Starting point is 00:01:22 What are you listening to on your iPod on the bus that's so important? It's probably reruns of The Strombo Show or something like that. The Oprah podcast. There's not an Oprah podcast. Yeah, there is. I've never listened to it. We are neck and neck with the Oprah podcast. But yeah, Sarah was the first person to actually write uh in that she enjoyed the podcast i'm a
Starting point is 00:01:48 bumper shame on the rest of the bumpers out there that is remaining silent for no good reason and if you don't know what a bumper is go to the first five minutes of the first episode just download that and then press stop because then the rest of the episode kind of swirls out of control i don't even bother listening to it anymore although really why would i keep any of these to listen to over and over sit back and listen to episode four oh memories those were the days the charlie one yeah that one was fun yeah i think i might listen to that later anybody who's listening to this now the next one you should listen to is the Charlie one.
Starting point is 00:02:25 That one was fun. So here we are. Number 10. What anniversary is that when you count down anniversaries? I think it's the paper anniversary. Silver? No. That's 25. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:39 10. Is 10 paper or wood? I don't know. 10 years or 10 podcasts? I think the traditional gift is shells. Oh, I thought it was lifesavers. So I'll just put those back in my bag until episode 15. Et cetera.
Starting point is 00:02:54 Et cetera. Dave, want to get to... Know us? Yeah. How do we finish each other's sentences like that? Let's play the music. Yeah. How do we finish each other's sentences like that?
Starting point is 00:03:04 Let's play the music. Get to know us. And we're back. See, that's the magic of a podcast. Oh, wow. See, that's how it's done. I'm learning. You're edumacating me. Edumacating Sarah.
Starting point is 00:03:18 Sarah, why don't you start? Let's get to know you. What's shaping up? What's shaking down with yourself? Lots of stuff. I've decided to say yes to everything and don't take that in a way that I'm sure you all have taken that. Although, this, maybe this is, so not only do I have like five jobs right now. Five jobs.
Starting point is 00:03:38 Count them down. What do you do? Oh, my God. I took over for my job at my boss at Zipcar because he decided to be a stripper. Your boss decided to go be a stripper? Yeah, my boss, who was going back to school to be a philosophy major, or get his master's in philosophy. It's a he? Yeah, he.
Starting point is 00:03:56 Wow. He's now a male stripper. So they're like, oh, you fill in and train new people. And pretty much the job is doing nothing. So let's just say say if we can, can we mull a bit in the male stripper verse? I don't know why we would.
Starting point is 00:04:10 Why not? Your audience demands it. Have you seen him? No. There aren't male strip clubs, are there? There's male strip nights. There's ladies night and I think the people that he works for do a show in New West
Starting point is 00:04:26 on the weekends and he'll also be appearing at the Odyssey so he'll go both ways. Oh yeah. You'd have to I think. Yeah no the market demands it. You can't just be exclusive to one sex or the other right? Yeah. It's gotta be everything.
Starting point is 00:04:42 You're high anyways it doesn't matter. Have you ever been to a ladies night? No. Oh you're missing everything. You're high anyways. It doesn't matter. Have you ever been to a ladies' night? No. Oh, you're missing out. I went to one. It was hysterical. It was in Calgary.
Starting point is 00:04:52 Right. And it was at a place called the Plaza Nightclub. Yeah, I'm from Calgary. You're from Calgary. You know the Plaza. What high school did you guys go to? I went to Lord Beaverbrook. Oh, Wisewood.
Starting point is 00:05:05 Whoa. We're totally rivals. Bored. But the Plaza nightclub on, I think, like Thursday night would have the ladies night. But the thing is, they would not let guys in earlier. Guys could go in, and then the bouncers all came around at like 9 o'clock and ushered all the guys upstairs. And all the guys had to stay in this very dimly lit area. Just all guys.
Starting point is 00:05:30 While they had the male strippers downstairs. And male strippers are hysterical. I just want to be in a bar with all dudes. That's fun. There's plenty of opportunities for that here in Vancouver. Aren't there? I guess. I don't go out at night.
Starting point is 00:05:49 We went out. You were out at night last night. We'll get to you later. Okay, so that was job number one. So that's getting to know me and my boss. That's job number one. My other job that I do that does nothing, I'm front house manager at a theater. So you have five jobs, but you do nothing at any of them?
Starting point is 00:06:02 Well, I have a gift of finding jobs that pay me to do nothing. That's awesome. Yeah. Pretty much stand there and try and look pretty. That's good. Yeah. That's all right. Oh, but last night, this is kind of...
Starting point is 00:06:14 My agent called me yesterday morning. Yeah. It was like 11 o'clock. Like, hey... Now, agent is an industry term? Yeah. It's one of these... You're not trying to sell a house.
Starting point is 00:06:24 No, I'm an actor and um it's not a trying to break into the illustrious world of film and tv no no not yet that we didn't even say that off the top and that's my apologies that you are an actress and a performer and a writer and a yeah burgeoning comedian and uh and the inventor of a Ronco food dihydrator. You've done your research. I love my banana chips. And the Teen X Poetry
Starting point is 00:06:55 event. The event is called Teen X. You can read anything. Not just bad poetry. I just wrote a lot of really bad poetry. And if you haven't people out there that haven't heard sarah's stuff it is hysterical it is hysterical uh which is the highest compliment right we can give in the western world thank you it's like a gold medal it's pretty much uh the most fun i've ever had embarrassing myself consistently oh wait wait
Starting point is 00:07:22 but wait so my agent called me yes i was gonna. Yes, I was going to underail. She's like, so tonight, I need you to go to this hotel and meet with this New York producer. Tonight? No, last night.
Starting point is 00:07:34 Wow. And it's for this weird showcase thing with American network executives. And I'm like, well, you're my agent and I trust you.
Starting point is 00:07:44 So it's at the bosman hotel and oh yeah that's yeah i'm thinking like i've never heard of i've never heard of this so um i show up and thinking it's like one of those boutique places no it's like well you know what it is i know it where is it it's on how street sort of across from the cinemateek i reckon i can remember i can picture the sign in my head. It's like a hotel lounge. Yeah, well, it kind of looks like you're all of a sudden, you're downtown Vancouver, but you're in some motel in the Okanagan.
Starting point is 00:08:12 Yeah, yeah, yeah. It looks like something out of Vacation, right? A motor hotel. Except, but it's the bar where Clark Griswold is wearing the white shoes. You know that bar? That's Bosman's. Okay. Yeah. You did? That's Bosman's. Okay. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:27 You did a showcase in Bosman's? No, no, I didn't audition in a hotel room in Bosman's. Oh, that's legit. Yeah, right? Because, I mean, you know, agents, that's like rule number one. Don't audition in hotels. So, I mean, at least for the story, I'm like, why not?
