Starting point is 00:02:08 of which we had an interview with some episodes ago. Jason Bryden, episode 12, I believe. Oh, wow. He was in our first dozen. He's got the brains. You've got the looks.
Starting point is 00:02:23 I'm in the third dozen apparently Let's make lots of money That's better than nothing We think that the third dozen is going to be That's where the golden egg is going to be We're making 1200 Yeah so that's 100 dozens Okay
Starting point is 00:02:36 And then we're getting out That's ambitious Out of the podcast business We're going to go into the roadside pie business. We're going to retire together. Stop pie-crusting yourself. I was trying to think of a real... It's not bad.
Starting point is 00:02:56 That's not bad. We should do a search on the domain names now. Stop pie-crusting yourself. David Mildred, who... i've been on shows with you before yeah yeah you've been on our show on your show and it's been fantastic and then uh during the get to know a segment i guess uh well i got to know you very well because we went down to seattle and bumbershoot this past weekend we sure did we went on a Bumbershoot. We both got sweaty and nervous when we crossed the border. Super nervous.
Starting point is 00:03:28 But it was easy. It was the easiest border crossing ever. How often do you guys cross the border? Oh, I don't know. Like, I mean, I don't, you know, whenever. I'm going to say six times this year. Wow, every two months. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:42 I've been across three times this year. Why did you get sweaty this time? No, it's always nervous because we're not, you know... Desirables? Yeah. To them, you might as well be saying that you're like a bounty hunter or something. Like Dog the Bounty Hunter. Like, if you say you're an actor, that's as bad as if you're like...
Starting point is 00:04:00 For some reason, when you're an actor, the flags go up. Because I've been turned away at the border before. Really? 2003. And we weren't doing anything... Untoward? Yeah, no, not untoward or illegal or unscrupulous. We were just going down for the festival,
Starting point is 00:04:17 and there was no money involved. You were allowed to do it, but still. We had a letter, but we still... I get nervous just being around the border. Even if I'm not going to cross it. If I see a sign that says border 200 miles,
Starting point is 00:04:34 I start getting a little... Because you hear all these stories about people that go across the border. Like my friend, he got the full... They looked up his butt. What was that? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because he went... He... They looked up his butt. What was that? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because he went...
Starting point is 00:04:47 He had to take down his pants and they... This is the craziest story. And I won't say who it was, but I've heard this story a couple times. But you'll tell us when we talk about it. But it was these two guys were... Two comics were on tour and they made a wrong turn. They ended up at the border. And you know you can't turn around once you're at the border right like once you get into that into that feed there's nowhere to i mean
Starting point is 00:05:10 if you did turn around and started driving over the grass or something they might be alarmed that would trigger an alarm so they just thought okay well we'll just go across the border and then we'll just come back yeah just say we literally are lost get some direction from the guy at the border turn around and come back through the border again well except that one of them was carrying something like some mushrooms or something no yeah but not like a bag of them like one that had you know was rolling around his pocket but even still yeah but he didn't know you know he they just thought well we'll just go he probably should have but you don't think that you're when you go through the border you just hey you bring in any fruit in no we'll just go through. He probably should have. But you don't think that when you go through the border, you just, hey, are you bringing any fruit in?
Starting point is 00:05:48 No. And then you go through, right? Well, usually they ask, are you bringing anything illegal in? Yeah, and he didn't know he had it on him. That was the thing. Because he was so high. They didn't like the looks of them. And that's why they were lost in the first place.
Starting point is 00:06:01 Yeah, exactly. And they thought the border guard was actually a giant teddy bear or something. They couldn't stop laughing. They started giggling at him. But yeah, so they pulled him over and then the dogs smelled it and then they gave him the full butt check.
Starting point is 00:06:18 They looked in his butt. And what'd they find? Just more butt. There was nothing. He wasn't mewling drugs. He just happened to have a cap of a mushroom in his pocket. So what's the story? They checked his ass out and did he get going? Did he what? Did they say, get going?
Starting point is 00:06:34 You're fine? We checked your ass? You're good to go? They said, back to Canada and don't come back for whatever a decade or whatever. So he's got to be flagged. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:47 But, see, that's the thing. He got ass flagged. And they kind of do it like they do on Everest, where they just put, like, a flag at the top of your ass. So they know someone's been there. So, yeah, it's... But Bumbershoot was fun. Bumbershoot was fantastic. It was good.
Starting point is 00:07:04 I got to know you very well. Yeah. Like, it was weird because it was kind of like planes and trains and automobiles. We didn't know each other at the beginning of the trip. Like, we knew each other, but we didn't, like, have a strong relationship. You know, like, we don't know each other that well at all. And we managed to get to know each other. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:22 Now these colors don't run. That's right. And we managed to get to know each other. Yeah. Now these colors don't run. That's right. And the first night, we were in... Kirkland?
Starting point is 00:07:34 Yeah, and then we had to go to Kirkland. Yeah, we had to drive 25 minutes to our accommodation. I was... Well, first we had to go to the secret comedy show. I didn't even know what was happening. They said, we're going to this place called Laughs In Kirkland Which is a weird It's like a comedy club in a strip mall
Starting point is 00:07:51 Which I've never seen that before A martial arts store A store? Yeah, no, seriously Do they teach it? Or are they just supplies? I think it was both Yeah, it looked like it was a one-stop martial arts emporium.
Starting point is 00:08:05 And next to that, there was a learn how to fix vacuums or something. Yeah, and a hair salon, and then a comedy club on the end. I've never seen anything like it. And it was the secret 12 a.m. comedy show. So they had all these headliners from all over the states, like Greg, what's his name baron baron and uh doug benson and some guy from cloverfield yeah the monster yeah the monster actually is the top of the statue of liberty a few people died at the show
Starting point is 00:08:38 and uh you know all those acts were great but then by the time the show wrapped up we were like it's like pushing two in the morning or something. We were tired. Yeah, we were pushing ten all day. We were pushing ten. I don't know what that means. I don't know. It sounds like a golf term.
Starting point is 00:08:54 Yeah, has anyone seen the movie? Yeah. No, you're thinking of Tin Cup. Oh, Tin Cup. Okay. Right, that's the one with Cheech Beret. But maybe pushing ten is like you're just draining every putt you got. So when you're pushing ten, you're just so good.
