... Mr. Sub.
Mr. Sub.
Pineapples and mushrooms. Gross. Sub. Mr. Sub. Pineapples and mushrooms.
Gross yourself out.
Mr. Sub, the all-sorted sub.
It's the only sub you can find on the floor, and it's fine.
What is the all-sorted sub?
I don't know.
I have no...
I think it's just a bunch of different slices of pig.
It should be called The Sad Pig.
I just watched Okja.
Do you guys watch it?
What is this?
Oh, we shouldn't talk about it.
This is the movie about a genetically engineered pig.
You'll love it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Boy, oh boy.
It's about a charming child who grows up with a giant
genetically modified super pig
and then a factory
shoots it in the head
in front of us.
What?
Tail is old as time.
Yeah.
Genetically modified super pig
and the beanstalk.
What else is there?
Yeah.
Genetically modified super pig sat on a tuffet.
There, you see?
Oh, yeah, of course.
The funniest person's over there.
Yeah.
I didn't catch what she said.
She said the three little genetically modified super pigs.
Mo, there's a part in the movie where they hold a gun to the freaking thing's head in a factory.
And they're like, we're going to kill this and then sell it as meat to eat.
It's a freaking pig, kid.
And the kid's like, don't.
But everyone at home was like, Jesus Christ.
And then for a whole day after,
you never eat Okja.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's true.
I haven't eaten Okja since.
But then two days later, you're like,
I'm fucking hungry.
And Mr. South's right here.
Do you have an Okja vindaloo?
Yeah, can you put some tandoori on that Okja?
Drizzle honey on it?
Why, if they could make a genetically engineered super pig,
why would they need to make it alive?
Why can't they just make it a blob of meat?
Because, tell me why.
Because John Ronson,on is a co-writer
and Boon
Jong Ho or whatever
what happened
no I think that's the director's name
right and they co-wrote it
because I think they make
Super Pig Joe
what's his name Okja
at no point was he called
Super Pig Joe Super Big Joe.
Super Big Joe, come back!
Dave left the stage because he's outraged.
No, like, they're hardcore vegans, I think,
so they wrote a movie with an agenda
so that when you watch the movie, you know,
you get it.
We lost the whole
person because of Super Big Joe.
And you just had to pee.
One time I tried being a vegetarian.
Oh, he's getting some popcorn.
He's getting some popcorn.
Genetically modified cheese popcorn.
Don't! That's my friend!
I tried being a vegetarian
for like a month once,
and then my wife and I were in birth class,
and then...
And there's a lot of meat platters.
You watch videos of meat coming out onto a platter.
Dave knows, but like...
It's true, there's some poop too.
Could you keep the poo away from my brand new child?
That's all I ask.
I paid $30 to take a cab here.
And you're just mixing the child and the poo.
Did you really take a cab to have the baby?
We had a home birth.
You just got served.
Oh, man.
Step up three.
Home birth city.
I took a cab to my home from the hospital for other reasons.
I was like, can you look at this?
And then got the text, what?
Had to race home.
You really, you did a home birth?
Yeah.
Wow.
Yeah, some of it's detailed on my album,
Demons Are Eating My Head.
Good night, everybody.
No, but when I'm watching the videos in class
for some reason.
Oh, I literally thought you were going to say,
when I'm watching the videos of the birth,
I do every week. Like, I literally thought you were going to say, when I'm watching the videos of the birth, I do every week.
Like, that's what it's like.
You got to see the video
of my home birth.
I'm so funny in it.
And I got paid extra.
No, but the thing is,
is watching the videos
of the babies coming out of...
Strange babies coming out of strange women.
They make us watch that.
It is strange.
Like, the people who volunteer to be filmed
for a prenatal class video,
they're exactly who you think they are.
It's really funny.
Yeah, they're not stylish.
Oh, sorry, Chris. It's really funny. Yeah, they're not stylish.
Oh, sorry, Chris.
Yeah, they're not wearing the latest trends.
No gladiator sandals.
Yeah, this ain't your run-of-the-mill Tom Hardy flick.
I'm only making a baby and some poo, apparently.
