Grand Prank Revenge w/ Taz Van Rassel

Mark and Ryan welcome back Taz Van Rassel (The Sunday Service), the first member of the Three Timer Club! He talks about the town of Prince George, BC where he used to visit his grandparents. He talks about Mr PG - the famous log statue. Then the conversation quickly turns to pranks of all scales - from a garbage juice prank to the infamous Boner Satan Statue of Vancouver. In our town he builds a credit union, a very suggestive sculpture, and we follow a very elaborate prank that plays out for years in our town.

The Arena w/ Abdul Aziz

Podcaster and comedian Abdul Aziz (Spout Lore) drops by to tell us about growing up in The United Arab Emirates and Dundas, Ontario. He talks about his school in the UAE having an airplane hangar and about how his high school in Dundas was turned into a cemetery. He gives a full Power Point presentation on his high school in Dundas, so you’ll want to watch this one on video. He builds a hockey arena in our town and it is named after a haunted character by the name of PT FRIGHTDREAM. Our town also gets a cemetery in honor of Abdul’s high school.