Starting point is 00:09:05 No, Push and Tin refers to, because they're air traffic controllers, so moving planes from place to place is Push and Tin. Okay. What was the name of that Cusack movie? Push and Tin. Push and Tin? Yeah. Tin Cup was the one with Kevin Costner.
Starting point is 00:09:20 Sounds like a bad Japanese cartoon. Oh, like Push and Tin. Yeah, Push and Tin. Like I do the voice for Okiro in Push and Tin. Sounds like a bad Japanese cartoon. Oh, like Pushentin. Yeah, Pushentin. Like I do the voice for Okiro in Pushentin. Is what I'd say at a party. So we were at Laffs until 2 in the morning. Then we went to... Kevin Hyder, who's a producer.
Starting point is 00:09:40 Did you guys get discovered? We did. We did kind of by a dinner theater. By a dinner theater. In Washington. And they run a circus during dinner and they want acts. Oh good, a circus. Yeah. Does anyone
Starting point is 00:09:55 ever show up on purpose to that? They do but the only... Do they just think they're going to dinner and then, oh great. The only dinner items are peanuts and that pink popcorn shit you used to get. I actually have the business card. Oh, let me see the business card. I don't even know how to say that.
Starting point is 00:10:15 Tino Zinzani. It's Teatro Zizani. Oh, you're Italian. Yeah. No, well, I remember there used to be a place in town called Zizani. But it's... It was French. Lisa Nix was fond of you and our act.
Starting point is 00:10:31 Yeah, it was a good... So we're in. All right. Yeah, we're done. We're going to run off and join the circus. The dinner circus. But then we stayed at this guy... How bad does dinner have to be?
Starting point is 00:10:44 I don't know, but it's a lot of oompa during dinner. Oompa-da-da-oompa-da-da. What's that? No, what's that calliope? Because it's terrible to do comedy while people are eating. But I don't know if it's terrible to do circus while people are eating. Because it's okay to do medieval when people are eating. Have you ever been to that place?
Starting point is 00:11:09 I wish. That place. There's a place in Vegas, and then there's other ones, and it's okay to do medieval when people are eating like have you ever been to that place i wish that place there's a place in vegas and then there's other ones and it's called one in toronto is there one times medieval times yeah and i went there and it was hilarious so you're eating mutton and watching people eating and it comes on a wooden plate right and it's all the all the staff it's the best because the staff comes over and they're all like uh it's there was a scene in the cable guy yeah right when he goes like bring me another mug of grog wench and she goes yeah oh whatever right she's wearing like black eye shadow that's what it's. That's actually what it feels like. I think they're actually jousting. Yeah, there's a huge pit in the middle with, like, sawdust. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:54 Because so many people are throwing up. Yeah. It's just there to help absorb all the vomit. All the vomit. But jousting's dangerous. So people actually are getting hit? Yeah, well, they're paid actors or whatever. Like, it's not just like, Tommy at table 23. They don't just invite people down.
Starting point is 00:12:09 That's an elaborate stunt. Oh, yeah. This was going to be an overheard, but I don't think I remember anything specific about it. But I saw a poster up on a pole in my neighborhood advertising swordplay classes. I have one of those at home. One of the posters? Yeah. There's a series of them actually.
Starting point is 00:12:33 Swordplay. It's a good way to get in shape or whatever. It's a good way to meet people by the sounds of it. Yeah. I don't know if they do jousting. But I doubt it,
Starting point is 00:12:47 because you need horse access and or Harley Davidson access. Yeah, because jousting without a horse just makes you look like a jackass. Looks like you're doing a caber toss and you don't know what you're doing. You have to be of noble birth to compete. Night's Tale?
Starting point is 00:13:03 Yeah, or First Night. First Night. No. No, that was or First Night. First Night. No. No, that was Richard Gere. Never mind. Wait, what was the one with Heath? Night's Tale. That's what we're talking about.
Starting point is 00:13:12 I saw that, and you know what? He was terrible in it. Those British are obsessed with class. Here's a little insider thing about that movie that I always thought was particularly interesting. The jousting staffs or whatever, the way that they made them explode like that you know it was inside them they were like cardboard filled with pasta ah really yeah that's why they exploded and it looks like wood splinters it's actually just like spaghettis and stuff oh that's fun that's a fun
Starting point is 00:13:41 that's kind of a fun fact right i'm I'm going to share that. My favorite part is when everyone spontaneously broke into We Will Rock You 800 years ago or whatever. Oh, yeah, that's right. Near the end when they're going at it, right? The Heath and the Bing. I think it was... No, wasn't it at a... Oh, it might have been at the stadium. Yeah, it's at the stadium.
Starting point is 00:13:59 Didn't they do a thing at a big feast where they had a sing-along as well? Yeah, and it was... Everything I do, I'll do it for you. No, that was another movie. I think they just reprised Moulin Rouge. What if that was Heath Ledger's last movie? Would then people have made a big deal? Yeah, would that be the movie that people would have gone and seen?
Starting point is 00:14:26 I think that's a very, very good question. And I... You know what? Ten things I hate about Heath Ledger. Go. I think that would have... That movie would have grossed $500 million. If he was a guy on the rise and then he died during the filming of A Knight's Tale, everybody would have went
Starting point is 00:14:41 and gone and seen it and said, what a brilliant performance it was. Why so serious? Exactly. Have you seen the one with the curious george why so curious have you seen the one yahoo serious is the joker no really yeah that's really anyway uh but uh it's yeah like so anyway so maybe maybe maybe not on the heath ledger front right no no it was really great. He was really good as a Joker. Hey, we were going to talk we were going to do like an end of summer movie wrap up but let's get to know you first.
Starting point is 00:15:11 But wait, did we finish our Bumbershoot recap? We stayed at another gentleman's house, very generous of him. Dark Canyon, London. He had a cat that was 18 years old. Wow. Slowest moving cat. It moved like one of those things from Dark Canyon, London. Yeah, that had a cat that was... 18 years old? Yeah, 18 years old. Wow.
