And it's a cool town.
It's my nephew's name.
Really?
Jasper.
Which nephew?
My tiny little nephew.
He's only two.
He's going to eventually.
No, he's three.
That was a lie.
My nephew Jasper.
My nephew Jasper.
Okay.
Well, don't set me up for failure.
Okay. Shall we get't set me up for failure. Okay.
Shall we get to know us?
Yeah.
Get to know us.
Now, Amy, I understand that you shot a pilot in the face.
Who told you that?
I always set myself up for that joke, and I love it.
You told me that just seconds ago.
You were like, you set me up for this great story.
Okay, crap.
Yeah, we just shot a pilot.
My comedy partner, Ryan Steele, and I just shot our dream, our lifelong dream sketch comedy pilot.
That's amazing.
It really is.
I'm like, we just wrapped a few days ago
on Friday.
That kind of wrap?
Okay,
that's quite enough.
I should have never done this.
Regret coming,
like,
deep.
Yeah,
exactly.
Coming to you in waves now.
Yeah.
No,
but we did a wrap,
sorry,
what did I say?
Why did you say wrap? You said we just wrapped a few days ago. Okay, quite enough. Yeah, no, we did a wrap, uh, sorry. Uh, what did I say? Why did you say wrap?
You said we just wrapped a few days ago.
Okay.
Quite enough.
Yeah.
No, the first time was awful.
So, um, we finished, uh, shooting our pilot.
Nope.
We finished shooting our pilot a few days ago.
Uh, and, oh, actually no, we finished shooting our pilot a month ago.
I forget what day it is today.
Right.
April 1st.
Yep.
And, uh, and, uh, yeah, it was a dream.
Like, this was our honest, like, both childhood dreams to do this.
And a production company finally said yes and gave us a little bit of money for production.
And we shot it.
And we worked with some amazing local comedians that we've been dying to work with like this.
That's great.
Yeah.
We're super excited.
So, how does it work?
Do you go to a production company and say, well, you have this idea, and then they go, yay, or they find you?
Good question.
Thank you.
So we always thought that it was like, as we were trying to figure out how to navigate through this industry, we always thought like, someone's just going to see our stuff.
And the more content we produce, someone's just going to see our stuff and the more content
we produce
someone's just going to be like
yeah
yeah
okay well that doesn't happen
usually
so that's like when I was a kid
I thought I was going to
walk through a mall
and someone's going to be like
you baby
take a loan to LA
you're booked
and then the security
is like sir
we've asked you not to
yeah
that was never going to
happen to me
for multiple reasons
but then it does
that does happen
to some people I mean I'm hoping it'll happen to me for multiple reasons. But then it does, that does happen to some people.
I mean, I'm hoping it'll happen to us.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Dave and I have been hanging out at the mall a lot.
We've just been screaming into microphones at the mall.
Listen, it's going to happen for you guys, for sure.
If it's anyone, it's you guys.
Thank you.
But no, so yeah, I mean, we kind of thought that that's just how it worked.
And like, anyways, so over the last like five years, we've really been pushing and trying to get to know more people and trying to get people more people to know us.
Yeah.
So for this particular one, I had worked on a feature film with this production company.
So I kind of knew them, but like I didn't know that I didn't know you could really just like ask somebody if they'd be willing to listen to an idea.
Like it seems upsetting to ask willing to listen to an idea like i like it seems it seems
upsetting to ask somebody to listen to your idea that's why i don't go to therapy i can't just ask
someone to listen to me no but you could pay them though it still seems a little too asky yeah i
don't want to be too asky that's the thing i don't want to be too asky so um yeah sorry long story
short i knew of this this company and they're wonderful to work with, and they seem to really get it.
You know, people just, like, get the comedy and understand what you're trying to do.
So that was kind of a year went by.
And then you guys know Cam McCloud?
We do.
I know of him.
Okay.
Yeah, that guy.
Wow.
We don't have a long enough time to talk about him. him but he um him and his comedy partner um decided that brian um decided that they were
they put together um a series and they went to hadron films as the production company okay and
so i was a part of their writer's room um for their pilot and then sort of literally one day
as i was walking out i turned to one of them and said one of the producers and said hey like do
you guys ever want to like i mustered up the courage, mind you,
all day.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I was just asking,
what's she going to say?
No,
and I'll hate myself for a minute
and that's that.
And so I was like,
would you ever listen
to a pitch that Ryan and I have?
They're like,
oh yeah,
we've seen your stuff,
we'd love to,
just write it up
and let's pick a date.
I was like,
okay,
what?
People love having meetings.
Yeah,
they want to have a meeting.
Let's have a meeting.
Was it a lunch meeting
or just like a straight up in a boardroom meeting?
It was in a boardroom meeting.
Well, that's too bad.
Well, they kept it chill.
I think like we maybe even had a brew or two.
Sometimes they have brews, which is pretty cool.
But yeah, and then we just chatted about it.
And it was like went back and forth a little bit about what our ideas were and how they could help and what it would look like.
And then Bob's your uncle, like you said earlier.
Yeah, I was, I'm,
was voted most likely
to say that.
Cool.
Do you introduce me
as your comedy partner?
Yeah,
yeah.
Life partner.
Oh,
yeah.
Oh,
nice.
Platonic.
Platonic or,
it's none of my business.
It's none of my business.
It doesn't matter.
People get the idea.
It's none of my business.
They get the gist.
Yeah,
yeah.
I consider you more of a free agent thanks you're not really
anyone's partner you're not tied down to any i haven't signed any uh for a season or anything
yeah no you're you're you're a lot of people's partner i think oh wow good for you yeah well
i get around i sleep around yep um uh is it weird to like have that kind of thing built up in your mind?
Like this is never going to happen.
And then just simple ask like that.
Yes.
And then it all fell into place.
It was our entire lives felt like we were working for this for somebody to say, yes, we believe in what you're doing.
Yes, we and we're willing to bet on you.
They're betting on us is what it is. so it's so it's very like early days so basically and i learned this as we kind
of went through they were uh we were very fortunate that they were willing to sort of bet on us like
and give us some money for production so all of all of what they've given us has gone to the
you know producing it and getting it made and crew and making it look the best it can look right
and then once we edit together we're sort of in editing right now then we'll pitch it and getting it made and crew and making it look the best it can look right and then once we edit together we're sort of in editing right now then we'll pitch it and hopefully someone will say yes
i want to put this somewhere and that's a whole yeah i just have to ask and all you have to do
is ask take your video did you we want to put this somewhere yeah on a very high shelf do you um uh
excuse me you son of a very high shelf nice i'll remember that
i just thought of a place i didn't mean it to be the biggest burn i took it how i took it um
but uh it was uh okay that hurt i'm sorry uh did you hear any no's like or was this the first
person the first people you asked um the for this round we've definitely had a lot of no's? Like, or was this the first person, the first people you asked? Um, for this round,
we've definitely had
a lot of no's
along the way.
You know,
we've worked,
yeah,
definitely.
Not for this particular one.
This sort of,
this was sort of birthed
with Hadron Films.
Um,
the concept.
So that was like
your doula was.
Yeah.
Exactly.
Oh my gosh.
Yeah.
In my parlance.
Yeah.
Finally putting it
into terms we can understand.
I like that a lot.
Yeah.
Yes.
So I birthed, they doula'd me, or Ryan, doesn't matter.
Twins.
Yep, twins.
But one came from Ryan, one came from me.
That's how twins happen, right?
One comes from each parent?
Yeah.
Again, it's none of your business.
Uh-huh.
So we, yeah, we made this with them, but we've had millions of concepts along the way
of show ideas that sort of got a little bit
or there was a lot of straight up no's
or someone sort of took us so far
and then it dwindled out.
But this is the farthest we've ever got with,
and this is exactly what we want to do.
As we were sort of figuring out what it is
that what our dream really was
and what made us the happiest,
we finally came to, we want to make a sketch show
doing stuff that we've always done
and what we think is funny.
Because that's what you do.
Because that's what we do.
Because what else were you pitching?
Not a cooking show.
No, we were just,
yeah, actually,
no joke.
Did you really pitch a cooking show?
We worked with a company
out of Toronto
pitching them a bunch of different
like food network type shows.
Oh, yeah.
And again, got so far with like, and then it was kind of
it just didn't. And then it was kind of like
fizzle, like this isn't what we
do, but it's not our
dream. Being on the food network seems
like once you're in, man, oh man, you're
in for life. Oh, boy. Like they just keep coming
up with shows for you.
How? Well, I don't know how.
I mean, they're not good ideas for shows, but, you know, Buddy Valastro, he's set for life.
I mean, he's not even on the Food Network.
He's a TLC man.
Oh, he's on the Food Network now.
Cake Bosses?
Yeah, it's him versus another cake guy.
