We wanted to record a show much ealier in the month but something always came up.  What can I say, it happens!!!

Anyway, we finally got together (the usual 4) and you would think that after this long between episodes, we'd have tons of topics to discuss.  I guess we had a few but for some reason, almost everything revolved around Keith's ass!!

A bit of a shorter show for you this week but hey, we had to cut it short so we could go watch the refs give it to the Sens (ONCE AGAIN!).  Is it really that hard to be a ref in the NHL?  Really?  I mean COME ON!!!  I guess I should save the for the other podcast I do.

Good to be back!! Hope you enjoy the show.

The show starts off with Keith, Joe, myself (Ben) and of course Julien for the first half of the show as Monica is busy upstairs wrapping presents.  We then decide to call Monica to ask her a specific question... we talk a bit on the phone and then she decides to come down and join us for the rest of the show (after we quickly set-up a 5th mic).

Warning you, this is a long show (over 2 hours I think?).  We were having so much fun, we just didn't want to end it.  And when we did want to end it, Keith didn't let us... he had stuff in his notes that we simply HAD to go through.  All worth it though.

Anyway, hope you enjoy the show.  And Julien, if you're reading this... THANK YOU so much for joining us.  You're a lot of fun and we hope we can do this again with you the next time you're in town.  But next time, bring your wife!!

Take it or leave it...

We had lots of fun recording this episode.  Keith doesn't like to swear and fart, we all know that right?  But apparently burping and snorting is okay in his books.

Thank you to the listeners who sent us e-mails this week.  You know we always love hearing from you.  We read one e-mail in this show that sparked a conversation for at least 30 minutes.  That's almost half the show!!  So this is why it's important for you to send us your thoughts or topics... it gives us stuff to talk about. Support TC and keep the podcast alive by sending e-mails, tweets... and... uh... donations??  Crap, I just noticed I don't have the "Donate with PayPal" link on the website?  What the hell?  No wonder the money hasn't been pouring in!!  Oh well...

Hope you enjoy the show.

I don't think the same can be said for this episode.  I think we were all in fine form.  Highly-medicated Monica was back in her usual spot.  A little bit of booze mixed with a little bit of pain-killers makes for a very giggly Monica.  She was in fine form... and Joe was also on fire. He goes on a great rant about uncomfortable high fives which of course, inspired this episode's show title..

Keith had a great costume for his Halloween party so we talked about that... and he shared with us how he got his ears waxed, his face shaved and his eyebrows trimmed.  I don't know how we always end-up focusing on Keith's haircuts and facial hair each week, but we just do.

And myself, I was just there to record the whole thing... and laugh my ass off!  Some very funny parts... hope you enjoy it!!

It was just one of those things where we all had a lot to say (and the length of the show proves that) but there were no "wow" moments... or should I say, moments that typically inspire a show title.  In fact, this episode's show title stems from a segment that maybe we shouldn't have done.  One of our listeners asked us about the Rice Purity Test so I looked it up and we decided to take the test on the show.  Problem with that is the test has 100 questions and we noticed 1/3 into the test that are listeners would probably not find this too entertaining... but we decided to finish the test anyway.

Now don't get me wrong... there were some interesting conversations.  Like when Keith talked about his hair - both the hair on his head and on his chest.  You know... stuff like that!

Monica wasn't able to join us again this week, so of course, her goofy brother Goober sat-in for her.  Thanks Doug.  Now if only you had a laugh like your sister's!?

Hey... maybe Joe will surprise us all with a new Uncle joke next episode??

A bit of a slow start (like usual) but things pick-up approx. halfway through the show.  Alcohol kicks-in and the laughter begins. 

We discussed many things in this very long show... from women's mood during that time of the month, anal bleaching, getting caught masturbating, Ben & Joe's snow boarding trip (without Keith), pillow fights and panties... and tons of other stuff of course.

Enjoy.

I know we always say that we don't edit on TC but in this case, I think we made the right decision.  We will touch on what the topic was (and why we chose to remove that entire section) in our next episode.  You know... some people can be a little sensative when it comes to certain things.

In every show, there's usually one comment or topic that inspires a show title.  In this episode, nothing really stood out.  Doesn't mean the show isn't good, we just seemed to be all over the place for some reason.  Well, there was one topic that could have given us a show title BUT we removed that particular audio from the show.  Again, will explain in our next episode.  Anyway, having said all that, we still had fun and we still think you will enjoy the show.  At least we hope so???

Anyway, Todd was in town (Ottawa) doing his gig at the Comedy Club for 2 weeks and we managed to snag him on his last day in Ottawa.  He basically worked every night he was in town so it was very hard to schedule a night to record an episode with him.  We ended-up recording the show this past Sunday around midnight... probably the latest we ever started recording a show.  Big props for Todd as he headed over to the podcast studio right after his final night of working at the Comedy Club.

Todd has been on Talking Canadian twice before but never with all four regulars.  We managed to set-up a 5th mic so that no one would have to sit this one out.

It's always fun have Todd on the show... great guy, very funny, and has become a really good friend.

Todd hosts his very own podcast and has various comedians guesting on his show on a regular basis.  Check it out!

Hope you enjoy the show!?

p.s. If we sound a little tired... well... it's because we were.  ;-)

By the way, if we offended anyone with "Cankles", we apologize.  And we may have also offended some of you who are of Chinese descent... if so, sorry about that too.

Here's your TC assignment for next episode... please tweet us topics you'd like us to discuss.  The weirder the topics, the better.

Thanks and hope you enjoy the show!!??

Wow, 3 years!  And there I was a few weeks ago thinking of putting an end to this podcast.  Well, after hearing the impact TC has had on our very own Keith these past few years (you'll hear it too if you listen to the show), I think we'll have to keep doing this for at least another 3 years.

Anyway, we recorded the show on Wednesday but unfortunatley, I didn't get a chance to publish the show until today (2 days later).  I think it was a pretty good show... let me just say... Joe was "prepared".  We had a number of topics we wanted to touch on but it was just one of those nights where we had so much to flap about that we never actually covered any of the topics we had on our lists... except for maybe a few things Keith had on his list.

If you happen to have some champagne, maybe have a glass with us while you listen.

On a closing note, I want to thank listener S. Snafu who sent us a very nice 3 year anniversary present.  He put together a montage of TC moments and did a wonderful job.  You can hear his clip right at the end of the show after the outro music.