Starting point is 00:15:26 Slowest moving cat. It moved like one of those things from Star Wars, Empire Strikes Back. That's, yeah, that was just, what do you, the big robot things that move super slow and then they... Imperial walkers? Yes. Yeah. Yeah. It was just like an Imperial, and it tried to escape, remember? Yeah, it wanted outside, you know what, it probably wanted outside to go find a bush to die in. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:15:45 but we wouldn't let it. We wouldn't let it. We said not today. You are living another year. Well, that's cruel. Well, not by us. We were just interlopers. I'm not judging you. I'm not judging anyone, especially this guy. I don't know. He's a pretty cool guy. He had a fold-up
Starting point is 00:16:01 bike, which I really... I used to have one of those. Did it fold up into a box, almost like yay big? Like three bread boxes? How about yay? Yeah. If you're not one of the people in our room right now,
Starting point is 00:16:16 yay is about yay. Yeah. Let's get to know Dave. I'm still recapping stuff i did this summer uh but here's talking about movies oh no go ahead here's something we can uh i can share with david milchard a couple weeks ago i went to go see the uh english rock group from Oxfordshire known as Radiohead. And I saw them at UBC's Thunderbird Stadium, an outdoor venue, in
Starting point is 00:16:50 a torrential downpour. That's the way Tom York looks best, is when there's a lot of water between you and him. When your vision's blurred. And you're shivering. And you're a million miles away.
Starting point is 00:17:06 And I've seen them. How many times have you seen them? I've seen them three times. All at Thunderbird? Yeah, all at the T-Bird. Yeah, I saw them. They've done three there. And I saw them once before at the Pacific Coliseum.
Starting point is 00:17:23 Yeah. I've never seen them. That's fine. And this was the least pleasant. Well, I might have to get in an argument with you. Please do, because the essence of drama is conflict.
Starting point is 00:17:39 Well, I thought it was fantastic. Man vs. Man, this one is, right? It's not Man vs. Himself or Man vs. Nature. You thought it was fantastic? I thought it was an amazing show. I thought the raining, you know, although, yes, it would be nice if it was warmer. Right. But there's something about being at a show, sharing an experience when you're soaking wet, you're cold.
Starting point is 00:18:03 Everyone was sticking around. I didn't see too many people leaving early. I mean, there was a bit of a rush when they did that one end. I know, suckers. And I knew that they were going to do two encores. I knew because they did the year before. Or not the year before, but the last time they were here. Right.
Starting point is 00:18:18 And so I embraced the cold. My girlfriend was there. And she was really, really cold. Did you dress for it? Well, here's the cold. My girlfriend was there, and she was really, really cold. Did you dress for it? Well, here's the thing. She said, is it going to rain? And I said, why don't you make that call yourself? If you're worried about the rain.
Starting point is 00:18:35 You're a grown-up. Or are you dating a child? Well, yeah, I just left a conclusion. Well, I mean, you know, women. Wow. We might get a lot of calls. Yes. Well, you will.
Starting point is 00:18:49 Right. But I sort of put that out there. It could rain. But I'm not bringing anything. But by all means, go ahead. Bring an umbrella. Bring whatever you've got to bring. Wear the raincoat.
Starting point is 00:19:00 But not an umbrella. An umbrella is a terrible idea. Everyone behind you would hate you. Yeah, I suppose. But where we were sitting, we were going up on the hill, you know, on the left-hand side. So we made sure we wanted to be high up so there was no one behind us. We actually had a great, great spot. And it was amazing.
Starting point is 00:19:15 The show, the sound, come on. The last two times I saw them, they had that. Come on. Okay, good point. It sounded fine. Can I just say that during that little story, I just had a snack. I just put down my microphone and had a snack and came back. We have a bowl of spinach dip and some French bread.
Starting point is 00:19:36 Delightful. I'm not going to argue, but that was just the least enjoyable time I've seen them. The last two times were really great. But I've noticed they just seem to do the exact same old songs. I don't like their new songs. Nobody does. Good point, Graham. And they've done all the
Starting point is 00:19:53 same old songs every time. And so I feel like maybe next time I'm not going to go. Are you crazy? No, I'm not. You are. No, I'm not a crazy person. You're totally crazy. Can I move on? No right come on i don't know why you would open up this can of woeims i'm not a crazy person go ahead how can you say first of all they've got so many songs you can't not help but hear some of the same songs because
Starting point is 00:20:17 they've got so many so you're like i don't know what what you just said my logic your logic is that their variety of songs leads you to always hear the same ones over and over. Because they play them so many times. Right, but shouldn't they... And they played a lot of their new songs. I know, I don't like their new songs. I like their old songs, but every time I see them...
Starting point is 00:20:39 But then what you're saying is then you'll get mad because you want to hear... Oh yeah, that's true actually because you want to hear the same songs. I want to hear different old songs. Every time I see them, they play the same old songs. And every little thing they do is magic. Anyways, let's move on.
Starting point is 00:20:55 Do-do-do-do-da-da-da. You also saw Oasis. Oh, yeah, they were great. Really? Yep, they were amazing. I'm a big fan, so I'm a little bit biased brian top five british rock bands of the 90s go what in order no uh i don't fucking know blur maybe they were pretty big pulp i liked uh top five four letter british rock
Starting point is 00:21:20 bands of the 90s blur pulp i'm working on it bush no i don't like Bush. They were Australian. Reef. No. Garbage I liked. Not Four Letters. You haven't even mentioned the Beatles. Of the 90s. Sorry, I didn't hear that part.
Starting point is 00:21:38 I guess Radiohead would put Radiohead in there. I liked their album before Standing on the Shoulder to the Giants was really, that was a super popular song and I was living over in Ireland at the time. So it was unavoidable.
Starting point is 00:21:54 Here's the thing with Oasis. It was a top hit. They sound like they should sound like. And that's the biggest thing when you go see a live act. Chumbawamba, that was the other one I wanted to say. Menswear? Iumbawamba. That was the other one I wanted to say. Menswear. I get knocked down. Echo Bell.
