1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:03,760
OK, I have a new winter activity
that I won't tell you about

2
00:00:03,760 --> 00:00:06,920
until we're live.
I bet you it's not skiing.

3
00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:13,040
I I'll bet you it's not either.
I have a a kid who turned 18,

4
00:00:13,040 --> 00:00:16,880
became an adult, and shortly
thereafter did something very

5
00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:19,200
adult.
Oh boy.

6
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:23,720
Well, Harley Harley got a
milestone Christmas present, so

7
00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:24,320
it's.
Hot.

8
00:00:25,080 --> 00:00:27,200
Don't tell me.
You could shame all you want.

9
00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:29,880
I cannot.
Oh, you did it.

10
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:38,240
This is due to underwhelming
demand.

11
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:41,000
We back, We back.
Yeah.

12
00:00:41,160 --> 00:00:42,520
Happy new Year.
Happy new Year.

13
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:45,080
Can I still say that?
14th today.

14
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:45,920
No, you.
Cannot.

15
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:47,200
No, you shouldn't.
Nope.

16
00:00:47,480 --> 00:00:49,840
But I will.
Haven't seen anybody or talked

17
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:51,280
to anybody for a while.
So it's.

18
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:52,680
Your problem.
Yeah, that's your.

19
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:57,480
I will point out that this is
the New Year's resolution of

20
00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:00,400
podcast.
So if your resolution was to

21
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:04,080
start listening, welcome and we
thank you.

22
00:01:04,879 --> 00:01:06,720
Thank you.
Thank you for listening to the

23
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:10,040
1st 5 minutes and then giving up
on it like your other

24
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:13,320
resolutions and.
Perhaps, perhaps if your

25
00:01:13,320 --> 00:01:17,920
resolution was to stop
listening, we also understand

26
00:01:17,960 --> 00:01:19,880
and you're not hearing this
anyway, so piss off.

27
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:23,360
Yeah, yeah.
Or conversely, thanks for coming

28
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:24,880
back.
Or thanks for coming back.

29
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:26,760
Whatever works.
Whatever works for you.

30
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:31,120
We are Dave, Rachel and Foreman
and this fabulous high quality

31
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:35,600
podcast is brought to you by
Cabs For A Cause.

32
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:40,400
It's back, It's back.
Yes, it'll be April 2nd at the

33
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:44,240
Canadian Dairy Expo, once again
in Stratford, raising money for

34
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:46,200
the Children's Health
Foundation, benefiting the

35
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:50,080
London Children's Hospital.
Anyone throughout Western

36
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:53,560
Ontario, Southern Ontario,
Northern Ontario, that's your

37
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:57,240
Children's Hospital for sure.
Caps for A Cause has been

38
00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:59,520
advertising with us for a few
years now.

39
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,800
Daryl and Sarah Marcus started
this because their son was at

40
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:06,240
Children's Hospital and they
wanted to give back and so far,

41
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:11,680
Daryl says they have raised 100
and $50,000 in total over all of

42
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:15,000
the years so far.
So they sell calves and take no

43
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,720
Commission because all that
money goes to Children's

44
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,360
Hospital.
And they just had an update last

45
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:23,200
week saying that they are
currently working hard to

46
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:27,360
assemble this year's Calves for
A Cause lineup, and an extremely

47
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:30,360
exciting group of heifers is
starting to come together.

48
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,280
Good to hear.
Yeah, I don't think we need to

49
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:37,720
know anymore.
Well, if you have an show calf

50
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:41,520
or genomic giant that you're
willing to consign, yes, please

51
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,040
do not hesitate to reach out to
Cavs for A cause.

52
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:45,640
Look them up on Instagram or
Facebook.

53
00:02:45,640 --> 00:02:47,480
Apparently there was more.
Well, thank you.

54
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:48,760
There was.
Thank you for it.

55
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:50,960
There was more.
OK Cavs for A cause.

56
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,880
Thank you very much.
In the period between when we

57
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:59,000
last recorded a podcast and we
are now recording this, my

58
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,760
youngest daughter and I have
two.

59
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:06,320
I've I've I've so many kids, I
can't keep track.

60
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:08,560
So many.
Not that many.

61
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,960
One's about our age and the
other is what?

62
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:16,360
Just turned legally an adult 18I
have.

63
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:20,320
Three adult children now.
Teen year old.

64
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,320
Wow.
Yes, yes, yes.

65
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,160
She's.
Probably so excited.

66
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:32,040
I think.
I mean, I'm her birthday. 19's

67
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:36,240
bigger, I know.
Yeah, well, at one point I

68
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:43,640
recall three or four months ago
when she said can we go to

69
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:49,760
Montreal for my 18th birthday?
I'm like, no, we're not taking

70
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:50,840
you to Montreal.
I don't.

71
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,400
And that's not happening.
I mean, it's not.

72
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:57,000
How about just got no where?
I spent mine, yes.

73
00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:58,520
Well, did you go?
I bet.

74
00:03:58,640 --> 00:03:59,520
You.
Yeah, that's right.

75
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:02,080
If you're in eastern Ontario,
everyone's just going to Hall

76
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,040
and going to the gas station
getting beer.

77
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:09,240
I would tell you I took, we took
her and her friend to Mexico

78
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:15,640
last March break and all they do
in Mexico is look at the year of

79
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:18,600
birth.
So she got the adult bracelet

80
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:20,640
when we went.
Oh, they don't care about the

81
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:21,399
month?
Well, wait, because.

82
00:04:21,399 --> 00:04:23,280
It you.
Have to be 16?

83
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,760
How old do you have to?
Be 18 in Mexico, it's 18 in

84
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,440
Mexico, so she got.
But you went, it was the same

85
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,600
year and she's at the end of the
year I see last.

86
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:32,640
Winter.
Yeah, Yeah.

87
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:36,720
Her birthday is at the end of
the year and her friends is in

88
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:40,160
September of the year.
So her friend didn't get one,

89
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:44,160
but she did.
After the I believe the first

90
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:51,240
night or the second afternoon,
the I think 3 or 4 bars at the

91
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:55,480
resort were on to them.
Yeah, you can have one.

92
00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:58,000
You got to stop ordering for the
other one.

93
00:04:58,000 --> 00:04:59,640
You can't give it to her.
Yes.

94
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,000
I Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah.

95
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:03,800
They catch you on.
They catch you on.

96
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:07,720
OK, so anyway, Long story short,
when you're 18, you're an adult.

97
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,720
And yes, I it was funny.
Because she's going to vote for

98
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:11,680
this year.
Exactly.

