Ghosts Love Attics! (Ep. 148)

Ghosts Love Attics! (Ep. 148)
1
00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:04,720
I have a ghost story.
You don't have a ski story.

2
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:11,920
No, we didn't go.
It was so cold.

3
00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:19,760
This is due to underwhelming
demand.

4
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:23,560
The podcast.
It is working hard to not be

5
00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:27,600
like this winter, which is just
plain stupid.

6
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:30,080
Yeah, really.
Stupid cold.

7
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:36,160
Well, a stupid windy.
Stupid snowy, stupid long.

8
00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:40,320
I felt like last winter was like
this, but this one seems worse

9
00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:42,160
already.
I think it's that's way worse,

10
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:43,200
yes.
It's way.

11
00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:45,840
So now that you describe it that
way, Dave, I think we do have a

12
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:47,320
lot in common with this window,
so.

13
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:50,240
Good point.
Stupid cold.

14
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:52,600
Stupid Windy.
Yeah, by the way, if you're sick

15
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:55,680
of the cold, listen to this
record heat wave in Australia,

16
00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:58,360
where temperatures, right, it's
summertime there, right?

17
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:05,920
Temperatures are soaring above
484840. 8 that's I don't think

18
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:08,120
I've experienced, 48 I don't.
Think you would?

19
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:09,000
Have.
No.

20
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:11,760
A.
Friend of ours is in Australia

21
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:14,440
right now.
Former Co worker of ours are

22
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:14,960
you?
Sure.

23
00:01:14,960 --> 00:01:17,600
Or have they melted?
Well, I don't know, I might

24
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:19,400
message her and see how she's
doing.

25
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:24,440
OK, well, well, welcome to this
podcast.

26
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:28,040
Later, Rachel has a ghost story.
An actual ghost?

27
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:32,440
Yeah, certified you can.
Tell me your ghost stories.

28
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:34,560
I'm fascinated with them.
I have never had.

29
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:36,040
But nothing too scary 'cause I
don't know.

30
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:38,160
Foreman apparently needs a new
shovel.

31
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:42,760
There's the first world problem
and I am going to begin today

32
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:46,160
because I'm worried that I'm
going to run out of clothes.

33
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:52,280
I.
Which of the three of us has the

34
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:56,960
scariest story?
Well, that's frightening for

35
00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:58,960
everyone.
If I don't have clothes anymore,

36
00:01:58,960 --> 00:01:59,880
well.
Sure is.

37
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:03,280
You want to not be free the.
YouTube views are going to go

38
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:04,920
either way down or way up that
would.

39
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:09,400
Be pretty not It's not pretty at
all because if you go to the

40
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:14,080
mall to shop, where do you go?
Where do you go to get clothes

41
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,440
that would be suitable for you,
Foreman or Rachel?

42
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,320
Where do you go to get close?
Because you're not going to.

43
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:22,600
You're not probably going to
garage.

44
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:27,240
No, see, I used to, but no, not
now you can't.

45
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:28,680
I would go.
I go.

46
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:31,560
I like to go to Reitman's.
I like that story.

47
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:33,280
Are you still around?
Oh yeah.

48
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:36,760
Mall stores are hard because I
used to be.

49
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:40,640
Maybe you could go to like a a
Boathouse or an Urban Planet or

50
00:02:40,640 --> 00:02:42,760
a Blue Note, but I don't think I
can do any of those.

51
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:43,760
I can't.
Do that anymore.

52
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:48,480
H&M maybe, but it all it all
kind of sucks and falls apart.

53
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:50,840
Yeah, I don't really.
Like the men shop?

54
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,640
I don't like each.
Old men shop well.

55
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:55,360
You too, Yeah.
Thank you for putting the old

56
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:57,400
I'll.
Tell you the there's only two

57
00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:59,320
stores that basically are left
for me.

58
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:01,360
I'll, but I'll let Dave proceed
first.

59
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,760
Well.
OK, so the Bay has now

60
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:06,640
shuttered.
Yeah, they're, no, they're no

61
00:03:06,640 --> 00:03:09,040
longer.
Around and it's hilariously at

62
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:12,240
at least one the White Oaks
location turned into a spirit

63
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:14,680
Halloween in the mall.
Yeah, it did.

64
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:16,160
It was so.
Perfect.

65
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:19,000
Of course it did.
Immediately, Oh, Gordon Spirit

66
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,880
Halloween flew in there as fast
as they could.

67
00:03:21,920 --> 00:03:24,360
Yeah.
Well, here in the North End of

68
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,160
the city, we have Masonville,
the mall, Yeah.

69
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:32,680
And lo and behold, the other day
they close their doors.

70
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:38,640
We no longer have the gap.
The gap closed gap.

71
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:44,480
Gone.
Odd.

72
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,480
That is your store.
The Gap was the last.

73
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:51,200
Place I could go.
You would always buy Gap jeans.

74
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,520
I knew that.
Jeans and I'd get a deal on them

75
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:54,160
too.
Yeah.

76
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:56,920
So when the new year arrived, we
were in the mall at one point

77
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:00,440
and all of a sudden there was a
sign that said store closing.

78
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:04,400
And we went and we, I actually
know some of the women there,

79
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:06,960
but you know, but first name,
we're on a first name basis.

80
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:07,760
Oh my.
God.

81
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,280
That's how often we go and then,
you know, I have my

82
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:15,680
granddaughter and we like to
shop at the kids Gap and what

83
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,160
happened?
Oh, some rent issue, something

84
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:20,800
like that.
Something happened anyway.

85
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,440
Oh, they're gone.
They closed on.

86
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:24,320
I don't.
Know.

87
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:25,880
Oh no.
They're gone.

88
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:27,680
What will you do?
I don't know.

89
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,400
Both of your stores.
But turns out then I started

90
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:34,640
wondering maybe it's my fault.
Hmm, how's that?

91
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:37,600
Well, because you did point out
that I like to get my jeans at

92
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,520
the Gap, right, but I never like
to pay full price.

93
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:42,200
No.
No one does.

94
00:04:42,280 --> 00:04:44,600
Well, no, not at the gap.
No one wants to pay if you.

