And he's Graham Clark. And together
0:12
we host Stop Podcasting Yourself. Hello
0:23
everybody and welcome to episode number 824 of
0:25
Stop Podcasting Yourself. My name is Graham Clark.
0:27
And with me is always this man who
0:29
always looks so stunning. Whenever he gets a
0:31
new haircut, Mr. Dave Schumpke. I was wondering
0:33
what you were going to point to. I
0:36
was like, I look stunning in head to
0:38
toe with denim. Yeah, he's also wearing a
0:40
ball gown that's to die for. Yeah,
0:42
I like getting my hair cut.
0:44
It's a fun little vacation for
0:47
myself. And you sit
0:49
in a little car or on a little horse?
0:51
I do the little car. Yeah. I
0:53
get a lolly afterwards. It's
0:58
constantly, the ladies
1:01
constantly adjusting my head. No,
1:03
don't look down. I
1:05
need access to your nape. But
1:08
yeah, I love it. You
1:11
know, the best. The last time my
1:14
hairdresser didn't cut it short enough. And I was like,
1:16
I want to, when I rubbed
1:18
my hand on the back of the head, I wanted to feel spiky.
1:21
Love that feeling. Yeah. That
1:24
voice you're hearing now is a return
1:26
guest to the podcast. Very funny,
1:28
man. We always love to have him. He has
1:30
a brand new show on the
1:32
CBC called One More Time. It's DJ
1:35
Demares. Hey, DJ. Hey, Graham. Hey, Dave.
1:37
Thanks for having me. A TV show.
1:40
A TV show. A real deal television
1:42
show. A real television show, yeah. Like
1:44
that's going to be the credit that
1:46
you have that your like, aunts
1:48
and uncles will be like, oh my God, yes,
1:51
we watch everything on the CBC. You'll
1:54
be in with that cry. It's like the Dematers. It's the same thing.
1:56
It's just like, oh. Yeah. You'd
1:58
think so, but my dad keeps going. CBS?
2:01
I'm like, how do you not know CBC? Like,
2:03
he's Canadian, foreign and race. Yeah, David Letterman
2:05
used to be on the CBC. Oh,
2:08
you're gonna be after young Sheldon. Should
2:12
we get to know us? Yes, yes. ["Get
2:15
to Know Us"] Get
2:18
to know us. DJ, you
2:20
haven't been here in years. You moved to,
2:22
I think when we first had you
2:24
on the show, you were a Toronto comedian. Think
2:27
so, yeah. And then you moved to LA. Yeah,
2:29
got married, you had a baby. You
2:32
got a TV show, what's the biggest achievement?
2:36
And we went a little bit, you can't do,
2:38
oh no, it's this and that, it has to
2:40
be the one that you've narrowed down. Can we
2:42
also add your Conan set? Epic Conan set. Yeah,
2:44
yeah. Yeah, I mean, it's
2:46
hard to compare, you know, making a
2:49
beautiful baby boy and, you know, having
2:51
your own TV show, but gotta go
2:53
TV show. Absolutely, yeah. Cause
2:56
that's, it comes in seasons and you
2:58
get some downtime from it and... Exactly.
3:00
Yeah, and it's more... How are you
3:03
enjoying the downtime? ["Get To Know Us"]
3:07
So it's, okay, this
3:09
is a show called One More Time, named
3:12
after the Daft Punk song, I assume. Yep.
3:16
And it is... We wasted the whole
3:18
budget on using that song for the season,
3:20
so yeah. Cool. And it's on, it starts
3:23
January 9th, on CBC and
3:25
what is it? Yeah, tell
3:28
us all about it. It's a
3:30
workplace comedy. Okay. And I'm
3:32
the manager of a used sporting goods store called One
3:34
More Time Sports. So yeah,
3:36
just about all the hydrants we get up to
3:39
while I'm managing this group of ragtag
3:41
employees. I love a ragtag group. I've tried
3:43
to think of another word other than ragtag,
3:46
but they're ragtag. They're misfit. They're misfit, yeah.
3:48
A show, did you, is this your idea
3:50
of the show? Yeah, yeah, I wrote it
3:52
and pitched it to CBC. Thinking,
3:55
I will see, I don't know. And then
3:57
they like it. They pop too over there. They will not return,
3:59
I think. I'm calling. No,
4:01
it was honestly pretty crazy because I was just like,
4:04
we'll see and you don't expect anything to happen and
4:06
then something happened and you're like, oh, but then something
4:08
else will stop the process and then you move past
4:10
that and then all of a sudden you're writing and
4:12
then you're filming and then now we're in post-production. I'm
4:14
like, I guess it actually is
4:17
coming out. Yeah. That's
4:19
true, there's still time for them to turn back and
4:22
be like, you know what, they
4:24
wasted their budget on this daffling song.
4:26
We're not, they're not trustworthy. Do
4:28
you have, is this something based on your
4:30
life? Did you work? I worked at a used
4:33
sporting goods store in high school. What was it called? Play
4:35
It Again Sports. Oh, it's kind of the big
4:37
one. Yeah. It's like a chain. And then I
4:39
went in to Play It Again Sports last summer
4:41
when the show had been, or two
4:44
summers, no, no, last summer, sorry. I
4:46
wanna be that guy now where I just spend five minutes
4:49
trying to figure out one detail that nobody else cares about.
4:51
Or was it the summer before that? Let's
4:53
see, Carly Rae Jepsen was on the radio. That could have
4:56
been any summer since 2013. But
4:59
yeah, I popped by my old stomping ground at Play It
5:01
Again Sports, and I haven't worked there since high school. So
5:03
it's been like 20 years, 18 years. And
5:05
my old manager was still managing the place and the
5:07
owner was there too. And he wasn't there that often.
5:10
So I popped in and I had these rose colored
5:12
glasses on. Cause when I wrote the
5:14
show, it was like me harkening back to this nostalgic,
5:16
you know, the Halcyon days of my youth. Now just
5:18
for the listener, this is a metaphor. He wasn't
5:20
really wearing, or maybe he was wearing rose colored
5:22
glasses. He is possible. Oh yeah, no, I don't
5:24
know what a metaphor is. I
5:26
was wearing rose colored glasses. I went in and I
5:29
was like, wow, it's so crazy that they're both still there.
5:31
And I was like, I wrote a show that's kind of
5:34
like based on this time. And they were both so, they're
5:37
nice people, but they were not like, oh my
5:39
God, that's incredible. They were like, oh yeah, cool.
5:41
And I was like, oh yeah, like nostalgia is,
5:44
nostalgia, it's not real. Yeah. And
5:46
it's not nostalgia for them. They still work there. But
5:49
you know, I think, I
5:51
also think that when it comes out,
5:53
they might be more excited. When
5:56
somebody tells you something, you don't know what that means. Yeah, well like
5:58
it's the kind of thing that like. If
6:01
people watch the show, if, then
6:05
like they'll, they, people will never
6:08
shut up to them about this. Yeah,
6:10
that's true. Yeah. It's like
6:12
my friend who, well, we thought ever since
6:14
the show Friends came out, I'm always asking,
6:16
so do you know the show Friends? This
6:19
is kind of an example for me. And
6:24
then also this is us. I'm like, this is us. And
6:28
do these guys remember you? Yeah, yeah, they remembered me.
6:30
I'm realizing now I already feel regret like it sounds
6:32
like I was shitting on them or something. It was
6:34
very nice to see both of them. But
6:36
because I wrote this show, like I
6:39
said, with this like nostalgic
6:41
kind of lens in my mind, I don't
6:44
know, I expected to walk in there and they
6:46
put me up on their shoulders or something. Remember
6:48
the glory day? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's
6:50
get drunk with these guys. They're just some
6:53
employee and a long list of employees that
6:55
have worked there. Yeah, like
6:58
put yourself in their shoes. They're like, okay,
7:00
this thing, you made a thing. Sure you
7:02
did. Sure you wrote a
7:04
thing. Okay, great. Yeah. No,
7:08
I definitely, while I was writing it was
7:10
kind of, because I wrote it during the
7:12
pandemic and I was in LA, so there
7:15
was protests going on. Oh,
7:17
yeah. President at the time and
7:19
maybe I'm back.
7:21
Bring him back again. Bring him back.
7:24
Yeah, one more time. I
7:26
was like, I was like, what did you just say? I said
7:28
one more time, let's bring him back one more time. I
7:31
literally wrote a show that I said, I just want something
7:33
to feel good that CBC would like and
7:35
then CBC actually liked it. So it's kind of crazy
7:37
how it worked out that way. But
7:40
yeah, it's kind of, it's just like a silly
7:42
kind of Brooklyn Nine-Nine parks and rec type
7:44
thing where it's like based, you
7:47
know, in this workplace, but crazy thing
7:49
happened with it for a while. Did you,
7:51
what was the worst gas
7:53
member? No, we're working in
7:55
this industry, the industry of
7:57
used sporting goods. That is the nastiest. stuff
8:00
people try to resell. Were
8:03
you ever rejecting stuff that people brought in? You
8:05
gotta think helmets. There's gotta be some pretty grody
8:07
helmets out there. Helmets, and sometimes people just bring
8:09
in a full hockey bag and they just want
8:11
you to sort through it. So
8:13
you're just pulling out jock straps. And
8:16
people, and I feel this now too, now I
8:19
have hockey equipment that is 20 years old because
8:21
I just, a certain point hit where I'm like,
8:23
I'm not updating it. And so
8:25
people come in and then 20 years turns into 30,
8:27
turns into 40, so you got people coming in and
8:30
they're trading in 40 year old hockey equipment that just has
8:33
generations of sweat built into it. Wow.
8:36
Yeah, so we actually, for the show
8:38
one more time, we got all equipment
8:40
from a real used sporting goods store.
8:42
Oh really? Several of them in the
8:44
area. So the set smelled like a
8:46
real. Where did you use this? Toronto?
8:48
Scarborough, yeah. Okay. Yeah, what is
8:50
the, was it smelled like kind of leathery?
8:52
I'm trying to think what the smell of
8:55
it. Leather, sweat, there's
8:57
some cleaning products maybe. I
9:00
started playing hockey again in my late 30s and
9:03
I didn't want to buy new gear, except
9:06
for like skates and helmet and
9:08
some address and
9:10
maybe gloves, but everything
9:12
else was used. And I went
9:16
to like, you know, it's tough. Like I
9:18
bought stuff that was the wrong size just
9:20
because it was the only. Well
9:22
you say you're gonna grow into it. Yeah,
9:25
maybe my elbows will get bigger. But yeah,
9:27
so I have, I'm wearing other men's sweat
9:29
right now. Nice.
9:33
Well, right now. I had all
9:35
my hockey equipment stolen from my
9:37
place in LA when we lived in East Hollywood. Somebody
9:39
broke into our garage in the basement and
9:42
I came out in the morning and my property manager
9:44
at the time was like, is this your stuff? And
9:46
on the road, my whole hockey bag was dumped out
9:48
because they probably opened it and we're like, fuck this.
9:50
What the hell is it? But they took the skates
9:52
and they left everything else. I feel like you can
9:54
use that on the street. Those
9:56
are weapons. I think they're the most expensive
9:58
thing. Most expensive. most stinky thing
10:01
too. Yeah. Yeah,
10:03
I guess so. But it's all machine washable.
10:06
People don't know this, but you can put every piece of hockey
10:08
in the... Really? One skates, throw them in
10:10
there? Yeah, no, not skates. And
10:12
not helmets, but like everything else. Even gloves. Yeah?
10:16
With their leather palms. Really? They
10:18
can go away. You just can't try them. Huh. My
10:21
cat growing up used to love peeing on my hockey
10:23
equipment. Something about the smell of my sweat. My cat
10:25
loved it. And so that smell never fully came out.
10:27
So that might be another smell that's in... Yeah. Maybe
10:30
a lot of cats like peeing in it. I'm not
10:32
sure. I passed by a store today that was like
10:35
leather goods. And I was like, oh, maybe I
10:37
should stick my head in just the smell. Oh,
10:39
sure. The leathery smell. Yeah, when you go past...
10:41
Yeah, all leather goods. Do you
10:43
like... Are you a sub or a dom? Hey, you know
10:45
what? Flip a coin? Yeah. Yeah.
10:49
I'm... No, not poly. What
10:51
would I call myself? Oh, I guess you're sort of like...
10:53
Yeah, like a utility and silver. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's right.
10:55
But yeah, I'm a sub. I'm a sub. I'm a sub.
10:59
But yeah, and you went to Subway.
11:01
Of course, that's like a smell
11:03
that's like one in a million kind of smell.
11:05
Oh, just for the listener, DJ with the subway
11:07
real further show. Before I came over here. Yeah,
11:10
I was a little bit early. So I got
11:12
a chocolate milk too. It went crazy. Nice. Yeah.
11:15
Yeah. Because I was at a subway in Edmonton
11:17
last week and I saw a woman drinking a chocolate milk and it's been on
11:19
my mind all week. I've had that before too,
11:22
where you just like... I remember seeing a cinnamon
11:24
bun and just being like, well, I
11:26
got to go all the way out to kids to
11:28
get this particular cinnamon bun that I can't stop thinking
11:30
about. Or I'll just keep thinking about it
11:32
over and over again. But
11:35
Subway twice in two weeks. Yeah,
11:38
after not having it for probably been like a
11:41
year. What is your... Boy,
11:45
yes, there's so many kind of fast food questions I want
11:47
to ask. Is
11:49
there like anything you took a break
11:51
from fast food wise that you came back to?
11:54
Like in my 20s, I don't think I went to McDonald's
11:56
once. And then in my 30s
11:58
and 40s, I love it. Yeah, I haven't
12:00
been to McDonald's in like I would
12:03
I would hazard to guess at least 15
12:05
years Wow But subway I can
12:07
throw down at subway at any time. I take
12:09
a big break from subway as well, but yeah
12:12
Yeah, I was vegan for a few years.
12:14
I was doing the veggie delight at Subway
12:17
and then now I'm not anymore And I just go
12:19
hard. I don't even know what meat was on my
12:21
side I just got but they were all sorts of
12:23
animals on there Full
12:26
of that one I guess a lamb I Covered
12:31
like I wanted to be a meat sandwich,
12:33
too Yeah, but no the subway I took
12:35
a break from McDonald's has probably been like
12:37
five years or something But when
12:40
you're on the road like as much as
12:42
you're like, I'm gonna eat healthy like where are you going? So
12:45
one place that like has a thing that
12:47
I can eat that's healthy is Starbucks because
12:49
they have these like egg white Yeah,
12:52
yeah, yeah, those are like they're
12:54
so delicious no way they're good.
12:56
Those are ball. They're bomb it
12:58
was It's like like
13:02
protein and it's cheap and
13:04
it's there Starbucks everywhere Oh, sometimes you go to
13:06
small town and they don't even have a McDonald's
13:09
I feel like if you don't have a McDonald's then
13:11
it's like you're not having a well did DJ tell
13:13
you where he's going tomorrow Where you
13:15
going? Hey, where are
13:17