99
00:05:11,840 --> 00:05:14,520
That's We can vote.
I can buy lottery tickets.

100
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:18,800
Pretty soon on her birthday.
I said, hey, happy birthday, you

101
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,520
can vote now.
That's important.

102
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,440
I don't really care about.
Well, she should care.

103
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:26,480
It's a very important thing.
Very important.

104
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,520
Privilege.
I think she does care, but I

105
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:30,440
mean it.
She's 18, I get.

106
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:33,960
It was early on her birthday
morning and that's probably not.

107
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:36,320
Was up in a grill.
Yeah, not what she wanted to

108
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,760
hear from her dad.
No, but Charlie, you get to pick

109
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:40,200
our next governor.
Come on.

110
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:44,120
Governor.
Oh, stop with that nonsense.

111
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:46,880
That's right, the Gulf of
America.

112
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:48,720
Totally stop.
Can you believe?

113
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:50,280
Like we just stop.
Yeah.

114
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:56,440
So anyway, as it turns out over
Christmas we have very good

115
00:05:56,440 --> 00:06:02,120
friends and we like to exchange
with our friends experiences as

116
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:07,560
gifts.
So we got I got together with my

117
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:13,840
friend, the male friend and we
got our wives for Christmas a

118
00:06:13,840 --> 00:06:18,240
trip to Detroit.
We know that both of our wives

119
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:22,560
are huge Neil Diamond fans and
the Neil Diamond brought

120
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:26,280
Broadway musical, which is
called A Beautiful Noise, was

121
00:06:26,280 --> 00:06:29,640
playing at the Fisher Theatre in
downtown Detroit.

122
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:30,840
Didn't even know what was the
show.

123
00:06:30,840 --> 00:06:32,320
Let's let's go.
What?

124
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:33,760
We'll do that.
We'll book a hotel.

125
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:36,240
We'll get tickets to the show.
Cool four times and go.

126
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,560
That is, by the way, that is so
good, so good.

127
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,760
So good, so good.
That's what it's actually

128
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:43,640
called.
Look, the kid that does Neil

129
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:45,560
Diamond.
The kid that does Neil Diamond

130
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:50,120
on this and it's the Broadway
touring show 1 American Idol.

131
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:52,720
I don't know his name.
He was.

132
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:54,800
You don't.
Know his name?

133
00:06:55,280 --> 00:06:56,960
Not that.
I watch American Idol I.

134
00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:01,280
Just don't remember, but he
sounded so much like and looked

135
00:07:01,280 --> 00:07:04,040
and sounded like it was like
going to see.

136
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:08,800
It was unbelievable.
But we got the night before, we

137
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:15,880
got from our wives tickets to go
see the Leafs play the Red Wings

138
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,160
in Detroit.
Now we're Leaf fans.

139
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,120
He's more hardcore Leaf than I
am.

140
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:26,680
And I've been to Scotiabank.
I'm telling you right now, the

141
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:30,760
Little Caesars Arena in Detroit,
hand over, fist over.

142
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:34,080
So much better.
There better be a hot and ready

143
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,840
around every corner I.
Swear to God, Oh, it's every.

144
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:39,560
It's everywhere.
First person to tell me that in

145
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:42,120
the last week.
Yeah, nobody else told me that.

146
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:43,840
Well, it's pretty much a brand
new arena.

147
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:45,040
I mean every.
Yes, and it's.

148
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,440
Beautiful.
Any new arena now is going to be

149
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,200
miles above older ones for.
Sure.

150
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:52,600
And, and, and the best part for
me, well, maybe it's not the

151
00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:55,640
best part for you, Foreman, but
I lived in Windsor, so I already

152
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,040
know this.
And I lived in Windsor years and

153
00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:02,080
years ago when Detroit was lousy
and Toronto were lousy.

154
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:09,880
But whenever the Leafs play in
Detroit, it's probably 6040

155
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:11,160
Leaf.
Red Wing.

156
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:13,760
Oh yeah.
'Cause they all come in and we

157
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:16,960
ran into people on the highway,
they're coming in from Toronto,

158
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:21,920
people from Windsor, Windsor
people love the Lions, don't so

159
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:23,920
much love the wings, you know
what I mean?

160
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:27,560
There, there is even the, even
the, the, IT was the coach of

161
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:31,400
the Buffalo Sabres a couple
weeks ago was was in a pregame

162
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,200
interview and he's like, well,
you know, if we can score early

163
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,080
and take the crowd out of it,
blah, blah, blah.

164
00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:37,559
It's a home.
Game.

165
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:39,080
It's a but it's a game.
The Leafs.

166
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,159
And it's easier to get a tick
it.

167
00:08:41,919 --> 00:08:43,520
Is.
Cheaper Detroit game and

168
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,600
slightly cheaper so even.
With the exchange rate is

169
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,000
cheaper, yeah.
So that's our Christmas gift.

170
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:50,560
Why am I bringing this up?
Well.

171
00:08:50,560 --> 00:08:53,280
Yeah, Charlotte turned 18, and
now here's your Christmas gift.

172
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:57,560
Because because she has a job.
OK, yes.

173
00:08:57,560 --> 00:09:01,880
And she was included.
So there was a ticket purchased

174
00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:08,000
for a Leaf game and a ticket
purchased or a Neil Diamond play

175
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:11,200
for her.
She was the only person, I

176
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:15,480
think, who was aware that these
gifts were being given to

177
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:19,960
everybody because dad has said
something to her and mom has

178
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,440
said something to her and said,
well, you got to have this date

179
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:24,080
off and you got to have this
date off.

180
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:26,600
She's stressing she can't get
rid of the shift.

181
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:30,440
So we finally said, fine, you'll
be OK at home.

182
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:34,520
You're 18, you're an adult, you
can stay at home on your own.

183
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,760
Sure.
And Jana got an e-mail from our

184
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:47,640
adult daughter saying I got a
tattoo, I thought.

185
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,960
She threw a party, but that is
so much worse.

186
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,160
Worse is it?
Well.

187
00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:56,840
Is it?
It's more permanent I guess.

188
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:58,680
She was never going to throw a
party.

189
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:00,840
I thought you'd gone and she was
going to.

190
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,720
You came home and she'd throw a
party and that was her.

191
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,960
She.
Now has a tattoo was a permanent

192
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:09,640
reminder of turning 18 I guess.
What is it?

193
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:12,400
How big is it?
It's where is it?

194
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:16,880
It's not big. 6 inches.
But it's like this and.