I'm dizzy from laughing.
I was watching these videos
and I started craving chicken.
I was like, I need to eat
chicken so bad.
And I don't get it. And then I texted my friend
who's like a hardcore meat eater.
And he knows
that I was trying to be a vegetarian
for like a month and I'm like,
I need to eat chicken so bad, but I feel guilty.
And then he writes back,
what would they do if you didn't eat them?
They just walk around in the woods
for 20 minutes clucking until they die.
And I was like, he's right.
And then ever since I've eaten so much chicken.
In the woods.
It's true.
If we didn't eat chickens, what would they do?
Tell me.
They need us.
They need us for that.
Yeah.
That's how Okja ends.
Turns out this genetically modified super pig needed us to eat him.
Well, we really learned a lot.
Yeah.
Do we want to move on to a little segment we call Overheards?
Yeah, I think so.
All right.
Overheard.
Hey, audience.
You still with us?
Yeah.
In it for the long haul, this audience.
Good, because we need you now more than ever.
What's going to happen is Graham and I, and I want to say Ebony and Chris,
are going to do our overheards.
Now, these are things we hear.
And then you'll get a chance.
I didn't think about how you're going to get on stage.
I think you go around this way. You'll get a chance. I didn't think about how you're going to get on stage. I think you go around this way.
You'll get a chance.
If you haven't overheard, you can come up on stage and give it to us.
I overheard that.
Huh?
That guy's whispering.
Oh, he said move the mic down.
Yeah, but I want to...
Look.
I run things my way.
Yeah, somebody burped really loud over here.
I just overheard the craziest burp.
Yeah.
That was like a Foley burp that you like...
Like, did we get that on tape?
We could smell that.
That was like a perfect like...
It's okay if they come up on.
They use that for Indiana Jones movies.
This is a very professional show, and we won't allow it to be.
People are trying to whisper it to us really like stealthily.
Ah, ah, ah.
Do talk loud.
So we'll figure that out when it happens.
Yeah, but we always do like to start with the guests,
and we'll start over here. Ebony, do you have it over here i have one this happened to me tonight before i came
but it is prefaced by me saying that i was in a softly embarrassing place uh before i came here
okay look guys it's fine look my boyfriend and i sure we went to a bar that only serves ciders. It's okay.
Oh, what is the name of this place?
I don't, I feel I outed too many things tonight, and I don't want to out it.
It's on, it's good.
They make cider.
Only cider.
But, so we were at this cider bar having, if'm being honest we're having a flight of cider sampling different different time up um this sounds like i'm explaining what someone
overheard of me being embarrassing but i didn't hear someone else um but you're saying that and
it was very clearly like sort of like a like a like I don't know if it was a Tinder date, but like a new date kind of next to us.
And they also had a flight of ciders, but in a way that I'm like, you don't know each other well enough to not be embarrassed by this choice you made.
So they're kind of making awkward conversation and the guy said just like pretty good.
And then he goes, I can still crush a grape juice though, in a way.
still crush a grape juice though in a way i took to me that he was talking i i i thought he meant like i can also i also know how to drink wine i think was what i thought he meant but then she went
what you mean like welches
what you mean like welches
and there was a long pause
and then he went
yeah
and then I just went back
to drinking their ciders
yeah I feel like
I could crush a grape juice
what does that mean
yeah
I'm imagining a
juice box
that's what she was
imagining too
crushing it
yeah
I'm also thinking about a grape crush.
These are all the things that are going
through my head right now. And how long has it been
since everybody here had any
crush product? Long time.
I feel like that's the turbo-less pop.
When was the last time you had a crush?
I can't remember.
I had an orange crush. I was
at somewhere that had
a vending machine and that was one of the options. I was like, orange crush i was uh at somewhere that had a vending machine and that was one of the
options i was like orange crush maybe that'll be my thing and i had like two steps i was like oh
this is so sweet it is so it's crazier than i remember it but it's uh it's like uh can i tell
you something that made me remember? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
When I was a kid, I collected G.I. Joes,
and they always had stats.
You pointed right at me when you said,
when I was a kid.