13:22
my doors. Are you been there? Yeah. Yeah I've
13:24
never done you love it. I love it. I'm
13:26
real time. What are you doing up there several
13:28
times? Just done shows up there one. Yeah, and
13:30
I've also been to Dawson City,
13:32
which is even farther north Hmm,
13:35
but yeah Whitehorse. How long
13:37
you there for two nights Friday and Saturday? I
13:40
should give you the contact
13:42
information of this dog sledding place Yeah,
13:44
that I went to which was the
13:46
best. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah amazing Yeah,
13:48
I would love that cuz I got nothing to do
13:50
on the Saturday, but I realized as I was packing last night
13:53
I don't have a winter coat. Mmm. Yeah. Yeah,
13:55
I got rid of it like three months ago Cuz
13:57
I was like, I don't need this I'm not going
14:00
anywhere cold. I've held onto it this
14:02
long. It was old and ratty and
14:04
I was in LA. I'm like I'm gonna buy a
14:06
new one soon. I'll blend you one. There you go.
14:08
You'll lend me one? Yeah. Because I'll be
14:10
back Sunday and I can give it to you. If you want. I
14:13
mean I'd love that. You know, what do
14:15
you wear? Medium? Large? I mean
14:17
I think they're pretty similar. I think medium
14:19
or large depending on... What's your... What's your
14:22
main thing? What do you weigh? Well,
14:25
this is more... It might be taller than me. I
14:28
thought I was six feet ever since
14:30
high school. I measured myself again. Four
14:33
foot seven. Four foot seven? Yeah. You're
14:35
shorter than Joe Rocha.
14:38
No, no. No, I'm now five, eleven
14:40
and a half. I don't know if
14:42
I shrunk or I just mismeasured myself
14:45
but I was walking around with the
14:47
confidence of a six foot man for
14:49
the last 20 years.
14:51
I've got to do something to you.
14:55
Well, this trip is a little working out.
14:57
Well, does Whitehorse have...
15:03
You're the expert, Graham. Does it have Starbuck?
15:06
It... I think the Starbucks is in
15:08
a grocery store. Like it's one of
15:10
those kind of booth setups. They
15:12
definitely have a Subway because I've eaten with
15:15
the Subway and Whitehorse. I think they... I'm
15:17
pretty sure they have a McDonald's. Maybe
15:19
even an A&W but their shopper's drug wire
15:22
closes at five. So if you need to
15:24
get anything, some lip balm or whatever, head
15:26
in there. For the listener,
15:28
of course we are recording this. We're not recording
15:30
this the week between Christmas and New Year's. Yeah,
15:33
come on. Who gets anything done during that week,
15:35
right? We are recording this mid-December
15:37
and I checked the Vancouver sunrise
15:41
and sunset compared
15:44
to Whitehorse. Whitehorse has a later sunset
15:47
than Vancouver. Really? Yeah, the sunset's at
15:49
4.45 but it doesn't come up till
15:51
11.05 in the morning. And
15:55
I've been there on both sides of that. I've
15:57
been there where it's the spring and summer where
15:59
it gets... Like it's still bright
16:01
out at 11 at night. So you walk
16:03
out of a bar and you just feel like, what the
16:06
fuck am I doing with my life? You
16:09
feel like that assassin in The Bourne Identity, I think
16:12
it was, where he gets to call to kill Matt
16:14
Damon and he's in this club and then he steps
16:16
out and he realizes it was like the middle of
16:18
the day. I don't know why that scene is so
16:20
vivid. I don't remember that. I don't know. Me either.
16:23
I think about it regularly. Is it the first one?
16:25
I think it was, yeah. Oh, sorry. Come
16:27
on, come on, come on. Come on. Oh man,
16:29
I was watching the Equalizer 3 on my plane
16:31
here. And honestly, Equalizer
16:33
1 and 2, two of my favorite movies of
16:35
all time and 3 was kicking ass. I
16:38
fell asleep but goddamn, I love the Equalizer. These
16:40
are the fellas. I sleep
16:42
on planes. I love it. Oh, I
16:45
got the neck pillow. Are these
16:47
Denzel Washington movies? Yeah. Denzel, I
16:49
mean, honestly, I think
16:51
if I had to name my top three Denzel movies
16:53
of all time, it would be Equalizer 1, 2
16:56
and I'm only halfway through but I think 3 is going to make a
16:58
case. You're not throwing in the
17:00
hurricane? You're not talking about something? Oh yeah,
17:02
that's even more. That's compared to the Equalizer.
17:05
No. Or in Hurricane, even pre-Equalizer, I wouldn't put
17:07
in my top three of Denzel. Really? What
17:10
about, what's the one, Blue Devil in Blue dress? Is
17:12
that? Yeah, yeah. That
17:14
one would probably maybe make my top three. Man
17:16
on Fire is up there for sure. Oh yeah,
17:18
yeah. Training day? Yes, training day.
17:20
Inside Man? Inside Man might
17:22
be number one pre-Equalizer. Yeah. Nice.
17:26
I've been talking, what's the football
17:28
one with Ryan Gosling as a
17:30
quarterback too? What? Oh,
17:33
was Ryan Gosling
17:35
in that, like,
17:38
it's not We Are Marshall. Not
17:40
We Are Marshall but something like that. Yeah. Not
17:43
Friday Night Light. And it wasn't We Were Kings. It was,
17:45
but it is. It's like
17:47
something like, wait, is it high school football? They
17:51
solved racism through football. Yeah. I
17:53
thought he was gonna do it. It was gonna be football. What the
17:56
hell was that movie called? I can't believe I forget
17:58
the title. I remember the title. Remember the
18:00
tight? Remember the tight? We forgot the
18:02
tight. Was Ryan Gosling a
18:04
left? I'm pretty sure he was. He might not
18:06
have been the quarterback or he was a backup
18:09
quarterback or something. Are you confusing him with Donald
18:11
Faison? Oh my god,
18:13
I always make that mistake. What's your
18:15
favorite Donald Faison? Ryan Gosling, not even
18:17
in the top like five
18:20
or six actors, but he's in
18:22
it. Yeah, he was like post-breaker high. He had like, but
18:24
he was funny and then he was, I mean,
18:26
that's why I remember. Yeah. I
18:28
remember the other, there was Denzel's assistant coach who's
18:31
also... You're talking about Will Patton as Bill Yost?
18:34
Who is it? Who's the actual... Will
18:37
Patton as Bill Yost? I
18:41
don't know. It's a great movie though.
18:44
Is it Kip Perdue as Ronnie Sunshine Bass?
18:47
They're just making up... Craig Kirkwood as
18:49
Jerry Rev Harris. Ooh,
18:51
it had a young Kate Bosworth as
18:53
Emma Hoyt. Kate Bosworth, you didn't know?
18:56
Of course, Ethan Soupley as Louis Lastick.
18:58
Ethan Soupley somehow launched his way into
19:00
my algorithm and I see Ethan Soupley
19:02
all the time. What
19:05
is he doing? He was just
19:07
in a movie as a... Well,
19:09
he lost a lot of weight. Okay. And
19:11
I think he went through a drug thing. I think he might
19:13
have come out on the other side of a dark time in
19:15
his life based on what I've
19:18
seen in my algorithm. And he was just in
19:20
a movie that I saw. Apparently, I
19:22
forget every movie I've watched other than the Equalizer, but
19:24
he was just a villain in a movie. He was
19:27
a... I don't know this movie. He's
19:30
the guy from My Name is Earl, The Buddy.
19:32
Right. Yeah. Was he a
19:35
member of the Pussy Posse? He was literally...
19:37
Not when I was there. He was in... I
19:39
think he might have been in everything all at
19:41
once or everywhere all at once. I
19:43
fell asleep one night. I haven't finished it. What, you weren't
19:45
playing at the time? Well, if you've been playing at the
19:47
moment... Anyone could have been in it. You could have shown
19:49
up in the second half of that movie. I was like,
19:51
great movie though. I know it's old news. I don't know
19:54
if it won the Oscar or not, but I finally did.
19:56
It was like a month ago. I was like, it's that
19:58
time I watched this. And I was like, damn. It's
20:00
good. I needed time for the high-fifty side for me to
20:02
get a little bit random. But I
20:04
can't watch it. Like, I watched
20:06
ParaSight right when it won the
20:08
Oscar, and then my expectations are
20:10
too high, and then I don't enjoy it
20:12
as much. So I need a little bit of time for
20:15
my flights. This is like that this
20:17
time of year when this episode comes out is the time
20:19
when I watch all the things. I'm like... You
20:22
keep it current. I like it. Well, like,
20:24
when things are nominated, I'm like, I
20:26
have a bunch of free time. Sure. I
20:28
like to go to the movie theater and
20:30
see the nominees and stuff, or
20:33
at least the Golden Globe nominees. Like, last
20:35
year I did a week of, like, Triangle
20:38
of Sadness and Tar.
20:40
I loved Tar. Tar is so
20:43
good. Tar. Tar is bomb. I
20:45
bought Tar. You
20:48
did? Like, I love Tar. Because I... So you can
20:50
watch it whenever you want? Yeah. You know how... Tar
20:52
is amazing. I don't watch many movies. Like, I didn't
20:54
see Triangle of Sadness. But Tar, I just watched a
20:57
few months ago and I was so good. Well, you
20:59
know how I... Like, for years, if I was bored
21:01
or like, I was like, I just want to put
21:03
something on... What would I put on? Moneyball.
21:06
Moneyball. It was Moneyball. Oh, Moneyball?
21:08
Oh, I'm great with Moneyball. These
21:10
are Moneyball. Yeah. Nice.
21:13
Really being. Beautiful movie, too. The Grass
21:15
looks so lovely. Moneyball. Like, everything about
21:17
it. Great Aaron Sorkin script.
21:20
Dave likes the movie where there's a lot
21:22
of, like, talking. Walking a dog. Walking a
21:24
dog. They don't even
21:26
come close to winning the World Series at the end of that
21:29
movie. Yeah. Well, you know, they're not
21:31
the Mighty Ducks, so they're... No,
21:33
they're not. But I
21:35
was like, as soon as I saw Tar, I was like, well,
21:37
this is my new Moneyball. This is a thing I'm going to
21:39
be able to watch all the time. Move over Moneyball. Weird.
21:42
They do the ending credits at
21:44
the beginning of Tar. Oh, yeah. And I
21:46
didn't fast forward, did you? I
21:48
started in the theater. So I was... And
21:51
I showed up a minute late. And so I didn't
21:53
realize there was something before... There was, like, a post-credit
21:56
scene before opening credits.
21:58
Yeah, it was really crazy. You could write... when
22:00
a start Nick Fury comes in and he starts
22:02
the movie up like well I'm not used to
22:04
this yeah but anyways I'm not happy with these
22:07
snakes on this plane so
22:14
do you think is it too deep of
22:16
a rabbit hole if I asked you a
22:18
question about tar right now you know what
22:20
it's completely inappropriate cuz I I
22:22
haven't done this no I loved it so much
22:24
I started reading like internet theories and everything I
22:27
haven't done that since the equalizer too and
22:29
it's sort of like
22:37
the way that like Liam Neeson later
22:39
in his career became a revenge
22:42
action guy but yes equalizer one is
22:44
definitely they said Oh take him was
22:46
so popular let's make our Denzel taken
22:48
but then they elevated it beyond and
22:50
then what's his
22:53
face Kevin Costner had his with a
22:55
walk among the tombstones I
22:57
don't know that I think you'll like
23:00
it it's like one of these
23:02
one-man army revenge yeah I
23:04
do like one man I'm a three has
23:07
the highest of all the ratings between in
23:10
the equalizer trilogy on on rotten tomatoes I think it's
23:12
like 92% or something nice
23:14
I don't know it's something in the 90s if I'm
23:16
not my it
23:18
takes place in an Italian
23:20
villa I mean it's an
23:23
art like it's not you
23:25
know popcorn like it's it's
23:27
it's it's one of these avant-garde
23:31
but do you think she was dreaming
23:33
at the end of tar hmm oh
23:35
the end is so funny yeah when she's
23:37
it but like boiler alert yeah I haven't
23:39
seen it I don't I think it was
23:42
I well I I don't
23:45
know I I haven't
23:47
reexamined it in that way but I for
23:50
me it's just like such
23:52
a great turn at the end
23:54
so it makes it so
23:56
funny yeah yeah I gotta
23:58
see this very very end in that film.
24:00
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Such a great film. Okay.
24:02
You saw this. I'm gonna watch the two
24:04
equalizers I haven't seen. I will
24:06
watch Star. I will rewatch Moneyball. No, no,
24:09
no. I will fall asleep during what movie
24:11
do you call it? Equalizer 3. Equalizer 3.
24:13
Yeah, yeah. Probably watch Mighty Ducks 2 just
24:15
to show it in there. Yeah, yeah. Because
24:17
we talked about it. Yeah. I also watched
24:19
The Killer on that. Yeah. Later,
24:21
David Fincher. Ooh, I love it. I watched
24:24
the first 40 minutes of that and I
24:26
fell asleep. But I love Fincher
24:28
2 and that movie because I went into that
24:30
with the reverse of what I said about Oscar
24:32
winning movies where I heard because I was so pumped
24:34
for it because I also love Fast Bender, I heard that
24:36
it was not good. Oh. And so
24:38
I went in being like, ah, damn, I love Fincher.
24:40
This is gonna be disappointing if it's not good. And
24:43
I'm like 10 minutes past after he messed up. Yeah.
24:45
I hope that's not too much of a spoiler. But
24:47
it's really, it's the same. It's like a one man
24:49
army style but with Fincher in
24:51
charge. It's really cool which is watching
24:53
somebody who's like describe how in control
24:55
they are of a situation and then
24:57
watch them do their not. I loved
24:59
Mank too. I don't know because nobody
25:01
talks about Mank. I didn't love to
25:03
make. I mean, it was pandemic. I
25:05
had a couple of edibles and I said, let's watch
25:08
just three and a half hours. Mank was the story
25:10
of Mank. So Gary Oldman
25:12
is Mank. Where he's been. Mank
25:15
was the guy who
25:17
wrote Citizen Kane. Like
25:19
him dealing with the,
25:22
he really knew the guy it's
25:24
based on. Yeah. Was
25:26
it Mank or something? Probably Mank. Well, yeah,
25:29
I think like it was David Fincher's dad
25:31
had some relationship with the real Mank. Oh,
25:33
I got it. But then also Mank knew
25:36
the guy who was the real Citizen
25:39
Kane. Like what's his name? Oh, Hurst. Yeah,
25:42
was it Hurst? William Randall Hurst. Yeah. Yeah. And it
25:44
was all, and it was played by my friend from
25:46
work, Charles Dance. Yeah, I worked
25:49
for Charles Dance. I don't want to talk about
25:51
it. He didn't love it. I actually
25:53
never met him, but I wrote
25:56
some podcasts that he narrated. Nice. I've
25:58
got it on. audio file of him
26:00
saying my name in the credits. That's
26:02
pretty cool. That's pretty cool. You should have
26:04
it as a ringtone. You know what, I got him. I've got Pee Wee
26:07
Herman during my voice. I am. Maybe
26:11
I make a little Mount Rushmore of guys
26:13
who said my name. That's pretty good. If
26:16
you like one-man army movies, have you heard of
26:19
this movie, Sisu, S-I-S-U? No. It
26:23
is a Finnish movie. And
26:26
it is about... He never finishes movies. Come
26:28
on. It was lying there. It
26:31
came out in the last couple of
26:33
years and it's about how the Nazis...
26:36
It was in World War II. The Nazis
26:39
were pulling out of Finland. But
26:42
on their way out, they were being real
26:44
jerks about it. Really? Yeah, yeah,
26:46
yeah. That sore loser. Yeah, and they messed with
26:48
the wrong guy. Oh, shit. That's always when you
26:51
mess with the wrong guy. And
26:53
it's always somebody who's had all sorts of
26:55
training, was just minding their business. They
26:57
don't want to hurt you. No. This
27:00
guy in Sisu... No, no, no. The
27:02
guy is like... They're out of the game. I don't want
27:04
to drag them back in. The guy is like a legend.
27:06
Like, people have never seen this guy, but everyone's heard about
27:08
him. Yeah. Oh, wait. It's
27:11
him. It's Sisu. Damn, it's Sisu. Do you
27:13
know what's interesting is I love this one-man
27:16
army genre. John Wick didn't do
27:18
it for me. Really? Sorry.
27:21
I liked one, not enough to keep going. I want to do it.
27:23
I got a C2. Let me give
27:25
you a little bit of information about me.
27:27
I haven't seen the sequel to anything. Not
27:32
even like a Godfather II or something
27:34
like that? No, I have seen... You've
27:36
seen Wayne's World 2. Yeah, I've seen
27:38
comedy sequels. But none
27:40
of these ones that came
27:42
out of nowhere, you're like... John
27:45
Wick was a surprise hit. And I really
27:47
liked it. But I'm like, hmm,
27:50
you didn't earn... This isn't something
27:52
that keeps going. It's
27:54
much killing. I like when you
27:56
see it in their eyes that they're capable of
27:58
it. They use it sparingly. It's just like, you're
28:00
getting shot, you're getting stabbed, you're getting shot.
28:02
Oh, to me, it's like watching a ballet
28:05
or something. Like, it's just, it's so
28:08
fluid and choreographed, but I've never seen
28:10
in a fight scene before. Yeah. Like,
28:12
there's, yeah, there's kind of like, it's
28:15
thought out a lot more than I
28:18
think any fight scenes I've ever seen have kind of
28:20
thought it out, but. I think that's. I'm a wick
28:22
head, I'll say. I'm a wick head. I think that's
28:24
more true of the last 10 years or so. I
28:26
haven't seen any sequels of anything in the last 10
28:28
years. I've been money balled too.
28:32
Don't tempt me. And the
28:35
same is true of like most TV shows. I'm
28:37
like, I don't need season two of it. No,
28:39
that, I also have that. Even if I'm loving
28:41
a show, then season two comes out, I'm like,
28:44
yeah, I'm fine. Yeah. Yeah, especially if
28:46
they tied up, you know, the
28:48
last episode nicely enough, like maybe there was
28:50
some tendrils that hadn't been solved, but you're
28:53
like, yeah, that's the end of the story.
28:55
Take some comedies, I'll keep coming back to
28:57
comedies. Yeah. You're righteous
28:59
gemstones. You're only orders in the building.
29:01
You're one more time. I
29:04
can't wait to see it. I'm very excited. How I saved
29:06
that one. That was good. Who
29:09
else is in the show, who else works in the
29:11
store? Oh, you know who's on it, past
29:13
guest of ours. Dan Bairn,
29:16
how do you pronounce it? I actually, I
29:18
say Bairn. I think it is Bairn. Yeah,
29:20
but I wanna say Bairn. It's E-I-R-N-E. He's
29:24
so funny. Yeah. I mean, the whole
29:26
cast is funny, but Dan Bairn, I know from back, he was sketching
29:29
improv in Toronto, and he was in
29:31
Fargo season two, I think. The
29:33
one with Nick Offerman and Dan. Oh
29:36
yeah, who's in it? But
29:38
yeah, he's super funny. Jerry
29:40
Hall, who's on this hour. Oh
29:42
yeah, Jerry Hall's awesome. Yeah, he's
29:44
great. Elise Bauman, who's amazing too,
29:47
Dayton Sincaya. And we
29:49
have this kid named Saren. Saren,
29:52
apologies if I say your last name
29:54
wrong, Saren. Saren, Saren. Saren, Saren. Saren,
29:56
Saren. He's the evil guy from a
29:58
Ring movie. I just thought it was like one of
30:00
those. But Saren was 14 when
30:03
we started filming. Because we wanted a
30:05
teenager, a real teenager. Because
30:07
when we were casting, you find kids who are
30:09
people who are like 25, 27, but
30:12
they still could pass for a teenager. But we
30:15
were like, no. Because I went home one night
30:17
and started watching Arrested Development. Michael Saren was just
30:19
so funny. And he was actually 15. Yeah,
30:22
yeah. No, we've got to get a real teenager.
30:24
And we could not find one. And the Saren
30:26
kid came out of nowhere at the 11th hour. And
30:29
a casting agent in Toronto saw him
30:31
at some workshop conference thing. Like
30:33
he'd never even acted before. Really? And then he came
30:35
up to her booth and talked to her. And she
30:37
was like, I got something for you. Sent
30:40
it to us. And he's like a
30:42
revelation. Holy shit. He's 15. He turned 15
30:44
a month into filming. But he's
30:46
so funny. He's so authentically teenage. What'd you
30:49
do for his birthday a month into filming?
30:52
His birthday? Yeah, what'd you do? For his 15th?
30:55
I think we brought in a cake for him. It's funny
30:57
because it was early on. So we brought in a cake
30:59
for him. And then it was somebody else's birthday a few
31:01
weeks later. And I was like, let's get a cake for
31:03
them too. And the production team was like, no, we just
31:05
did that because he's a kid. Nobody else gets any celebration.
31:07
I was wondering, yeah. Yeah, like it would be too much.
31:09
Surely the star would get a cake. My
31:12
birthday's now when we were filming. When's your birthday? I was going
31:14
to lie just to get a cake at some point. What about
31:16
your half birthday? How about that? Yeah. OK.
31:19
You lost your virginity. These are also dates
31:21
that we could celebrate with a cake. No, I'm
31:23
hoping to lose mine tonight. Tonight's
31:25
name. You've
31:27
left yourselves a little time. I
31:30
know. And Abby is mad at me. I
31:34
do not see it happening. When's your
31:36
birthday? January 7. Holy
31:39
moly. We released it. OK. Nice.
31:42
And two days before the big debut. That's
31:44
right. One day after the big party at
31:46
the Capitol. Yeah,
31:49
yeah. That is a weird time to be celebrating,
31:51
for sure. Speaking
31:54
of teenagers playing teenagers, either you guys
31:56
seen Dear Evan Hansen or watched two
31:58
minutes of it. No, but
32:00
I, dear Evan Hansen. Oh no, I've never,
32:03
no. It is wild.
32:05
It is wild because the guy
32:07
who originated the role was
32:09
a teenager when he started the
32:11
Broadway show, but is
32:13
not now and was cast as
32:16
the character that he played on Broadway. Didn't he really?
32:19
Yeah. And what, like 30 by that
32:21
time? Easily, yeah. And didn't look like a kid. Didn't look
32:23
like a kid at all. I think he was wearing a
32:25
wig. I remember his face. I can see
32:27
him on the cover or something. Was he in Pitch
32:29
Perfect 2 or Pitch for Everyone?
32:32
I don't know. I don't
32:34
know, but he didn't remember the Titans.
32:37
That's such a trip. My buddy
32:39
was the lead. He was Elder Price in Book
32:41
of Mormon. Oh really? Yeah.
32:44
Like he did it on Broadway. He was also part of the touring
32:46
company. He was with him for five years, but he was, I think,
32:48
27 when he started and 32 when he ended.
32:52
Right. But even 27, you know,
32:55
you're already about seven or 10 years older than the
32:57
Mormon boy you're playing. Yeah.
33:00
So it would be Mormon teenagers. But by the end,
33:02
he's 32 or 33 trying to just, it's not just
33:04
about how you look, right? Like you're like, you got
33:06
to bring that teenage energy. Yeah, yeah. And it messed
33:08
him up a little bit. Just like, could you come
33:10
off of that now? You're done. And you're
33:12
like, I'm not a teenager. I'm not a teenager. But
33:14
you've been playing one for the last five years, literally
33:16
every day, like one day off a week. Yeah.
33:20
Weird. Yeah. I
33:22
mean, it's a weird thing to put yourself in the shoes of being
33:24
a specific type of person for five years straight. Yeah,
33:26
yeah. And you're like, I guess I have to age
33:28
15 years to my regular age
33:30
now. Right. How old are you
33:32
in your show? He's a teenager. But, you know,
33:34
he wasn't like that deep into the line. No,
33:37
I think I'm a teenager. They've seen me doing
33:39
skateboard tricks at the end of the street. Yeah,
33:41
they're great. Hey,
33:43
