Thank you so much for joining me

The beautiful and ugly and today

27
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:23,200
we're only going to talk about 
the beautiful in the positive. 

28
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:25,700
Yay! 
Thank you for a nice. 

29
00:01:25,900 --> 00:01:30,100
Yeah. 
So you grew up in Langley, but 

30
00:01:30,100 --> 00:01:33,200
you spent a lot of time in 
Vancouver like what were some of

31
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,200
the things when you were like a 
young kid like that you looked 

32
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:39,600
for to, in coming into the city?
Yeah, so one of the first 

33
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:46,900
memories I have was Expo, 86 
because I was a big deal and we 

34
00:01:46,900 --> 00:01:51,100
called it like the Expo Ball but
which is never Science World. 

35
00:01:51,500 --> 00:01:54,100
But it's pretty big shiny 
object, right? 

36
00:01:54,100 --> 00:02:01,000
So and when you would come down 
first, Yeah, First Avenue like 

37
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,600
came down the hill and you 
approached me and in terminal 

38
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,000
and you saw this giant shiny 
object. 

39
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:12,100
So that was really exciting for 
me as a kid and like my dad had 

40
00:02:12,100 --> 00:02:18,400
this Toyota 4x4 from the 1980s. 
It was bright red, and it had a 

41
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:20,400
white orange and yellow stripe 
on it. 

42
00:02:20,700 --> 00:02:22,600
And of course there's only two 
seats in the front. 

43
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:26,100
So all the kids piled up in the 
back, the cousins, everything we

44
00:02:26,100 --> 00:02:29,700
piled up in the back and you 
know, Had seatbelts, I think, I 

45
00:02:29,700 --> 00:02:32,200
don't know but it wasn't like 
anything back in the eighties, 

46
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:33,800
but I just remember being so 
fun. 

47
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:38,300
Like we're going to the big city
and actually V6 was awesome. 

48
00:02:38,500 --> 00:02:40,900
And I remember my dad saying, 
like there was nothing here 

49
00:02:40,900 --> 00:02:44,100
before there was nothing. 
It was all industrial area. 

50
00:02:44,100 --> 00:02:49,500
So it was actually, it was all 
like, would Mills. 

51
00:02:49,500 --> 00:02:52,200
It was machine shot because back
in the day, Vancouver was a 

52
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:56,000
logging town and that's where 
all the wood, the wood Mills and

53
00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:02,100
the lumber where the There was 
no real Seawall at the time 

54
00:03:02,300 --> 00:03:06,400
there was no Olympic Village. 
No, it was an apartment like 

55
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:08,500
there was literally just like 
roads. 

56
00:03:08,500 --> 00:03:13,000
And then put this big exhibition
that you've got like a passport.

57
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:16,200
And so, you can walk around and 
get stamps from all the 

58
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:21,200
different exhibits that Kris. 
And I remember a billions, right

59
00:03:21,300 --> 00:03:25,500
Pavilions and I think my 
favorite place in Egypt. 

60
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:29,000
I remember Egypt because they 
had S. 

61
00:03:29,100 --> 00:03:33,600
Yes, so I just, I did really 
stands out in my mind about 

62
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:34,900
that, and that was, it was 
really cool. 

63
00:03:34,900 --> 00:03:38,700
And my parents weren't always 
like, it was a fart. 

64
00:03:38,700 --> 00:03:41,400
Like, that was a commitment to 
come to Vancouver. 

65
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:43,200
So, right. 
It was fun. 

66
00:03:43,500 --> 00:03:47,100
And it was positive, and it 
actually, you know, they were 

67
00:03:47,100 --> 00:03:51,000
paycheck-to-paycheck, 
middle-income family that we 

68
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,800
were and B were even on the 
lower scale. 

69
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:57,000
But, you know, I remember being 
affordable for them to come 

70
00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,900
like, it was important was in a 
It was affordable and we were 

71
00:03:59,908 --> 00:04:02,800
able to do it. 
And I just remember that was one

72
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,900
of my very first positive 
experiences with Vancouver, and 

73
00:04:05,900 --> 00:04:10,700
then my mom, she would work at 
whatever I think it wasn't 

74
00:04:10,700 --> 00:04:13,800
playing, but it was like peony. 
So she would have boots for 

75
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:17,399
work. 
And she actually, there was this

76
00:04:17,399 --> 00:04:22,600
like, tram thing and she said, 
you can find me if you get lost,

77
00:04:22,700 --> 00:04:24,600
just follow the tram. 
And I'm like, at the end of the 

78
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:26,600
tram, almost like end of the 
rainbow, right? 

79
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:30,500
And she would let E between six 
and eight years old because we 

80
00:04:30,500 --> 00:04:35,600
want every summer wander the 
peony by myself. 

81
00:04:37,500 --> 00:04:39,300
Imagine letting her 
eight-year-old do that now. 

82
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:43,200
Yeah, and I'm talking these were
overprotective parents like my 

83
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:46,200
parents were very strict but for
some reason they felt totally 

84
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,800
safe there and I would just 
totally check out all these. 

85
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,400
It's like I remember going into 
like a marine ship and getting 

86
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,500
like a Polaroid photo of me with
like some Navy. 

87
00:04:55,700 --> 00:05:03,000
Oh yeah. 
I think I went on some. 

88
00:05:05,300 --> 00:05:07,800
It was like you know when those 
armored vehicles I think it's 

89
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,200
called a Grizzly. 
It has like Wheels. 

90
00:05:11,100 --> 00:05:16,100
Yeah, like kids playing kids 
being free like and that was 

91
00:05:16,100 --> 00:05:19,000
good for my mom because she 
didn't have to tote me around. 

92
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,500
She could do her job and then 
like, I just totally wandered 

93
00:05:21,500 --> 00:05:23,400
around. 
And I'd I don't think I even had

94
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,200
money or anything. 
Like I just walked around like I

95
00:05:26,207 --> 00:05:28,300
don't remember I didn't know how
to pay for self. 

96
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:31,900
You don't have a phone, you 
don't have a Tracker. 

97
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,800
I just like I remember saying 
just follow the tram and I never

98
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:36,700
got lost. 
I had provider. 

99
00:05:36,700 --> 00:05:40,200
That's today's to say oh if you 
get lost go talk to an adult 

100
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:41,100
until you go. 
See it? 

101
00:05:41,900 --> 00:05:43,200
Yeah, that's what my mom would 
do to. 

102
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:46,200
My mom was really strict and, 
you know, little bit on the 

103
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:47,800
uptight scale but she was the 
same thing. 

104
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,800
Okay, I want you back here in an
hour and if you get lost, just 

105
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:55,000
go talk to find yourself an 
adult and they will help you. 

106
00:05:55,100 --> 00:05:57,800
How did we even tell the time I 
didn't have a watch. 

107
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:01,300
Like we didn't have phones so 
but you knew you knew what an 

108
00:06:01,300 --> 00:06:05,300
hour was or whatever and you. 
I don't even know how I did 

109
00:06:05,300 --> 00:06:08,700
that, but I remember just like, 
wow, I'm on my own and I could 

110
00:06:08,700 --> 00:06:10,000
go look at whatever I wanted to 
go. 