Enjoy.

It was a blast doing the show with Julien - he's a very funny man! We all laughed quite a bit; whether that's due to the comedy, the late hour, or a tad bit of alcohol, is anyone's guess.  Hopefully what was enjoyable to us will translate into entertainment for you!

We would like to thank Julien for volunteering his time to come to our studio and join us in our humble show... it was a pleasure meeting him.  This dude is really funny!!  Watch for him in comedy clubs across Canada - if he's in your town, go see him!  You won't regret it.

Hope you enjoy the show!!??

Even without Mo, we had ourselves a blast.  Of course, it usually takes a good 30 minutes or so for us to get into it... maybe that's how long it takes for the alcohol to kick-in?

For those of you who like Joe's Uncle jokes... well he's got one for you in this one.

Keith likes to cook, likes hip-hop and disco... and is not gay.  Goober... well he's an "all soul"!!

One final thing, Episode 70 will come to you 3 weeks from now and that's when we will be celebrating our 3 year anniversary (with some good Champagne I hope??).

Goober = All Soul 

Keith finally tells us his story about when he called his girlfriend by the wrong name.  He didn't want to tell the story as he felt it had been overhyped and didn't think it would be that interesting but we finally got it out of him... and he was right!!  Just kidding Keith.  Monica had to leave the studio in order for him to finally speak... I know weird, eh?  You sort of need to listen to understand what happened.  Although she did eventually come back to a nice cold wet spot!!

It was a bit of a late night for us... kids went to bed late so we started recording late but we still had fun.

Hope you enjoy the show... and remember, send us e-mails, we LOVE hearing from you!!!

Ben

We got tremendous support from our listeners... thank you for your e-mails and your kind words!!  We read many of them in this episode (which explains why the show is almost 2 hours long) but we didn't get to all of them.

Anyway, we had tons of fun recording this show... maybe we felt inspired by the great e-mails we received or maybe we were just in that kind of a mood.  I think this is our longest show yet and to be honest, we probably could have kept going for another hour!

Probably more hockey talk than some of you would like but we had to... with the Stanley Cup being awarded to Boston along with the Vancouver riots, how could we not spend some time talking about hockey??

Hope you enjoy the show!!

It kind of came to us while recording this episode that maybe, just maybe, TC has run it's course.  Or maybe we just need to change things up a little??  We're not sure. 

We'd like to hear from you, our loyal listeners. Has TC become stagnant? Do you think we should hang it up? Are you still enjoying our shows?  Do you want us to continue?  Email us and let us know your thoughts.

If we do end the show, we'll probably continue releasing episodes until August so we can reach our 3 year anniversary. 

Wow, typing this kind'a made me a little sad.  We've had good times and lots of laughs over the past few years doing this show.  Anyway, we'll see how it goes...

Also, not that many e-mails from you this week either?  What's up with that?  Send us e-mails... we LOVE hearing from you!  Plus it helps us fill the gaps during those off nights!

Did you know that Joe is a hero?  And that Monica has switched to Granny Panties?  Listen to find out why...

This was actually a fun show... was a little worried at first 'cause we started recording the show very late and all of us were exhausted.  Figured we would just do a short show so we could go to bed but we ended-up finding our second wind and well... we couldn't shut-up.

Lots of funny parts in this one.  But I`m warning you, Keith and I (Ben) do spend a considerable amount of time discussing our weekend in Toronto for UFC 129.  Some of you UFC fans out there may interested in what we had to say but if not, just bare with us `cause the rest of the show is all over the map and there are definitely some funny parts.

As always, hope you enjoy the show as much as we did recording it.

Keith recently celebrated his 50th birthday and shares some stories from his birthday bash.  Myself (Ben) and Monica discuss the recent trip we had to Utica, NY where our daughter had a dance competition. I said a few things about overweight kids that maybe I should've just kept to myself... oh well.

Talked about a bunch of other things but we did focus a considerable amount of time on Joe.... 'cause apparently, he is a thief! I don't think HE thinks he's a thief but... well... judge for yourself.

We finish off the show by reading some listener e-mails and that's about it.

Hope you enjoy the show.

So after a month of not doing a show, you can expect a little bit of rust, but Keith was there to provide stories from his trip to keep us entertained for most of the show.  Of course, we did flap about other stuff, which by the way, if you'll be attending a speak-a-thon anytime soon, you may want to hit Keith up for some advice... or at least listen to this show for some good pointers.

By the way, we got tons of e-mails from you which is great.  Well that's what happens when you don't do a show for so long, the e-mails pile-up!  Have I mentioned we love hearing from you?  'Cause you know we do!!

Anyway, we're back on schedule now.  Hope you enjoy the show...

Anyway, sitting-in for Monica this week was Rick (aka Russell) from Sens Underground.  We recorded this show right after Rick and I finished recording an episode of Sens Underground. So we started late, we were very tired... AND we had a blast!!!

Hope you enjoy it...

Now last night when we recorded Episode 60, it was one of those good nights.  We think this is one of our funnier ones... maybe not Episode 17 funny, but funny none-the-less.  Especially during the last half of the show.

So for all of you who have given TC a chance and have given us great reviews in iTunes... thank you!  We still have a 4 1/2 star rating and we appreciate it.  And if you're one of those loyal listeners that like our show and haven't posted a review in iTunes yet, please do.

Hope you enjoy the show... AND... please e-mail us your thoughts, opinions, topics or whatever.  We LOVE hearing from you!

We did record the show Tuesday night but unfortunatley, I never had a chance to publish the show until now.  What can I say... been busy.

Anyway, the holidays are over and things seem to be back to normal... at least it feels that way with Monica back on the show.

In this episode, we share some of our holiday stories, read some listener e-mails, and then pretty much discuss whatever topic Keith throws at us since he's really the only one who actually prepares for this show.

Happy New Year everyone... and hope you enjoy our first show of the year?

Anyway, Mike was there to fill her spot and he did a great job as usual.  We did what we usually do, talk about stuff, read some e-mails, talk about more stuff... and then we got really silly near the end of the show.  Why is it that you can't talk about nuts without mentioning the "other" kind of nuts... you know, the white salty ones??

Merry Christmas everyone!!!

Back by popular demand, our good friend Mike S. joins us once again for another episode of Talking Canadian.  Although Monica is feeling better, she is still coughing a lot and figured why not have Mike come back since he did such a fine job last time.