Starting point is 00:22:10 Supergrass. Supergrass is great. Wait for it. Stone Roses? What? I can't believe that I'm even in this room with you this room The Manchester sound never caught on Well, Ian Brown could never sing live
Starting point is 00:22:30 Get the London look Rimmel Rimmel, that's right So Spice Girls? Yeah, Spice Girls were great That goes without saying I wasn't going to break the
Starting point is 00:22:44 I was going to break the lid on the Spice Girls thing, but I'm glad you did. Well, someone's got to. I like Pope a lot. Pope, I think, was my favorite English band of the 90s. What did you think of Oasis? I didn't go to Oasis. Oh. I knew better.
Starting point is 00:22:58 You know what would be awesome is if they got rid of Liam Gallagher. Yeah, they should replace him. If they had just Nolan, then a new guy. No, no. They should replace him with the lead singer of Skunk Anansi. Liam sounds awesome when he sings. But he's kind of, he's just like a lot of people sound awesome
Starting point is 00:23:11 when they sing, but his unawesomeness when he doesn't sing almost outweighs his awesomeness when he sings. Don't you think? No. I like it when he chooses to just stay back in England and buy a house. What's that? You guys just don't get the fun in all of that.
Starting point is 00:23:28 What I like about Oasis is that their lead guitarist, Noel Gallagher, is a terrible, terrible lead guitarist. Yeah, and he admits it. And that's why he doesn't do intricate solos or anything. He's just like, I'm not like... But doesn't he write all the music?
Starting point is 00:23:43 He writes all the lyrics and everything. He drives the tour bus. He does the catering. He does everything. He cuts the hair. Yeah, he combs Liam's hair. He does the whole fucking thing. He's a real...
Starting point is 00:23:53 He's a go-to guy. Yeah. There's no Noel Coward. Fine. Who is? Exactly. I will concede that. All right.
Starting point is 00:24:01 How much money do you think he has, Noel Coward? Noel Coward? More... Well, what do you he has, Noel Coward? Noel Coward? More... Well, what do you think? It's on par? Noel Coward? What do you think? Apologies to anyone who didn't care about Britpop.
Starting point is 00:24:14 Can you apologize right to my face? Because I'm sitting right here. Okay. Graham, let's get to know you. Well, we kind of did. I was... A little bit. I was sitting on the bumbershoot thing.
Starting point is 00:24:24 You get sweaty when you cross borders. and uh and I slept in that was the weird thing too is because the one the first place we stayed in Kevin hiders house yeah I didn't realize that the family was host to exchange students so the products on the shelf in the room that I was staying in were very incongruous with the rest of the house. The rest of the house was very homey and Americana. And then this shelf was filled with... There was something called... What was it called?
Starting point is 00:24:56 Dick cheese. No, it was called China Getty. Seriously, it was called something like that. That's what they put in the lances in Night's Tale. In the Night's Tale. And then they had all these very Chinese products. Now, I'm not... You know, I was tired.
Starting point is 00:25:14 It was 3, 4 in the morning. But it was Asian products. Ooh, Elastica. I liked Elastica. Yeah, that one song. Fucking one song? That's all they had. No, the whole first album's really good.
Starting point is 00:25:29 You just wanted to have sex with them. You wanted to have intercourse with both of them. I wanted to... I remember when I was in high school, there was an interview. We're derailing your Seattle thing. You know what? I'm going to re-rail it. I don't want to hear your story.
Starting point is 00:25:44 Right now. Yeah, I'm re-rarail it. I don't want to hear your story. Right now. Yeah, I'm re-railing it. I was looking at the shelf. The first two Travis albums are pretty good, too. Fuck Travis. Travis is good. Travis!
Starting point is 00:25:54 No, now you guys are just being silly. Why does it always rain on me? I can't sing it. It sounds a lot better. They were all right. Yeah, yeah, yeah, sure. That guy was really ugly.
Starting point is 00:26:03 Really ugly. Captain of the Uggos. But I was looking at the shelf in this room, and it was all Chinese products, and then every book on the shelf, calculus or computer programming. You're just being racial. You're being racial. Yeah, but you didn't see the shelf. I'm not being racial.
Starting point is 00:26:22 I'm being racist. It's a different... different no it's true it was all a computer programming languages or calculus so i felt in the morning when i was asking kevin heider i was like do you guys because maybe it's just somebody who in the family was really good at math and then they were enthusiasts of the chinese culture i don't fucking know we know it wasn't kevin no because he had. Because he had no sense of math. He had no math. No math at all.
Starting point is 00:26:47 But so I really tiptoed around it in the morning where I was like, now I don't want to sound weird, but do you guys have like a, did you have a border? Maybe. You should be a cop. That was very, you know, for you to be that observant to notice this. Are you excited about the new De Niro Pacino movie? What is it?
Starting point is 00:27:09 The Dennehy Leguizamo? Isn't that what you call it? The Dennehy Leguizamo Project? It's Righteous Kill, it's called. Righteous Kill. I'm not. That sounds like America. I'm not because...
Starting point is 00:27:20 I'm sorry, America. When was the last time that Al Pacino made a good movie? Go. Heat. Okay, so how long ago was that? I don't know. The 1994? Oh, that was a long time ago.
Starting point is 00:27:30 But it had Robert De Niro, who really centers Al Pacino. Yeah, you're right. He does. How do you know this? Have you seen their feng shui on set? They are pretty good, aren't they? Yeah, they shui it up feng style. Feng style? Well, it's probably going to, they schway it up, Fung style. Fang style?
Starting point is 00:27:48 Well, it's probably going to be both their last movies. That's my prediction. That's a bold prediction. Let's close it on that. Do you want to move on to Overheard? Yes. Overheard. Alright, welcome back to Overheard. Overheard. All right. Welcome back to Overheard. Overheard, David.
Starting point is 00:28:09 I've explained to you kind of how it works. Bits and pieces of conversation that you may have heard that are hilarious. Okay. I don't know if you have one offhand. If not, we can come to him last. Yeah, we can go to you last. Yeah, I'll think about it. Maybe we'll get Dave to start and then come to me and then we'll go to him.
Starting point is 00:28:24 Now that I'm snacking on something. Oh, do you want me to start? Please. Okay. This one was from over in England. I was in a McDonald's. And over, I should say this as a little, just kind of in the background, the McDonald's over in the UK are very hip-looking.