Yeah, Duff.
Yeah, they're making cakes.
I also watched the show last night.
Food Network's in free preview right now. So I've been watching a lot of food. Yeah, they're making cakes. I also watched a show last night. Food Night was in free preview right now.
So I've been watching a lot of food.
Yeah, yeah.
Like a drunken sailor.
There's a show that's just three cake makers in three different cities making cakes.
But there's no, that's the only.
It's not related?
No, they're not related to one another.
It's not a competition.
They just jump from Portland to New York to LA and just show these women making cakes.
And it's a bad show.
I watched about six hours of it.
I was going to say, but you watched it from the start.
Yeah, I started.
Did the cakes look yummy?
No, they look.
Artistic?
Hilarious.
Oh.
Like, yeah, hilarious and artistic, but they don't look like cakes.
They look like, you know, one was a stack of baby blocks or one looked like other food.
One of the episodes, they had to make a cake for the cast of Modern Family, but they all had to be anime style.
All the characters had to be anime style, which I don't know how that.
I mean, I've never really watched the the show so maybe it is an anime show
Modern Family?
Yeah, it's not right?
I think it's hentai
Oh is it hentai?
Wait, what?
We're losing Amy
Oh my god
Amy's leaving the room, come back Amy
So you made this food show tell us all about oh yeah so we
have you guys ever seen nailed it i think it's called oh where they like try and nail the people
are real chef yeah yeah but like what at first i was like i don't know because my friend was like
you got it my friend i have a friend who's like always like gets super obsessed with shows and
then i you have to watch it with him.
Like he's, you've got to watch it.
So we started watching it.
I was like, I don't know.
Like, this is pretty like put together.
I don't know if it has legs or whatever.
And then I watched like a thousand episodes.
Yeah.
And it was, I thought they did a pretty good job.
Like she's funny.
It feels like they just do whatever they want on set.
And all the cakes, like when they don't nail it it's really funny to me i also feel
like netflix does uh they make like five seasons of a show in a weekend yeah like oh yeah you hear
about a show and you're like yeah i'll get around to watching that and then season three of it is
already out and it hasn't been a year yet yeah somebody was telling me uh actually
this past week and somebody who was a guest judge on nailed it and that they shot the first two
seasons together so he didn't know what the show was like a and it's taken off since then and
apparently like kids love it oh i bet it's like kids. Yeah. So he all of a sudden, like, everybody that he knows that has a kid wants to, like, say hi to him on the phone and stuff.
That's so cute.
That's nice.
Is it, like, just like mom?
No, it's just, like, I think it's just kind of, like, a fun, silly cake show.
Yeah.
Like, it's just, like, a show you could put on for a kid yeah and
not worry about it like this is about cakes nothing weird is gonna happen nobody's gonna
swear at anybody and it's silly but it's still like it's funny like she's just kind of like
out there and funny and their guests are usually funny and then that producer guy she's or what
one of the producers or i can't first ad or someone comes out she gets them to do stuff
like bring the crown it's just kind of the way she says things or someone comes out and she gets them to do stuff like bring the crown
it's just kind of
the way she says things
like they just
did a good job
would this be a good idea
for a podcast
where people describe
shows I haven't seen
but I think I know
what they are
yeah yeah yeah
just to tell them
oh
like it's basically
what I do
with my mom
and would I like it
no you wouldn't like it
yeah
but like the thing the problem now with shows is it used to
be a show would be on and then everybody would watch it or not watch it but now if you watch a
show you're desperately kind of fumbling around looking for somebody else who has seen it so that
you can have or it takes off and you're like okay at least people are talking about it i know
like six people are
vouching for this yeah yeah yeah yeah so now now i have uh eight hours or nine hours of watching
homework just to get up to speed totally but like you have a show like that that you've seen
that nobody else has seen and you're kind of pitching oh my god no i watch awful television
what do you watch i can't tell you come on give you watch? I can't tell you. Come on. Give me a taste.
I can't tell you.
What was the one that...
I can't.
Christine Bordelon watches all those bad MTV shows.
Are you the one?
Are you the one?
Yeah.
And she can't find anyone to talk about them with?
There's one show that I've only seen ads for.
It's called...
What is it called?
Something, something, something clone.
And it's MTV stars go on dates with 10 identical looking people that are all dressed the same and all act the same.
And they have to figure out which one is the one that's been pre-matched for them.
Oh, my God.
You love it?
I haven't seen it.
I've just seen the ads for it, but I'm like, I think I could fall in love with this show.
Does it make you imagine how they would clone you?
Like how, what sort of parts of your personality and et cetera, looks your clothes they would choose yeah yeah
and this probably wouldn't be good but i hope i would get matched with the situation
such an old reference well that's one of the guys is paulie d yeah he's like one of the guys oh not
paulie d um the situation or paulie d. It is Pauly D. Pauly D.
Oh my gosh.
Yeah.
He did well for himself, Pauly D.
He did?
Look at him go.
Yeah.
I think he like did really, and he's like a prominent DJ in Las Vegas, I think.
Really?
Yeah.
Listen, he's a prominent DJ.
Screw you, Dave.
Because they did a reunion uh a reunion of jersey shore yeah and i i forget one of them was
like everyone had kind of let themselves go and had had a few uh divorces yeah and one of them
but one of them was like still got it he was polly d was polly d was like still looked exactly the
same he's a prominent dj Las Vegas. Yes, are you?
Also, I think five minutes ago, I just called you Dan.
So that's okay.
So that's going to be on here.
I don't regret it.
That's fine.
You're making fun of me.
I don't give a shit.
Without telling me what you watch on TV, is it reality based?
Yes.
Okay.
Is it?
You'll never know.
But is it like obscure?
Yes.
Okay. Is it on a cable channel that you don't even get? No. Is it on You'll never know. But is it like obscure? Yes. Or is, okay.
Is it on a cable channel that you don't even get?
No.
Is it on a Netflix?
I don't have cable, sweetie.
I know, but is it like.
So it's on a streaming.
Yes.
Okay.
You won't know.
Yeah.
You can't know.
It's Terrace House.
Damn it.
Oh my God.
It is Terrace House.
Is it really?
Yes. Is it really? I loved Terrace House. What is Terrace House. Is it really? Yes.
Is it really?
I love Terrace House.
What is Terrace House?
I also have the same question.
What is Terrace House?
You never watched it?
I've just seen it come up.
Okay, so I actually get all of my binge-worthy shows from Facebook.
I hate Facebook, but it's one of the things that I like.
I just wait for people to put on their status.
Oh my God, have you seen this show?
And I'm like, okay, great, put it on. And someone was posting about one of the things that I like. I just wait for people to put on their status. Oh my God, have you seen this show? And then I'm like, okay, great.
Put it on.
And someone was posting about the Tara show, I think.
And then I, it was something like that.
And then I kept seeing it.
It kept popping into my trending.
And I was like, oh, I'm curious.
And I clicked it.
It's a Japanese like real world scenario,
but they all have a, I'm just trying to make sure that i say this
correctly so they they all have a a goal so everyone that comes in the house you they're
usually between the ages of like 18 and 30 and they all have a goal career-wise like what they
want to accomplish because it's all about that right right? Salary man. Yeah. So, like, one of them has a goal.
Salary man or salary man?
Yeah, what's a salary man?
It's a salary man.
Okay.
That wasn't one of them.
A guy who makes salary.
Okay, no.
A salary man.
A salary man.
I think that just means, like, a generic Japanese, like.
I don't know.
Worker who works, you know, falls asleep on the train after a 20 hour day
yes
yes
right
but they
also
am I cancelled
for saying that
yeah
I'm not going to say anything
about that
because I'm not sure
if I'm not sure
I'm not sure about a lot of things
these days
so I just don't say anything
okay
that's smart
unless I need to speak up
because guess what I will
if I do
time's up
so somebody tell me
if I needed to say something.
Because I will come back to this place.
Anyhow.
So they have a goal.
And they have to also see if they fall in love with anybody.
Like if they match in the house.
Which is like the best part.
Oh boy.
That's so much work.
So they go on dates.
But like some of them don't like each other.
But someone gets.
And it's very.
It's a very interesting.
Like it's not like the real world.
None of it is scripted.
You know like most of the reality shows, like they're scripted.
They tell them what to say.
They create fights.
Yeah.
It's boring.
Like you watch hours upon hours of sometimes they're just sitting there and not really
doing anything, but you're like, I got so invested in them.
I love it.
I love their culture.
I loved how different it was.
It was like, it was very interesting to me.
Did we have a guest talk about this show a few months ago and I just
forgot about it? No. Okay. No, but
it's amazing that you were able to
pick up that it was Terrorist House. Yeah, how do you know that?
And also, if we
don't enunciate, it sounds
like we're saying Terrorist House.