95
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,840
Don't.
Want to pay full price anywhere?

96
00:04:47,840 --> 00:04:49,960
Do you?
There's no reason to ever pay

97
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,360
full price at the Gap, Old Navy,
Banana Ripa.

98
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:55,000
Everything's always on sale
like.

99
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,960
Next week something will go on
sale and then and then what

100
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,640
they'll do is they'll they'll
have a sail rack and then

101
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:04,160
they'll give you an extra 40%
off the sales stuff.

102
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:06,200
Yeah, Yeah.
That's why I don't think that

103
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,840
the regular price is not real.
Like no one in the right mind is

104
00:05:09,840 --> 00:05:12,680
paying the regular place at
those stores because of so many

105
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:14,840
of those sales.
Yes, there's literally nobody

106
00:05:14,840 --> 00:05:17,760
knows to pay.
Selling the quality of single

107
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:20,320
use clothing.
I'm not paying full price.

108
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,840
It will fall apart after I wash
it, it's the same.

109
00:05:22,840 --> 00:05:25,680
As the Bay, when the Bay was
around, they were a little bit

110
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:28,480
more high end, but stuff always
went on sale.

111
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:30,560
Yeah, I could always get a deal
somewhere.

112
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,160
And then I started wondering, is
that my fault?

113
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,120
So I bought a bunch of stuff
online.

114
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,080
Yeah, I didn't even go to the
store.

115
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:39,960
I know.
And then I thought, it's very.

116
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:44,320
Easy to shop online?
Well, my worry now is where will

117
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:45,720
you shop?
I don't know.

118
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,880
Will I run out of clothes?
I am that because I know that

119
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:52,520
those are your two stores and
where will and where do men

120
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:55,160
shop?
Well, first of all, isn't it

121
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,280
only where do I get?
Jeremy's clothes from.

122
00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,440
Well, the gap online is still
around, yeah.

123
00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:02,000
So and it's only that one
location, right?

124
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:04,080
Yes, but that's it.
We don't have one.

125
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:07,480
There used to be one in the
South End I believe at the mall

126
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:09,320
and.
It's long gone.

127
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:13,240
There is a nap outlet.
Factory store on the South end

128
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:15,120
of town.
I don't like, I'm not an outlet

129
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:16,400
guy.
I don't like outlet.

130
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,280
Like cheap gap?
If I wanted that, I'd go to Old

131
00:06:19,280 --> 00:06:22,520
Navy.
OK, I'm not going there.

132
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:24,000
I well.
That may be your only option

133
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:25,920
now, but there's.
One of those in the same Plaza,

134
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:28,000
so.
Yeah, well, there's an Old Navy

135
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,240
up here in this end, but I
haven't set foot in an Old Navy

136
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:32,760
for a long time.
And my reason, Old Navy, is it

137
00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:35,320
always seems like it's a mess.
Sorry.

138
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,280
Yeah.
It always seems cluttered.

139
00:06:37,280 --> 00:06:39,320
It is a mess.
Yeah, and I don't enjoy

140
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:41,200
shopping.
Maybe was like Zeller's was

141
00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:43,880
Zeller's was always a mess.
Also not.

142
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,760
Also not around.
Yeah, also no longer so.

143
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,440
My dad shops at like tip top
tailors.

144
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,200
He'll go.
There not going there what no no

145
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:56,240
one no one shops I'm tip top.
Not all of that, wow, but it's

146
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,160
like sweaters and stuff.
I'm not that's.

147
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:00,640
Still in business?
I don't wear a lot of sweaters

148
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:02,280
but I'm not going to tip top
tailors.

149
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:06,160
I might start doing a lot of my
shopping.

150
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:12,920
Is Costco Costco?
Don't do it.

151
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,880
I got stuff for Jeremy there and
sometimes they have gap closed.

152
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,280
Sometimes.
Sometimes, yeah, sometimes they

153
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:21,080
do.
I'm telling you Dave, once you

154
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:26,200
just accept it and learn it, you
will love it and you'll never

155
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:30,040
even think about anywhere else
is winners and Marshalls.

156
00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:34,840
Honestly, I never really find
anything I'd like there, I don't

157
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:36,680
know why.
Find everything.

158
00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:39,960
Women jump there a lot.
That is his go to there's.

159
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:41,440
Nowhere.
I mean, that's it.

160
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:43,400
Yeah, that's it for you.
That's handy.

161
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,840
You know, like Under Armour,
There's an we have a Under

162
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:48,280
Armour outlet in the South.
I don't do the outlet I'm.

163
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:50,280
Not good, but all that stuff
shows up at winners.

164
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,400
There's Armour.
There's yeah, there's Gap.

165
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,240
There's Calvin Klein.
There's all of an outlet store.

166
00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:57,080
Yeah, I know.
I'm not going.

167
00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,120
There well, Winners is kind of
an outlet store.

168
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:00,600
I mean they get all the sell
offs.

169
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:02,520
They get to sell.
I don't know anyway.

170
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,400
I mean, it's all fine, whatever.
It's all made and.

171
00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:07,400
Then I just found out.
I just found out.

172
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:12,160
That's not bad enough for the
the Masonville Beer Store is

173
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:13,080
closing.
Yeah.

174
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,440
I heard that and I thought of
you immediately.

175
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:20,440
Me too.
Like there's only the meeting.

176
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:21,960
Up there, dude.
I don't know.

177
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:26,320
London only has 6 left.
Is that right after that closes

178
00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:27,560
after that?
Oh, that's.

179
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:30,560
Yeah, To be honest, the only
thing I get at the Beer Store

180
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:34,080
now when I go there is I rid of
my empties.

181
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:36,360
Yes, that's all I can, right.
I don't.

182
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:40,039
Well, now you can buy beer at
the grocery store and blame Doug

183
00:08:40,039 --> 00:08:43,360
Ford for that.
Yeah, I want my $0.10 a can

184
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:46,080
somewhere, yeah.
Where am I going to take my

185
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,200
empties?
Doug, you better figure that

186
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:49,360
out.
Doug's House.

187
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:01,520
This is due to underwhelming
demand.