Starting point is 00:08:43 So, I came from my other job so i'm wearing like my pretty dress and i'm wearing heels and i'm like i'm knocking on a door thing like i'm totally an escort i look like such a whore i like how you said whore whores don't say it like that no um yeah and it pretty much was kind of legit but weird weird. I bet. Very weird. I mean, we'll see if anything comes of it. Why was it in a hotel room? I don't know. Was anyone sitting on the bed while you auditioned? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:09:12 No, all the furniture was pushed up against the wall to the playing room, because I guess he was working with... He's like, everyone else left. It's just me. I'm like, okay, this is maybe a 60-year-old Jewish guy from New York. So he wasn't lying on the bed with his shoes off? Unfortunately, no. Oh, I ordered the manager of a zip car.
Starting point is 00:09:30 I assumed you'd be a male stripper. Oh, yeah. So, yeah, and then I read some scene from Lost in Yonkers, and he talked to me for like 20 minutes and I left. Please tell me they're making a remake of Lost in Yonkers. What is Lost in Yonkers, and he talked to me for like 20 minutes and I left. Please tell me they're making a remake of Lost in Yonkers. What is Lost in Yonkers? It's a Neil Simon play. Yeah, it was a play. And then was it
Starting point is 00:09:51 a movie? Yes. Yeah. But not a good one. Neil Simon's got a bit of a track record of making really good plays that turn into really awful movies. Well, don't blame him. I will do just that. You're on my list.
Starting point is 00:10:07 Tell me about your, your, any, any more jobs? Oh, I don't want to talk about any more. Well, I,
Starting point is 00:10:12 and then like writing and I'm the publicist for this theater festival. That's cool. What's the theater festival called? It's a, it's the walking
Starting point is 00:10:20 fish festival. I know they like, I'm kind of doing this thing. Yep. Um, which basically I don't of doing this thing. Yep. Which basically I don't have time to do anything else for right now. Walking Fish, like the Darwin Fish? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:30 It's this theater company called Up in the Air, and they've done it for six years. And it's basically emerging theater artists. So they try and get people from all different theater schools, and they get people to write plays. Yeah. And then they get actors and directors and pretty much they put it together in like three weeks. We saw a play last night. Oh, what did you see?
Starting point is 00:10:52 Graham and I went to go see a play because it's my policy to see a play every decade. Yeah. And it was... Probably a good policy. Yeah. It was a play that a friend of ours... Oh, The Dissemblers? Yeah, The Dissemblers. Yeah, it was a play that a friend of ours... Oh, The Dissemblers?
Starting point is 00:11:05 Yeah, The Dissemblers. By Jason Bryan. I saw that. Are we going to discuss that? I more want to discuss that Jane made us late for it. But you're shrugging. Yeah, I don't think you need to throw Jane under the bus.
Starting point is 00:11:21 Why not? They weren't really late. They were late to the point that I had to pre-buy them tickets. Yeah. And then call us and find out where we were. Yeah. But, you know, they didn't. That's not good theater etiquette.
Starting point is 00:11:34 You were there before showtime. That was bad theater etiquette on our part, really. Why did I lump myself in with it? It wasn't me. Oh, well. So we went to theater, but was that was the funniest thing is that dave says that he refuses to go to see theater uh unless it's somebody that he knows was that the policy or what i don't know that i have a policy oh okay i just you just don't go to see
Starting point is 00:11:57 theater yeah that's not really a policy it's a preference i prefer theater of the box television a theater of the box television. It's not theater in the round. Right. So, well, okay. Yeah, it was a fine play. He's a burgeoning. A burgeoning new voice in theater. I think I might have used burgeoning twice
Starting point is 00:12:17 in this podcast. And he's a future guest of the podcast. Yeah. Excellent. He's a very, very funny man. And the play was very, very about vancouver so if you didn't live here there might be a lot of gaps in the uh but a joke tonight's the last night of the play and the podcast won't be out by then so so it is take our word for it yeah just take our word
Starting point is 00:12:40 for it um well that should be a segment where we just do something where it's impossible to disprove us. Yeah. And then we just say, take our word for it. There's a lot of things we could do with that. But I don't know. Should we get... Have we gotten to know Sarah? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:59 Is there more? Do you have anything that happened this week that was extraordinary? No, pretty much the hotel. The hotel thing was pretty good. Yeah. That's the highlight of my week. That's tough to top. Good call. Dave? Or do you have anything that happened this week that was extraordinary? No, pretty much the hotel. The hotel thing was pretty good. Yeah, that's a. That's the highlight of my week. That's tough to top.
Starting point is 00:13:08 Good call. Dave. Let's get to know Dave. I had a big week. I know. You were saying. You were bragging it up. Well, last Friday, I made some soft pretzels. Really?
Starting point is 00:13:21 Yep. Here? Yep. In your house? In my house. From scratch? Yes. Wow. Yeah. Where'd you get the recipe? Yep. Here? Yep. In your house? In my house. From scratch? Yes. Wow.
Starting point is 00:13:26 Yeah. Where'd you get the recipe? Internet. Yes. I've tried many internet recipes. I've got one cooking at home in a slow cooker right now. Oh, really? Don't know how it's going to turn out.
Starting point is 00:13:38 No, they were great. What you do is you make bread. See, that's a quite involved process. Oh, it absolutely is. And I killed the yeast. It's an industry term. Well, it's a living organism. Right.
Starting point is 00:13:54 So I had to remake it with the better yeast. Are vegans against using yeast? Nothing with a face. It might have a mini face. Probably. Well, it's a living thing are you a vegan i was for a year in calgary how is whoa so you were just eating gum off the street pretty much it was i was anorexic i just say that i was vegan that's a good way to say yeah
Starting point is 00:14:20 anorexic jokes are hilarious i agree. They're the new dead baby jokes. If I may be so bold. You were a vegan in Calgary. I did eat yeast when I was. I was a lazy vegan in Calgary. Did you eat honey? Yes. Yeah, see.
Starting point is 00:14:37 I know of some militant vegans that are anti-honey. But honey doesn't come out of bees. As our friend Ben Mills has investigated and discussed. vegans that are anti-honey. But honey doesn't come out of bees. As our friend Ben Mills has investigated and discussed. But sometimes they're treated really poorly by the beekeepers. There was some argument about that. I was like, it's the only sugar I have.