Yeah, I was a kid like that.
I'm a bit older than you, ain't I?
No, but like, they always had information about the G.I. Joes on the back of the package,
and I got Major Blood, who was a real bad guy,
and his main thing,
this is the only thing I remember from my childhood.
One of the bad things that Major Blood is known for
is he brushes his teeth with grape soda.
It's true!
And when I was a kid, I was like, holy moly.
Like, what a badass. Yeah, I want to do that! it's true and when I was a kid I was like holy moly like
what a bad ass
yeah
I want to do that
am I bad
you know
I remember
I once got a bad guy
I don't remember
who he had
spiky hair
and on the back
one of the things
he did
was bribery
and I
I read it out loud
and my mom was like
do you know what that is
and I was like it's like when you was like do you know what that is and I was like
it's like when you're like
I have a puppy
and she said
that's bragging
I'll give you this puppy
to keep your mouth shut
that's bribery
no thanks
I have a puppy already
look officer
I know you can see
the drugs behind me
but I have a puppy already. Look, officer, I know you can see the drugs behind me,
but I have a puppy.
That's why the Sopranos was so good.
A motorcycle cop drives away with your puppy on the back of his motorcycle?
Yeah.
Shh.
Chris, do you have an overheard?
So I've done this segment a couple times with you guys before,
and I feel bad because I realize I don't really get overheards in public
because I'm always listening to rock and roll.
Oh, wait, which one were you doing?
I was going ACDC.
What were you doing?
Wipe out.
Wait, how does that go?
You think that guy that does the laugh at the beginning gets residual?
Yeah, yeah.
You guys missed it at home, but I got money fingers.
Yeah, money fingers.
But so in my apartment today, we have a pool in our building,
and some family members were over.
And my nephew was getting ready to use the pool.
But down the hall, I heard him say this to his mom.
He's eight years old.
And he goes, Mom, can you shoot me with a gun when I'm in the pool?
So he's going through this phase where he likes to pretend that he's getting shot by a gun.
And his mom's like, maybe.
Maybe.
If you're good.
No, mom, sell it! Sell it!
When you moved into the building, were they like,
you're not going to have a home birth in the pool, are you?
I was like, we'll see.
Maybe.
Yeah, you just sold a place to a little devil.
Dave?
Mine is an overseen. Overseen here in, I want to say Toronto. Yeah. Dave?
Mine is an overseen.
Overseen here in, I want to say Toronto.
Welcome.
On Church Street.
I was walking down.
Minding my own business.
And then I looked in the window of a place and they were like a, what would you call it?
I'm not sure.
Like an aesthetics?
Aesthetics or aesthetics?
Like waxing.
Oh, not like, oh, this is a nice room.
A spa of some kind. And there was just a poster for this product that is a gentleman's
manscaping bomb called Proud Cock.
Very good.
That sounds great.
Yeah.
Yeah. And the picture is a cartoon rooster holding a razor in one hand,
and the other hand holding his hat over his crotch.
Wow, that is confusing.
That's freaking...
That's so scary, I know.
It looks like he just cut off his dick.
And he's sheltered it with his hat.
Yeah.
And then there's another bottle of pomade with Indiana Jones across from it going,
My hat!
Go die in the woods, you rooster.
Every call back in one.
Graham, what's your deal?
But I made a mistake.
I cut it off.
What?
Yeah, that's all right.
My overheard.
His dick.
That's all right. My overheard His dick Came courtesy of This was last night
I was walking home
And it was really
I was walking through a really clubby kind of area
And there was
Two bros
On the sidewalk
Watching the third of the bros
Park, parallel park.
And he really nailed it.
Really nailed it.
And one of the bros went,
oh, yeah.
And then the other bro goes,

And then they
both started singing the theme
to entourage
to what? to entourage
no way
yeah yeah
yeah
what is there to sing?

but they knew the words
whatever the words are
so anyway so that was my over.
Now, I alluded to it before.
If you haven't overheard, don't be shy.
You go.
Heave your body up onto this forefront stage.
Yeah.
Someone will show you your way up.