I have to say, this show was kind of interesting.  We started off pretty slow, not sure why??  Maybe it's because Keith was bringing up serious topics and we're all too dumb to converse intelligently!?  But at one point, Keith starts telling a story, which morphed into another story which then morphed into another story... well... let me just say, he spoke a lot.  And when Keith speaks a lot, that's when the laughs are generated.  His stories seemed to pep us up and the end result was a pretty funny last half of the show.

It was a real fun show for us... maybe it was the atmosphere in the new podcast studio?  Whatever it was, we had a blast recording the show with our friend Mike.  Let me put it this way, at times we struggle to find an appropriate show title but for this episode, we had tons to choose from.

So Doug aka "Goober" (Mo's brother) sat-in for her instead.  He's such a huge fan of TC and seeing that it was also his birthday, we let him be on the show.

We started recording the episode pretty late so we intentionally kept the show shorter than usual.  BUT... Alex Lesage created a "Best of TC" montage a few weeks ago which is about 30 minutes long and we added his clip at the end of the show (after the Outro music). Alex spent a lot of time putting that montage together so make sure you listen!!

No Monica laughing in this one to make things sound funnier than they really are, but still a good show. Thanks Goober for joining us on a very late work night (and on your birthday) to record episode 55.

On a side note, I noticed that the Odeo Flash player that I included on every show posting no longer comes up.  I guess Odeo is no longer providing that service??  Seeing that it's been down for a while and I haven't heard any complaints from anyone, I'm guessing not many of you listen to our shows right from the browser.

Starting next episode, I will start using the same flash player as the one I use on the Sens Underground site.

Anyway, back to Episode 54... it was a long day for us that day and we started recording pretty late so we were all bagged and maybe not as peppy as usual.  But there were some funny parts (I think?)... to be honest, all I remember is that Keith rates himself as a 7.  Why we find that funny?  I don't know... it just is.

BUT... we did one thing that we said we'd never do and that's edit anything we say on the show.  Well, last night we sort'a had to... we were having tons of fun, a couple of us mentioned a few things that could be considered inappropriate (even for us) so I had to chop off about 10 minutes of the show somewhere in the middle.  Not that I needed to mention this here 'cause you'd never know about the edit if didn't say anything (that's how good I am at editing).  But us having to edit ourselves for the first time is an indication of what type of show this was.  We spoke our minds, laughed a lot (especially Monica), and had a blast.

Oh and uh... Keith Rocks!!  Told a joke he wrote that had us all ROTFLOAF!!!

Well... like usually, we got together to you know... talk about "stuff" and somehow managed to fill a full hour and more. 

Keith was a bit more involved in this episide... you may have noticed he didn't speak to much in the previous show due exhaustion from working so many contracts.  But he was full of energy this week and when Keith has a lot to say, that's when we have the most fun.  In fact, the title of the show was inspired by Keith but you'll have to wait until the end of the show to see why.

Hope you enjoy the show!

In this episode, we discuss how our summer has been going... holidays, Canada Day, Father's Day, G20 thing, ... uh... Earthquake??? Keith and Monica talk about how the earthquake affected them.  Joe was camping and didn't feel a thing when it hit, I (Ben) loved it.

We read a lot of e-mails in this show (thanks for the great e-mails BTW).  Don't worry, Monica read most of them so it won't be too painful to listen to.

We should be back to our regular schedule now... at least I think so???  Whatever... it's not like anyone is complaining??

Regardless, hope you enjoy the show.

We spent a good chunk of the show defending ourselves in response to an e-mail sent to us by an angry listener who accused us of being homophobic and bigotted.  It seems we all had a rebuttle to her accusations but does it really matter?  Don't think she'll be listening to our show again?

A few other e-mails get read, a few other topics get discussed, and there you have it... Episode 47.

Maybe we weren't in tip-top shape in this episode but we still had fun and that's all the matters.  That's right, it doesn't matter if YOU have fun... as long as WE have fun!!!

Whatever...

All I know is that Keith never lies, doesn't swear, runs a lot, and was quite the athlete back in his high school days.  That should cover at least half the show... and half of every other show we've done in the past. ;-)

Does anyone actually ever read this?

Basically, Monica is back and we talk about stuff.

We read a few e-mails that were meant for this episode and a few left-over e-mails that we didn't get to in the last show.

Oh and by the way, our forums are officially gone as of now.  We gave it a shot but let's face it... it's just not that type of site.  Thanks to all of you who tried to make them work.

As you know, we like to do shows every second Tuesday but Joe couldn't make it 2 weeks ago so we delayed the show a week and then last Tuesday, I was knocked-out by a bad case of the 24hr flu!

But we did record a show last night.  Monica didn't join us but Todd Van Allen did.  That's right, the one and only Todd Van Allen (who just happens to be in Ottawa this week hosting several comedy shows) decided to drop by and record an episode with us once again.

Needless to say, a lot of laughs to go around when TVA is in the house.

We recorded the show late last night (waiting for Todd to arrive) and by the time I was done mixing down the audio file, it was almost 2:00 AM.  Hence why I'm publishing the show today.

We had tons of e-mails to read but I think we only got to three.  Kind'a hard to focus with Todd around!!

And like usual, we were all over the map in this one... from lobsters to childhood memories to goats to Tiger to lobsters again to polynomials to.... well... goats.  Hell I don't know - will have to listen to the show myself to be sure.

Anyway, we're back and hope you enjoy the show!?

Here are some of the topics we discussed in this show:

• Olympics and Paralympics 2010
• Canadian Women's Hockey Team contravercial victory celebrations
• Canadian Women's Coach and her attire during the games
• Crosby's Golden Goal
• Changing the Canadian National Anthem
• Marital Advice (in response to a listener e-mail)
• Sports Athletes as Role Models for our kids
• Pooping in public washrooms
• Stuff...
• And some other stuff...

Many great e-mails for this show - thank you.

It was very expensive to get this show published so... well... hope you enjoy it!!

AND THEN... I lost it all!  That's right... all that work for nothing!

It was late, I was tired... and I made a huge boo boo; lost the whole show!  I still feel sick to my stomach!

We will try to get together and record another show later this week and in that show, I will explain in more detail exactly what happened.  One thing for sure, I will never make that same mistake again.