Starting point is 00:28:45 They look like the cooler kind of cafes that you would go into. The Cactus Club of McDonald's. No, like actual cool. The California Pizza Kitchen. Yes, yes, whatever that is. That sounds... But you know the hip coffee shops on Main Street? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:01 They look like that, only then you you're like where am i and then you look and then there's a mcdonald's menu on the wall it's really weird it's very deceiving and they've all got they've got wi-fi and there's people in there yeah all the servers have ironic mustaches it's it's really weird like it doesn't it's uh their mcdonald's evolved at like a different pace than the mcdonald's over here anyways uh i was in the mcdonald's and there was a woman kind of admonishing her kid for you know kind of well just very quietly about uh what things you should and shouldn't say to people and why you know and uh this was this woman was saying to her daughter it's not nice to call somebody fat because they might not know that they're fat i don't think
Starting point is 00:29:48 that's why you don't say it i think you say it out of a decency of humanity not that oh do they know they're fat i shouldn't say anything blow their mind it could be too much of a surprise did it sound like it made sense because she was speaking in a British accent? A lot of things did. And then a lot of things There's a lot of Mary Poppins kind of like wisdom going on. If I counted the number of times I heard the phrase chim chim charoo
Starting point is 00:30:15 A spoonful of sugar does help a lot of things. That's their whole anti-drug program out there. A spoonful of sugar. Dot, dot, dot. Helps the medicine go down. Rose, okay.
Starting point is 00:30:29 Rose? Don't call me Rose. Rose. Don't. Start with me. Can we role play? Some Golden Girls? And if you threw a party, come on.
Starting point is 00:30:41 Invite everyone you knew. Oh, you guys, hey, you guys know it. You do know it. You know that that's a real song? Like, that's not just the theme to the Golden Girls? That's like what, like Rita McNeil wrote it or something? No, it's like it's from the 70s, and I heard it on, like, the old man station here, 650 CL.
Starting point is 00:31:00 You know AM600 is actually an even older man station? Yeah, no, that's my favorite thing thing is sometimes I would listen to the old time and then I'd go even farther back. And then if you listen to CBC Radio 2, it'd go back to people who are now in catacombs. Because it's all classical. So you could get all the stages of old people all in one morning. But yeah, that's a real song.
Starting point is 00:31:20 There's like other lyrics in it. I wonder how high it got on the charts. I bet you it was at number one. Yeah thank you for being a friend no other way it's way more like that that was a cover that was done for the theme song sung by a woman but the original sung by a man yeah and oh really it has a lot of swears and uh like right wing agenda in it so if you fucking bomb vietnam i'll come after you don't you fucking take my gun away um here's the thing that what if your favorite song right now whatever it is okay can i uh can we all think take five seconds and think of our favorite song right now okay okay no wait Okay. No, wait. Okay.
Starting point is 00:32:06 All right. So your favorite song right now, whatever it may be. Sure. Imagine 10 years from now, it is the theme song to a show that is the worst fucking thing. Like the worst goddamn show that you've ever seen. Like whatever that song is that you hold you know pretty close to your heart for whatever reason suddenly and it's not even the original it's covered by like some lounge singer doing your favorite song that's the intro and it and the
Starting point is 00:32:34 intro is accompanied by like wacky clips of these old broads dropping like because in the future it's going to be way more graphic right so she's going to open a cupboard and vibrators are just going to fall all over the floor that's your evolution of sitcom comedy right there right sexual toys yeah it's going to be her it's good that's going to be the one character's thing is every door she opens like she'll be on a plane somebody like can you get my scarf from the overhead compartment and then just vibrators will just fall or like whatever double dong and then imagine that your favorite song is like the bumper between scenes just like a little riff from your favorite song my favorite song is the theme to golden girls does that affect things well played um dave overheard uh my overheard is actually an overseen. Yeah, you can do that too.
Starting point is 00:33:26 Crazy things you've seen. Because I have my headphones in at all times, and I don't hear as much. I'm trying to shut out the world. That's what it sounds like to me. Oh, I'm dangerously introverted. Except on this. You wouldn't know. If you're dangerously introverted
Starting point is 00:33:47 what happens well perhaps dangerous he's just trying to make himself sound dangerous I'm trying to get a little poonday some poony some poony some poonanny you guys don't know but we've got a cover over our head
Starting point is 00:34:04 right now. We had a flashlight for this part of the show. And now I'm holding the talking stick. So talk. All right. Boo-nanny. Boo-nanny. Boo-nanny.
Starting point is 00:34:16 There was a dog abducted this summer that got news. That was big news. Yeah. Across the pond. No. Was it? No. Okay. No, it was actually when I came back, I think. No? Sure. Yeah, it was late August
Starting point is 00:34:32 and there was a dog abducted. There were a series of dog abductions and one of them I guess the owners had put up like $5,000 reward and it got news and they put up posters everywhere But it was this dog named Liza that was
Starting point is 00:34:50 It's a Boston Terrier. So I thought you're gonna say that she was a Boston Manali No one I wasn't gonna say that Liza a Boston Terrier was abduct abducted from, I think, Yaletown in Vancouver. And they had little details of the dog. It was like 15 pounds and black and white and three years old and neutered. Or I guess spayed. But the detail that I noticed was it had a tattoo that said Thug Life across its belly. Whoa, really?
Starting point is 00:35:30 Yeah. Oh, that's outstanding. Because my dog is tattooed in the ear. There's like two ways I think you can get your dog identified. Tattooed, and it has a microchip in its back. Your dog has a microchip in its back? But it also has a tattoo right above its ass that says in its back your dog has a microchip in his back but it also has a tattoo right above its ass that's this celtic your dog has gps then yeah basically so what
Starting point is 00:35:51 happens then if it gets kidnapped you can track it down no if it gets uh not kidnapped but if if like dog napped i'm sorry no if it ends up at a pound they can scan it it, and then they'll know who to call. Is that when you bought them? Is that what they did, too? They just ran it through the scanner at the store? Yeah. There you go. He's got a barcode.
Starting point is 00:36:14 But I didn't know... And his tattoo is in his ear. Yeah, but then they got an actual tattoo. Yeah, I didn't know you could do that. That seems cruel. It seems asinine. That's like giving a baby a tattoo. But I wonder if it's a do that. That seems cruel. It seems asinine. That's like giving a baby a tattoo.