188
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:07,960
It's the podcast that if it were
a Winter Olympic sport, I

189
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:12,160
believe we probably would be
curling because curling's very

190
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:13,880
Canadian.
Do we have to be curling?

191
00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:17,680
Yeah, well, curling's very
Canadian and there's just enough

192
00:09:17,680 --> 00:09:21,240
going on to maybe keep you from
falling asleep.

193
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:25,480
You'll drift in and out.
Yes.

194
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:30,600
OK, we are definitely not ski
mountaineering the new sport in

195
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:32,160
this year's Woodrow Olympics.
You're.

196
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:37,320
In this, no I haven't.
Mountaineering involves quote

197
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:42,960
climbing mountains, either on
skis or carrying them, and then

198
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,840
descending on skis.
Wow.

199
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:47,640
No, thank you.
Cool.

200
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:50,960
Yeah, that's cool.
Yeah, like the only.

201
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:52,960
Break dancing at the last
Olympics.

202
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:56,040
So, yeah, yeah, well, that
won't, that won't be back.

203
00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:58,480
Yeah, I mean from Australia.
I don't know.

204
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:02,080
Why would anybody ever go?
You know what I want to do.

205
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:03,400
You know what I think I want to
do?

206
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,160
Ski Mountaineering.
Climb the mountain, Yeah, when

207
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:07,120
we ski.
Down it.

208
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:10,560
Where do I learn how to do that?
Well, they're in the when you're

209
00:10:10,560 --> 00:10:13,240
in the Max.
That's probably just what people

210
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:14,680
do in that area.
Like, yeah.

211
00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:18,560
I think I will like to watch it
if they find a way to cover, but

212
00:10:18,560 --> 00:10:19,560
I don't know how they're gonna
do.

213
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:24,520
You know why you how you climb
it on skis or you take them off

214
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,080
and climb with your boot.
But that's still like, I feel

215
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:28,120
it's.
Gonna be a bit of both.

216
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:29,840
I don't know, we'll just have to
watch.

217
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:32,600
We'll just have to watch.
This week starts this weekend

218
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:33,760
too.
That's amazing.

219
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:34,240
Yeah.
Coming.

220
00:10:34,560 --> 00:10:37,200
It's coming.
Well, great, I can't help with

221
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:39,760
that at all because I my
shovel's broken so.

222
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,280
I would be terrible.
Might be a.

223
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:43,880
Terrible.
You're not climbing any.

224
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:46,360
Mountaineering.
When you say broken like in

225
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:50,200
half.
Not quite, but it is in a sad

226
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,560
state.
Oh well.

227
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:55,000
The It's funny you should bring
that up because.

228
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:58,400
It's very snowy.
I looked at my shovel yesterday

229
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:00,400
and I thought, what am I doing
here?

230
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:02,840
Like, what am I?
What am I?

231
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:05,920
What am I doing here?
How am I doing this?

232
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,840
How is this still working?
Because the bottom, if you're

233
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,320
watching this, if you're
listening to the podcast, I

234
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:15,480
can't really describe the bottom
of my shovel accurately enough,

235
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:18,200
but it's like this like, you
know.

236
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:21,200
It's like a WAVY line.
It's a WAVY like half of it is

237
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,120
worn away or plastic.
Or.

238
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:25,840
Yeah, yeah, 'cause it's plastic.
Hmm.

239
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,560
Yeah, and you're really?
Digging at the ice with that

240
00:11:28,560 --> 00:11:33,000
thing, aren't you?
Well, I've been using it a lot,

241
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:38,040
let's put it that way.
Yeah, like at times 3 or 4 times

242
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:39,680
a day.
Yeah.

243
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,680
And the ice wall from the plow
does a number on it.

244
00:11:42,680 --> 00:11:48,640
Yes, that's not fun either.
I do have a, a snow blower which

245
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:53,640
I've brought out twice I think.
But most of the time I try to

246
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:57,160
look at what's out there and go,
well, that's exercise, so I'll

247
00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,880
do it right.
You know, it's not now

248
00:11:59,880 --> 00:12:02,600
everything I read for people
that are getting older and

249
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:04,880
older, it's not a great thing
for you to be doing out in the

250
00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:07,080
cold.
It's heart attacks that are

251
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,680
results of shovel.
Yeah, it's insane.

252
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,320
So I'm taking.
My life into my own hands when I

253
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:14,680
go out there and shovel.
I hope you have a real snow

254
00:12:14,680 --> 00:12:17,280
blower though because a neighbor
of mine has one of those smaller

255
00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:18,640
electric ones.
No.

256
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:20,640
Why?
And he's just, and trying to get

257
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:23,640
at that ice wall is like.
Yeah, I know they're.

258
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:24,640
Just the.
Silliest.

259
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:26,760
Thing for like an hour.
I was whatever I the.

260
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,680
Last snow he was already out
there do working on that.

261
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:33,480
I went out after shovel my whole
driveway and finished and went

262
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:36,480
in and he was still at it.
Yes, because I only had a shovel

263
00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:38,120
and my shovel sucks.
Wow.

264
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:40,040
Yeah.
And but when you have one of

265
00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:41,840
those, I think you're just
determined.

266
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:42,920
Yes.
I bought it.

267
00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:45,280
I'm using.
It for it, I'm using this damn

268
00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:47,920
thing, you know it's.
Snow slower and we haven't used

269
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:50,480
it a lot.
We've only used it one time this

270
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:52,480
year.
Otherwise, what we're both

271
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,960
shoveling.
But you are definitely casually

272
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,640
using the word we a lot.
Yes.

273
00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:01,000
Well, I do shovel.
Do you and snow blow?

274
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,400
Oh, you OK?
I don't cut the grass, but I do

275
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,400
those two things.
Yeah, but well, actually, Janet

276
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:08,640
does help me with shoveling some
Ashley.

277
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:10,040
Shovel quite a bit too,
actually.

278
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,520
Yeah, we went out the other day.
It's nice to have help.

279
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:15,720
It is, but that is actually part
of my problem.

280
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:20,640
Because when you use the same
shovel year after year, yes, and

281
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:24,200
it gets worse and worse, yes,
you just adapt to it, Yes.