between you and me, it's just great
33:45
jumping off the skateboard and jumping back
33:47
on. Like the skateboard doesn't move. It's
33:49
pretty sweet. Also, the skateboard has no
33:51
wheels. No wheels. Yeah. But
33:54
you know what? Christmas time. I'm jumping up
33:56
and down. And he goes, hey! That's a
33:59
trick! But anyway,
34:01
he's a total teenager. Do you think the guy
34:03
who played Evan Hansen had something in his contract
34:05
or something? No, they just... He's
34:07
very good. He didn't have something in his contract,
34:09
he had something in his eyes. Yeah, a little
34:11
twinkle, a little teenage twinkle. No,
34:14
I think he has a great singing voice,
34:17
and it's musical. It totally was not what
34:19
I thought it was going to be about.
34:22
And it was... Were you watching
34:24
the whole Dear Evan Hansen? Yeah, I was
34:27
drinking, and then I started watching it. Well,
34:29
I'm in for a penny and for a pound with...
34:31
You thought that made the story better, that you were
34:33
drinking? Yeah. Hey
34:36
guys, it wasn't anything weird, I was drinking, I said
34:38
I should watch all of Dear Evan Hansen. Within the
34:40
first minute, I was like, what are the two things
34:42
they didn't know? The lead was being played
34:44
by a 30-year-old, and it was a musical. Didn't know that
34:46
sitting in the... You didn't really like musicals? Yeah, I love
34:48
them, but I didn't know it was a musical, so it
34:51
was very odd that they suddenly did a musical number. I
34:53
was like, ugh. So
34:55
there's a... They've turned mean
34:57
girls into a musical, and they turned
34:59
mean girls the musical into a movie. And
35:02
the trailer for it has no music in it. Oh,
35:04
wow. It is a musical. Yeah. People
35:07
are very confused. Oh, that
35:09
was stuck if you hated musicals. Didn't
35:13
they make the mean girl the protagonist now,
35:15
instead of the girl that Lindsay Lohan played?
35:17
Buddy, I don't know. I
35:19
didn't read the Wikipedia on
35:22
the musical. I
35:24
didn't think I liked musical movies that much, and
35:26
then I watched Tick Tick Boom a couple years
35:28
ago, and I really enjoyed that. Yeah. Not
35:31
enough to make me go, I'm going to watch every musical
35:33
that comes out, but enough to make me go, maybe I
35:35
don't dislike them as much as I thought. But
35:37
I don't know why I thought I disliked them, because I
35:39
like musicals in real life. Yeah. I
35:42
just thought I didn't want my movies to get musical. For
35:44
me, those were two different... Yeah, two Bridge 2 bar. Yeah.
35:48
That was right. Tick Tick Boom was good. So,
35:51
Golden Globes is the award
35:54
show that separates categories into
35:56
drama. Yeah, drama and comedy.
35:59
No, drama. and comedy
36:01
or musical. Comedy
36:03
or musical together. So it
36:05
feels weird to be like,
36:08
you know, Les Mis is competing
36:10
with Austin Powers. You
36:13
say Austin Powers? Wow.
36:16
Main world Austin Powers. Mike Myers is coming
36:18
up. Yeah, Mike Myers on the brain. The
36:22
Matilda musical movie came out last year, the
36:24
year before, that was really good. Yeah? Yeah,
36:27
I haven't seen it, but I like a movie musical.
36:30
Live stage version. I like a
36:32
soundtrack from, I like
36:34
the original cast recording. So never
36:37
been in one, never had
36:39
the chance to be enemies and not fishing,
36:41
but maybe throw some lines up there and
36:43
see what comes back. I have a terrible
36:45
voice and I can't really dance. You're
36:48
more of the guy who comes on and
36:50
does the Patter song. Yes, yes, yes,
36:52
yeah. Well,
36:55
these parts, things are ramping up, because
36:57
things are getting weird and I'm the
37:00
guy who lives over here in the
37:02
well. Here we go and I don't
37:04
know the plot. There's a
37:07
bunch of things going on over here. I just
37:09
lost the role today. I shouldn't
37:11
have told him about the auditions. Maybe
37:14
I'm gonna talk about him playing with no
37:16
plot. Yeah,
37:20
how old's your character on your
37:23
TV show? Same age as you? He's a
37:25
teenager. You should. Yeah. No,
37:30
he's a couple years younger than me. I'm 37, I think
37:32
he's 35. Okay.
37:35
So yeah, just gave me a couple years
37:38
of extra life, but they had to, I
37:40
got my sides are completely gray in my
37:42
hair. Dye my hair once a
37:44
week, every week on Friday. Oh yeah.
37:46
What's that I've liked? I've never dyed hair
37:48
at all. So what's the process? I have
37:50
no idea. They tried like four different dyes.
37:53
My gray hair really doesn't wanna be dyed.
37:56
Yeah, so they tried like before we went into production, they
37:58
were trying all these different types and one. and finally worked
38:00
and then we just did that for a
38:03
couple hours every week, like it was a project.
38:05
Then the more I did it, every week my
38:07
hair was like, okay, I don't mind this, and
38:10
it got easier. It like, got easier. It like,
38:12
got easier. Yeah, you gotta get into it. Do
38:14
you ever see shows or
38:16
movies where you're like, wow, they
38:18
had all this money, they had
38:20
the best people in the business and they just couldn't get
38:23
this guy's hair to look good. I
38:26
was really worried about that. I was
38:28
watching Blackberry. Jay
38:31
Bear, sounds like Gray Wing.
38:33
And the guy, the other
38:36
guy, Glen Harrington, his bald
38:38
cap with dark hair on
38:40
the sides. Do
38:42
you think it was a bald cap? I thought it was shaved. Yeah, well
38:44
either way. Like it looks off.
38:46
It's not, yeah, and like. He's playing
38:48
Mike Lazaridis, I think. Oh no, Lazaridis
38:51
is Jim Valcilly. Yeah, I'm from Waterloo,
38:53
so that whole era, I was living
38:55
there through it. Do you fall asleep,
38:57
you've mentioned falling asleep in movies. Yeah.
39:00
What point do you do a
39:02
lot? You stay awake at home. Oh God. Or
39:04
not the fighter, the killer, I was just exhausted.
39:06
But on an airplane, I'll fall asleep and that's
39:08
part of what I like about it. Because then
39:10
I come back to it and I start it
39:12
where I fell asleep. It's a whole thing that
39:14
I really enjoy. It's a ritual. I'm
39:17
the, your broadcaster,
39:19
the CBC, on
39:23
their app, CBC Gem, they have
39:26
broken Blackberry into
39:29
three 40 minute chunks and
39:31
it's three episodes. What? I
39:33
don't know why. I don't know how to release it
39:35
on TV. I know there was a slide up for
39:38
over there. Yeah, and so. That's insane. Why would they
39:40
do that? But it's good for me who falls asleep
39:42
40 minutes into a movie. They should like, yeah, with
39:44
the Irishman, it should have been like eight. I'm sure
39:46
you should put the psychology behind it because I bet
39:48
you it is something like they know people like binging
39:51
TV shows. And if you see this
39:53
long movie, it could be a deterrent where you're
39:55
like, ah, I'm gonna fall asleep soon. I don't
39:57
wanna watch a whole movie. They break it up
39:59
into three 40 minute installments. psychologically less daunting.
40:01
It's very it seems very old like
40:04
90s TV to be like yeah, we're gonna
40:06
We're gonna show you this movie over three
40:09
nights Is
40:12
it logical endpoint at the end of
40:14
each episode? I'm only after I'm only
40:16
finished one episode Yeah, it's uh, it
40:18
seems fine. Have you seen the
40:20
guy that who's directed it Rowan directed
40:23
it is also in it He's
40:25
the guy with the light longer Oh
40:27
the glasses goofball. Yeah, and he had
40:29
a show called Nirvana the band the
40:31
show. Oh, yeah Yeah,
40:34
well when I first moved to Toronto like
40:36
everyone was talking about Nirvana the band. It
40:38
was so funny Yeah, I didn't see much
40:40
of it to be honest with you his
40:43
He gave like a panel speech about
40:45
how you can get the
40:48
rights to brands and Songs
40:50
like that. There's kind of end runs you can
40:52
do if you have like a good lawyer So
40:55
in that movie, there's a bunch of like famous
40:57
songs. Oh, yeah Yeah, and like it won't be
40:59
like, you know pop soda. It'll be coke It'll
41:01
be everything like he clears it but he says
41:04
that if you have a fake thing it takes
41:06
you out of it Which I think it does.
41:08
Yeah, totally if somebody's eating a cereal that doesn't
41:10
exist. No. No. Yeah Yeah, unless it's a sci-fi
41:13
show where it's like the whole things about people
41:15
are eating the cereal that doesn't exist And
41:18
it takes them to a new planet They
41:21
were like firing on all cylinders content-wise Well,
41:25
it's over now. I have a plot. Well, I
41:27
was chomping on the cereal But
41:29
it didn't exist and I opened my mouth and I
41:31
was like, what is this? They
41:34
will superwarming it in the Hamilton style Now
41:39
DJ every time you're here is
41:41
we always gonna ask you and are
41:44
you ready for your answer What
41:46
is going on currently? What is
41:48
the news with your favorite singer
41:50
songwriter John Mayer? Yes, I Was
41:53
wondering I was like maybe they're done with the John
41:56
Mayer talk, but I'm happy you brought it up Yeah,
41:58
he wasn't in my Spotify rap He didn't make my
42:00
top five. Really? Which I called both of them. Tell
42:02
us about who was in your top five. I
42:04
don't even want to talk about it because I don't believe
42:07
in its validity. I think, could we listen to a lot
42:09
of Raffy this year? Mm-hmm. Oh, sure. With our little guy?
42:11
And Raffy didn't even make top five, so I'm like, something's
42:13
going on. Raffy, you're so cute. I don't
42:15
know. Is that his real last name? Yeah. Oh, really?
42:17
Oh, I didn't know that. Armenian? What was that last
42:20
name? I think he's Armenian. Yeah. Wow.
42:22
OK, cool. I didn't know that. He's
42:24
a man, though. That's his name on socials,
42:26
anyway. Oh, really? Yeah. He uses his last
42:28
name? Yeah. He's on social? Oh, yeah, he's
42:30
on social. Honestly, I wish 50-50 on whether
42:33
or not he was still alive. I
42:35
don't check in on him. I like his music, and I
42:37
don't need to know what's going on. I don't mean to
42:39
compliment him. Yeah, yeah. Does he live on Saltspring? He
42:41
does. Yeah. He lives on Saltspring Island. Really?
42:44
Yeah. He's Canadian? Yeah. I didn't
42:46
even know that. And he's like a
42:48
Canadian. He's an activist. He's been like
42:50
an activist his whole career. Like, very
42:52
separate from the kids' music, but. Activist
42:54
for what? Just a lot
42:56
of environmental causes and belugas. Disney
42:59
wanted to buy Baby Beluga and
43:01
turn it into a short film,
43:03
and he refused. He said, you
43:06
turned into 340 minutes. But
43:10
he wouldn't sell. He was like, man. Why did he
43:12
refuse? Because Disney's a giant, horrible
43:15
corporation that does all sorts of
43:17
convulsions. What corporation? Disney? Oh,
43:20
I didn't hear who you said, so. I
43:24
got to look into them. DJ
43:26
worthy. Wow. I hear it again. Wow. I love him
43:28
even more. I just love to. Because I've never listened
43:30
to kids' music too much, and I was like a
43:32
little reluctant, where I was like, oh, god, am I
43:34
going to be here? You didn't listen to kids' music
43:36
before you had a kid? Only
43:39
when I drank. Yeah,
43:42
yeah. That's how you can enjoy it,
43:44
yeah. Yeah, I love
43:46
Raffy. But he didn't make my top five. Neither
43:48
did John Mayer. But you know what's really
43:50
cool about John Mayer? I'm going to bring it back
43:52
to the man of the hour. Please. The man of
43:55
several hours. The man of the last 20
43:57
years. His longevity off the track. But. He
44:00
was in the Grateful Dead, you know, Dead and
44:02
Cope for nine years. He would join them in...
44:04
Nine years! Yeah, or maybe eight. I think he
44:06
joined in 2015 and they officially just ended it.
44:08
They ended it? Oh, okay. Yeah, but
44:11
he was like, when he came on, it was like a
44:13
novelty and people were like, oh, he's like gonna try to
44:15
make it his own thing. Like a lot of the Deadheads
44:17
were upset. They weren't
44:19
like, bogarting their joints over it.
44:21
Yeah. Oh yeah. But...
44:24
Finger finger finger! Finger finger finger! Finger finger! What
44:27
do you call it? What is it like hippies
44:29
playing for like being stressed out about it? I
44:32
think that's pretty good. Yeah, bogarting. Yeah,
44:34
bogarting. Sure, yeah. Um,
44:36
but he was there for the right reason. Spiritually
44:39
he just wanted to be part of something bigger
44:41
than himself. Yeah, is he like the new Jerry?
44:43
Was he the new Jerry? Well,
44:45
I mean, Jerry was one of the original guys, right?
44:47
Yeah. So you can never be the new Jerry, but...
44:50
You gotta be the new Jerry. You know, there
44:52
were a lot of shirts. People wear shirts that
44:54
say like queer for wear, like Bob Weir. And
44:57
so a lot of people have queer for
44:59
wear shirts, among other shirts. But...
45:02
Are they actually queer or are they just saying
45:04
that... Just for wear. Okay. Um,
45:07
they're straight otherwise, but... I guess
45:09
the spectrum is all tie-dyed at this point. But
45:12
then people started wearing shirts that said gay or
45:14
for mare. Oh, okay. Yeah, they
45:16
really accepted... Okay, I'm going to point
45:18
everyone at each other. But
45:20
yeah, he released a new album last year. I
45:22
think I might have talked about that one already
45:24
with you guys, because I remember we listened to
45:26
New Light. But that wasn't last year. That was
45:28
years ago at this point. Um,
45:31
oh, you know when I talked to you, he just had
45:33
New Light out as a single, but Sob Rock hadn't come
45:35
out yet, the album. Okay. Which
45:37
is like a throwback kind of 80s album and
45:39
it's great. I'm gonna see you in a new
45:42
light. Yeah. It's not bad.
45:44
Yeah? Oh, it's great. The whole album's
45:46
great. He's got a song on it that is called
45:48
Why You No Love Me. Okay,
45:50
canceling this guy as well. It's
45:53
one of those songs where you're like, oh, why do you have to
45:55
do that? And then it gets stuck in your head. And
45:57
I'm like, why you no love me? I see why you
45:59
did it. because I wouldn't remember if it was called, Why Don't
46:01
You Love Me? Right, yeah. Why
46:04
Don't You Love Me? Boring. Why
46:06
You No Love Me? Vaguely racist almost. Is
46:08
it? Not even vaguely,
46:10
I think. Does he use the
46:12
letter Y for Y? No,
46:14
written out fully correct. Yeah. He
46:18
doesn't want to confuse what the joke
46:20
is. It's not a grammatical thing. It's
46:22
pure racism. Yeah. Yeah,
46:26
but it's that song in brackets, racist
46:29
version. He
46:32
rerecorded it because somebody else was making all the
46:34
money off his racist song. I've
46:37
seen people wearing shirts that actually say racist for
46:39
mayor. And I'm like, I don't get it. Oh,
46:41
no. I
46:44
don't know if I told you
46:46
this before, but a few years ago, I was at
46:48
a comedy store doing a roast battle on
46:51
the stage, and I hate roast battles, I just
46:53
did it to scare myself. But I found out
46:55
after that John Mayer was in the audience watching.
46:57
Wow, shit. I was just calling for John Mayer.
46:59
But I didn't get to see him. Wow, you
47:01
got to pay him back for
47:04
all that entertainment over the years. You got
47:06
to give him a little something. It's true.
47:08
And you know, in the show, we were gonna have an ongoing
47:10
thing where DJ and the show, cause that's my name and one
47:12
more time as well. Right. And did you
47:15
do that cause you couldn't remember your actor name? Well,
47:18
I don't know how to act. So I thought that would
47:20
give me a little bit of a cushion, being like, I'm
47:22
not acting. But. A
47:25
long tradition of comedians. Yeah, I don't
47:27
break as much as Jerry did in
47:29
Seinfeld, but even when you watch
47:32
Seinfeld now, I don't even mind when he
47:34
breaks. No, I don't even notice. It's charming. Yeah.
47:37
But Jimmy Fallon breaking an SNL
47:40
could be not charming at times. Right.
47:42
Cause he was like, ruined scenes. Because he wanted to let you
47:45
know how much fun he was having. He
47:47
does have a lot of fun, it seems. Or
47:49
maybe he's just pretending it's not fun at all.
47:51
But I think even being back there to pretending,
47:53
you've got a skill. Yeah. Cause
47:56
you know, I did the Tonight Show and Fallon came by and hung
47:58
out with me and my friend for like 10 days. minute before
48:00
the show where you're like can't you make
48:02
me think of it dude we're
48:04
in there in a bad mood he comes
48:06
in smile come on dude no he was
48:08
super nice like so nice and I had
48:10
that thought I was like even if he's
48:13
faking it still making me feel like a
48:15
million bucks here like beyond like that all
48:17
day long and then all those reports
48:19
came out that he was actually a huge asshole
48:21
yeah I'm impossible he was so nice for those
48:23
10 minutes there's so many
48:25
reports about people being assholes I forget
48:27
yeah yeah that one's like one of
48:29
those one not to like nullify whatever
48:32
one was saying but it's like I
48:35
don't know there was a day where
48:37
you just expected celebrities to be asshole
48:39
like Carson notorious crick yeah I forget
48:42
Jimmy Fallon wasn't was exactly it was
48:44
an asshole or was he drunk yeah
48:47
I think both and he like
48:49
did a real deal apology
48:52
and said like I this is
48:54
unacceptable and which you know a
48:56
lot of people like well I'm sorry you got offended
48:58
but I promise I won't give you drunk
49:10
at work okay but you're doing beer
49:12
pong in the apology but
49:14
it's so fun for rating my
49:16
love language yeah no he uh
49:19
well have we get under the Fallon thing we're
49:21
talking about them right before that did I have
49:23
a point for your name there was a DJ
49:26
in the show oh yeah how do
49:28
we get to that I don't remember
49:30
what I was talking about um that's
49:32
fine it's fine don't worry about it
49:34
is a John Mayer um David's gonna
49:36
view I was watching the John Mayer
49:38
video for your body
49:41
is a wonderland mm-hmm and I was like oh the
49:43
girl in this video is so pretty and I
49:45
looked her up and she's also in the video
49:47
for Eve sixes promise no
49:50
I will follow the prize I
50:00
just double-check she's pretty in that video as well.
50:02
She's wearing roller skates. I
50:08
can't remember what she looked like, but I do remember finding
50:11
the girl pretty in both of those videos. So that's... So
50:13
it was one of these video
50:15
Vixens. Oh yeah. Yeah,
50:19
I feel like the early 2000s was a good
50:21
time for video Vixens. Yeah. Tell me what you
50:23
were gonna say. I
50:25
just lost it again. No, nah. Dave,
50:27
what's going on with you, man? Okay,
50:29
well today... What? Oh,
50:32
well we're in the... So we are in
50:34
mid-December. I've been getting my
50:36
holly on, my jolly on. Get your
50:38
jollies off. Yeah, I'm getting my rocks
50:40
off. And
50:44
did my annual thing I
50:46
like to do, which is make
50:48
a big gingerbread house. Oh
50:51
yes. Gingerbread is my number
50:53
one Christmas treat. Yeah.
50:55
I like a gingerbread house. I like
50:57
a gingerbread man. I
50:59
like gingerbread who have frosting on it. Do
51:01
you... I forget, do you freestyle or do
51:03
you get a kit? Get a
51:05
kit. Go to the Swiss bakery, get
51:09
their kit, comes in a little pizza box. Nice.
51:12
I give you everything you need.
51:14
What I didn't do was refrigerate
51:17
the icing, frosting stuff.
51:20
And so... Like
51:25
I should have refrigerated it so that when I
51:27
stuck everything together, it wasn't very
51:29
warm. Right. Yeah. And so I had
51:31
to like use a bunch of books
51:35
to make sure the house didn't fall apart.
51:37
How big is the house? The house is...
51:39
Well, it fits in a pizza box. So
51:41
no bigger than a pizza box.
51:43
About yea big. Okay. Yeah. Like
51:45
a foot high. Yeah. A
51:48
foot and a half maybe with a roof. Nice. Does
51:51
it come with candies as well? Or you...
51:54
It comes with candies, it comes with Smarties. Okay. It
51:57
comes with these Watermelon Gummies, which... I'm
51:59
not a fan of. It comes with
52:01
these peach rings, which I'm not a
52:03
fan of. Watermelon gummies on the new
52:05
bed? They're just not festive. Yeah. And
52:07
the peach rings, they
52:10
change the flavor of everything to
52:12
peachy. So even though, even
52:14
if I take them off and I still eat the
52:16
gingerbread, it's just still peachy. Yeah. Oh,
52:18
peachy. So
52:21
it stayed up? Oh,
52:23
it stayed up. Okay, good. Good, good, good. But only
52:25
for 20 minutes before I
52:27
ate it. Yeah. The thing is, we take a
52:29
picture. Like, every year
52:32
we... This is a family tradition
52:34
I'm letting you guys know. Okay, here we go. So every
52:37
year we have a calendar made
52:39
and we keep it in the kitchen. And
52:41
I just do it at London
52:43
Drugs and I upload a
52:46
bunch of photos. And then all year
52:48
long, we get our own photos
52:50
on the calendar. But every year
52:53
at Christmas in the December month,
52:55
it's called... We
53:02
use the same kind of picture from
53:04
the year previous, which is my
53:07
daughter's sitting
53:09
next to the gingerbread house I made. Okay. And
53:12
they replicate the same pose
53:14
every year and we've managed to get the
53:16
previous year's calendar in the background. Oh,
53:19
this is fun. Yeah. What's that
53:21
called, that art, where you see the
53:23
thing behind the thing? Something effect. That's
53:25
not Escher, is it? No, no. It's
53:27
named after... It's like the Drost effect,
53:30
which is a package that
53:32
had like... It's basically... Who's
53:34
that woman on the butter?
53:38
The Land O' Lakes. Land O' Lakes. And she's holding a
53:40
Land O' Lakes package with her on it. Right. Anyway,
53:43
so... Now, do you have any
53:46
Christmas-like traditions? You started your
53:48
own Christmas vision or you had a dude
53:50
with your family, anything like that? No.
53:52
By the way, I was going to say, in
53:54
the show, we were going to make DJ in
53:56
the show with John Mayer a fan. Oh, really?
53:58
We ended up going a different direction. Oh, I
54:00
can't wait. Very close to being a John Mayer.
54:02
When you say a different direction, is there... If
54:05
somebody else had a big band, we went somewhere
54:07
else instead of John Mayer, but I'll
54:10
save that for you. You got to
54:12
tune in to One More Time. Yeah,
54:14
yeah, yeah. The BBC jam broken into
54:16
58 four-minute episodes. Who's
54:19
the poor man's John Mayer that you could
54:21
have fired? Poor man's John
54:23
Mayer. Ooh, that's a good question. I mean, I don't want to
54:25
say Ed Sheeran. Is it Ed Sheeran? No way, man. Ed
54:28
Sheeran is the richest man in the...
54:30
I know. In
54:33
terms of Christmas tradition, no, but I
54:35
would love if John Mayer made a Christmas album because
54:38
that would be my new... That'll happen. That'll
54:40
happen. It's got to happen. From a marketing and
54:42
money perspective, there's so much money that you're making
54:44
a Christmas album. But growing
54:46
up, we always read twice a night
54:48
before Christmas before. Classic. I'd like
54:50
to continue that with my son. Nice. He