Starting point is 00:14:56 I heard a crazy thing on CBC Radio this morning about Quirks and Quirks. Not this morning, but I do listen. There's a plant that so perfectly mimics a female insect that these male insects are landing on it and actually having sex with the flowers. Yeah, anyways, I just thought I'd throw that in
Starting point is 00:15:19 and then stop it awkwardly. That's what I wanted to do. I've had sex with flowers. Is that like a... It's an industry term. That's what I wanted to do. I've had sex with flowers. Is that like a... It's an industry term. Oh, it's an industry term. All right. Silence.
Starting point is 00:15:31 So you made a soft pretzel. I made eight soft pretzels. Did you put the big chunky salt on it? Okay. Of course. Relax. Did you eat it with mustard or didn't you? Yes.
Starting point is 00:15:44 Okay. But you eat it with mustard or didn't you? Yes. Okay. But you make the pretzel, you boil it, and then you take it out and then you bake it. So it's involved. Anyway. How long did that take? Oh, a good afternoon. A great afternoon. That sounds like a great afternoon.
Starting point is 00:16:01 Dave, you're making use of your time, and that's what I like about you. Well, I don't have five jobs like some people. If you can't go to New York, bring it to you. I wish I could make soft pretzels. I mean, really. I know. Much more valuable use. Although in New York, the water's different, so it's better.
Starting point is 00:16:15 Yeah. And they're handed to you on the street over top of a steaming sewer grate. Can I also tell you what happened this week? Can I tell you what else happened this week? Please do. Yeah. I did Paul Anthony's show. The Wednesday show.
Starting point is 00:16:30 Talent Time. Talent Time. Have you done it? Have you been there? No, I'm not cool enough to do that show. Have you seen it? I saw the first one. Okay.
Starting point is 00:16:37 And then I didn't go back. Oh. Oh, slam. Sorry, Paul. So, never mind. Who was it? It was great. Slam.
Starting point is 00:16:41 Sorry, Paul. So never mind. Who was it? It was great. I really enjoyed the... You do a little kind of talk show segment where you sit down with them and then you go do your stand-up bit. Did you do it?
Starting point is 00:16:56 You had to do it before your stand-up bit? Yeah, which was weird. I did it after mine and my sit-down segment was vastly superior to my stand-up segment. I think both of mine were good enough. You were wearing a crazy jacket that looked like a gingerbread man. It was great.
Starting point is 00:17:13 It's a brown felt jacket. With blue trim and it looks like a gingerbread man would wear it. It's my sailing jacket. Sailing on your gingerbread boat. All right, leave. Why don't you stop talking about gingerbread? Because I can't. Because that's all I can think about now.
Starting point is 00:17:27 You're going to Candy Drop Island. Yeah, it's a good show. But before me, he has a segment where he finds a guest on Craigslist. Oh, nice. Oh, I didn't know that. A random entertainer. And the entertainer was a puppeteer. I saw the photo on the website.
Starting point is 00:17:50 Hilarious. And then he came out later as a mime. Oh, good. I was sandwiched between him and him. A puppet. But a puppet style and a mime style. Yeah, which are my favorite kung fu styles. I like crane. I like tiger. I like puppet mime style. Yeah, which are my favorite kung fu styles. I like crane.
Starting point is 00:18:05 I like tiger. I like puppet mime. I like juggler. I like John Leguizamo. That's my favorite kung fu style. John Leguizamo. What else happened to me this week? Well, I saw Iron Man.
Starting point is 00:18:20 I did too. Yeah, Graham and I actually went to see Iron Man at the exact same time at different theaters. Yeah, and my theater experience, I think, was vastly different than yours. Probably. Which theaters? You went to the Fifth Avenue. Nope.
Starting point is 00:18:32 I went to the Van East. Oh, the Van East. I went to the Scotiabank Center. Have you seen Ironman? Nope, and I won't, probably. What? I'm too busy auditioning in a hotel room. That's Fair enough.
Starting point is 00:18:45 What was your experience? What was your experience? Because I want to see if this is going on at theaters everywhere. It might be similar. Because mine seemed to have a lot of mental defectives. Okay. A lot of people that were kind of unfit for for society uh by themselves no that's but that's every movie i've been to in the past year it's a lot of matinees i find have a lot of
Starting point is 00:19:12 random people by themselves and opening weekends yeah yeah uh people who like one guy actually injured like shook at the hand of one of the people there by themselves like oh i recognize you from assisted living really yeah oh and it was a guy who worked there who recognized a uh a client client that's what they called him yeah and so there were a lot of uh loners crazy loners here's the thing that i had at my movie which i don't know if they do at the van east i'm pretty sure they don't but there's a new movement that I'm seeing, and I don't like it. I think I'm going to stop going to movies because of this. It used to be that there was trailers, then the movie.
Starting point is 00:19:54 Then there were ads before the trailers, and then there were the trailers, then the movie. Now there's ads just while you're sitting there before the ads, before the trailer, before the movie start up. And now, in addition to, they had a mini George Strombolopoulos show that they had made specifically for movie theaters with him and Sean Majumder. Just audio? No, like they filmed it as part of the hour, but they filmed like these specific segments
Starting point is 00:20:22 just for movie theaters where they're talking about movie. It was horrible being was it like the sketches that he does before the show where he's trying to like no it's funny where they're in the chairs oh so that means like after the interview is done the producers had to go over to them and say okay well now we've got to tape a segment for cineplex audio here's ten thousand dollars each so but that now there's no talk like now there's no talking before the movie at all you just sit there and you're berated what you should do is next time you go if they're doing that you should shush people beside you i'm watching strombo so that was bad but what was great was uh it was chock-a-block it's completely full but the
Starting point is 00:21:07 two people that were next to myself and alicia tobin were watching it they had so many snacks like so many snacks and not theater snacks that was the greatest at first he had and like every time we looked over he had a different snack a baked, he had a different snack. A baked potato? He had a slice of pizza. They don't sell that at the movie theaters. I'll tell you that. No, don't they at the Scotiabank? Scotiabank has everything.
Starting point is 00:21:33 They sell Kentucky Fried Chicken. They sell nachos. This Can't Be Yogurt. The country's best yogurt. TCBY? TCBY used to be This Can't Be Yogurt. But I believe they were sued by It Can't Be Yog yogurt. TCBY? TCBY used to be this can't be yogurt, but I believe they were sued by it can't be yogurt, ICBY. So now it's the country's best yogurt. The country's best yogurt.
Starting point is 00:21:55 Yeah. That's, wow. I didn't, that's a thing that's going on a lot. I majored in yogurt. I majored in yogurt. The shortening of restaurants like the KFC and the Panago. But there was another one that I saw that I was like... What is Panago? Panago used to be Panagopolis.