111
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:15,000
Look at, I could explore. 
So we don't have that now. 

112
00:06:15,300 --> 00:06:18,000
No, it's a different time but I 
remember like we were talking 

113
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:22,900
about the Expo land. 
I remember when Granville Island

114
00:06:22,900 --> 00:06:25,300
was just being built and before 
it was built, we should go 

115
00:06:25,300 --> 00:06:27,300
fishing there. 
My mom would take us and go 

116
00:06:27,300 --> 00:06:29,600
fishing off the porch. 
They're like, you know, this off

117
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,700
the dock there, we catch the 
statements and stuff would be, 

118
00:06:33,100 --> 00:06:36,000
it'd be clean because it's 
going, well, we wouldn't eat 

119
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:44,200
them like a fun activity to do. 
Like I could imagine they taking

120
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:49,900
my kids but it was a different 
city though. 

121
00:06:49,900 --> 00:06:54,900
It was it was it was a very open
people were more friendlier. 

122
00:06:54,900 --> 00:06:58,300
It was, it had a whole different
vibe. 

123
00:06:58,400 --> 00:06:59,400
Vibe. 
And like you're saying, what 

124
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:03,800
Expo for people who don't know 
Expo. 86 is a Expo. 86 was like 

125
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,300
a world fair. 
Exposition it lasted for six 

126
00:07:06,300 --> 00:07:08,300
months, right? 
Exotic. 

127
00:07:08,300 --> 00:07:12,200
Six months and every country had
a pavilion and you get like a 

128
00:07:12,207 --> 00:07:15,500
passport and go to the Ontario 
provincial Yin, the Nova Scotia 

129
00:07:15,500 --> 00:07:18,700
Pavilion, the American Pavilion 
American when had a moon landing

130
00:07:18,700 --> 00:07:22,800
one, which was cool and that you
mentioned, the Egyptian one had 

131
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:25,100
Ramsey, the sack and that had a 
big impression. 

132
00:07:25,700 --> 00:07:28,000
And I remember going to the 
Saudi Arabia, when was kind of 

133
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:29,700
cool. 
My mom took a picture of this 

134
00:07:29,700 --> 00:07:31,700
lady and her full kind of Hub 
jib. 

135
00:07:31,700 --> 00:07:33,700
As she looked, very beautiful. 
And she had like, it was very 

136
00:07:33,700 --> 00:07:37,100
like elaborate had like Pete, 
like, gold and stuff. 

137
00:07:37,100 --> 00:07:40,100
And so it was cool to see get 
experiences with all these 

138
00:07:40,100 --> 00:07:44,000
different countries and there's 
all these African ones, and 

139
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,200
Southeast Asia. 
It was really cool and you can 

140
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:48,900
go multiple times because he 
couldn't see everything in one 

141
00:07:48,900 --> 00:07:50,500
day. 
Oh, absolutely. 

142
00:07:50,500 --> 00:07:53,000
And they had fireworks like all 
the time. 

143
00:07:53,700 --> 00:07:55,900
So you would stay waffle cones 
are really good. 

144
00:07:55,900 --> 00:07:58,300
I'm sorry but you had to stay 
late, right? 

145
00:07:58,400 --> 00:07:59,900
Right? 
So you co in the morning to make

146
00:07:59,900 --> 00:08:02,600
all day, but then it's like, 
they even encourage you to stay 

147
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:08,400
longer to watch fireworks. 
Yeah, the Giants watch watch. 

148
00:08:08,500 --> 00:08:12,000
Oh, I love swatches. 
That was so, that was the first 

149
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:15,000
time where swatches were really 
cool and trendy and everyone had

150
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,100
one. 
And then they came out with the 

151
00:08:17,100 --> 00:08:20,500
Expo, Swatch watch. 
And it was probably a 

152
00:08:20,500 --> 00:08:23,600
collector's I have now, and then
also my mom. 

153
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,200
Did your mom collect like, 
little spoons. 

154
00:08:26,700 --> 00:08:31,300
Oh my God, she made me. 
Yeah, my mom had a spoon 

155
00:08:31,300 --> 00:08:34,400
collection and and she would and
then that was the one thing that

156
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:36,100
expose. 
You got all these little spoons 

157
00:08:36,100 --> 00:08:40,000
and pens the pins were popular. 
They must be like the same age 

158
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,200
because my mom's like you need a
collection and I'm like, I don't

159
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,200
want to collect anything, and 
she's like spoons. 

160
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,400
Yeah, that was big back then 
though my mom had like spoons 

161
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:52,100
from around the world. 
Had to be made a rock. 

162
00:08:52,100 --> 00:08:55,400
Yeah yeah yeah. 
It was even funny. 

163
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,200
She made a rock with the like a 
map of beasts. 

164
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:00,200
See, but the spoons were from 
everywhere. 

165
00:09:00,300 --> 00:09:02,000
It's just, yeah, it's kind of 
funny. 

166
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:06,500
I have that hens were popular 
like all the different pens like

167
00:09:06,500 --> 00:09:10,800
you get from all the different 
Pavilions, how they still had 

168
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,600
those pins. 
But yeah, you know that that was

169
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,400
like one of the things, right? 
And then and then the Expo land 

170
00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:19,900
became the track for or Molson 
Indy. 

171
00:09:20,700 --> 00:09:22,200
Yeah. 
Do you ever go to in the most in

172
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:25,900
Indy, event know, I didn't. 
But you know, when I became a 

173
00:09:25,908 --> 00:09:32,100
young adult I heard it. 
It was always pretty cool but I 

174
00:09:32,108 --> 00:09:35,500
thought well why would you go 
there and it just whizzes by so 

175
00:09:35,500 --> 00:09:38,300
fast like weird. 
But I guess it's the whole 

176
00:09:38,300 --> 00:09:39,600
experience. 
Yeah. 

177
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,500
It's experience and there's 
different races and then you can

178
00:09:42,500 --> 00:09:46,300
go to the to see the pit Crews 
and see the cars, and it's a 

179
00:09:46,308 --> 00:09:48,600
huge area. 
So you're walking around. 

180
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:50,500
I'll actually tell you a funny 
story. 

181
00:09:50,500 --> 00:09:55,700
I do. 
It was probably early 2000's. 

182
00:09:55,700 --> 00:10:02,200
It's probably about 2003. 
And I started this job and it 

183
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:04,800
was like not, I wasn't even 
there for like a week. 

184
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,900
He was like, you know, you're 
that you're out there, you're a 

185
00:10:07,900 --> 00:10:10,700
newbie and you don't know who's 
who and, you know, just trying 

186
00:10:10,700 --> 00:10:14,300
to be polite and not spit when 
you talk to people, you know, I 

187
00:10:14,308 --> 00:10:18,100
mean just trying to be on your 
best behavior and it was like my

188
00:10:18,100 --> 00:10:20,900
first week there and it was like
this lady. 

189
00:10:20,900 --> 00:10:24,400
She was the assistant manager. 
And at the end of the day, she 

190
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:27,200
walks over and she kind of let 
you know, using her soul her 

191
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:31,200
manager or kind. 
Like tonality and approach to me

192
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:35,200
so Mark we're having a party. 
Okay. 

