00:00:00.000 –> 00:00:03.820
The gang is Sudbury bound. See the sights and have a good look around.

2
00:00:04.059 –> 00:00:08.920
It’s a universal tour and one thing’s for sure, this place is our kind of town.

3
00:00:09.840 –> 00:00:12.660
That fresh produce stand there, that’s a beauty.

4
00:00:13.200 –> 00:00:14.180
What do yous listen to?

5
00:00:14.400 –> 00:00:15.740
My favorite murder podcast.

6
00:00:16.059 –> 00:00:17.160
Taggart and Torrance podcast.

7
00:00:17.380 –> 00:00:18.140
The produce stand.

8
00:00:18.480 –> 00:00:19.580
Ah, fucking sexy.

9
00:00:22.610 –> 00:00:26.890
It’s Sunday and Sunday is for picking stones. That means we are once again

10
00:00:26.890 –> 00:00:31.290
hanging out at the Proto Stand, a podcast paying tribute to everything in the universe.

11
00:00:37.010 –> 00:00:40.430
Now, I know what you’re thinking. There are many other podcasts with Litter Kenny out there,

12
00:00:40.590 –> 00:00:45.650
but this one’s recording from the goddamn farmhouse kitchen, so fuck you all.

13
00:00:47.490 –> 00:00:50.650
I’ll do respect to the other Litter Kenny podcast. This is fucking crazy what we’re

14
00:00:50.650 –> 00:00:51.150
doing here today.

15
00:00:51.150 –> 00:00:52.750
I think we win by proximity.

16
00:00:54.010 –> 00:00:55.610
Yeah, that’s it. Yeah, it’s just proximity.

17
00:00:55.750 –> 00:01:00.290
Anyway, I’m Al your host and joining me as always, but in the kitchen

18
00:01:00.290 –> 00:01:06.890
is the lovely Tanya and squirrely Matt, the lovely Linda and V for Victor.

19
00:01:07.310 –> 00:01:08.590
How are you doing tonight?

20
00:01:10.710 –> 00:01:13.470
Anyway, fucking fantastic.

21
00:01:13.570 –> 00:01:14.870
Apparently we’re speechless.

22
00:01:15.990 –> 00:01:18.810
We’ve been waiting for him to start this show for like 20 minutes.

23
00:01:19.470 –> 00:01:22.970
Should I play the unicorn sound bite off the top here?

24
00:01:23.030 –> 00:01:24.030
Do it, just do it.

25
00:01:24.050 –> 00:01:24.990
All right, there we go.

26
00:01:25.210 –> 00:01:26.310
Oh my God.

27
00:01:27.270 –> 00:01:42.810
And this is a shot of the other camera angle here.

28
00:01:42.890 –> 00:01:46.110
I’m trying to be fancy here, but I’m not going to be able to switch too quickly.

29
00:01:46.510 –> 00:01:50.990
But here we have myself and Matt sitting in his barn clothes in his barn clothes.

30
00:01:51.850 –> 00:01:53.250
I can’t believe you did that.

31
00:01:53.770 –> 00:01:54.750
So we walk onto the set.

32
00:01:54.890 –> 00:01:57.430
He’s like, is that Derry’s onesie?

33
00:01:57.570 –> 00:01:58.230
It’s not.

34
00:01:58.510 –> 00:02:00.270
Yeah, I’ve been told that I have to go.

35
00:02:00.370 –> 00:02:01.950
This is not the actual sky.

36
00:02:01.950 –> 00:02:03.110
I guess it’s the backup set.

37
00:02:03.290 –> 00:02:03.930
It’s not backup.

38
00:02:04.090 –> 00:02:06.890
It’s dressing, dressing, whatever, set dressing, set dressing.

39
00:02:06.950 –> 00:02:07.810
It’s not meant to be worn.

40
00:02:07.810 –> 00:02:10.449
It doesn’t smell like barn clothes either, so it’s quite delightful to be in.

41
00:02:10.449 –> 00:02:13.210
And it’s a little cold because it’s actually a hockey arena we’re in.

42
00:02:14.330 –> 00:02:16.290
So I’m in it to win it right now.

43
00:02:16.310 –> 00:02:17.250
I’m not cold at all.

44
00:02:17.310 –> 00:02:18.550
I’m quite warm, actually.

45
00:02:18.690 –> 00:02:20.990
It’s been a whirlwind trying to set up here.

46
00:02:21.910 –> 00:02:26.490
Yeah, guys, I’m now showing Tanya, Linda, and Victor in the camera here.

47
00:02:26.550 –> 00:02:28.250
And Tanya is recording from her phone.

48
00:02:29.990 –> 00:02:30.850
Here we are.

49
00:02:31.210 –> 00:02:31.890
We’re in Sudbury.

50
00:02:32.110 –> 00:02:33.570
Actually, we’re in Capriol.

51
00:02:33.870 –> 00:02:34.530
Capriol, yeah.

52
00:02:34.650 –> 00:02:35.490
No, we’re in Hammer.

53
00:02:35.490 –> 00:02:39.190
Well, we’re at the Capriol Arena outside of Ham.

54
00:02:39.190 –> 00:02:40.790
Can we give the location?

55
00:02:40.970 –> 00:02:41.410
I’m sorry.

56
00:02:41.590 –> 00:02:42.130
Wait, pause.

57
00:02:43.910 –> 00:02:44.790
It’s a lease thing.

58
00:02:44.970 –> 00:02:46.630
Yeah, it’s a public arena that they’ve leased out.

59
00:02:47.350 –> 00:02:49.190
But yeah, it’s wild that we’re here.

60
00:02:49.330 –> 00:02:50.670
Yeah, it’s pretty crazy.

61
00:02:51.170 –> 00:02:53.910
And I mean, we’ve been sharing out a bunch of stuff on Twitter

62
00:02:55.290 –> 00:02:58.690
and on Instagram, all the pictures and videos we’ve taken so far.

63
00:02:58.790 –> 00:03:00.850
Nothing from today yet, but I will be posting that soon

64
00:03:00.850 –> 00:03:04.490
because before we were here, we were actually at the farm.

65
00:03:04.490 –> 00:03:06.850
And that was pretty cool.

66
00:03:07.330 –> 00:03:08.450
What did you think, Victor?

67
00:03:09.550 –> 00:03:12.170
I’m just happy Tanya got out of there alive.

68
00:03:12.630 –> 00:03:14.090
Oh, my gosh.

69
00:03:14.570 –> 00:03:15.010
Explain.

70
00:03:16.910 –> 00:03:18.270
That dog was…

71
00:03:18.270 –> 00:03:19.530
So there’s a farm dog.

72
00:03:19.610 –> 00:03:21.110
Don’t give the name away, just in case.

73
00:03:21.110 –> 00:03:21.530
Just dog.

74
00:03:21.550 –> 00:03:22.310
He’s in the witness protection.

75
00:03:22.990 –> 00:03:24.530
I’ve given him the title dog.

76
00:03:24.550 –> 00:03:27.370
It was not Gus, but it was another Puppers.

77
00:03:27.770 –> 00:03:31.130
And he was growly, and he had his ears back.

78
00:03:31.830 –> 00:03:33.370
He was so cute as a good boy.

79
00:03:33.370 –> 00:03:36.210
He was in protection mode, and I was like, shit.

80
00:03:37.030 –> 00:03:38.010
You guys are all backing off.

81
00:03:38.130 –> 00:03:38.710
I’m like, here, buddy.

82
00:03:39.570 –> 00:03:42.430
We were told that he was an ankle biter,

83
00:03:42.550 –> 00:03:44.510
and Al’s got shorts on today.

84
00:03:44.650 –> 00:03:46.010
So that was a little…

85
00:03:46.010 –> 00:03:50.390
We decided the best way to be was just stay in our pack,

86
00:03:50.530 –> 00:03:54.090
and the dog wouldn’t be able to pick off one of us.

87
00:03:56.230 –> 00:03:56.830
Oh, my.

88
00:03:57.050 –> 00:04:00.710
So yeah, I think he sensed my fear, and he enjoyed smelling me.

89
00:04:01.650 –> 00:04:04.570
Yeah, it was pretty cool, though, walking around and checking out…

90
00:04:04.570 –> 00:04:06.890
I mean, we got some great shots in the…

91
00:04:06.890 –> 00:04:07.190
What’s that?

92
00:04:07.190 –> 00:04:10.050
The tractor shed, I guess, and in front of the barn.

93
00:04:10.390 –> 00:04:10.910
The hangar and everything.

94
00:04:11.610 –> 00:04:12.710
It was so surreal.

95
00:04:12.970 –> 00:04:14.850
I mean, as we’re arriving in the distance,

96
00:04:14.850 –> 00:04:18.050
you could see sort of the roof of the farmhouse,

97
00:04:18.269 –> 00:04:19.130
and you’re like, there it is.

98
00:04:19.430 –> 00:04:19.850
There it is.

99
00:04:19.870 –> 00:04:21.190
And then you come around, there’s the laneway.

100
00:04:21.190 –> 00:04:22.210
There it is, there it is.

101
00:04:22.450 –> 00:04:23.810
And then as you’re walking, it’s like…

102
00:04:23.810 –> 00:04:25.770
It really is a shooting dream, though, like we were talking.

103
00:04:26.270 –> 00:04:27.490
So I don’t know how to say their names,

104
00:04:28.030 –> 00:04:32.530
Craig and Kara from the crew have been wildly generous with their time today.

105
00:04:32.610 –> 00:04:33.590
Thank you so much.

106
00:04:33.830 –> 00:04:36.210
And of course, Jared, for allowing this all to happen.

107
00:04:36.290 –> 00:04:39.230
But they met us at the farmhouse and gave us a little walk around.

108
00:04:39.930 –> 00:04:40.730
But it’s so surreal.

109
00:04:41.370 –> 00:04:44.430
And we were talking a bit about what a dream it is,

110
00:04:44.430 –> 00:04:45.510
because it’s such a great property.

111
00:04:45.690 –> 00:04:46.850
There’s so many different locations,

112
00:04:46.850 –> 00:04:50.010
and they all get leveraged in the show at one point or another.

113
00:04:50.770 –> 00:04:51.950
And then, of course, the family,

114
00:04:51.950 –> 00:04:53.890
we gave a wave to the gentleman who lived there.

115
00:04:54.630 –> 00:04:56.090
But very nice to let us on set.

116
00:04:56.090 –> 00:04:58.370
It’s just so surreal.

117
00:04:59.190 –> 00:05:01.850
Victor, you’ve said it’s like stepping onto a TV show.

118
00:05:02.130 –> 00:05:03.730
Well, we literally did.

119
00:05:04.810 –> 00:05:06.490
And even though it was covered up,

120
00:05:07.690 –> 00:05:08.570
something about…

121
00:05:08.570 –> 00:05:09.190
It was there.

122
00:05:09.250 –> 00:05:10.650
The produce stand was there.

123
00:05:10.790 –> 00:05:12.970
They had already had it wrapped up because they…

124
00:05:13.630 –> 00:05:17.570
I think they shoot those scenes early on in their shooting schedule.

125
00:05:17.930 –> 00:05:19.210
But it was just sitting there.

126
00:05:20.510 –> 00:05:21.690
And I’ll share the photo.

127
00:05:21.690 –> 00:05:25.790
I was laughing as him and Tanya stood in front of a tarped piece of something.

128
00:05:26.630 –> 00:05:27.730
But the wheel’s there.

129
00:05:28.530 –> 00:05:28.890
The wheel was there.

130
00:05:29.170 –> 00:05:30.010
Yeah, the wheel was showing.

131
00:05:30.030 –> 00:05:31.250
It’s the mythology.

132
00:05:31.430 –> 00:05:34.930
It was surprisingly smaller than what you would expect it to be.

133
00:05:35.190 –> 00:05:37.190
Because I was like, that’s it?

134
00:05:37.330 –> 00:05:39.330
It was like a tiny little trailer.

135
00:05:40.630 –> 00:05:43.150
But then this room, the kitchen,

136
00:05:43.530 –> 00:05:46.390
is so much bigger than what I expected it to be.

137
00:05:46.570 –> 00:05:47.330
I don’t know…

138
00:05:47.330 –> 00:05:49.930
The wall behind Matt is…

139
00:05:51.410 –> 00:05:53.570
It’s further than what I thought it was.

140
00:05:53.570 –> 00:05:58.490
And right now, it’s a little messy because obviously they’re done shooting.

141
00:05:58.730 –> 00:06:03.250
And they’re kind of putting everything away until the next time they shoot, I guess.

142
00:06:03.770 –> 00:06:08.310
But we had a great tour of Shorzy’s dressing room, the locker room area.

143
00:06:09.230 –> 00:06:09.910
Matt’s office.

144
00:06:09.910 –> 00:06:10.950
Matt’s office, yeah.

145
00:06:11.630 –> 00:06:14.870
And we went into Stuart’s basement.

146
00:06:15.210 –> 00:06:15.790
It’s so epic.

147
00:06:15.930 –> 00:06:17.750
It’s as epic as it looks on the show.

148
00:06:18.730 –> 00:06:19.810
It wasn’t fully dressed.

149
00:06:19.810 –> 00:06:22.730
I was missing the table with the fake cocaine and all that shit.

150
00:06:22.730 –> 00:06:25.970
But the DJ booth was there, the couches…

151
00:06:25.970 –> 00:06:26.910
Train set was not there.

152
00:06:27.110 –> 00:06:28.130
Train set was not there.

153
00:06:28.310 –> 00:06:28.550
That’s right.

154
00:06:28.890 –> 00:06:29.450
Poor Victor.

155
00:06:29.850 –> 00:06:31.530
But Victor got very sentimental.

156
00:06:31.670 –> 00:06:33.970
He’s like, is this where they broke the guitar?

157
00:06:34.970 –> 00:06:35.710
He did.

158
00:06:35.790 –> 00:06:36.130
He did.

159
00:06:36.370 –> 00:06:37.650
That’s what he asked.

160
00:06:37.930 –> 00:06:41.090
And then we heard that it was only a few years ago that they moved the set here.

161
00:06:41.290 –> 00:06:42.810
So he’s trying to trace it back.

162
00:06:42.890 –> 00:06:43.850
And what was your final decision?

163
00:06:44.050 –> 00:06:45.770
Was it here or was it at the actual…

164
00:06:45.770 –> 00:06:47.090
I think it was at the actual basement.

165
00:06:47.090 –> 00:06:49.850
Okay, so this is not the grave site of that guitar.

166
00:06:50.070 –> 00:06:51.010
Not been tarnished.

167
00:06:51.010 –> 00:06:53.150
Has no bad juju.

168
00:06:54.450 –> 00:06:57.550
Now, Linda, I mean, you’re not on the podcast,

169
00:06:57.690 –> 00:07:00.290
but you’ve been with us the whole weekend.

170
00:07:01.490 –> 00:07:03.550
And I know, I mean, you’ve watched Summer Letter, Kenny,

171
00:07:03.590 –> 00:07:05.150
but you kind of stopped after a while.

172
00:07:05.230 –> 00:07:09.310
I watched some of it and I kind of stopped after around season three,

173
00:07:09.330 –> 00:07:12.250
but I do catch them now and again when Victor’s watching them.

174
00:07:12.490 –> 00:07:15.650
So I’m still, you know, remember a lot of the scenes

175
00:07:15.650 –> 00:07:18.310
and I still have my favorites and all that.

176
00:07:18.470 –> 00:07:20.890
All right, what are some of your favorites?

177
00:07:20.890 –> 00:07:22.530
Well, one of my favorites is,

178
00:07:22.530 –> 00:07:24.970
I don’t know if there’s only one Christmas episode,

179
00:07:25.030 –> 00:07:29.310
but it’s a Christmas episode where Wayne is giving presents.

180
00:07:29.310 –> 00:07:31.130
And he’s sitting in that chair just around the corner.

181
00:07:31.390 –> 00:07:32.750
Exactly, right around it.

182
00:07:33.130 –> 00:07:38.010
And my favorite gift is that he gives Stuart a bottle of vitamin D.

183
00:07:42.450 –> 00:07:44.030
Such a specific memory, I love it.

184
00:07:45.290 –> 00:07:46.250
Well done.

185
00:07:46.670 –> 00:07:47.550
What did you think of, I mean,

186
00:07:47.550 –> 00:07:51.610
we went around to different locations yesterday

187
00:07:51.610 –> 00:07:52.890
and you were our camera person.

188
00:07:53.190 –> 00:07:53.990
Thank you so much, Lynn.

189
00:07:54.430 –> 00:07:56.670
I was in the resident photography all weekend.

190
00:07:56.970 –> 00:07:58.730
My pleasure, I was happy to be part of it.

191
00:07:58.890 –> 00:08:01.570
But it was, as we were saying, it’s like being in New York

192
00:08:01.570 –> 00:08:04.030
where you feel like deja vu everywhere you go

193
00:08:04.030 –> 00:08:05.150
and all the buildings you feel like,

194
00:08:05.170 –> 00:08:07.030
oh, I know this place from a movie.