Starting point is 00:22:14 It used to be Panagopolis Pizza. Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah. And now it's just Panago. It's bringing it back. Wow. Yeah. In Calgary, did you guys have Pizza 222?
Starting point is 00:22:23 No. We had Pizza 73. Yeah. 273 222? No. We had pizza 73. Yeah. 273, 7373. Oh. Pizza 73. There you go. The pizza's on without their chain on.
Starting point is 00:22:32 That was it. The pizza's on, which really was, when it came out in the 80s, was probably a really awesome slogan. We had pizza 222, and their slogan was called 222, 222, fuck you. That was not it. Honest to God. Honest to God. It was weird, because that's the weird thing, too, is that we, because we're right close
Starting point is 00:22:55 to the border in Vancouver and in Calgary, you get a lot of ads for pizza places that you've never been to and will never go to by proximity. Like Godfather's Pizza. I've never been to a Godfather's Pizza, but for my entire youth, there were always ads for Godfather's Pizza. Is that the take-and-make place? Yeah, and he'd be dressed like a Godfather, and he would say, do it.
Starting point is 00:23:19 Yeah, but I never saw a Godfather's Pizza in real life, unless I went down to Spokane or Coeur d'Alene. Coeur d'Alene, oh, yeah. Those are great commercials. Yeah, oh, brings me back. But every time I looked over, he had a different snack. It started with a slice of pizza, and then I think he had something else that was inappropriate,
Starting point is 00:23:39 like chicken wings, right? Like not popcorn chicken, but like... Chicken wings? But he kept bumping his friend and like do you want the godfather did yeah the godfather i was sitting next to him in the theater you're not following me at all no uh but i liked iron did you have burlington coat factory uh burlington coat no not until i moved out here. Right. And King of Floors is also Burlington Cove. I thought we had it in Calgary. No.
Starting point is 00:24:09 Oh, Burlington Cove, maybe. I know. I remember. We didn't have King of Floors. I know that. King of Floors is exclusive to out here. Yeah. And he's from Seattle or thereabouts.
Starting point is 00:24:20 Yeah. Yeah, Washington. Washington State. Washington State. He's slimmed down. Yeah, good for him. God bless. God bless.
Starting point is 00:24:28 What happened to the Queen of Flowers? Ooh. Keep going. What happened to you this week? Are we there yet? What happened to me this week? I thought that we were slowly just bleeding into that with the Iron Man. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:37 And I already talked about the play. I know, but I want to be... My show got canceled. That was pretty anticlimactic. That was pretty anticlimactic That was an anticlimactic kind of show Was that like they gave you one week notice? Yeah That's nice
Starting point is 00:24:50 Yeah well I mean it was better than zero weeks notice I suppose That's true Have you seen two weeks notice? The movie With Sandra Bullock? Yes I am the Sandra Bullock completist and you know that Have you seen Hope Floats?
Starting point is 00:25:05 Yes, I've seen Hope Floats. Why would I say that? And then you would throw in the number one Sandra Bullock movie. Fine. Have you seen Numbers? No. Yes. What was the one with Ryan Gosling?

And John Buehler got really mad at the crowd and kind of made it awkward for everybody. And he was. He was really angry.
Starting point is 00:25:51 But not... He said that the restaurant smelled like a pumpkin fart. But which... Because now see that's the thing is he said it once but then he said it a second time. Like he said it like the first time. He's like it smells like like pumpkin fart in here. And then some people laughed, some people didn't.
Starting point is 00:26:07 And then he went on with it and said like, no, it smells like a pumpkin fart as if that's a real thing. And people weren't acknowledging that it actually smelled like a pumpkin fart. Like it's funny when you just say it. But that's not an actual thing you can smell. Go home. Eat two cans of pumpkin pie mix. No, but he wasn't saying it smells like a pumpkin fart he said it smells like a pumpkin farted oh which is impossible that's what i'm saying okay yeah anyways so that was my week and then that was it well i don't know uh what did i
Starting point is 00:26:41 do what did i do i should have written this down. I don't know what you do. Monday night. I think I saw you on Monday. No, I saw you on Tuesday night. Oh, at the lamplighter. That was a thing. I wasn't there. Oh, you weren't there. You missed the woman smashing the window.
Starting point is 00:26:54 Oh, that was dramatic. Holy lordy. We were at the lamplighter pub doing a show. And right in the middle of the show, like three or four acts in, some woman just walks by one of the windows and smashes it. Just the show like three or four acts in some woman just walks by one of the windows and smashes it just for like no from from outside so half every uh alpha male in the bar runs out uh and me oh man if i was there or whatever's below beta what delta delta male gamma gamma male i'm a gamma male and i ran out and uh like way after they had caught her
Starting point is 00:27:26 and like pinned her up against the wall and i just showed up like a like a toady like what's going on what are you guys gonna do and uh and yeah it was funny at first because she was denying it at first because she's the only person anywhere on the streets like the streets were completely empty she said i didn't even do it it's some other guy i don't even know and the guy wasn't gonna let her go and she's like i'll pay for it i'll pay It's some other guy. I don't even know. And the guy wasn't going to let her go. And she's like, I'll pay for it. I'll pay for it. I was like, well, that was really quick that you went from complete denial to like, okay, I'll pay for it.
Starting point is 00:27:51 Even though I'm not admitting to anything, I'll pay for your broken window randomly. And then the cops were at the show the rest of the time interviewing people. I think I got a big laugh out of one of them. Did you really? No. Oh, okay. They were not laughing at anything. Donut jokes or...
Starting point is 00:28:08 I don't get it. Whatever cops like. Arresting people? Upholding justice. Yes, justice jokes. There's no way to make that funny, though. Tasers. Oh, right, because it's so serious.
Starting point is 00:28:19 So many tasers. Too soon. Now, the thing about justice that I love... No, the thing about the Greek alphabet. Yes. Too soon. Now, the thing about justice that I love. No, the thing about the Greek alphabet. Yes. Gamma. Delta. Alpha, beta, gamma, delta, etc.
Starting point is 00:28:33 I believe it's the fourth. Zeta is the last one, right? No, omega is the last one. Oh, that makes sense. If alpha is the most significant, omega seems so much cooler well omega is the end though alpha is yeah but omega is talking omega yeah i don't know anything about it when greek people sleep when greek people sleep do they go omega omega i don't know can you find some sort of uh hilarious mediterranean comics i doubt that there is such a thing uh you don't know because uh anyways so
Starting point is 00:29:17 that's it that was it i saw a lady smash a window my show uh went Barry'sville. And then we went to a theater show. We went to a play last night. It's pretty good. I love plays. You love theater. Oh, I love all theater. I couldn't believe that you had your own opera glasses. That was great.