54:53
loves reading right now, so we didn't do it last... No,
54:55
we did read it to him last year, so we'll do
54:57
it this year. We don't even have a Christmas tree up,
54:59
and we're going home to Canada soon, so our house
55:02
doesn't feel too festive right now. And we're in
55:04
California. There's no snow or anything. It's
55:07
weird, you know, maybe if you wish, I don't know.
55:11
Maybe if you put a tree up. Yeah, yeah,
55:13
yeah. But you people put reindeers on their roof
55:15
and stuff in LA, and it
55:17
doesn't feel right, but there's no way they could survive
55:19
in this climb. Fair enough. Yeah. I
55:22
just heard from Climate to Climb. Was that okay? You
55:24
can say Climb right now. Yeah, I hear that. I've heard
55:26
that used. I think it's like a
55:28
different word, like isle and island. Are they different words?
55:31
Well, it's not... Isle is its own
55:33
word, but it's not just like... But
55:35
an isle is an island, right? Yeah, I think
55:37
so, but it's not like calling
55:39
7-Eleven-sev. But it's... I
55:42
know in the Gilligan Island theme song, they
55:44
say Gilligan's Isle. Yeah, here in Gilligan's Isle.
55:46
Yeah. It's called... They crash
55:49
down on the shore of this deserted,
55:52
tragic land. You're
55:55
never going to be in a musical. You don't
55:58
even know the lyrics to the Gilligan... Gilligan
56:00
the musical. So
56:03
that's one thing is we did that
56:06
and today I did
56:08
something else, something I like to do before Christmas
56:10
is I crossed the border. Go
56:13
to Taco Bell. I did go to Taco Bell. You've got
56:16
to run for the border and you're going to do it.
56:18
Although I did. So
56:22
today I drove to Bellingham, Washington and
56:24
I went to Trader Joe's. I
56:27
went to Target, got some stocking stuffers,
56:29
got some little chips and dips and
56:31
things. Picked up some packages
56:33
from our mailbox and I have something.
56:36
Now I know it's been a couple weeks since we
56:38
did presents on the show but I have something for Graham.
56:41
What? Oh this
56:43
is exciting. Because I went to Trader Joe's
56:45
I got you this. Peppermint bar. Oh my
56:47
god. Oh my god. I was just at
56:49
the drug store and I was like man
56:51
nobody sells fucking. Well Abby went
56:54
to Williams Sonoma. Abby was walking by Williams
56:56
Sonoma today and they had a sign saying
56:58
try our famous peppermint bark and she went inside and it
57:00
was $70. Well
57:04
candy came for ages you know now with
57:06
the climate tax and all those guys. Climate
57:09
tax? Yeah, climate tax. Climate tax.
57:12
Climate tax. You a fan at
57:15
all? Peppermint bark? Yeah I do
57:17
really like peppermint bark. Alright well let's look
57:19
back and maybe open it. It's hard to
57:21
get. I've never really realized. Well I know
57:23
my mom used to make it and
57:26
I don't think it needs to be $70. What
57:31
do you think about things like gingerbread
57:33
and maybe peppermint bark but where they
57:35
are so seasonal where you associate them
57:37
with a season do you feel like
57:40
the makers of gingerbread kind of resent
57:42
that they wish you would eat it more than you
57:44
might as well? I wonder because
57:46
it's like I and I
57:48
love gingerbread. Did I mention that before? He
57:51
loves it. But I do not want it.
57:54
I don't want it on December 26th. Yeah.
57:57
Yeah I feel like the one product that
57:59
was like we're gonna go into the
58:01
other seasons with mini eggs. Remember
58:04
you only get Cadbury eggs and
58:06
mini eggs around. But like the,
58:08
I feel like there's a creep
58:10
of pumpkin spice earlier
58:13
and earlier. Yeah, yeah. Like
58:15
maybe even September. That's
58:18
too early. Is there anything
58:20
that comes out just in the summer? I feel like you're drinking
58:22
a lot of Kool-Aid in the summer. I
58:24
don't know that you're having Kool-Aid in
58:26
the fall. Are those like red, white,
58:28
and blue Popsicles? Yes. Can you imagine
58:30
having one of those in December? No
58:32
way Jose. And the other thing I
58:34
got for you today, because I
58:37
think we talked about it recently. I don't
58:39
know if it was on air or off
58:41
air, but Nerds Rope. Nerds
58:43
Rope. Okay, we were talking about this and
58:45
I'd never heard of this before. I've never
58:48
heard of Nerds Rope. It's a licorice encrusted
58:50
with Nerds. Should we crack it open?
58:52
Should we all have? Yeah, sure. Have some
58:54
Nerds Rope? I've been around a long time. Okay.
58:57
What do you know, Nerds, right? Oh yeah, I
59:00
love Nerds, but I didn't, I've never heard of
59:02
Nerds Rope. Okay. I'll take
59:04
a bit. This is seasonal Nerds Rope. I
59:07
also like, I haven't had any eggnog
59:09
yet, and I feel like at this point it's maybe
59:11
too late. You can have a
59:13
sip. I know, but you can't go to the store
59:15
and buy a sip. Hehehe. This
59:19
is bad podcasting. This is good, this
59:22
is good. Oh boy.
59:24
Yeah. My mouth
59:26
is alive. I haven't had Nerds in so long, and
59:28
it's just like, oh yeah. I
59:31
haven't had Nerds in so long either. Get
59:34
ready to transport back to you being a
59:37
teenager in Adaland. Oh yeah. Holy
59:39
cow. Good one, Dave. Wow,
59:44
that's cool. Yeah. They're
59:47
doing great things with me. What made you watch
59:50
your body as a Wonderland? No,
59:52
I, um, there's
59:54
a channel that
59:56
shows all the videos. Mmm. And
59:59
I, uh, Turner Classic Videos. TCV.
1:00:04
But there's actually a couple because there's one
1:00:06
on our cable package. And then
1:00:08
I noticed there's one on just like if our
1:00:11
Samsung TV is plugged into the internet, then
1:00:15
you can watch a few weeks
1:00:17
ago, I guess was talking about it. But they'll
1:00:19
just have a channel that's all 21 Jump
1:00:22
Street and then they'll have a channel that's all 90s music
1:00:25
videos. I could watch a
1:00:27
lot of 90s music videos. I could really zone in
1:00:29
on that. I would stay in
1:00:31
on a Friday night and watch too much music, Top
1:00:33
30, and then I would watch it again Saturday morning.
1:00:36
Oh man. Should it be on Friday night? It was the Coca
1:00:38
Cola countdown. Then
1:00:40
Electric Circus. Call
1:00:43
asleep to Electric Circus. Did
1:00:46
you like your body as a
1:00:48
Wonderland when you watched it? It's
1:00:54
a lot of stuff in bed, isn't it? Yeah,
1:00:56
she's swimming in a deep sea of
1:00:58
blankets. Too hot for me.
1:01:02
I liked her. Do you know what's
1:01:04
funny is like out of all the songs, did
1:01:06
you guys see the Barbie movie? Yeah. I
1:01:09
was very surprised that Ken sang... Matchless
1:01:12
Night. What
1:01:14
was it by Matt? Push. Push. Push.
1:01:18
I want to push you around. I would have thought
1:01:20
it was going to be Maybe Your Body Is Wonderland
1:01:22
or Crash Into Me by Dave Matthews. That's one of
1:01:24
the classic bros on guitar type thing, but
1:01:26
Push was pretty great. Yeah, it was pretty great.
1:01:28
Crash into me. It's kind of hard. Also,
1:01:31
it's going to be one of those things that like kids
1:01:33
who watch it, that's what they're going to associate that song with
1:01:35
for their whole life. That and Closer
1:01:37
to Find, the one with the thing when
1:01:40
she's driving. That's
1:01:42
going to be like Bohemian Rash City was in
1:01:44
Wayne's World and that's the first time I've ever
1:01:46
heard of that. Same. I can't
1:01:48
hear it without thinking of William and Garth. First time
1:01:50
I ever heard Faith was by Limp Bizkit, not by
1:01:52
George Michael. Whoa. Okay.
1:01:55
And then I heard George Michael's. I was like, man,
1:01:57
he's really butchering this song. When are you going to
1:01:59
start singing? agreement. Limp
1:02:02
Bizkit, another band who rhymes Tender with Heart
1:02:04
in a Blender. They did?
1:02:06
Yeah. Nice. Wow. They
1:02:09
put my Tender Heart in a Blender and stay
1:02:11
less a render. Which song is that? Nookie? Oh
1:02:14
shit. Okay. Eve 6 and
1:02:16
Limp Bizkit. Yeah. It was a time in our
1:02:18
lives when we were rhyming Tender with Heart in a
1:02:20
Blender. Reter to
1:02:22
Lender. Oh, now
1:02:25
they did Hey Big Spender. Big Biz Bender. Yeah,
1:02:28
most of the best Tenders. We
1:02:31
surrender. So yeah, I spent
1:02:34
a day going to stores in America. So
1:02:36
I had Eagle on the highway. What the
1:02:38
hell? This is like epic. Yeah, I was
1:02:41
like on the highway? Well, he's hitching a
1:02:43
ride. He or she. Weren't
1:02:46
they them? I don't know what his Eagle
1:02:48
pronouns landed on a lamp post next to
1:02:50
the highway. And I saw it from
1:02:52
far away and I was like is that an
1:02:55
Eagle? Yeah, Bald
1:02:57
Eagle. Yeah, there you go. Are
1:03:00
there? Name
1:03:02
another one. You wouldn't even...
1:03:04
Well, I mean, Bald Eagles are the
1:03:06
preeminent ones. They wouldn't say bald if
1:03:08
they were the only ones. Legal Eagles.
1:03:12
Mohawk Eagle. All
1:03:14
the different haircuts. Yeah. That's
1:03:16
how they distinguish all the
1:03:18
Eagles. Balding
1:03:21
Eagle. Balding Eagle. Poor,
1:03:24
poor guys. But
1:03:26
yeah. That's pretty cool. Seeing an Eagle in
1:03:28
real life is pretty majestic. Oh, I see
1:03:30
them all the time. Do you?
1:03:32
Yeah. Well, I see them... When you go up that way,
1:03:34
I guess. Yeah. I see
1:03:37
them... And then when I visit Abby's parents,
1:03:39
there's a pair that are yelling
1:03:42
at each other all day long. Abby's
1:03:45
parents call them the Bickersons. I
1:03:48
love it. But
1:03:51
a lot of people say that Eagle. Yeah. No, I
1:03:53
love if I see an Eagle, if I see like
1:03:56
a hawk. Always like super
1:03:58
interested in Like any kind
1:04:00
of an owl, I'll go nuts to
1:04:02
see an owl. Quite a few
1:04:04
herons, man, I'm not into them. Storks. If
1:04:07
I see a stork. I don't know if I've seen
1:04:09
a stork. Or a pelican? Man, oh man. Oh, toppers.
1:04:12
We were just in Costa Rica a couple months
1:04:14
ago and saw huge pelicans and sloths. I know
1:04:16
that's not a bird bird. No, but yeah. I've
1:04:18
seen sloths in my life. Animals, man, when you see one
1:04:20
you haven't seen in real life, you're like, oh,
1:04:23
you're real. Like I've seen them
1:04:25
on TV and stuff. You're like, damn, that's a sloth. Yeah.
1:04:28
I don't know. When we get to
1:04:30
Calgary, we always go to the zoo. And
1:04:33
seeing a hippo up close, you're like, oh,
1:04:35
this is a real thing. It's not just
1:04:38
a hungry hungry, the most thing is a
1:04:40
real thing. It's not part of the zoodles.
1:04:43
We have peacocks in our neighborhood in Altadena.
1:04:46
Really? I don't know why. They're not in people's
1:04:48
backyard or anything. They're walking around the street. I
1:04:51
don't know. Wow. When
1:04:53
they were let loose. But yeah, my wife just sent
1:04:55
me a picture today of my son walking up to
1:04:57
a peacock. Wow. We're
1:05:00
just in our neighborhood. Getting his eyes poked and pricked out. That's
1:05:04
my son just looking at
1:05:06
a peacock in our neighborhood.
1:05:08
Yeah. Adorable. They're
1:05:11
both about the same size. Yeah.
1:05:14
Yeah. Are there any new animals? Oh,
1:05:16
I mean, they're finding new ones all the time. Some kind of
1:05:19
like little newt or something like that. I feel like fish. I
1:05:22
feel like capybaras have become... Oh,
1:05:24
they're the hot road. They're like...
1:05:26
I hadn't heard about them 15 years ago
1:05:29
and now they're number one big rodent. Yeah.
1:05:32
It's the baby Yoda of rodents. Absolutely.
1:05:34
Yeah. So yeah, that's what's
1:05:36
going on with me, my friend. Yeah. That's
1:05:39
fantastic. Having a happy new year. Thank you
1:05:41
for Peppermint Bark and this nerd rope. If you
1:05:43
haven't tried it, folks. It's a revelation. Yeah.
1:05:46
Get ready to go back and back. I got so many
1:05:49
stalking stuffers at this target. Nice. And I was
1:05:51
like, gotta get two of everything for the kids.
1:05:54
I just need one nerd rope for my buddy. Thanks,
1:05:56
buddy. What
1:06:00
was I gonna say? What's
1:06:02
going on with you and everything? Okay,
1:06:05
nothing. Absolutely nothing. One
1:06:08
thing that I've, I watch horror movies
1:06:10
all the time. It could become like
1:06:12
a huge horror movie fan. Oh yeah?
1:06:14
Wasn't before the pandemic and just
1:06:16
started watching them and now like, I watch
1:06:18
probably like three or four a week. Whoa,
1:06:20
okay, nice. But a lot of them blend
1:06:23
in. If it's like a haunted house,
1:06:25
they're kind of all the same. Possession
1:06:27
movies are all the same. So then when
1:06:29
you see one that really sticks out, you're like,
1:06:31
oh shit. I watched one last night called Talk
1:06:33
to Me. Oh, that's scary.
1:06:36
Oh boy, oh boy. Talk to me.
1:06:38
Is it new? I
1:06:40
think it's from last year, but it's on
1:06:42
Netflix now. Talk to me. Yeah. I
1:06:45
haven't seen a good horror movie in a while. Well, buckle up.
1:06:47
Talk to me? Yeah, I've heard a lot about this. Well, I
1:06:49
mean, I've heard a lot of people say it's good, but I
1:06:51
don't. Yeah. It takes a lot for
1:06:53
me to watch a horror movie. Yeah, it's not
1:06:55
entry level. Can you tell me the
1:06:57
premise? It's a thing. It's kind
1:06:59
of based around social media a bit.
1:07:03
There's like a little statue of a hand, and
1:07:05
you connect your hand to it. It's like a
1:07:08
cereal. You're eating a cereal that doesn't exist. And
1:07:12
that guy comes out into the little pad
1:07:14
or something. You
1:07:16
hold it in the hand, you say, talk
1:07:19
to me, and a ghost appears. And
1:07:21
then everybody films this person
1:07:23
like flipping out, and it's like a
1:07:25
social media trend. So like the
1:07:27
person gets possessed. Is there only one of this
1:07:29
hand in the world? Yeah,
1:07:32
I guess. I didn't question it, but maybe there
1:07:34
are multiple hands. Okay. Yeah. But
1:07:37
it becomes like a social media craze. But
1:07:39
then somebody doesn't follow the
1:07:41
rules, and that's when shit
1:07:44
goes crazy. Okay, I'm going to check
1:07:46
that out. Yeah. I'll fall
1:07:48
asleep for that next. You'll fall asleep to it, but
1:07:50
you know what? I'm just breaking up a horror movie
1:07:52
that chunks would be the craziest thing. Because
1:07:55
the first half hour you were like, oh, this is
1:07:57
a nice family movie. Everybody seems to be having a
1:07:59
good time. Didn't talk to me? No, just
1:08:01
in general. Oh, I love when
1:08:03
a horror movie takes its time before it gets crazy
1:08:05
because you actually get connected to the people. This is
1:08:08
like that. They do that? Yeah.
1:08:10
Yeah, because if it starts out right away about you crazy, like
1:08:12
cool, jump scares are awesome, but I want to like feel connected
1:08:14
to people before they meet their gruesome end, you know? But
1:08:17
also similar to Dear Hanson, I didn't know
1:08:19
until I started watching it, Australian. Oh yeah.
1:08:22
Oh yeah. I know. Made by
1:08:24
those guys who are really big on, I read
1:08:26
about the guys. The guys. The one? Yeah. The
1:08:29
one with the videos. Oh, that's cool. It's
1:08:31
a good movie? It's great. I've
1:08:33
heard good things about Barbarian too. Yeah, that's
1:08:36
good. That looks good. Yeah. You've
1:08:38
seen it? I see like one a year that
1:08:40
was the one I saw. I haven't seen a scary movie in
1:08:42
so long. Talk to me as
1:08:44
the one you'd recommend. Well, if you haven't seen
1:08:46
Barbarian, that would be my ultimate recommend. Yeah? Okay.
1:08:49
What about the one with Ethan Hawke about the black phone
1:08:51
or something? Called the black phone. That's the black
1:08:53
phone. Yeah. And that was okay.
1:08:55
That one was all right. Okay, I'll do it. Oh,
1:08:58
maybe Barbarian's an exception. But I was
1:09:00
like, if I know the actors in
1:09:03
this movie, it's not as good. Yeah,
1:09:05
that's true. Having unknown actors is key
1:09:08
because then you're like, this is actually happening to somebody. Yeah.
1:09:12
Yeah. If it's happening to- Bill Scarr's
1:09:14
left. But yeah.
1:09:20
Super spooky movie. That's a recommend for
1:09:22
anybody out there if you like a
1:09:24
little spooky movie at Christmas. Well,
1:09:27
it's the January 2nd, so- Start
1:09:30
your new era, you're off right. Yeah. You
1:09:33
made a resolution to yourself to scare yourself. Do things that
1:09:35
scare you. Which is easier to
1:09:37
do when you just watch horror movies. I
1:09:40
was talking to someone about how we
1:09:43
were having a really nice weather in November and
1:09:49
the rain started coming in December and this person
1:09:51
was like, yeah, but pretty
1:09:53
soon it'll be December 21st and then
1:09:55
the days get longer. And I
1:09:58
was like, no, you still have to live through-
1:10:00
winter. It's not like on the
1:10:02
21st it just completely turns over. Yeah,
1:10:07
no, that's the start of winter,
1:10:09
the sad time. Oh boy, yeah.
1:10:11
And it's like, it gets
1:10:14
plenty gloomy around here. You live in LA, so
1:10:16
you're just, you cruise through winter.
1:10:19
But it's a weird feeling too. You're right, we
1:10:21
do cruise through winter, but something about the seasons,
1:10:23
I don't mean to be cliche, but it is
1:10:25
nice to go through that emotional arc,
1:10:27
don't you think? Depression in the winter. Yeah, emotional
1:10:30
arc, depression. I'm saying that as a guy who
1:10:32
doesn't have to deal with it, so maybe I'm
1:10:34
wrong, but I feel the same way I felt
1:10:36
about playing against sports now that I'm not living
1:10:38
through the seasonal effects. And I'm like, I think
1:10:40
it was actually really nice to feel that. Yeah,
1:10:43
because you watch a Hallmark movie and you're like,
1:10:45
well, it does seem, it's charming to go to
1:10:47
a small town and, oh bad, can
1:10:49
you magically go to a small town? It's not too
1:10:52
bad here, is it, man? It's like rain. Rain, rain.
1:10:54
It gets gloomy. Yeah. It's
1:10:56
a big deal to deal with freezing cold or you
1:10:58
get a little bit of snow here and
1:11:00
there, shuts down the
1:11:02
city. Yeah, maybe you get one week of
1:11:04
deep freeze a year where it's like minus
1:11:07
five for a week. Yeah, and people lose
1:11:09
their mind, but oh, the tobogganing that gets
1:11:11
done in that week. Oh, the tobogganing. Oh
1:11:14
my God, I
1:11:16
was totally going to change the subject.
1:11:19
I was going to go back.
1:11:21
I'm still going to do it. Yeah, yeah,
1:11:24
go ahead. Sorry, just remembering, in
1:11:26
Vancouver, we don't have Play It Again Sports. Oh,
1:11:29
what's it called? Well, we have sports
1:11:32
junkies and we have
1:11:34
cheapskates. Cheapskates. And cheapskates became
1:11:38
like a mini empire.
1:11:40
This secondhand sporting goods
1:11:42
store was, there's
1:11:46
still like maybe two locations, but it
1:11:48
took up the entire, they started cheapskates too. And
1:11:51
then there was like an all golf cheapskates, like
1:11:53
a block away. And it was like... You
1:11:55
didn't go to cheapskate too though, did you? I would go to
1:11:58
whatever. You don't like people. Yeah, you don't like people. But
1:12:00
it's cheapskate's T-O-O. Oh,
1:12:02
okay. Why are you no cheapskate?
1:12:06
And when I was a kid,
1:12:08
because it was, what do
1:12:10
they call it when you, consignment.
1:12:13
And there was like, so you, the people
1:12:15
who brought in their old
1:12:18
stuff, you would, like, you'd
1:12:20
get however much money if they sold it right away, but
1:12:22
you'd get less money if it sat on the shelf for
1:12:24
a while. And
1:12:26
when you went to the store, you would
1:12:28
see, like, oh, this, you know, pair of skates is
1:12:31
50 bucks. But
1:12:33
on January 2nd, it's 40 bucks. And
1:12:36
then on January 15th, it's 30. And
1:12:38
I had friends who would go in and, like, see something
1:12:41
they wanted and hide it. I was just going to say,
1:12:43
I've done that at vintage shops where
1:12:45
it's like, I don't, I don't
1:12:47
have the money right now, but if I just
1:12:49
wait two weeks and I get paid, I can
1:12:51
come back. Is this going to be a plot
1:12:53
point in season two? I mean, maybe it's a
1:12:55
plot point in season one. Oh, yeah, maybe
1:12:58
there really is. When
1:13:00
not John Mayer shows up. My
1:13:03
dream is for the show to get so big
1:13:06
that John Mayer does want to show up. Well,
1:13:08
he's already seen you. And so, you know,
1:13:10
you have a history. So
1:13:12
you're that guy who did that roast. You
1:13:14
know what's crazy is Tony Hinchcliffe is like
1:13:17
one of the, he's the creator of Kill Tony
1:13:20
and this big thing that's in Austin now, but he
1:13:22
started it at the comedy store. He was a judge
1:13:25
on the roast battle that I was on and I
1:13:27
just ran into him in Austin last week and I
1:13:29
don't know him, but I was a friend of mine
1:13:31
introduced us and I was like, you were actually a
1:13:33
judge when I was on roast battle five
1:13:36
or six years ago. And he remembered the
1:13:38
insult, he said to me when I
1:13:40
was on stage. What was it? Oh, he said
1:13:43
something about this robot. This
1:13:46
robot really knows how to insult people or something.
1:13:48
Like I said, I had a robotic voice, which
1:13:50
is crazy because one of my clips online with
1:13:53
Don't Tell Comedy, the top comment with
1:13:55
three thousand likes is somebody saying robot
1:13:57
man out here spitting facts. So
1:14:00
multiple people have been shouting. So rude.
1:14:04
Yeah, now my wife will just say that to me
1:14:06
sometimes if I'm droning on. She's like, robot man, I'd
1:14:08
hear spit in fact. But yeah,
1:14:10
so apparently I sound like a robot. But Tony Hintcliffe
1:14:12
remembered he said that to me like five or six
1:14:14
years ago. Did he remember that John Mayer was there?
1:14:17
Yeah, that was the same one. But did he
1:14:20
remember that? I didn't ask him. It
1:14:22
doesn't come up in every conversation. I
1:14:25
didn't ask him about John Mayer. He was
1:14:27
too heated about the robot. And
1:14:30
so yeah, it's like a burn that
1:14:32
kept going. It turned into a whole
1:14:34
blaze. Now your
1:14:36
wife is burning you. It's weird because I kind
1:14:38
of am a robot with the hearing aids. Do
1:14:40
you know what I'm in? Like I'm kind of
1:14:43
cyborg-like. Yeah, you're a cyborg. So it's like they're
1:14:45
not even wrong. I am kind of
1:14:47
a robot. But you're not a robot. You're a cyborg. That's
1:14:50
a robot's a robot. Thank you. And right
1:14:52
through your eyes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You
1:14:55
will forever be that way. Don't
1:14:57
you worry about that going away. Do
1:15:00
you guys want to do some overhurds? Sure. The
1:15:04
hallowing are real reenactments
1:15:06
of pretend emergency calls.
1:15:09
My husband! It's my husband! Calm
1:15:11
down, please. What about your husband?
1:15:14
He looks, his washroom wrong. Please
1:15:17
help! I'll put his helmet in. Where are
1:15:19
you now, ma'am? I
1:15:21
was with my dad. He mispronounced
1:15:24
his words intentionally. There
1:15:26
are plenty of podcasts on the hunt for
1:15:28
justice. But only one podcast
1:15:30
has the courage to take on the
1:15:33
silly crimes. Judge John