No, that's not it. That would be a good show.
That would be a great show. They all have a goal.
They want to fall in love.
They all want to fall in love.
There's a
what is the one
that I've
that I've watched
it's really
scripted and dumb
but the
what I like about it
is that nobody on the show
is good looking
like they're all in good shape
right
but they're not
they're like
it's like the producers
went out of their way
to find the weirdest looking
six people
and put them in a house
that's great
called the Floribama Shore I i watched yeah but aren't they weird isn't there a bunch of weird
the floribama shore this is this is where we can you know what i mean at first i was like nothing
in common nothing in common but now do florida and alab Alabama even touch?
Listen again, this is where you don't say anything.
If you don't know, you just don't say it. Yeah, that's true.
I don't want to get canceled for saying that they do.
That is a rough show.
It is rough.
And it's a rough group of people that they've assembled to.
I don't want to get canceled for saying those two states touch.
But these are the six weirdest looking people I've ever seen.
They really are.
Human beings.
They are, am I wrong?
Yeah, it's a trip to watch that show.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Like, it's like they were like, we need another Jersey Shore.
Yeah.
But it's like they couldn't, because I feel like those people all knew each other on the Jersey Shore.
Like they were just a group of friends.
Like they didn't assemble them together.
I wonder.
I think they did.
I think they maybe did.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
It just came together so flawlessly.
They have great chemistry.
Yeah.
I never watched a second of it.
No.
Well, no, it's not true.
I think I maybe saw highlights.
Yeah, I saw some highlights.
On SportsCenter. That's where maybe saw highlights. Yeah, I saw some highlights. On SportsCenter.
That's where it would be.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The thing that I've been watching, or I started watching yesterday that everyone's been talking about is this documentary about Theranos.
Oh.
Oh.
It's called The Inventor.
It's about a young woman who, in Silicon Valley...
The blood.
Yeah.
Had started this company that was,
uh,
like was going to revolutionize blood.
Yeah.
Like some kind of blood testing technology.
Yeah.
But she like,
that would need a very tiny amount of blood where you could like,
instead of having your blood drawn to do a bunch of tests,
you could give a tiny bit of blood once a week and just have, like, monitoring your health.
Wow.
But it was all phony baloney.
It was all fake it till you make it.
Mm-hmm.
Oh.
Mm-hmm.
Kind of like the Fyre Festival.
Baloney till you're something.
Yeah.
Baloney till you win a Tony.
Do they get those out for fraud?
Until you win a Tony.
And she, the woman in that, she dresses like Steve Jobs.
She wears black turtlenecks.
She doesn't blink all the time.
Oh, yeah.
Is it good?
So is it good then?
Do you recommend watching it?
Yeah. Okay. I mean, I'm an hour in. time. Oh yeah. Yeah. Is it good? So is it good then? Do you recommend watching it? Yeah.
Okay.
It's,
I mean,
I'm an hour in.
It's two hours.
Yeah.
When am I going to find the time?
It was too much.
It was too much for you.
Did you guys see Russian Doll?
No.
No.
Is it good?
I recommend.
Okay.
I highly recommend.
Have you watched it?
Did she like it?
Yes.
Yeah.
I guess so.
I don't know.
She,
her bar is pretty low.
Oh,
excuse me. Well, she'll watch. I will be telling I don't know. Her bar is pretty low. Oh, excuse me.
I will be telling her you said that.
Well, she'll just keep watching something even with...
Like past the point of hating it?
Like Floribama Shores?
I think, yeah.
I hated it from the first second.
And I never regretted a second of it.
We hate watching.
We have shows we watch together.
And we have fewer and fewer of them. And we have shows we watch together and we have fewer and fewer of them and we have
shows we started watching together that i'm like i'm done after this season and she keeps going
yeah fair well yeah i think russian doll is good like my partner jenny started watching and i was
like when i realized you guys know what the concept is no so i won't ruin it just in case
but like basically the one prominent thing is that this person the main actress day starts exactly the same in the exact same place she always she dies and then she that's
not giving anything away trust me but she dies and she restarts her day in the exact same spot
which is at a party in a bathroom in her friend's bathroom she's at her birthday party and so the
every episode is the exact same start and the first episode i was like sorry the second episode
i was like so this just starts every single episode.
This does not have legs.
And then all of a sudden, I was watching the whole thing, and I was like, yeah.
And the same song happens.
Like, the same dialogue happens in the beginning.
It's insane.
Is it, I got you, babe?
Yes.
Yes.
Are you talking about Groundhog Day?
Oh, crap.
They must save a lot of money by having the same scene at the very beginning every time.
That was part of the pitch.
We only have to shoot half an episode
because we'll just replay that first half.
If you had to wake up
in the same moment every day.
Oh, God.
I would just wake up just in bed.
That's how I would just start in bed.
That just came to my head.
The same day?
Yeah, but I wouldn't want to start in the bathroom at a party or something.
I'd want to be like...
Laying down.
Yeah, waking up.
Oh, man.
Can you imagine how jarring it would be to wake up standing up?
Or like driving up.
That's messed up. Yeah. I up that's messed up
yeah
I'm a pretty messed up guy
I know that
I'm sure that's what people
when they're first finding out
they have narcolepsy
find out
they wake up all
well I guess they're sleeping
but who knows what they're doing
what they were doing
but they're probably lying down
yeah
they could be sitting
waking up in a public place
which I've done
you're cancelled
for not knowing everything
about narcolepsy oh right I'm cancelled yeah just like my whole life is cancelled what's cancelled exactly Making up in a public place. By the way, you're canceled for not knowing everything about Michael Jackson.
I'm canceled?
Yeah.
Just like my whole life is canceled?
Yeah.
What's canceled exactly?
Cancelled is.
Any opportunities.
Oh, what does canceled mean?
So like, it's just like, we're done.
We as a society, we're done.
We're done with you.
Yeah.
Got it.
Just like everybody just canceled Michael Jackson.
Exactly.
Yeah.
Got it.
R. Kelly's canceled.
Yes.
Amy Good Murphy canceled.
That's, no.
I'm not. Don't put me in the same. What? it. R. Kelly's canceled. Yes. Amy Good Murphy canceled. That's, no. I'm not, don't put me in the same.
No.
You called me Dan.
You're canceled.
You're canceled.
Fair, fair, fair.
One for one.
We're good now.
Yeah.
Who was somebody making a joke about that was canceled?
It was Paul F. Dawkins made a joke about
somebody posted a picture and said do you think that
Hitler was addicted
to amphetamines
and he's like rocking back and forth
Hitler's cancelled
for drug use
fair very good
but like yeah is there anything
that you're currently watching that you
just hate watching?
I'm an absolute hate watcher.
Like I'm addicted.
Yes.
I get like bachelor or bachelorette is hate watch.
I, I, I love to hate it.
I'm obsessive.
I get obsessed with how cringy the moments are.
Yeah.
And again, my, my girlfriend Jenny's always like, stop watching.
Like, why are you doing that to yourself?
And I'm like, because I need to.
I need to see them say these awful.
Do you say things to the TV?
Do you get some venom out?
Yeah.
Do you watch every season of it?
Right now, currently, yes, I do.
This one, I haven't, I've only seen the first episode because I got too busy.
I heard it was bad.
I heard it was, someone said that yesterday to me
because I was like, oh, I can't wait to binge.
Now I get to binge.
And someone was like, it was boring. Yeah. Too bad. I heard it was, someone said that yesterday to me. Because I was like, oh, I can't wait to binge. Now I get to binge. And someone was like, it was boring.
Yeah.
Too bad.
Yeah.
Somebody who also hate watched it was like, save it.
They didn't show up with very good career goals.
No.
They knew they wanted to fall in love.
Yeah.
That's, yeah.
When they make up their, somewhere along the way, Bachelor people started saying, or Bachelor
Bachelorette people started saying, making up their stupid occupations.
Like, just tell us what they really do.
Like, none of that is fun.
Remember, maybe you're like, look at your face.
I'm loving it.
You're just talking from ear to ear.
I love when they say aspiring swimmer.
Or like, whatever the hell it is.
So stupid. Yeah. I remember in season one of Survivor, there was a guy who just said, Ivy League graduate.
Yeah, what?
And it was like, well, that means you don't have a job?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You went to school?
This person went to school.
Went to school, but a good school.
There's a show that I watched every single episode of called Baggage.
Yes. Which was a show from the early every single episode of called Baggage. Yes.
Which was a show from the early 2000s.
I remember this.
Yeah.
Hosted by, what's his name?
The guy, he had a talk show where people threw chairs at each other all the time.
Jerry Springer.
Jerry Springer.
Jerry Springer.