195
00:08:07.130 –> 00:08:08.430
I can’t recall which one though.

196
00:08:08.770 –> 00:08:10.550
And the same thing being here in Sudbury

197
00:08:10.550 –> 00:08:12.470
and just seeing all the landmarks and saying,

198
00:08:12.570 –> 00:08:15.250
oh, I know that the dog house,

199
00:08:16.230 –> 00:08:17.350
just the various places.

200
00:08:17.350 –> 00:08:19.250
We had drinks at the dog house last night

201
00:08:19.250 –> 00:08:20.570
where Shorsie and Laura Moore,

202
00:08:20.630 –> 00:08:22.050
where we first meet Laura Moore.

203
00:08:22.710 –> 00:08:24.070
We had a really nice dinner

204
00:08:24.070 –> 00:08:28.290
with one of our favorite listeners, Michelle.

205
00:08:29.890 –> 00:08:30.550
Alexandria, is that what it’s called?

206
00:08:30.630 –> 00:08:31.270
Alexandria, yeah.

207
00:08:31.270 –> 00:08:32.809
Yeah, it was a good Mediterranean.

208
00:08:34.169 –> 00:08:35.929
I didn’t see, I mean, it was fine.

209
00:08:36.090 –> 00:08:37.890
I didn’t see a lot of Mediterranean specific

210
00:08:37.890 –> 00:08:38.490
on the menu.

211
00:08:38.830 –> 00:08:39.710
Yeah, it was a lot of pasta and stuff.

212
00:08:39.789 –> 00:08:40.750
It was fine though.

213
00:08:40.750 –> 00:08:41.309
Yeah, it was really good.

214
00:08:41.750 –> 00:08:43.770
But what was cool though, so our server.

215
00:08:44.790 –> 00:08:45.450
Oh, yes.

216
00:08:45.450 –> 00:08:46.750
There was kind of a funny story there.

217
00:08:46.750 –> 00:08:50.110
Our waitress, Stephanie, lovely girl.

218
00:08:50.110 –> 00:08:52.030
It was, we were going on and then she,

219
00:08:52.370 –> 00:08:54.050
one point we got talking about what we were doing here

220
00:08:54.050 –> 00:08:55.170
and I said, yeah, we’re doing a tour

221
00:08:55.170 –> 00:08:56.830
for Letter Kenny and Shorsie.

222
00:08:57.070 –> 00:08:57.790
And she kind of made it,

223
00:08:57.790 –> 00:08:58.550
she never really watched the show,

224
00:08:58.570 –> 00:09:00.230
but she’s like, but I’m on the show.

225
00:09:00.250 –> 00:09:01.250
And we said, what do you mean?

226
00:09:01.270 –> 00:09:02.970
She’s like, well, my arm is.

227
00:09:03.450 –> 00:09:04.670
And then she went quiet

228
00:09:04.670 –> 00:09:06.610
and said she didn’t want to tell us about it

229
00:09:06.610 –> 00:09:07.950
because her family’s embarrassed.

230
00:09:08.470 –> 00:09:09.150
And then she left.

231
00:09:09.190 –> 00:09:10.850
And of course we couldn’t let that go by.

232
00:09:10.930 –> 00:09:13.610
And then we were, okay, so which scene is your arm?

233
00:09:13.730 –> 00:09:15.550
And we think what she described,

234
00:09:15.710 –> 00:09:16.670
I can’t remember which episode it was,

235
00:09:16.670 –> 00:09:20.950
but where Gail’s explaining her interaction with Dickskin

236
00:09:20.950 –> 00:09:25.150
and she does sort of the arm lock move in the background.

237
00:09:25.370 –> 00:09:27.670
Everyone in the background are talking about Dick,

238
00:09:28.230 –> 00:09:30.010
how large Dickens unit is.

239
00:09:30.030 –> 00:09:32.430
And she’s stroking her arm in the background.

240
00:09:32.730 –> 00:09:35.410
So if you remember that scene,

241
00:09:35.650 –> 00:09:37.970
look at that scene, the woman who’s doing this,

242
00:09:38.390 –> 00:09:40.190
those who are watching the video of this,

243
00:09:40.970 –> 00:09:41.850
that’s Stephanie.

244
00:09:42.130 –> 00:09:44.750
And right now she’s a waitress over at Alexandria’s,

245
00:09:44.750 –> 00:09:47.990
she says she’s got some plans to do other stuff.

246
00:09:48.730 –> 00:09:51.150
But she said she had a blast being a part of it.

247
00:09:51.230 –> 00:09:53.030
And I mean, we really get that vibe around Sudbury,

248
00:09:53.070 –> 00:09:54.290
anyone who talked about it,

249
00:09:54.870 –> 00:09:56.330
who obviously is aware, which is most people,

250
00:09:56.370 –> 00:09:59.490
there’s a real good vibe in the town around Letter Kenyan

251
00:09:59.490 –> 00:10:02.130
and what people’s involvement are in different degrees.

252
00:10:02.590 –> 00:10:04.170
Even at our hotel, right?

253
00:10:04.470 –> 00:10:05.870
Where we stayed at the Radisson

254
00:10:06.670 –> 00:10:08.150
and some of the staff there are like,

255
00:10:08.190 –> 00:10:10.330
oh, they saw me wearing the Shorzy shirt

256
00:10:10.330 –> 00:10:12.950
and were asking, oh, are you guys still shooting?

257
00:10:13.110 –> 00:10:14.730
I said, no, no, no, we’re not part of the show.

258
00:10:14.730 –> 00:10:17.030
We’re just doing a podcast tour and this.

259
00:10:17.350 –> 00:10:19.130
But they were very excited, like, yeah, we met members.

260
00:10:19.330 –> 00:10:20.350
They’re so wonderful.

261
00:10:20.690 –> 00:10:22.670
They couldn’t talk highly enough about the crew

262
00:10:22.670 –> 00:10:25.550
and cast of the Letter Kenyan and Shorzy production team.

263
00:10:25.910 –> 00:10:27.410
So that was nice to hear as well.

264
00:10:28.270 –> 00:10:30.530
So let’s rewind a bit because how did we get here?

265
00:10:31.410 –> 00:10:32.810
We fast-tracked a lot there.

266
00:10:33.010 –> 00:10:34.330
Yeah, we skipped over a lot of stuff

267
00:10:34.330 –> 00:10:36.350
just because it’s so exciting to be where we are right now.

268
00:10:37.650 –> 00:10:40.170
But Matt, you said you just recently listened to episode zero

269
00:10:40.170 –> 00:10:42.610
and I’m going to put it at the beginning of this podcast,

270
00:10:42.630 –> 00:10:43.990
the clip where Tanya says,

271
00:10:44.730 –> 00:10:46.030
what she’s, you know what?

272
00:10:46.150 –> 00:10:47.610
Actually, let’s just play the clip right now

273
00:10:47.610 –> 00:10:49.570
because I’ve got it queued up right here.

274
00:10:49.590 –> 00:10:50.530
Hold on a second here.

275
00:10:50.870 –> 00:10:53.510
Episode zero, the production meeting episode.

276
00:10:54.810 –> 00:10:56.390
Yeah, this is Tanya in episode.

277
00:10:56.410 –> 00:10:58.570
Maybe we’ll convince you that it’s not a good show.

278
00:10:58.570 –> 00:10:59.690
But by the end of this,

279
00:10:59.970 –> 00:11:02.850
I want to take this podcast on the road up to Sudbury

280
00:11:02.850 –> 00:11:05.330
and we can all four of us do the Letter Kenny tour

281
00:11:05.330 –> 00:11:07.110
after all the social distancing is done.

282
00:11:07.110 –> 00:11:08.070
What do you guys think?

283
00:11:08.950 –> 00:11:11.810
Okay, I said yes to the podcast.

284
00:11:11.810 –> 00:11:12.810
I’m not sure.

285
00:11:12.810 –> 00:11:16.930
I’m taking a trip for the Letter Kenny road trip.

286
00:11:17.110 –> 00:11:18.290
No, I’m not sure about that.

287
00:11:18.830 –> 00:11:22.410
So we’ll just say Tanya was firmly on the undecided side.

288
00:11:23.770 –> 00:11:26.310
This is the most extreme version of foreshadowing

289
00:11:26.310 –> 00:11:28.990
you’ve ever seen in media production.

290
00:11:29.890 –> 00:11:30.670
It was perfect.

291
00:11:31.870 –> 00:11:32.890
So because yeah, back then,

292
00:11:32.890 –> 00:11:34.610
who knew what this was going to turn into

293
00:11:34.610 –> 00:11:37.130
and I was just kind of dreaming out loud too.

294
00:11:37.270 –> 00:11:40.050
It’s like imagine if this could go on

295
00:11:40.050 –> 00:11:42.030
and we can go on a trip to Sudbury

296
00:11:42.030 –> 00:11:45.850
and go shoot some video or take some pictures or whatever

297
00:11:47.290 –> 00:11:49.430
at some of the places where they shoot the show.

298
00:11:49.650 –> 00:11:50.190
That’d be great.

299
00:11:50.330 –> 00:11:51.570
And Tanya’s like, are you crazy?

300
00:11:51.910 –> 00:11:53.810
Why would we want to do that?

301
00:11:54.070 –> 00:11:55.430
Fast forward to this summer.

302
00:11:56.110 –> 00:11:58.590
I mean, if you’ve been listening to the podcast,

303
00:11:58.690 –> 00:11:59.790
you’ve been hearing Tanya going,

304
00:12:00.030 –> 00:12:02.170
we need to go and record in Sudbury.

305
00:12:02.170 –> 00:12:02.910
We’re going to do this.

306
00:12:02.910 –> 00:12:03.510
Let’s do this.

307
00:12:03.570 –> 00:12:04.430
We’re going to do this.

308
00:12:04.430 –> 00:12:05.750
We should record a peppy paninis

309
00:12:05.750 –> 00:12:07.190
or we should do this or we should do that.

310
00:12:07.190 –> 00:12:11.570
And finally I said, okay, you win.

311
00:12:12.210 –> 00:12:14.250
Again, I’m a shitter, get off the pot.

312
00:12:14.550 –> 00:12:15.710
But you know what it is?

313
00:12:16.230 –> 00:12:17.450
It’s you, Alan.

314
00:12:17.710 –> 00:12:21.430
I have seen you interact with actors

315
00:12:21.430 –> 00:12:23.450
and through the summer,

316
00:12:23.770 –> 00:12:25.470
we’ve kind of bumped into people here or there

317
00:12:25.470 –> 00:12:29.450
or had interviews and you get so darn excited.

318
00:12:29.650 –> 00:12:32.190
I have never seen you more giddy than when,

319
00:12:32.410 –> 00:12:33.990
even getting that cameo,

320
00:12:34.170 –> 00:12:36.330
the day one, the first cameo.

321
00:12:36.330 –> 00:12:37.010
Tyler Johnson.

322
00:12:37.310 –> 00:12:38.390
That you received.

323
00:12:38.770 –> 00:12:41.970
And that made your entire like year.

324
00:12:42.070 –> 00:12:43.170
Like you were so excited.

325
00:12:43.170 –> 00:12:44.850
Oh, the one you gave me for my birthday

326
00:12:44.850 –> 00:12:45.790
from Nathan Dale.

327
00:12:46.630 –> 00:12:47.770
And you got so excited.

328
00:12:47.910 –> 00:12:50.950
I’m like, this guy is just going to lose his mind

329
00:12:50.950 –> 00:12:52.130
if we go to Sudbury.

330
00:12:52.330 –> 00:12:54.350
And this was just bonus, right?

331
00:12:54.370 –> 00:12:56.270
Like we didn’t even know

332
00:12:56.270 –> 00:12:58.490
that we’re going to be able to get into the studio

333
00:12:58.490 –> 00:13:00.550
and to be able to see the sets and stuff.

334
00:13:00.590 –> 00:13:02.530
So this was just icing on the cake, really.

335
00:13:02.530 –> 00:13:04.650
Yeah, so to go back to that.

336
00:13:04.650 –> 00:13:06.090
So we had this trip planned.

337
00:13:06.730 –> 00:13:08.870
Anyway, we were like, in September,

338
00:13:08.910 –> 00:13:09.870
we’re going to Sudbury.

339
00:13:10.350 –> 00:13:11.510
We’re going to go check out like,

340
00:13:11.630 –> 00:13:13.730
so everything we did yesterday was already planned.

341
00:13:14.290 –> 00:13:19.130
But I sent out an email to the production team

342
00:13:19.130 –> 00:13:23.050
because they sent us that nice gift from Kiso

343
00:13:23.050 –> 00:13:24.570
with the champagne and stuff.

344
00:13:24.830 –> 00:13:26.590
And I said, hey, just so you know,

345
00:13:26.810 –> 00:13:29.730
and we had no idea they were shooting this month here.

346
00:13:29.750 –> 00:13:30.650
We had no idea.

347
00:13:31.010 –> 00:13:32.790
They said, we’re planning on late September

348
00:13:32.790 –> 00:13:34.810
coming up to Sudbury to, you know,

349
00:13:34.870 –> 00:13:36.950
just to do a little bit of a letter Kenny tour.

350
00:13:37.410 –> 00:13:40.030
And they came back to us and said, oh, all right,

351
00:13:40.130 –> 00:13:41.190
well, let’s see what we can do

352
00:13:41.190 –> 00:13:43.130
about getting you access to the studio and stuff.

353
00:13:43.290 –> 00:13:43.750
I’m like, what?

354
00:13:44.130 –> 00:13:45.650
It was volunteer job, it was amazing.

355
00:13:46.610 –> 00:13:48.310
They offered it to us and they said,

356
00:13:48.370 –> 00:13:49.750
whatever you want to do, let us know

357
00:13:49.750 –> 00:13:51.210
and we’ll try to make it happen.

358
00:13:51.630 –> 00:13:53.910
And when I got on the phone with Kara,

359
00:13:54.010 –> 00:13:57.070
she’s a, I think production manager on the set

360
00:13:57.070 –> 00:14:01.950
or on the shows, she said, all right,

361
00:14:01.950 –> 00:14:04.770
well, in the arena, we have this set, we have that set.

362
00:14:04.810 –> 00:14:05.690
And I’m like, what do you want to do?

363
00:14:05.770 –> 00:14:09.050
I’m like, can we record the podcast from the kitchen?

364
00:14:10.350 –> 00:14:11.930
She said, yeah, of course you can.

365
00:14:12.330 –> 00:14:12.690
What?

366
00:14:13.130 –> 00:14:15.730
Like I was just, so yeah, after that,

367
00:14:15.890 –> 00:14:17.990
we got so giddy, we couldn’t wait to come.

368
00:14:18.370 –> 00:14:20.090
We almost didn’t because we had a bit

369
00:14:20.090 –> 00:14:21.710
of a COVID scare in the house.

370
00:14:22.230 –> 00:14:25.230
Thankfully that came up negative and everything was okay.

371
00:14:25.950 –> 00:14:29.170
But wow, like it’s been a whirlwind couple of days.

372
00:14:29.170 –> 00:14:31.270
It’s been, I mean, and it’s our timing.

373
00:14:31.410 –> 00:14:31.990
I mean, it’s fine.

374
00:14:32.110 –> 00:14:34.110
I think our timing allowed us to do this,

375
00:14:34.130 –> 00:14:36.890
but I mean, they wrapped up the most recent season

376
00:14:36.890 –> 00:14:38.330
just like three days ago.

377
00:14:39.250 –> 00:14:41.970
So majority of cast career, everyone’s gone,

378
00:14:43.610 –> 00:14:44.710
which is fine.

379
00:14:44.770 –> 00:14:45.610
We got this act.

380
00:14:45.690 –> 00:14:46.630
I mean, it would have been great to see

381
00:14:46.630 –> 00:14:48.230
a couple of people if we had the opportunity.

382
00:14:48.390 –> 00:14:49.450
But we did meet.

383
00:14:49.770 –> 00:14:50.210
I will, yeah.

384
00:14:50.210 –> 00:14:51.430
Well, we’ll talk about that in a second,

385
00:14:51.450 –> 00:14:53.270
but it was nice even when we arrived here

386
00:14:53.270 –> 00:14:54.870
in the studio today, Kara went out of her ways.

387
00:14:55.010 –> 00:14:57.150
Oh, just so you know, Jared sends his best.

388
00:14:57.150 –> 00:15:00.090
He wants you to know, he’s so happy that we’re here

389
00:15:00.090 –> 00:15:03.550
and thrilled for us because we’re just giddy as fuck.

390
00:15:03.690 –> 00:15:06.970
And so thankful that they’ve given us this opportunity

391
00:15:06.970 –> 00:15:09.090
to come and check this amazing studio out.

392
00:15:09.250 –> 00:15:09.690
Lettery Kenny.

393
00:15:09.950 –> 00:15:11.130
Celebrate them some more, yeah.

394
00:15:12.190 –> 00:15:13.230
Yeah, oh, go ahead, Victor.

395
00:15:13.590 –> 00:15:14.930
No, I was gonna say N. Schorzy.