Starting point is 00:29:34 No, wait. So, okay. Being, having spent years learning the art of bullshit theater. Right. What is it that you don't like? I never said I don't like theater. Why don't you go? Okay.
Starting point is 00:29:48 Well, the reason I don't go is because. I mean, I know why I don't go, but why don't you go? It's very inexpensive to not go. That's true. True. True. Okay, that's one. Well, no, but why doesn't anyone go see theater? It's not like people are clamoring for theater.
Starting point is 00:30:04 No, but isn't that just, that's more like a symptomatic thing of a society getting progressively dumber? Is that it? Am I wrong? Is it that more people go to a monster truck rally? There's way more options of things to do. I suppose.
Starting point is 00:30:18 And there's way more options, like way more reasons not to leave your house. That's true. There are more reasons to not leave your house now. But, like, I really enjoyed the play last night. And so I don't want this to seem like an indictment of the play last night. No, no, no. You just hate culture.
Starting point is 00:30:34 Right. Yeah, I understand that. I don't think that's probably the case. I am a culture vulture. Yeah, you are a culture vulture. It's just a different kind of culture. Yeah. I understand. I different kind of culture. Yeah. I understand.
Starting point is 00:30:47 I like this naughty Nelly beer. No, actually, I played guitar in a play a couple years ago. Oh, that's right. A one-woman show that required... It was a rock opera. It was a fringe. Of course. And the star of it...
Starting point is 00:31:03 What else are there one-woman shows? The star of it... It was like 50 in every fringe. It's very rarely on star of it. What else are there? One woman shows. The star of it. There's like 50 in every fringe. It's very rarely on a Friday night that that comes up. What do you guys want to do? One woman show! Let's do it! N-word!
Starting point is 00:31:17 But yeah, she did a scene in it where she, as the only character, she had to dance with herself. Oh, classic one woman she changed the words of it in rehearsal to something that made me laugh so hard uh which was she had to sing and dance at the same time and she sang i am in a gay lord friend show that she wrote herself what's the worst friend show you've ever seen and like you don't have to say the name but what was the good question what was the concept um i saw one um 2004 three whatever um here in vancouver and it was just the the acting was horrible it was like a two-person show and it basically you could tell that it was like, this is their life
Starting point is 00:32:05 and it was about them being in college and not being able to find a boyfriend. Those are always the best. And, and I was at it with a, with an ex-boyfriend
Starting point is 00:32:13 and there was like, some conversation within the play about like, how his hair was retarded that basically reflected one of the conversations I had with my ex-boyfriend.
Starting point is 00:32:21 It was a little too close to home. Incredibly awkward. Like, this bad play is my life. We wanted to leave because the acting was so bad. I think there was like
Starting point is 00:32:32 a lip sync dance part. Oh, nice. Nice. Pretty classic. When I did the Fringe show, I also went on tour with it to Ottawa and Montreal. I had the option of going to other
Starting point is 00:32:47 fringe shows and i chose to go to uh almost none and but one of them was i don't even remember the concept of it it was some kind of there was a lighthouse involved basically it was these three people from montana had come to montreal to put on their fringe show and they brought so many sets and the whole thing was just these elaborate sets we've made. Wow. You didn't expect that from a fringe show. No. It's like. And that was what they hung their hat on and I almost had to sneak out so I could catch
Starting point is 00:33:22 the last train home. I almost had to sneak up so I could catch the last train home. I went to one. Actually, there was one a couple years ago, and it was one of the bring your own venue situations. Oh, yeah, those are really good. Oh, well, this one was because there's official fringe venues, and then if you want to participate still,
Starting point is 00:33:43 and if you find your own venue, you can be included in the program. The site-specific works are just people that didn't get in on the dead that's right or people that were rejected on principle but so no it's a lottery anyone can get in sure so these it was a couple of gals and the big thing was that the show was going to take place in this loft in the bathroom of the loft. I remember. Yeah, do you remember? I remember hearing about it. It was, and they were going to be naked, right? The whole
Starting point is 00:34:14 thing takes place in like this bathtub. I would have seen that. Of course you went. I went because I had an all access pass to every show in the fringe that year. I was given it. And so I thought, well, I'm going to check this out. And I couldn't get in because, like, ten people, and then it was sold out.
Starting point is 00:34:33 But the line of perverts, like, they were so clearly not the Fringe. Like, all ball caps, as far as you could, and, like, all guys. French coats? I heard there was going to be some chicks in the tub. Naked. And it's like... It's art. It's like 12 bucks, which is cheaper than two beers and a shisho.
Starting point is 00:34:53 And, you know, I could probably talk. I drank at home. So, yeah, there was that one. And then another one that was... It was supposed to be like a one-dude show, but it was just literally. I think it's called a one-man show. No, it's one-woman show, one-dude show.
Starting point is 00:35:14 Read a program. And it was just an hour of the shittiest stand-up I've ever seen. That's all it was. It was just shitty stand-up. You could do a one-dude show. Well, yeah. Between us, we've got an hour and a half of shit between We're two dudes. Yeah, but you can have two dude shows. That's the great thing the fringe man It's just fucking whatever you want to bring. Yeah, it's not mainstream. It's on the fringe
Starting point is 00:35:40 Yeah, but then what if there was a fringe of the fringe where it's all like this fucked up stuff that the fringe said no to. half the fringe said no to. So fucked up. But the other half would be towards the mainstream. It's all cockfights
Starting point is 00:35:51 at the fringe of the fringe. Cockfights and dolphin punching. I think there was a fringe of the fringe like two, three years ago and one of the things was you go into a room and you listen to a tape.
Starting point is 00:36:03 That's awesome. It's like off, off Broadway. Yeah. Des Moines. I like, really? Was there a show like that? Yeah, something like that. It was like, it's called Answering Machine.
Starting point is 00:36:18 Sound really awesome. I love art. Art's just getting better. That's what I say. Do you want to move along? Yeah, why not? Let's do Overheard. Overheard.
Starting point is 00:36:32 Welcome to Overheard. Dave, you've been bragging it up. Braggadocious. I had no Overheards until yesterday. Well, actually, I had one from the last night of your show. And I texted it to myself. And right as your show ended, I had one from the last night of your show, and I texted it to myself. And right as your show ended, I heard some people say, this is an awesome place to eat sushi. Yes.