Starting point is 00:36:27 But I wonder if it's a... Isn't it? Yeah. I wonder if it's just like thug life written really quick across his belly, or if it's really intricate like Tupac has thug life. Yeah. Or had. Wink, wink. I think the only requisite that you should have when you get a tattoo
Starting point is 00:36:43 is that you be able to read. That, I think, is you should be able to say the thing that's actually tattooed on your body. Although... Well, some dogs can talk. No, if the dog could go, talk, life, then I'd be like, okay. My girlfriend's grandparents have a dog that says, I love you, and I swear to God, it says, I love you. Well, if it had tattooed on its stomach, I love you, that'd be cool.
Starting point is 00:37:07 It'd be cool. It's unbelievable. I've never heard it. Anything sounds so crazy in my life that I'm like a little terrier, go, I love you! Scooby-Doo should have some tattoos. That's the only talking dog I know. Here's, what about Astra? And Droopy.
Starting point is 00:37:25 Tattoos. I couldn't do a tattoo. No, me neither. Graham, do you have any tattoos? No. I talked about that on the last podcast. I wasn't listening. Yeah, you weren't listening because, why weren't you listening?
Starting point is 00:37:38 Oh, because there was a few, we were here, Dylan Ryan was talking a lot. Yeah, he did a lot of talking. There was a split on the uh maximum fun board over there some people loved it one person liked it one person didn't yeah and then i multiplied that by a few to make it sound more controversial all right one to some that's how i do it yeah that's pretty good you boost ratings um here's a here's a up to 19 000 that's what i'm looking for yeah what do we uh it was was Oliver was one of the guys. No, it wasn't.
Starting point is 00:38:07 Oliver's the guy that comments on the blog all the time. Oliver might be a girl. Yeah, it's because it's spelled two L's. And there's like a female email address associated with it. Yeah, well, whoever he, she is really on the ball. Must say. Probably the most responding-est person out there. Responding-est.
Starting point is 00:38:29 Maybe everyone else should comment on our blogs. Totally. You should if you've got the time. Yeah. Or the wherewithal. Or a computer. Yeah. Those are the three things you need.
Starting point is 00:38:41 Time, wherewithal, and the computer. Where do you get wherewithal? I don't know. PetSmart. Hey, here's the thing, wherewithal, and the computer. Where do you get wherewithal? I don't know. PetSmart. Hey, here's the thing about PetSmart, speaking of which. Do they sell pets at PetSmart? I don't think so. They don't.
Starting point is 00:38:51 Remember when we were trying to figure that out? Yeah, we saw a giant... It's a huge, giant box, and they don't have any pets in it. Yeah, it was the biggest PetSmart I've ever seen. I think they sell fish, maybe. But this PetSmart was the size of its own kind of like... It was a grocery store. Yeah, it was huge. That's the thing about America.
Starting point is 00:39:09 When you go in and... Well, it's the same in Canada, for that matter. But you go to all these giant box stores, so you can't help but not buy lots of stuff. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's the whole agenda. You have to have a car to go there to buy 24 cans of mushroom Campbell's soup.
Starting point is 00:39:27 And then good luck getting over the border with all those mushrooms. Yeah, you're not allowed to have them. Totally. Dave, did you conjure up an overheard during all that? Well, I can. It involves my bedroom. I like it. This is good.
Starting point is 00:39:42 Is this an overheard or a fantasy? No, this is a nightmare. my bedroom. I like it. This is good. Is this an overheard or a fantasy? No, this is a nightmare. We live in an apartment building. I'm very grateful to have a home. However, I wish the walls were thicker because our bedroom
Starting point is 00:40:00 is directly opposite of our neighbor's bedroom. And he has... Is he a single and that show anyway and he's he's got allergies and he's asthmatic and all sorts of things so we always hear him cough always hear him cough, like constantly. Not a pleasant cough. It's not a pleasant cough. And so it's really upsetting because, A, it's gross, but then also I know that he can hear us. Right.
Starting point is 00:40:35 Yeah, yeah, yeah. And it... What do you do in there? Well, I mean... What goes on? It's the bedroom, so there is... The boudoir. There's heavy petting.
Starting point is 00:40:44 And, you know, it's embarrassing because I know. And I don't know about you guys, but I'm quiet. I'm a quiet guy. Lover. You mean a quiet lover. A gentle lover. Quiet in that situation. In the PG-13 going on, maybe.
Starting point is 00:41:00 Maybe are, depending. I don't know. Men have learned to be quiet through our extra-collicular? Collicular. You're right. I scream at myself. If I don't do it, it's very tribal the way I do it. You put paint on.
Starting point is 00:41:18 That explains your face tattoos. There's a lot of screaming when I do it. By the end, you want to call the cops. You think that something bad... I'm knocking shit off the wall. You're hoping. That'll be your ultimate climax is when you get arrested. If somebody arrests you. God forbid anybody
Starting point is 00:41:36 walks in the room and finds me passed out in the corner with my helmet on. There's fucking pieces of drywall everywhere. So that's my overheard story. That's what I hear. What's his overheard story. That's what I hear. What's his overheard story? I want to hear that. Bring him in, I guess.
Starting point is 00:41:52 Do you see him? Oh, yeah. I put the cough to the face. Okay. And so he probably puts the weeping to the face. I assume it's weeping. And it doesn't help that my girlfriend's Italian. She's always throwing pizza down.
Starting point is 00:42:07 Yeah, when she's getting to the end, she does the... Obey Wario, destroy Mario. That's on special nights. I think that a great way, if you have that thin wall, is to get one of those little party favors that you get on New Year's Eve. And that's the way, when you're finished, that you do that noise. And then they'll just be like, what a fun couple. Would you wear the glasses that have 2008 across them?
Starting point is 00:42:44 Yeah, and I'd count down. Alright, do you want to move on? Don't we have an overheard from a listener? Oh yeah, we do have an overheard from a listener. Alright, let's play that. Hi, this is Ben. I just found an overheard that I think is worth sharing. I was getting my hair cut and there was a girl next
Starting point is 00:43:06 to me and she she her phone rang so she answered it and then it was I guess her friend or something and she said oh can I call you back I just stopped in for a haircut uh and when she hung up I guess she said that she was on her way there and decided that she needed a haircut. And of course, you know, I thought that was a little bit weird because a haircut normally takes 20 minutes or 30 minutes for a girl. So I'm sorry you just stopped it for. Not the most interesting overheard, but I thought it was weird.