The whole world recently tuned in to watch/listen to Tiger's speech... I had no idea how upset Monica was over his press conference (if you wanna call it that) but none-the-less, we all had a lot to say about that.

We also spent a good chunk of time discussing the Olympics... I mean how could you not!?  So many great stories (and some not so great), we just had to.

And near the end, we read an e-mail from a listener who had a comment about our previous episode where we touched on religion.  That sparked the religion debate once again and pretty much ended the show on that note.

We had lots of fun recording this one... the topics were interesting and we were all just in a great mood (that usually helps).

Oh yeah... and Keith runs really fast!

In this show, we talk a little bit about Brendan Burke's tragic death, the Superbowl, Apple's new iPad and the Olympics.  Lots of concern about the Olympics since it all starts this weekend and uh... there's no snow!!!  We also wonder who will be the Canadian who lights the Olympic flame to begin the games.

Later in the show, we discuss religion and our beliefs although Monica stayed rather quiet during that discussion... I think she felt outnumbered and wasn't in the mood to engage in a religious debate.

A quick reminder, our get-together is this Saturday (Feb. 13th) at the Corner Bar & Grill on Bank Street.  Both the Sens Underground and Talking Canadian crew will be there along with a number of listeners.  So if you live in Ottawa or happen to be in town this weekend, come join us (777 Bank Street). We will be there around 6:00 PM so come early if you can, we expect a packed house.

There's not as much laughing in this episode (not because of Rick), it's just different without Monica's laughter livening-up the show.  But we still had a blast and Rick did an awesome job!  Was hoping for more cheesy jokes from him but oh well…

If some of you would like to meet both the Talking Canadian and Sens Underground crew, we're having a big get together on February 13th at the Corner Bar & Grill down in the glebe (777 Bank St. to be exact).  There will be a lot of listeners of both podcasts showing-up so come have some Beau's beer with us, meet the gang and some of the loyal listeners, watch the Sens game and have a blast.

Hope to see you there!

All I will say is Joe is back and as usual... we had a blast!!  Oh and Monica didn't get drunk this time.

The show was recorded on New Year's Day (at night) but unfortunately didn't get a chance to publish it until very late on the 2nd... actually started feeling pretty sick before the show (pulled-it off though) and went straight to bed after the recording.  Todd was very funny and we all had a blast recording this episode... I wanted to hurry up and publish it as soon as possible but yeah... I was pretty sick.

This episode is almost 2 hrs long and it probably would have been even longer if I was feeling a bit better. But basically this show was about 2 guys and 1 girl talking to a comedian, drinking beer and having a blast!

I think you'll will really enjoy this one!! 

Our next TC recording will be on January 12th and we will resume our "every 2nd Tuesday" recording schedule.

Bye for now.

Anyway, this is our last show for 2009... we will be taking a little break during the Christmas holidays but if all goes well, we'll be starting-up once again on January 2nd.

One thing I know we talked about is the Tiger situation.  Of course we had to talk about it... I mean... who isn't talking about it.  And I think from that point on, we read some listener e-mails and basically discussed the suggested topics.  It was enough to fill a one hour show.

We were all in a good mood tonight... although Monica wasn't feeling that great (still in a good mood though).  We did have a blast recording the show like we always do and really hope you guys enjoy it.

That said, we at TC would like to wish all you loyal listeners (and new listeners) a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

Enjoy the holidays and take care!

Ben

Anyway, managed to get it done this morning but didn't get a chance to publish the show (until now) since I needed to get ready for my trip to Toronto.  Actually writing this from the train right now.

So about the show, we had a blast once again.  I usually don't remember what we talked about when I write the show notes right after recording the show... well now I'm writing them the day after so it's even worse.  I know we talked about the Tiger incident... who hasn't been these days.  Keith's diet is over... FINALLY!!!  I know we talked a little about hockey and the Grey Cup.  Of course, we read your e-mails... and to be honest, I really don't remember the rest.  In fact, I'm looking forward to listen to the show myself 'cause I know there were several very funny parts.

Hope you enjoy the show... I know I will! ;-)

Mixed down the show and was going to release it but had some technical issues AGAIN!!  Wasn't able to create an mp3 without the software crashing on me.  Tried on 2 different computers with no luck.

Will figure something out in the morning and will try to publish the episode before noon sometime.  If you don't see the show up anytime on Wednesday, it will have to wait until I get back from Toronto Thursday night.

Sorry for the delay.

It's past 1:10 am as I'm typing this and I have a busy day at work tomorrow so I'm keeping it short.  If you want to know what we talked about, you'll just have to listen.  I'll have to listen too since I don't really remember.  Something about Man Whores and Beer Stoppers????

Good night everyone.

Anyway, we did manage to put a full show together... it's just a little shorter than our typical 1:30 shows.

Monica did not join us tonight - had been suffering from a bad headache all day so she decided to go to bed instead.  Meanwhile, we tried our best to put a good show together but it's just not the same without Monica's laughter.  Seriously, her laugh gets us going... and well... none of that tonight.

Plus, I was distracted all night monitoring my computer so I could stop & start the recording every time I noticed things getting a little sluggish. 

We talked about the H1N1 (of course), flu shots, Halloween, pranks, bad jobs from the past, and a bunch of other things that are just not coming to me right now (it's late).

We of course read listener e-mails and even sang a few too.  We were inspired by Keith breaking into song at the start of the show.  Kind of ruined some of your well thought-out e-mails by trying to sing them but hey... at least WE had fun!!

Hopefully, things will get back to normal for our next show with Monica back in studio and with my computer issues resolved!? 

Like we promised, we had Sophie on the show this week.  We put her on the spot and had her do the intro for the show.  She was great!

Doing the show on the same night the Sens beat the Leafs, we had no choice but to talk hockey... had to change topic when Monica started to nod-off.  We did talk about other stuff but all I remember is the hockey talk.  Oh wait... I think we did talk about this place called Paradise???  Actually, some interesting topics did come up... thank God a few us were prepared (Monica).

A big THANK YOU to Sophie for being on the show.  It was so much fun having both Alex and Sophie be phone guests that we want to keep doing this.  So if any of you would like to be on the show, send us an e-mail.

Enjoy the show...

Also in this episode, we call up one of our long time loyal listeners Alex Lesage and chat with him for a bit.  That was actually a lot of fun and we plan on doing something like this again for the next episode… get ready Sophie.

