I have heard that from musician friends who like in the at a certain time were like, o, maybe we'll try to make it in the States and like had agents and were in negotiations with different record company things and like, oh, what producers would you work with? And they had like a list. And if you want to work with Rick Rubin, you need like a hundred songs. like Oh wow. his job is to just be like, I like these ten.

What are the of the top ten dog. What are the top what's the thing you would improve this used to improve this setity city And you also, you studied city planantning. I did. I studied sea noss I went got my urban planning, urban , I can't even remember. Yeahah. in twenty twenty, graduated class of twenty twenty. Oh COVID. Yeah. So that final semester, COVID had started, my thesis project compleplete garbage. I'm very surprised I got through but you know, they gave everybody a pass. Yeah That year everybody gets up Yeah. Does anyone have any questions about that at all? It's like if you're in university and your roommate commits suicide anyway.'s on all your any of your dogs. Yeah. H here's my answer to my own question. Okay. G. if you carry an umbrella under an awning Imediate hiring. Yeah, those are the rules People walk on any side of the sidewalk they want to these days. This This is the thing Ive noticice when I go to another city, everybody seems to be able to understand the right and left conundrum of walking. And then like people coming, people going. And then it comes to Vancouver and it's like S scatattershot. Like peopleople are just all over the world. Let's walk ive in a row. armed link side and side. U Do you think it should be always on the right side Unl you have unless you have an umbrella, you don't have an umbrella. And that's why my friends, you need to remember this simple rhyme. No for it? Yeah When on the left Umbrella is best when on the right. That is a very simple run. Yes under the light, It's not really related to the rain. It has to be raining. Yeah. Yeah, but when you have an umbrella in this city and I assume other cities and you're going where the awning is on your right hand side, you go to the left. so people that didn't have the foresight to purchase or find an umbrella can walk under the awning. That's a good call Well here's in them cumbersome Yeah, Brale is yeah. Yeah The there's what about when it's construction the little pathway that construction m. Oh yeah, construction through the pathway. Yeah. like check out these gas wways.'s my It's like you remember it? Yeah. It's a simple rhyme from the sea. If somebody's coming through it, do you just stand on the side or do you make squeeze? Well for three alphas like ourselves, I assume we just push through as fast as possible When they announce this little Canadian elbows up thing, I'm like, I'm always elbows up anyway because That's how I go through life. That's how to get people up from under and on. hereere's my new thing that annoys me about walking through this city. is cyclists on the sidewalk Yeah where they're not allowed, but they're like a real cyclist who Cycles on the street. by then like, oh, I'm only going half a block on the sidewalk. so I'll just cycle on the sidewalk dismount. Yeahep. And also don't you dare bring that speedy scooter up on the sidewalk? That is you mean e cloud bikes, the delivery bikes? Yeah, Ol scooter. Right. Yeah. I've got a great my overseing involves one of those. I can't wait to share it later in the show shouldh we get to Noah? Yes. get to Noah's Bnt Yeah. you' re Brent Thanks so much for asking.

The technology, the advancement in non dairy milks has just, you know, it's exceeded anyways's So is yogura the best non dairy yogurt? It' actually it's quite heavy and fat.

A premi vegie. can get at your choices, at your nesters Now if you have something that's lactose removed, is that okay No, no,'s you're not allergic. right? Yeah. Yeah. It's a personal choice that I made. Yeah How long you been a vegan for fifteen years? Yeah. twenty away before. Way before this way before COVID. This was back when you only drink soy milk. And now nowadays soy milk goes for like two dollars a quart because they know it's garbage. what do you do? Do you oat Yeah like I like oat. I like oat.

No, I guess I was going to ask what are the now top ten maybe top five milk alternatives these days. likeike if soy used to be number one and it's now at the bottom of the list. It's at the top. I'd say it's a top. o's a rich creamy glass that because you're Allergic to Dairy No, I just don't drink it. Oh okay. But do you drink oat milk? You like oat milk? I will go oat milk. I will go soy milk. Okay. either to me are equal in the equation. And there's cashew, almond. Ooh, pricey, right? Rice milk? Oh Rice milk And I assume a variety of others that I've never experienced. Seems like you could make milk at pretty much any. Well, if you crush it up does it turn white? Well, you got yourself a milk Another good day at the milk lab, booy. supporting those Canadian rock farmers.. Oh there's a cow's milk. Oh no, we're not having dairy.