under here very often that I saw some
1:16:50
at the airport. I didn't hear beautiful but
1:16:52
I caught the my mom this guy was
1:16:54
in front of me in the line. And
1:16:57
he was so rude to their like
1:16:59
the initial line of like security before
1:17:01
you go through the scanners the X
1:17:03
Men of Events. Like. He didn't give
1:17:05
the woman whose pass pour into the com after
1:17:07
money let's turn around and I flashed his passport
1:17:09
other from my ten feet away with you know
1:17:12
a city procedurally and she's or whatever and she
1:17:14
let him go and like rolled her eyes at
1:17:16
me and i'm like wow i can be that
1:17:18
rude to these people and then when we actually
1:17:20
went to the like when we put our stuff
1:17:22
in the trays and went to the person trying
1:17:24
to talk to him about his that you have
1:17:26
your belt off it does and he like breast
1:17:28
him off I couldn't hear what he said but
1:17:30
it was like basically like. Fuck.
1:17:33
Off real and he was so rude to
1:17:35
both of them and they that time in
1:17:37
x ray line rolled his eyes at me
1:17:39
too but neither them did anything the him
1:17:41
the my whole life I like I'm always
1:17:43
nice to those people cause I'm not taking
1:17:45
any Tanner and. Unlike. And he
1:17:48
didn't look like particularly return an exotic or
1:17:50
maybe it's. It's I saw that I
1:17:52
would think it probably somebody who has an air
1:17:54
of like. Authority about them were
1:17:56
your how they. Are you
1:17:58
know bully people on the. The feeling of
1:18:00
inferiority? Yeah yeah yeah yeah. Hillary was
1:18:03
triangular. Ah just being a dick and
1:18:05
paid no consequences for it. Ah the
1:18:07
butler and I hated I'm but I
1:18:09
was also very like jealous of a
1:18:11
my Sam The through doesn't care about
1:18:13
the I word. This is the area
1:18:15
of the airport where you're like I
1:18:17
just gotta make it through. An
1:18:20
anti also assume that they have the power to
1:18:22
not let users a. Full.
1:18:25
And I'm like I'm not generally
1:18:27
rude to people. All
1:18:30
together sincerity and that I mean that a silver
1:18:32
is one of those are go to the to
1:18:34
more. Assists But yeah,
1:18:36
like I'm extra obedient. Yeah and
1:18:38
like. But it's also funny if
1:18:41
you go through security were when
1:18:43
there's nobody there like first thing
1:18:45
in the morning on earth. Is.
1:18:48