195
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:18,840
Oh, it's long and thin.
It's can't.

196
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:21,960
Hear your hand measurement.
Years can't hear your hand

197
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:23,560
measurement.
Yeah, I know, I know.

198
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,120
It's hard to hear my hand
measurement.

199
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:31,280
It's two years, the birth year
of her mother and the and the

200
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:34,840
birth year of her father, which
are quite distant as you well

201
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:36,120
know.
Different, yeah.

202
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:39,640
I bet you the tattoo artist had
some questions about that.

203
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:41,080
Well, I don't know.
She didn't say.

204
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:43,880
Perhaps she didn't say.
She's quite proud of her tattoo.

205
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:45,600
It doesn't.
Well, that's very sweet

206
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:47,080
actually, that she got your
birth.

207
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:52,160
Year yeah it's very small OK
we're not neither her nor

208
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:57,400
neither her father that's me or
her mother are tattooed I'm not

209
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:01,080
I don't really get tattoos but
I'm older and I come from a

210
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:04,960
different generation so I I
understand that people do but

211
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:09,240
you guys are tattoo less it's so
odd for your.

212
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:13,480
Age only because my dad has a a
tattoo that he actually got when

213
00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:16,920
he was 18.
And the story goes that he took

214
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:20,320
his 16 year old brother and the
two of them got matching

215
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:24,320
tattoos, which they still have,
and came home and boy, did they

216
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:27,840
get in trouble for taking the
underage brother to the tattoo

217
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:30,080
shop downtown Toronto because
that's where they lived.

218
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:33,120
Yeah, to get that done.
But I'm not against tattoos.

219
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:36,400
I just have never found one that
I want to have forever.

220
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:40,160
I'm not her.
Choice of your birth years is

221
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:43,160
meaningful and seems to.
Be well, it's just.

222
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:44,120
Nice.
Get sick of that.

223
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:47,000
It's not like a butterfly that
means nothing or something,

224
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:48,280
right?
It's not something that doesn't

225
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:50,880
mean anything.
When your daughters turn 18 and

226
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:53,600
the first thing they do is come
home with a tattoo, what's your

227
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:55,880
reaction?
Motherfucker.

228
00:11:55,880 --> 00:12:00,720
Yeah, exactly.
I would probably be very silent

229
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,480
for a bit, which might be scary.
Not, not thrilled.

230
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:06,240
Not thrilled.
Not to say that I did.

231
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,120
Look, it's over and I, I'm OK
with it.

232
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,000
I like.
I don't really, you know, it

233
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:13,960
doesn't.
You're like my baby's.

234
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:15,800
Tattoo.
Look at her baby skin.

235
00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:19,360
It's your body that used to live
inside my body.

236
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:20,440
But you know, whatever.
Yeah.

237
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:24,440
All I did was make you in my
womb and birth you and bring you

238
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:25,800
into the world.
If you.

239
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:28,520
Listen to that.
If you listen to this podcast

240
00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:31,240
and you and you have tattoos,
and I know lots of people who

241
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:34,280
have tattoos and I get it.
I don't understand it.

242
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:36,160
Yeah, I get that a lot of people
like them.

243
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:38,880
You're probably going what's the
big deal?

244
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:42,400
It's not a big deal, but it was
a bit of a bit.

245
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,080
Well, it's, you know, it's kind
of a milestone, I think when

246
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,360
your baby does something so
adult.

247
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:51,640
Yeah, that's very adult.
I don't think it's a bad idea.

248
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:54,160
I think it's, you know, I like
tattoos if you're, if you're

249
00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:58,200
into it, My worry was someone
who is 18 getting a tattoo or

250
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:01,560
somebody very young getting a
tattoo is that are you going to

251
00:13:01,560 --> 00:13:03,880
like that forever?
You know, but.

252
00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:06,920
She does something that's very
meaningful to her and.

253
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:08,880
That's that's.
A good choice.

254
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,640
And I would say, you know, if
you would like to be present for

255
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:15,360
her next milestone, Dave, the
Leafs are in Montreal this

256
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,120
Saturday.
No, we're not doing that.

257
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:36,480
We're not going.
This is due to underwhelming

258
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:39,960
demand.
The dry January of podcast.

259
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:42,600
You know something that seems
way longer than it actually is.

260
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:47,360
That's.
Dry January seems longer.

261
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:50,080
Well, I would think.
I don't know.

262
00:13:50,560 --> 00:13:55,760
I've never tried it.
No, January itself feels longer

263
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:58,280
than it is.
So, yeah, especially with all

264
00:13:58,280 --> 00:13:59,400
this snow that we've been
getting.

265
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:04,240
That's true, although I've never
tried dry January, but I am

266
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:08,960
trying a new winter activity.
You guys wasn't bad.

267
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:12,280
Actually I think you were going
to say I'm trying high January,

268
00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:14,520
which is a completely different.
Thing that's different.

269
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:17,880
I'm not trying that necessarily.
I would like you to try that,

270
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:19,760
but.
OK, maybe next year, maybe next

271
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:24,760
year, this January I've got a
new winter sport that I'm taking

272
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,960
up and I have not told you guys
before now, OK, Because I.

273
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,360
Know which one?
Would you like to guess?

274
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:34,080
We're already pretty much two
weeks into January, so I'm

275
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:35,880
guessing you've already done
this.

276
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:41,160
Not quite, I'm actually it.
Starts all right January. 17th

277
00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:43,280
it begins.
There is a start date so it's

278
00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:46,600
not just on me to do it.
OK, good.

279
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:48,200
Wow.
Do you want to guess or do you

280
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,520
want me to just tell you what
I'm what I'm going to be doing?

281
00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:51,680
We know.
That for sure.

282
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:54,800
No, it's not skiing.
It's not well, no, it's not

283
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,800
skiing.
The skiing was still my plan.

284
00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:02,040
This year's my year, guys, this
year, this year's my year.

285
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:03,440
I'm going to take lessons.
I'm going to.

286
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:04,800
We're going to start to see the
whole.

287
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:09,040
Family the date today.
But this kind of came up and it

288
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:11,520
was I've I kind of was shamed
into.

289
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,600
It it's not snowshoeing.
No, no.

290
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:15,880
It's not snowboarding.
I don't.

291
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:21,320
Think it involves I don't, I
don't believe, I don't think it

292
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:25,280
involves skating.
It doesn't move skating.

293
00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:26,400
Oh.
It.

294
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:30,880
Does yeah clue #1.
You're definitely not doing it.