Do you go do you fuck around with cashew cheese or anything like that? Yeah, I fuck around with it a little bit. Yeah. There's Cash you, cash me outside How about that prrotesting this store Uh Yeah, it' it's okay. Yeah. Yeah. It's not great. I mean, it's sort of like a waxy cube U some of it melts a bit better. than others. some of it, you're just eating a smaller cube. Yeah. I see you driving around downown in a waxy cube and I'm like Cashew He wasn't listening anything you're say. heard Iice. That was the radio editor. And Rick Rubin's like, Okaykay, what are the other ninety nine The u I went to a place called And it doesn't advertise itself as it's just called virtuous Pie, which I just walked into to get a pizza And then I got the pizza and I ate a part of the pizza and it had cashew cheese on it. and I had a massive allergic reaction. Oh. But they don't say anywhere, you just would intuitively have to know that Was it good No, it was like, what is wrong with this pizza? Like two bites and it was like something is off. This pizza sucks. The best vegan pizza I ever had was at Barbarellaly that it was on Frasier. I don't know if it's still there. It's gone. And RIP. And it came out. it was so good. It was like vegan. cheese and pepperoni and I ate like three slices and I said to the server. I was like, this is the best vegan pizza I've ever had And he said Oh, sorry about that. This was just a regular pizza. No. Yeahah. so. Yeah it was so good Sorry about that. See our method is that we just makeake it with regular cheese. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Our secret, we do things a little differently at this vegan pizza house And That's great. If I was him, I would have been like, Hey, thanks man. It's a shame we're not gonna to have it on the menu anymore after tonight. We'll see y. Yeah Okay well wereere they apologetic about it or were they just like wink? Yeah they said they said, you know, sorry about that. And I said, you know what? Hey, no harm done, I guess. Yeah. I enjoyed my meal up to this point. Yeah. There's another vegan there is a vegan pizza place that's on Kings'sway called Vegan Pizza House And when I moved here like years ago. It was one of the only places. So they had stuff that you couldn't get anywhere else and still can't for good reason, like vegan shrimp o on Which I've never seen cashew It's just a little cashew painted. Yeah. It's shrimp. Do you like it? It's a chewy pizza. And I was the only person that was ever there. And I remember one time I had like a bunch of slices and each slice had like a hair that was larger than the last. Oh Oh that's kind of a reverse Beloxes And I kept ha I kept bringing up and I was like, this one has hair in it too. And you'd give me a fresh one. And then it was a larger piece of hair. And I wasn't even upset. I was sort of just like What are the chances of this? I think they should do a place where the hairs get smaller until you get to a pube The smallest hair possible. Is it a bad sign when you go to a restaurant and they're like, you're our greatest customer. And you're like, takeake any seat you want Wh this is my first time in here? Yes, congratulations. Even Coca Cola here is vegan. Stuff like that. At the place I lived in Edmonton when I was, you know, not to brag doing my master's during COVID. White A? It was on White A. yeah.