Everybody on the show, it was made in la everybody on the show was an actor looking for credit and so they all had to make up names or you know occupations or so it just
had to be something that wasn't aspiring aspiring actor and so it was all that kind of stuff avid
avid sports fan.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I can't even remember what some of the words.
I just remember being like, when did you decide that someone was like, and I also love the idea of thinking of who came up with that.
Yeah.
And a room full of people going, yeah, let's do that.
Because people, audience, like people, viewers are calling for that.
Yeah.
They're tired of seeing what they really do for a job.
Yeah.
They want to, yeah, we want, I want to dive into this, this world and it to be all fabricated.
Yeah.
Yeah.
What?
I don't need a view into their real life.
That's why I get bummed out on cooking shows where they're like, tell me about your, tell me about your restaurant.
I'm like, I don't, I don't want to know that these people exist outside of this show.
I want them to be funny characters for my
amusement yeah well everything's farm to table except for it goes in our truck in between and
and then some of it ends up actually gets detoured and i have to buy a bunch of stuff
at the store yeah and some of it is farm to table to dump because people don't finish. Yeah.
Yeah.
But I like,
I like my reality stars.
Yeah, me too.
To be.
Oh,
okay.
Sorry.
No,
not me.
You like,
you want,
you want,
I don't know what they do.
You want to know the real deal.
I want to know that I'm so embarrassed by this person and they're real.
They're that's so mean,
isn't it?
I'm so embarrassed by this person, they're real there. That's so mean, isn't it? I'm so embarrassed by this person,
but they're actually like that.
Yeah.
Everyone got silent.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
Does that make sense or not really?
Yeah,
it makes sense.
I don't know.
But I,
I can see it as being like the type of watching,
like where you can get your,
you can get your venom out.
Yeah.
You know,
I love to hate watch things.
Yeah.
It's sick. What's your favorite love to hate watch things. Yeah. It's sick.
What's your favorite all-time hate watch?
Oh, man.
There's so many.
Wow.
Favorite all-time hate watch.
My favorite was Seventh Heaven.
Not a reality show, but used to watch it every week.
Yeah.
Loved making fun of it.
It was always so overdramatic.
It was a lot of fun
I used to have so much
more time to
like
I don't even have time
to watch things
I like anymore
oh I've pretty much
shelved ever
watching anything I like
that's out
these are like
mindless
yeah
I used to watch
um
Dawson's Creek
oh yeah
and uh
Blind Date
I was just gonna say do, do you remember Blind Date?
Blind Date.
Yeah.
Blind Date was the best.
I think I loved Blind Date though.
I don't know if I hate watching it at that time.
Those were all people who were also actors.
Yes.
Why?
Just looking for a credit.
But that in that.
And a free meal.
That show.
And maybe some hot tub sex.
One free meal.
I liked where they showed up at their apartment.
I liked seeing the person's apartment or Or at least just the front entrance.
Yeah. Oh, that show was good. Oh my god.
I think we talk about it maybe every six months on the show.
Why don't they reboot it again? Maybe they can't. Maybe there's too many.
Roger Lodge's got... Roger Lodge. It was so ahead of its time.
Yeah, totally. It was. and then there was a bunch of shows
that were exactly like it and then they i guess they unilaterally decided we don't want to watch
that anymore but they're wrong we want long form we want to do a herald of people dating we don't
want short dates where people go to like a bar at three in the afternoon when no
one's there and then go to the sumo suit fighting place and then end up in a hot tub yeah well
someone was there a lot of drunk driving on that show i feel like yeah there's a lot of in-car
conversations where they just were at a bar.
Yeah.
And you're right.
The bar was always empty except for them.
So there was no atmosphere.
It was daylight.
And then, yes, somehow they would always find their way to a hot tub.
Well, there always has to be a hot tub.
Yeah.
Or else I'm not watching.
Play it that much.
Okay?
They must tell people on reality shows, get in the hot tub. Get in that hot tub. Yeah. tub yeah we've flown in a hot tub wherever they can get a hot tub it's in
it's a portable hot tub it's the same one did you ever watch the show actually no i want to talk
about this one more have you guys seen the show i forget what it's called but it's a british show
and and maybe we talked about this last time I was here.
So forgive me if we did, where there's a dater, a single dater, either male or female.
And, or however they identify.
And there's daters that they look at and they reveal from the feet.
They're naked.
I've seen clips.
I've never seen the show.
First, they reveal their genitalia.
First.
First.
Then the single dater eliminates based on their genitalia first first then the single dater eliminates based on their genitalia
then it goes up to their neck and shows their chest well oh boy then they eliminate based on
that and then they get to see who they picked's face at least they don't go genitalia or like
faith and then genitalia okay Okay, the faiths are fine.
Okay, you're out.
So at least it's anonymous.
No, but like how do you, it's such an awful premise.
Does the audience get to see the genitalia?
Oh, yes.
What channel?
Someone showed me a year ago online, he found, he had it.
On British Penis TV. Yeah, it. On British Penis TV.
Yeah, it's on British Penis TV.
They have that watershed hour where it's like.
Anything goes?
Anything goes.
On the BBC and like Channel 4 and stuff.
Because I remember watching a show.
It was like a doctor advice show.
And people would come on.
And it was fucking gross.
And they showed everything. it was but it was
like at you know 9 30 like people call in no no people would go on the show and be like this is
what's wrong with me and then the doctor would like look at it and tell them what it was but
like it wasn't what was it i mean it was a it was a lot of stuff south of the 49th parallel.
South of the channel.
It was, yeah, it was gross.
But that's, at a certain time, they're allowed to do whatever.
Yeah.
So that's where the genital dating show. But like, imagine.
I just don't know even where to begin with that.
Yeah.
Oh, and the dater gets naked at the very end, just so you know.
And I hope I'm saying this correctly because I only saw it once.
But the dater at the end gets naked too with their date that they picked.
And at the end, they stand beside the host naked and hold hands and walk away.
Into the garden of Eden.
Why do they do that?
Yeah.
Are they going on their date naked?
Like, you don't show their date.
They just picked each other.
Naked, they walk away.
Why?
I don't know.
I love it.
I love it.
You love it,
Graham.
I can't imagine
rejecting anyone
based on female genitalia.
I just,
no.
I love it all.
It's different.
Oh my gosh.
But you're right.
If they showed the face first
and then the genitals,
then like,
but like then, okay, your ex named based on your face. That one? No. Okay, But you're right. If they showed the face first and then the genitals, then like.
It's like, okay, your ex named based on your face.
That one?
No.
Okay, thanks.
I'm naked under here.
Like, it's awful.
So vulnerable.
Yeah, at least your genitals are anonymous.
Well, except not mine.
I have a tattoo of my name and my driver's license.
Perfect.
Well, you'd be great on it.
Yeah. perfect well you'd be great on it yeah what are the people who are the people who are the dates thinking what's the best case scenario do they win money or something or a good question don't
know i think they just win a date i don't know i don't know but like why who said yes to this
ever like oh the genitals very good for the face not like you're like would you'd come in last place
if it was his face but yeah the genitals very good and the host comes over and kind of goes
oh how about those genitals like that's for the first yeah oh great they were great genitals uh
he had great balls like what his balls are you know know, they seem like they're aspiring to something.
They're hard working.
Yeah.
I thought, hmm.
That's the balls of somebody who's really putting in the hours.
Yeah.
Yep.
Oh, boy.
Dave, what's going on with you, man?
Well, let's see.
A couple things.
So, where I work, they have a lot of auditions.
You have to go in naked.
You have to have
your genitals.
Yeah, what's the audition process
like for that show?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Submit online.
What if they all look the same?
What if they're all the same?
It's like,
maybe they don't look
the same.
That's what I mean.
It's like,
everybody's different.
Oh, I guess the casting director
has to be like, okay, yeah, we gotta we're gonna put you in episode four
they do the reverse voice they see the genitals if they don't like them they turn the chair around
that's what it is um and if also if the genitals are singing really well
i can't live if living is without you.
I'm a penis.
Hey, guys.
Hi.
In my building,
there's a couple of casting offices.
You've been there.
I go there.
Don't go there.
Wow.
And then I was walking into my office
a couple of days ago and there were security guards outside.
Or so you think.
And I was like, what, what, what's going on?
Is there like some really big audition happening?
Oh.
Where there's like, they just need to know who's coming in and out of the building.
And then I got into my office and I asked if anyone knew what was going on
with that.
And they said,
Oh no,
it's,
uh,
this other office in the building fired someone.
And that person still has their access to the building.
So like all week,
these security guards have just been sitting outside his office,
hoping the guy doesn't come back.
Are you serious?
They hired security guards?
Yeah.
Wow. I literally thought that it was going to Are you serious? They hired security guards? Yeah. Wow.
I literally thought that it was going to be that they were auditioning security guards.
That's why there were so many in the building.
That would be a good answer.