396
00:15:15.290 –> 00:15:17.170
N. Schorzy, yes, for sure.

397
00:15:17.290 –> 00:15:18.230
Gotta remember that.

398
00:15:19.130 –> 00:15:21.610
Yeah, and part of our plan was to go

399
00:15:21.610 –> 00:15:24.090
to Pitter-Patter Panini, no, sorry,

400
00:15:24.510 –> 00:15:25.470
Peppy Panini yesterday.

401
00:15:25.470 –> 00:15:27.210
I always mix those up.

402
00:15:27.390 –> 00:15:29.690
And so we went and had a really good time.

403
00:15:29.790 –> 00:15:32.170
We tried the Pitter-Patter Panini and it was excellent.

404
00:15:32.270 –> 00:15:33.090
I loved it. It was actually very good.

405
00:15:33.310 –> 00:15:34.290
Victor did not. Some of us.

406
00:15:34.310 –> 00:15:37.130
Yes, Victor did not, forever the contrarian.

407
00:15:37.150 –> 00:15:38.110
Victor, what did you have?

408
00:15:38.470 –> 00:15:41.630
I had the Venetian Veggie.

409
00:15:41.630 –> 00:15:42.090
Okay.

410
00:15:42.850 –> 00:15:47.330
And there was a giant mural painting of Venice.

411
00:15:47.470 –> 00:15:50.650
So I feel like I did them a solid.

412
00:15:50.830 –> 00:15:54.310
There was also a Drake poster, not a poster.

413
00:15:54.310 –> 00:15:56.370
There was like a neon light, it was very cool.

414
00:15:56.710 –> 00:15:58.750
Actually, the vibe at Peppy Panini is really cool.

415
00:15:58.830 –> 00:16:01.270
I was quite impressed by the setup they have in there

416
00:16:01.270 –> 00:16:02.810
and I know they’ve got it with the restaurant

417
00:16:02.810 –> 00:16:04.390
kind of dinner and then they do a nightclub

418
00:16:04.390 –> 00:16:06.890
sort of atmosphere and I can see how that could work.

419
00:16:06.910 –> 00:16:08.270
They’ve got it set up very well.

420
00:16:08.590 –> 00:16:12.430
So we had planned to interview Jay and Julia yesterday.

421
00:16:12.710 –> 00:16:14.730
Unfortunately, scheduled conflict happened

422
00:16:14.730 –> 00:16:16.710
and we couldn’t, but he did come in for a visit.

423
00:16:16.750 –> 00:16:18.550
So we got to meet him in person

424
00:16:18.550 –> 00:16:20.670
and had a really great chat with him

425
00:16:20.670 –> 00:16:21.690
and it was a lot of fun.

426
00:16:21.710 –> 00:16:22.770
We took some pictures with him

427
00:16:22.770 –> 00:16:25.230
and he has promised and committed

428
00:16:25.230 –> 00:16:28.790
that he and Julia will come on a Zoom interview soon.

429
00:16:29.510 –> 00:16:30.450
So stay tuned for that.

430
00:16:30.510 –> 00:16:31.250
It’s still gonna happen.

431
00:16:31.530 –> 00:16:32.690
Just couldn’t make it work yesterday.

432
00:16:32.770 –> 00:16:34.010
I mean, he’s got lots to do.

433
00:16:34.030 –> 00:16:34.950
He’s a business owner.

434
00:16:35.350 –> 00:16:36.650
They just wrapped up letter Kenny.

435
00:16:37.810 –> 00:16:39.450
There’s lots going on in his life.

436
00:16:39.710 –> 00:16:41.310
So we don’t hold it against him.

437
00:16:41.490 –> 00:16:41.830
Oh, for sure.

438
00:16:42.010 –> 00:16:43.350
But we’ll see him eventually.

439
00:16:43.970 –> 00:16:45.090
A very welcoming guy.

440
00:16:45.290 –> 00:16:46.290
He was very nice to come on.

441
00:16:46.510 –> 00:16:48.590
Even in the, again, the scheduling conflict

442
00:16:48.590 –> 00:16:49.370
for him to swing by.

443
00:16:49.610 –> 00:16:51.430
He kind of caught us off guard.

444
00:16:51.430 –> 00:16:52.870
We were sitting at the table eating

445
00:16:52.870 –> 00:16:54.370
and all of a sudden he’s just standing beside us.

446
00:16:54.450 –> 00:16:54.850
Hey.

447
00:16:55.190 –> 00:16:55.590
Hey.

448
00:16:56.510 –> 00:16:58.290
Michelle is still trying to collect her heart.

449
00:16:58.530 –> 00:16:58.950
That’s right.

450
00:16:59.050 –> 00:17:00.250
Michelle was a little starstruck.

451
00:17:00.330 –> 00:17:01.050
It was really cute.

452
00:17:02.030 –> 00:17:03.490
But yeah, he’s a real presence

453
00:17:03.490 –> 00:17:04.750
and he just was very generous

454
00:17:04.750 –> 00:17:06.210
in his time in those moments

455
00:17:06.210 –> 00:17:07.410
and a great conversation.

456
00:17:07.710 –> 00:17:08.890
We’d given up meeting him

457
00:17:08.890 –> 00:17:09.630
because he said,

458
00:17:10.050 –> 00:17:11.810
oh, I don’t think we can come out

459
00:17:11.810 –> 00:17:12.650
for an interview right now.

460
00:17:13.010 –> 00:17:14.130
So I was like, oh, well, well.

461
00:17:14.530 –> 00:17:16.010
But yeah, then he just showed up.

462
00:17:16.450 –> 00:17:19.750
He is such a presence and so many great stories

463
00:17:19.750 –> 00:17:21.530
that we were off air with him

464
00:17:21.530 –> 00:17:23.069
but that he shared with us.

465
00:17:23.310 –> 00:17:25.270
And oh my God, it was just, it was so lovely.

466
00:17:25.630 –> 00:17:25.750
Absolutely.

467
00:17:25.869 –> 00:17:27.990
I know, we’ll talk more about this when we do.

468
00:17:28.050 –> 00:17:29.790
But the one thing he said that made me really laugh

469
00:17:29.790 –> 00:17:32.110
was he’s very self-aware that he is,

470
00:17:32.410 –> 00:17:33.630
he has a look, right?

471
00:17:33.630 –> 00:17:34.850
It’s something that stands out.

472
00:17:34.870 –> 00:17:37.550
And he’s like, it’s no joke that I have a look

473
00:17:37.550 –> 00:17:38.530
that people recognize.

474
00:17:38.550 –> 00:17:40.370
And he’s like, I’ve gone many places

475
00:17:40.370 –> 00:17:41.230
and just out of nowhere.

476
00:17:41.290 –> 00:17:42.630
So I’m gonna come running off the,

477
00:17:42.650 –> 00:17:44.030
running out of the water on the beach

478
00:17:44.030 –> 00:17:45.730
and come up and grab me.

479
00:17:45.810 –> 00:17:47.150
And he’s like, but he’s very humble.

480
00:17:47.310 –> 00:17:49.110
Pick him up and spin him around.

481
00:17:49.110 –> 00:17:51.710
I’m like, oh my God, who would do that?

482
00:17:51.770 –> 00:17:51.970
It was amazing.

483
00:17:52.770 –> 00:17:52.990
Right?

484
00:17:53.550 –> 00:17:54.150
Especially Tyson.

485
00:17:54.330 –> 00:17:55.350
Yeah, who can do that to Tyson?

486
00:17:55.690 –> 00:17:57.610
Even just like taking a picture with him.

487
00:17:57.650 –> 00:18:00.350
I’m like, I don’t wanna touch you, like your body

488
00:18:00.350 –> 00:18:02.690
because I feel like I’d be like,

489
00:18:02.850 –> 00:18:04.670
that would be inappropriate, right?

490
00:18:05.530 –> 00:18:05.990
Oh my.

491
00:18:06.130 –> 00:18:08.590
No, it was a real, a real highlight yesterday

492
00:18:08.590 –> 00:18:10.210
to have a chance to have a quick chat with him.

493
00:18:10.310 –> 00:18:12.530
Yeah, and speaking of Michelle, you know,

494
00:18:12.590 –> 00:18:14.250
Michelle, one of our listeners,

495
00:18:14.250 –> 00:18:16.350
she’s been on the show before.

496
00:18:17.090 –> 00:18:19.650
She’s the forensic expert.

497
00:18:20.630 –> 00:18:21.430
Sudbury resident.

498
00:18:21.670 –> 00:18:22.490
And she lives in Sudbury.

499
00:18:22.590 –> 00:18:24.190
So when we told her we were coming up here,

500
00:18:24.270 –> 00:18:25.810
we’re like, and we’re coming up here

501
00:18:25.810 –> 00:18:27.670
and we got to meet you in person since we’re here.

502
00:18:27.870 –> 00:18:29.610
And so she came out, joined us

503
00:18:29.610 –> 00:18:31.950
and we all went out for a nice dinner afterwards.

504
00:18:31.950 –> 00:18:32.990
And it was a great time.

505
00:18:33.010 –> 00:18:34.910
And then we went to the dog house for some drinks.

506
00:18:35.090 –> 00:18:35.310
Yes.

507
00:18:35.530 –> 00:18:37.450
And yeah, so a lot of fun.

508
00:18:37.830 –> 00:18:39.010
Yeah, we were playing video.

509
00:18:39.230 –> 00:18:43.450
We were doing videos of Shorzy in the dog house

510
00:18:43.450 –> 00:18:46.430
and looking to see, you know, what was different

511
00:18:46.430 –> 00:18:47.890
and what was changed about it.

512
00:18:48.390 –> 00:18:51.810
And at one point, the room went totally quiet

513
00:18:51.810 –> 00:18:54.750
and it was like, the other tables were listening to us

514
00:18:54.750 –> 00:18:58.330
and we became very conscious of the nerds that we were.

515
00:18:59.170 –> 00:19:01.290
Well, it didn’t help that Victor was talking

516
00:19:01.290 –> 00:19:04.210
about Schrodinger’s cat and something like that.

517
00:19:04.250 –> 00:19:06.530
Yeah, the guys behind us did not look very impressed

518
00:19:06.530 –> 00:19:06.870
by the conversation.

519
00:19:06.890 –> 00:19:07.610
What the hell’s going on here?

520
00:19:07.610 –> 00:19:08.650
I’m trying to watch a hockey game

521
00:19:08.650 –> 00:19:10.850
and there’s a guy giving a lecture on particle physics.

522
00:19:11.030 –> 00:19:12.290
No, quantum physics.

523
00:19:13.230 –> 00:19:15.670
Well, there’s a relationship between particle physics

524
00:19:15.670 –> 00:19:16.070
and quantum physics.

525
00:19:16.170 –> 00:19:17.570
Is the cat dead or isn’t the cat dead?

526
00:19:17.570 –> 00:19:17.930
Yeah, yeah.

527
00:19:17.930 –> 00:19:18.870
That’s all I took from it.

528
00:19:19.070 –> 00:19:19.550
That’s it.

529
00:19:20.090 –> 00:19:20.530
I don’t know.

530
00:19:20.710 –> 00:19:21.270
I don’t know.

531
00:19:21.390 –> 00:19:21.870
I don’t know.

532
00:19:22.310 –> 00:19:22.710
That’s the point.

533
00:19:23.130 –> 00:19:26.410
That all came up because we almost lost Victor this week.

534
00:19:26.410 –> 00:19:27.930
Oh yes, we did almost lose Victor.

535
00:19:27.990 –> 00:19:29.250
Oh, that’s right.

536
00:19:29.850 –> 00:19:30.330
That’s right.

537
00:19:30.350 –> 00:19:31.690
Oh, we need to tell that story.

538
00:19:31.710 –> 00:19:32.270
Oh my God.

539
00:19:33.170 –> 00:19:34.510
Do we need to relive it?

540
00:19:34.710 –> 00:19:35.110
I’m gonna relive it.

541
00:19:35.110 –> 00:19:38.490
We were at the original arena,

542
00:19:38.690 –> 00:19:40.170
Lutter, Kenny, Ash arena, I think.

543
00:19:40.210 –> 00:19:41.330
The egg hole, wasn’t it?

544
00:19:41.330 –> 00:19:42.170
The egg hole, yeah.

545
00:19:42.170 –> 00:19:43.010
Oh no, it was at the egg hole.

546
00:19:43.210 –> 00:19:43.470
That’s right.

547
00:19:43.890 –> 00:19:45.270
Right over where they first meet Dickens.

548
00:19:45.530 –> 00:19:47.290
Yeah, and it was actually a really busy place.

549
00:19:47.410 –> 00:19:49.810
Lots of cars there and there’s lots of stuff happening.

550
00:19:49.970 –> 00:19:51.450
It was a Saturday, so there was hockey happening

551
00:19:51.450 –> 00:19:54.370
in the arena and there’s like two or three

552
00:19:54.370 –> 00:19:57.690
baseball diamonds outside and they were all,

553
00:19:57.990 –> 00:19:59.050
they all had a game going.

554
00:19:59.130 –> 00:20:01.390
So it was a very happening, busy place.

555
00:20:02.010 –> 00:20:05.390
And we’re walking back from the field

556
00:20:05.390 –> 00:20:06.690
to get to our cars.

557
00:20:07.310 –> 00:20:09.490
I’m walking ahead of everyone and all I hear is,

558
00:20:09.490 –> 00:20:10.830
heads up, heads up.

559
00:20:10.830 –> 00:20:12.010
I’m like, what?

560
00:20:12.370 –> 00:20:13.010
You hear the crack of the bat.

561
00:20:13.050 –> 00:20:15.530
You hear the crack and someone hit a wild foul ball

562
00:20:15.530 –> 00:20:16.610
and I was in front of it,

563
00:20:16.610 –> 00:20:17.850
because I remember from my angle,

564
00:20:18.330 –> 00:20:20.210
I heard them yelling, I’m like, what, what?

565
00:20:20.210 –> 00:20:24.330
And I look up and I see this big green softball

566
00:20:24.330 –> 00:20:25.690
coming straight at Victor.

567
00:20:26.330 –> 00:20:27.390
And I don’t even have time to react

568
00:20:27.390 –> 00:20:29.290
and it missed him, I swear, by like a foot

569
00:20:29.290 –> 00:20:30.010
and hit the ground beside.

570
00:20:30.450 –> 00:20:31.730
It was, and the thing bounced across.

571
00:20:31.830 –> 00:20:33.370
So I’m like, that was a scary ass moment.

572
00:20:33.730 –> 00:20:35.370
Thankfully nothing happened, but.

573
00:20:35.450 –> 00:20:37.650
It was a parking lot full of cars

574
00:20:37.650 –> 00:20:40.290
and I don’t understand how that ball missed me

575
00:20:40.290 –> 00:20:42.750
or any of the cars, but it was pretty incredible.

576
00:20:42.870 –> 00:20:46.690
And that’s how Schrodinger’s cat came up,

577
00:20:46.890 –> 00:20:48.410
because then I went and picked up the ball

578
00:20:48.410 –> 00:20:50.350
and as I was about to throw it back,

579
00:20:50.670 –> 00:20:52.210
they all immediately ridiculed me,

580
00:20:52.330 –> 00:20:53.850
assuming that I wouldn’t be able to throw the ball.

581
00:20:53.850 –> 00:20:55.590
We just said, don’t embarrass yourself.

582
00:20:55.910 –> 00:20:57.550
Yeah, they assumed I didn’t know how to throw a baseball,

583
00:20:57.610 –> 00:21:01.210
which for the record, I threw a perfect throw back.

584
00:21:01.210 –> 00:21:01.790
It was okay.

585
00:21:02.070 –> 00:21:03.130
It was right to the guy.

586
00:21:03.250 –> 00:21:04.790
You’re still recovering from it.

587
00:21:05.010 –> 00:21:06.650
Well, my arm’s a little sore, but it’s not the point.

588
00:21:06.890 –> 00:21:08.130
And your shoulder cracks.

589
00:21:08.350 –> 00:21:09.510
That was the other shoulder.

590
00:21:09.510 –> 00:21:11.270
At the bar, your shoulder cracked

591
00:21:11.270 –> 00:21:12.910
and then it brought on the whole.

592
00:21:12.970 –> 00:21:14.430
Anyway, before you threw it,

593
00:21:14.430 –> 00:21:17.270
that ball was either gonna be a bad throw or a good throw.

594
00:21:17.610 –> 00:21:20.290
So that’s how the Schrodinger’s cat came into play.

595
00:21:20.450 –> 00:21:23.290
That’s how particle physics or quantum physics

596
00:21:23.290 –> 00:21:24.090
came into our.

597
00:21:24.590 –> 00:21:26.450
Will I throw the ball or will I not throw the ball?

598
00:21:26.970 –> 00:21:29.050
Because Al, you grabbed your phone right away

599
00:21:29.050 –> 00:21:30.750
and you’re like, I gotta videotape this.