193
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,300
Oh where oh it's going to be at 
my place. 

194
00:10:37,700 --> 00:10:39,900
Oh that's cool. 
What kind of Parts the Molson 

195
00:10:39,900 --> 00:10:43,000

the street at one of the condos 

196
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,900
right across from Science World 
actually. 

197
00:10:46,300 --> 00:10:49,100
So right on Main and terminal 
there's these great big giant 

198
00:10:49,100 --> 00:10:50,800
buildings right across the 
street. 

199
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:52,700
One of the first ones that went 
up. 

200
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:57,000
Yeah, we're a hundred thousand 
dollars each I remember. 

201
00:10:57,300 --> 00:11:02,300
Wow, So anyways, I go to this 
party was in the, it was a 

202
00:11:02,300 --> 00:11:05,800
Saturday and it was show me to 
come over around noon because 

203
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:09,300
apparently the owners of the 
condo is all got tickets to go, 

204
00:11:09,300 --> 00:11:12,600
see them Molson Indy because of 
the noise level, but her 

205
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,500
balcony, she said her balcony 
actually overlooks the trucks. 

206
00:11:15,500 --> 00:11:19,900
He says, oh, we could watch it 
from the balcony and then we can

207
00:11:19,900 --> 00:11:24,300
walk over and go to the, you 
know, Molson Indy and see the 

208
00:11:24,300 --> 00:11:25,800
exhibit and everything. 
Right? 

209
00:11:26,100 --> 00:11:30,100
So when someone says we are 
having Wiggy, right? 

210
00:11:30,100 --> 00:11:31,800
You're suspecting all the whole 
office going to be. 

211
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:33,000
Then I thought, well, sure, I'll
go. 

212
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:36,500
I didn't want to say no, I want 
to make a good impression and I 

213
00:11:36,508 --> 00:11:39,800
got there, but 1:00 and nobody's
there. 

214
00:11:40,300 --> 00:11:44,100
That's why I also think I'm the 
first one to arrive, so I decide

215
00:11:44,100 --> 00:11:46,200
to us. 
Oh, when's everyone's coming? 

216
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:47,900
Oh, it's just me and you, I just
invited you. 

217
00:11:49,100 --> 00:11:56,000
Oh, a party for me. 
And you, oh, that's a really

She was pretty button down 
there. 

225
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:23,000
She was wearing a pretty much. 
I think she was like what's that

Well so you know, coughs, you

Of course she got pictures with

270
00:15:04,300 --> 00:15:07,400
was on the other foot, if I was 
a manager in their new woman, 

271

just like up-and-coming not was 

278
00:15:41,900 --> 00:15:44,400

So I saw them, of course, I 

279
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:47,300
nobody knew who they were at the
time, but then thinking back, 

280
00:15:47,300 --> 00:15:49,000
right? 
So that's cool. 

281
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,800
But my very first Like, official
concert that I bought tickets 

282

eighth. 

283
00:15:57,900 --> 00:16:00,400

your way to the front because it

284
00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:07,000

00:16:27,500 --> 00:16:30,400
Well, we were, when I lived in,

310
00:18:01,700 --> 00:18:04,700
was really amazing concert. 
So yeah, I got to see a lot of 

311
00:18:04,708 --> 00:18:09,900
really great concerts and I kind
of miss that a probably more 

312
00:18:09,900 --> 00:18:12,100
recently. 
I'm kind of remember the last 

313
00:18:12,100 --> 00:18:14,800
time I do a concert I've been 
going to probably more to 

314
00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:17,500
smaller venues I can't remember 
the last time I did it like a 

315
00:18:17,508 --> 00:18:21,900
big Stadium concert but those 
were big like in the in the 80s 

316
00:18:21,900 --> 00:18:25,000
and 90s that at BC Place Pacific
Coliseum. 

317
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:28,000
GM Place. 
These were like big like yeah. 

318
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:31,100
I think I think the last big 
concert I went to was Guns and 

319
00:18:31,100 --> 00:18:33,600
Roses but he didn't show up and 
there was actually a bit of a 

320
00:18:33,608 --> 00:18:36,500
kerfuffle outside. 
It was got it wasn't a bad 

321
00:18:36,500 --> 00:18:37,900
right? 
But people are pissed off 

322
00:18:37,900 --> 00:18:40,400
because Axl Rose's little crazy 
he just he was just like a 

323
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:44,000
no-show and everyone everyone 
was pretty upset for obviously 

324
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:47,300
we have different tastes in 
concert so like I've been to 

325
00:18:47,300 --> 00:18:54,000
Backstreet Boys like quite a few
times you probably have it. 

326
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:27,500
Within These that term 
metrosexual. 

327
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:32,700
Yeah, these guys were the most 
metrosexual tone, but not really

328
00:19:32,700 --> 00:19:37,100
big spiky frosted hair and 
perfectly getting them out of 

329
00:19:37,100 --> 00:19:40,800
trouble, all incredibly irons, 
their girls and Fort st. 

330
00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:42,500
John, you're going to get your 
ass kicked. 

331
00:19:42,900 --> 00:19:44,700
Oh sure. 
Enough some guys running off the

332
00:19:44,700 --> 00:19:47,100
girl Mark more. 
Come get me. 

333
00:19:47,100 --> 00:19:49,400
I'm in trouble. 
Oh my God. 

334
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:52,700
Yeah, these guys using, the guys
are pretty Savage up in Fort st.

335
00:19:52,700 --> 00:19:56,100
John so yeah. 
So, it was kind of funny. 

336
00:19:56,100 --> 00:19:58,000
Yeah. 
So, yeah, I do, I do, I do. 

337
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:02,800
I do boy bands and then I did go
see Ryan Stewart. 

338
00:20:03,300 --> 00:20:06,400
Yeah, I think Jackson was always
a good concert. 

339
00:20:07,700 --> 00:20:09,700
Which one sorry to hear Janet 
Jackson 

340
00:20:24,100 --> 00:20:27,800
outfit and they did like the 
coordinated dancing account was 

341
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:31,600
the entertainment of it, right? 
It was like, what your value for

342
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:33,400
your money. 
But you know what, I remember 

343
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:35,700
the cost of those things being 
like, 50 bucks. 

344
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:40,600
Yeah. $100. 
If you go I remember like if you

345
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:49,400
got like for example, those who 
tickets and those are but yeah 

346
00:20:49,400 --> 00:21:06,000
there's a lot of hockey and 
listen to one of my old, lots of

347
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:08,600
free hockey. 
Yes. 

348
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:11,000
And I course I didn't. 
I didn't understand the source 

349
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,400
of the tickets, but, anyways, I 
got to go see lots of hockey 

350
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:16,500
games because of that. 
Anyways, I cease to see the San 

351
00:21:16,500 --> 00:21:23,700
Jose Sharks, quite a bit 
interesting because I really get

352
00:21:23,700 --> 00:21:25,000
into it. 
Embarrassing. 

353
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:29,200
But, anyways, she was able to 
get lots of tickets is 

354
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:32,800
specifically when the San Jose 
Sharks sharks came into town. 