That's crazy.
That's scary.
Yeah.
I mean, good forethought on the hiring security guards.
Wow, I've never been fired so bad.
Yeah.
I mean, I guess I've really never been.
Fired so bad.
I've been let go i've had contracts
and yeah me as well but uh security guards that yeah that anyone thought i was a threat of showing
back up i don't know if it's for violence or yeah it must have been a big yeah like big meaning like
who knows what their position was and yeah how it it all went down. I'm so curious,
like that's a big deal.
Someone had to think we need,
someone had to green light,
yes,
we're getting security guards in.
B,
they had to phone
and say we need two
or however many there were
and C,
they had to pay for it.
Yeah,
and I think they might even
be there 24 hours
because this person
can come back.
Because they have a key.
But obviously that person
was let go
with the thought in mind
that this person's
not a safe
person to have around.
Because I feel like
you'd have to
say something
pretty specific
on your way out.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
To kind of
I'm coming back.
That was all it took.
Well, maybe.
I'm coming back to steal
that silver briefcase
with money in it. Yeah, deal or no deal. It was a deal. Yes, it took. Well, maybe. I'm coming back to steal that silver briefcase with money in it.
Yeah, deal or no deal.
It was a deal.
Yes, it was.
Howie Mandel was fired.
Yep, yep, yep, yep, yep.
He'll be back.
So are they still there?
Still security guards?
Today they were, yeah.
Wow.
Today's Wednesday and they've been there since Monday, so.
Wow.
Wow.
Yeah, I've never been in a position where,
and it's like they
can't,
can they change the
lock for the whole
building?
Is that too much of
an inconvenience for
everyone else or
can they cancel his
car?
He's canceled.
He is.
Oh,
he's canceled.
There's no cards.
It's keys.
Oh,
of course.
I'm sorry.
Oh yeah.
I mean,
if they were cards,
then you just change
it.
Yeah.
Just get a hacker in. Yeah. Oh geez. Yeah. Cause what are they, what are they going to do? Yeah. Oh, yeah. I mean, if they were cards, then you'd just change them. Yeah, you'd just get a hacker in.
Yeah.
Oh, geez.
Yeah, because what are they going to do?
Yeah, they might have, they might, maybe they'll have to pay the expense of changing everybody's key.
I don't know.
I mean, it couldn't be more expensive than having 24-hour security.
Yeah, wow.
The most bored-looking security guards, too.
Yeah, they all signed up thinking action.
When you join the security force.
You're thinking big action.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Protecting diamonds.
That's what they do.
Going up to a guy who's an alien and saying, hey, Halloween was last month, and then it zaps you.
Someone's got to do it. What else happens to security guards? Getting clubbed over the head. Two of them left in a pile outside the door
while you sneak in. Getting gassed. Gas coming through the vent.
Thump. I heard that.
So yeah, that's what's going on. The other thing is the other day
I was driving down the street.
I'd taken my kids to the pool and we were like we were stopped at a red light.
And then I noticed that a car came right up next to us, also stopped at the red light, and it was just revving its engine.
Yeah, here we go.
Like, oh, this guy is going to be hot off the line.
This guy thinks we're racing.
And so my original reaction was, ignore him and pretend.
Like, don't make eye contact.
Don't do that thing where you look over and he looks back at you like, we're doing it.
Don't hold up your pink slip and wave it at him.
What year is it?
Hold on.
But, like, sometimes you'll be in traffic and someone will be like, I'm going to be hot off the line.
And you're like, well, I mean, I'm going to be reasonable off the line.
Sure.
But if I'm a little bit faster than this guy, that would be cool.
That would be cool.
That would be cool.
Like I'm also going to be watching the light to see if I can react faster to the light.
Sure.
Yeah.
But yeah, so the light changed
and
then I drove reasonably
and I was way ahead of this guy.
Oh, you beat him off the line. I beat him way off the line.
Maybe he was vroomed too much
and his engine got overheated.
And then
he eventually caught up to me and there was
literally a red light at the next block.
And so he was stopped next to me doing it again.
And it was just, I saw what the car was eventually.
And it was just an old Infiniti that had a loud engine.
But everywhere he goes all day long, people must think.
He's challenging them.
He's challenging them to a race.
Yeah.
Well, that reminds me of people who install.
One of my many things that I hate.
One of the things is I hate, and to each their own, I guess, but just to be honest, when people install aftermarket mufflers to be loud.
No.
Yeah.
I saw literally on the way here, a new driver with the loudest muffler.
Yeah.
And it just, I don't.
Who is the target market, I don't, who,
who is the target market?
I don't know.
For who you're trying to impress.
Oh.
Yeah,
who looks and goes,
yeah.
Or hears it and goes,
mm-hmm.
Yeah,
sick.
Let's see,
who's,
I mean,
it impresses parents
who have a baby napping.
Yeah,
mm-hmm.
It impresses people
trying to enjoy a patio human beings in general yeah
cats today was we're recording this on the first day of spring and the last couple days the
the temperature in the city has skyrocketed unreal uh it's it's like we've skipped spring
and gone straight to summer although i have not not seen any loud, like I feel like summertime is motorcycle time.
Yeah.
I haven't seen it or heard any of that yet.
Soon.
They're coming.
My neighborhood is filled with people with the revving engines and the loud off the lights guys.
I don't know if it's because it's a strip of road that isn't very busy at night.
You go to Ridell High, right?
I go to Ridell High.
I don't know what that is.
It's from Greece.
Greece.
I go to Ridell High.
But yeah, every night.
Every night with the gunning the engine.
I feel like a lot of people in this town have a summer vehicle yeah i think so too like i have a classic car that's really loud i have a motorcycle
yeah i have a dirt bike yeah here it see it here it is city dirt bike man i know that it's not
legal but it should be double legal like is it double illegal double illegal yeah cause uh oh man
that's the
that's the worst
that's
I don't wanna
ever hear that noise
that's why I don't go
to motocross events
well
also cause you
showed your penis
what?
Graham went to a
motocross event
and got cancelled
he can't do that
I thought it was
a dating show
you got cancelled there?
I got cancelled
at motocross
oh Graham
I'm sorry.
I'm not okay with that.
This is one of these moments where I speak up.
Don't do that.
Don't do that at Motocross.
Don't do that, Graham, at Motocross.
Check this out.
Here's my cue.
That was not a cue.
It's now Pavlovian, so in the summertime. Oh my God. It's now Pavlovian.
Oh.
Yeah.
So in the summertime.
Oh boy.
I know.
That's why I've been canceled.
He's got to wear double pants.
The great thing is once you're canceled, you don't have to worry about being canceled.
So you can just live your best life.
Do what you want.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Wow.
Did anybody consider that end of canceling?
Thank you.
I want to be canceled because i want to do what i want
you know what it's coming yeah there's people who are gonna be like well i've i've i'm off the hook
basically because i'm so on the hook there's gonna be a think piece about being canceled
was the best thing that ever happened to me i'm like i'm so on the hook that the hook doesn't
even like hook isn't even there. I am the hook.
There should be a reality show called Cancelled.
Yeah.
Isn't there one?
I love that.
We'd watch that.
Yeah, of course.
You'd be on it.
Yeah, I would be on it.
I think I was cancelled earlier, too.
I guess I'd be on it.
Yeah, I think we both, I mean, I.
You're cancelled for sure.
What?
You said some things.
I'm cool.
I'm cool.
I can get away with stuff.
Okay, cool.
Because of how I wear my t-shirt.
Yeah.
Cigarette pack rolled in the one eye.
So, yeah, that's me.
Loud vehicles and security guards.
Yeah.
Just like begging to have their heads clung together.
I'll cut this out if anything bad happens yes perfect um what's up with you i uh this weekend
i went up to the yukon all right yeah i went up to whitehorse for a comedy festival cool
have you ever been no it's uh it's cool up there hey it's like the the population i said this uh to
somebody from out there is like the population here is all people who are running away from
other places and they're like they're like yes that is correct and bears and bears they come
here to run away from bears um but yeah like a lot of uh not a lot of people are born and raised there.
Like a lot of the people that are born there grow up, leave.
So a lot of the people there are transplants from other cities.
So it's got this very mysterious vibe to it because everybody's from somewhere else and you don't know what they, what was their past life like.
It's like where we've, if we had a witness protection program,
it would be full of them.
Yeah.
Yeah.
This would be the town for it.
And,
and also like,
because they have stretches of time where it's dark all day.
Yeah.
And then they have stretches of time where it's light all day.
So crazy.
Yeah.
You have to be kind of like a different type of person.
Totally.
Yeah.
Of course. I mean, you don't have to be a different type of person that lives there. Totally. Yeah. Of course.
I mean, you don't have to be a different type of person to live there, but it helps.
Okay, okay.