282
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:28,200
And when someone else comes in,
she's very quick to point out,

283
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:30,240
you know the shovel is terrible,
right?

284
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:31,120
Yes.
Yes.

285
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:34,880
But you, yeah, in my case, I
want her to see that because I

286
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:38,040
need the proof when I need
complain about it.

287
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:41,720
Yeah, well, because eventually
I'm going to have to say I need

288
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:44,840
a new shovel and I'll get.
I'm not saying that.

289
00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:47,760
I was just going.
To say just go buy a new shovel.

290
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:51,720
So ours has a wide plastic
bottom and the handle though

291
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:57,040
instead of being straight in at
a 90° angle is like like a 45°.

292
00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:59,760
Angle at this point.
And it was a really good shovel,

293
00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:02,520
brand new.
It's a metal shaft.

294
00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:06,000
It's very heavy duty.
It's got a really sharp metal

295
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:09,120
strip on the bottom of the
plastic shovel, so you can

296
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:12,920
really get at that ice that's
all peeling off now and all

297
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:16,960
wonky at the bottom and then the
handles on a huge angle.

298
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:21,040
So you're really like beside the
shovel as you're trying to lift

299
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:21,600
the snow.
How did?

300
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:25,160
The metal handle bend.
It's the heavy stuff at the

301
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:29,120
bottom every time, and you try,
and because the shovel's so

302
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:33,360
wide, you try and feel it, but
it's too heavy and it ends up

303
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:36,360
bending.
So it turns out I'm stronger

304
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,120
than the shovel, which on one
hand makes me feel better.

305
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,760
Yeah, but it's also a disaster
to use.

306
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:43,640
Why won't you you get a new
shovel?

307
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:47,040
Because I can't be the guy at
what?

308
00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:49,400
At Home Hardware, Canadian Tire,
whatever.

309
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:53,480
Going in during a snowstorm just
to buy a brand new shovel?

310
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:55,160
You don't want to be.
That guy, I just don't.

311
00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:57,680
You can't do it.
I can't do it when they're sold

312
00:14:57,680 --> 00:14:59,280
because that's when people need
them.

313
00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:02,240
Yes, and that's when they Jack
up the price and they stick them

314
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:05,080
right When you walk in, there
they are and you.

315
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:05,880
Go.
What?

316
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:09,320
That's exactly what I'm looking.
For shovel, but a shovel, no.

317
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:10,440
What's the problem?
You don't want to be.

318
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:11,680
I don't want to be that guy
either.

319
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:14,640
I hear you.
There's no that guy, There's no

320
00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:16,160
guy.
It's just everybody needs a

321
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:17,200
shovel.
It's winter.

322
00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:20,480
And they they throw the junky
ones at the front like I want to

323
00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:25,920
do researching and find a good
one or wide one a bigger one

324
00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:27,920
time.
'Cause now it's bent well.

325
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:31,400
It's lasted for years.
I've logged past that form and I

326
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,760
just go and I get AI, get a
shovel.

327
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:37,560
I'll get the cheapest 1 I can
get and then it ends up doing

328
00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:41,360
what mine has done.
But I just I hate buying a snow

329
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:42,400
shovel.
Yeah, I hate it.

330
00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:44,440
Hey, hey.
I don't know how much.

331
00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:47,720
The cost strong enough Word.
Yeah, this ones been so good for

332
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:49,360
so long.
I have no idea how much it

333
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:53,440
costs, so I can't.
I'm just going to hate the price

334
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:55,480
of a show.
I don't know, probably like $100

335
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:56,200
or something.
I don't know.

336
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:58,800
I'm going to hate it.
Just assuming.

337
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:02,520
I don't know.
I just hate buying a snow

338
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:03,760
shovel.
And part of the reason I hate

339
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:08,000
getting a snow shovel is because
I really nobody, I, I don't mind

340
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:11,680
cutting my lawn.
As you know, even though cutting

341
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:16,760
your lawn is similar to
shoveling snow in that you have

342
00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:20,480
to do it no matter what, you got
to cut your lawn and then it

343
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,040
grows.
When you cut your lawn,

344
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,960
magically it grows and then you
have to keep cutting them again.

345
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:30,720
Yes, snow.
To me, shoveling snow is such a

346
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:34,960
complete waste of time.
It's just a waste of time.

347
00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:37,080
Got to get around, you have to
shovel it.

348
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,080
I know, but I hate it.
Yeah, I hate shoveling.

349
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:43,440
He likes that I.
I do it and I like my like, I'm

350
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:46,680
very anal about my driveway.
I want it to be clean.

351
00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:48,720
I want it to be drivable.
I don't.

352
00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,360
I do look after it, but I hate
it.

353
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:54,240
And I've often thought maybe
it's not that bad if you just

354
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,200
don't shovel.
Yes, and there are people that

355
00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:57,960
don't.
Yeah, I mean, get rid of you

356
00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:00,800
can't get through an ice.
Wall but your driveway Just

357
00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:03,240
leave it can't back out.
No, you just leave it.

358
00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:05,760
If there's some there, you keep
packing it down.

359
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:11,520
Why did the standard become a
completely clear driveway?

360
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:13,400
I don't know.
Down to the pavement.

361
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:15,160
Why is that the standard want to
be?

362
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:18,119
Just that's functional.
Like the grass thing is a

363
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:21,560
standard like that's you don't
need to have perfect graph, but

364
00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:24,240
the driveway needs to be clear
so you can get in and out.

365
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,160
That's ridiculous.
No, that's ridiculous.

366
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,160
Yeah, but you don't also form
and want to be that guy that

367
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:32,120
doesn't show his driveway after,
I don't think.

368
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:35,280
Because, you know, you look
around and if you see somebody

369
00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:37,800
that does a nude, you go like,
Oh yeah, look at that guy.

370
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:41,200
Probably living his best life.
He ain't got time for this

371
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,920
nonsense.
He's got more important things

372
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:44,400
to do.
He's.

373
00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:48,440
Inside the house, watching TV,
he doesn't need to do that.

374
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:50,960
Exactly.
Well, like, there we just had a

375
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:54,000
snowstorm and you better believe
I was walking the dog around

376
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,160
thinking, oh, those people
haven't been out yet.