355
00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:36,200
Always had free tickets, you 
know, for me heard ago, you 

356
00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:37,800
know. 
So I But the, but the tickets 

357
00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,200
were good, like, they were good 
tickets, like they were right on

358
00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:45,400
that, like Center ice right out,
like, right, like, right on the 

359
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:47,400
Ice Center. 
I so he did when they hit the 

360
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,800
boom, they're right in front of 
you, you know what I mean? 

361
00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:52,800
Banging on the ground coat. 
So I got to see like, amazing 

362
00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:56,000
like athletes because I own 
Pavel Brewery was in town. 

363
00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:00,400
Trevor Linden was a captain, 
there was a great team right 

364
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,000
there was that was a really good
team. 

365
00:22:02,700 --> 00:22:06,500
I got to see em be a lot. 
I dated a girl, her dad. 

366
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:11,400
He owned. 
He was a part owner of a large 

367
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:14,500
Car Lot. 
Jim car lot in Kelowna, so he 

368
00:22:14,500 --> 00:22:19,700
got season tickets, but he lived
in Kelowna and when he so he 

369
00:22:19,700 --> 00:22:22,800
would mail us the tickets. 
So we got to see every team, New

370
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:28,500
York Knicks, Houston Rockets out
LA Kings, and then when he came 

371
00:22:28,500 --> 00:22:31,700
into town, he upgraded the 
tickets to the Chicago Bulls and

372
00:22:31,700 --> 00:22:34,900
we sat right behind the bench. 
Get behind the truck. 

373
00:22:34,900 --> 00:22:38,100
I could have tapped Michael. 
Odin on the shoulder, I'd 

374
00:22:38,100 --> 00:22:42,200
Scottie Pippen. 
Oh, what's his name? 

375
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:47,200
The guy with, you know, if the 
earrings and the piercings and 

376
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:50,000
muscle dies and it's Robert 
Dennis Rodman. 

377
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:54,300
So yeah he wasn't playing, he 
was he wasn't playing as he was 

378
00:22:54,300 --> 00:22:56,200
injured but he was sitting right
in front of me. 

379
00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:02,100
And but yeah, that but that was 
like the All-Star Chicago Bulls 

380
00:23:02,500 --> 00:23:04,200
when all that's all the 
championship. 

381
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:08,200
So yeah, because you know, this 
this is Vancouver used to be 

382
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:11,000
like this is when it was an 
actual world class City, when 

383
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:17,400
something Chicago Bulls in town,
the LA Kings like wild. 

384
00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:19,800
Like it's just not like that 
anymore. 

385
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,400
And yeah, you could probably 
bump into them into in a bar or 

386
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:24,600
like walking down the street or 
something. 

387
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,300
Well, the Canucks used to like 
the Roxy. 

388
00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:34,300
Oh, they did. 
Yeah, you know, careful Brandy's

389
00:23:34,300 --> 00:23:41,100
to, they still go to bed. 
Like actors liked going there. 

390
00:23:41,600 --> 00:24:03,400
All right, I didn't know 
we had a Hard Rock Cafe. 

391
00:24:06,700 --> 00:24:08,000
Hollywood. 
Right. 

392
00:24:09,100 --> 00:24:11,500
That's where the library used to
be before they built the 

393
00:24:11,500 --> 00:24:14,100
Colosseum. 
Did we have hard rock, or am I 

394
00:24:14,100 --> 00:24:17,300
thinking of Planet Hollywood? 
We, I don't think we had the 

395
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,700
yeah, we did. 
We did hit Hard Rock Cafe, the 

396
00:24:19,700 --> 00:24:23,600
Hard Rock Cafe, I believe was on
West Hastings. 

397
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:28,600
Really? 
Yeah, it was like, yeah. 

398
00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:31,100
I didn't last very long. 
There was a Hard Rock Cafe. 

399
00:24:31,100 --> 00:24:35,200
It was. 
Do you remember where? 

400
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:38,800
Okay, so there used to be be a 
bar with a gay bar and was 

401
00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:40,700
called The Odyssey. 
Yeah. 

402
00:24:40,700 --> 00:24:45,800
See the Odyssey moved and that 
used to be the Hard Rock Cafe, I

403
00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:49,700
don't, but they ought to see end
up closing down, but we had the 

404
00:24:49,700 --> 00:24:53,200
Soft Rock Cafe that was in kits.
But is it not really feel for 

405
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:56,800
this kind of thing? 
But we had Planet Hollywood 

406
00:24:56,900 --> 00:25:00,300
Planet Hollywood is where I 
think it's Victoria's Secret now

407
00:25:00,300 --> 00:25:02,900
is change was hmm? 
Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. 

408
00:25:03,300 --> 00:25:04,400
Yeah, yeah. 
And they had a lot of 

409
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:06,500
celebrities when that when it 
opened up all the you know? 

410
00:25:06,700 --> 00:25:10,200
Celebrities came out for that 
but you Sabella run into lots 

411
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:11,700
of. 
Oh I got to tell you a celebrity

412
00:25:11,700 --> 00:25:14,200
story. 
It is it is horrific and it's so

413
00:25:14,300 --> 00:25:21,500
exciting and I truly was like 
one of my most like oh you know,

414
00:25:21,500 --> 00:25:23,300
for the love of God moment, 
right? 

415
00:25:23,300 --> 00:25:25,900
So I dated a woman miss your 
game if you want to roll the 

416
00:25:25,900 --> 00:25:33,100
piece and she was a legal 
secretary and she had a very big

417
00:25:33,100 --> 00:25:36,500
personality so we were what we 
solidify. 

418
00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:39,800
On Richards Street. 
And we're walking up to 

419
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:44,300
Milestones, as a Friday evening.
It was summertime, we walked 

420
00:25:44,300 --> 00:25:47,700
from Richard Street, we're 
walking up to Robson to get the 

421
00:25:47,700 --> 00:25:54,200
Milestones, that Berard and the 
cross street. 

422
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:57,700
Berard. 
And where were the the library 

423
00:25:57,700 --> 00:25:59,300
is? 
And there was like a hot dog 

424
00:25:59,300 --> 00:26:01,300
because I've hot dog stand 
there. 

425
00:26:01,300 --> 00:26:04,100
It's not a problem. 
Don't ya rocks and Street 

426
00:26:04,100 --> 00:26:09,200
Roxanne. 
Roxanne And that's where 

427
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:13,000
Victoria's Secret is now. 
But at the time it was, hm 

428
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:15,300
music. 
You really know this location of

429
00:26:15,300 --> 00:26:18,700
Victoria's Secret. 
I'm just saying 

430
00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:04,500
And he's trying to buy a hot 
dog. 

431
00:27:04,500 --> 00:27:07,800
At the hot dog stand. 
And, and he's small, he's 

432
00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:10,600
probably like five to like what?
I've three. 

433
00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:12,300
He's very petite. 
Yeah, he's right. 

434
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:20,100
She was a woman. 
She was 510. 

435
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:04,500
Mom's house, so matter. 
But why do you have to be so 

436
00:28:04,500 --> 00:28:06,300
rude to him and stuff? 
And she didn't care. 