600
00:21:31.210 –> 00:21:32.010
I know, I was fumbling with my phone

601
00:21:32.010 –> 00:21:33.010
because I wanna video this

602
00:21:33.010 –> 00:21:35.470
because either it’s gonna be an awesome epic throw

603
00:21:35.470 –> 00:21:36.630
or an epic fail.

604
00:21:36.670 –> 00:21:38.390
It’s not will you or will you not.

605
00:21:38.390 –> 00:21:39.810
It’s will you fail or not.

606
00:21:40.550 –> 00:21:42.970
Well, I succeeded, so the cat’s alive.

607
00:21:43.110 –> 00:21:44.130
You did, you did.

608
00:21:44.370 –> 00:21:46.410
I didn’t get the video, but there’s no evidence of it.

609
00:21:46.410 –> 00:21:47.110
There’s no proof.

610
00:21:47.170 –> 00:21:47.830
I don’t need to prove shit.

611
00:21:47.830 –> 00:21:49.090
So it could be our word against yours.

612
00:21:49.210 –> 00:21:51.610
We could all just get together and say, yeah.

613
00:21:52.010 –> 00:21:52.410
Circumstantial.

614
00:21:53.210 –> 00:21:53.610
Circumstantial.

615
00:21:54.150 –> 00:21:56.990
And then the story goes, and then Matt threw it

616
00:21:56.990 –> 00:22:00.150
and it hit a carb, not because of the bat.

617
00:22:00.990 –> 00:22:02.470
That’s a real story right now.

618
00:22:03.590 –> 00:22:04.770
It was an excellent throw.

619
00:22:05.290 –> 00:22:05.910
It was.

620
00:22:06.090 –> 00:22:07.550
All right, well, let’s go around the table here

621
00:22:07.550 –> 00:22:08.570
and let’s talk about the weekend.

622
00:22:08.830 –> 00:22:11.290
Victor, what was your, I don’t know why I’m asking this.

623
00:22:11.290 –> 00:22:12.670
Yeah, no, let’s do a rant first.

624
00:22:12.670 –> 00:22:14.130
What was the highlight of your weekend?

625
00:22:14.890 –> 00:22:16.270
There’s actually lots of highlights,

626
00:22:16.270 –> 00:22:21.090
but I think chasing the train on a highway was fun.

627
00:22:21.130 –> 00:22:22.490
Pay attention to his phrase in there.

628
00:22:22.770 –> 00:22:24.070
Chasing the train.

629
00:22:24.830 –> 00:22:26.550
If you don’t follow us on Twitter, you should.

630
00:22:26.670 –> 00:22:28.770
There’s a video of us on Twitter

631
00:22:28.770 –> 00:22:31.230
and Victor’s geeking out over this train.

632
00:22:31.490 –> 00:22:32.830
Knew the model of it and everything.

633
00:22:32.930 –> 00:22:35.730
Oh, it’s a whatever model train.

634
00:22:35.730 –> 00:22:36.570
Yeah, yeah.

635
00:22:36.570 –> 00:22:38.530
I think I was actually wrong.

636
00:22:38.670 –> 00:22:41.750
I said it was a GP38, but I think it was an AC4400.

637
00:22:42.110 –> 00:22:42.690
How dare you?

638
00:22:42.770 –> 00:22:44.490
You’ve now been excommunicated from the train community.

639
00:22:44.490 –> 00:22:45.910
Josh is not gonna be happy with you.

640
00:22:47.470 –> 00:22:50.850
Going 100K or whatever, it’s hard to catch him.

641
00:22:50.850 –> 00:22:51.970
How fast you thought we were going?

642
00:22:52.130 –> 00:22:52.670
I don’t know.

643
00:22:52.830 –> 00:22:53.690
I was looking at the train.

644
00:22:53.710 –> 00:22:56.510
From the back of the van, it’s all obscure.

645
00:22:56.530 –> 00:22:57.090
It’s all a blur.

646
00:22:57.870 –> 00:22:59.410
The back goes faster than the front.

647
00:22:59.710 –> 00:23:01.170
So would you say, because of that,

648
00:23:01.230 –> 00:23:03.610
after that experience, you could have died happily?

649
00:23:03.730 –> 00:23:04.170
Oh, no.

650
00:23:04.170 –> 00:23:05.850
Because it was literally 10 minutes later,

651
00:23:05.850 –> 00:23:06.470
you almost died.

652
00:23:06.790 –> 00:23:08.890
You were genuinely so excited.

653
00:23:08.970 –> 00:23:10.230
You were like, this is the highlight.

654
00:23:10.310 –> 00:23:11.350
Well, it wasn’t just the train.

655
00:23:11.470 –> 00:23:13.050
It’s the fact that there’s a train crossing

656
00:23:13.050 –> 00:23:14.650
every second light.

657
00:23:15.490 –> 00:23:19.010
And it’s hard to make any rhyme or reason out of it.

658
00:23:19.310 –> 00:23:21.010
It’s like the trains just go everywhere.

659
00:23:21.190 –> 00:23:23.570
It’s like a Mexican train dominoes,

660
00:23:23.570 –> 00:23:24.370
if anyone’s played it.

661
00:23:24.570 –> 00:23:26.530
Logistically, we’ve been talking about this

662
00:23:26.530 –> 00:23:27.030
last weekend.

663
00:23:27.170 –> 00:23:29.790
There are tracks going every which way through this town.

664
00:23:29.850 –> 00:23:31.330
I don’t know how they’re not hitting each other.

665
00:23:31.570 –> 00:23:33.230
And these are freight train tracks.

666
00:23:33.230 –> 00:23:34.770
It’s not passenger train.

667
00:23:35.150 –> 00:23:35.690
They are.

668
00:23:35.710 –> 00:23:36.330
They’re everywhere.

669
00:23:36.630 –> 00:23:39.350
We were making a joke that we could definitely

670
00:23:39.350 –> 00:23:40.690
make a drinking game out of it.

671
00:23:41.570 –> 00:23:43.130
As long as the driver wasn’t involved in this, of course.

672
00:23:43.130 –> 00:23:44.850
I was going to say, we would have been so drunk.

673
00:23:45.230 –> 00:23:46.790
Anyway, so that’s the highlight is the train.

674
00:23:46.790 –> 00:23:48.170
We’re here for letter Kenny shit,

675
00:23:48.250 –> 00:23:49.010
and the highlight’s the train.

676
00:23:49.830 –> 00:23:52.270
My second highlight is also not letter Kenny related.

677
00:23:52.430 –> 00:23:53.370
But I’m not going to say it,

678
00:23:53.370 –> 00:23:55.050
because I feel like as you go around the table,

679
00:23:55.090 –> 00:23:56.410
somebody will bring up that story.

680
00:23:56.670 –> 00:23:57.490
So I’ll pause.

681
00:23:58.610 –> 00:23:59.530
All right, what about today?

682
00:23:59.750 –> 00:24:01.150
I mean, what did you think of the farm?

683
00:24:01.150 –> 00:24:03.590
I mean, like, you know, Matt said what I said,

684
00:24:03.590 –> 00:24:06.010
it’s like stepping into a television show.

685
00:24:06.350 –> 00:24:08.630
It’s just, it’s very surreal.

686
00:24:09.530 –> 00:24:10.470
And it’s funny, right?

687
00:24:10.710 –> 00:24:12.970
Going to the farm is like seeing the outside,

688
00:24:13.070 –> 00:24:14.750
and then coming here is seeing the inside.

689
00:24:15.170 –> 00:24:18.030
And I don’t know, it’s just really, really

690
00:24:18.030 –> 00:24:20.130
out of body kind of experiences.

691
00:24:20.170 –> 00:24:21.770
It’s just very, very neat.

692
00:24:21.930 –> 00:24:24.210
I can’t wait to go back and start watching

693
00:24:24.210 –> 00:24:26.730
these episodes in a different way.

694
00:24:27.350 –> 00:24:29.190
It will be more personal.

695
00:24:29.190 –> 00:24:30.930
It will be more personal.

696
00:24:31.130 –> 00:24:34.070
I think I’ll have a different connection to it.

697
00:24:34.070 –> 00:24:35.810
So yeah, I’m really looking forward to that

698
00:24:35.810 –> 00:24:37.450
for both letter Kenny and Shorzy.

699
00:24:37.610 –> 00:24:38.090
Yeah.

700
00:24:38.150 –> 00:24:41.370
Linda, I mean, you’re not as fervent a fan

701
00:24:41.370 –> 00:24:43.810
as maybe we are, but what did you think of the weekend?

702
00:24:43.850 –> 00:24:44.630
What’s your highlight?

703
00:24:45.150 –> 00:24:46.850
First, the whole weekend was amazing.

704
00:24:46.990 –> 00:24:49.170
But I have to say the highlight is being here

705
00:24:49.170 –> 00:24:51.210
right now in the kitchen around this table

706
00:24:51.210 –> 00:24:53.890
and being included in this podcast.

707
00:24:53.970 –> 00:24:55.290
It’s very special for me.

708
00:24:55.290 –> 00:24:55.990
Thank you guys.

709
00:24:56.090 –> 00:24:57.730
It’s a wonderful experience.

710
00:24:57.730 –> 00:25:02.390
But also I just find it that it’s getting caught up

711
00:25:02.390 –> 00:25:04.010
in the fantasy of just being here

712
00:25:04.010 –> 00:25:06.190
where I have to go to the washroom

713
00:25:06.190 –> 00:25:08.350
and then I go over there to the washroom,

714
00:25:08.390 –> 00:25:10.650
but it’s not really a washroom.

715
00:25:12.310 –> 00:25:14.050
Or I’m thinking, I’m going to go upstairs,

716
00:25:14.130 –> 00:25:14.870
see what’s upstairs.

717
00:25:14.930 –> 00:25:15.830
There’s no upstairs.

718
00:25:16.410 –> 00:25:16.590
Yeah, there’s no upstairs.

719
00:25:16.610 –> 00:25:18.130
It’s just the fantasy of it all.

720
00:25:18.570 –> 00:25:19.410
It’s really cool.

721
00:25:19.850 –> 00:25:21.970
Though curiously, curiously,

722
00:25:22.030 –> 00:25:24.170
in the Shorzy set bathroom,

723
00:25:24.170 –> 00:25:27.750
it did suspiciously smell of urine.

724
00:25:28.130 –> 00:25:29.150
Very authentic.

725
00:25:29.750 –> 00:25:30.630
It was very authentic.

726
00:25:30.650 –> 00:25:33.190
Maybe the rap party might’ve gotten a little unhinged

727
00:25:33.190 –> 00:25:33.930
here with the crew.

728
00:25:34.130 –> 00:25:34.730
I don’t know.

729
00:25:34.730 –> 00:25:35.090
Yes.

730
00:25:36.050 –> 00:25:39.250
Tan, before we ask you your highlight,

731
00:25:39.510 –> 00:25:41.090
kudos to you and your duo, Tang,

732
00:25:41.130 –> 00:25:42.470
because you kind of,

733
00:25:43.090 –> 00:25:45.730
you planned the whole weekend down to the,

734
00:25:45.730 –> 00:25:47.050
the itinerary is yours.

735
00:25:47.350 –> 00:25:49.250
Everything about this was your doing.

736
00:25:49.650 –> 00:25:50.230
Well done.

737
00:25:50.610 –> 00:25:51.170
Thank you.

738
00:25:52.130 –> 00:25:53.230
What’s been your highlight?

739
00:25:53.230 –> 00:25:54.250
This is what I do.

740
00:25:54.330 –> 00:25:56.130
I’m a planner and I’m a mom.

741
00:25:57.030 –> 00:25:57.710
I totally,

742
00:25:58.270 –> 00:26:00.110
I totally momed out on this.

743
00:26:00.410 –> 00:26:01.010
Oh, she did, yes.

744
00:26:01.190 –> 00:26:02.990
Like granola bars and water.

745
00:26:03.230 –> 00:26:04.270
And like, I knew,

746
00:26:04.270 –> 00:26:06.670
know that there’s some sweet tooths in the room.

747
00:26:06.710 –> 00:26:08.130
So I had like some chocolates.

748
00:26:08.490 –> 00:26:08.910
Not some chocolate.

749
00:26:08.910 –> 00:26:11.490
You had a whole fucking tub of M&Ms,

750
00:26:11.630 –> 00:26:12.830
like chocolate covered M&Ms.

751
00:26:12.910 –> 00:26:13.410
It was crazy.

752
00:26:13.750 –> 00:26:14.450
Yeah, yeah.

753
00:26:14.450 –> 00:26:16.270
I totally momed this whole thing.

754
00:26:16.530 –> 00:26:17.630
I didn’t have my kids here.

755
00:26:17.670 –> 00:26:20.530
So everybody became my children, I think, at this point.

756
00:26:20.770 –> 00:26:21.890
And oh my God,

757
00:26:21.890 –> 00:26:24.290
there’s so many fun little moments

758
00:26:24.290 –> 00:26:26.590
that we have had and shared already on this trip.

759
00:26:26.670 –> 00:26:28.770
One of them was, I think what you were thinking,

760
00:26:29.650 –> 00:26:30.590
we decided,

761
00:26:31.010 –> 00:26:32.550
we were doing some Letter Kenny stuff

762
00:26:32.550 –> 00:26:34.210
and we were also doing some sight,

763
00:26:34.610 –> 00:26:36.430
seeing Sudbury stuff, Sudbury.

764
00:26:37.210 –> 00:26:41.150
And we went over to Bell Park

765
00:26:42.010 –> 00:26:43.370
and we, you know,

766
00:26:43.490 –> 00:26:47.230
this is when you shouldn’t listen always to Waze

767
00:26:47.230 –> 00:26:49.490
and the instructions it gives you

768
00:26:49.490 –> 00:26:50.330
to getting into things.

769
00:26:50.330 –> 00:26:51.750
I don’t think Waze had any take in this one.

770
00:26:51.750 –> 00:26:55.390
Well, it said turn and your location’s on the right.

771
00:26:55.730 –> 00:26:56.610
So location on the right.

772
00:26:56.790 –> 00:26:57.690
And then we turned right.

773
00:26:57.950 –> 00:27:01.070
And then Linda was my co-pilot here.

774
00:27:01.070 –> 00:27:05.030
And we went in and it was a weird kind of entrance.

775
00:27:05.050 –> 00:27:05.570
And we’re like,

776
00:27:05.590 –> 00:27:09.090
oh, this is like the Canada’s largest mural.

777
00:27:10.170 –> 00:27:10.950
And so we were,

778
00:27:11.030 –> 00:27:11.510
and I’m like,

779
00:27:11.530 –> 00:27:15.630
oh, there’s the helicopter pad from the old DC.

780
00:27:15.810 –> 00:27:17.090
I’m going to give him a seizure.

781
00:27:19.970 –> 00:27:20.970
Helicopter pad.

782
00:27:20.970 –> 00:27:23.910
It can be also called a helicopter pad.

783
00:27:24.050 –> 00:27:25.870
I like using the whole word.

784
00:27:26.130 –> 00:27:27.810
Don’t try to backpedal on this one.

785
00:27:28.770 –> 00:27:32.530
So yeah, it quickly became apparent to us

786
00:27:32.530 –> 00:27:35.470
that we were no longer on a road

787
00:27:35.470 –> 00:27:37.370
that we should be driving on

788
00:27:37.370 –> 00:27:39.190
or a path that we should be driving on.

789
00:27:39.270 –> 00:27:41.650
But we didn’t really give up on that path

790
00:27:41.650 –> 00:27:45.350
until much further into the park

791
00:27:45.350 –> 00:27:46.170
where we’re like,

792
00:27:46.210 –> 00:27:48.430
there was no sign indicating cars.

793
00:27:48.550 –> 00:27:50.650
There was a sign saying no bikes.

794
00:27:51.390 –> 00:27:54.250
But there was nothing saying no cars.

795
00:27:54.610 –> 00:27:56.190
And we just continued on.

796
00:27:56.630 –> 00:27:58.210
And until we had some-

797
00:27:58.210 –> 00:27:58.630
But to be clear,

798
00:27:58.650 –> 00:27:59.510
you continued on,

799
00:27:59.590 –> 00:28:00.190
you were driving.

800
00:28:00.190 –> 00:28:01.170
We had some people-

801
00:28:01.170 –> 00:28:02.090
Leave us out of this.

802
00:28:02.270 –> 00:28:03.510
We had some people,

803
00:28:04.510 –> 00:28:06.310
oh, I’m going to change my angle here.

804
00:28:06.670 –> 00:28:07.010
We had some people-

805
00:28:07.010 –> 00:28:08.530
No, you’re recording the whole thing right now.

806
00:28:08.730 –> 00:28:10.170
Oh, here, I’ll just turn that one off.

807
00:28:10.770 –> 00:28:14.130
Yeah, we had some people walking along the path

808
00:28:14.130 –> 00:28:15.170
coming towards us.

809
00:28:15.190 –> 00:28:17.350
So we decided we should probably ask,

810
00:28:17.950 –> 00:28:21.410
is this something that opens up into a parking lot?