295
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:34,040
So there's a public skate.
On January 17th.

296
00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:39,880
Skate on January No, what I have
been roped into is a learn to

297
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:44,160
play women's hockey.
OK, well, you're never doing

298
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:47,480
that.
You're not doing that.

299
00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:49,520
Ever nice to be invited though?
I am.

300
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:53,480
Are you coaching?
Not only am I doing it.

301
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,440
No, she's passing.
Absolutely not coaching.

302
00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:01,800
Not only have I already signed
up and paid, I have been

303
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:04,560
completely outfitted with
equipment.

304
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:08,840
From really by my.
Static husband who thinks this

305
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:13,040
is both hilarious and endearing
that I am taking up a new sport.

306
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:14,600
I don't.
Know about endearing but it's

307
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:16,680
hilarious.
Well, it is hilarious and

308
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:23,280
endearing, but it's not 5050.
So I was going to say no to

309
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:25,280
this.
This is not something.

310
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,360
I think it's the dry January
that's.

311
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:31,320
Got to be there we go.
That just clicked in.

312
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:34,880
Could be, could be that I'm just
getting too old, but that was

313
00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:35,920
funny.
Thank you.

314
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:40,000
Thank you for that.
It's not 5050, you are correct.

315
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:44,120
Truly, the next time you talk to
me, we'll be a hockey player.

316
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:46,760
How and what position are you
planning to play?

317
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:51,400
I don't even I can barely.
Name Name a position on a

318
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:52,920
hockey.
Team Center.

319
00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:54,960
How?
Boldly No, I'm not the goalie.

320
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,920
We do have a goalie.
It's all women who are learning

321
00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:01,960
to play.
And so it's it's all levels from

322
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:05,480
those who can't skate. me and I
and at least one of the person

323
00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:06,160
skate.
Can you?

324
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:09,040
No, no.
At all.

325
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:13,119
I can skate, I can like get out
there, but I'm very slow and

326
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:14,240
timid.
You have a hockey.

327
00:17:14,319 --> 00:17:17,200
But I think when I, yes, I've
got a hockey stick from my

328
00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:20,319
neighbor, he's going to lend me
his and it's a good one.

329
00:17:20,319 --> 00:17:22,359
I was like, don't give me your
good hockey stick.

330
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:23,880
He's like, no, it's not like
you're going to be.

331
00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:26,359
Oh, he knows not to give you a
good.

332
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:28,560
One on it.
That's the only way you're

333
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:32,000
standing up.
Yeah, I think I'll feel better

334
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:35,520
once I'm out there and I have my
equipment on because if I fall,

335
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,920
I'm less likely to break my hip.
Well, it depends on what you

336
00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:39,840
fall on.
I don't.

337
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:41,520
I don't know whether you'll hurt
yourself.

338
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:46,000
So anyways it it ranges from.
From my right, yes.

339
00:17:46,360 --> 00:17:50,400
Very sort of that.
It ranges from people who don't

340
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:54,560
know how to skate, but most most
of us have never played hockey.

341
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:56,520
Some of the most kids who play
hockey.

342
00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:58,200
This is in my.
Town.

343
00:17:58,360 --> 00:18:01,520
This is my local arena.
They actually have an hour or

344
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:03,160
what is this?
2 hours, an hour?

345
00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:07,440
An hour set aside?
Set aside for a weekly.

346
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,600
We're doing 10 weeks.
Never played, Never played

347
00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:12,040
hockey.
Now none of them.

348
00:18:13,120 --> 00:18:15,560
If you don't mind, it's a lot, I
know.

349
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:18,160
If you don't mind, I have so
many questions.

350
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:21,400
I bet you do, that's why I saved
telling you what it was till the

351
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:24,120
actual if we're doing.
It yes, this is a complete

352
00:18:24,120 --> 00:18:26,080
surprise to permanent.
I know, I know.

353
00:18:26,120 --> 00:18:28,280
Delightful surprise at that.
Oh yeah.

354
00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:33,640
If you don't mind me asking,
how, how much?

355
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:38,360
Did that was $150.00 to sign up?
That's a bargain I think then.

356
00:18:38,360 --> 00:18:43,200
I had to get, I had to get all
my equipment, which I'm several

357
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:45,480
$100 in now.
Yes.

358
00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:49,440
Just equipment.
Even with used and borrowed and

359
00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:51,040
whatever, it's still that much,
yeah.

360
00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:53,120
I needed a helmet.
I needed everything but skates.

361
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:56,120
Everything, including a Jill.
I didn't even know that was a

362
00:18:56,120 --> 00:18:58,480
thing, but now I have one.
Well, do you want to get hit

363
00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:00,720
there?
No, but I didn't think anyone

364
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:02,600
was going to lift the puck that
high and aren't.

365
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:03,680
You right.
Well.

366
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:05,760
It's not just pucks.
It sticks.

367
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:08,480
It sticks skates.
That's.

368
00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:10,680
True.
The butt end of a stick I.

369
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:14,280
Didn't even know how.
I don't know how to dress myself

370
00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:15,600
like I don't know how to put
everything.

371
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:19,320
I haven't put all of it on yet.
This is but over Christmas my

372
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:22,520
husband was so gung ho.
Are more entertaining than I

373
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:24,960
thought it would be.
This is so entertaining.

374
00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:28,080
Over Christmas my husband was so
gung ho about this.

375
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:30,800
He was the one that ordered all
the equipment and he.

376
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:33,160
Showed you how to get dressed.
Well, he hasn't.

377
00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:35,880
We haven't put it all on yet,
but we will and I will send you

378
00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,120
a picture.
I know.

379
00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:42,440
All the other girls, I'm in a
group chat now and all the other

380
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:45,720
girls have have shared photos of
them dressed in all their

381
00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:47,000
equipment.
Oh really?

382
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:53,360
Well, I need to see that now.
Do you, do you have a just a a

383
00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:57,480
regular just throw on jersey or
do you have a team jersey?

384
00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:02,320
No, we just bought black jerseys
plain, but we have pink socks

385
00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:04,800
because it's a women's team.
I need that.

386
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,680
Some people have pink sticks,
but the stick I'm borrowing is

387
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:09,360
black and orange.
That's fine, I don't care.

388
00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:12,760
I literally I bought the
cheapest things that I could.

389
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,280
Well, of course, yeah.
Except the neck guard, I got a

390
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,040
bit of a higher one because it
the other ones weren't

391
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:18,960
comfortable.
Well, yeah, but I mean, it's

392
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:21,160
important not to be cheap in
certain areas.