Every time we play Evmonton, they put us in a smaller and smaller place. It was there was like a bunch of boardroom conference tables in front of you. It was downtown right next to the bus depepot. Yeah. you remember that one? Was that the one in the like Freemason's hall It wasn't a hall. It definitely wasn't a hall. Oh, was it in that a standing room only. Yeah. okay. That was like a they have a word for those kinds of things. It's like a downtown club or whatever It's a community center? No, it was just like a room that like people can Yeah rent out. Yeah. and someone had As someone had as part of a festival. Yeah. Yeah, I was there. I was there I wasn't forget. There was no seat for me. I stood in the bed. I was dining room only because there was like a couch that is usually for like at risk children to give birth on or whatever. Yeah, it was really inconvenient for them to go outside. te. Well the children being born were then very at risk, I assume. Yeah.' I just know that we did the basement of a church or was that a Mason. So we did we did the impropagandza like ye improv place. Yeah. Yeah And then we did CK U A And then we did the downstairs of like whatever, the Mason's Hall with Jonathan Richmond playing above us and everybody going fucking nut. Could you guys keep it down You you guys brought the broomstick And us being like, is there like any kind of stage lighting? No, there's just one light for the whole room. And we might need it later during the show. Yeah. He needs a bit more light upstairs Turn off the lights And then and I should have just excused ourselves and let up and watched around of the richmond. And I think it the one after that was the one And was it the last one? Yeah. ye. That was the last live show we've done.ally twenty twenty two, maybe Oh yeah. ye ye, Wow. Holy shit, timee Hey guys asseshers some might say. And speaking of shows, you put on a lot of shows there. Yeah tellell us all about Oh man. Yeah, let me start at the beginning, guys. what. This is coming out. I've been told M May eighteenth or nineteenth and you can edit in which one was correct. This is coming out may eighteenth. Here's another take. This is coming out may nineteenth And this weekend, may twenty second to twenty third, it's our annual event. Graham Clark's twenty four hours a stand up marathon show. Graham Clark, you may know him from the podcast. He's going to be on stage for twenty four hours performing stand up comedy as well as, you know, some other stuff he's been working on throughout the last That's right. Yeah, how many years have you done this? This is for me, your five. for littleittle Mount Gallery involvement four four number four. Yeah. And this is the third time in the location in the new place third of that, then fourth of the other and then five total and Yeah if you're keeping track, which you shouldn't be, the wiki only shows the four.. This is yeah, this is the third year we've done it at Water Street and Last year was really fun. Yeah. Yeah. L easiest for some reason. That's what you said, yeah. because I remember the year before I mean, a fatter now. Y fav were fatter. That was it. That's true. I had a gigantic rabit. You had those big little elephant feet, big little elephant But d d d are you so Is this like the biggest show littleittle Mountain does all year? Hey, unfortunately it is. Yeah. what's second place We had a lot of kill Tony guys in this last year. Yeah. And it's a big show because they only have a minute each So they're waiting outside Everybody's led, they go in for one minute. out they go. Yeah, and they're so used to doing their jokes and then looking to the left, you know, they don't know what else to do. They look to the left. Is the left is where the hosts are? Yeah, ironically. I've never watched even though these things are a minute long. I've never watched a second. It's I know what they are. Fascinating It is a fascinating show. I When I start watching it, I can't stop watching it because it it's the modern equivalent of Johnny calling you over to the panel. Yeah It's like a gong show, right Except a lot's kind of ier Everybody gets their full minute unless they bail. Okay. So no matter how bad you're bombing. and this is just one minute. Yeah. S people come up. they've never done standu before and they think they can tough it out for a minute There's people who weren't they're drunk. they came to the holding pan or whatever. It just smashed It's fascinating. And it's a holding pen? It's a holding It's a pen. And is it like a weekly show? It's I think they do it every day. I don't know. I don't know if it's a weekly. How many people are on? How long is an episode? Has anytone watched a whole episode? It's something. It's like an hour in And but it's Like I'm gu I' go on Guys only, yeah, I'm pretty sure. But like I do feel now this is like a stupid person talking about like, well, come on saay for a minute. But like me being like and we open the door of the pen whoever runs out the fat for a. I'm talking about a very popular thing and I'm like, o okay, well I kind of imagined it one way. so like And I think your audience has a lot of crossover with the Kill Tony audience. I feel like they probably would have watched one. Yeah.'s the other thing is there's Aea so it's killed Tony himself and then a bunch of other comedians and they weigh in whenever they want. they kind of as they weigh in during the guys set. No like there' no hackling during their set. They're allowed to just have that one clean minute. They get a minute and then it's reaction time. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. I think that's bullet time. Yes, buullllet time. And if it's somebody D is doing the Matrix bullet, Dck not gonna U then yeah, then they kind of rip them apart. I also think I don't think I've really seen too much of it. I know that a bunch of people that few people from Vancouver have been on this show. Yeah and it's made their They're now the biggest guy Yeah they get up in the first half of any open break that they want to. I think That's the prize. That's what everybody's shooting for. beforefore the audience gets tired and their friend who lost the fantasy football bet goes on stage. And we lose the whole audience. You know, the purest form of comedy. What's the weirdest and it will go around the horn. What's the weirdest thing that you saw at an open mic I mean, outside of just like the, uh sort of the the hate speech Yeah Yeah sort It's sort of like there's there's different levels to that too. What I always find interesting is when someomeone's point of view, like they aren't trying to be edgy and they don't understand why what they're saying is like hateful to any group. They're just like This is just how I see the world. Don't you guys understand? I'm going down the street and I'm thinking this guy wants to suck my dick real bad. This fucking guy wants to suck my dick. not as bad as the other guy. I'm just trying to buy my cashew cheese and shrimps and everybody wants to suck my dick and everyone's in the audience. It's like it's not even that it's bad, it's just sort of Okay, I'd say