811
00:28:21.450 –> 00:28:21.990
And they’re like,

812
00:28:22.290 –> 00:28:25.070
we feel that this is not a driving.

813
00:28:25.390 –> 00:28:25.890
And we’re like-

814
00:28:25.890 –> 00:28:27.130
So we don’t feel this is right.

815
00:28:27.270 –> 00:28:28.830
We don’t feel this is right.

816
00:28:29.410 –> 00:28:30.570
So yeah, we did some-

817
00:28:30.570 –> 00:28:31.290
In their head,

818
00:28:31.390 –> 00:28:31.830
they were saying,

819
00:28:32.110 –> 00:28:33.370
what are you, a fucking moron?

820
00:28:33.650 –> 00:28:36.070
This is clearly a hiking-biking path.

821
00:28:36.210 –> 00:28:37.290
What are you doing on this?

822
00:28:37.290 –> 00:28:39.050
There was a cyclist that I swear in Toronto

823
00:28:39.050 –> 00:28:40.270
would have given me the finger,

824
00:28:40.270 –> 00:28:40.590
but here-

825
00:28:40.590 –> 00:28:41.630
Oh, you’d have broken your side view mirror.

826
00:28:43.710 –> 00:28:45.510
But here, he was like,

827
00:28:45.510 –> 00:28:46.630
did a double check

828
00:28:46.630 –> 00:28:48.070
and then just laughed at me.

829
00:28:49.290 –> 00:28:50.850
I watched him very closely.

830
00:28:51.010 –> 00:28:53.370
He went through multiple stages of emotion,

831
00:28:53.670 –> 00:28:55.010
where it started with anger,

832
00:28:55.170 –> 00:28:56.830
like he was gonna lose his mind,

833
00:28:56.870 –> 00:28:59.450
and then I think he recognized that we were lost,

834
00:28:59.650 –> 00:29:02.310
and then it went from annoyance to laughter.

835
00:29:02.450 –> 00:29:04.710
He went through a whole cycle in that moment,

836
00:29:04.710 –> 00:29:06.490
and then just waved us off and kept going.

837
00:29:06.490 –> 00:29:08.290
Maybe this is a driving part.

838
00:29:08.610 –> 00:29:09.090
Maybe he can go through with the car.

839
00:29:09.090 –> 00:29:11.510
We’re pretty sure about what he thought about it,

840
00:29:11.510 –> 00:29:13.610
because on our way back, while we’re walking,

841
00:29:14.470 –> 00:29:16.130
we did a little visualization.

842
00:29:16.130 –> 00:29:17.510
I think it was Victor who said,

843
00:29:17.750 –> 00:29:18.670
okay, we’re walking now,

844
00:29:18.790 –> 00:29:21.650
and just the thought of somebody coming towards us

845
00:29:21.650 –> 00:29:23.510
in a van now seems so ridiculous.

846
00:29:24.670 –> 00:29:26.130
It just seems so wrong.

847
00:29:26.670 –> 00:29:28.410
Yeah, so that was a fun little moment.

848
00:29:28.930 –> 00:29:30.630
And then I had to pull a meter

849
00:29:30.630 –> 00:29:34.310
where I had to drive backwards out of the whole damn thing

850
00:29:34.310 –> 00:29:36.010
in order to get back around.

851
00:29:36.490 –> 00:29:38.310
So that was a fun little part.

852
00:29:38.870 –> 00:29:40.250
Oh my goodness, what was I gonna say?

853
00:29:40.350 –> 00:29:41.390
So part of that tour

854
00:29:41.390 –> 00:29:44.230
was supposedly a non-lettered Kenny part,

855
00:29:44.230 –> 00:29:45.350
but we later on found out

856
00:29:45.350 –> 00:29:49.650
that Belle Park is actually where the soft,

857
00:29:49.650 –> 00:29:52.490
yeah, the soft date portion of relationships

858
00:29:52.490 –> 00:29:53.590
happened at that park.

859
00:29:53.590 –> 00:29:55.530
Glenn was serving ice cream.

860
00:29:55.690 –> 00:29:57.090
He was working at the ice cream truck.

861
00:29:57.370 –> 00:29:58.290
So who knew?

862
00:29:59.170 –> 00:30:01.210
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that was so much fun.

863
00:30:01.590 –> 00:30:03.490
Oh, there’s been so many funny moments.

864
00:30:03.550 –> 00:30:07.210
And then Matt and I, the whole champagne.

865
00:30:08.210 –> 00:30:09.970
So as our listeners know,

866
00:30:11.450 –> 00:30:14.390
we were gifted a bottle of Dom Perignon

867
00:30:14.390 –> 00:30:16.650
from Jared.

868
00:30:17.310 –> 00:30:20.810
And we decided this would be the best place

869
00:30:20.810 –> 00:30:22.630
to crack it open.

870
00:30:22.670 –> 00:30:25.910
And we’re in Sudbury and we were in our hotel,

871
00:30:25.950 –> 00:30:28.190
but we didn’t bring champagne glasses.

872
00:30:28.830 –> 00:30:31.150
I brought the bottle, but I forgot the glasses.

873
00:30:31.250 –> 00:30:32.510
And I was like, okay,

874
00:30:32.630 –> 00:30:34.930
would the glasses would break if I brought, anyways.

875
00:30:35.410 –> 00:30:38.270
So there was a dollar store, which is so sad,

876
00:30:38.690 –> 00:30:40.330
like an expensive bottle.

877
00:30:40.470 –> 00:30:42.710
We have a very expensive bottle of champagne.

878
00:30:42.730 –> 00:30:43.830
And now we’re contemplating

879
00:30:43.830 –> 00:30:46.410
the dollar store to get drinking.

880
00:30:46.890 –> 00:30:47.670
Yeah, champagne flutes.

881
00:30:47.950 –> 00:30:50.190
Because there was glasses in the hotel,

882
00:30:50.430 –> 00:30:52.950
but those were like water glasses.

883
00:30:53.530 –> 00:30:54.730
And I think they were holding out on us

884
00:30:54.730 –> 00:30:55.910
because we did call the desks and say,

885
00:30:55.970 –> 00:30:57.910
hey, can you send up some, even wine glasses?

886
00:30:58.210 –> 00:30:59.290
And they said, no.

887
00:30:59.510 –> 00:31:02.350
I’m like, come on, there’s some where you’re just,

888
00:31:02.610 –> 00:31:02.770
you’re lying.

889
00:31:03.550 –> 00:31:05.890
So that was quite funny.

890
00:31:06.230 –> 00:31:08.190
Matt and I ran down to the dollar store

891
00:31:08.190 –> 00:31:11.490
and contemplated which glass would be appropriate

892
00:31:11.490 –> 00:31:12.710
for said bottle.

893
00:31:12.710 –> 00:31:13.970
For a very long time.

894
00:31:14.070 –> 00:31:15.690
It was a real mission.

895
00:31:15.850 –> 00:31:19.030
We had multiple in our hands, including plastic ones.

896
00:31:19.670 –> 00:31:21.330
There’s something you need to know about Tanya

897
00:31:21.330 –> 00:31:22.310
and the dollar store.

898
00:31:22.870 –> 00:31:24.810
We talk about the Protosan portal.

899
00:31:25.030 –> 00:31:29.570
To Tanya, any dollar store is a time warp portal.

900
00:31:29.790 –> 00:31:31.550
She’ll walk into a dollar store

901
00:31:31.550 –> 00:31:35.490
and be in there for an hour and not know it.

902
00:31:35.510 –> 00:31:36.450
She’ll come up going, what?

903
00:31:36.470 –> 00:31:37.390
I was only a few minutes.

904
00:31:37.550 –> 00:31:39.370
I’m like, you were in there for a fucking hour.

905
00:31:39.490 –> 00:31:42.150
And how do you spend like $150 at a dollar store?

906
00:31:42.150 –> 00:31:43.690
What I can justify this visit,

907
00:31:44.030 –> 00:31:46.910
there was some serious contemplation going on.

908
00:31:47.250 –> 00:31:49.030
And ultimately, I mean, I feel good about our decision.

909
00:31:49.190 –> 00:31:52.130
We ended up going with the most expensive options

910
00:31:52.130 –> 00:31:55.950
they had for four dollar champagne flutes.

911
00:31:56.510 –> 00:31:58.690
And we also, because of our situation,

912
00:31:58.930 –> 00:32:01.030
bought dish soap and a scrubby brush

913
00:32:01.030 –> 00:32:04.470
because we needed to clean said four dollar flutes.

914
00:32:04.570 –> 00:32:07.090
But all of that, it was a pretty hilarious moment.

915
00:32:07.350 –> 00:32:09.170
And I was in my flip flops.

916
00:32:09.170 –> 00:32:09.610
Anyway.

917
00:32:11.330 –> 00:32:12.110
Oh my goodness.

918
00:32:12.150 –> 00:32:13.530
Yeah, it was just so much fun.

919
00:32:13.770 –> 00:32:18.490
And just meeting Jay and Michelle.

920
00:32:19.150 –> 00:32:20.750
And it’s just, it’s been so much fun.

921
00:32:20.850 –> 00:32:21.510
Just so much fun.

922
00:32:21.570 –> 00:32:25.470
And you guys being here and Linda being my co-pilot

923
00:32:25.470 –> 00:32:29.570
and Victor just losing his mind with the trains.

924
00:32:29.750 –> 00:32:31.170
It’s just been so, and even going,

925
00:32:31.410 –> 00:32:34.710
oh, even the, there happened to be a market

926
00:32:34.710 –> 00:32:37.110
over at the community center

927
00:32:37.110 –> 00:32:38.490
when we were taking the photos.

928
00:32:39.090 –> 00:32:40.890
It doubled as a train station.

929
00:32:41.070 –> 00:32:42.610
I’m like, totally did that on purpose.

930
00:32:43.130 –> 00:32:44.250
Like time that out proper.

931
00:32:44.530 –> 00:32:46.030
And there was trains coming and going

932
00:32:46.030 –> 00:32:47.810
and we lost Victor at one point.

933
00:32:47.950 –> 00:32:49.650
And it was like, oh, that’s where he is.

934
00:32:49.650 –> 00:32:50.710
He’s looking at the trains.

935
00:32:52.750 –> 00:32:53.530
So much fun.

936
00:32:53.710 –> 00:32:54.710
All right, Matt, how about you?

937
00:32:54.890 –> 00:32:55.830
What’s your highlight so far?

938
00:32:55.830 –> 00:32:56.370
It’s just so fun.

939
00:32:56.510 –> 00:32:58.590
So the honest answer is you guys.

940
00:32:59.110 –> 00:33:00.830
That, I mean, it’s a full reality.

941
00:33:01.150 –> 00:33:02.210
No, no, no, it’s a full reality.

942
00:33:02.350 –> 00:33:05.390
This is, I have laughed so hard the last couple,

943
00:33:05.490 –> 00:33:07.770
like especially all the, like, oh my God, I just,

944
00:33:07.770 –> 00:33:09.710
we have done nothing but laugh.

945
00:33:10.730 –> 00:33:12.690
And Al, you kept saying you wish you had a recorder on

946
00:33:12.690 –> 00:33:13.130
when we were in the van.

947
00:33:13.150 –> 00:33:13.890
Oh my God.

948
00:33:14.070 –> 00:33:16.130
The conversations I wish we had captured.

949
00:33:17.070 –> 00:33:18.490
Just as, if you think they’re ridiculous

950
00:33:18.490 –> 00:33:20.770
sometimes on the show, take it up a level.

951
00:33:20.990 –> 00:33:21.750
They were, they were out.

952
00:33:21.830 –> 00:33:23.190
Just the conversation between you

953
00:33:23.190 –> 00:33:24.690
and your little new friend in the car.

954
00:33:25.070 –> 00:33:26.030
Oh my God.

955
00:33:26.190 –> 00:33:26.630
Oh yeah, the car.

956
00:33:26.630 –> 00:33:27.630
Something’s wrong with their van.

957
00:33:27.710 –> 00:33:28.670
They need to get it checked out.

958
00:33:28.810 –> 00:33:30.690
It makes this weird, creepy knocking sound

959
00:33:30.690 –> 00:33:31.870
every time they turn it on.

960
00:33:31.950 –> 00:33:34.590
And it scared the shit out of me at least four times.

961
00:33:35.330 –> 00:33:36.790
It’s right beside you.

962
00:33:36.790 –> 00:33:38.250
It’s right beside me in the back seat.

963
00:33:38.410 –> 00:33:39.390
You’re this little.

964
00:33:42.570 –> 00:33:43.650
Every time you start the car.

965
00:33:43.650 –> 00:33:44.970
Like there’s a little child,

966
00:33:45.170 –> 00:33:46.990
there’s a child tapping on the window.

967
00:33:47.210 –> 00:33:48.390
I see you.

968
00:33:49.090 –> 00:33:50.530
I see you in there.

969
00:33:50.530 –> 00:33:52.830
That’s the real reason he couldn’t sleep last night.

970
00:33:53.010 –> 00:33:53.270
Oh my God.

971
00:33:53.710 –> 00:33:55.050
It was amazing, man.

972
00:33:55.170 –> 00:33:57.790
There was, that sound will haunt your nightmares forever.

973
00:33:58.130 –> 00:33:58.490
Oh my God.

974
00:33:58.610 –> 00:33:59.050
But yeah.

975
00:33:59.050 –> 00:34:00.210
And I knew it was coming.

976
00:34:00.250 –> 00:34:02.070
And then I would watch you in the mirror

977
00:34:02.070 –> 00:34:03.750
to see it, cause you would jump again.

978
00:34:04.290 –> 00:34:06.170
By about the eighth time I got used to it,

979
00:34:06.170 –> 00:34:08.350
but it took me, there was a growth period there.

980
00:34:09.449 –> 00:34:10.110
But no, it’s true.

981
00:34:10.590 –> 00:34:12.110
Like the time, like yesterday, and that’s funny.

982
00:34:12.230 –> 00:34:14.870
We’re doing this tour and going to all these locations

983
00:34:14.870 –> 00:34:16.389
and it’s right now, it’s Sudbury, right?

984
00:34:16.409 –> 00:34:17.790
It’s their locations.

985
00:34:18.250 –> 00:34:19.889
And we went to some of the older ones

986
00:34:19.889 –> 00:34:22.050
and they’re a little beaten up to say.

987
00:34:22.690 –> 00:34:23.270
Oh yeah.

988
00:34:23.350 –> 00:34:25.090
All this stuff from season one is,

989
00:34:25.310 –> 00:34:26.850
yeah, it’s a part of Sudbury that’s,

990
00:34:26.949 –> 00:34:28.290
it’s a little sad actually to be there.

991
00:34:28.290 –> 00:34:29.409
It is a little sad.

992
00:34:29.469 –> 00:34:30.449
And it’s hard to sometimes,

993
00:34:30.710 –> 00:34:32.510
when you don’t see all the stuff there,

994
00:34:32.550 –> 00:34:34.770
it’s hard to see beyond it and realize this was it.

995
00:34:34.770 –> 00:34:36.870
As you kind of have to really put yourself in that fantasy

996
00:34:36.870 –> 00:34:39.429
as you described it and say, this is where it was, right?

997
00:34:39.449 –> 00:34:40.429
So we went to a whole bunch of things.

998
00:34:40.570 –> 00:34:42.650
So I had some struggles at a few of those yesterday.

999
00:34:42.670 –> 00:34:43.810
It was still cool to go around,

1000
00:34:43.889 –> 00:34:45.150
but hanging with you guys was the best.

1001
00:34:45.570 –> 00:34:47.870
And then Michelle, of course, and now today,

1002
00:34:49.110 –> 00:34:51.290
you guys saw it, I got really giddy.

1003
00:34:51.370 –> 00:34:52.469
So the farm was really cool,

1004
00:34:52.469 –> 00:34:54.690
but as soon as I stepped into the arena,

1005
00:34:54.810 –> 00:34:57.330
I did this little dance and I’ve done it

1006
00:34:57.330 –> 00:34:59.430
multiple times as I stepped into the various sets.

1007
00:34:59.470 –> 00:35:01.130
Well, even now it’s getting ready to record.

1008
00:35:01.230 –> 00:35:02.710
You couldn’t wait to start recording.

1009
00:35:02.710 –> 00:35:03.430
Oh my God.

1010
00:35:03.430 –> 00:35:04.990
Kind of annoying, actually.

1011
00:35:04.990 –> 00:35:06.750
It’s okay, I’ll take it, man.

1012
00:35:06.950 –> 00:35:08.470
This is like, it’s-

1013
00:35:08.470 –> 00:35:09.550
The squirrely jig.

1014
00:35:09.850 –> 00:35:12.030
Yeah, we’re behind the cloth now

1015
00:35:12.030 –> 00:35:15.830
and you’re seeing the sets and you’re just walking around.

1016
00:35:15.950 –> 00:35:17.430
Like the Shorsie thing was amazing.

1017
00:35:17.650 –> 00:35:20.150
Into Stuart’s basement, oh my gosh, Stuart.