437
00:28:06,300 --> 00:28:09,500
She got her prize, she got her 
picture and what and then and 

438
00:28:09,500 --> 00:28:12,500
then when we got home, like she 
would always like, every Friday 

439
00:28:12,500 --> 00:28:14,700
evening. 
Should she had three sisters? 

440
00:28:15,300 --> 00:28:21,200
And every, every Friday evening 
was me, listening her talking in

441
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:26,700
Portuguese, at level 10, all her
sisters, and no raw at all. 

442
00:28:26,700 --> 00:28:29,800
I hear is blah de da Portuguese,
and Robin Williams, Robin 

443
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:31,800
really? 
Robin Williams, Robin Williams, 

444
00:28:32,500 --> 00:28:35,600
It's like that poor guy and then
you know, probably traumatized 

445
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:37,800
them. 
I think how many times that poor

446
00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:41,500
guy had to go through that, you 
know, are just crazy, lunatic, 

447
00:28:41,500 --> 00:28:45,900
you know, fans, you know. 
Yeah, I was at Bridges 

448
00:28:45,900 --> 00:28:54,000
restaurant with my, to Auntie's 
in their 70s beside us, was 

449
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:58,900
Harrison Ford. 
So I said to my auntie's don't 

450
00:28:58,900 --> 00:29:04,900
look now, but Harrison Ford is 
like right there. 

451
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:14,600
And what do they do? 
But it was pretty cool. 

452
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,400
What am I more funnier? 
Celebrity moments. 

453
00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:23,100
And so I still live on Thurlow 
Street and there and I had a dog

454
00:29:23,100 --> 00:29:27,200
and there was this dog park on 
Thurlow, this fucking called 

455
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:33,300
Thurlow Park and I take the dogs
there and it was Billy Baldwin. 

456
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:38,500
Oh yeah, yeah, he was skinny and
had spiky hair and I knew who he

457
00:29:38,500 --> 00:29:41,000
was, he wasn't, he had a little 
Cocker Spaniel. 

458
00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:43,200
And he kept saying, I do, we 
know what's eating? 

459
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:46,000
He's wanted me to say, oh, What 
where are you from? 

460
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:48,800
Like and I knew exactly who he 
was and I was walking the dogs 

461
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:50,200
and, you know, playing with the 
dog. 

462
00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:52,700
I mean know, what city I am in, 
he kept saying that over and 

463
00:29:52,700 --> 00:29:54,200
over again. 
Oh, I've been in so many cities 

464
00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:56,500
and I'm supposed to say hobo. 
How many places have you been to

465
00:29:56,500 --> 00:29:58,200
pay? 
When I just kept ignoring it 

466
00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:01,700
because ignoring it was kind of 
like I was getting irritated 

467
00:30:01,700 --> 00:30:03,900
because I did say, oh, you look 
familiar. 

468
00:30:03,900 --> 00:30:09,800
You, you know, it was kind of a 
funny you know what, the other 

469
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:14,800
one that I had and this is like,
it's such a weird encounter, but

470
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:18,300
There was Fletcher's, dry 
cleaner in Arbutus area. 

471
00:30:18,700 --> 00:30:21,900
Oh yeah and I was the passenger 
so my husband was dropping off 

472
00:30:21,900 --> 00:30:25,400
the dry cleaning but he took so 
freaking long. 

473
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:28,900
So I remember just like kind of 
staring like and looking at the 

474
00:30:28,900 --> 00:30:30,700
front doors like where the hell 
is he? 

475
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:33,600
So who's walking by? 
And then he goes like this. 

476
00:30:33,700 --> 00:30:36,000
Hmm. 
And I'm like, oh my God, I'm 

477
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,700
looking at the front door, not 
at you, you know who it freaking

478
00:30:38,700 --> 00:30:42,300
was Brent? 
But from Corner Gas. 

479
00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:48,000
What the hell is this guy giving
me like the googly eyes? 

480
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:51,000
Like rude. 
Right and then I you realize 

481
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:54,100
because he's so identifiable I'm
like oh my God he thought it was

482
00:30:54,100 --> 00:30:57,300
staring at him even though I'm 
waiting for my husband and 

483
00:30:57,300 --> 00:31:01,700
pissed that my husband's taking 
so long, like the eagle of some 

484
00:31:01,700 --> 00:31:08,000
people hearing at him, I did 
some extra work and you know, 

485
00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:11,400
I'd gets like sometimes to get 
upgraded to the special skills 

486
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:13,900
or they there was one they 
called Silent on Cinema. 

487
00:31:13,900 --> 00:31:17,100
So I was always cast. 
Cop a lot or uniform has on X 

488
00:31:17,100 --> 00:31:19,500
Files. 
I told the story I had I won't 

489
00:31:19,500 --> 00:31:23,500
tell it again but I had the very
bizarre experience with Julian 

490
00:31:23,500 --> 00:31:25,700
Anderson. 
That was a very bizarre 

491
00:31:25,900 --> 00:31:28,700
experience which are lucky. 
I think she's a great actress. 

492
00:31:28,700 --> 00:31:31,300
Thought she was great in the 
crown and stuff but yeah that 

493
00:31:31,300 --> 00:31:34,700
was a strange one. 
The coolest celebrity I met on 

494
00:31:34,700 --> 00:31:38,300
set was actually Tommy Chong. 
He was super cool. 

495
00:31:38,300 --> 00:31:42,500
Looking we worked on this set. 
It was actually at Riverview and

496
00:31:42,500 --> 00:31:44,800
it was a small set and he was 
funding it out of his own. 

497
00:31:44,900 --> 00:31:46,900
Own pocket. 
So it's kind of very independent

498
00:31:46,900 --> 00:31:48,800
film Phil and we had lunch 
together. 

499
00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:52,100
We all sat together at the table
laid off, China of his white 

500
00:31:52,100 --> 00:31:54,700
like after nice. 
Porcelain China and stuff was 

501
00:31:54,700 --> 00:31:56,900
like a nice beautifully set 
table. 

502
00:31:57,000 --> 00:32:00,000
Like if you're having dinner 
with him and his wife was that 

503
00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:02,000
era, she was very beautiful and 
gracious. 

504
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:03,600
And who's this hilarious? 
He kept. 

505
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:09,100
And so in this store, in this 
film, I was a Border guard who 

506
00:32:10,500 --> 00:32:14,100
and he was growing marijuana and
them in my scene. 

507
00:32:14,100 --> 00:32:16,700
There's a strike. 
Norma's pot plant and it was so 

508
00:32:16,700 --> 00:32:20,300
big that I couldn't believe it 
was a big pot plant because it 

509
00:32:20,300 --> 00:32:23,900
is big and it is in. 
The funny thing was his 

510
00:32:23,900 --> 00:32:28,000
directorial debut of directing 
me for the scene, he comes up to

511
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:31,200
me and he has kind of a funny 
voice because okay man, this is 

512
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:34,300
what I want you to do. 
I want you to walk in and then I

513
00:32:34,308 --> 00:32:37,600
want to chat you to check the 
bottom of your shoes like this. 