like sometimes the u theme like sometimes someone will come up like in costume or something and you'll be like, this is either going to be really good. It never is or it's going be like Okay, this guy only appears at Halloween and he does every show in town. And you know, he's been saving up these Halloween jokes I'm not talking about any was specific, but it's just sounds something Well, there's an Easter guy. There's a Christmas guy. There's a St.t Patrick's guy, Mother's Day, The Mother' Day comedian, like How become everybody's mom was is so my dear. This guy gets what we're thinking. He dresses up like a my mom, you know he comes down. This is confusing. Yeah. were they moms? or you mom? We're all moms. We were all moms the whole time. Oh But I don't, o, you know what? actuallyually somebody I think the one that's the most kind of upsetting is when they come and try and like performance art to like mess with an audience that's just there to see their fantasy football friends. Yeah, honestly, most Open my audiences didid not know there was comedy happening tonight. Yes. They thought there would be something on the big TV. Yeah. They come in, they're on their first date. then suddenly, twenty minutes in, all the TV's turned off. A milk crate gets pushed into one of the corners of the room. If you're lucky if you have that, a lot of times you're just standing on the floor that everybody else seems to be on. The milk bottle. All right, mother, if I got turn off your phone. The oat milk crate. And there was one time someone took off their pants and then injected themselves with a with a needle. Whatotted it part of themselves? Leg Okay. Yeah. So their pants came fully off. And I think everyone and they were just doing it to be like C Can you guys believe this is happening? And we're like, yeah, we believe it. Yeah yeah. we're saying We gotta see Halloween M. He's up right back. Yeah. I'm diabetes man. I'm showing you how I take my daily inul. And Halloween man nobody wants to follow that guy, that guy he's the best. Put my Halloween costume away, those skeletons are back in my crade The one that sticks out to me was it's not it was a guy who He told me he had done standup a few times, but I was on a hero show, which is a show where you do a character or you is one a one person sketch show and he I can't' he seems like a really sweet guy. so I don't want to say any specifics It's a sweetheart of a boy, but he Like, you know, went up on stage Immediately like laid down it was a four hundred and twenty show. was the thing It laid down the idea of like, here's what my concept is. and what if this person did this and it would sound like this and then he sings the little song. Oh it's so unexpected. gets no reaction. The audience is completely numb to him Wells it's a long show at the But. And this is like two minutes of him getting no reaction. And then you realize, oh, this is a Long bit and we just saw act one, but there will be more examples of different the same song, but with different words put in And Avy and I wrote the song What was the song? I don't want to say any specifics. I don't know was that cashew song that h did it earlyer. Yeah. Yeah. the weirdest one that I saw was a guy got on stage. he told twoo jokes and then the rest of his set was putting up lectn that like the press secretary of the United States would stand behind. And a like a desk and then there were puppets And one of the puppets was like Monica Lewinsky. This was in two thousand or three. One of the puppets was Monica Pinsky. And this is good gig for her. She doesn't give the drink. He we learned so much from that PM t drink Anyways, then the puppet. is giving him a blow job. That's what the pup would. All these puppets wantna suck my dick. It was the street you were walking down. S something? It was. Yeahah Oh Oh man, what was the other When we first reopen here for the open mic? We the open mic just naturally attracts likeike a lot of people And a lot of performers? A lot of performers loosely No, not audience. Yeah. God knows, it's not an audience But then there's a certain side of like certain type of older man Who loves going to the open light. like they and they all sort of wear The same like Fedora or felt hat There was a man who was showing up very early on and we still have he would bring small rubber chickens with his name written. This is good in felt pen and give them to people. You need merch. and We have a bunch of those Yeah, it waser it was sort of a business merch thing. It was just his name though. So how to get in touch with him was unclear. You just had to show up to the next show. And So for a long time, we would just have all of these felt hats that these men would come. and they had A lot of similar material. It was Check out what's under here. Yeah. Check out this brand.w.ith. My ex wife says this hat looks stupid. Do you disagree? I'm gonna to pull my pants, put the hat over my car. That's I'm jing myself with a rubber trgger. All right, I'll see you guys at Halloween. Good night, That a spooky Christmas Oops All right, I'm throwing my hat out to the audience So there's this guy, Fedora man that that comes all the time. I mean they Well they will they don't really anymore because I think that they sort of got that out of their system. likeike they've been building it up. But they do a lot of similar material and it's not like I'm not trying to you know, be a little blue with this, but they come from an age where I believe that going down on a woman was like an edgy thing. And so they all get up on stage. That's true this guy didn't haveck he didn't suck Monica Lewinsky'. Yeah, He only gonna win the why. And the women back then would be like, Damn this guy's edgy. You look down, it's just the hat moving up and down. And so they always like that's their material as they go up on stage and they are saying this stuff as if it's like going to shock you. But it's more just You're learning about this man's sexual desires Yeah. and then he and then that's it. and it's three minutes later. and And sort of it's an open call at that point. That's how going down on a woman is. It's That's it and it's three minutes later. Then you leave your halfhind and your rubber chicken it's like just my name, Bibe. I do feel like the rubber chicken with the name on it is very much the way that like Boomers would tell, you drank that water so fast. Yeah. He's perched Boomers would tell younger generations like, o just You want a job, you have to have a good handshake And you just go in and talk to the boss and tell them you're Yeah Exactly. I'm telling writers, you're available to work and he'll hire you. Just go in, leave a few of your hats stuffed behind the plants. and you have to go back in to pick them up. Just give them a rubber chicken with your name on it. It's like, guys do you guys mind if I do a tight three of my resume real? Yeah yeah, let's everybody gather around. Do you have any friends that want to come out and watch you do this? I lost a couple of bets so I had to come down to the I actually play it. My last job I got with a resume was twenty ten Wow.