Starting point is 00:43:46 You got that right, Ben Gold. That was weird. So it was the fact that she was saying, oh, I just stopped in to get my hair cut. That was the thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The fact that it was impromptu, I believe, was the funny part.
Starting point is 00:44:03 I would like to be alone. I don't want to dissect it. Thank you for calling. Yeah, thanks for calling. I like the... The thing that I like about it is that I would like to start using that line to people in the future. That I just say things are impromptu. Like, oh, I'll be right there.
Starting point is 00:44:19 But I just stopped in for eight hours of work at this warehouse. When you said you wanted to do that in the future, I thought you were going to go with, oh, I just stopped in to farm a human soul or something. Something futuristic. Oh, something in the future, right, yeah. I just stopped in for some nutrition pills. Something called Gleep Chlor.
Starting point is 00:44:42 What segment next? We, I have, well, we have, something called Gleep Glorp. What segment next? I have... Well, we have... Because somebody actually requested it, I came up with some celebrity odds. Oh, cool. Which we haven't done for a while. And we have that great theme song
Starting point is 00:44:57 that's just sitting somewhere in the catacombs sung by a young Charlie DeBanders. Remember? Was he ever so young? He was once exactly that young. But, okay, so Celebrity Odds is I've come up with some possible
Starting point is 00:45:12 celebrity scenarios. You tell me what you think the Vegas odds are that it'll happen. Let's play the theme song. Let's play the theme song. Celebrity Celebrity Odds Charlie Demers God I miss him

Starting point is 00:46:06 Thank you. In the new series, of course, they brought back Shannon Doherty made a guest appearance. Jenny Garth. She was the blonde one? She was the pretty one. This is my prediction, is that the new 90210 will feature

I wonder what trouble Bones and Booth are going to get into. They shot it in London? Yeah. Trans-Atlantic. So Bones is the one with the guy from Buffy the Vampire Slayer?
Starting point is 00:47:02 Yep. Angel. Yeah. Booth. Angel Booth. His name's Angel Booth. Angel Booth. His name's Angel Booth. Angel Booth. And Bones is...
Starting point is 00:47:09 That's his last name. Is his name Jeremy Bones or something? No, her name is Squints Bones. No, it's not! Yes, it is. Oh, that would be the worst best. Okay. This next one is about Jennifer Aniston.
Starting point is 00:47:22 And she's Zooey Deschanel's sister. I don't know what that means. I don't know what anything... Because Zooey is foxy. Who is she? She's Bones' sister. Oh, she's... You know who Zooey Deschanel is.
Starting point is 00:47:35 Do I? Because I seem confused. She was in Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Elf? She was an elf? Yeah, she's got really... Oh, Will Ferrell. Is that who you're talking about okay i'm talking
Starting point is 00:47:46 about who was will ferrell's dad james conn yes james conn yeah james conn that's connie moving down the list of celebrities jennifer aniston because she was dating previously she was dating she started with brad pitt right yeah right she moved on to vince vaughn right then she moved way down the list to John Mayer. Did she have anyone in between? I don't know. I have a feeling that guy from the Mac commercials was somewhere in there, but that might have been Drew Barrymore.
Starting point is 00:48:12 Yeah, and he's currently with someone else. He's with Kiki D. I met Kirsten Dunst. I mean the nerdy one. Oh, is he really? Yeah. Old snail, too. John Hodgman?
Starting point is 00:48:21 John Hodgman, yeah. Just the long dumped or got dumped by Drew Barrymore? I don't know who dumped who, but he's now with Kirsten Dunst. Really? Kirsten Dunst, to be perfectly honest. Old snaggletooth. Do you guys not read the celebrity blogs? No, but I wish I did.
Starting point is 00:48:37 Okay. I think she will continue moving down the celebrity ranks uh the next one she will date will be colin hanks followed shortly by david faustino and rounding it out with one of the gaudies what do you think uh i yeah i don't know that specifically you're right but you think it'll continue like the downward trend will continue she's doing a guest spot on 30 rock I noticed if
Starting point is 00:49:12 30 rock will have her otherwise they said they would put her on whatever show right is open how I met your mother right I don't know what that means I'm gonna say long odds on that, buddy. Like 40 to 1. You think she's going to go back up?
Starting point is 00:49:27 I think she's going to go back up for sure. Yeah? What do you think is going to be the catalyst? She's yo-yoing. Is she going to get another show or something? You know what? I don't think that she might. I don't think that she's going to get another show.
Starting point is 00:49:36 She doesn't need the money. She doesn't need the money. I think that she's just going to meet a powerhouse celebrity that's always wanted a banger. Yeah. Oh, you mean like somebody grew up watching friends and is like this is my show kind of like the ashton kutcher demi war it's gonna be somebody like that's just hot and that's gonna want to be with her because he's always had a crush yeah situation absolutely or maybe just uh it is jennifer a rich dude maybe not a celebrity
Starting point is 00:50:01 but like like cindy crawfordford ended up with some rich dude. And maybe J. Ann will do the same. I call her J. Ann. Jan. Yeah. How about... Do you have a nickname based on your name? Do I?
Starting point is 00:50:17 Yeah. Jeke. Oh, yeah. No, I have a lot of... None of the J-Lo situations, but I have many, many, many nicknames. Okay. I have a lot. I'm with you on that.
Starting point is 00:50:29 I got a lot. My favorite being one that Phil Hanley came up with, which was GCDC, which I thought was pretty cool. That was good. And you're Milchie? Milchie's one. Milk Bag. Milk Bag.
Starting point is 00:50:40 Milker. Milky D. Milky D. I like that. I get so many milk references. Homo, it's unbelievable. Oh, that's harsh. 2%.
Starting point is 00:50:48 2% for a long time. That one stuck. 2%. But Homo didn't stay. But Homo didn't stay. Well, it's probably because I didn't respond to it very often.