Starting point is 00:36:55 That's for people that don't know. Our show was canceled so that it can be exclusively a sushi restaurant because, and let's just take a second here. exclusively a sushi restaurant because and let's just take a second here Vancouver in general is rife with live entertainment. Right. Not enough sushi. But where are you going to get yourself some
Starting point is 00:37:13 rice and cold fish? Where? I ask you. Chinatown? One place. Burnaby? One place. And now one place in Vancouver. Yeah. There's only three sushi restaurants in the GVRD. Thank good Lord. Anyways, so that's awesome.
Starting point is 00:37:30 But I'm glad they have some. Actually, the sushi there is pretty good. That's what I've heard. I'm allergic to seafood, so I've never had it. You're allergic to pretty much everything. Oh, that's what happened. And you're a vegetarian. So why would you choose to eliminate more food from your life?
Starting point is 00:37:47 It's a long story. I don't care. Exactly. Here's the thing. I found out I'm allergic to Gorgonzola cheese. That's something that happened last week. Specifically Gorgonzola? Any cheese with mold on it, apparently.
Starting point is 00:37:59 Super allergic. Ruined my Thursday. Super allergic. Yeah. You get allergic downstairs. Never mind. Is that like a euphemism that you want to start?
Starting point is 00:38:12 You don't get hives. You don't get anaphylactic shock. You just get allergic downstairs. Go ahead. Overheard. No, you guys have more overheards? No, you said you had like a half. You had a baker's dozen. Maybe we could go in the round. Okay, Sarah? I tried. Well, I
Starting point is 00:38:28 realized, you know, this week I'm like, I'm gonna overhear stuff, you know, working on Granville Island and going, hearing some stupid tourist stuff. You must have overheard something on Granville Island. No! Things in other languages. Not funny. I realized I think I have kind of bad hearing, but there was, and I overheard like really
Starting point is 00:38:44 sad and pathetic things. Like, I was, and I overheard like really sad and pathetic things. Like I was on the main street bus like a week ago and there's this guy sitting across the aisle from me and he's got, he looks maybe he's 20 and sort of like he used to be a football player. He's like kind of blonde, kind of redhead and beefy guy, but he's got like scabs all over his body. Like these are the like rashes and you're like, you're not doing so good.
Starting point is 00:39:06 He's talking to his friend really loud. What did he say? He was just like, my skin's so bad. I'm so stressed. Blah, blah. I gotta go to work. Oh! I found out that I have a baby in Newfoundland. My life sucks right now. What am I to do?
Starting point is 00:39:24 It was that I found out I have a baby in Newfoundland and I sold it for me how is that not hilarious things are really going rough right now they're barely a province so that was pretty much the a lot of overheards are kind of sad
Starting point is 00:39:42 and pathetic I think those are the funniest ones I've been I think those are the funniest ones I hurt my knee the other day I thought maybe I should go to the emergency room for no other reason than to hear some hilarious overheards That's a good idea
Starting point is 00:39:57 And did you? No How'd you hurt your knee? I banged it on the table You know when you bang your knee on the table and you're like, Ah, that hurts. Then it's going to hurt for a while. It was like 15 minutes of that, of agony.
Starting point is 00:40:12 What would you have done, though, if you went to the emergency room? I banged my knee on the table? They would have sent you home. Do you have Tylenol 3s? Can I get a scope? Can I get a scope? Oh, if I knew you would. I have a whole thing of Tylenol 3s. Really? I took an I-View. I had a bike accident last, if I knew you were, I have like a whole thing of Tylenol 3s.
Starting point is 00:40:25 Really? I took an iView. I had a bike accident last year and they gave me like, oh, you got a bike accident? You're going to need 40 Tylenol 3s. Wow. Was it a bicycle or a motorcycle? Bicycle. You fall off?
Starting point is 00:40:39 Yeah. Did you tell them it was a motorcycle so you could get more Tylenol 3s? No, but I was just really scraped up. Road rash? What, did you just fall off when somebody hit you um it's uh it's embarrassing so sure go um oh i was gonna let her not tell him this is what i do this is my right you do your bread and butter is embarrassing myself um like a year ago i still have scars um where um my wrist you see that sort of like red right there
Starting point is 00:41:06 and my knuckles and then um an elbow pat yeah she's pointing to her elbow um this radio right there and there um so okay so i'm going down a hill on alberta and like kind of by broadway and my cell phone rings yep and you took you took it. And I go look at it and I'm like, oh, it's my friend Daniel. I don't care because I was waiting to hear from my agent because I was like,
Starting point is 00:41:29 oh, I'm going to get a part. You're going to make it. I'm going to make it. I'm going to be starting. But I'm down the hill and my jacket's flapping so I can't put it in my pocket. Flap a jacket.
Starting point is 00:41:37 And then the light turns and so I break with one hand because my cell phone's in one. Oh, yeah, yeah. Because that works. That's how bikes work. So I flip over my handlebars, not wearing a helmet, because I didn't want to wreck my hair and be a hipster.
Starting point is 00:41:51 It's funny, because I'd written in some magazine that not wearing your helmet because you're a hipster is retarded. Right. What I do the next week. And so flipping over my handlebars, everything goes black. I land on my face. Are you guys playing footsies? Not yet. We're waving at each other with our feet.
Starting point is 00:42:08 Don't let us derail you. So pretty much I've scraped my arms, my legs, my knees. Did you break anything? No, I didn't break anything. Nice, look at you. My knees are real. I think I bruised my bones. I went for x-rays. Oh, nice.
Starting point is 00:42:22 How do you bruise a bone? I've bruised a bone. Alright, well, don't brag. And then they're like, here's some Tylenol 3s. And I took one and fell asleep. Yeah, they're awesome. Can this episode be brought to you by Tylenol 3? I think this episode should be brought to you by May, because it's

Starting point is 00:44:41 It's not just... Can you taste the difference? No. You can taste the organs? But I like that this one has a government warning on it. None of our beer has a government warning on it. What's the warning? It says,
Starting point is 00:44:51 one, according to the Surgeon General, I always like that they bring in the Surgeon General as if just saying it doesn't have enough gravity. Because you wouldn't trust it any other way. According to the Surgeon General, and the only Surgeon General I know is C. Everett Koop, when he was in the 80s, I think. Koop Koopa Doop.
Starting point is 00:45:09 From the Salt and Pepper Song. Women should not drink alcoholic beverages during pregnancy because of the risk of birth defects. Fair enough. Two, consumption of alcoholic beverages impairs your ability to drive a car or operate machinery and may cause health problems.
Starting point is 00:45:26 Or a podcast. That's a nice way to put driving your car into a pole. So he had some health problems. Doug died.
Starting point is 00:45:37 He had health problems. Coop warned him. See every Coop. Warned him. See every Coop. Remember that show? Yeah. That was weird.