1018
00:35:21.050 –> 00:35:22.610
And now into the kitchen.

1019
00:35:22.730 –> 00:35:23.150
I couldn’t help it.

1020
00:35:23.150 –> 00:35:24.050
I’m looking at everything.

1021
00:35:24.230 –> 00:35:25.470
Like I’m opening cupboard doors

1022
00:35:25.470 –> 00:35:26.470
and there’s nothing there.

1023
00:35:26.470 –> 00:35:27.270
It’s amazing.

1024
00:35:27.570 –> 00:35:28.210
There’s little-

1025
00:35:28.210 –> 00:35:29.470
There’s actually no cupboard.

1026
00:35:29.550 –> 00:35:30.410
It’s just wood.

1027
00:35:30.550 –> 00:35:32.230
Yeah, they’re just faced.

1028
00:35:32.230 –> 00:35:34.830
There’s nothing behind it, which makes sense.

1029
00:35:34.870 –> 00:35:35.350
Why would you?

1030
00:35:35.410 –> 00:35:36.450
There’s no need for it.

1031
00:35:37.030 –> 00:35:39.170
But the little details you never see

1032
00:35:39.170 –> 00:35:39.910
as we’re walking around.

1033
00:35:40.090 –> 00:35:42.790
Like on the fridge, there’s mom’s pot roast recipe

1034
00:35:42.790 –> 00:35:43.450
or something. Yeah, pot roast.

1035
00:35:43.470 –> 00:35:44.110
I took a picture.

1036
00:35:44.230 –> 00:35:44.950
I’m gonna make it.

1037
00:35:44.950 –> 00:35:46.230
Yeah, it looks pretty ridiculous,

1038
00:35:46.250 –> 00:35:47.530
but I feel like we need to make it.

1039
00:35:47.750 –> 00:35:48.910
There’s to-do lists.

1040
00:35:49.810 –> 00:35:51.410
There’s a picture of the farm,

1041
00:35:52.490 –> 00:35:54.910
which Karen Craig said they believe

1042
00:35:54.910 –> 00:35:56.030
is the actual farm.

1043
00:35:56.090 –> 00:35:58.830
Owners took the photo and they put it here.

1044
00:35:59.270 –> 00:36:02.210
It’s just the details that you don’t take in

1045
00:36:02.210 –> 00:36:02.770
in the moment.

1046
00:36:03.030 –> 00:36:05.050
Being able to have some time to walk around.

1047
00:36:05.830 –> 00:36:08.110
It’s, yeah, now I’m wearing a version of the barn clothes.

1048
00:36:08.110 –> 00:36:10.010
Some of the stuff that’s just kind of laying there.

1049
00:36:10.230 –> 00:36:14.090
Like the cross that Glenn used for the Easter episode.

1050
00:36:14.710 –> 00:36:18.730
The Pitter-Patter, no, sorry, the St. Patrick’s Day.

1051
00:36:19.010 –> 00:36:20.890
What was the Squirrely Dan?

1052
00:36:21.150 –> 00:36:22.070
The-

1053
00:36:22.070 –> 00:36:22.690
Oh, man.

1054
00:36:22.890 –> 00:36:23.570
I’m blanking on that.

1055
00:36:23.710 –> 00:36:24.450
But yeah, like the-

1056
00:36:24.450 –> 00:36:25.230
I can’t help you.

1057
00:36:25.470 –> 00:36:26.630
Big standup thing is there.

1058
00:36:26.630 –> 00:36:28.370
Yeah, of Squirrely Dan, like the St. Patrick’s Day.

1059
00:36:28.370 –> 00:36:32.050
The set, so all of you who saw the tour,

1060
00:36:32.990 –> 00:36:36.470
the produce stand set that they used is often the corner

1061
00:36:36.470 –> 00:36:38.610
right behind one of the sets from where I’m sitting.

1062
00:36:39.130 –> 00:36:41.090
I mean, yeah, all these sets are set up

1063
00:36:41.090 –> 00:36:42.970
in this hockey arena, but as you walk around the edge,

1064
00:36:43.010 –> 00:36:46.310
there’s like little glimpses of all the amazing moments

1065
00:36:46.310 –> 00:36:47.970
that we’ve taken in through the season.

1066
00:36:47.970 –> 00:36:52.010
And it’s just very cool to absorb all that.

1067
00:36:52.290 –> 00:36:54.590
So this, to me, I mean, is a highlight.

1068
00:36:54.690 –> 00:36:56.790
I’m super nerding out in this space.

1069
00:36:56.790 –> 00:36:58.270
I’m wearing his fucking barn clothes.

1070
00:36:58.610 –> 00:37:00.770
And not even the real ones, but it’s just,

1071
00:37:00.770 –> 00:37:03.010
I had to get into the moment and I’m so happy

1072
00:37:03.010 –> 00:37:04.410
and so thankful they let us do this.

1073
00:37:04.450 –> 00:37:07.670
I’ll be stitching together a video of the whole weekend.

1074
00:37:07.770 –> 00:37:10.010
So I’ll have it all in one place

1075
00:37:10.010 –> 00:37:11.630
and put it up on our YouTube channel.

1076
00:37:11.670 –> 00:37:13.410
It might take a while, so please, folks,

1077
00:37:13.450 –> 00:37:14.650
I’ve been really busy with work.

1078
00:37:15.110 –> 00:37:16.930
Please be very patient, but as soon as I can,

1079
00:37:16.930 –> 00:37:17.870
I will post a video,

1080
00:37:17.910 –> 00:37:19.110
because there’s a lot of great stuff.

1081
00:37:19.270 –> 00:37:20.550
And Al and Al, what’s been your highlight?

1082
00:37:20.550 –> 00:37:21.330
Yeah, I was gonna ask.

1083
00:37:21.410 –> 00:37:21.990
You did us.

1084
00:37:23.350 –> 00:37:25.170
I mean, it’s funny.

1085
00:37:25.170 –> 00:37:28.630
The van, just being in the van with you guys.

1086
00:37:29.230 –> 00:37:31.470
Again, and I mean, it’s not joking.

1087
00:37:31.630 –> 00:37:32.850
I wish I’d set up a mic.

1088
00:37:32.950 –> 00:37:34.570
I wish I had the forethought to set up a mic,

1089
00:37:34.610 –> 00:37:36.610
because that would have been a whole episode on its own

1090
00:37:36.610 –> 00:37:39.030
and probably the funniest shit we’ve ever recorded.

1091
00:37:39.750 –> 00:37:42.710
Between you and Victor at each other and Tanya,

1092
00:37:42.890 –> 00:37:44.890
it just, yeah, it was just so much fun.

1093
00:37:45.130 –> 00:37:48.070
But today, like driving up to the farm

1094
00:37:48.070 –> 00:37:49.610
was kind of surreal.

1095
00:37:49.770 –> 00:37:50.310
It was surreal.

1096
00:37:50.410 –> 00:37:51.890
And it’s such a beautiful day.

1097
00:37:52.190 –> 00:37:54.370
Like the sun is out, it’s clear skies,

1098
00:37:54.370 –> 00:37:56.130
it’s nice, brisk feeling.

1099
00:37:56.610 –> 00:37:59.570
It was the perfect setting to walk onto that property

1100
00:37:59.570 –> 00:38:00.450
and take it in.

1101
00:38:00.770 –> 00:38:03.710
Oh, and we even took a photo at the back of the house

1102
00:38:03.710 –> 00:38:05.690
and where you can’t, and Linda’s like,

1103
00:38:05.690 –> 00:38:07.210
I can’t see your face, and we’re like,

1104
00:38:07.330 –> 00:38:08.290
no, we know, you know.

1105
00:38:08.290 –> 00:38:09.530
That’s the point, that’s the point.

1106
00:38:10.030 –> 00:38:12.410
We had to sort of, we had to MacGyver it,

1107
00:38:12.430 –> 00:38:13.990
so we squatted down so we didn’t have chairs.

1108
00:38:13.990 –> 00:38:14.250
Yeah, we didn’t have chairs.

1109
00:38:14.490 –> 00:38:15.170
Yeah, we didn’t think ahead.

1110
00:38:15.690 –> 00:38:16.950
Well, we thought ahead,

1111
00:38:16.970 –> 00:38:18.190
but then we forgot to bring the chairs.

1112
00:38:18.210 –> 00:38:18.990
Some of us thought ahead.

1113
00:38:19.170 –> 00:38:19.570
Yes.

1114
00:38:21.130 –> 00:38:23.770
But there is a picture with one of the authentic chairs.

1115
00:38:23.770 –> 00:38:24.770
Yes, that’s right.

1116
00:38:25.050 –> 00:38:25.090
It’s true.

1117
00:38:25.650 –> 00:38:27.730
And of course, Victor was the one who got to sit in it.

1118
00:38:28.470 –> 00:38:31.510
So that was probably Squirrely Dan’s chair.

1119
00:38:31.530 –> 00:38:32.930
He bowed to the mic apparently.

1120
00:38:33.390 –> 00:38:35.450
It was his reaction to that comment.

1121
00:38:37.930 –> 00:38:40.150
I mean, yeah, yesterday’s highlights,

1122
00:38:40.350 –> 00:38:42.250
I think were just, you know, meeting Michelle,

1123
00:38:42.470 –> 00:38:44.550
meeting Jay, just everything around,

1124
00:38:45.170 –> 00:38:47.010
like going to the locations were fun

1125
00:38:47.010 –> 00:38:49.030
and just kind of, you know, driving around Sudbury.

1126
00:38:49.250 –> 00:38:51.650
It’s a very interesting city, to say the least.

1127
00:38:51.650 –> 00:38:53.930
There’s a lot of really great stuff to see.

1128
00:38:54.070 –> 00:38:54.890
A lot of character.

1129
00:38:55.030 –> 00:38:56.590
And a lot of character in this city.

1130
00:38:57.470 –> 00:38:58.090
I feel like that.

1131
00:38:58.130 –> 00:38:59.810
I mean, now with my other podcasts,

1132
00:38:59.870 –> 00:39:03.350
I visit a lot of other Canadian towns and stuff.

1133
00:39:03.730 –> 00:39:04.930
It’s the same everywhere, right?

1134
00:39:05.010 –> 00:39:08.150
So there’s gonna be a little bit of poverty,

1135
00:39:08.270 –> 00:39:09.450
a little bit of this, a little bit of that,

1136
00:39:09.510 –> 00:39:11.530
but then there’s also the really vibrant parts

1137
00:39:11.530 –> 00:39:11.950
of the city.

1138
00:39:12.130 –> 00:39:13.270
Yeah, there’s real pockets in this town.

1139
00:39:13.290 –> 00:39:14.810
Well, actually, when you guys came up,

1140
00:39:14.870 –> 00:39:15.730
there was a hockey game.

1141
00:39:16.010 –> 00:39:17.210
You couldn’t find anyone.

1142
00:39:17.490 –> 00:39:19.350
Yeah, so streets were empty,

1143
00:39:19.350 –> 00:39:23.470
and then we just came upon the community,

1144
00:39:23.670 –> 00:39:24.450
what is it called?

1145
00:39:24.550 –> 00:39:25.350
The community arena.

1146
00:39:26.470 –> 00:39:27.170
The Sudbury Wolves Arena.

1147
00:39:27.630 –> 00:39:28.790
And everybody was there.

1148
00:39:29.090 –> 00:39:29.990
Like everybody.

1149
00:39:30.310 –> 00:39:31.730
And it was, the kids were,

1150
00:39:32.350 –> 00:39:33.610
and they were having, I think,

1151
00:39:34.550 –> 00:39:35.910
because of the reconciliation.

1152
00:39:37.430 –> 00:39:38.290
Yeah, that was on the Friday.

1153
00:39:38.630 –> 00:39:40.810
No child left behind as well.

1154
00:39:41.610 –> 00:39:43.390
And I think, that’s the slogan.

1155
00:39:43.410 –> 00:39:43.870
Every child matters.

1156
00:39:43.890 –> 00:39:45.450
Every child matters, that’s what it was.

1157
00:39:47.690 –> 00:39:49.030
Yeah, they’re all good.

1158
00:39:49.030 –> 00:39:49.870
They’re all good slogans.

1159
00:39:50.570 –> 00:39:52.830
Anyway, so it was like a big,

1160
00:39:53.090 –> 00:39:54.830
so half the people were wearing these orange shirts,

1161
00:39:55.030 –> 00:39:57.870
and the other half were wearing Sudbury Wolves shirts,

1162
00:39:57.950 –> 00:39:59.890
and it just looked like a great time.

1163
00:40:00.110 –> 00:40:02.150
And there was a wolf head.

1164
00:40:02.330 –> 00:40:03.170
And a giant inflatable wolf

1165
00:40:03.170 –> 00:40:05.750
that was great fun for the kids to walk through,

1166
00:40:06.030 –> 00:40:07.210
so, and some adults.

1167
00:40:08.550 –> 00:40:12.730
And yeah, and a nice statue of Stomp and Tom as well.

1168
00:40:12.870 –> 00:40:14.570
Yeah, we took a picture with Stomp and Tom Connors.

1169
00:40:14.870 –> 00:40:16.490
The reason, to our American friends,

1170
00:40:16.530 –> 00:40:18.930
why that’s important is he wrote the song

1171
00:40:18.930 –> 00:40:20.230
on a Sudbury Saturday night.

1172
00:40:20.550 –> 00:40:23.230
So if you want to check that out, it’s country music.

1173
00:40:23.270 –> 00:40:24.330
So if you like that kind of stuff,

1174
00:40:24.430 –> 00:40:25.630
you might enjoy Stomp and Tom.

1175
00:40:25.930 –> 00:40:27.330
It’s not country music.

1176
00:40:27.430 –> 00:40:28.130
It’s something else.

1177
00:40:28.350 –> 00:40:29.290
It’s like a separate cast.

1178
00:40:29.310 –> 00:40:30.690
It’s folk, it’s country folk.

1179
00:40:30.970 –> 00:40:31.650
Parody folk almost.

1180
00:40:31.670 –> 00:40:34.170
And he’s a legend in Canada.

1181
00:40:34.370 –> 00:40:35.530
So everyone knows Stomp and Tom.

1182
00:40:35.630 –> 00:40:37.270
He’s written so many songs.

1183
00:40:37.290 –> 00:40:37.990
Good old hockey game.

1184
00:40:38.050 –> 00:40:39.130
Yeah, yeah, lots of songs.

1185
00:40:39.190 –> 00:40:40.510
And it’s all about Canadiana.

1186
00:40:41.130 –> 00:40:42.910
So Stomp and Tom is definitely a legend.

1187
00:40:43.110 –> 00:40:45.590
And he actually stands on a wooden plank

1188
00:40:45.590 –> 00:40:46.630
and he stomps on a plank.

1189
00:40:46.630 –> 00:40:48.710
Yeah, that’s why they call him Stomp and Tom.

1190
00:40:48.710 –> 00:40:50.170
I did not know.

1191
00:40:50.450 –> 00:40:51.150
There you go.

1192
00:40:51.250 –> 00:40:51.710
Now you know.

1193
00:40:51.850 –> 00:40:52.890
Now he’s stomping, Tom.

1194
00:40:53.410 –> 00:40:55.870
Before he was just Tom, but now he’s stomping.

1195
00:40:56.010 –> 00:40:58.230
Just go watch any YouTube video of him

1196
00:40:58.230 –> 00:40:59.070
and you’ll see.

1197
00:40:59.210 –> 00:41:01.050
I probably would have noticed that in last,

1198
00:41:01.150 –> 00:41:02.130
I would have seen him stomping,

1199
00:41:02.150 –> 00:41:02.730
but I wouldn’t have realized

1200
00:41:02.730 –> 00:41:05.210
that he was standing on something to amplify it.

1201
00:41:05.450 –> 00:41:07.310
Yeah, but so Sudbury is a great town,

1202
00:41:07.510 –> 00:41:09.550
like very charming, built on mining.

1203
00:41:10.110 –> 00:41:11.650
So nickel and ore, I think, and copper.

1204
00:41:11.650 –> 00:41:14.270
Yeah, we saw the mining monument at Bell Park.

1205
00:41:14.330 –> 00:41:16.010
That was one of the reasons we went to Bell Park,

1206
00:41:16.010 –> 00:41:18.470
which ended up, we’ve deemed the portal.

1207
00:41:19.250 –> 00:41:22.150
So yeah, if you ever come to Sudbury, go to Bell Park,

1208
00:41:22.290 –> 00:41:23.210
and there’s, what’s the,

1209
00:41:23.210 –> 00:41:24.210
do you know what the statue’s called?

1210
00:41:24.330 –> 00:41:24.890
There’s a statue.

1211
00:41:24.910 –> 00:41:25.910
It’s called Mining Monument.

1212
00:41:26.270 –> 00:41:26.830
Yeah, oh yeah?

1213
00:41:26.910 –> 00:41:27.090
Yeah.