393
00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:24,080
Neck guard would be one.
Yeah, Jill would be another.

394
00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:25,600
Right.
Yeah, OK.

395
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:28,040
Helmet, perhaps the third.
Yeah, we.

396
00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:30,320
Got a good helmet?
Yeah, OK, good.

397
00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:33,000
Yeah, so I'm.
Actually using Jeremy's old knee

398
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:36,240
pads and elbow pads, that's
because he's got which need to

399
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:40,320
be washed because I don't know
when they were used once, but I

400
00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:46,480
mean, I've got those.
I, I got pants and you know, and

401
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:48,960
I even said to my mom and my
sister, I'm like, I got to go

402
00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:52,560
find hockey pants.
And my sister says, why do you

403
00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:54,880
need hockey pants?
Just wear snow pants.

404
00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:58,080
I said you can't.
You can't just wear snow pants.

405
00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:03,320
That's how little my family
knows about how to even play

406
00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:04,120
and.
Dress for.

407
00:21:04,120 --> 00:21:07,560
Hockey I, I said to Jeremy, I'm
like, do you want to come to the

408
00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:09,680
first practice that we're going
to have to get?

409
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:13,320
Is that really a game?
I believe every every single one

410
00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:16,280
of these women's husbands will
be there and then a few cases of

411
00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:19,280
beer might tag a lot too.
Well, we've told them all not to

412
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:21,800
come, he said.
Nobody can come until at least

413
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:24,760
Week 3.
But I do need someone to dress

414
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:27,560
me and place me on the ice.
I think so, Jeremy said.

415
00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:29,720
No, so I think one of the other
Timeless.

416
00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:34,000
Cases I'd help get you on the
ice and then tie.

417
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:37,360
My skates maybe?
Just enjoy the hell out of that.

418
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:41,120
Then cheers, David.
Yeah, all of the husbands want

419
00:21:41,120 --> 00:21:44,240
to come 'cause they, they all
think it's hysterical that we're

420
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:47,200
even trying.
Now, this was brought up to me

421
00:21:47,360 --> 00:21:50,640
before Christmas.
And then I said, no, no, I don't

422
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:52,840
think so.
I'm really not the person who

423
00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:54,840
should be doing that.
And then we were all at a

424
00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,240
Christmas party and somebody
there said, you're going to

425
00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:58,880
join, right, 'cause we're all
going to join.

426
00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:00,600
I'm like, no, they're like, no,
you should.

427
00:22:01,120 --> 00:22:04,800
Anyway, I had my arm twisted
enough that I agreed to do it

428
00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:06,920
now, I think.
This is the best.

429
00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:11,680
Yeah, this I really is the best.
Truly not really looking forward

430
00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:14,240
to it.
I'm not like excited about it.

431
00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:18,840
I know I'm very bad at sports.
I am not athletic, but I am at

432
00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:22,400
the age now and I have, I have
had so many humiliating

433
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:27,280
experiences with sports that I
have just accepted that I'm bad

434
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:31,560
And I so now I'm just like, I
don't care that I'm bad and I'm

435
00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:35,160
just going to try.
And I feel like I'm 41 and I'm

436
00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:38,040
showing my kids.
You're never too old to try

437
00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:39,920
something new.
Absolutely and showing.

438
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:43,640
Myself, you're never too old to
try something new and I think

439
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:46,520
that that's an important.
It's just important to try and

440
00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:48,280
try and learn if I like it or
don't.

441
00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:50,960
I may not do it next year, but
I'm going to do it this year and

442
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:52,000
see how that's.
All well and good.

443
00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:54,600
I agree with you 100%.
That's great.

444
00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:57,320
It's a wonderful lesson for
girls to learn.

445
00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:00,960
Yeah, but how long before
there's a game?

446
00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,400
Because we're coming.
We're having games.

447
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:05,360
I don't think we're having
games.

448
00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:07,840
Foreman, do you not want to go?
Well, don't they need someone to

449
00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:09,120
do?
Don't they need a couple of

450
00:23:09,120 --> 00:23:11,200
professional?
We will go.

451
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:13,960
You need some professional
broadcasters perhaps to to

452
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:16,840
provide play by play, play by
play commentary.

453
00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:17,960
I don't.
Think it'll be that?

454
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:21,560
Some music?
Oh yeah, we could do that.

455
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:23,440
No, please.
Don't come.

456
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:26,480
I don't want you there.
I don't want I I don't want my

457
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:28,400
husband there or you 2
especially.

458
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:31,560
He's coming, No?
I know where I know.

459
00:23:32,120 --> 00:23:35,800
I know where you live.
I know it's Fridays at 9:00 PM

460
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:37,960
is when we're.
Now I'm coming.

461
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:41,080
But then there's a few Saturdays
thrown in there, so we're not

462
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:44,120
there every Friday because it
was hard to get ice time, I

463
00:23:44,120 --> 00:23:45,560
guess.
So it's kind of a random

464
00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:48,800
schedule.
So we told husbands nobody can

465
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,800
come to a week 3, which I still
think is very premature.

466
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:56,040
But on week two, we're having
someone come and teach us power

467
00:23:56,040 --> 00:24:00,000
skating.
Good, whatever the I just need

468
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:01,720
someone to teach me regular
skating.

469
00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:05,480
You will need regular, yes
regular standing before.

470
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:07,280
You'll need a power skating.
I can't.

471
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:10,360
I can go around once and my feet
hurt not to take a break, so I

472
00:24:10,360 --> 00:24:13,680
don't know how I'm going to.
Do a whole You and all these

473
00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:17,400
women are learning to play
hockey, but how many other women

474
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:20,880
on this team will also like you
be learning to simply skate?

475
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,760
Some of them, yes, because
there's at least one other woman

476
00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:25,600
who said, well, I can't, I can't
stop.

477
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:28,040
But I said neither can I, I just
run into the boards with my

478
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:30,000
hands.
So there's there.

479
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:31,360
There's a few.
Of us it's.

480
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,640
Not going to be.
It's not graceful or elegant.

481
00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:37,800
We don't know what we're doing.
There's a few people on the on

482
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:40,800
who have signed up and I resent
this a little bit who who have

483
00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:44,800
played before, which I think is
complete bullshit because you

484
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:46,880
should not.
Learn to play at the if you've

485
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:49,040
already played.
Exactly, if you played when you

486
00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:51,080
were a kid, go play on the
league.

487
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:54,920
You never played hockey.
You've never ever played hockey,

488
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:56,960
Rachel dated.
That's how it works.