Starting point is 00:45:44 I've got a couple more overheards. Did you do any? Did you do one yet? No, I haven'top. Remember that show? Yeah. That was weird. I've got a couple more overheards. Did you do any? Did you do one yet? No, I haven't done one. Oh, do you want to do one? Okay, yeah, I'll do one. I was on my way out to Laugh Lines last Friday night. And we might actually...
Starting point is 00:45:59 Because the thing that was great about it was because there was this girl on the bus that was... The way that she sat – Did you get the bus to New West? Oh, sorry, train. Okay. Yeah. I was like, whoa. What was I talking about?
Starting point is 00:46:11 There was a gal came on the train, and she had the same kind of posture and breathing situation as Napoleon Dynamite, but she was a girl. And she sat like – she just totally sat like this. Like if we can maybe get a picture so people have a reference. But like, really, like the tired C, right? Like the head as far down to the chest as is possible. Yeah, that sound. And she's on the phone with her cell phone,
Starting point is 00:46:39 and she's saying, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Well. Yeah. Yeah. Well, okay. If I have to make a decision between makeup and money, I'm going to go with the money. But it was about four stops until we got to that. You know what I think was happening was her agent was saying, they'll either give you some makeup or actrophies.
Starting point is 00:47:09 The auditions in a hotel room. Yeah. Yeah. I have another overheard. Yesterday, I was walking my dog on 14th Avenue, east of Maine. One block east of Maine. And there was a guy, about 30, practicing his skateboard skills. One of my favorite things to see. He'll land one of those tricks one of these days,
Starting point is 00:47:34 skateboard kids. At 5 o'clock at night when it's rush hour and people are picking up groceries and stuff and need to get home. Not practicing their skateboard moves. And as a 30 year old man you're probably too old to be doing this and take up the entire street so i kind of gave him the evil eye uh but i didn't want to fight him about it so i pretended the sun
Starting point is 00:47:56 was in my eyes so it's like you're giving the evil eye to this guy yeah i gave him the evil eye for uh a second and then looked away real sunny uh but uh someone else apparently gave him the evil eye and was driving by really slowly and uh this guy was staring at them and he uh he confronted them well he didn't really confront them but he yelled hey want to fucking make out classy you know it was my favorite uh slogan back in the day was skateboarding is not a crime yeah remember that yeah but it was so what that's a crazy slogan to just like come up with they just you know yes it is punching my wife is not a crime you just wear a sticker that says that and then all of a sudden it's a thing it was in certain areas it was illegal to do it but you can't just say no it's not
Starting point is 00:48:52 and make a sweater and then just wear it and be like yeah fucking pig look at my sweater I just declared it not to be a crime they like to be called pigs who? I don't know I'm not going to say it a lot of cops listen to this on the radio pigs, I think. Who? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:49:06 I'm not going to say it. A lot of people listen to us on the radio. The CB. We do get picked up on the CB channels. I have a friend now who's a cop. Really? What's that like? Weird. He's
Starting point is 00:49:22 an actor that I know. So he's not really a cop. He's training for the Vincis. He's an actor that i know and so he's not really well he's training he was an actor and then um i don't know whatever one day i see him on the street and he's like hey oh let me show you my new job and he's like getting out his wallet i'm like oh he's got business cards or something like wow he's all official and it's a badge nice yeah i was. So he's with the VP. Yep. Wow. He was sort of in training
Starting point is 00:49:47 but I think now he's riding around in cars and whatever you do. That's crazy. He's like six foot six or seven. I don't think that's the qualification.
Starting point is 00:49:55 Pretty much. You know you're like you're big. That's a high tower. And intimidating. You're a cop. Yeah. Strange thing for
Starting point is 00:50:02 what a change to be an actor. Did you ask him if Police Academy is anything like the movie Police Academy? Not yet. Did he go to an actual police academy? Has he seen the movie Police Academy? That's the big question. Who hasn't? A lot of people. I think... I've seen maybe the sequels. I don't know that I've ever seen... Oh, I think I have seen the one. The beginning one. When they go to the gay bar.
Starting point is 00:50:25 Yeah, the Blue Oyster. Yeah. That's the thing, is that... You guys have seen it multiple times. I know the theme song from the Blue Oyster. It's the Police Academy theme song. The thing is, I think there will be a whole generation of peeps coming up really quick that have never seen Police Academy.
Starting point is 00:50:45 Oh, yeah. And then when they're hassling you for skateboarding, you'll make a reference. I'll go, Proctor! And they won't know what that means at all. And they'll just kick you to the curb. Do we have any more overheards? No. No.
Starting point is 00:51:08 Well, last night, the woman who was giving us tickets to the play we saw was on the phone kind of ignoring us while we did it. And it kind of seemed like we were the hassle for buying tickets. But she was on the phone, and then some more people came up in line behind me, so she decided she had to get off the phone. And she said, the person obviously had said something to her. And she said, may the creator be with you too. Wow. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:30 Wow. That's a hard one to deflect when somebody, I don't like when I'm in casual conversation. Have you ever had that happen? Where you're in casual conversation with somebody and then they just drop the R-bomb, I like to call it, religion. Yeah. Just out of nowhere. But we're talking about, wouldn't it be great if you could get Dr. Pepper mixed with 7-Up? up the the r-bomb i like to call religion yeah uh just out of nowhere where like but like you're
Starting point is 00:51:45 just we're talking about you know wouldn't it be great if you could get dr pepper mixed with seven up yeah right whatever and then like just out of nowhere they're like if god would be willing and you're like oh shit like i was just talking about a big gulp yeah and like but everything like takes a weird left turn and then everything's difficult i had a friend who was um born again well she started dating this guy and then he was religious so of course she became born again and we're out for coffee one day they were doing it all the time and that's how she was born again she was weird it's a lot of science of all yeah well and she was like well you know now that um i've been saved by jesus christ our lord and Savior, I'm really like, whoa,
Starting point is 00:52:25 back it up. That's a long business card, too. Now that I've been saved by J.C.R.L.N.S., I'm really looking into owning property. And she just dropped that in? She just dropped that, and we're like, okay. Was it weird between you and her from then on in? She just dropped that and we're like, okay. Was it weird between you and her from then on in?
Starting point is 00:52:50 Only when she started popping out babies and going to church. They're the worst. Yeah. No, I was like, I'm open and accepting of this. But yeah, pretty much it was a what? My dad knew a guy in Alberta who, you know, like the- Wild Rose Country. Yeah, seriously, it is. Yeah, it is.
Starting point is 00:53:07 That's the license plate. How many wild roses did you see when you were there? You couldn't even leave your house for wild roses piled up in front of your door. They were... They're a nuisance. How do you pick a slogan for a province? Because beautiful British Columbia. Okay, we get it.