1:18:56
bad about off as as other way say
1:18:58
that Yeah I was at the airport in
1:19:00
Edmonton last week. Land.
1:19:02
There was a very elderly woman
1:19:04
ninety nine months, super elderly and
1:19:06

1:19:08
a wheelchair. And. The security
1:19:10
them in. The. Old woman get
1:19:13
up out of a test taker
1:19:15
code are they patted her down.
1:19:17
Her daughter was years now so
1:19:19
it's like she's very frail and
1:19:21
and in Milan or was he
1:19:23
thinking now. I'm
1:19:25
in. That was my thought He was like
1:19:27
this is terrible that they do and has
1:19:29
been on my that is a perfect drug
1:19:31
mule that like that's true Yeah I've been
1:19:33
see I couldn't believe they made and there
1:19:35
was no and Marina Thomas to the would
1:19:37
known around I was just as as ours
1:19:39
is like Alice to do that at times
1:19:41
I was devastated. Nice up. So bad for her
1:19:43
and her daughter, but you know it's weird. Psychologically,
1:19:46
I felt really bad for them. and then the
1:19:48
daughter started getting really worked up. And
1:19:50
then the more worked up the daughter got. The.
1:19:52
Less and to be I had been as soon
1:19:54
as I write in the world that are more
1:19:56
the more hours worth of see got as a
1:19:58
cop a calm down. The other? Yeah,
1:20:00
exactly. These people don't make see a
1:20:03
policy. Yeah, yeah, she was right. But
1:20:05
it's weird you want them to decide
1:20:07
that sweet spot of likes just enough
1:20:09
like anger where you still empathizing with
1:20:11
them, but now much that. To.
1:20:13
Save! My favorite thing in that circumstance
1:20:15
is where somebody will turn around and