514
00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:41,700
See if he stepped in dogshit 
because it smells so bad from 

515
00:32:41,700 --> 00:32:44,300
the pot plant. 
So what you go check your shoes 

516
00:32:44,300 --> 00:32:47,500
that he was very big specific of
even how to check the bottom of 

517
00:32:47,500 --> 00:32:51,400
my shoe nice stuff. 
So it was hilarious. 

518
00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:55,900
He was absolutely funny but the 
actual director on that set was 

519
00:32:55,900 --> 00:32:59,000
getting was driving was drive. 
He was driving him crazy because

520
00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:02,000
he kept coming in and 
redirecting and kept okay, don't

521
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,400
know this do it this way, this 
way, but he was super cool. 

522
00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:06,300
Like I can't emphasize like 
this. 

523
00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:12,100
So nice and humble and there was
no attitude and and the other 

524
00:33:12,100 --> 00:33:17,200
cool one was aliens. 
Hi, Bishop okay. 

525
00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:20,600
Remember the guy was a robot. 
He puts his hand. 

526
00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:23,600
He does a nice thing to do to, 
you know, he was a he was the 

527
00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:27,100
end Droid and Aliens. 
I mean, he said, I just remember

528
00:33:27,100 --> 00:33:29,800
the Grim Reaper last Henderson 
is his name. 

529
00:33:30,100 --> 00:33:33,800
Okay, he's to do a show in 
Vancouver, it was filmed, it was

530
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:37,400
a spin-off show off of X-Files 
was called millennium. 

531
00:33:38,500 --> 00:33:41,100
Okay. 
Yeah, he that was his show and I

532
00:33:41,108 --> 00:33:45,200
was casted in a lot and will 
usually as a cop and I remember,

533
00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:47,900
I had the scene. 
Where was this pouring? 

534
00:33:47,900 --> 00:33:49,400
Rain? 
Like it was a, it was a house 

535
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:51,700
and Shaughnessy and it was a 
crime scene. 

536
00:33:51,900 --> 00:33:55,400
And my scene was standing in the
pouring rain guarding the crime 

537
00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:58,200
scene with this metal clip 
board, and it was like that 

538
00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:03,000
freezing cold, slush rain. 
So my fingers are literally 

539
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:06,500
turning blue from holding this 
metal clip board and just 

540
00:34:06,500 --> 00:34:09,100
shivering but just do they 
Everything rights. 

541
00:34:09,100 --> 00:34:11,199
But he was cool. 
He was a super cool guy or 

542
00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:15,100
strangest acting. 
I think was probably Carl 

543
00:34:15,100 --> 00:34:18,500
Weathers, but from Rocky Rocky 
Balboa. 

544
00:34:19,500 --> 00:34:23,100
Oh, the trainer guy. 
Yeah, Carl Weathers was his 

545
00:34:23,100 --> 00:34:26,000
first and then the rocky series,
he was his first one. 

546
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:29,400
He was Apollo Creed. 
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 

547
00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:33,000
And this old lady was on the set
and she goes up to him and says,

548
00:34:33,300 --> 00:34:37,500
oh, hi. 
I'm a big fan of your movies and

549
00:34:37,500 --> 00:34:40,199
what he says to her. 
He's animal snarling, you know, 

550
00:34:40,199 --> 00:34:49,699
you're not supposed to talk to 
the principal and then remember,

551
00:34:49,699 --> 00:34:53,000
Dennis Miller. 
Yeah, yeah. 

552
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:54,800
He was Saturday live guy. 
Yes. 

553
00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:56,699
Yeah. 
So we're were on the scene and 

554
00:34:56,707 --> 00:34:59,300
was like all it was all these 
big dudes and stuff from was 

555
00:34:59,300 --> 00:35:02,400
like this and this guy who was 
like a, I worked with him as a 

556
00:35:02,408 --> 00:35:05,600
bouncer and this club, this guy 
was a big dude, right? 

557
00:35:06,500 --> 00:35:09,900
And we're talking we're stuck. 
Almost between SATs we're just 

558
00:35:09,900 --> 00:35:12,200
talking amongst ourselves and 
Dennis Miller came right up to 

559
00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:16,100
us and said to my friend. 
Hey how does it feel like you're

560
00:35:16,100 --> 00:35:18,900
going to be a meathead bouncer 
for the rest of your life? 

561
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:22,200
He just looked at him casuals, 
how does it feel to having your 

562
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:26,000
show counseled and in less than 
a month and these blocks? 

563
00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:29,200
Wow. 
Your back to her saying though, 

564
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:32,600
but this was Vancouver he was 
ready to celebrity and stuff 

565
00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:34,800
like that, right? 
Oh good, the bad, the ugly since

566
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:37,000
the name of the this podcast 
Series right. 

567
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:38,100
You know, thank you for the 
beautiful. 

568
00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:44,000
Doug didn't soak a restaurants. 
What were some of your favorite 

569
00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:46,300
restaurants that you miss are no
longer here? 

570
00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:50,300
Well, you know what? 
There was one called Penny Ling,

571
00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:53,100
Penny Lane Cafe, on Robson 
Street. 

572
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:55,900
Okay, I remember that one. 
And it was just fun inside, like

573
00:35:55,900 --> 00:35:58,500
it had. 
I don't know if it was the 

574
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,600
Beatles theme or like, yeah, 
yeah. 

575
00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:04,900
It had a bike like that. 
That bike thing. 

576
00:36:04,900 --> 00:36:09,100
It cool things. 
That was very It was like a 

577
00:36:09,107 --> 00:36:14,100
second floor and backwards 
celebrities when we went there a

578
00:36:14,100 --> 00:36:19,600
lot me and my boyfriend but it 
was Doogie Howser was sitting 

579
00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:22,300
there, all right? 
Okay cool. 

580
00:36:22,700 --> 00:36:25,300
So that was cool but no I 
enjoyed that restaurant, it was 

581
00:36:25,300 --> 00:36:29,800
affordable and it was fun and it
was like then it wasn't a chain 

582
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:31,300
or anything. 
So, that was cool. 

583
00:36:31,700 --> 00:36:35,800
And then also again, on Robson 
Street, there was a sushi place 

584
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:38,100
and I camera was called, but it 
had floating boats that. 

585
00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:39,400
Let her out. 
Yeah. 

586
00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:41,700
Yeah, the boat that would float 
around and they had that under 

587
00:36:41,700 --> 00:36:44,300
that one, he grabbed, whatever 
you wanted, right? 

588
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:49,700
And that was also like I was 
probably 18 or 19 so I was just 

589
00:36:49,700 --> 00:36:53,000
starting to eat sushi, right. 
Like in lady we didn't have 

590
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:55,200
sushi restaurants. 
So this is like you go to 

591
00:36:55,207 --> 00:36:56,500
Vancouver. 
You get sushi. 

592
00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:59,400
So it was like Micah to back 
then those new. 

593
00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:08,100
Yeah, and like well this is the 
thing to the boy. 

594
00:37:08,300 --> 00:37:10,900
And here put a lot of the green 
stuff on. 

595
00:37:10,900 --> 00:37:13,800
You'll love it. 
I'm like, and then your nose 

596
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:16,100
would flare. 
And you're like, thanks. 