Of course, we read some e-mails and also discussed some topics that we brought-up in said e-mails.  We talked about Ben's sleep test… and oh yeah… a bird shat on Monica's head last week.

You'll probably notice a change in the sound quality in this episode.  We've upgraded our microphones to supposedly much better ones although after listening to the audio after the file was mixed down, I think there's some more tweaking that needs to be done.

Anyway, we had a blast recording this show… hope you enjoy it.

The rest of us did our best to move on without Mo and bring you yet another show about... you know... stuff!

In this episode, we talked about:

• Keith's recent weight loss
• cleaning ladies
• Joe's canoe and kayak tipping incidents
• embarrassing high-school moments
• the various stressful stages in life
• Heatley
• the Gary Bettman vs Jim Balsillie mess

... and of course, we read your e-mails.

My daughter Lauren is getting a tonsillectomy on Tuesday so Monica and myself would rather wait a few days before recording a show.

If all goes well with Lauren (and I'm sure it will), we'll probably be recording episode 28 either this coming Wednesday or Thursday night.

Thanks.

We really need to start taking notes during our recordings 'cause when it comes time for the write-up, none of us remember what the hell we talked about.

Let me see... I think we brought up the Heatley thing, talked about pranks, the tornado in Southern Ontario, S&M or BDSM, Keith's speeding ticket, and... uh.... sorry, just don't remember. Forgive me, it's late!!!

I do know we read a lot of e-mails. To all of you who have e-mailed the show, thank you. We really do appreciate your e-mails so please keep them coming. If you haven't e-mailed the show yet and you're a regular listener... let's hear from you.

None of us really remember what we talked about even though we just finished recording the show moments ago... but we do know we laughed a lot and had a blast. Hopefully, you'll enjoy the show as much as we did recording it...

Thanks for listening.

We visited the East coast of Nfld, specifically, Centreville/Wareham area in Bonavista Bay. The scenery was beautiful and the trip was fantastic.

Weather was great, 25 – 27 (before a shot at Nfld weather), yes, that was in Celsius.

Weather can impact a holiday big time so we made the most of it by spending two days hanging out on beautiful beaches (the air was warm but trust me the water was cold, now I know why I swim like a rock) and one day crusing on a long liner, fishing and touring the outlying Islands.

I must say, there were lots and lots of Cod out there in the ocean. Seals haven’t got them all yet.

We stayed in 5 cottages close to a Salmon River and only 10 minutes from town, which meant there were family and friends dropping by all day/night long.

A summer trip to Newfoundland should be on your bucket list.

Anyway please have a look at the pictures that have been posted in the new Pictures page on our site... some guy wearing a Talking Canadian shirt just kept popping up in the pictures, just like that friendly squirrel out West.

I was then supposed to publish the show early the following morning but Monica woke-up feeling sick and was actually quite sick for most of the day so between taking care of the kids all day and trying to stay awake, I finally got around to publishing the show late Sunday night.

Now, about Episode 26... Monica joins the crew once again after being absent for the previous two shows.  And it was only fitting for everyone to be back together in order to celebrate the One Year Anniversary of Talking Canadian!!  Keith brought a very "small" bottle of "cheap" champagne to celebrate and that we did!  Thank God we had a beer fridge stacked with cold ones to help us out...

As for the show itself, Keith finally shares his story about his first ever visit to Montreal. He didn't shed a tear like he thought he might... but then again, how can you when you're having so much fun!!

We decide to play a little drinking game for this episode... every time Monica swears, or Ben says "you know", or Joe brings-up minor hockey, or Keith starts a thought with "You know something?", we have to take a drink.  That was kind of fun actually.  But really, the show is like all of our other shows... we read e-mails, we drink, we talk about stuff... and that's it.  And like every other show, we had a great time recording it... hope you enjoy it.

The Pond's dimensions are 11' x 20' with a depth of 8 inches in the shallow end and 30 inches in the deep end. Water is piped from pond up to basinand returned via 20 foot babbling stream.

It took 5 weeks to remove the old pond and create the new pond. Thisconstant pounding of 35 tons of rockand gravel being dumped in front ofthe house and subsequent transportation of this rock via Dingo fromfront to back drove the neighbours nuts.

There are about 30 fish in the Pond. Of course, the fish populate, soeach spring I have to give away about 30 fish to other pond enthusiasts (and before you ask, no I don't BBQ them).

The Koi (about 20 inches long each) and goldfish stay in the pond allwinter and will not be fed from November though April. I asked my wife toknit them little sweaters but she thought I was nuts. I actually givethen a little food on Christmas day.

Note: a de-icer keeps the deep end from freezing over and an aeratorsupplies oxygen and removes the methane gasses).

There's a 10 year age difference between my wife and I and like I keep tellingpeople, "we are now virtually the same age. That's because I will havereduced my age by 5 years by relaxing by the pond with my glass of wineor cup of tea and my wife will have aged 5 years because we spent somuch money on the creation of the Pond".It's all good, hope you enjoy the pictures. Of course, the picturesdon't give the Pond it's fair justice.

One thing for sure, we had one hell of a good time recording this show. There was a lot of drinking during the show but there was also a lot of drinking before the show. Joe was talking more, Keith was feistier and Brad... well was Brad.

We start off by discussing the whole Brandon Blank thing... not sure I like how this whole thing played-out but you'll need to listen to get the whole story on that.

As for the stuff we discussed on this show... who knows!!?? All I know is we did talk about Seals at some point which is the only reason it was chosen as the title for the show. There was no keeping track of topics discussed in this episode... again, the drinking (before and during the show).

Anyway, we had a lot of fun messing with Brad. He didn't want to show it but he did look a little nervous at the start... he was a good sport and we look forward to having him on the show again sometime in the near future.

A bit of a different show this week... Monica had to sit-out with a bad migraine but did make a quick appearance to apologize to one of our listeners who was a little bit offended by a few remarks she made in the previous show. Sitting-in for Monica was Doug (also known as Goober in our forums). All you regular listeners probably already know that Goober is Monica's brother.

We didn't have too many topics for this show... which is strange since this is our longest show to date!? We discussed the Michael Jackson situation once again, basically to address an e-mail from a listener who wasn't too pleased with the some of the comments Monica made in the previous show.

We also finally announced the winnerS of our little rant contest. Let me put it this way, 8 of you will be receiving a Talking Canadian shirt. You'll have to listen to see if your name is on the list.