1:22:08

1:22:26
not something we say in the house where did you
1:22:28
hear that like like
1:22:31
I get that that was a crazy
1:22:33
thing that happened but like Christ
1:22:35
almighty is what you said and
1:22:38
then I'm hanging out with a lot of older ladies
1:22:40
freaking out I look at her I'm like where did

1:22:45

1:22:58

1:23:00

1:23:05
gonna watch that movie this week it's
1:23:07
laughs it's bomb yeah it's it's it
1:23:09
holds up do you have a
1:23:11
Christmas movie you watch every year you're
1:23:13
just like oh my god my family's
1:23:15
like weird where our cultural references were
1:23:17
all thrown off we would watch this
1:23:19
movie called One Magic Christmas
1:23:22
I think it was like a hallmark movie or something
1:23:24
like we never watched Christmas vacation we weren't watching
1:23:26
the ones that you think of One
1:23:28
Magic Christmas is like a husband
1:23:30
dies at the beginning and his coat
1:23:32
his ghost comes back and is
1:23:34
with the wife and I think the daughter for the rest
1:23:37
of it but it's like a dark low budget bad
1:23:39
movie I think so that was our Christmas
1:23:42
movie One Magic Christmas wow wow do you
1:23:44
have it like on a VHS I
1:23:46
think we did yeah or we
1:23:48
watched it on TV I don't remember how oh
1:23:51
yeah well yeah One Magic Christmas is on TV
1:23:53
every year it's always on you can't escape One
1:23:55
Magic Christmas um
1:23:59
apparently I don't know if this is
1:24:01
like, everybody knows this, but the reason It's
1:24:03
a Wonderful Life is so popular is because
1:24:06
they never, they gave
1:24:08
away the rights that
1:24:11
the TV stations would have to pay to run
1:24:14
a program. So every TV station played it,
1:24:16
because they were like, oh, this is free
1:24:18
content. So that's how it became like everybody's
1:24:20
seen that movie. Oh, wow. It's kind of
1:24:23
like- Apparently there's a big flop. Yeah. Was
1:24:26
Frank Capra? Yeah. Yeah.
1:24:29
Frank Capra. Yeah. From- It's
1:24:32
a wonderful life. It's Jimmy Stewart, right? Jimmy
1:24:34
Stewart, yeah. Frank Capra is the director. Yeah.
1:24:37
And what else did he do?
1:24:41
The equalizer? Yeah, he did the equalizer three,
1:24:43
which is your favorite of the- 92% Rotten
1:24:45
Tomatoes. You can't
1:24:47
argue with it, 92%. Frank Capra wishes he
1:24:49
did the equalizer three. Frank
1:24:51
Capra, director of It's a Wonderful Life. It happened
1:24:54
one night. Mr. Smith goes to Washington. Oh, yeah,
1:24:56
Mr. Smith goes to Washington. Mr. Deeds goes to
1:24:58
town. So basically- Mr. Deeds goes
1:25:00
down on Mr. Smith. Stewart
1:25:03
was his muse. He was his Leo
1:25:05
DiCaprio. Yes. Oh, that's
1:25:07
so funny that you think Leo DiCaprio
1:25:10
is Scorsese's muse. Oh, yeah. He's
1:25:12
been in six movies with him now. Holy shit. I
1:25:15
think he's going to De Niro. Oh, I'll name
1:25:17
him. Don't give me that. DiCaprio is my John
1:25:20
Mayer, if we're talking about it. Oh, for really
1:25:22
though, okay. Although I think more people probably like
1:25:24
DiCaprio than people like Mayer. I think it's a
1:25:26
less- Yes, they do. I can tell you that
1:25:28
right now. Well, let's not diminish a
1:25:30
John Mayer's population. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's not finish a shot
1:25:33
of that. That's true. 100 million people
1:25:35
in Do I Do I Not Marry. Let's get that out of the
1:25:37
way. Yeah. The
1:25:39
Aviator. Catch Me If You Can.
1:25:41
No, that's Spielberg. That was Spielberg. Oh,
1:25:45
okay. Really? Wow,
1:25:47
fuck. I love that movie so much. I
1:25:49
didn't realize it was Spielberg. Okay, so catch, not Catch Me If
1:25:51
You Can. It's the last one where he was boyish. Yeah.
1:25:54
Yeah. Little boyish in- Boyish
1:25:58
in- Gangs of New York. Oh, Gang of
1:26:00
New York. Yeah, he was. He was
1:26:03
pretty good. Gang of New York, Shutter
1:26:05
Island, The Aviator, the new one. Killers
1:26:08
of the Flower. Have you guys seen it yet? No. I
1:26:10
can't wait to see that one. I wanted to be broken up into it.
1:26:12
You can't wait. You have waited. I
1:26:15
don't go see movies. I just don't
1:26:17
have time. But who needs to sleep
1:26:19
in a theater, really? And
1:26:22
the one, Wolf of Wall Street. And
1:26:27
when it just came out. Killers of the Flower.
1:26:30
Before Killers of the Fireman, they just did this.
1:26:32
Oh. What did he do before
1:26:34
that? I don't know. There's another
1:26:36
one. They're at six together now. He wasn't
1:26:38
in The Irishman. Oh, he did
1:26:40
the, oh no, no, he wasn't in The Irishman. Who's
1:26:43
catch me if you can? I think, I'll give
1:26:46
you that one. Did you guys
1:26:48
like Don't Look Up? I know that's not to go see.
1:26:50
I didn't see it. No, that was Adam McKay. Yeah. I
1:26:53
don't love Adam McKay, to be honest with you. I mean,
1:26:55
I loved when he was just doing straight up comedies, but
1:26:57
I don't even love the big short. Oh, really? I
1:27:00
didn't get the big short. Too confusing for me. I'm like,
1:27:02
what are they doing here? Margot
1:27:05
Robbie explained it in the back. Yeah, in the back
1:27:07
of, hello. I was a little confused. I
1:27:09
was a little distracted by her beauty
1:27:12
boy. Oh yeah.
1:27:14
What one did we miss? The Departed.
1:27:16
The Departed, right? Of course, one of the best.
1:27:19
Love the Departed. My
1:27:21
overheard comes courtesy of, I
1:27:24
was doing some holiday shopping today. Ooh, what'd you
1:27:26
get me? Something
1:27:29
lacy. I
1:27:32
was thinking about National
1:27:38
Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, and
1:27:40
I was like, what in that movie would be
1:27:42
inappropriate for kids? Because I started watching Dumb and Dumber
1:27:44
with one of my daughters, and
1:27:46
I was like, it's pretty okay, except
1:27:48
when Cam Neely, when Seabass encounters
1:27:50
him in
1:27:53
the middle of the night in
1:27:55
the bathroom stall. But
1:27:57
is it just a like, fan-
1:28:00
and fantasies about the lady from
1:28:02
the store. Yeah. That's inappropriate.
1:28:04
Because he says it's Nipoli outside America.
1:28:06
That's funny. Yeah, I don't know. I
1:28:09
mean, it's all funny. I have an
1:28:11
interesting perspective on that because we're
1:28:13
going through CBC on this TV show and getting
1:28:15
notes from them and they're pushing back on stuff.
1:28:18
And they've been really great. So it's an ongoing
1:28:20
conversation. No, you gotta bend over every time they
1:28:22
push back. No, honestly, I haven't had... I was
1:28:24
prepared to have to make some concessions that were
1:28:26
going to keep me up at night. Like, no,
1:28:28
that was so funny. They've been really great. But
1:28:30
then every once in a while, a moment comes
1:28:33
along where they're like, this one's really sexual or
1:28:35
like really out there from
1:28:37
the normal tone of the show. This
1:28:39
might alienate some people. But then you
1:28:41
go, but yeah, this is the moment.
1:28:43
Like if you don't have this, then you just
1:28:45
never have those moments. So like, you're like, okay, if
1:28:47
we get rid of this, then kids can watch it.
1:28:49
But do I want kids to watch this?
1:28:51
I think this one moment might be worth it. Yeah.
1:28:54
And a lot of kids need to fucking grow up. Yeah,
1:28:56
they gotta grow up. I don't want to make seven year
1:28:58
olds laugh anyway. Like, I want parents to feel uncomfortable if
1:29:00
they're kids in the room. Yeah. Yeah,
1:29:03
yeah, yeah. It's kind of
1:29:05
an eyes wide shot, but it's a secondhand
1:29:07
sports good story. Like, you
1:29:09
can probably watch most of there's something about
1:29:11
Mary, I don't remember well, but then once
1:29:14
you see the cum hanging from the... But the kid
1:29:16
wouldn't know what the hell that was. They would just think that
1:29:18
she put weird gel in her. Yeah. Something
1:29:20
like that. Well, no, but the scene before, all about...
1:29:23
Mmm, yes. The weird part of that is
1:29:25
his pants are on so fast afterwards. His
1:29:28
pants are on like... He's
1:29:31
got a short refractory period. That
1:29:33
has nothing to do with it. Anyway,
1:29:36
you had an over heard? I
1:29:38
did. And it was a guy talking,
1:29:41
this, you know, like talking with his phone, not by
1:29:43
his head, just yelling into a speaker.
1:29:45
And I didn't hear what the guy on the speaker said, but
1:29:47
he said, and then I said, fuck that. I
1:29:49
made more than that at Earl's. That's
1:29:52
why, Earl. It's... It probably
1:29:55
plays quite well. Probably tips. How old was
1:29:57
this guy? He was probably in his 30s.
1:30:00
Yeah, oh boy, I'm a member My
1:30:02
years that urls I feel like arose
1:30:04
from people who work there. Probably a
1:30:06
Subway a party. Oh. Yeah,
1:30:08
oh, they're all fucking yeah. No, Yeah,
1:30:10
fine and as I can nimbly whether.
1:30:14
A supper That's what am in party I
1:30:16
have as and that fucking the same as
1:30:18
when you say the party. Yeah.
1:30:21
It's. Not a party. Abilities are fucking over
1:30:23
the river about it. I've put my
1:30:25
dick in the Masters and. Slaves
1:30:28
from the from the Beastie Boys
1:30:30
know you. The business was like
1:30:33
merge samples on like a red
1:30:35
fox. Acres of necessity. As
1:30:37
was against. Ah now we also have
1:30:39
overheard sent into as from people all over
1:30:42
the world. If you want to send do
1:30:44
I see it's and I didn't ask me
1:30:46
why at Maximum fun.org as this is from
1:30:48