Starting point is 00:50:58 Yeah, yeah. And Bagger. Like Milk Bagger? Milk Bags. And then someone called me Bagger. Your last name is Milchard. And then someone called me bagger all the time. Your last name is Milchard. Yeah. Milch is German for milk.
Starting point is 00:51:09 Yeah. But where does bags come from? I don't know. High school, I was called Milkshake in high school, like grade nine. And you brought all the boys to the yard. Oh, my. Awesome. Well done.
Starting point is 00:51:23 And it just went from there. It went, like, honestly, it went from there it went like honestly went from and somehow in university someone asked me the question like what was your nickname and so i'll milk back and then away it went that's the those university kids can be so cruel well they can be they weren't your real friends it was a frat hazen my last celebrity was actually frat hazen um the last celebrity odds He was actually Frat Hazen The last celebrity odds Is Michael Phelps Phelpsy My Phelp Will be the first athlete
Starting point is 00:51:56 To appear on The View shirtless That's I don't know the view Specifically Who is the blonde girl Elizabeth Hatzelbeck She should be shot With a gun I don't know the view. Yeah, specifically. Okay, who is the blonde girl? Elizabeth Hatzelbeck. Yeah, she should be shot.
Starting point is 00:52:07 All right. With a gun? With Michael Phelps' face. Or a camera. A tranq dart. No, maybe a camera. She's picturing. But that is hilarious. He's going to take off his clothes?
Starting point is 00:52:19 Well, no, that's my prediction. Oh, I actually believed you because that's something that I think could actually happen on The View. That's what I'm saying. I'm saying it's a one-to-one. What do you say? I don't know. Would they have him at this point? It's been two weeks.
Starting point is 00:52:31 No, because it's all heating up, right? Now the thing is the celebrity, they want to embrace him temporarily. So there's a lot of celebrities. They've already made a DVD about him. You know that? NBC is selling a DVD about Michael Phelps. Even during the Olympics? Well, only during the Olympics.
Starting point is 00:52:48 That's when they were selling it. But then there was some celebrity gal who said that she thought he was cute. So he's going to be put through the mill. My favorite possibility, and I know I've brought up this movie more than once on this podcast, but that somebody would bankroll a film a la jim carter starring michael phelps where the power of his swimming overcomes bad guys it was really only all of the bad guys were in the water no but that's what i mean like so like they're in a submarine right and michael phelps plays like a periscope operator or whatever and then like
Starting point is 00:53:22 somebody shoots torpedoes at the sub that they're on and they're like yeah he's got he's got to out swim the torpedoes damn the torpedo i wouldn't be surprised you know wouldn't that be amazing like if somebody bankrolled it and he got paid like whatever five hundred thousand dollars or whatever to do he doesn't need the money he doesn't need the money but wouldn't that be great? Well, of course it would be great, Graham, but you're living in a pipe dream. You're living inside... What about Mark Spitz? Can I get Mark Spitz? Is he still alive?
Starting point is 00:53:51 A pipe dream. Sure, you can get Mark Spitz. Can you believe, though, that he got eight golds? Yes. He's phenomenal. You don't think that he cheated? I spent a lot of time believing. What about that shot of the... I think it was a German swimmer. I'm not sure what nationality.
Starting point is 00:54:07 But an overhead shot of Michael Phelps and this other swimmer. And he won by a hundredth of a point. A hundredth of a point. It was ridiculous. And he did look completely unorthodox, right? A quarter of a second earlier, he looked like he wasn't even in the race. Yeah. A quarter of a second earlier, he looked like he wasn't even in the race.
Starting point is 00:54:23 Yeah. And it just so happens that Omega, who are his sponsor... Sponsor also controlled the official timing. Now, this is the thing. Of course, of fucking course, the Olympics doesn't... I will go on record as saying that the Olympics has nothing to fucking do with anything. It's not about sports it's about making like generating them the most amount of money not the winter olympics though winter olympics are about hey how can we get more olympics and if they could have a fall olympics
Starting point is 00:54:56 where it's like the 200 meter leaf dash they would they would but they they're not brave enough um but it's fucking... My favorite Winter Olympics sport is wood chipping. When they take old Christmas trees. Why don't they have the lumberjack games in the Olympics? They have the 200-yard hot toddy. Remember that? Yeah, you know what? You're totally right. You might as well have lumberjack in the Olympics.
Starting point is 00:55:21 Yeah. That is more of a sport... I will say for sure that that's more of a sport than than equestrian equestrian to me is so not you might as well have car racing at that point yeah you're just riding a thing that's doing all the work for you and that was so jackassy when that was like one of our golds and when i we're suddenly are all we're all of a sudden about equestrian here in canada we all of a sudden give a shit about that? Remember Big Ben? Big Ben, that's right.
Starting point is 00:55:46 How many golds did we get? Four? I don't know. What am I, the Olympics police? Four golds. Something like that. The worst country, golds-wise. Let's see, you know what? I don't...
Starting point is 00:55:57 But the number one country for oils-wise. So if there was... Yeah, mostly baby seal oil. Yes yes here's uh another question all right or statement or something the bolt the usain bolt yeah you know why he held like everybody you know that you heard the thing of why he held off from trying to like shatter that first record and i didn't hear this because usain bolt for anyone who doesn't know is the winner of the world record holder for 100 and 200 meter olympic olympic runs he's jamaican jamaican insanely crazy he's jamaican dave crazy and he's insanely fast and
Starting point is 00:56:40 whatever and so like he he ran in the first race and then he held back at the end right he kind of showboated a bit and everybody was like well why why would it why you know and everybody really came down on him but apparently his sponsor uh whoever it is that you know like uh pays him whatever sponsorship pays him more not an aa sponsor every time that he breaks the world record that's not the first time he's broken the record Every time he breaks the record He gets like a million dollars So he'll break his own record again So if he shatters the record
Starting point is 00:57:14 That he can never catch up again That's it That's the last payout he's getting Well he's pretty smart for a Jamaican Whoa Can we put like an awooga horn there like that like when he goes that's pretty smart for jamaica and then it goes yeah i like that come on we're just having fun here um so we have another bit that we are another um sure uh should we try the twisted tune yeah sure