377
00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:57,520
Of course.
Oh, those people haven't.

378
00:17:58,040 --> 00:17:59,720
Oh yeah?
Well, of course you're telling

379
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:02,080
kids to read All My Bus.
Yes.

380
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:04,960
That's the reason we shovel,
boy.

381
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:21,040
This is due to underwhelming
demand with Dave, Rachel and

382
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:24,440
Foreman, the podcast that's
lasted longer than anyone

383
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:25,800
thought.
Really.

384
00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:28,920
Or even wanted including us.
Three years, Can you believe?

385
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:29,880
That.
That's right.

386
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:31,440
That's right.
Is that all?

387
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:34,760
Still here is that all.
Feels longer, Feels longer.

388
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:38,400
Feels longer.
I have also have something I've

389
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:41,800
been doing for a very long time.
Not necessarily with you guys,

390
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:46,080
but how'd you like that segue?
I'm not sure.

391
00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:48,560
I'm not keep going.
I I'll have to weigh in on how

392
00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:51,480
this ends.
OK, I have been having a

393
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:55,920
Christmas dinner with my
childhood friends for 28 years.

394
00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:57,120
OK, that works.
I counted.

395
00:18:57,120 --> 00:19:01,080
This is our 28th year getting
together for Christmas dinner in

396
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:03,960
January.
Now it used to be before

397
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:05,280
Kristen.
Anyway, we're all busy.

398
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:09,480
So it's it happens in January.
And so we now we go out for

399
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:11,680
dinner because we're all kind of
in different cities.

400
00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:15,600
So we meet here in London, which
is where we're from, and we go

401
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:18,360
out for dinner.
We've been going to this place

402
00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:21,240
in Wortley Village for the last
couple years.

403
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:25,560
It's in an old house and there
are ghosts.

404
00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:28,760
Right.
We and we, Dave, if you don't

405
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:31,240
recall, we've hashed this out.
We have.

406
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:33,400
We've hashed this out on episode
108.

407
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:38,440
Our table was kind of a weird
shaped table.

408
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:41,000
It's kind of like an oblong
table in a Bay window.

409
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:45,320
And all of a sudden, out of
nowhere, the water carafe just

410
00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:48,880
falls off the table and crashes
and breaks.

411
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:52,200
We're looking at each other
like, did we hit this somehow?

412
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:54,120
I don't know how this thing fell
off.

413
00:19:54,120 --> 00:19:56,920
You know, we're feeling badly
that their water carafe is

414
00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:58,680
broken.
Now they're mopping it all up.

415
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:00,360
And then another wait just comes
over.

416
00:20:00,360 --> 00:20:03,120
And she says, you know, we
bought all these new water

417
00:20:03,120 --> 00:20:06,640
carafes a few months ago, and we
don't break a lot of things here

418
00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:09,920
at all.
But we have broken four of those

419
00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:13,960
since we bought them and last
time it happened.

420
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:17,720
I feel like, you know, nobody
touched it either, and everybody

421
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:20,240
thought it's a ghost just
knocking it off the table.

422
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:23,640
And so we were like, I think
that's what happened.

423
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:29,400
So we get there and I say to my
friends, remember last year when

424
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:31,320
this happened?
And they're like, oh, yeah,

425
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:33,960
that's right.
So the server comes over and she

426
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:36,320
seats us, and then she comes
over to give us the menus.

427
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:40,120
And we're like, we were here
last year and the carafe broke.

428
00:20:40,120 --> 00:20:45,360
And she's like, I remember that
she's like, we lost a lot of

429
00:20:45,360 --> 00:20:49,600
those carafes and and I noticed
that they now have different

430
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:53,400
ones And she's like, you can see
over there on the wall, we still

431
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,920
have a few of the old ones left,
but we did get the new ones.

432
00:20:57,080 --> 00:21:00,480
Now the new ones haven't broke,
but it's like the ghost didn't

433
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:04,240
like the old ones.
And then just, and then

434
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:07,160
accepted, oh, these are staying,
whatever.

435
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:10,960
And we were like, that's wild.
She's like, well, you know, we

436
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:13,560
have a regular who comes in and
she's a medium.

437
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:19,280
And she said to us, do you guys
know that you have two ghosts

438
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:22,880
here?
And they were like, really?

439
00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:27,120
She said, yeah, there's a guy
that stands at the end of the

440
00:21:27,120 --> 00:21:29,360
bar and he just kind of watches
everybody.

441
00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:34,400
And then there's a a woman who
runs up and down the stairs and

442
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,400
she wants to get something out
of the attic because it's a big

443
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:38,640
old house, right?
So this.

444
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:42,000
Medium is seeing these.
I don't know.

445
00:21:42,120 --> 00:21:43,040
She knows.
Yeah.

446
00:21:43,120 --> 00:21:44,720
The people, you know, people can
do that.

447
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:48,840
No, they can't.
Yes, they can.

448
00:21:49,120 --> 00:21:50,480
No, they can't.
They can't.

449
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:51,760
They can't.
They can't know.

450
00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:55,680
People who can do that, I'm
telling you, I have friends who

451
00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:59,640
can do that, and they don't like
to tell anybody about it because

452
00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:01,360
they don't want people to think
they're crazy.

453
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,920
Call now if you can.
Yes, my goodness.

454
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:10,400
So she's telling us all about
the 2 ghosts that live there and

455
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:14,080
how, you know, it feels eerie
when you go upstairs, but she's

456
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:17,520
like the basement, I feel fine.
But when I go upstairs, I'm

457
00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:20,760
like, oh, you know.
And so we're like, yeah, we, we

458
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:23,920
all, we're all nodding like,
yes, like the carafe thing

459
00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:25,360
really kind of freaked us all
out.

460
00:22:25,360 --> 00:22:27,880
And she's like, well, you
weren't the only one.

461
00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:31,080
And then another server came
over and we were kind of talking

462
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:33,160
with him about it.
He's like, I'm new, but even I

463
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,880
know, like, that's a thing here,
you know?

464
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:39,440
So yeah, it's a haunted.
It's a haunted restaurant, but

465
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:42,320
the food's really good.
Why is the restaurant delicious?