489
00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:58,000
Yes, You're.
You're.

490
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:00,600
A blade, but there's there.
Are going to be people that are

491
00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:03,200
better at it than you.
Everybody will be better than

492
00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:05,920
me, which is fine.
I that's my whole life.

493
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:09,560
Everyone's better than me.
Well, and she's 6 foot five, 250

494
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:11,800
lbs and playing against you all
times.

495
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:15,800
Always, always.
This is going to make my winter.

496
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:17,920
Thank you, Ray.
Yeah, I'll be next week.

497
00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:19,560
I'll be in there Friday night,
Dave.

498
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:23,120
I'll bring a six pack, a
Bluetooth speaker and Yakety

499
00:25:23,120 --> 00:25:24,320
Sax.
All right.

500
00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:44,360
This is due to underwhelming
demand the the podcast that's

501
00:25:44,360 --> 00:25:47,880
like snow swells in January.
You know, something you probably

502
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:49,960
don't want or need what you're
going to get anyway.

503
00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:52,600
It's pretty much us give.
It to you.

504
00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:55,840
Yeah, here it is.
Too mad you're stuck with it.

505
00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:02,200
Well, I am stuck with a daughter
who has a milestone of a gift

506
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:05,720
given to her at Christmas.
Oh, another milestone for a

507
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:08,880
daughter.
OK, yeah, Dave's 18 year old.

508
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:09,760
What?
What's up with?

509
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,760
Charlie, now I am intrigued.
Yeah, she's 11.

510
00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:18,840
So in Grade 6, she, in year
2025, she is turning 12, right?

511
00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:23,080
When you're 12, there's, there's
more responsibilities.

512
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:26,800
You can be home alone.
Sometimes you're looking at

513
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:30,960
babysitting for other children.
There's a hell of a lot of swim

514
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:34,880
practices at the Canada Game
Center in the North End of

515
00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,760
London, which is very far from
Saint Thomas.

516
00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:42,400
Yes, we're not always with her.
There's trips you can go between

517
00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:45,040
our house and grandma and
grandpa's house, which is

518
00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:48,560
relatively close.
But what if something happens in

519
00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:50,040
between?
Right.

520
00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:53,320
Right, all of this to say, can
you guess what gift that hardly

521
00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:55,040
got this year?
You did.

522
00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:56,640
You did.
You broke down, didn't you?

523
00:26:56,880 --> 00:27:00,680
Yeah, yeah, she's got a phone.
You got her a phone.

524
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:04,120
It's a slippery slope, isn't it?
You?

525
00:27:04,120 --> 00:27:07,280
Cave.
It's an old phone.

526
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:09,160
We didn't.
We're not those parents who got

527
00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:10,440
the kid the new phone and we
cut.

528
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:12,120
The old phones, no.
Don't.

529
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:13,720
Do that.
No.

530
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:15,360
People do it.
Yeah, no.

531
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:19,000
I do that.
You know, my kids have a phone

532
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,960
too that they share and it
doesn't leave the house unless

533
00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:25,600
they are going around town.
This phone does not have data

534
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:28,040
that is not a part of its plan
whatsoever.

535
00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:31,360
It's talk and text.
She can connect to our Wi-Fi,

536
00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:37,240
but Google makes it very easy to
set up a family plan and I'm

537
00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:40,760
listed as the family manager,
which Ashley does not appreciate

538
00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:43,840
me getting that title in her
Google family tree.

539
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:47,200
Not when she already knows that
she's the family manager, the

540
00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:49,680
actual family manager, family
manager.

541
00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:55,960
That according to Google.
But you can set up a child and

542
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:59,200
there's strict limitations of
what they can and cannot do

543
00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:00,880
what?
And they need permission for

544
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:02,760
everything.
You can't download anything, you

545
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:05,040
can't go anywhere unless you get
permission first.

546
00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:06,680
So is.
This an Android phone.

547
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:09,840
Yes, it is.
It's like our old Ashley's old

548
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:13,840
Samsung S9.
OK, so it's run by Google.

549
00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:15,560
That kind of a phone, it's a
nightmare.

550
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:17,360
It's got a curved screen.
I forgot about it.

551
00:28:17,360 --> 00:28:19,520
It's got a nice curved screen
and some extra features.

552
00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:22,360
Because of that it's I forgot.
So it was a nice bumped up and

553
00:28:22,360 --> 00:28:24,200
under the tree and and a
surprise.

554
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:28,040
Yes, but we had already got in
and and got it all set up and

555
00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:30,480
done and it was ready to go so
she could open it and it was

556
00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:31,480
working.
Yeah.

557
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:33,960
So when she opened it, how was
that moment?

558
00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:40,120
Yeah.
Like her head exploded and she'd

559
00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:43,520
been working to like it's really
the only thing she really asked.

560
00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:46,960
For right, right, all right.
It's her only real true ask.

561
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:50,360
So in the last couple weeks, has
she like, how has it been with

562
00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:51,840
her?
Is she being responsible with

563
00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:55,440
it?
Yes, and I would say for all and

564
00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:59,680
even myself included and all
this lead up and how I shouldn't

565
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:01,040
get the kids a phone and
whatever.

566
00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:02,640
Oh, that's bad.
It's too early.

567
00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:06,240
They're too young.
Yeah, so far it's great.

568
00:29:06,600 --> 00:29:07,920
OK.
Because.

569
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:12,840
When your child has a phone, you
can treat her as your personal

570
00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:15,800
secretary.
Well, how does that work, hey?

571
00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:19,320
Harley, can you text grandma and
tell her blah blah blah blah.

572
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:22,480
Harley, why don't you?
Granny would really love to talk

573
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:23,960
to you.
Why don't you go call Granny,

574
00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:27,760
please, Dad?
Can you Dad?

575
00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:32,200
Yeah.
Yeah, Granny probably was

576
00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:32,720
talking.
Do you?

577
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:35,160
Text her from the basement and
say, can you bring me a beer?

578
00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:37,120
Oh no, we do that.
We do that all the time.

579
00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:39,280
I haven't got there yet.
Supper.

580
00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:44,240
She has so many text
conversations on the go and it's

581
00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:53,560
all with my sisters.
My brother in She's calling in

582
00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:58,080
Halifax like she's she's all
over, it's all family except for

583
00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:02,960
like 1 1/2 friends have a phone
that she knows 'cause one has to

584
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:04,880
is like yours has to share it
with her siblings.

585
00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:06,480
But she's got like four
siblings.