We had TONS of e-mails (which is great) and we read many of them but not all. Some of the things we talked about were topics suggested by e-mailers but really, we were just all over the map like usual. One thing we did learn in this show is to never look at a Frenchman's girlfriend. Keith explains why.

Hope you enjoy the show!

Anyway, in this show... we spend a lot of time reading e-mails. Most of the e-mails we read were rants submitted for the contest and some of them were pretty long so let me apologize ahead of time... not because of the e-mails but because of the way we read them *cough* JOE *cough*.

Although, Goober decided to record his rant and e-mail us the audio file so you can actually hear his rant. Not bad Goober... but you're not gonna win... especially since you're rant is ABOUT US!!!!!

Between e-mails and rants, we do manage to bring-up a few other topics such as the Heatley situation here in Ottawa, Michael Jackson's death, how I (Ben) almost drowned in the shower, other stuff, more stuff, and some more stuff (again, don't really remember).

Happy Canada Day!!!!

Some of us have plans for Canada Day so it'll just be easier to do the show Thursday night instead.

This extends our Rant competition by a couple of days.  If you haven't sent it in a Rant yes, please do so before Thursday.  We received a handful of them already and so far, they're all pretty good... but we would like some more.  So start RANTING AWAY!!!

Thanks.

So here are some of the things we talked about in this show (not necessarily in this order):

• the Brown Bag Golf Tournament and how things got a little sour after the golfing was over.
• the Stanley Cup has finally been awarded and we share our opinion on the whole Crosby snubbing the Wings crap.
• the Heatley and Malakar situation here in Ottawa.
• Ballsille's bid to by the Coyotes is rejected... the dude will never own a team in the NHL!
• Chastity Bono's becoming a man!?!?
• Sex changes - are you still gay if you've had a sex change?
• Newfie Nanaimo Bars
• Why cars were invented... explained so eloquently by Keith.
• Monica believes she caught the swine flu!
• Buying plastics bags at the grocery store.

... and of course, a whole bunch of other things we forgot to jot down.

Some of us were a little tired... some even still sick... but we still had a blast recording the show (like usual) so hope you enjoy it.

We were inspired by some of the rants posted in our forums so we decided that the contest should be about rants.  Send us a rant (by e-mail - don't post it) about anything you want... we just want it to be well written and funny.  We will then pick pick the best one and announce the winner in episode 23 (June 30th).  Keith got a few extra Talking Canadian shirts so we may have more than one winner and we may even let you decide who else should win a TC shirt... but we will for sure pick one winner on June 30th.

As for Episode 21, all I have to say is that it's pretty much a blur.  In all of the episodes we've recorded to date, this is the one where we all laughed the hardest!  Well except maybe for Monica... she didn't have to leave the room this time like she did in the last show.  I don't even remember what the hell we talked about... all I know is that Keith did the intro to the show and then we flapped about a whole bunch of crap, read tons of e-mails, laughed our assess off and then Keith did the outro as well (which was unexpected by the way) and that's it.

Hope you enjoy it!!??

We discuss the "contest for a contest" contest we're going to have.  Keith started this thing now we have to go through with it.  While Keith is out there getting Talking Canadian t-shirts printed, the first part of this contest for a contest thing has already begun.  Send us suggestions for a contest we can have where the winner of that contest will win a Talking Canadian t-shirt and whatever contest we end-up having, the person who suggested that contest... well... will win a... Talking Canadian t-shirt.

Here are some of the topics we discuss in the episode (not necessarily in that order):

- Fighting in Hockey
- Hulk Hogan's comments about his ex-wife
- OJ
- Billy Bob's embarrasing interview
- How Monica almost burnt her house down
- The CanJet airplane that was hijacked in Jamaica
- Jamaican accents... and the inability for Ben to do any accents what-so-ever (except for Italian accents)
- Booing national anthems *cough* Habs fans *cough*
- The potential video podcast or live streaming of Talking Canadian
- The trick Joe once played on the poor old people at a Bingo hall in Sudbury 

... and some other stuff.

It's no Episode 17, but hope you enjoy it none-the-less.

Ben decided to sport a pornstache for this episode... Monica will deny it but she loves the stache!

In this episode, we talk about a whole bunch of crap. That's right... crap. You see, we drink all this beer, record a show, then everyone takes off and I have to remember what the hell we talked about so I can write the show notes. Of course, no one jots down what we discussed so I basically have to go based on memory.

So let me see... we talk about Facebook and how we hate it. We also talk about Gay people (we don't hate gay people we just talk about gay people). Actually, a lot of gay talk in this episode! Bluetooth DVDs??? Keith, do you know what Bluetooth is?

We talk about embarrassing high-school moments and Joe goes on about the issue teenage boys had to deal with the most in high-school? You know, sporting a boner at the most awkward times?

We bring up the topic of past injuries and accidents (again).

Keith wants us to have a contest to come up with a contest so we can give away a prize for the contest winner?? Ya follow?

And of course, we end the show with... DUMB-ASSES!!!

Hope you enjoy this one as much as we did recording it!

I spent the weekend in Kingston Ontario with my son's Novice B hockey team.  We tied 2 and got blown out 8-1, so we didn't advance.  That team was a bit strong for the pool but that often happens when smaller associations don't have enough players to make an 'A' team.  We had fun and the kids got to play a game at the new K ROCK centre where the OHL JR 'A' Frontenacs play.  Very nice rink, I think it is only about 1 year old.  We also played at Invista Centre which is a new 4 pad facility as well.  Great to see and play in fantastic arena's.  The biggest treat for the kids was to go to Hardy Har Har - a little joke shop, they all bought stink bombs and stuff like that.  I was able to make my own!

Unfortunately, I didn't record the best parts of the evening... to be honest, I had forgotten that I could record on my phone plus I was busy having a good time.  None-the-less, it gives you an idea of what we were talking about on the show.

1st week we hung out near Venice Beach, 1 hour south of Tampa Bay.

Got up in the morning did a roller blade before first coffee, had breakfast and headed out to the beach with a bag of spirits and some water for the kiddies.

Venice beach is quite an exciting place to hang out. All around the beautiful sandy beach there are dolphins, pelicans and crystal clear water (albeit a little too cold for my liking). In the afternoons, you look around and see happy people sipping on brewskes and vino. Every Saturday night there's a party where lots of hippie looking, people, belly dance and beat hundreds of drums during the sunset and once again drinking their favorite spirits and enjoying Mary Jane. Hundreds of people from the old to the young enjoying the serenity.