597
00:37:16,300 --> 00:37:17,800
Yeah, that's why we're not 
dating. 

598
00:37:18,100 --> 00:37:21,900
That's why I didn't marry that. 
We could be harsh. 

599
00:37:21,900 --> 00:37:24,300
Like it is thicker ice into what
it is. 

600
00:37:24,700 --> 00:37:27,000
You got to think back when was 
the first time that you had 

601
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:29,000
Wasabi. 
Nobody, tell course not 

602
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:32,000
horseradish, right. 
Yeah. 

603
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:33,700
Like nobody tells you how bad it
is. 

604
00:37:33,700 --> 00:37:38,100
They kind of look at your 
reaction, like their futile. 

605
00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:41,100
Places I had Miss, there was a 
breakfast place where I live 

606
00:37:41,100 --> 00:37:46,300
downtown, and when people would 
from, would come from out of 

607
00:37:46,300 --> 00:37:47,900
town, we do the night of time 
ago. 

608
00:37:47,900 --> 00:37:49,000
I'm gonna take you guys out for 
breakfast. 

609
00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:51,200
I'll never tell them, it was 
called the Elbow Room. 

610
00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:55,100
I know this place. 
Bring that. 

611
00:37:55,100 --> 00:37:58,800
Okay, talk about it. 
I remember room was small but 

612
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:01,800
they had amazing eggs Benny, but
they had service with an 

613
00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:03,200
attitude. 
Like recently, I've been seeing 

614
00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:05,800
this new Karen restaurant, but 
they were the original care and 

615
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:08,000
rest, I know I must have gone. 
There you guys. 

616
00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:10,000
They would just bust your. 
You know what? 

617
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:12,900
We need to walk in there and if 
you didn't finish your food, 

618
00:38:12,900 --> 00:38:16,300
that make a big spectacle and 
sometimes I'd bring like a macho

619
00:38:16,500 --> 00:38:17,700
guy. 
That didn't expect it and 

620
00:38:17,707 --> 00:38:20,100
there's all said, it's like you 
didn't finish your food. 

621
00:38:20,100 --> 00:38:22,700
You know, you're a waster, 
you're gonna have to confront 

622
00:38:22,700 --> 00:38:26,200
some donation to The Loving 
Spoonful like they'd be like so 

623
00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:28,500
into the the guys like what kind
of place would you take me 

624
00:38:28,500 --> 00:38:40,000
there? 
And they were very very tiny was

625
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:43,500
been 941 and been 94 to in the 
West End. 

626
00:38:43,500 --> 00:38:48,000
They were so good. 
They had little red. 

627
00:38:48,300 --> 00:38:57,400
Yes, it was very dark, so good 
and this is gone. 

628
00:38:57,700 --> 00:38:59,300
It's amazing. 
Whoo. 

629
00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:02,400
Yeah, but I remember that bread 
that was like that hot pocket 

630
00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:04,000
bread. 
It was fresh out of the oven 

631
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:08,700
Brett. 
I'm the other one too. 

632
00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:10,900
I miss. 
It was actually it's kind of 

633
00:39:10,908 --> 00:39:12,700
funny was a late late, late 
night plays. 

634
00:39:12,700 --> 00:39:16,900
There's a couple of those there 
was this one place it was like a

635
00:39:16,900 --> 00:39:21,700
Greek place in kits and the menu
was a like it was called The 

636
00:39:21,707 --> 00:39:25,100
Vineyard that was like that. 
Seriously the menu was a size of

637
00:39:25,100 --> 00:39:28,800
a phone book that breakfast. 
Did this did Stakes had Greek 

638
00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:30,500
food. 
They had, you know, pancakes are

639
00:39:30,500 --> 00:39:33,300
there any time you want? 
It was 24 hour restaurant but 

640
00:39:33,300 --> 00:39:37,600
the thing was they served after 
hours and if Ordered a beer 

641
00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:39,800
after hours. 
They put it like a tea cups and 

642
00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:42,700
stuff so you're drinking like 
Claire is. 

643
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:45,200
Yeah. 
And then there was a place on 

644
00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:50,700
Granville and Davey was a, it 
was a thing called Sing Village.

645
00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:53,500
You had to take out window. 
It was really like that, a 

646
00:39:53,508 --> 00:39:57,300
takeout window and you go in 
there, but the trick was, you 

647
00:39:57,900 --> 00:40:01,200
you'd go to the you do you go to
the front, where the coach Huck 

648
00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:05,200
was and say, oh, I'd like to, 
I'd like to take have an order 

649
00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:09,600
takeout and they would I'd hand 
you have a brown paper bag and 

650
00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:12,400
it would be a six pack of beer 
and their what 

651
00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:39,900
Can you come 6.0 here? 
You know, you're hot, the hell, 

652
00:40:39,900 --> 00:40:43,200
did you get that right? 
But now for crazy culture, 

653
00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:46,400
someone probably rat them out, 
they doing, you know, on social 

654
00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:49,000
media, these people are serving 
whole call late. 

655
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:50,800
We should get their liquor 
license for who they think, you 

656
00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:53,300
know, this is the culture now. 
They'd be like totally ratted 

657
00:40:53,300 --> 00:40:57,800
out and expose exposed selling 
alcohol after out, you know what

658
00:40:57,800 --> 00:40:59,400
I mean? 
Like there's the the you know, 

659
00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:02,200
the fun of the you know, the fun
parts of the city, sometimes I 

660
00:41:02,207 --> 00:41:02,900
miss. 
Right? 

661
00:41:02,900 --> 00:41:05,200
But that you know, I wouldn't 
have let you get away with that 

662
00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:10,300
now, you know, Probably not your
the other fun memory I have 

663
00:41:10,300 --> 00:41:13,300
because I did. 
Did this, every year is the 

664
00:41:13,300 --> 00:41:16,800
monster truck. 
Show that calculus, like, I 

665
00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:20,000
don't, do they still have it? 
Like, I don't know because those

666
00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:23,900
trucks are just fascinating how 
big they are the Pini. 

667
00:41:23,900 --> 00:41:26,200
Had them. 
Last time I saw like the big 

668
00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:28,400
monster was probably the peony 
but I'm going to be C place 

669
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:31,300
would have it and you'd like, 
destroy your ears because they 

670
00:41:31,300 --> 00:41:34,800
were so pretty loud. 
But it was like, again, an 

671
00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:39,300
experience that You're just like
sat there and you were amazed 

672
00:41:39,300 --> 00:41:43,300
and you did it once a year and 
it was it was fun when I live 

673
00:41:43,300 --> 00:41:45,600
downtown this is what it was 
like for me, right? 

674
00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:47,700
I were close to where you say 
we're close now. 

675
00:41:47,700 --> 00:41:51,800
He's been a walk to my job. 
Walk home for lunch, right? 

676
00:41:52,700 --> 00:41:56,700
Always stuff going on the dog, 
show at BC Place the RV boat, 

677
00:41:56,700 --> 00:41:59,800
show it be AC place, then they 
would have liked. 