And we'll just, you know, talk.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Don't be shy.
This is a...
Oh, I see.
They're moving.
Oh, boy, there they go.
Oh, they're moving.
They just won.
Fresh oak jaw.
Oh, boy.
I am Spartacus over here.
What if all the people that stood up just left the theater?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
This is their chance.
This is a walkout.
Oh, there's a lot.
Keep them short, eh? It's the first. Hello. Hi there. Hello. This is their chance. This is a walkout. There's a lot of people short.
It's the first.
Hello.
Hi there.
Hello.
What is your name?
I'm Matt.
Hi, Matt.
Hi, Matt.
What's your deal?
No real deal.
I have an overseen.
Okay.
Those are valid.
I was at the Bathurst subway station today on the way here.
Local reference.
And there was like a sandwich shop or something there.
Mr. Sub?
Not as highbrow, sorry.
So they had one of those bright red and blue light flashing signs that said open on it.
And it was on and flashing.
And right over top of it was like a cardboard...
Something ripped off a box and black sharpie scrawled closed.
something ripped off a box and black sharpie scrawled closed.
I feel like there was a more energy effective way
to indicate that your store was closed.
We made a deal with the devil.
We don't know how to turn off this sign.
We put all our money in this sign.
There's no meat in there.
That everybody.
Now, I'm looking at this lineup backstage.
Can you keep your overheards to six words or less?
Hello.
Hi.
Hi. What's your name?
I'm Kat.
Hi, Kat.
Are you from here?
I am.
Cool.
So this is a little bit old, but I guess I've been holding on to it so I could do it in person.
But it was at Eglinton Subway Station.
Woo!
Woo!
And I saw two teenage girls, and one was holding the other one's face, and she said,
Your eyebrows are strong as fuck.
Whoa!
That's important.
That is very important.
Cat, everybody.
I wonder what would have happened to that girl
if her friend let go of her face.
Their eyebrows would have ruined Eglinton Station.
Well, she couldn't let go
because her eyebrows were strong as fuck.
She was trying to get her hands off his face.
Hello.
Hello.
Hello.
And you are?
I'm Noel.
Hi, Noel. Hello.
So it's an overheard from a Costco walkie-talkie.
And you were a customer?
I was a customer.
Okay.
Or just a Costco brand walkie-talkie.
Help! What's the Costco brand walkie-talkie. Help!
What's the Costco brand?
Kirkland.
Kirkland walkie-talkie.
Yeah, yeah.
Kirkland walkie-talkie.
Yes.
Go on, Noel.
So it's a...
Can I get a clean-up in the olive oil aisle?
There's been an oil spill.
Ah, yeah.
That is... Noel. Ah, yeah. That is fun.
Noel.
Noel, everybody.
That's why it's fun to work in places that have groceries.
You get to do a little funneling, things like that.
Yeah, you make a pun for the rest of your life.
Come on.
Get up on that thing.
Oh, look how tall you are.
I'm going to take this off.
What are you? Oh, he's going to do a set.
Jesus.
This guy's overseeing everything.
Someone build him a brick wall.
What is your name?
My name's Kevin.
Hey, Kevin.
So my wife and I were at the Guardians of the Galaxy sequel,
and it was a pretty empty theater,
but there was an elderly gentleman in the row in front of us,
and he was with a younger woman who was maybe like his daughter
or his granddaughter or something,
and he was kind of making like side commentary to her throughout the whole movie.
And you couldn't really hear it that well.
But then towards the end of the movie, it's not a spoiler if you haven't seen it,
but a character gets this like spacesuit slapped on him that's kind of a bubble
that encases his whole body and shot up into space so he can survive.
And the old man just goes,
the theater goes quiet, and you just
hear him really clearly,
saved by a bubble.
That's a good one.
Kevin, everybody.
Wow.
I don't like how
people can decide when they're telling you,
this isn't a spoiler.
Anyway, he loses his hat to a bunch of Nazis.
Hello.
Hi there.
Hello.
Oh, hello.
Hi.
Hi there.
Hi.
My name's Gabrielle.