1214
00:41:27.350 –> 00:41:29.810
And it’s a really cool looking statue

1215
00:41:30.290 –> 00:41:32.110
of like two hands digging into the earth,

1216
00:41:32.130 –> 00:41:33.810
but then on both sides of it,

1217
00:41:33.910 –> 00:41:37.150
it tells a story of when the beginnings of mining

1218
00:41:37.150 –> 00:41:39.350
to like where it’s all like out in the country

1219
00:41:39.350 –> 00:41:40.850
and then at the end of the big city

1220
00:41:40.850 –> 00:41:42.330
that’s been built on mining and stuff.

1221
00:41:42.350 –> 00:41:44.090
And it’s really, really well done.

1222
00:41:44.670 –> 00:41:45.290
Yeah, we took some pictures.

1223
00:41:45.610 –> 00:41:46.650
Yeah, the detail on it was unreal.

1224
00:41:46.650 –> 00:41:48.090
And it’s funny, because it took us a moment,

1225
00:41:48.090 –> 00:41:49.370
because it is like a circle,

1226
00:41:49.890 –> 00:41:51.430
and it wasn’t until like after sitting there

1227
00:41:51.430 –> 00:41:52.030
looking for a few minutes,

1228
00:41:52.050 –> 00:41:53.290
we realized, oh, it’s completely different

1229
00:41:53.290 –> 00:41:53.990
on the other side.

1230
00:41:54.270 –> 00:41:56.470
And like you said, it’s like one side is the past,

1231
00:41:56.630 –> 00:41:59.050
one side is the present, and the evolution,

1232
00:41:59.290 –> 00:42:00.890
it’s just unreal, very well done.

1233
00:42:00.930 –> 00:42:02.630
And it’s not a memorial, it’s a monument.

1234
00:42:02.930 –> 00:42:04.950
It’s celebrating the mining history of the town.

1235
00:42:05.330 –> 00:42:06.530
Then you have Science North,

1236
00:42:06.570 –> 00:42:08.950
which I think is like a science center kind of thing.

1237
00:42:09.130 –> 00:42:11.170
But then the other place we went to with the pumpkins,

1238
00:42:11.230 –> 00:42:11.710
what was that one?

1239
00:42:12.050 –> 00:42:12.870
That was the Big Nickel.

1240
00:42:12.970 –> 00:42:14.490
The Big Nickel, but I forget what the name

1241
00:42:14.490 –> 00:42:15.590
of the place is. Earthly something.

1242
00:42:15.590 –> 00:42:18.350
Yeah, that’s the mining museum.

1243
00:42:18.670 –> 00:42:20.050
So that was pretty cool, too.

1244
00:42:20.050 –> 00:42:21.570
Apparently you can go down into the mine.

1245
00:42:21.950 –> 00:42:23.310
It was closed when we went there, but.

1246
00:42:23.590 –> 00:42:25.530
Yeah, apparently you can only go into mine at night,

1247
00:42:25.810 –> 00:42:27.210
which I found peculiar.

1248
00:42:27.550 –> 00:42:28.530
Yeah, that is interesting.

1249
00:42:28.790 –> 00:42:29.950
Wouldn’t it always be night?

1250
00:42:30.070 –> 00:42:30.750
You’re underground.

1251
00:42:31.670 –> 00:42:33.910
Like, there’s no sun down there, it’s relevant.

1252
00:42:34.330 –> 00:42:34.710
It’s a good point.

1253
00:42:35.050 –> 00:42:35.810
It feels that way.

1254
00:42:36.150 –> 00:42:37.410
Oh, and then there was the pumpkins

1255
00:42:37.410 –> 00:42:40.690
that were all getting ready for Halloween season.

1256
00:42:40.930 –> 00:42:43.810
And there was a real pumpkin, at least we think.

1257
00:42:44.350 –> 00:42:45.590
Yet to be determined.

1258
00:42:47.370 –> 00:42:48.990
Yeah, I mean, it was a great time.

1259
00:42:49.470 –> 00:42:50.170
Like a lot of fun,

1260
00:42:50.210 –> 00:42:52.770
and it’s coming to an end, a little sad, but.

1261
00:42:53.550 –> 00:42:55.950
We got the big drive home ahead of us.

1262
00:42:56.010 –> 00:42:56.750
Yeah, three hour drive.

1263
00:42:56.750 –> 00:42:57.650
We all came up separately.

1264
00:42:58.090 –> 00:43:00.650
Oh, so we’ll talk about the drive for a second,

1265
00:43:00.690 –> 00:43:02.370
because yeah, so Victor and Linda,

1266
00:43:02.370 –> 00:43:04.630
you guys came up like Friday afternoon.

1267
00:43:04.910 –> 00:43:06.710
Like I got a text from you saying,

1268
00:43:06.770 –> 00:43:08.050
oh, we’ve checked into the hotel.

1269
00:43:08.210 –> 00:43:09.250
I’m still at home working.

1270
00:43:09.450 –> 00:43:10.610
I’m like, oh, that’s nice.

1271
00:43:11.190 –> 00:43:12.730
Tanya and I still have to drop the kids off.

1272
00:43:12.730 –> 00:43:14.610
And that was like a long process.

1273
00:43:15.010 –> 00:43:16.170
And so by the time we got on the road,

1274
00:43:16.250 –> 00:43:17.150
and by the time we got up here,

1275
00:43:17.170 –> 00:43:18.370
it was like 10 o’clock at night.

1276
00:43:18.430 –> 00:43:19.810
You guys are brave to make that drive at night.

1277
00:43:19.990 –> 00:43:22.170
Well, yeah, so highway 69 is a little,

1278
00:43:22.370 –> 00:43:24.410
yeah, there’s no lights, no lights at all.

1279
00:43:24.590 –> 00:43:25.050
It’s a two lane highway.

1280
00:43:25.050 –> 00:43:27.370
Yeah, anyone coming up this way, beware.

1281
00:43:27.430 –> 00:43:29.890
Like that is, and it’s a one-on-one lane.

1282
00:43:29.910 –> 00:43:32.690
So like you’ve got head-ons and it’s just like,

1283
00:43:32.690 –> 00:43:33.030
oh, shit.

1284
00:43:34.030 –> 00:43:35.950
And deer and moose, and we didn’t see,

1285
00:43:36.010 –> 00:43:36.730
luckily we didn’t see.

1286
00:43:36.730 –> 00:43:37.170
And chipmunks.

1287
00:43:37.370 –> 00:43:39.350
We saw an accident, unfortunately.

1288
00:43:39.550 –> 00:43:41.950
It was a pretty serious looking accident.

1289
00:43:41.950 –> 00:43:44.190
So we were delayed a bit coming up here.

1290
00:43:44.510 –> 00:43:45.790
But thankfully no moose.

1291
00:43:46.050 –> 00:43:47.530
But then the next day, Matt.

1292
00:43:47.770 –> 00:43:50.170
Yes, yes, I left because I couldn’t come up on Friday.

1293
00:43:50.230 –> 00:43:54.230
So I got up 5 a.m. Saturday morning and hit the road.

1294
00:43:54.430 –> 00:43:56.110
And so three and a half, three hours

1295
00:43:56.110 –> 00:43:58.750
and 45 minute drive or so, and I hit the road.

1296
00:43:59.030 –> 00:44:00.610
And I did see a moose.

1297
00:44:00.930 –> 00:44:03.630
So about 45 minutes north of Perry Sound

1298
00:44:03.630 –> 00:44:04.870
when you’re on highway 69.

1299
00:44:04.970 –> 00:44:07.230
And I knew that this was like a reality of the north.

1300
00:44:07.410 –> 00:44:08.650
You have to be observant.

1301
00:44:08.650 –> 00:44:10.130
I’m glad the light was out.

1302
00:44:10.170 –> 00:44:11.430
And I had lots of lead time.

1303
00:44:11.430 –> 00:44:13.030
It was pretty spectacular actually.

1304
00:44:13.070 –> 00:44:15.290
So I could see up in the distance, something moving.

1305
00:44:15.570 –> 00:44:16.910
I started to slow down.

1306
00:44:17.070 –> 00:44:19.810
And sure enough, this big magnificent bull moose

1307
00:44:19.810 –> 00:44:21.810
steps out onto the road right in front of me.

1308
00:44:21.850 –> 00:44:22.830
Did he have the big antlers?

1309
00:44:22.830 –> 00:44:23.890
Oh yeah, he had the bull of the males.

1310
00:44:24.090 –> 00:44:25.150
Like it was huge.

1311
00:44:25.430 –> 00:44:26.370
You know, I could take a picture.

1312
00:44:26.530 –> 00:44:27.990
And he just trotted over.

1313
00:44:28.230 –> 00:44:29.990
By the time I was slowing down,

1314
00:44:30.130 –> 00:44:32.070
I was probably 20, 30 feet from him.

1315
00:44:32.070 –> 00:44:32.870
And he went by.

1316
00:44:32.930 –> 00:44:33.690
It was amazing.

1317
00:44:33.850 –> 00:44:36.390
I’m like, it brought new life into me at that moment

1318
00:44:36.390 –> 00:44:37.010
in the morning.

1319
00:44:37.190 –> 00:44:39.230
It was so apropos that you’re the one

1320
00:44:39.230 –> 00:44:40.530
who saw the moose considering.

1321
00:44:40.530 –> 00:44:41.890
You have a dog named Moose.

1322
00:44:43.470 –> 00:44:45.010
Yes, yes, I saw the real deal.

1323
00:44:45.070 –> 00:44:45.530
So it was cool.

1324
00:44:45.650 –> 00:44:47.430
It’s a reality check that, you know,

1325
00:44:47.430 –> 00:44:48.110
this is where we are.

1326
00:44:48.310 –> 00:44:52.050
This is very much nature at its finest up here.

1327
00:44:52.270 –> 00:44:54.130
And there’s towns that live amongst them.

1328
00:44:54.470 –> 00:44:55.210
And it’s beautiful.

1329
00:44:57.170 –> 00:44:58.470
Well, I mean, before we wrap it up,

1330
00:44:58.590 –> 00:44:59.290
is there anything,

1331
00:44:59.310 –> 00:45:00.690
I don’t wanna leave anything on the table.

1332
00:45:00.810 –> 00:45:01.550
Although, you know,

1333
00:45:01.830 –> 00:45:03.390
we have lots of time to talk about it.

1334
00:45:03.390 –> 00:45:04.810
But if there isn’t anything,

1335
00:45:04.950 –> 00:45:06.570
we’ll start with final comments

1336
00:45:06.570 –> 00:45:08.930
and we’ll start with Victor here on my right.

1337
00:45:09.650 –> 00:45:11.070
Yeah, this, again,

1338
00:45:11.370 –> 00:45:13.210
like what I said before, surreal.

1339
00:45:13.450 –> 00:45:17.070
And I’m now kind of pumped to go

1340
00:45:17.070 –> 00:45:20.430
and start re-watching a lot of the,

1341
00:45:20.570 –> 00:45:24.290
both Letter Kenny and Shorzy episodes that,

1342
00:45:24.330 –> 00:45:27.090
again, I’m gonna enjoy in a completely different way.

1343
00:45:28.610 –> 00:45:30.230
And Linda’s gonna watch Shorzy with me.

1344
00:45:30.270 –> 00:45:31.310
So I’m looking forward to that.

1345
00:45:31.310 –> 00:45:32.510
We’re so jealous of you, Linda,

1346
00:45:32.570 –> 00:45:33.930
that you haven’t seen Shorzy yet

1347
00:45:33.930 –> 00:45:35.550
because you’ve got so much to experience.

1348
00:45:35.610 –> 00:45:37.550
Well, I’m looking forward to it too.

1349
00:45:37.550 –> 00:45:39.170
And now I’m gonna have a new perspective,

1350
00:45:39.250 –> 00:45:40.130
like Victor said.

1351
00:45:40.610 –> 00:45:43.030
And just try to be more aware of the scenery

1352
00:45:43.030 –> 00:45:45.850
and each set and everything that went into it

1353
00:45:45.850 –> 00:45:47.770
now that I’ve experienced all of this.

1354
00:45:48.330 –> 00:45:50.910
And so, you know, that’s the show part of it.

1355
00:45:50.930 –> 00:45:51.950
But for me, again,

1356
00:45:52.290 –> 00:45:53.390
hanging out with you guys,

1357
00:45:53.750 –> 00:45:55.770
tiny all the work you put into it.

1358
00:45:56.350 –> 00:45:58.110
Just, you know, just incredible.

1359
00:45:59.610 –> 00:46:02.230
And, you know, just, you guys are awesome.

1360
00:46:03.170 –> 00:46:04.010
And it, you know,

1361
00:46:04.070 –> 00:46:06.590
we’re just gonna continue to do this, I guess.

1362
00:46:07.290 –> 00:46:08.250
Until we’re not.

1363
00:46:08.650 –> 00:46:10.370
And I’m not even thinking about that, so.

1364
00:46:10.870 –> 00:46:11.650
Linda, what do you have?

1365
00:46:12.150 –> 00:46:14.130
You know, I just wanted to thank everybody again

1366
00:46:14.130 –> 00:46:17.350
for inviting me along and letting me tag along.

1367
00:46:17.790 –> 00:46:18.910
And to Tanya for all of the-

1368
00:46:18.910 –> 00:46:19.610
You didn’t tag along.

1369
00:46:19.650 –> 00:46:20.790
You played an important role here.

1370
00:46:20.790 –> 00:46:22.570
You helped us document the whole trip.

1371
00:46:22.810 –> 00:46:24.350
And you were part of the podcast this weekend.

1372
00:46:24.710 –> 00:46:25.270
Nice, nice.

1373
00:46:25.390 –> 00:46:26.750
And it was a great experience.

1374
00:46:26.770 –> 00:46:28.310
So I just wanted to thank you guys again.

1375
00:46:30.310 –> 00:46:32.350
Yeah, it’s just been phenomenal.

1376
00:46:33.810 –> 00:46:34.950
And, oh my God.

1377
00:46:34.950 –> 00:46:37.070
It just, it changes it.

1378
00:46:37.070 –> 00:46:38.230
It changes a lot.

1379
00:46:38.490 –> 00:46:39.750
Like, and as you guys are saying,

1380
00:46:39.870 –> 00:46:41.430
I really want to watch it again.

1381
00:46:41.670 –> 00:46:47.370
It’s like, it just makes it so much bigger

1382
00:46:47.370 –> 00:46:49.410
than what it was before the first round.

1383
00:46:49.550 –> 00:46:51.150
Before the first round, come on.

1384
00:46:51.330 –> 00:46:53.370
The first round, I was being forced into it.

1385
00:46:53.490 –> 00:46:55.710
Like- Yeah, you hated what you were watching, yeah.

1386
00:46:55.710 –> 00:46:56.530
No, I was not-

1387
00:46:56.530 –> 00:46:58.090
No winks in season one.

1388
00:46:58.910 –> 00:47:01.590
And, you know, listening back to that first comment of,

1389
00:47:01.850 –> 00:47:03.250
yeah, we’re not going there.

1390
00:47:03.250 –> 00:47:05.790
And to me now saying, yeah, let’s go.

1391
00:47:05.910 –> 00:47:06.350
Let’s go.

1392
00:47:06.430 –> 00:47:06.570
Get in the car.

1393
00:47:06.570 –> 00:47:08.410
Not only go, I’ve got the itinerary.

1394
00:47:08.530 –> 00:47:09.330
It’s in a duo time.

1395
00:47:09.430 –> 00:47:10.030
Let’s go.

1396
00:47:12.050 –> 00:47:13.770
Yeah, it’s just, there’s no words.

1397
00:47:13.910 –> 00:47:15.250
I want to thank the patrons.

1398
00:47:15.870 –> 00:47:20.590
You know, this was a lot to do with them.

1399
00:47:20.790 –> 00:47:24.950
And we thank you guys for helping us get here.

1400
00:47:25.250 –> 00:47:28.510
And we hope that you’ve enjoyed the experience

1401
00:47:28.510 –> 00:47:34.230
through us of visiting here and seeing what we’ve seen

1402
00:47:34.230 –> 00:47:39.930
and listening to our adventures and experiences.

1403
00:47:40.290 –> 00:47:42.710
And thank you so much to them, for sure.

1404
00:47:43.050 –> 00:47:43.450
Absolutely.

1405
00:47:43.690 –> 00:47:43.870
Matt?

1406
00:47:44.450 –> 00:47:45.970
Yeah, I don’t know where to begin.

1407
00:47:46.190 –> 00:47:48.550
Like it’s, it almost feels like, I don’t know.

1408
00:47:48.670 –> 00:47:49.870
This is like the culmination

1409
00:47:49.870 –> 00:47:51.630
of everything we’ve done listening back.

1410
00:47:51.670 –> 00:47:52.530
It’s wild.

1411
00:47:52.930 –> 00:47:55.570
I still laugh when we talked about this originally

1412
00:47:55.570 –> 00:47:56.410
and now we’re fucking here.

1413
00:47:56.690 –> 00:47:58.170
And sadly, I almost didn’t even make it.

1414
00:47:58.170 –> 00:48:00.070
I mean, I had to do some scheduling changes.