466
00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:44,600
Can you tell me why it's a?
Big old house in Whartley.

467
00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:45,440
It's like a very.
Old.

468
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:47,960
That's what I think of all of.
You 100 plus year old house or

469
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:50,120
whatever you.
People that believe in ghosts.

470
00:22:50,120 --> 00:22:53,400
Yeah, right.
Well then why isn't every single

471
00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:56,880
hospital haunted?
Because lots of people die

472
00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:58,320
there.
Well, I don't.

473
00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:00,080
Know why?
Isn't every nursing home

474
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:02,040
haunted?
Well, it could.

475
00:23:02,120 --> 00:23:06,240
Probably is.
I guess it's probably.

476
00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:09,600
This is ridiculous.
I don't want to see a ghost.

477
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:12,160
Don't come for me, Ghosts.
I don't want you.

478
00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:15,360
Then why do you go back?
The ghosts, the food, is that

479
00:23:15,360 --> 00:23:17,200
good?
Isn't I forgot about, But yeah,

480
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:18,400
the food is quite good.
Come on.

481
00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:20,880
How do you forget about the?
Ghosts, are you quite good?

482
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:25,040
Well, I didn't remember about
the carafe, yes, but so let's

483
00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:27,400
back up.
To the medium assessment how do

484
00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:31,920
we just how we're not done with
that by the way we can't go with

485
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:36,640
did you know there's 2 here and
they say oh neat the end no what

486
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,520
do you mean what are they doing
what do they want why are they

487
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:42,120
there Yes who?
Are they the She said.

488
00:23:42,120 --> 00:23:44,040
The one woman wants to get into
the attic.

489
00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:46,320
I don't know why.
We'll figure it out.

490
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,640
Don't ask critics.
I don't know, Foreman.

491
00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:51,920
Go slow, attics.
They press the medium to do more

492
00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:54,480
work.
How do you know ghosts love

493
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:55,520
addicts?
You watch they're.

494
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:58,200
Always an addict.
Watch of way too many movies.

495
00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,560
They're always in the attic.
Always in the attic.

496
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:03,840
Yes, they're in the attic.
Look, when Patrick Swayze was

497
00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:06,640
that ghost in that movie,
Whatever, whatever strange

498
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:09,120
things that Patrick Swayze was
the ghost.

499
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:11,280
He wasn't.
He loved to do pottery.

500
00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:13,320
He wasn't in the he.
Loved to do pottery.

501
00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:15,720
He wasn't in the attic.
He was on the subway.

502
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:17,360
He was all over the place.
He.

503
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,960
Follows her around, doesn't he?
Come on.

504
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:22,120
I don't know, Dave.
I'm just telling you what I

505
00:24:22,120 --> 00:24:23,320
know.
I no.

506
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:26,160
No, for the rest of the night
because I was facing the bar

507
00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:28,040
you're looking for.
The guy that stands at the bar

508
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:30,200
and.
Looking for the ghost.

509
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:32,280
The rest of the night I didn't
see him.

510
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:35,560
You should have asked for one of
the really carafes that they

511
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:37,680
smash.
Yeah, you should have asked just

512
00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:39,320
to test it again.
Well, if he doesn't like this

513
00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:41,600
one, let's bring it back out and
see if he smashes.

514
00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:42,360
It again.
Why?

515
00:24:42,360 --> 00:24:44,800
Yeah, well, they.
Had about 5 on the wall but they

516
00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:46,760
probably had more last year
obviously.

517
00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:48,200
Uh huh.
Before they all broke are.

518
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:51,920
They fastened to the wall.
No, they're just on a shelf.

519
00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:55,840
They were on a shelf waiting to
be used, but then they started

520
00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:58,280
using these new ones.
OK, different, different style.

521
00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:00,760
Whatever you think.
Yeah, anyway, that's my ghost

522
00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:02,960
story.
I've never I don't want to see

523
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:06,360
one now I'm scared because I'm
home alone but I well.

524
00:25:06,360 --> 00:25:09,440
Apparently you know all kinds of
people that talk to ghosts and

525
00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:12,080
see them and see them.
Yeah, I do.

526
00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:16,400
I do well.
They tell me, but I have to

527
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:18,920
believe them at their word.
They it's their experience.

528
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,720
Well, and now we all have to
wait till what next year for you

529
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:24,600
to get more out of this medium.
I guess so, unless they.

530
00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:28,200
Figured out in the last year.
Medium wasn't there when I was

531
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,720
there, it was the servers
telling us that they don't.

532
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,160
Care.
They need more from this person.

533
00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:34,600
What?
Are they going to?

534
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:37,360
Do they just go to work every
day with the ghosts and it's

535
00:25:37,360 --> 00:25:39,920
fine?
Yes, assess it, I don't know.

536
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:42,560
I don't know.
Yeah, you got a couple of

537
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:44,320
ghosts.
Maybe the ghosts smell of food.

538
00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:46,400
They wish they could have it
'cause it is quite good.

539
00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:48,680
Come on Medium, get yourself a
free meal.

540
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:49,520
Be like.
What do you do?

541
00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:52,720
I'll eat here for free, but you
know, I'll tell you about the

542
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:54,320
ghosts, but I want my meal for
free.

543
00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:57,360
Maybe I should get tired.
Of losing carafes and have the

544
00:25:57,360 --> 00:25:59,600
place exercised.
Come on.

545
00:26:00,120 --> 00:26:01,840
But yeah, I spent good money on
these.

546
00:26:02,360 --> 00:26:04,680
Leave us alone.
I and you know what, if they're

547
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,640
offering that deal, I'm going to
go there and say I'm a medium.

548
00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:10,080
Oh my God.
Just make up a fake story about

549
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,280
the.
Exorcism isn't the exorcism the

550
00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:14,040
devil.
I'm I I probably have that

551
00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:15,840
wrong?
Gave are you up for a brodate?

552
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:18,760
A brodate.
Two mediums go to Wartley.

553
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:25,000
Well, let me know how that goes.
OK, alright, sure, I'm in.