This is two people in a row, two or three, in jean shorts.
Welcome to Toronto.
I'm proud of you.
I'm proud of you. I'm proud of you.
All right.
Anyway, this is an overheard from a Starbucks up at Yorkdale, the mall.
And it was this middle-aged man on his cell phone.
And to whoever he was on the phone with, he goes,
she's spending money and I'm just admiring her spending money.
Aw.
Class.
Gabrielle, everybody.
Get on up.
Hi.
I'm Anna.
This happened to me on King Street on the way over here.
We were walking
and the strains
of hypnotize were bumping
through the air, the Notorious B.I.G. song.
And my sister was like, oh, someone is jamming.
And then a car drove up and it was a white Cadillac and the license plate said love to jam.
What?
Buy a lottery ticket.
Anna, everybody.
That's amazing.
I mean, I love to jam,
but I would never want other people to know.
Yeah, I never thought of that.
Come on up.
Get it.
Hello.
Hello.
I'm Tina.
Hi, Tina.
Thanks for coming.
How far did you come tonight?
From Massachusetts.
Oh, shit.
That's amazing. Did Anna also come tonight? From Massachusetts. That's amazing.
Did Anna also come from Massachusetts?
Awesome.
I know things.
We had dinner together.
I'm very nice.
Yeah, he's very nice.
He's a nice boy.
Nice by Dave is uncomfortable.
So your parents were Always remembers
A college professor and a therapist
Yes that's true you always remember
Something like that
And Chris you were bald
I remember that
Good memory
He did put his hat back on
Tina if you would
Thank you.
So this overhears from Massachusetts.
And I was at the gym, and we were doing sit-ups,
a few of us in a row, and a woman next to me,
very kind of prim and proper woman in her mid-60s,
lovely, but never sweats.
And she's doing sit-ups,
and the song by Drowning Pool comes on,
the Bodies song. Oh, I thought it was maybe a deep cut by Drowning Pool.
Definitely not.
And when the part happens where it's the,
let the bodies hit the floor, let the bodies hit the floor,
she turns to the person next to her and goes,
oh, this brings back memories.
Oh.
Tina, everybody.
See you there, everybody.
My favorite, there was a,
when that Jason in Space movie came out,
that was playing in the trailer,
and I saw it in the theater, the trailer.
And after the trailer,
someone in front of me went,
oh, good soundtrack.
Hi.
Hello.
Although, you know what?
Bodies don't hit floors in space.
That's a good point, Dave.
Hello.
Hi.
I'm Kevin.
Devin?
No, Kevin.
Kevin, all right.
We already have a Kevin.
Can you be a Devin?
Can you be Devin?
Is that all right?
You can call me Devin. All right, go ahead.
I don't give a shit. Okay.
Hi, Kevin.
Hi. So I was in a video game store
a couple weeks ago, AC Games
on Spadina, and I was taking
back some... What, do you work there?
There was a pause
for applause, you guys.
No, no. I'm sorry, Kevin.
I've been rude.
That's okay. Kevin, go ahead.
There's another gentleman in here, and he was talking very loudly
on his phone to someone
he was supposed to meet there, I guess.
And he was saying, he said,
you sound like...
No, I already said Siri.
You sound like Cortana got Parkinson's.
Oh.
I don't know what any of that means.
Like I know what...
Kevin, everybody.
Kevin.
Yeah, I felt like I was watching Battlestar Galactica.
Because I know what Siri is.
Cortana is the Google Siri.
Okay.
So who's Alexa?
VibraCell.
What did they say?
They're drunk.
Hello.
Hi there.
Hey, I'm Sasha from Ottawa.
Hey, Sasha.
Wow, thanks for coming.
Thank you for coming all the way from Ottawa.
You drive or take a train?
I took a ride share.
Ride share?
Yeah.
What is that?
It's when you go on Facebook
and you find people
who are going to a place
and you go with them.
Wow.
Who are your ride share mates?
All Jays fans?
Just people going to baseball games?
I'm not allowed to say
who I took the ride share with.
Oh, no.
Sasha.
Fierce.
That makes sense.