1415
00:48:00.410 –> 00:48:02.030
I had to get some permission from the home

1416
00:48:02.030 –> 00:48:04.910
because my wife is at home with all three kids all weekend.

1417
00:48:04.930 –> 00:48:06.350
So she let me come.

1418
00:48:06.570 –> 00:48:07.110
Thank you, Jen.

1419
00:48:07.730 –> 00:48:08.630
Thank you, Jen.

1420
00:48:08.630 –> 00:48:09.310
Thank you, Jen.

1421
00:48:10.390 –> 00:48:11.170
Yeah, it’s just.

1422
00:48:11.270 –> 00:48:13.590
We’re sending Matt home a bottle of red wine

1423
00:48:13.590 –> 00:48:15.390
for you to thank you.

1424
00:48:15.410 –> 00:48:17.230
For allowing me to leave her alone.

1425
00:48:17.330 –> 00:48:18.830
I’ve gotten a few messages over the weekend.

1426
00:48:19.470 –> 00:48:21.970
I’ve been trying not to ignore them, but they’re.

1427
00:48:22.810 –> 00:48:24.290
But no, this is just, it’s surreal.

1428
00:48:25.090 –> 00:48:27.290
And I just, the fact that we’ve come this far,

1429
00:48:27.290 –> 00:48:29.550
I’m very thankful for all of you.

1430
00:48:29.550 –> 00:48:31.710
I’m thankful for our Patreons, our listeners.

1431
00:48:32.090 –> 00:48:33.610
The evolution of this show

1432
00:48:33.610 –> 00:48:35.670
has been completely out of this world.

1433
00:48:36.230 –> 00:48:38.070
And the fact that we’re fucking sitting here.

1434
00:48:38.310 –> 00:48:39.710
Like I’m looking up and I’m seeing on top

1435
00:48:39.710 –> 00:48:42.510
of a hockey arena and looking out at a window

1436
00:48:42.510 –> 00:48:43.710
and I’m seeing other set, like,

1437
00:48:43.990 –> 00:48:45.690
this is the coolest fucking day

1438
00:48:45.690 –> 00:48:48.310
in the longest time I can remember.

1439
00:48:48.530 –> 00:48:50.450
And I’m so thankful for the Letter Kenny crew

1440
00:48:50.450 –> 00:48:54.010
and Jared and Kara and Craig today for showing us

1441
00:48:54.010 –> 00:48:56.910
around and everyone who’s been so gracious

1442
00:48:56.910 –> 00:48:59.510
and giving with their time over the last couple of years

1443
00:48:59.510 –> 00:49:00.130
through the interviews.

1444
00:49:00.530 –> 00:49:03.310
It’s just, it’s a community through and through.

1445
00:49:04.730 –> 00:49:06.850
And yeah, they’re just a fantastic world

1446
00:49:06.850 –> 00:49:09.490
around this show and very grateful for all.

1447
00:49:09.990 –> 00:49:10.110
Yeah.

1448
00:49:10.390 –> 00:49:11.490
You know what I really wish?

1449
00:49:11.570 –> 00:49:15.890
I really wish I had brought like a yogurt for Victor.

1450
00:49:16.330 –> 00:49:18.470
Cause just even watching him eat the creme brulee

1451
00:49:18.470 –> 00:49:19.130
last night.

1452
00:49:19.170 –> 00:49:19.790
Oh my God.

1453
00:49:20.030 –> 00:49:21.170
You got so mad at me.

1454
00:49:21.310 –> 00:49:24.890
It was so much fun just to watch your interaction

1455
00:49:24.890 –> 00:49:27.050
together between Victor and Matt.

1456
00:49:27.610 –> 00:49:30.670
But like, you know, just want to just like that feel,

1457
00:49:30.790 –> 00:49:33.250
come on, just pause here for a second.

1458
00:49:33.370 –> 00:49:36.090
Just like picture in the back your mind,

1459
00:49:36.110 –> 00:49:38.450
like all the episodes that we’ve seen

1460
00:49:38.450 –> 00:49:41.810
and like going like going crazy,

1461
00:49:41.970 –> 00:49:44.070
dairy going crazy on the, on the yogurt.

1462
00:49:44.570 –> 00:49:46.690
And that was at this table.

1463
00:49:46.690 –> 00:49:49.730
Them looking out the window for the spelling bee.

1464
00:49:50.050 –> 00:49:52.930
The spelling, like, like Wayne looking out that window.

1465
00:49:53.050 –> 00:49:54.650
It would have been Wayne looking out

1466
00:49:54.650 –> 00:49:56.350
that window, you know,

1467
00:49:56.370 –> 00:50:01.330
and give us the pose and doing the spelling bee

1468
00:50:01.330 –> 00:50:03.430
or like Katie in the back there.

1469
00:50:03.590 –> 00:50:04.330
And these are too bad.

1470
00:50:04.470 –> 00:50:05.950
I can’t, I can’t stand up real fast.

1471
00:50:06.710 –> 00:50:07.270
Like, yeah, yeah.

1472
00:50:07.530 –> 00:50:09.370
Or like go to the phone, right?

1473
00:50:09.390 –> 00:50:10.630
Don’t come up the lane.

1474
00:50:10.930 –> 00:50:12.910
Like the phone’s right there.

1475
00:50:12.910 –> 00:50:13.930
Like right there.

1476
00:50:14.050 –> 00:50:15.270
The bathroom where everyone was having

1477
00:50:15.270 –> 00:50:18.010
the intestinal issues during the Christmas episode

1478
00:50:18.010 –> 00:50:18.630
is right there.

1479
00:50:18.650 –> 00:50:19.510
Although it’s not a bathroom.

1480
00:50:19.610 –> 00:50:20.990
If you walk through it, there’s no toilet.

1481
00:50:20.990 –> 00:50:21.630
Yeah.

1482
00:50:21.630 –> 00:50:24.390
Squirrely Dan going off on like his,

1483
00:50:24.390 –> 00:50:27.770
his rants sitting right there or like Katie

1484
00:50:27.770 –> 00:50:30.050
or Katie coming in half dressed

1485
00:50:30.050 –> 00:50:31.490
and going up the stairs.

1486
00:50:31.950 –> 00:50:33.350
And the whole not my fourth day.

1487
00:50:33.350 –> 00:50:35.430
Yeah, Chapman Kingsley stood right there.

1488
00:50:35.650 –> 00:50:36.450
Right, right behind you there.

1489
00:50:36.710 –> 00:50:37.050
Yeah.

1490
00:50:37.150 –> 00:50:39.730
It’s like, we are there.

1491
00:50:39.730 –> 00:50:40.870
It doesn’t get any more real than this.

1492
00:50:40.910 –> 00:50:43.990
Like I saw the lazy boy or the recliner

1493
00:50:43.990 –> 00:50:45.350
in the, in the other room.

1494
00:50:45.350 –> 00:50:47.070
And I’m like, yeah.

1495
00:50:47.910 –> 00:50:50.670
So, so Wayne sat right there.

1496
00:50:51.110 –> 00:50:53.290
And the whole Christmas where he was giving

1497
00:50:53.290 –> 00:50:54.350
out the presents, right?

1498
00:50:54.350 –> 00:50:56.270
The Christmas tree would have been in the corner there

1499
00:50:56.270 –> 00:50:57.430
and giving out the presents.

1500
00:50:57.570 –> 00:50:59.030
And everybody was, you know,

1501
00:50:59.250 –> 00:51:01.350
off in the, in the carpeted area there.

1502
00:51:01.350 –> 00:51:03.450
And oh my gosh, like we’re here.

1503
00:51:03.610 –> 00:51:05.510
We are at that table.

1504
00:51:06.110 –> 00:51:06.250
Anyway.

1505
00:51:06.390 –> 00:51:06.690
The table?

1506
00:51:06.970 –> 00:51:07.750
Are we at the table?

1507
00:51:08.510 –> 00:51:09.470
I think this is the table.

1508
00:51:09.470 –> 00:51:10.670
Sink it in, sink it in.

1509
00:51:10.750 –> 00:51:13.610
Have the moment where it’s just like, yeah.

1510
00:51:13.890 –> 00:51:14.930
Being in the moment.

1511
00:51:15.350 –> 00:51:16.210
It’s so crazy.

1512
00:51:16.650 –> 00:51:17.250
And it’s amazing.

1513
00:51:17.570 –> 00:51:17.870
Yeah.

1514
00:51:17.950 –> 00:51:20.050
So I echo what everyone says here.

1515
00:51:20.750 –> 00:51:22.270
Especially the part about the patrons

1516
00:51:22.270 –> 00:51:25.030
because this weekend was brought to you by,

1517
00:51:25.230 –> 00:51:27.190
or brought to us by the patrons.

1518
00:51:27.490 –> 00:51:29.990
So you guys know we don’t do this for money

1519
00:51:29.990 –> 00:51:31.550
and we don’t make a whole lot of money doing it.

1520
00:51:31.890 –> 00:51:33.970
And we just barely make enough to pay

1521
00:51:33.970 –> 00:51:35.670
for hosting fees and stuff like that.

1522
00:51:35.670 –> 00:51:38.390
And then we put some away and every once in a while,

1523
00:51:38.610 –> 00:51:40.430
I’ll like we had like last year,

1524
00:51:40.430 –> 00:51:43.310
I think we had that cake dinner and we had fun.

1525
00:51:43.710 –> 00:51:44.950
And this time around, I’m like, well,

1526
00:51:44.950 –> 00:51:46.750
what are we going to do with the patron money?

1527
00:51:46.750 –> 00:51:50.150
And I offered you guys like gift cards or something.

1528
00:51:50.470 –> 00:51:51.190
And I think it was Victor,

1529
00:51:51.250 –> 00:51:53.550
it was you who said, let’s do something,

1530
00:51:54.190 –> 00:51:55.670
an experience that we can all enjoy.

1531
00:51:56.790 –> 00:51:58.870
And it was, you’re right, it was a perfect idea.

1532
00:51:58.890 –> 00:52:00.630
Instead of like using that money to buy stuff

1533
00:52:00.630 –> 00:52:03.410
that we’ll use up and throw away or whatever,

1534
00:52:03.470 –> 00:52:04.610
this is an experience.

1535
00:52:05.450 –> 00:52:07.410
And this is something we’ll never forget.

1536
00:52:08.010 –> 00:52:09.890
And we owe it all to the patrons.

1537
00:52:10.030 –> 00:52:13.490
The patrons helped pay for this for our hotel stay

1538
00:52:13.490 –> 00:52:15.470
and for the nice meal we had yesterday

1539
00:52:15.470 –> 00:52:16.530
with Michelle and stuff.

1540
00:52:16.530 –> 00:52:17.850
This is all patrons,

1541
00:52:17.950 –> 00:52:19.590
some of the new equipment I had to buy.

1542
00:52:20.390 –> 00:52:21.130
Thank you guys.

1543
00:52:22.150 –> 00:52:24.010
And we’re just going to continue doing this

1544
00:52:24.010 –> 00:52:25.250
because we love doing it,

1545
00:52:25.590 –> 00:52:27.450
but hopefully you enjoy watching it.

1546
00:52:27.470 –> 00:52:28.190
To give back.

1547
00:52:28.250 –> 00:52:29.550
And your support is so humbling.

1548
00:52:29.930 –> 00:52:32.330
I will apologize to the patrons on behalf of Matt

1549
00:52:32.330 –> 00:52:34.750
as he was eating his creme brulee like in the end of.

1550
00:52:36.050 –> 00:52:38.970
I feel like, I don’t know, it was accidental,

1551
00:52:39.030 –> 00:52:40.730
but we always, this entire weekend,

1552
00:52:40.770 –> 00:52:42.450
we found ourselves sitting beside each other,

1553
00:52:42.770 –> 00:52:45.150
which just continued to fuel these interactions.

1554
00:52:45.150 –> 00:52:46.650
I love observing.

1555
00:52:47.030 –> 00:52:49.790
And I just like sat back and I watched the two of you.

1556
00:52:49.850 –> 00:52:51.810
I knew Victor was going to have issue

1557
00:52:51.810 –> 00:52:53.470
because you were like creme brulee

1558
00:52:53.470 –> 00:52:54.950
and you’re mixing it up like in soup.

1559
00:52:54.970 –> 00:52:56.910
Yeah, you’re eating it like dairy eating a yogurt.

1560
00:52:57.190 –> 00:52:59.030
Yeah, you were mixing it up.

1561
00:52:59.030 –> 00:53:01.030
And I’m like, oh, Victor’s going to catch on

1562
00:53:01.030 –> 00:53:01.210
to that recipe.

1563
00:53:01.210 –> 00:53:03.450
Victor, he taps the top because it’s crunchy.

1564
00:53:03.850 –> 00:53:05.270
And he does like a little bit at a time.

1565
00:53:05.810 –> 00:53:06.690
Where’s the sugar top?

1566
00:53:06.910 –> 00:53:07.970
He’s like, what did you do?

1567
00:53:08.070 –> 00:53:09.590
And admittingly, not that one,

1568
00:53:09.710 –> 00:53:11.610
but I mean, you called me on this yesterday.

1569
00:53:11.970 –> 00:53:14.070
It’s kind of 50-50, some of it’s accidental

1570
00:53:14.070 –> 00:53:16.430
and what I do, other half is like,

1571
00:53:16.650 –> 00:53:18.110
let’s see if I can get a little rise.

1572
00:53:18.490 –> 00:53:21.090
So I’m stoked in the fire when I see opportunity

1573
00:53:21.090 –> 00:53:22.810
and it’s so worth it.

1574
00:53:22.850 –> 00:53:24.570
Well, no, Victor takes opportunity too.

1575
00:53:24.810 –> 00:53:26.830
Like the whole, having the sip of the champagne

1576
00:53:26.830 –> 00:53:27.830
and then start coughing.

1577
00:53:28.170 –> 00:53:29.450
I’m like, what are you doing?

1578
00:53:30.270 –> 00:53:30.630
That wasn’t planned.

1579
00:53:30.890 –> 00:53:33.850
That was authentic choking on champagne.

1580
00:53:34.430 –> 00:53:35.470
Choking on champagne.

1581
00:53:35.610 –> 00:53:37.510
I totally did not plan that.

1582
00:53:38.350 –> 00:53:39.730
That may or may not be planned,

1583
00:53:39.750 –> 00:53:40.790
but you were right.

1584
00:53:40.890 –> 00:53:43.190
Victor does do things to get her eyes out of people.

1585
00:53:43.190 –> 00:53:45.410
He won’t admit to it, but it’s true.

1586
00:53:45.890 –> 00:53:47.670
We poke at each other and it’s fun.

1587
00:53:47.850 –> 00:53:50.550
And we have a new episode idea came up to us

1588
00:53:50.550 –> 00:53:52.570
while we were watching some interactions

1589
00:53:52.570 –> 00:53:54.030
here between Victor and Linda

1590
00:53:54.710 –> 00:53:57.830
that we have to have games night at some point of,

1591
00:53:58.450 –> 00:53:59.410
what was the games?

1592
00:54:00.110 –> 00:54:01.930
Password or catch fairies or catch race.

1593
00:54:01.970 –> 00:54:02.910
One of those, yeah.

1594
00:54:03.290 –> 00:54:05.430
Yeah, cause it’s just been so comical

1595
00:54:05.430 –> 00:54:07.230
listening to everybody catching

1596
00:54:07.230 –> 00:54:08.670
what the other person’s thinking

1597
00:54:08.670 –> 00:54:10.410
cause they can’t come out with it fast enough

1598
00:54:10.410 –> 00:54:11.810
or can’t remember the details.

1599
00:54:12.390 –> 00:54:12.830
Yeah.

1600
00:54:13.230 –> 00:54:15.610
Lots of laughs, lots of laughs.

1601
00:54:15.970 –> 00:54:16.110
Yeah.

1602
00:54:16.370 –> 00:54:16.910
Great times.

1603
00:54:17.190 –> 00:54:18.090
Unfortunately, we can’t,

1604
00:54:18.110 –> 00:54:19.750
we got to bring this to an end,

1605
00:54:19.790 –> 00:54:21.390
but we’re going to continue

1606
00:54:21.390 –> 00:54:23.110
while we’re going to have to tear it all down

1607
00:54:23.110 –> 00:54:24.670
to like the mess we just made here.

1608
00:54:24.910 –> 00:54:27.030
But thank you all for listening.

Thank you to the patrons for helping us get here.

1610

And I’m going to play us off with a song.

1611
00:54:33.990 –> 00:54:35.270
Unfortunately, it’s just the same song

1612
00:54:35.270 –> 00:54:36.150
we played off last week

1613
00:54:36.150 –> 00:54:38.050
cause I didn’t have time to load a new one.

1614
00:54:38.830 –> 00:54:40.990
So this is Playboys.

1615
00:54:57.280 –> 00:54:58.520
By the Deadly Snakes.

1616
00:55:07.990 –> 00:55:10.150
And that’s all we have for this episode.

1617
00:55:10.230 –> 00:55:12.670