Did you ever deal with um L any of those guys that sort of wait for the boxes to be open, like the hot wheels guys or the Pokemon was that a thing back then? Yeah I don't know if that was. Oh no, it definitely was during the Christmas season because everybody wanted this ne Lego thing. Okay. It would like they couldn't keep it in stock. So people were lining up for whatever that was not my part of this d. the microscope area. those microscope kids waiting outside. limit of three. My resale value. This one comes with a peetri dish. Inject yourself in the leg. Yeah My friend worked I think at Twysor Rus and it was hot wheels guys and there was a limit of how many hot wheels they could get. Yeah. And so they'd come in and I guess to stop the other hot wheels guys, they would get their limit and then destroy the other hot wheels boxes. Oh really? had resale resale value because they're not mint anymore Yeah I thought you were going to say to just what did you say? What did I say? Well, you thought it was funny. I foil Yeahah, to foil the other hot wheels guys, they put a bunch of micr machines on the ground and they slip. Wha. Um yeah, the every other aisle Boxes askew, different things, but my Christ Yeah. kids aren't going and the only kids going through there are little young Sheldons and before it was cool. Yeah Now young Sheldon, just so you know, you know what storeory So I watched the full Young Sheldon. Okay, with my family. How many how many seasons is it? I want to say it was seven or eight. Oh wow. It was big by the end. And is it a tradition like are they still doing twenty two episode seasons? This was one I feel like It was COVID like truncated. So a few of the seasons were like thirteen episodes generenally around twenty. But the episodes themselves were under twenty minutes. Nice. Yes. We were a nineteen and a half minute episode. to the point where my kids were like, canan we watch three tonight? Well if you're good yeah. My little Sheldons.. And so a little bit of Sheldon trivia, his favorite store He's growing up in the eighties and nineties. He's basically our age Yeah. So what do you think? This little nerd boy's favorite store. This is a radio shack. Yeah, radioack. H to be radio shhack. And what is a thing he says when he's making a joke Be Baboo And he says it nonstop until they hang up Yeah, that never really was a thing in Canada, I don't think. It was big in the states B It was a Howard Stern? Yeah How would people listen to Howard Stern in Canada? We wouldn't R rate it. We only had our The OFMs Yeah. they ninety He was banned Yeah he was bn. Was he? Yeah, because on his first episode I don't know he slammed somebody. Someone made a complaint to the Canadian Broadcast Standards Council and they investigated every complaint and they made a ruling and they decided to determine that he was not He was not Canada style. Yeah, I feel like the same thing happened with Power Rangers Oh the big two. Who did they talk sh about? When I was a kid, nothing was cooler than Howard Stern and Power Rangers. We'd have to argue about who we wanted to be on the playgrounds. I'm Red Ranger and you are Babby. Yeah. You're Howard Stern and you are a stripper that's on the air with Howard Stern. And this is the episode where they kissed I want to be the kiss. He's he makes, I think he seems tame compared to what in today's modern world? Yeah. Cpared to a lot of these open micics So you're running the show. It's called Graham Clark's twenty four hours of comedy. It starts six PM eight P eight PM. Yeah and so they' pushed to get to after Yeah after work. Yeah. Yeah. there's an open mike before. So that's you want to get there about six, you know, quarter six actually. if you want to make a if you want to make it for the open mike. Yeah. And so put on your best hat. So people in Vancouver can come and see it and and you You don't need to stay for the full twenty four hours. How does that work? People show up and be like, I'm gonna to be here for an hour. Yeah, I'm so glad you asked about this. So the show starts at d. We do chunks a time, seventy five minutes. so you can buy tickets in seventy five minute chunks, which is what we call them. And then there's Gams on stage Uh the whole time and then we've got teams of eightight to ten comics every ro time That's right the whole time Every two hours they switch and they're all writing jokes for Graham to read on stage. Yeah. And it's very fun. Everyone has a really good time. It's a very fun event jokes that like if he tells a joke once Yeah and he he reads a joke, that someone writes he puts it in puts it in the pile of youatch it up and throw it away. The no kernels from that joke will appear in other jokes throughout the show. That's where you're wrong. That's where you're wrong, Dave. So we go we go a little crazy. time goes' a little different. This last year we did awards for the best joke. rightight Every hour every two hours and reading them back, most of them are just inside jokes from their they're awful to read back. Yeah. That's a little time capsule of what we were going through at the time. Yeah, what do you have any specifics because I know during my two hours last time, there were a lot of jokes about big naturals there was some kind of factory. Was it like a dog poo factory or something We have the best open Might comedians performing on the show. Graham insists on it actually. Better comedians ask if they can do it. No, no, no, no. No this is staging Graam. This is for me and my boys. He just he rips off. It's a sort of a kill tony for Graham. Yeah. And what percentage so there's likeike, you know, eight comedians an hour, whatever, ten comedians an hour. writing constantly. Yeah, putting jokes in in a ball for you to pull out What percentage of those jokes do you not read? Because you're like, this is Very low. Yeah, very low. There was the first year. Sbody a couple of people wrote things and I was like, this is I'm not saying this. I'm surprised you were writing it, but I'm definitely not going to say it U but it's low. It's surprisingly low actually H You know, the problem is the thing goes on is that people's handwriting sometimes Another time I don't knowet it's I'll read some of the award winning jokes. And you tell me. And just remember, Graham will be reading these jokes. Yeah not friend Yeah. so the way I deliver it, it's not going to be funny. But when Graham did it on stage It's great. It one best of the hour. This is best of two hours. Yeah. So this is a joke. so Pometries Oh That was my session of I didn't write this one. I couldn't. And this is where we're talking about those trees that do the fallers Yeah right. They smell like c So a lot of people were triggered in a fun way about this by triggered, I don't mean the traditional way. I mean that inspired them. Yeah. You know when you readygg. Yes. Thankk you very much Cum trees are planted by the city as part of Ken Sims plan to fuck Vancouver.n't not bad that was an award mayayor if you don't know. And yeah. so we, you know, ripp straight from the headlines here Uh, here was a joke No C try for old men. That's good. That was that was that was a contentious one because that was an audience members swch and they won not gonna happen we've made a rule that audience members cannot win the award. Yeah.'s that's it was too good But no country for old men is at the time It's fantastic. Uh, this is one My sex life is a lot like bigig gay O I am going to have sex with Big Gay O. Wh was big A? Big A. He was there for probably twenty three or twenty two of the time. Yeah. was he was a man. That was his name. That's how he identified himself was Gay O and he came I think about three AM and You know if they out Cokespoons to everybody? Yeah. What's a Cokespoon? F open of a can of Cke. Is it? But like It's tiny, right? It the old McDonald's coffee much smaller than that. smallaller than that. And we got ' them for free. So come this year I gotta Google a Cokepoon I know that people used to do like have a long fingernail. Yeah Do people have are Cokesman still a thing Uh, I guess Yeah, don't look. I feel like they're a seventies thing Yeah, I remember in the back of a seventies maybe Esquire or Playboy they had as are beautiful Oh yeah, so that one that's good does your look like h U Okay,, there's a range of those. Those are just differented over their drugs. Thats that one's retractable. Oh these are the McDonald's ones that's what I was thinking. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh yeah. I mean, if you had enough Coke Why not Um, so bigig Al was he was And he ed He passed away. Whatually, we learned this year he died of I know. We don't know. Okay. No he did. He passed away. I was messaged a few months ago and so he was a You know, a big part of the show. Yeah and u He was big and he was gay and. Well, these are the kinds of characters who show up. Yes. But the thing is the jokes that you're going to hear They They don't make sense now but Yeah they att the time, it's very it's very fun and you've written on the show many years. writing again this and you do you have a good time? I love it. Yeah You get in the zone. Do I have a good time? Yeah, two PM. the best of timnes. And then you find out later that Weirdly Most of the audience members have died. Yeah. It's the big reveal. It's so tough to sell tickets to this annual event. Yeah. But her cool Perot will be writing this year and he's gonna to come up with figures of clues Um G give this little mustache. Yeah. I' a writer. I't think write. Keep writing. I don't know how they do I't really know. I watched one of the Kenneth Branagh Agatha Christie's And like Why do British people so obsessed with that type of show? It's one of those well that's probably copyright free at this point, right? Are they paying the estate of Aegatha Christie? It's sort of like yes are they? Proablyood. Okay. They're not that old. Okay, okay. I thought it was like one of those things where it's like Robin Hood or Th Musketeers and they keep making that even though no one wants Yeah three musketeers. like no one's like you seen the latest F Musketeers movie. Yeah, they got to reboot the whole frch. Yeah every time. Is It' Moby Dick? That's very heavily copyrighted. Yeah. But why? No, I don't think so. I think it's you can you can see them that's the thing. Chr. I think Christopher Nolan's moby Dck would be huge and they're going like and they don't have to pay for it. Yeah. Yeah. I know all the like Steamboat Willie and Hopye the sailor man and Mi the poo is all public domain. Yeah. And so they could all meet up. Moby the Dick. Yeah. M you could have to fuck each other. I mean, you don't need to have the trademark to do that. You can goingo down the street, everybody's trying to adapt my Moby Dick Thanks a lot guys. Herman Melville. The was your Herman Melville. Yeah. and no one can tell me I'm wrong. Now it tragically does. Is he related to Moby? I heard that Moby is like a distant off the whale? No, of Herman Melville. Oh, okay. He was writing distant relative. Both of them said they dated Natalie Portmth. Yeah. actuallyctually, that same vegan pizza place, it had a poster on the wall was say that was like famous vegans and the top one was Moby Oh, really I think you was saying Natalie Port. No, she wasn't on there. She was It was Moby. Moby was number one. She thinks she's Ovo Lacto. Yeah. What is who are the other most famous veacans? Yeah, dropped off pretty hard after that. A lot of them were drawings Oh really? Yeah. like they had one photo on there. Aristotle, Pythagoras was on there. Oh sure. So I mean you Yeah cut you the younger Moby, yeah Um And yeah, My, when I worked at a book warehouse, he had a recipe a cookbook that would come through. and there's these were remainers. So like if it was kind of an unpopular one, you would get boxes and bo get a lot of boxes of Moobi's cookbook. And it was a lot of like, you can eat this page right next to the microscopes for those kids, ye Mother, I'd like another copy of Mobi's cookbook. you already have some in the car Um yeah, what was it called? It was called What's the Mobby's real name? Wh is aliion? Richard Melville Hall. one And what's this cookbook called He had a restaurant toohere in Brooklyn And then Oh, no search Well I I did write M Mi cookook bookook b. It's always fun when you get that like Google has no idea. Yeah anyot attempt to guess It's called The Little Pine Cookbook, modern plant based comomfort. Samy Cole I dated Natalie Portman. Do we like Mvie? I mean, I like the album the big album that he had at the time. I like his tattoos. Does he have cool tattoos Let's see Are they vegan? Do they use vegan? Oh the whole recipe. This whole arm it says animal rights. M He imagine getting stuck in a corner with him at a party and him telling you all the sorts of things And his neckays vegan for life. That wasn't on the poster. Is that my Uigayave vegan? Yeah Yeahah, I'm a huge moby fan. Here, let me sing you a couple of songs. His next says world's most famous vegan arris T Do we like Moby? Yes, because he has that song that goes Yeah. Wara F the beach Um Is it really? Yeah, you remember the beach? The DiCaprio Yeah Yeah, okay. Yes. E and M called him out Yeah song and nobody listens to tech no. Yeah. man was on with Gwuen Stefani? Yes outside. Yeah. so he was like, he was it for a while You play. Oh man. everywhere. I bet you, I bet you, this is my prediction. He will be playing the sphere in Las Vegas at some point. It' like a big interactive It, it's your piction. That's your prediction twenty twenty seven. Yeah,, well, like you have like a Can we give you ten years? L how will this happen? Give me I'm gonna to go on three years. I'm going on poolymarket and seeing the odds. M he doesn't look like he's got much time left by those photos. He looks tired. very tired and he's What does he need? Iiron pills? Yeah, he needs something He's afraid' a big frown he's got on his face. Yeah. H tattoo is vegan for life, which will not be long. See me at the sphere or will you But I feel like there's only a certain a group or whatever class of entertainer that can fill that place, which is gigantic. So it's like No doubt was there. honestly when you shared Moby is going to play, I thought you were going to say the state fair. I did not expect it to be He travels around with those trucks that set up the roller coasters in mall parking lots between Sary. Yeah. he's a card. Yeah, that's the word they prefer to be Eldbows up He is u Uh no, I don't know I haven't heard of him performing or touring at all. No. But I think he was like kind of wasasn't he like kind of a reckless or something? Or is there some other guy that was like a reckless that was a dance Tiesto? Yeah, it's probably Fiesto.ry. The big two Is it Armin Van Pur? was Armanur sorry, it wasn't Fiesto. Can we name one female? DJ, I know I can't. unless well, that's not true. Paris Hilton Yeah, that's true. Original All originals.