Guys, let's go.
So I was at
McDonald's about a month ago.
And it was the McDonald's where the guy
took a baby raccoon out of his jacket
during a fight.
It was the same one.
Wait, wait, pause.
I've already used up all my questions.
Yeah.
Luckily, I still have one left Expand on that
There was a brawl
At the Rooster Street McDonald's
And a guy
Just walked in with a trench coat
Opened it, pulled out a baby raccoon
That's the whole story.
Yeah, that's how you break up a fight.
All right, everyone, look at this.
Touche.
Okay, please continue.
So I was there, and there's the person whose job it is to bring the food from the kitchen to the counter.
And they just walked about halfway between
the kitchen and the counter and they just
stopped and just looked into
the distance for five or six
seconds and just said,
fuck.
Are you kidding me?
That was the best. That was the best.
That was the best.
I would love it if the second part of that sentence was,
I forgot how to get to the counter.
What was I doing?
Sasha, everybody.
Oh, my goodness.
Hello.
That was fantastic.
Hello.
Hey, guys.
Hi.
I'm Jesse. I'm from that way. Hello. That was fantastic. Hello. Hey guys. Hi. I'm Jesse.
I'm from that way.
Yeah.
I saw you at a coffee shop earlier.
Hi Jesse.
Hey.
I was there too.
I saw Graham see a guy who recognized Graham.
It was this guy.
I was like, I'm going to drink my coffee.
So my wife and I were coming here.
We got off the street, and coming towards us were
a guy and his date.
And the guy was super excited, and he was pointing across the street and said, ooh,
have you ever had Quiznos before?
Such a great sub.
So much better than Subway.
Jesse, everybody.
All three sub franchises have been mentioned.
So many long sandwiches on tonight's episode.
But what if that was your ace up your sleeve on the date?
Like, wow, should we pass the Quiznos?
Yeah, we're going home
together.
Hello!
Hi there. What's your name?
I'm Brittany. Hey, Brittany. From Guelph.
From Guelph? Oh, yeah.
Home of the Griffins
and Sleeman Breweries. Everybody,
hey, I studied up on Guelph before I came here.
Was that a bad move?
No.
Here we are, Brittany.
So mine's not so much of an overheard, but a conversation.
Get right up in that mic.
Oh, am I not here?
Okay, hello.
Hi.
So my friend's wife, it was a conversation with her on Canada 150.
Just some background.
She's a family doctor, so she gets a lot of like, doctor, can you check out my situation, please?
I get that too, but I'm not.
So she's like, she's day drunk.
She's like, oh, like I was at the worst bachelorette like last weekend.
They made me take shots from these dick-shaped penises.
And I was like...
I was like, oh, like, I didn't know penises were anything but dick-shaped.
And just with this, like, thousand-yard stare, she's like, oh, you'd be surprised.
I went on Britney, everybody! Oh, you'd be surprised.
I would, uh,
Brittany, everybody!
I would also be surprised.
Yeah.
Let's all go down the line and say what our dicks are shaped like.
Mine,
sunflower.

Me and my girlfriend were at a Colorado show out in Ottawa.
Yeah.
And we heard two teenage girls, and they're like,
you know black and white movies?
Did you know that they didn't see in black and white?
Have you ever heard of Quiznos?
Glenn, everybody.
Very good.
I definitely, like, I asked my dad that once.
Like, so when you were a kid, did you dream in black and white?
And what was his answer? Were you a dog?
He said, no, you're an idiot.
That's bragging.
Well, that brings us
to the end of this year's show.
But, well, I mean,
it couldn't go all night, naturally.
The tea party's been
tuning up for two hours.
They're going to sing their
hit, Scones.
Joke from 1997.
But we're
going to hang around if you want to say hello,
grab a photo, whatever.
Just shake hands.
If you want a photo,
we'll put our arm around you.
It doesn't mean we're dating.
Unless you take me
to a fancy sandwich shop.
I'm going to need
a couple minutes to pee
and also it may look like
there's pee on my pants.
It's not pee.
We would both very much like to thank
our two fantastic guests.