Starting point is 00:53:24 It's pretty. I get it. You got pretty. I get it. You got the mountains and the ocean. Wild Rose Country doesn't even fit with Alberta. It should be go fuck yourself or we got money or something like that. Like Texas smaller or something like that.
Starting point is 00:53:40 Saskatchewan. Alberta, fuck yeah. Fuck yeah. What's Saskatchewan's? I don't know. Friendly Manitoba. Friendly Manitoba. Ontario, yours to discover. Quebec, je m'assume.
Starting point is 00:53:54 Maritimes. We're doomed. Check it out sometime. Yukon, what? Northwest Territories. No, the Yukon's shaped like a bear. Was in the 70s.
Starting point is 00:54:07 And their slogan is... We got bears. Yes. It's a grizzly proposition. Did you like that movie, The Bear? That would be a long one to put it. What's the other one? None of it.
Starting point is 00:54:21 No, half of the country doesn't know. We're new. We just got here. It's our first day. So what is Saskatchewan? They're your neighbor. What was Saskatchewan? I have no idea.
Starting point is 00:54:35 Is it Big Sky? Flat and boring. Big Sky, maybe? No, that's Montana, I think. Don't know. It's green. We don't know what Saskatchewan is. We don't.
Starting point is 00:54:46 That's the one thing that we can take away from this podcast. Hey, we'll probably put it on the blog. Why not? I have nothing else. All right, well, do you want to move on to some celebrity odds? Yeah, okay. Let's do it. Celebrity, Celebrity Odds.
Starting point is 00:55:09 Do you have any? I actually have one submitted by a listener. Really? Yeah. Oh, that's way more fun than what I have. All right. Celebrity Odd, submitted by Abby's aunt, Sheila. This is already good. This is already my favorite she's not your typical aunt no i've heard a lot about her abby talks about her in a great detail uh sounds like a great but she's she's an avid listener and and has told us or told me as much
Starting point is 00:55:38 and uh we appreciate that i appreciate you abby's aunt. Sheila, thanks for listening. Here's her celebrity odd. What are the odds? Do you know who Bai Ling is? Yes. Some porn girl? She got busted for shoplifting. I don't know, but she's an Asian actress who is a terrible dresser. She was busted for shoplifting somewhere. Check it out. All right.
Starting point is 00:56:07 She was in the Lost episode about Jack's tattoos. Nobody? Nobody. No. Don't know. Never seen Lost. And, okay. Sheila has sent in these celebrity odds that Bai Ling will star in a remake of Jake and the Fat Man
Starting point is 00:56:25 with Cameron Manheim. Whoa! So she would be... And? And it will be called Bai and Large. I don't know what the odds are on it, but I hope
Starting point is 00:56:43 for humanity's sake it comes to fruition. That's really good, by and large. I like it. What do you think? What do you think the odds are? One in 100. Yeah, I don't think either of them can support a TV show. I thought it was a movie.
Starting point is 00:56:59 Or it was going to be remade into a TV show. Jake and the Fat Man was a TV show. I know, but you could make it into a movie. What am I, Hollywood? They're making all TV shows into movies now. Or vice versa. I can't think of any examples.
Starting point is 00:57:11 Miami Vice. Right. Yeah. That's one. That was, did you see it? No. No.
Starting point is 00:57:18 Maybe there. I saw it. Did you? Yeah, but I wasn't familiar with the TV show and the movie was terrible. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:57:24 the TV show was terrible. It was of its day. There's no need to remake that as a thing. Teen Wolf, on the other hand. Yeah. What's up? Who dropped the ball on that? Why haven't they remade that yet?
Starting point is 00:57:38 Why haven't they approached Zac Efron with Teen Wolf? That is the role he was born to play. Here we go. I'll try a celebrity out. Alright, here we go. In the new Sex and the City movie, Ken Cottrell's character will talk about sex really loud in a cafe.
Starting point is 00:57:58 What do you think? A one in one. Really? Wow, even odds. Okay. We can go back and forth on these. I didn't know you had more than one. I've got several. The expression lo-fi I like it so far.
Starting point is 00:58:14 will become very popular when it is adopted as Lawrence Fishburne's new nickname. Oh yeah. I give that a 25 to 27.'s an odd all right i'll throw it down um i really none of mine are um that great oh really because usually they'd knock me out that there was one that made you laugh really hard.
Starting point is 00:58:46 And only one. I don't have anything. I got one more. Really? You fucking loaded up. So these are really, this is your week to share. All right. Well, I wouldn't call it that
Starting point is 00:58:55 given how you gave no reaction to my Lawrence Fishburne one. I didn't. It was an internal thing. It's not seen on radio. I felt good about it. I don't need your pity applause. Oh, I have another one about
Starting point is 00:59:09 Kim Cattrall. Why did I get so stuck on her? I don't know. Do you want to give it to me? Kim Cattrall will come out with a line of perfume called Slut. 25 to 27. See? You just did that. It didn't matter how hilarious it would have been.
Starting point is 00:59:25 You would have done that anyways. Just to be a jerkass. I'm a consummate co-host. Here's one. Huey Lewis and the News will reunite but only do bar mitzvah
Starting point is 00:59:41 performances as Jewy Jewish and the Jews. I don't know what the odds are, but I will be saying a little prayer tonight. God bless. Back at you. How are we doing on time? Oh, we're fresh out.

Starting point is 01:00:51 I'm going to run. That was tough. Do you want to read about the band? So, Pop Rocks originally got together in 1998 to perform a benefit show called One Night Stand, which was supposed to be a one-off gig. After the band received requests for additional shows and a write-up in the local paper, they decided to put together a real band of pranksters to incite bacon. Pranksters.
Starting point is 01:01:20 Original members Bobby Baze, vocals... Ew, don't chew these things things It's not a good idea Nikki Licky Six And Pinky Saint August Were later joined by Taylor Tame and Ruby Riot To complete the lineup Drawing on Bad Edie's attire And a tribute to drinking

Starting point is 01:02:14 if you had braces and you were wearing Pop Rocks or not wearing Pop Rocks, imagine if you could wear Pop Rocks. On a rainy day, it would be a lot of trouble. I'm going to make Pop Rocks jewelry. That if you ate Pop Rocks with braces, that it would make a... Ting, ting, ting, ting. Kind of sound.
Starting point is 01:02:32 So anybody out there that has braces or knows somebody with braces who wants to either prove or dispute that fact, be my guest. This has been... I've had a lot of fun today. It's been a pleasure. Do you, Sarah Bino? Did I pronounce that right? You did.