And then there's like sexual tension between the mom and the young pastor and then the dad and the neighbor and it's like There's no need for any of this drama in your show about a little genius boy.

Tony Soprano was out of control, you guys.

Sopranos is streaming on all the major networks. Really on all. It's not just Vancouver anymore. Yeah, turns out they didn't file some paperwork like the Ozempic people. And so it's copyright free in Canada at this point. So youzempic copyright free. Yeah What does that mean? You can make any movie you want that features Ozempic. You can inject it on stage at any open mic at this point is what I should have said. Please edit that in. No problem. No. I like a movie where people are just doing plenty of Ozempic. Just ask. Ccial consideration provided by in a movie Pomotional ye. as used to be just a couch likeike you would get a couch on a game show or Well, like in on TV shows or movies like They'll be like, you know Madam Webb will just be Mam Webes.

It was a get It was a get. Yeah, sorry. Twitch You should put like a big YouTube banner behind Why not I'd love to just we try to get sponsors this year and it's a lot harder than youd think. We try to get Hoka shoes, which wear You wear Hoka shoes. Yeah. I knew somebody who worked there And he took it back. And then he messaged me and he said They said that you're not really our demographic, which was a heartbreaking thing. Yeah. It seems like sort of a personal Hoka's demographic is Long distance runners and nurses. Yeah I felt like it easily there's a big audience there of people And there's a tie in. There is a tie. I thought it was a like a direct Cnect Have you buy your hokas yet for this year? No, I haven't. Steal them Yeah, you're right, El Steven. And we talk about I think we've branched this last year that every year you buy a new pair of hokas like you're the finance minister unveiling the budget Maybe we'll wear something fun this year I think we should say they were. They did sponsor the show. What are they going to do? We'll just give them that free advertising. Yeah. And what are they going to do? And then to stop tell you take your shoes off. What is the They're going to write jokes about it too. They're really going to make fun Who's the u who's your who's Hoka's biggest competitor Barefoot, I think, just not wearing shoes. Oh wow. you that's a great. No, not sketchers. sketchers is Wait, probably new balance because they both make big wide shoes, don't they Isn't that their thing? Yeah. I've got the wide foot. I'm a four e myself. Me too. Are you really? Yeah. Yeah. A four E? That's the biggest shoe you can get oniders.

It's the only shoe you can get that's big, big wide flipper sized shoe. Well Hoka's doing. Well, not to me anymore. they turn me down. Yeah Uh, do we Did you try anywhere else? N. After that I was pretty demoralized. So I said all the people that did sponsor, I said, takeake it back. I'm not interested at this point. Speaking of sponsoring, I saw you made an ad for this show you're doing. Yeah. Yeah. And I went to see Alien. Yeah the movie at the park theater And your ad played before Be the trailers ran. Yeah. Yeah. I was curious where they were going to put that. So like maybe you already knew this because you secured the deal. Yeah that they play it in like the pre show loop, not in the trailer the Hanner zipchin area. Yeah, that's true. It's effectively replaced his whole job. Yeah. big part of the ad is take your phones out and scan this QR code and play along with Grham sorting recycling its events Near the end, you remember that what scene points became? traravesty. It was like it was just a trivia about stores at the mall theedater was at. I was like, which How many years can you get on your warranty for tires at Canadian tire? Is it four? seven or unlimited What was the answerlimited? It was four actually. Yeah. they set themselves up for something there. Alimited tire warranty? Come on man. U ye, I like the u under d Uress actors having the answer questions or read trivia or whatever So this is we're describing a phenomenon in Cineplex theaters in Canada.orry. it's fine. This one U Sry sorry about that where that was my go or they run the trailers Well, they've now added this to the like twenty minute trailer package. Yeah where they'll just have It used to be Tanner zip chnd. who won a contest. So it used to be every single year, they'd run a contest to have someone be the host for the Cineapplex Ode on pre show. Yeah. And then he came along and he won one year and they said, that's it. That's the last ad We we're never going to run the call And he would interview, you know, people on junkets, but also like look to the camera and be like, allright, we're doing trivia Yeah he'd say just like that very very take out your phones and you'll get scene points which are redeemable at Montana's restaurant And Oh good. Well, have you seen the one that they now have? It's a woman in a parking lot she makes you save She. She asks Random strangers on the on the street.

And other only other guy can do is like hit your car, but he's not a street fighter. He can't tear it apart. That's right or Michael Jackson. Or Michael Jackson?

Did your inlws live over on Sw Spring Island or they It was just a vacation. o They live there? vac really. Yeah. Isn't that what we were calling them? We were doing in loavs In los In loavs. Yes.