Got it.
Sorry.
Yes. Now I understand.
But my favorite kind of thing is that everything about the Yukon is very on brand.
Like there's...
So gold panning.
Yeah.
Like all the downtown looks like Old West.
Like a recreation of the Old West.
Yeah, yeah.
And it's, you know, there's like, yeah, every bar you go into has a Yukon theme.
There's nobody who's like trying to go way out of the direction of like, they're like, I'll also go with the Klondike theme.
It's trying to be trendy.
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah no trendy
cocktail bar it's no there was like a i went to a pizza restaurant that was like nice but it still
felt like the yukon right you know what i mean that's cool bear bear meat on the pizza but we
ate bear meat yeah and drank elk pee and i had so many conversations with people there that just kept talking about
field dressing a bison and stuff like that like everything just is very it's very the yukon
i loved it yeah it's very uh there was at one point uh i was uh doing a show and outside
there was a dog sled in the parking lot valet oh that's awesome yeah that
would be a fun uh if you ever made a movie about it the yukon dog sled i guess it could be in any
dog sled movie many dogs movies a blow yeah uh i think maybe one about the iditarod yeah where
someone goes uh like parks their dog sled and then has a little key fob.
And they push the button and the dogs go, woof.
Woof, woof.
So stupid.
That is so stupid.
Woof, woof.
No.
But you would watch that movie.
Yes, I would.
Yeah.
Fair.
Yeah, so it was a lot of fun.
How long were you there?
I was there for three days.
Three days, yeah.
So, but how many, I guess this time of year it's neither all dark or all light.
No, it's light like until like nine o'clock.
And then.
Dark until eight.
So you have one hour of daylight, but it's at night.
until eight so you have one hour of daylight but it's at night and uh so yeah walking kind of walking out after like uh had a couple drinks at like six and then walked out and it's still
super bright and your brain isn't yeah isn't doing the sun math correctly right you feel like a dirt
bag stumbling out yeah morning yeah you're like uh like, well, I didn't think I was day drinking, but apparently up here.
Did you?
So the, I think Washington state voted to not do daylight savings anymore.
Oh, yeah.
I didn't know that.
Is that going to be weird?
Are we going to like, if we cross the border to go to Seattle, it'll be a different hour?
Yeah, for half of the year.
Huh?
Yeah.
But that's like, Saskatchewan doesn't do it.
I know.
They abstain from daylight savings.
So they're like, this time zone half of the year and this time zone the other half of the year.
Which is weird.
But like, why do we do it still?
I don't know.
We do it because everyone else does it.
But if people stop doing it, I think we'll stop.
Someone was irate yesterday.
I was talking to an older gentleman who just could not handle.
It was like the bane of his existence that we still do it.
Why do we do it for?
Who's it for?
I was like, I don't know.
Stop yelling at me.
I just asked you the time.
I don't know.
I just gave my seat up for you on the bus.
It is so nice, though, when it's suddenly the days are longer.
Yeah, it's a nice surprise.
That's what it's for.
It's just to keep it surprising.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We'll treat.
Yeah.
I don't know.
I don't know.
There's a lot of things that we do.
I'm like, why do we do this? I got a question. I don't know. There's a lot of things that we do. I'm like, why do we, why do we do this?
I got a question.
Not about this.
Is that okay?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Um, back to your comedy festival.
Yeah.
Did you get a great crowd out?
Like, is it a busy?
Yeah.
That was a good question.
That is a great question.
Uh, the, they did kind of a headline show on the Saturday and that was sold out and
that was in their arts center.
Okay.
And then the next night, we drove a couple hours to a very, very small town called Haynes Junction.
Cool.
How many comedians?
There was three of us.
And we did their hall.
And we found out only when we went there
that it was a dry venue.
Nothing beats doing a show
on St. Patrick's Day in a dry venue.
Nice.
And Haynes Junction,
it was like a town
if you blinked, you'd miss it.
Wow.
There was a museum across the road
from where we were playing that was called
the Museum of Nostalgia.
What was in it?
But from what I can tell, like, the Yukon as a whole is a museum of nostalgia.
Yeah.
So was it more Old West stuff?
It was closed.
It was dying to go in, but it was closed.
It's like 90s nostalgia, 90210.
It's posters are up. Full house house they were actually closed because luke
perry died yeah um yeah it was like uh uh everything's closed on a sunday there too
that was the other thing except for bars i oh boy i was out at like i've why was i out in the
morning i just had to get something at home depot I was like, oh, they didn't have everything I needed.
And it was like nine in the morning on a Sunday here.
And I looked on Yelp to find other places and nothing opens until noon, basically, on Sundays.
Like other than restaurants.
Yeah.
It feels very small town.
Yeah, that's true, actually.
That happened to me recently. I wanted to get someone a birthday present on their birthday day, as typical I do.
Like, yeah, anyways, no planning ahead.
That way it's fresh.
That way it's fresh, right?
Thank you so much.
I got you a birthday melon.
I wanted it to be fresh.
I only got this t-shirt an hour ago.
But I went to a store on main street and same thing i was
like they're like 11 i thought okay 11 is like you know probably open at 10 but i'll go for 11
no not till 12 o'clock weird when abby lived i never yeah when abby lived in switzerland and i
visited it's like nationwide nothing open on sundays wow like the trains run and that's about it. You just, yeah. Now it's more, a few things are open, but.
Yeah.
Like there was a couple things open.
There was like a breakfast place open and a Starbucks.
Imagine having a breakfast place and be like, we're not opening on Sundays.
Closed on Sundays.
Not a big breakfast day.
No.
Nobody's going to come.
Wow.
But yeah, it was, it was good.
You should do a show up there.
I would love to.
I'd love to just visit there too.
I don't know much about it.
Just walk through the mall.
Yeah.
I hope you get discovered there.
That's how it works.
Of course I will.
Yeah.
If I want anything in life, I just go to Capilano Mall and I walk around.
Or Kingsgate.
And I walk around and people just
flock to me
do you wear
a particular outfit
or is it just
it doesn't matter
it doesn't matter
it's just me
it's my aura
you wouldn't get it
you just have a glow
yes
I got it
okay
none of your business
nothing is any of your business
you're on our podcast
while it's none of your business
you have many questions
yeah
did you
how many times
have you been
to the Yukon now
oh
my fourth time
we were there
at the same time
one time

yeah we went to a store and they had these indestructible combs and we totally like you me
and charlie all were trying to destroy these and we were in the store we were trying to do it and
we felt so bad i think we're like well we better buy these you'll never guess abby these combs
they're they don't break. I got to get one.
Get one for your dad, too.
Come on.
Oh, my God.
That was your selling.
That's the selling feature.
Also, I lost mine.
Oh. But I have, I own two combs.
They are.
You use them?
Yeah.
Are you sure?
I mean, I guess I walked into that.
But they're not breakable.
They're maybe breakable, but I don't have a rough and tumble comb lifestyle.
I broke a comb recently.
Okay, I was going to say, I've never broken a comb before.
Yeah, I snapped a comb right in half.
Whoa.
Yeah.
Out of rage?
Yeah, out of rage.
Oh, my God.
What happened?
Tell us.
I was combing my hair and it just snapped.
What was the rage? I was using the rage. Oh my God. What happened? Tell us. I was combing my hair and it just snapped. What was the rage?
I was using the comb for its intended purpose.
Combing.
Wow.
No, it was just combing regular and then just all of a sudden it snapped.
Really?
Yeah.
That is BS.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It cost me six bucks.
If that.
Hey.
Maybe I stole it from a hotel.
You could have.
Yeah.
That's probably why.
It's real cheap. Real cheap. It was made of paper. Yeah, it from a hotel you could have yeah that's probably why it's real cheap
real cheap it was made of paper yeah it was a paper comb don't get it wet
only oh this is a dry comb only don't get it wet it says right on it don't get it wet
um it has instructions on it wait for hair to dry. Okay. No product. And then just sort of put it over.

I did a show in Flagstaff, Arizona,

It's a segment in which
we hear things out there
in the great wide world.
And then we come into the tiny little studio and then we rebroadcast it back out to the great wide world.
And so it's an ecosystem. Yeah. It works. It's the cycle of water.
Yes, it's the water cycle. Oh, the water cycle. Yeah. And we always like to start with the guests Okay Okay Can I do an oversaw, overseen?
Yeah
It's very short, but it's just something that I saw and I didn't like it
Okay
Fair enough
I'm warning you right now
Fair enough
This person is on my hate list, I told you
I hate a lot of people
Yeah, yeah, yeah
This person's right on it
I was walking down the street to Main Street by my house and I saw a gentleman walking his cute little dog and the dog went number two.
And I saw the man look at the poo and literally go.
Oh, no.
He thought about the poo.
Went.
Not today.