2nd week we hit the Florida Keys near Key Largo ( Islamorada actually ) just north of Key West.

Beautiful sunny weather every day. We had a private beach house with a 100 foot pier. We catch spiny lobsters and snorkel for 1st two days until we spot Sting Rays, Barracudas, man'o'wars and sharks, yes sharks ( all in less than 6 feet of water ). That was it for snorkelling for us especially me because I panic when my face is underwater and trying to breath through a snorkel plus I swim like a rock.

Went to a movie and they served us a glass of wine. Gotta the love the good ole U S of A. Freedom plus ! I'll be back, Florida.

My next major trip will be to good old Newfoundland in August, 2009.

Keith

Regardless, we did manage to flap for a little over an hour about... you guessed it... stuff!

Joe's making beef jerky these days... sounds gross but it's actually quite tasty.  Keith is back from his holiday in Florida and shares a few stories with us.  Monica joins us again this week to read e-mails, swear and laugh at Joe's jokes.  And Ben brings nothing to the table... like usual!

Other than that, we discuss the amazing run the Sens have been on, Ovechkin's hot stick incident, Natasha Richardson's tragic death at Mont. Tremblant, stories about broken bones and scars from our childhood (Joe's story is just sick). All that mixed-in with a few e-mails and that's it.

If you're a regular listener of the show, please join us in our forums.  It's a great way to get the TC community together and plus, it may give us ideas of "stuff" to talk about on future episodes.

Talking Canadian is really more about the Podcast.  And one of the things that has changed which will affect all our listeners is the podcast feed.  We now have a new RSS feed and the old one redirects all current subscriptions to the new feed.  For all our existing subscribers, whatever client you're using to subscribe to our feed should automatically switch over to the new feed.  What will most likely happen is that the feed will display all episodes (that you may or may not have downloaded yet) twice.  Just delete the ones that don't display the title beside the podcast name.  For example:  Delete Episode 15, Keep Episode: 15 Chocken' the Chicken.

If you're having problems with the new feed, send us an e-mail and we'll be happy to help out. Us being Ben... since both Joe and Keith have no idea what's going on here!

Feel free to leave any comments about the new site... we always appreciate feedback (positive or not).

Thank you.

We spend a large part of the show discussing the AMAZING tickets we were given for the Sens - Oilers game last Thursday.  Didn’t discuss the game, just the experience we had and how Joe single handily managed to get 3 entire sections of people to hate him by the end of the night.

Ben & Monica talk about their addiction to Guitar Hero.  We also do a lot of chatting about dreams (weird dreams, reoccurring dreams, hag dreams, wet dreams, dreams in colour, etc.).  We read a lot of e-mails... received TONS of e-mails this week - thank you and keep them coming!

We talk about Cock Fighting... not much but we do.  Somehow, this topic leads or to pee swords, pee fights, and peeing in a pitcher of beer.  Don’t ask.

And finally, we end the show with... dumbasses!

One thing to note, our web site will be changing by the time we release our next episode.  The web address will remain the same but our feed will change.  Your subscription to the show will (should) automatically be redirected to the new feed location but you may notice duplicate shows available for download.  Either simply delete the duplicates from iTunes or better yet, unsubscribe and then re-subscribe.  If you have any issues with the new feed, please e-mail Ben.

For some strange reason, we had tons of e-mails after last week’s show... we read most of the e-mails and touched on a number of topics.  We played a song sent to us by a good listener that was in reference to Keith’s story about drowning kittens when he was younger.  The song is titled Kittens in a Bag and was very appropriate based on what Keith shared with us 2 weeks ago.

We briefly talked about Obama’s visit to Ottawa, Ben’s son kicking him in the balls and then wanting to go down on him to kiss “it” better, Joe throws in a few jokes here and there, Sundin in Toronto and how he was received in his first game in Toronto since leaving the Leafs, Keith’s humane way of handle mice, and a whole bunch of other stuff.  Tune in and find out for yourself... and thanks for listening!

We start off the show by reading a few e-mails and of course commenting on them.  Then we discuss a wide a range of things... from Canadian Geese in the states, to Keith drowning kittens when he was a kid, to lying to our kids (you know... Tooth Fairy, Santa Clause), to Michael Phelps’ pot smoking incident, to A-Rod’s steroid use admission... and whole bunch of other stuff.  Man, I should really write down what we talk about during the show.

Anyway, we got a mixed response about the humming thing... some people think the humming thing should be over and done with, yet some people told us they really enjoy our humming to close the shows and want us to continue.  We still don’t know what we’ll do in future episodes but we decided to give it another try in this one... figured it would be fun with Monica joining us.

We read a couple of listener e-mails, talked about the NHL All Star game, and a little bit about American politics and what Obama’s first major moves should be.

We also touched on the OC Transport strike that is STILL on-going here in Ottawa and the impact it’s having on the city.

Eugene Melnyk is bidding for an MLS franchise for the city of Ottawa... we share our opinion on that whole situation.

Ben explains why his wife may be hosting the show from now on... at least for the next episode.

Keith brings up the story about the dude who fled the tanning salon (naked) because he smelled something burning or something like that?  Who the hell knows???

Ben talks about how he recently switched to different happy pills... the other ones were wearing off a little.

AND... we put an end to our humming.  That’s right... this episode marks the last time you’ll hear us humming 80’s tunes.  We figured it was time to put that to an end... although, this was probably the most fun we’ve ever had doing the humming thing.

Oh well... hope you enjoy the show as much as we enjoyed recording it.

Since we started doing the show, some of you complained that we talk too much hockey on this show... well, if you’re one of those guys, you may not like this episode.  But how can we not talk about hockey when Canada won gold in the World Juniors... that just happened to be hosted right here in Ottawa!!

So of course, we talk about the World Juniors, a little bit about the Sens (who SUCK!), the Ruutu biting incident, Sundin in Vancouver, and uh... ball hockey!  Apparently, it’s not cool playing ball hockey in jeans!

Ben talks about the new Happy Pills he’s been taking... and no, not Viagra!

Never understood why some people spit... I guess you have your spitters and well, you’re non-spitters.  Turns out, Joe is a spitter.