554
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:42,360
I'll watch you from the bar.
This is due to underwhelming

555
00:26:42,360 --> 00:26:44,880
demands of podcasts that you may
have noticed does not have a

556
00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:48,040
sponsor this week.
Sad sad podcast once again.

557
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:53,720
Yeah, sad.
Yeah, po poating emoji.

Got lots of stuff
underwhelming.ca.

566
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:28,160
I created a video this week of
the 2016 trend because it's been

567
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:30,520
going around right to go back 10
years.

568
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:33,720
And you're always on that, Rach.
Well, I thought it would be fun.

569
00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:36,960
Rachel never met a trend she
didn't want to jump on board

570
00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:38,080
with.
No, that's true.

571
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:41,520
Well, someone's got to post on
our socials, so I made the

572
00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:44,680
video.
Kelsey wrote to us and said what

573
00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:48,120
year were April the giraffe and
Rachel pregnant at the same

574
00:27:48,120 --> 00:27:53,040
time?
Yeah, 2020. 16.

575
00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:57,000
Yeah, 2016, Yeah, Or maybe.
Early 2017 cause Kendall was

576
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:59,160
born in March 2017.
Oh, could be.

577
00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:04,280
So it might be I remember being
in my little pen and and April

578
00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:07,520
was in her pen and we we were
pregnant at the same time.

579
00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:10,080
I do recall that.
Yeah, I remember.

580
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:12,240
That we had you in your pen.
It was like less than 10

581
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:14,280
seconds.
Probably the most viewed thing

582
00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:16,560
we've ever done.
Is that right?

583
00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:18,000
That's.
So funny.

584
00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:19,960
We're just milling around.
Yeah.

585
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:23,200
Angela sent us a message and
said happy birthday, Dave.

586
00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:27,360
Oh, it was my birthday.
It was my birthday on the 21st

587
00:28:27,360 --> 00:28:28,640
of January.
Yeah.

588
00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:31,480
How was your birthday?
Oh, and And Angie says.

589
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:33,760
Angela and Angie both say happy
birthday.

590
00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:36,960
It was good.
I mean, if you count having a

591
00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:38,400
snowstorm on your birthday is.
Good.

592
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:40,760
I just, Yeah.
I just shovel.

593
00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:43,000
I do all that right?
This way Barb says.

594
00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:46,600
Barb says happy birthday too.
Yeah, at least it wasn't on the

595
00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:48,160
saddest day of the year this
year.

596
00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:50,280
Some days it is, some years it
is.

597
00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:51,760
But it was.
Yeah, it wasn't there.

598
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:52,440
This.
Year, right?

599
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:55,320
It was a Tuesday.
So it's always a +1 night.

600
00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:58,680
Brenda says Dave and Rachel and
Foreman.

601
00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:01,040
Do you miss going to all these
concerts and meeting the

602
00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:04,360
singers?
No, because I still do.

603
00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:06,400
Yeah, Foreman.
Still going and no.

604
00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:10,080
Sometimes.
Sometimes, but not like, yeah,

605
00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:13,400
you know.
Who misses that is my now my, my

606
00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:18,400
daughter, who's 19 all of a
sudden has taken a, you know, a

607
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:22,680
different direction in her
musical taste and is, you know,

608
00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:26,080
and I actually said she too bad
you weren't doing this a few

609
00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:27,520
years ago.
Why?

610
00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:33,280
Well, I, I could have taken you
a lot of stuff and I did when

611
00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:35,240
she was younger.
I took her to a lot of stuff.

612
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:38,560
But then, you know, when she had
a certain age, it wasn't cool

613
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:39,440
anymore.
Right.

614
00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:41,120
Yeah.
Anyway, too bad.

615
00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:43,320
I get it.
I miss it when the weather is

616
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:46,280
good, let's put it that way.
When the weather is lousy like

617
00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:50,200
it is like when in the middle of
January, I have no desire to

618
00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:53,240
leave my home anytime after
three in the afternoon.

619
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:56,000
Right.
I get it.

620
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:59,200
And for like for Rock the park
that was in the summer, but Rock

621
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:03,480
the Park was always so hot.
It was either blistering hot or

622
00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:06,480
a or a storm rainstorm, but that
never.

623
00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:07,520
Bothered that.
Never bothered.

624
00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:11,920
By the way, on your 2016 video
Rachel from White Feather Skin

625
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:14,960
Therapy in Port Stanley shout
out.

626
00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:17,200
Heard of her?
I know I had a friend that was

627
00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:19,160
going there.
Yes, Rachel, would you like to

628
00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:22,640
us to talk about your business
more intent?

629
00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:28,240
Yeah.
She just said Foreman does look

630
00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:31,640
like Foreman from that 70s Show.
I see it now, yes.

631
00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:35,440
Oh yeah, that's why it's name.
Till this for you didn't know.

632
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:38,560
Yeah, Foreman.
I was in college with Foreman

633
00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:42,080
and now his program at Fanshawe
doesn't exist because they

634
00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:44,520
cancelled it.
But even then he was called

635
00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:45,760
Foreman.
Yeah, he was called that.

636
00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:50,680
What I would argue that if we
get the right headgear on him,

637
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:54,520
he is Bernard the Elf.
Oh, absolutely, we get that wig.

638
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:57,720
Oh, that we should see he's
Bernard that I'm going to see if

639
00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:01,000
they sell a wig.
Kimberly sent us a message.

640
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:03,440
Every time.
Every time it's a.

641
00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:05,880
Christmas I got.
The Santa Claus is on.

642
00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:09,920
Like literally throughout the
entire two months, November,

643
00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:12,880
December and all I think of when
I see Bernard.

644
00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:15,200
Every time I see Bernard I think
Foreman.

645
00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:18,280
It screams Foreman.
Foreman, Yeah.

646
00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:22,600
Thanks, I talked about Fabfitfun
recently.

647
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:25,360
Did you?
And how I'm back on Fabfitfun.

648
00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:29,520
Yeah, I can't understand that.
Kimberly sent a message and said

649
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:32,040
you're not the only one Rachel.
I'm thinking I might start a

650
00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:35,000
subscription soon myself.
It's true.

651
00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:37,640
It's like self-care.
Sure is it.