And left it. And I watched him leave the poo, went, hmm. Not today. And left it.
And I watched him leave the poo.
It's right near a park where children play and will inevitably step in that dog's crap.
Yeah.
Or Somersault.
Or Somersault.
Who knows?
I don't know.
I can't be sure.
Oh, man.
Just finishing a Somersault.
Look at me.
Oh, no.
Look at me.
All down your back.
But the moment of, hmm, he had it.
Yeah.
He did a physical movement.
I've only got one bag left.
Yeah.
And I was going to use it to carry home penny candy.
Penny candy.
What's penny candy?
Penny candy is like.
Candy for pennies.
Yeah.
With the, you know, 7-Eleven or whatever. Joke's on you. We don't have pennies yeah at the you know 7-11
jokes on you
we don't have pennies anymore
yeah
that's true
guys you didn't know
no
you can't get penny candy anymore
because they got rid of the penny
yes
damn
but I got these rolls of pennies
I do have a lot of pennies
still kicking around
do you
yeah
what am I supposed to do with them
I don't know
just throw them in the trash?
Are they recyclable?
Yeah, I hope they're recyclable.
In my suggested ads in the sidebar of a website, one of them today was an eBay ad, and it was for two big things of pennies.
There's got gotta be some
value to the metal of them.
But it was, well it wasn't
the whole thing that they're not worth
the cent.
But yeah.
So it said, cause I guess
banks will still have to take them.
Oh. It was two
like I guess it was
there were giant baskets like not giant baskets but like Oh, it was too. Like, I guess it was.
There were giant baskets, like, like not giant baskets, but like basically shopping baskets, like at a grocery store filled with pennies. Wow.
But not with all the holes that the pennies would fall out.
And it said there was $25 worth of brand new untouched pennies.
Ooh.
And for sale for $25 worth.
For sale for, why don't you guess?
$15.
$25.
$108.
Shut up.
For best offer.
Shut up.
My best offer is $25.
$25 for $25.
Straight up swap.
Why?
And also shipping.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Shipping's really, that's where they nail you.
What's shipping going to be?
You got to have those pennies.
It's not Wayfair.
They don't ship free.
Not Wayfair.
It ain't Wayfair.
Now, you said that you have a list of things that you hate.
Yes.
What would be in your top three?
We're a love show, Graham.
This is not a hate show.
I know.
I'm sorry.
I know.
I was taught growing up, every time I say hate, it always makes me cringe because every time i said that growing up it was a very we don't hate things amy we dislike them
you dislike so that's number one on your hate list yeah that's number one i hate that um honestly i
have so many things that i hate like i don't even know where to begin really yes so you keep a
formal list no but i should I should. You should.
Because sometimes I forget
what I hate
when it happens.
Oh, I hate forgetting too.
Just put it
like just in the notes
on your phone.
What I hate.
Yeah.
When something
that happens that you hate
just make a note of it
just to make sure.
I hate cyclists
that don't know
how to share the road.
Okay.
Are you a cyclist as well?
I should be more of a cyclist.
I do cycle and I'm very aware when I'm on the road.
But when they're not sharing the road with cars?
The cars.
Okay.
Yeah.
This is you as a driver?
This is me as a driver.
I'm respectful.
My dad is an avid cyclist.
Mm-hmm.
And I, I just don't, you're not a car and move over and we will share together.
Yeah.
And you don't go in front of me like that because
you're if i don't want to hit you because then you'll die yeah i don't want to go to jail yeah
and i want you to die i've been yeah like uh i've been snapped at by other bicyclists like when i'm
in my car uh because you know they've had 50 close calls with cars in a day yeah and i like i didn't
do anything wrong and they're like nothing bad happened yeah but like they just lost it on me
and i i find it actually i do find it's easy to empathize with them i'm like yeah no i get it
i do understand the other side of it i do and i know there's a lot of a-hole drivers that like
don't know how to respect cyclists.
I totally get that.
I guess it's just the ones that are like arrogant and no helmet and like, oh God.
Wasn't there a, what's happening with the helmet law right now?
There was something that really, I'll tell you someone that was on my hate list for this too.
It's reminding me.
I don't know.
It's making me all fired up.
There was something in the
news like last year or something about helmet about the use of helmet or the what the law is
or they were going to take away they're going to take away a helmet they were going to say that
you didn't need to have a helmet you gotta have a helmet we gotta have a helmet so this
they interviewed this man this middle-aged man with his daughter on the back he had one of those
really cool makeshift like things on the back of his bike where his daughter could sit on the back, he had one of those really cool makeshift things on the back of his bike where his daughter could sit on the back really comfortably.
It was really cool.
And anyways, he was so arrogantly being like, I don't wear one.
My daughter doesn't wear one.
We don't need it.
Oh, yikes.
Oh.
Yikes.
Okay, because so when I don't see you or you swerve out of the way or something and then your bike tips over and you both go to heaven or hell.
He's going to hell. He's going to hell.
He might want to hell.
She's probably going to heaven.
She's no better.
Yeah, that's true.
They just.
When they separate, one goes up, one goes down.
Bye bye.
Right.
I just thought it was so, geez.
And they featured this guy.
Yeah.
So and so, Greg Roberts thinks that.
Did she, did, I'm sorry.
I hate to harp on this heaven and hell thing.
Did he say whether she was baptized?
He didn't say.
He didn't say.
So there's, that's a factor, right?
I, I, I was always under the impression that the, the, like whenever anyone complained about the helmets being mandatory and like you can get a ticket for not wearing a helmet in theory.
I don't think anyone ever does.
Yeah.
And like, you can get a ticket for not wearing a helmet in theory.
I don't think anyone ever does.
Yeah.
But that because healthcare is free, like it's a trade off.
Right.
Like if you're going to do something dangerous, then you need to protect yourself. Yeah.
Because we're all paying for your brain.
Yeah.
And just do it.
Like, I don't understand.
Like I do.
And I do.
Like, obviously there's been times a couple in my life where I've, but I'm pretty strong about wearing a helmet because I don't want to die.
Like I don't want to smash my head open on the ground.
It would be a pretty, like if you were in a ward of people that had like severe brain injuries and yours was just because you didn't wear a helmet, you'd feel like a jackass.
Right.
Right?
Totally.
You'd feel like an idiot.
Exactly.
If you were the one everybody else like
you know i saved a kid from a burning building or whatever yeah and then you're like i just didn't
wear a helmet yeah that's that guy's in hell saying why are you here i didn't wear a helmet
you're an idiot you're an idiot that's not cool yeah wear a helmet or go to hell yeah there you
go there it is they put hell in helmet it's not heaven very good it's not heaven, man. Very good.
It's not called have helmet.
Yeah.
No.
Dave, do you have an over here?
Mine is an overseen.
I am Facebook friends with many of my high school teachers.
Oh, you're.
Okay.
All right.
Voted most likely two.
No, I think maybe just one.
But he's like a crotchety old guy and definitely not of our generation.
And I just saw this, came across my Facebook timeline.
Just his status was, I'm keeping my landline.
I use paper maps.
Roll your eyes all you want, cyberpunks.
That's like Billy Idol and crew.
I imagine the Billy Idol album, Cyberpunk.
That's amazing.
I'm keeping my landline.
Okay.
All right.
Even my burns are outdated.
Cyberpunk's.
Although having a landline now, I think it'd be nice.
Yeah.
It'd be nice to have just a phone dedicated to just talking.
It's a nice feel in the hand.
Oh, yeah.
The thick handheld.
Yeah, because I talk to my parents on the phone.
That's about it.
Maybe the government when I can't remember my password.
No, they're after me again.
Oh, God.
I don't want to talk about it.
It's none of my business.
I don't have a landline, but I might as well because my phone is plugged in 23 hours a day.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, we really evolved.
You haven't overheard.
I do.
Cyberpunk.
Paper maps, though.
I know.
He's not giving it up.
Unwieldy in their day.
Unwieldy now.
Just have a voice tell you where to go.
Yeah. their day unwieldy now just have a voice tell you where to go yeah there was like i went in a store
in the yukon they had maps for sale and i was like huh is that just for people who are putting them
up on their walls yeah literally like people of our generation just have framed maps yeah totally
like it's just we frame them now yeah yeah it's it's fun you know put a little pushpin in there
great on a gallery wall.
Red is for where you've been.
Blue is for where you want to go.
Oh.
Fun.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Make a house a home.
Mm-hmm.
Live, laugh, learn.
Yep.
My overheard was courtesy of some real, real loudmouths on the bus.
Some cyberpunks, if I'm being quite honest.
The loud mouths on the bus go blah, blah, blah.
That's right.
And this guy just was commenting on every single storefront that we passed by.
And at one point, I just liked the way he said it.