586
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:09,680
So sometimes she's texting to
said friend's brother

587
00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:15,160
occasionally, but otherwise she
doesn't have that many friends

588
00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:17,880
with phones.
So she it's all family, which is

589
00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:19,200
all great for them and it's
great for.

590
00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:23,040
Her yes, that's it's true.
Ours is the same in that the

591
00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:26,040
only people my kids can text are
family and they don't know how

592
00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:28,400
to add anybody else.
Like they haven't figured that

593
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:32,480
out how to add another person to
message right, which is fine.

594
00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:35,560
But so they got the phone and
Julia was into it because she's

595
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:38,600
the same age as Harley.
She's 11 and she was into it for

596
00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:41,280
a while and she'll take it if
she's like going out, you know,

597
00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:43,600
around the block to the her
friend's house or whatever.

598
00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:45,800
But then often they just leave
it at home now.

599
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:48,000
They don't care.
They can't take it to school.

600
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,040
They're not allowed to take.
It to school, it's not going to

601
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:52,000
school.
No, if she's on a sleepover or

602
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:55,320
something she could take it, but
schools don't even let them have

603
00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:59,720
the phones now anyway, which I
think is good, so they don't.

604
00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:03,000
It's kind of lost its luster to
be honest, and they're just

605
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:05,400
great still on their iPads.
That's what I'm hoping, which is

606
00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:06,600
also on my.
IPad.

607
00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:09,920
They have iPads.
Yeah, they each have an iPad,

608
00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:11,880
Yeah.
Well, yeah, my girls have

609
00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:14,080
tablets.
They're not good ones.

610
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:15,760
No, they're old.
What are we?

611
00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:17,960
Talking about here, what is?
Well, that's.

612
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:22,120
Watching Netflix and Disney.
Yeah, they don't watch the TV,

613
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:24,600
they watch their iPads.
I can't figure out why they

614
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:27,760
don't care about their phone.
Yeah, because they have iPads, I

615
00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:29,800
know.
But you can't can't call someone

616
00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:31,320
on an iPad when they're at the
park.

617
00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:34,400
And Harley's got like a like a
30 something day streak going on

618
00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:36,240
Duolingo trying to learn Spanish
so.

619
00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:38,280
Wow.
That's what she does with her

620
00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:41,760
time on her screens.
Wow I wish my kids would do

621
00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:44,080
something smart and not watch
family YouTube.

622
00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:49,120
I'm not doing that, no.
I should start doing Duolingo.

623
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:05,400
This is due to underwhelming
demand.

624
00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:09,160
The podcast with Dave, Rachel
and Foreman sponsored brought to

625
00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:12,280
you by a Calves for A Cause
coming up April 2nd, Correct

626
00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:15,320
Forman April 2nd.
Yeah, the Canadian Dairy Expo in

627
00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:18,680
Stratford.
So if you have a calf you would

628
00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:22,520
like to put on offer, all
proceeds, 100% of the

629
00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:24,680
commissions go to the Children's
Health Foundation.

630
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:28,560
And if you're looking to
purchase a new calf, these are

631
00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:31,400
the ones you want to buy because
your money helps out Children's

632
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:31,720
Health.

00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:06,360
Gordon who might have cooked a
chicken breast in a microwave

669
00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:09,000
and served it to Foreman?
Might be, might be.

670

Is it's the place we call out
there?

680
00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:34,440
I know.
Oh yeah, I don't know why they

681
00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:36,560
say down East.
Why do they say that?

682
00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:38,600
I don't know cuz it's not really
down it's.

683
00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:39,679
Not down, it's over.
It's.

684
00:34:39,679 --> 00:34:41,120
Kind of.
It's kind of over.

685
00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:42,560
It's up.
It's kind of up.

686
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:44,400
Now it's up a little bit,
Foreman.

687
00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:47,440
Right now, Foreman's down there
in Saint Thomas, That's down

688
00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:49,000
there.
Yeah, I'm down here.

689
00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:52,480
Down there.
We are more S than them.

690
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:55,960
Do they know that?
Yeah, they, I don't know.

691
00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:57,880
We are the southernmost point of
Canada are.

692
00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:00,000
We.
Well, we're in the area, yeah.

693
00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:04,200
We're in the in the area.
Like, it's about an hour from

694
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:06,280
us.
They're more north than we are.

695
00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:06,680
Anyway.
I was.

696
00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:10,880
Just saying, Sarah tolerated a
lot of me in Halifax and she put

697
00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:14,480
up with us making a theme song
for her because her last name is

698
00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:15,760
Fitzgerald.
Yeah.

699
00:35:16,240 --> 00:35:19,920
So if she would call Fitzgerald,
it's a call from Sarah

700
00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:22,280
Fitzgerald.
Oh my God, that's amazing.

701
00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:25,000
I wish I was on the show when
you did that.

702
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:25,840
That's so.
Funny.

703
00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:28,360
I love that.
I love that.

704
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:32,600
OK, Yeah.
Mount Elgin, Katie is what I

705
00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:34,280
would like to refer to Katie as
now.

706
00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:37,200
Yes.
Katie from Mount Elgin when you

707
00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:41,240
mentioned Dave in your headlines
before Christmas, yes.

708
00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:44,600
About a Funeral Home getting a
liquor license, Yes.

709
00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:47,920
Yeah.
Well, she says not headline

710
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:49,560
worthy.
I've been to funerals in

711
00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:52,480
Woodstock with liquor served.
Oh, really?

712
00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:54,880
Yes, when a.
Relative in Woodstock and nobody

713
00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:56,560
served me liquor.
No, she said.

714
00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:59,280
When a relative passed away, we
were offered a choice of three

715
00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:01,520
of their favorite drinks when we
entered the Funeral Home.

716
00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:03,480
Oh, interesting.
Oh, wow.

717
00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:04,920
Well, that's deep.
I don't know.

718
00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:06,400
I don't know what the lies this
was.

719
00:36:06,720 --> 00:36:08,840
That was an American.
Headline with your drink at your

00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:11,120
wedding, You can have a
signature drink at your funeral.

721
00:36:11,680 --> 00:36:15,840
She quite literally sent us the
like the bill of the Funeral

722
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:18,560
Home so we could see.
That's amazing.

723
00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:21,360
Don't tell us surprise.
It's no surprise that people

724
00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:27,280
have a drink when someone dies.
I mean, either as a salute or as

725
00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:30,080
a yeah.
Am I?