Ben just bought Guitar Hero for the Wii and shares his experience with everyone.

Oh... and Keith FINALLY figured out how to turn off traction control on his vehicle... apparently, there’s a switch.

In this episode, we’re all over the place... but what else is new, right?  We discuss the great weather we’re having here in Ottawa and the fun we’ve been having driving in the snow with our trucks (except Keith).  We also discuss what’s been going on with the Canadian government.  Not that we know much about politics but we do share our opinion about Stephane Dion and his coalition government.

We play Sean Avery’s “sloppy seconds” clip and share our opinions about that dumbass!!  Then we move on to OJ, Boxing, UFC, Bills vs Dolphins in Toronto, the OC Transpo strike... and a bunch of other stuff.

Keith talks about his trip to New York as well as the Neil Young concert he attended here in Ottawa.  Then Joe goes off on Wild Turkeys... by the way, in case you didn’t know, yes Turkeys can fly.

And of course, we end the show with our humming of 80s tunes... we all sucked this week.

Let’s see... Ben mentions the couple he saw having sex in the parking lot where he works.  We talk about O’Byrne scoring a goal in his own net (which will be on blooper reels for a long time to come) that allowed the NY Islanders to tie the game and eventually beat the Montreal Canadiens in a shootout.  If you haven’t seen the goal, search for it on YouTube... its pretty funny.

Keith tells us about his trip back to his hometown in Newfoundland.  Prince is now a Jehovah’s Witness??? That dude is strange!  The bass player for Platinum Blonde is dead.

We also talk about Ottawa’s Wine & Food thingy that happens every year and our friend Brad who likes to get naked when he drinks.

All that and more...

In this episode, we hear from a listener who needs advice on how to convert his “leafer” girlfriend into an Oilers fan.  We discuss Ben’s birthday weekend and his dealings with the cops after the burglar alarm went off while working late at the office (on his birthday).

We briefly talk about Barack Obama and how we think he’s the best thing that could happen to the States considering the current state of the American economy.

Keith brings-up the World Series of Poker... like anyone really cares, right?  Well apparently a lot of people do... I still don’t get it??

Of course, being the Sens fans that we are, we discuss how bad the Sens are sucking especially since we started recording this show right after watching our team get their asses kicked by the Habs 4-0.

Keith brings up something that happened to him earlier today which led us to... well... the title of this episode - Check’n-out Men.  No, we’re not gay... you’ll have to listen to understand. 

Oh... and uh... Joe’s Uncle took a Homo test.  Yes, you read correctly.

All that and more... hope you enjoy it.

We chatted about the following (and not necessarily in this order):

The great weather we’ve been having here in Ottawa, trucks and 4 x 4’s, the government’s decision to cut down on major IT projects in the Nation’s Capital, Ben’s upcoming gig at the Hard Rock Cafe this Thursday, the new HNIC theme song, flu shots, how Joe recently got in touch with a long lost cousin in the Ukraine, and the animal activists that apparently have issues with the man who killed a bear with a stick to save his own life.

We also read and provide our opinion to a couple of comments from our listeners... places to visit in Canada and whether or not to trim those hairs gone wild on ears, noses,  and eyebrows.

And of course we end the show with our regular hum that tune from the 80’s thing we do.

We had a blast recording this one... hope you enjoy it!?

In this episode, we discuss the negative (and positive) reviews we received in iTunes for this podcast.  We touch a little on the whole election thing since it was voting day on the day we recorded this show.  We read an e-mail from Will and answer his questions regarding Captain Roberto Luongo and Bishops’ University.

Keith brings up the story about the man who killed a bear with a stick out in BC and that leads us into talking about the UFC - Kimbo Slice in particular.

No Formula One in Montreal this year???  WTF???

We also discuss the unfortunate death of young Alexei Cherepanov in the Russian KHL.

Ben shows-off the Sens Underground ads that are currently running on Team 1200.  We chat about our Thanksgiving weekend and somehow, moth balls become a part of the conversation.

And of course, we end the show with the “guess what 80’s song I’m humming?” thing we now do to end all our shows.

Joe takes out his best East Indian accent to express some his frustrations he’s been having with Sympatico’s technical help staff... somewhere out in India.

We read a nice e-mail from a listener out in Edmonton... she had kind words for our show, better than some of the reviews we’ve been getting in iTunes.  By the way, if you like our show... maybe you can post some nice comments in iTunes! ;-)

With the NHL season about to start (we’re excited), we talk a little hockey... of course.  Joe and Ben share a few stories about their mothers... Ben’s story inspired the title for this episode.

Joe explains how Ben’s hair caught on fire on that New Year’s Eve party over a decade ago.  He brought it up last episode but never explained exactly what happened.

And we’ve introduced something new to end each show from now on... each one of us has to hum a tune from the 80’s and the others have to figure out which one it is.  I don’t know why but we think it’s funny.  Maybe it’s because we suck at it??

In this episode, we talk a little NFL and Ben share’s his opinion on why the NFL is so successful in the U.S. and explains the real reason behind why the NHL isn’t.  We discuss Eugene Melnyk’s bid for an MSL Soccer franchise here in Ottawa.  We read some e-mails that sparks a conversation about the Canadian economy, American economy, and... haircuts???

Joe finally shares his “plumbing incident” although we admit the story didn’t seem as funny the second time around. For whatever reason, we started sharing “CRAP” stories after listening to Joe’s plumbing incident.  Come on... who doesn’t like a good crap story... everyone has one!

Apparently, there’s some chick who’s auctioning off her virginity and some dude bid $250,000 for a crack at her cherry????  Well this story lead us to a topic that inspired the title of this show... CONSENT!

We give our opinion on the new Seinfeld & Gates commercials and then call it a night.

We had a blast recording this show and hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed recording it.

We also read a few e-mails sent in from out listeners .  A couple of them address the “N” word topic from our previous episode.  One of the e-mails sparks a RANT about the Leafs and their fans.  But of course, the topic of hockey comes up with training camp about to start in a coupe of weeks.

This episode is pretty different than our first one and more along the lines of what we had in mind for this show.  We had a lot of fun in this one and hopefully, you’ll enjoy is as much as we did!!??

We don’t only talk sports in this one. Reality TV becomes a topic... apparently Keith has never watched a reality show before (whatever). And we end the show trying to speak with accents. I don’t know... you’ll have to listen to find out what the hell that was all about.