652
00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:42,400
Kathleen replied to our video,
our 2016 video and she says OMG

653
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,080
it's all of you on BX93 take me
back.

654
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:47,600
Yeah, can't do.
That we had a good time.

655
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:49,360
It was a great way to make a
living.

656
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:53,920
Well, now that I'm on a country
104, number one for country hits

657
00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:56,120
everybody.
Yes, yes, that's right.

658
00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:00,120
Available on iHeartRadio.
So on your same device you're

659
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:03,920
listening to this on, you can
listen to me live 2 to 6 weekday

660
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:06,600
afternoons.
I'm I've been enjoying Foreman

661
00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:12,040
because I am in my vehicle
usually right around 3:30 every

662
00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:14,240
day and I.
And you listen.

663
00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:16,560
Sometimes you can must catch a
Fast forward.

664
00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:19,000
Hey, Dave.
A fast I caught that last week.

665
00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:19,600
Yeah.
Did you?

666
00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:21,880
Yes, Yes.
Well, some days are better than

667
00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:24,280
others.
I'll take your feedback if it's

668
00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:27,360
positive.
Yeah, we'll discuss later.

669
00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:33,480
But Onset Station, you may have
also heard Rachel last week.

670
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:36,920
Yes, now I missed.
That, but I did hear someone

671
00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:39,520
call regarding it.
Yes, well, I was talking about

672
00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:42,360
the bus stop thing where I told
the kid to get on the bus to go

673
00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:44,160
to school because he wasn't
going to go to school.

674
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:46,840
And that afternoon, I thought,
boy, this would be such, like,

675
00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:49,600
the good thing to get some
feedback on because Rachel and I

676
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:53,640
or Dave and I sided with Jeremy
and thought, yeah, probably

677
00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:56,640
shouldn't have done that, right?
Yeah, everybody in Jeremy Army's

678
00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:58,280
work, though, thought Rachel was
correct.

679
00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:01,840
And it turns out everyone
listening to me at my work also

680
00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:04,200
thinks Rachel's correct.
Really.

681
00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:07,480
Every but a lot of feedback
instant.

682
00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:10,600
Feedback, people.
Really wanting to get their two

683
00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:13,000
cents in on this and they all
agreed with you.

684
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:15,720
Like Billy by the way, who says
hi?

685
00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:18,600
Shout out Billy, who listens to
this all the time too, so she'll

686
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:21,400
hear this again, Billy said.
I would also say the.

687
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:25,760
Same thing to that child.
You would tell a stranger's kid

688
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,440
at the bus stop stop hey, get on
the bus.

689
00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:30,800
I would.
Strongly suggest that they get.

690
00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:33,440
On the bus, I would not enforce
that they get on the bus.

691
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:37,600
However, if they were also doing
other things at the bus stop, I

692
00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:41,000
would also take the parental
role and ask them to stop doing

693
00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:42,960
whatever it is that they were
doing.

694
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:46,160
Right.
And if I were his parent, I

695
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:49,720
would thank you for doing that.
If I were him, I would hate you.

696
00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:53,200
That's what I'm not loved by all
children, only my own.

697
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:59,400
I had a hunch, yeah.
That's funny.

698
00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:01,720
Wow, OK.
And there's another I.

699
00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:03,600
Really thought people would
hammer me for that.

700
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:04,800
No.
Nobody.

701
00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:07,320
Does everybody agrees?
There's a certain thing that

702
00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:10,920
there, there, there seems to be.
And I, you know, like you can

703
00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:18,719
take this with a grain of salt
that that I feel like there's I

704
00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:22,280
want to use the word nosy,
Rachel.

705
00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:26,880
I don't think it's nosy if I'm
right there and see him not

706
00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:28,800
getting on the bus.
I think it is.

707
00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:31,920
I think it's just village you.
I think that's.

708
00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:34,719
Why you either?
You're either someone who's

709
00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:37,400
nosy, Rachel.
Okay.

710
00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:40,639
Or you're not Dave Foreman.
No, yes.

711
00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:45,480
But Speaking of the word village
and people named Rachel.

712
00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:51,600
I am so thankful to the other
Rachel for doing this because I

713
00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:56,040
think we need to remember the
saying that it takes a village.

714
00:34:56,280 --> 00:35:00,560
So on behalf of all working
parents who can't get to the bus

715
00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:03,720
stop in the morning with their
kids, absolutely I would want

716
00:35:03,720 --> 00:35:06,640
somebody to tell my child to get
on the bus.

717
00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:10,720
Conversely, if you were that
child and thought you had the

718
00:35:10,720 --> 00:35:14,000
whole world figured out and your
mom would never catch on that

719
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:16,880
you were staying home all day.
Well, obviously as a child I'm

720
00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:19,400
not going to love it because the
kids taking days off.

721
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:23,920
Yeah, but doesn't matter.
Your job right now is to.

722
00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:25,200
Go to.
School.

723
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:29,120
So you're at the bus stop, take
the extra 10 steps and get

724
00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:30,760
yourself on that bus and go to
school.

725
00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:33,200
Doesn't matter what the kid.
Thinks takes a village, doesn't.

726
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,200
Matter what, the kids don't know
what's what's best for them.

727
00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:40,560
Oh, you do.
You know, you know what's best

728
00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:42,280
for that child.
You don't even.

729
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:44,640
You don't know to stay.
Home all day.

730
00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:48,240
Stop it, Rachel.
It you don't know what that

731
00:35:48,240 --> 00:35:49,440
child needs.
You don't.

732
00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:51,120
The child should be going to
school.

733
00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:52,320
You don't know.
That I know.

734
00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:54,720
I don't know what he needs, but
I know that he should be at

735
00:35:54,720 --> 00:35:57,600
school that day.
Maybe he doesn't like school.

736
00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:00,640
Maybe he wanted.
Maybe he needed a mental health

737
00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:03,360
day.
OK, maybe he's getting bullied

738
00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:05,200
at school and his.
Mom, you don't know.

739
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:09,920
OK, fine.
But I told him to go and he did.

740
00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:13,120
There you go.
It happened.

741
00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:21,560
All right, go Medium.
Wish I could talk to ghosts.

742
00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:22,400
That'd be sweet.