726
00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:34,360
We're glad he's gone.
What happens when you purchase

727
00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:38,080
the Tribute Lounge with bar and
attendant with Smart Serve

728
00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:40,800
qualification up to two hours?
Well, I didn't know that was

729
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:43,120
available here.
Like none of us knew that.

730
00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:44,600
So thank you for pointing me
out.

731
00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:45,640
I didn't know.
Yeah, thanks.

732
00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:48,240
Kim something to think about
integrating into your own May

733
00:36:48,240 --> 00:36:50,480
perhaps, maybe.
I don't know.

734
00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:53,040
I'm not integrating anything
into my own OK?

735
00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:54,760
I'll let everybody else figure
it.

736
00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:56,880
Out I we're.
Not there, You don't care.

737
00:36:57,080 --> 00:36:58,760
That's true.
That's not there.

738
00:36:58,760 --> 00:36:59,800
Don't care.
Don't.

739
00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:00,880
Not there.
Whatever.

740
00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:01,920
You want?
Yeah.

741
00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:04,680
Yeah, Fun.
And Ainsley?

742
00:37:04,680 --> 00:37:09,320
Ainsley sent a message to me
saying that Foreman, my husband

743
00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:13,680
goes to Angry Bear Barbershop in
Saint Thomas because I was

744
00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:16,120
talking about my troubles
getting my hair cut before

745
00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:17,160
Christmas.
Yes.

746
00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:21,040
I hope this isn't the place that
you had issues with, but if not

747
00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:22,640
I highly recommend checking them
out.

748
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:26,400
My husband has been going there
and their old shop for 6 plus

749
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:27,960
years now.
We take our sons there.

750
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:31,120
If you go book with Scotty the
owner or Toby.

751
00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:34,840
Angry bear, that wasn't where
you were going.

752
00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:38,040
No.
Okay, but it might be now.

753
00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:45,480
I think it will be.
Okay, we were talking about

754
00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:48,320
Christmas gifts that Daves
friend bought for his wife.

755
00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:51,160
The bidet was one a while ago,
right?

756
00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:54,400
Low flow bidet the low flow.
Oh no, low flow the toilet.

757
00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:57,200
That was a low flow toilet I.
Said it should be the next one.

758
00:37:57,400 --> 00:37:58,960
What did she get this year, by
the way?

759
00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:01,760
I told you we went to the we
went to the play.

760
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:02,480
He did.
Oh, that was.

761
00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:03,760
The head.
That's a good gift, yeah.

762
00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:06,360
Although I didn't ask him what
other things he gave her and I'm

763
00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:08,720
I'm I was there a bidet or?
Should be.

764
00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:10,680
I don't want to.
Round out the bathroom

765
00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:13,080
accessory.
I'm sure he'll tell me now after

766
00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:15,400
years this not what I.
Don't scale right anyway, so.

767
00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:21,960
Bonnie a low flow Neil Diamond.
OK, so Bonnie sent us an e-mail

768
00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:24,680
about bad gifting.
She says you were talking about

769
00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:26,400
bad gifts.
It reminded me of a story my

770
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:28,160
partner told me about his
parents.

771
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:32,520
His dad consulted him on getting
his mom a scale for Christmas, a

772
00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:35,200
bathroom scale.
He warned his dad not to, but he

773
00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:37,920
did anyway.
His mom threw the scale out of

774
00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:41,080
the house when she opened it, so
that was not that.

775
00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:44,280
Mom didn't appreciate getting a
scale.

776
00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:46,440
That that's not a Merry
Christmas.

777
00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:47,920
Not a Merry Christmas.
Yeah.

778
00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:50,000
So if you're going to get
someone to scale, you'd better

779
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:52,520
really know them quite well, I
think.

780
00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:57,280
Well, make sure you know that
they really want and would

781
00:38:57,280 --> 00:38:59,200
appreciate your scale.
OK all.

782
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:00,440
Right, Dad.
Thanks, Rach.

783
00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:04,120
Do you guys remember, do you
remember 1 Christmas?

784
00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:06,840
We were talking about this on
the radio years ago and it was

785
00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:11,920
like, I think her name was Barb.
And she got her to say, I got

786
00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:15,480
the backpack sprayer, the
backpack sprayer.

787
00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:20,120
Oh my gosh, I got a backpack
sprayer from my husband.

788
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:25,040
Like a pesticide sprayer.
Yes, the opening that in front

789
00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:28,360
of all the family, it was like
he was like, oh, let's see if it

790
00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:30,840
fits.
I'm going seriously like.

791
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:35,480
I remember that.
What did she say?

792
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:37,800
They were still married though.
Like there was still.

793
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:40,160
She just laughs about it.
Because.

794
00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:43,560
Because the next year she called
back and said, oh, I'm backpack

795
00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:46,800
sprayer, Barb.
It's backpack sprayer Barb.

796
00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:51,400
They got a brand new shiny red
Camaro, which my husband thought

797
00:39:51,720 --> 00:39:54,160
that he thought I would like,
had it delivered.

798
00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:58,960
Yeah, into his man cave shed.
Lovely convertible, but

799
00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:01,720
standard.
I don't drive standard and I

800
00:40:01,720 --> 00:40:03,680
couldn't drive, so figured that
one.

801
00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:05,760
Yeah, it was a little.
What's a backpack sprayer?

802
00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:11,520
Yeah, that's right.
You really do.

803
00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:13,720
Have to if you have.
The best listeners.

804
00:40:13,720 --> 00:40:17,920
They are so funny anyway.
You know it's important to read

805
00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:20,480
the room.
You really do need to read the

806
00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:23,520
room before you.
Know don't ever, ever buy your

807
00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:27,040
wife a backpack sprayer.
I can guarantee that she does

808
00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:31,080
not want that either at all, but
certainly not as a gift.

809
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:33,000
That's.
Something you go out on a

810
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:36,120
Saturday and you pick up at
Canadian Tire because you need

811
00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:38,200
it.
You don't give that as a gift.

812
00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:41,600
Don't go all in on that, Rachel,
because somewhere, somebody.

813
00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:44,600
I would double down on that.
Somebody wants a back.

814
00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:49,000
OK, you if you a woman, would
like a backpack sprayer from

815
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:53,560
your husband for Christmas, you
let me know if that's something

816
00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:55,520
that would you would really love
to get.

817
00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:59,360
I would like to hear from you.
I want to talk to Barb and see

818
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:01,560
what she's gotten said.
Valentine's Day is coming.

819
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:03,920
Valentine's Day is coming.
I think we're done.

820
00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:13,120
No gift is inappropriate until
you give it a chance.