1:31:05
Yes, Exactly. The city of Markham's
1:31:07
never really. Like
1:31:09
one area. This overseas
1:31:12
from my high school history class as
1:31:14
just correcting an online test they gave
1:31:16
my students. I ask them to name
1:31:18
some of the differences between the Catholic
1:31:20
church and Eastern Orthodox splitter. The first
1:31:23
I thought up one of my students
1:31:25
are a Catholic mass was in Latin
1:31:27
and Orthodox is in Greek. Also Catholics
1:31:29
believe in the plop and or six
1:31:31
times dealt with. They returned as a
1:31:34
bought both by but I believe in
1:31:36
the plans. that's a weird grandson like
1:31:38
was. Oh dear readers between the Catholic
1:31:40
Church. And and don't as. Loud
1:31:44
as loser? Yeah. Military
1:31:46
assistance. Of. Ah,
1:31:48
all hail the plot. It hails
1:31:51
apart like. Christian. and deviate
1:31:53
was like a martin luther tapes it's
1:31:55
added another know orthodox deal as many
1:31:57
the i just know that their christmas
1:31:59
could my Ukrainian and he was Orthodox
1:32:02
at Christmas, it's my birthday, January 7th.
1:32:05
I'm born on the same day as Jesus. Just
1:32:08
so you know, your friend is Ukrainian,
1:32:11
right in front of you. Is Shumka Ukrainian?
1:32:13
Hell yeah, man. Are you Eastern Orthodox,
1:32:15
too? No way. Wow. He
1:32:18
doesn't even want his kids saying Christ almighty.
1:32:20
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah,
1:32:24
boy, I wish I could tell you anything
1:32:26
about the Orthodox Church. I
1:32:30
mean, there's the Latvian Orthodox episode of
1:32:32
Seinfeld. Sure. There's the
1:32:34
Greek Orthodox Church where I was at a
1:32:36
Weezer concert once. Oh, yeah, yeah. And
1:32:39
then that's about it. That's it, that's the round up. I
1:32:41
think it was maybe a Russian Orthodox Church across the street
1:32:43
from my old house. Okay. A tiny,
1:32:45
tiny little church. I don't remember that, tiny little church. This
1:32:48
next one comes from Jenny from Vancouver. I
1:32:51
overheard this walking by BC Place on
1:32:53
the night of Christine Sinclair's last game,
1:32:56
where a big portion of the crowd was young girls. Two
1:32:59
teenage girls in front of me were just
1:33:01
walking and chatting. Then suddenly a girl once
1:33:03
says, ew, did you just call me? Girl,
1:33:05
too, no, no, no, it was a butt-tat.
1:33:07
I didn't mean to. Yeah, a little gross.
1:33:10
I'm glad. Yeah, that's it now. No call,
1:33:12
no call. But I do see
1:33:14
young people talking on the phone. Yeah?
1:33:17
Like in public on AirPods. That's
1:33:20
true. Because I feel like the older generation love
1:33:23
phone calls. My generation not like
1:33:25
phone calls. But when I see
1:33:27
people out there, or
1:33:29
they're just talking to themselves, maybe they're
1:33:31
rehearsing for a play, a mental break, or
1:33:34
you know. I was talking to a journalist
1:33:36
in Whitehorse two days ago, and the day
1:33:38
before we were talking, we were texting, and
1:33:40
she said, okay, so I'll call you at
1:33:42
2 p.m. tomorrow. I said, great, talk to
1:33:45
you then. And then at 2 p.m. that
1:33:47
day, she texted me and said, can I
1:33:49
call you now? I'm like, yeah,
1:33:52
we established a ship. Oh yeah. But,
1:33:55
you know, Where you just finishing up
1:33:57
powdering your nose or something like that. Yeah, Where
1:33:59
you. But it was you to phone call. yeah
1:34:01
I know, but he is. I feel like. Like.
1:34:03

1:34:54

1:35:16
I've I've never considered by in

1:35:20
rental ones are bad. But like as
1:35:23
well I have. A dinner jacket,
1:35:26

1:35:28

1:35:45

1:36:06
Wait, but
1:36:08
graduations wouldn't be the same time of year as the Oscars.
1:36:12
But what the... That was another thing I got
1:36:14
wrong again. Yeah, the stuff
1:36:16
they're renting, like in a Hollywood
1:36:19
tuxedo place, isn't the like stuff
1:36:21
that they're renting here. No. They
1:36:24

1:36:36
Lizzo. Give me a
1:36:39
Lizzo, that's what I want. Yeah. Why
1:36:41

Something about a banana, something... Yeah, there's some food
1:36:50
related thing at a strip club or something. Oh
1:36:52

1:36:54

1:36:56
hate the celebrities. I'm
1:36:59
gonna be mad at the celebrities. In
1:37:01
addition to our versions that are written in, we also accept
1:37:03
your phone calls. If you would like to call us, our
1:37:06
phone number is 1-844-779-7631. That's
1:37:10
one, ugh, spy pod
1:37:12
one like these people have. Hi.
1:37:17
My 13 year old just got out of the shower and I
1:37:19
heard him say, Oh, that's a good time
1:37:21
to be down in the shower. That
1:37:25
was it. That's all he's done.
1:37:27
Like 636 is a preferred time to come out. I
1:37:29
wonder. Like, you know, like when you see it's 1-2-3-4
1:37:31
on the clock and you're like, Yeah,
1:37:35
cool. 636, we're
1:37:37
talking, are we talking evening or morning? You know? 636,
1:37:40
that's an early shower. You're going somewhere. You got up
1:37:42
to take care of you. Maybe you got
1:37:44
a dog, but you got a 13 year old taking a shower at
1:37:46
636 in the evening. You
1:37:50
know, what the hell's going on there? Hi,
1:37:53
Mom and Dad. I'll be in the shower. And
1:37:57
you know what? No
1:38:00
one thinks you're doing anything. Yeah, are
1:38:02
you legal or anything like that? So
1:38:04
just say something totally casual when you
1:38:07
come out of the shower. 6
1:38:09
36, that was a good time. Oh
1:38:13
boy. Do you
1:38:15
guys have, do you
1:38:18
notice numbers around? I notice
1:38:20
when it's 1111, I notice that. I
1:38:25
also will, I'm trying to
1:38:27
think of other ones that like, if
1:38:30
it's 7, no. Do
1:38:33
they have it set to like army time or whatever? Cause
1:38:35
then you can see like 2222. Yeah,
1:38:38
that's true. That's a good one cause it's not as common as 1111.
1:38:41
You gotta have it set to the half as common. But
1:38:47
yeah, you? I,
1:38:49
time that you're looking out for? Not time,
1:38:51
but like there's, so
1:38:54
the way that the parking meters work in
1:38:56
Vancouver is every parking spot in the city
1:38:58
has a five digit code. And
1:39:01
you can, if you have an app on your phone,
1:39:03
you can pay through the app. And
1:39:05
like, I'm always like reminding
1:39:07
myself, like, you
1:39:09
know, between looking at the code and
1:39:11
typing it into my phone, I'm always like, 5
1:39:13
3 0 2 6, 5 3 0 2 6,
1:39:15
5 3 0 2 6. And I'm like, oh,
1:39:18
this is a perfect number. This number is unforgettable.
1:39:22
8 3, 3 3 2, like, well, what, I
1:39:26
really lucked out with this number. I
1:39:28
can, the one thing I can do is if I go to like
1:39:32
hotels, I can always remember my room number. I don't
1:39:34
ever need that little thing that you put the key
1:39:36
in. I always, even if it's
1:39:38
like multiple days in a row, the key
1:39:40
in that thing, cause then if they come
1:39:42
here, if you lose it, then someone will
1:39:44
know. Yeah. I hate even when I'm checking
1:39:47
in and they say out loud, what room I'm in. I got,
1:39:49
we got you in room 424. I'm
1:39:51
like, would you shut up? Yeah, man. My
1:39:53
stockers right over there. Hi,
1:39:55
my phone's filled with pictures of hotel room numbers.
1:39:57
I take a picture of every room in choice.
1:40:00
I'm afraid I'm gonna come back and not
1:40:02
know what room I'm in. That's the only
1:40:04
time I can remember numbers though. That's like
1:40:06
my one... Gift. Yeah,
1:40:08
my one gift. All right, here's
1:40:11
the next phone call. Hi,
1:40:14
David and Graham. So, my
1:40:17
star market is 935 at
1:40:19
night, and this
1:40:21
car full of bros, maybe five
1:40:24
bros get out
1:40:26
of their car. And they
1:40:29
start walking in, and the one bro
1:40:31
who is wearing a Santa hat says,
1:40:34
okay, so I need
1:40:36
tortilla chips and
1:40:38
female condoms. And
1:40:43
I just thought that was really funny. The
1:40:46
female condoms. Wow. Do
1:40:48
they still sell it? I don't know,
1:40:50
but I remember a woman on the
1:40:54
Just for Laughs, reruns they would
1:40:56
play on CBC or Comedy Network, and she did
1:40:58
a whole bit about it where she opened one
1:41:00
up and then showed how it, like,
1:41:02
what it looked like. It was hilarious.
1:41:05
I remember when we were learning about, say, sex,
1:41:08
and they showed us the female condom and they
1:41:10
were like, you're not gonna need to... Well,
1:41:13
they singled me out. They were like, Dave, you'll never
1:41:15
need to know any of it. But
1:41:19
they were like, yes, there's a... Like, kids
1:41:21
have questions, and I'm like, what about the
1:41:23
female condom? Okay, well, that's something
1:41:26
that's new, and we're
1:41:28
not sure that you can buy it, but
1:41:30
it's very expensive. You're probably better just getting
1:41:32
a male condom. Yeah,
1:41:35
and it's that or the foam. That
1:41:37
was the other one where it was
1:41:39
like... The foam? Yeah, there's like spermicidal
1:41:42
foam. Oh, yeah. Yeah, which I only
1:41:44
ever heard about in sex
1:41:46
ed class. I've never seen it.
1:41:48
I remember the... Because if you
1:41:50
buy condoms with spermicide in them,
1:41:53
I remember the chemical. What
1:41:56
is it? Because when we did sex ed,
1:41:58
this was maybe called... sex ed,
1:42:01
which is like, you know, if you lived on campus, they
1:42:03
did a week of like, here's
1:42:05
how everything works, grab a condom,
1:42:07
leave a condom. Is
1:42:12
a female condom a dental dam? No.
1:42:15
I remember Patrice O'Neill talking about that in one of his
1:42:17
bits and I still don't know what that is. It's,
1:42:20
I think, have you ever had
1:42:23
a, a sex? Dental work. Yeah,
1:42:25
have you ever had where they put like a
1:42:27
rubber thing in your mouth, over your mouth? I
1:42:29
don't think so. Because like a dental dam is
1:42:31
something they actually use in dentistry. Yeah. Yeah.
1:42:34
But you can make your own out of a condom or
1:42:36
an old balloon, you know, you could do whatever. But
1:42:40
no one does. But
1:42:44
the guy who was giving the sex
1:42:46
talk was like, oh yeah.
1:42:48
So spermicide, the spermicide that they
1:42:51
put on condoms called Nanoxynil-9, it'll
1:42:53
kill sperm. It's the same stuff
1:42:55
they use to clean subway cars
1:42:57
in New York City. Shit. Wow.
1:43:02
Okay. Gross. That in
1:43:05
my body. All right,
1:43:07
here's your final phone call. Hello
1:43:10
Dave Graham. Lovely guest, I'm
1:43:13
sure. This is Scott calling from St. Louis.
1:43:17
I got overheard of the kids say
1:43:19
the darndest variety. My daughters have got
1:43:21
a friend over and they're playing downstairs
1:43:23
as I'm making dinner. And
1:43:25
I hear one of them pipe up and say, oh
1:43:28
my God, you guys, I just got it. You'll
1:43:30
never believe it. Merry
1:43:32
Rizmas. Anyway,
1:43:36

1:43:38

1:43:44
how cool. Yeah. Are you Rizd up? Yeah.
1:43:47
DJ, do you have Riz? Yeah.
1:43:51

1:43:55
think once you hit a certain age, a second,
1:43:57
you use the word Riz, you don't have Riz.
1:43:59
Yeah. cat 22 you find yourself in. I've
1:44:01

1:44:03
been raising both your daughters and
1:44:06
Riz household. Yeah, we're very Riz, we're
1:44:08
Orthodox Riz. Well
1:44:13

we started, but when I announced that the show's coming
1:44:47
out, several people were like, are you going on to
1:44:49
stop podcasting yourself to talk about it? They were more
1:44:51
excited about that idea than the show itself. Maybe now
1:44:53
they'll check out the show now that they've gotten to
1:44:55
know you a little bit. Yeah. Yeah. I hope so.