Oh these are all the times where the word Constantine came up. Okay. eight ninety five that was Brent Constantine. U that all a transcript? Yeah. Oh wow. And it came up more than once. Someone else mentioned me on the show. probablyrobably we talked about the movie Constantine. Yeah Yeah or like. Clarark was sort of known as a cononstant team. Nice Right up to the end. Um so, you know we he passed away through threeree two One Yeah He was blown up on New Year's E If you guys are over seventy years old, I hope you enjoyed that He Dick Clark young thing, I'd never understood because I only ever saw him as a man and I was like, he looks like a normal man. Yeah. Like they're like, he has an age. and I'm like, he looked like this when he was a teenager. Yeah, my kids are Do that to me whenever I take Paul Rud They're like that's just a man. For me and the kids, we just finished getting through all Dick Clark's roockin New Year's Eve from the beginning. Yeah Yeah, completely. It's probably starting in the fifties, maybe. We finished young Sheldon and then I was like Do do you want to look at small red Do you want to lo that allright? Yeah You want to look at him? Yeah. Of course I do. He look alright. Yeah. He doesn't age. Yeah, he's got a smokeking bot. Just like Tom Cruz. Yeah, what was of the Tom Cruise marathon? What was number one? What was Let me go to my list because I have notes on every way What was the total number of movies you watched That to be like over twenty, right? Hold on guys. Well, he's made eight mission impossles. They'll probably only twelve others. Okay, so I'll start at the bottom And then I was like Drake did Yeah Now we're where So there's forty five. The first one was losing it. whichich was like a team a chronological order? No, this is in ranking order. So I'm gonna to start at forty five and then we're gonna go to But also was that the first one? No, the first one was Is the outsiders? was that his first? No He had a small part in a movie called Endless Love. Did you watch that one? Of course I did. Yeah. It was his first on screen role, ons screen role, please. edit that out. and' tell my inlogs my inlws. My in logs. In lows. Yeah a small part and it his part was he inspired the main character to burn down the house of the girl he was infatuated with And he was only in the movie and that was pre before they fixed his teeth. So you can sort of divide Tom Cruise into different eras as I have in this list, which we can post Yeah to the Facebook. giveive us the top three. What are your top top three? Yeah and the top And also let's talk about the eras. Okay. Well for me, okay, you guys might disagree. My number one is World of Worlds Okay, we might disagree And Magnolia And then color of money I was just playing at the Park theater really Yeah, whichich is A sequel to the Hasla. Yeah, that's right. And I think They should make a sequel to it in modern day, who could play The young Tom Cruise that Tom Cruise mentored You' an age. He doesn an age Yeah Fiveish shrinkle. U Yeah and Alf should come back Absolutely So the eras do is the first era of him bad teeth Yeah, are there other areas I know that like When he made Mission of posossible to and Vanilla Sky that was sort of shoulder length hair er out. Yeah. And then he sort of got like lightly canceled for a bit, you remember? when never jing on a coach. Yeah and for like the nutty things he does Yeah getting mad at bal hourly And then kind sorry, was he in any movie? probably nice to me? He was produced by Scientology like the way that no feel he never like I don't think they produced movies did they just older They starer. Oh okay. But he wasn't in that. I had a I feel like Look who's talking. That was a sent, but not the sequels. Well, both the leads are Christ Alli and Joh Traval. That's a good call But I could never When it came out, I no one believed me because I was eight U anyyway So anyways, I'm on the island. Having having a coffee before before I get into the plane. And in the coffee shop, they've got a like free newspapers And there's one that's called It was like called the Rambler or something like that. And it was consonspiracy newspaper and like is from likeike is it published on Sal Spring Island? I don't know. It seemed like that was a lot of American news and not But it was, you know, one of the things was about the pyramid with the eye at the top of it and you know, the secret deals between this country and that country and U you know, how to keep your freedom and all these top ten tips. your freedom, how to make a great lizard people pie. Number one, War of the Worlds. Yeah, it it was funny because usually the giveaway things are just kind of like, here's what's going on in the community.

Wow.'re not they're not flying off the shelves apparently. Were they free They were free and it was in the crossword No crossword. just the target that you practice shooting your enemies with. When you looked at the pile, did you look around to see if there was another guy in the corner looking at you with his fingers crossed like this?le p, p, pase,lease pase pase It's odd to see, I mean, that was the original place to put a conspiracy theory was in a self published. manifesto. Yeah, this as opposed to You know, the comment section of your podcast. Yeahah. Bnt's such a good looking guy. and hey, guys, here are a few groups I think should be exterminated. Like if you agree. It's not a conspiracy the. Well yeah, sry about that edit that out. They' the boy's just really a brick wall today, isn't it? The only advertisement in the thing must be the good wer demographic. Yeah No, it must have been the guy's wife because it was like she was a reikie. Oh yeah type of person. So that's the thing about these islands, they attract Hippies, consonspirersy guys Uh peopleeople who retired? The Venn diagram of hippies and consonspiracy guys Yeah, sort of a horseshoe theory, right? Like they go from different angles back to the same point. Yeah. hippie and Yeah, you go so far hippie that you become conspiracy hippie. Right. Yeah. I mean, it's all a big antix stup Another Vat basasted.

You have to be there fifteen minutes before boarding So we're walking around and then I decided this was not a good decision by me, but I was like, I'm just going to go back there and use the bathroom And I was like, I'll see you down to the plane. And then as I'm walking back, Sally' sayys like, hurry up, hurry up likeikeur go, go, go. So and I is it because of that cup of coffee you had? Yeah went right through me And I was discombobully.

Last So yesterday, last night I was on a call with customer service with Square the point of sale because the program was crashing And I was talking to the guy on the phone and I could just hear these like dogs barking in the background viciously barking while he's trying to g gently guide me through Deleting and reopening an app And then while there was a big pause, I was just like, are those your dogs He said No, I's like, they sound really big. And he said, they are. I was like, well, where are they? And he's like, they're outside the building So there's someone else's dog that lives at the building? he said No. And I said, well where are they from? He's like, They're just dogs that live at the building and people have to feed them to get out So I said so they so they're feral dogs that keep you captive. He's like, is there anything else I can help you with tonight I thought, Oh wow. You gott to feed them to get out. It was was I'm pretty sure it was South America because I could tell by the accent of the dogs. Wow, Hell Bark the I don't know if I've ever seen a dog fight. I've seen a lot of screwing around in a dog park. Before that like detail about feeding them to get out, I thought it was going to be that this guy is in prison and No, these are just the dogs that keep us in prison. Yeah That's the punishment they have to be tech support for square point of sale I I think that there is prison labor that does that kind of thing. There a lot of the call centers are in prison. And then the other one that would be probably a good job in prison 'cause you get to practice using a phone what you lose all the context for while you're in like, o my Godd, you have to learn about deleting an app. Like, Oh my go, okay, This is cool Yeah, Yeahah, applicable skills to the outside world and plus fun phones phone time.

We ate Terry, don't we? There There's this guy who's always crying. We gotta feed him so he can get it. U And then I'll sayry. I'll wait I have one more.