He said, dude, what the fuck is poke
he knew how to say it he knew how to say it but he didn't know
did you tell him no i didn't want to i didn't want to and also uh what would you have told
them yeah uh it's like sushi deconstructed in a bowl that's what i would have said i've never
had it it's good is it good oh yes the right ones are good is it like sushi deconstructed
i think oh yeah but with more rice right yeah you can choose you can be like rice salad both
i do both okay go ahead let's get into it build me a pokeball okay so i like to go to pacific poke
it's either poke or poke i guess Poke is probably how you say it.
Yeah, Poke.
So, okay, Poke.
Well, the guy on the bus said Poke, so it is Poke.
And I go and I say I would like brown rice, half brown rice, half salad, or half lettuce rather.
Wait, brown rice, half brown rice?
No, half brown rice.
Okay.
Half salad.
Keep up.
Like I'm taking dictation here.
I was pitch perfect.
Okay.
So half rice, half salad.
Then you get like tuna and crab and you get like a special mayo.
Maybe there's avocado in it.
Maybe some sprouts.
Is it subway style where you go along a thing?

This first one comes from Aaron in Whitehorse.
Oh!
Aaron A or E?
E.
Oh, girl Aaron.
Girl Aaron.
You don't know.
Oh, that's true.
Could be E-H-R-E-N.
Yep.
Yep.
It's not, but it could be.
So as I was getting out of my car
at the grocery store,
I heard a kid yell out,
John, from a nearby car.
Well, that's not this person's name.
This person's name's Aaron.
That's what he said.
But I felt, my name is not John, but I felt compelled to look over in that direction.
And the kid, after a pause, continued, Jacob Jingleheimer.
That's awesome.
Yeah.
Great kid.
Great prank kid. Great humor. Yeah. Great prank kid.
Great humor.
Yeah.
I like that kid.
I like that kid too.
Was that a campfire song?
I learned it from Lamb Chop.
Yeah.
Oh.
Oh.
Yeah.
Shirley.
Yeah.
What's her name?
Shirley Lewis.
Shirley Lewis?
Sherry Lewis.
Sherry.
Oh, my hand is off.
Sorry.
But I was thinking Shirley was right too.
And I was thinking of Shirley MacLaine, famous redheads.
Yes.
Famous redheads of a bygone era.
There's nobody, aside from terrorist puppet guy, there's nobody making the rounds with a puppet.
But, you know, in her day, there was probably a couple.
Was she good with the puppet?
I don't know.
She was on The Tonight Show several times.
I only remember.
Johnny Carson seemed to think it was very funny.
Did she move her lips?
Or was it like,
Which one?
Sherry?
Sherry Lewis.
Oh.
On the TV show, Lamb Chops Play Along,
where kids come to play along,
and fun things are all we ever do.
Oh, yeah.
Go on.
We got a lot of good stuff for you, and and you and especially you wow um i don't sing i recite but i just
remember close-ups of the the puppets i don't remember whether her mouth i don't think her
mouth moved no yeah i think she was a proper eventual eventro and but like yeah she was like
on the tonight show she wasn't old enough to have been on ed sullivan or was she i don't know she
must have dyed her hair yeah yeah hard to tell it's hard to tell and you know what i feel like
even when that show was on it was old but it probably wasn't i don't know lamb jobs play along
yeah oh no that one felt
contempo oh yeah yeah talked about contemporary things magic johnson and such yeah yeah um
hey kids
here's my magic just is not playing basketball anymore i feel like there was a videotape at
blockbuster that you could rent for free. Arsenio and... Yeah. Yes.
Yeah. We were talking about this.
And there was another one, too.
There was all the cartoons from NBC got together to talk about not doing drugs.
You could also rent that one for free.
For free.
I don't remember that.
Because it was not fun.
Oh.
That's why.
I didn't really want to know about it.
Yeah.
A half hour.
I remember picking it up as a kid and being like, look, Mom, I'm free.
Oh, never mind.
I don't want to lecture
on videotape.
This next one comes from
John in Lethbridge.
John!
In brackets, time being.
So, maybe he's on the move.
He's on the move.
Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt.
I was at one of the few good pubs in town.
Oh, shots fired.
No wonder he's leaving.
When I overheard a guy at the bar top talking loudly, rapidly, and forwardly to the young woman he was with.
It seemed as if they were on a first date.
First, he was asking her about skiing.
A while later, he said dismissively, yeah, I went to swing dance one night one time.
Those guys that go there, they're all right with those moves, I guess.
They're not very athletic, put it that way.
They just know the steps.
Like, have you ever seen how a penguin moves in the water, but it's awful the rest of the time?
Yeah, like that.
Wow. This guy wrote down so much of what the guy said
he really did he doesn't want to see penguins walk around he just wants to see them swim
yeah which is like i guess they're very graceful when they swim and the rest of the time they're
kind of a disaster yeah it's a little wobbly. The swing dance guys are real clunky.
They're real fluid
on the floor.
And it's not a Zuzu riot.
Yeah.
Are people still
swing dancing?
And if so, where?
Yeah.
Good question.
Yeah.
I don't know anybody
that swing,
that's a,
maybe it's.
I know,
but it's people you do,
you probably do know
and they're going to
whip out the moves
on the right night.
They're training. It's, they've been, they've been going to whip out the moves on the right night they're training
they've been going to swing nights without you
and you're going to be at a
wedding with them and a swing song is going to
come on and their gal is going to
come on with her gams up to here
and they're going to love it
it's going to blow you away
this past weekend a comedian
named Ron Jostle
there was a piano backstage
and he sat down
and just started beautifully playing
the love song from the movie Terminator.
Oh my God.
And it just,
it was the best.
Does this have lyrics?
No,
but it's just like the medley
from the love sequence.
That's amazing.
But like,
just to be able to have something.
Yeah.
To kind of surprise everybody.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. That reminds me like are you guys into that uh like when people for their wedding they choreograph like a big
dance for everybody i don't know i just like that they put in some effort yeah you're right
maybe just being a hater i'm just hating too much i mean like you don't want to sit through it i mean
i think it's cool i guess but then also i'm kind of like, maybe I'm hate watching.
Abby and I felt that.
I don't know.
I don't think so.
Abby and I felt like we felt that we had to do it.
Yes, so you did.
After I did such an extravagant lip dub proposal.
What?
Yeah, what was your lip dub song?
Oh, what was my lip dub song by natalie embrulia that's right
and the song that you danced to was um oh boy what was another natalie embrulia song
did she do a cover of some other song maybe um torn was a cover oh shit poof my gosh poof poof poof
poof
you guys don't know
the original Torn
by Edna Swap
what kind of dance
did you do
a choreographed dance
no we did not do it
a choreographed dance
oh you didn't
okay
you know it is cool
I was just thinking now
maybe that's me
like to each their own
do your thing
and maybe I would enjoy it
but it's kind of a lot
it is a lot
I gotta watch it
what if it's not very good if it's not very good?
If it's not very good
it's very bad.
Well, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's like you know that.
But also like
you don't have anything else
to plan on a wedding.
You had so much free time
after wedding planning
that you worked on a dance.
That's why this
this salad so subpar.
Yeah, we're focused
on the salad.
The food was crap
but the dance.
This last one comes from Bruce
in Rockland, Ontario.
Written in the dust and salt on the
back of a truck trailer.

Final overheard guys
Hey David Graham
This is Jeremy from Greenfield
Massachusetts I'm calling you with an overheard.
I was walking down the hallway in the church, and I overheard a lady say,
Nicholas loves picking up dog poop.
And that's pretty much it.
Off I go.
Good for Nicholas.
You know what?
You should hook him up with the guy on your street.
Absolutely.
And also, yeah, he needs that person.
My eldest nephew loves picking up poo as well.
Really?
So it's a thing.
It's a thing.
He's a poo picker upper.
Like in a cleanly, like cleaning up the yard.
We pretend that he's like on a show.
And then at the end that he, when he picks up the poo, he goes, another job well done.
What show? His own show. own show yeah yeah on my phone i have the video somewhere and he goes at the end he goes another job well
done but he can't say his r's another job well done no he's good at picking up poo i love it
hey i love it when uh when somehow a kid's absorbed that from the media.
He knows how to do a show.
Have a catchphrase and say it towards the camera.
Totally.
Can we get shirts made?
And he was like looking and like telling me to come, like telling the camera to come over and see the poo while he picked it up.
And then wanted me to film him saying another job well done.
Because it was.
He did a great job.
He got it all. he got it all yeah
he got it all it's a big dog oh yeah but it's good if you got old uh he is four really he's
five i'm sorry he's five i've got a four-year-old i wouldn't trust her who you know who tiny dog

One I laughed at, but then I kind of felt sad.
Or no, it was because I laughed at the baby.
One threw one at their dog's face.