678
00:42:00,100 --> 00:42:02,900
Remember, I'd watch like, it was
like it was like, you know, 

679
00:42:02,900 --> 00:42:08,500
member the plaza of Nations, 
they had Stuff going on there, 

680
00:42:08,700 --> 00:42:10,700
use it. 
Yeah. 

681
00:42:10,700 --> 00:42:14,600
Music there's always like stuff 
going on or Stanley Park. 

682
00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:16,200
There's always stuff going on 
there. 

683
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:18,500
And so it was always like you 
didn't really have to plan 

684
00:42:18,500 --> 00:42:19,700
anything, just so just leave the
house. 

685
00:42:19,700 --> 00:42:21,200
Yes. 
And something's gonna happen. 

686
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:23,300
Seems, you know, especially 
people came out of town. 

687
00:42:23,300 --> 00:42:25,700
So what you want to do, I will 
find something great. 

688
00:42:25,700 --> 00:42:27,300
Right? 
And that's awesome. 

689
00:42:27,300 --> 00:42:30,600
And I think that's so important 
too, because you shouldn't have 

690
00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:33,800
to plan everything all the time 
and you shouldn't have to pay 

691
00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:35,000
for everything. 
All the time, we should be 

692
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:37,800
having these things all the time
which Then stimulates the 

693
00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:42,000
economy, like people are buying 
drinks, buying food paying for 

694
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:44,200
parking. 
Then you let you know going for 

695
00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:47,900
dinner after and, you know? 
Yeah, totally. 

696
00:42:47,900 --> 00:42:50,300
Totally. 
I actually almost funny, one of 

697
00:42:50,300 --> 00:42:52,400
the funniest ones was a one of 
those unplanned. 

698
00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:55,200
Once I said, because I lived out
of town, I used to run the sea 

699
00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:57,400
wall or do you eat if I didn't 
feel like running? 

700
00:42:57,600 --> 00:42:59,500
I would do like a power walk or 
rollerblade. 

701
00:42:59,500 --> 00:43:01,000
I used to rollerblade like 
Christmas. 

702
00:43:02,100 --> 00:43:03,600
Yeah. 
I used to love rollerblading 

703
00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:09,500
anymore. 
Rollerskating the other day, but

704
00:43:09,500 --> 00:43:12,100
yeah, I don't really see 
rollerblading more, but I I so 

705
00:43:12,100 --> 00:43:16,000
rollerblades. 
I used to rollerblade the 

706
00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:19,800
seawall cross to the can be 
bridge. 

707
00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:22,500
And then I do the other side, 
the Expo, land, the sea wall 

708
00:43:22,500 --> 00:43:26,500
there, you know, like the false 
Creek Falls, Creekside you false

709
00:43:26,500 --> 00:43:29,500
Creek. 
All they do false create across 

710
00:43:29,500 --> 00:43:33,900
the can be Bridge through 
downtown and then all around the

711
00:43:33,900 --> 00:43:36,200
seawall, right? 
But I remember I was doing one 

712
00:43:36,200 --> 00:43:41,400
of my Bleeding adventures and 
the member the Harry Krishna 

713
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:48,000
Harry. 
Yeah, we still say it was kind 

714
00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:54,100
of fight, very spectrally had an
actual cow like a big giant and 

715
00:43:54,300 --> 00:43:56,700
and this woman she was actually 
pretty attractive. 

716
00:43:56,700 --> 00:44:00,300
She's here you ever read about 
of agita here, I want to read 

717
00:44:00,300 --> 00:44:05,500
the part of the Gita with you, 
it's like, okay, sure, and she 

718
00:44:05,500 --> 00:44:10,600
gave me a call. 
And then I took her phone 

719
00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:12,000
number. 
Stuck my phone number and 

720
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:14,200
thinking, oh, he's kind of hot, 
right? 

721
00:44:14,300 --> 00:44:18,000
And then, I just got call after 
call after call Dot from her, 

722
00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:27,300
not for her, but for like a 
temple in Richmond and we offer 

723
00:44:27,300 --> 00:44:32,300
free food, it's coming, but 
it'll end up just being you. 

724
00:44:32,700 --> 00:44:35,100
Yeah, exactly. 
So yeah, it's almost got 

725
00:44:35,100 --> 00:44:36,600
recruited for the being very 
Chris. 

726
00:44:36,900 --> 00:44:40,100
Yeah, but it was kind of funny. 
It was fun, it was kind of like,

727
00:44:40,300 --> 00:44:45,300
and but they, what was it that 
they had this big thing. 

728
00:44:45,300 --> 00:44:48,000
It was like this. 
I was it was, I think, was that 

729
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:50,500
second Beach. 
It was that second Beach where 

730
00:44:50,500 --> 00:44:53,700
they had their big set up this 
big massive set up in there. 

731
00:44:53,800 --> 00:44:55,900
I don't know how they got the 
lights that have this big giant.

732
00:44:55,900 --> 00:44:59,200
There was a huge couch who was 
probably an 800 pound cow. 

733
00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:02,000
But yeah. 
And the whole cruel people want 

734
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:04,000
to kill these lovely animals, 
like, you know, because I get 

735
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:07,400
her vegetarian right but but 
isn't Not that cruel. 

736
00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:11,800
Dragging a big giant cow around 
in the city on. 

737
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:15,200
Hey. 
You know what did you ever go to

738
00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:20,200
Body Works? 
The exhibit that had preserved 

739
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:23,200
bodies like real hot. 
Yeah, yeah. 

740
00:45:24,100 --> 00:45:28,600
We had, we had a legitimate one 
here, okay. 

741
00:45:28,900 --> 00:45:33,500
But when we went to Seattle, 
there was like a different 

742
00:45:33,500 --> 00:45:37,000
version of it. 
And they said that the Bodies 

743
00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:40,000
came from Chinese prisoners. 
Oh my God. 

744
00:45:40,100 --> 00:45:45,900
Yeah, so I'm glad I went to one 
of them. 

745
00:45:45,900 --> 00:45:49,500
I think I actually went to the 
one in Seattle, but yeah, and I 

746
00:45:49,500 --> 00:45:51,800
was thinking, oh, this isn't the
same one that we had in 

747
00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:55,600
Vancouver. 
But the one in Vancouver, they 

748
00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:58,900
had to show like the death 
certificates and all that kind 

749
00:45:58,900 --> 00:46:07,500
of stuff and it was I think a 
German lead thing but yeah. 

750
00:46:07,500 --> 00:46:09,800
But the one that was 
controversial was like they 

751
00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:12,900
think the bodies were from 
Chinese prisoners, isn't that 

752
00:46:12,900 --> 00:46:15,200
crazy? 
The foul and gong to prisoners? 

753
00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:17,300
Probably, who knows? 
It was. 

754
00:46:17,300 --> 00:46:20,300
Just yeah. 
But I remember that was pretty 

755
00:46:20,300 --> 00:46:22,900
fascinating that we had like a 
show like that. 

756
00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:28,700
So, and then I'm trying to think
other things, you know what? 

757
00:46:28,700 --> 00:46:31,500
Even when I was younger, like a 
teenager, we'd go to first 

758
00:46:31,500 --> 00:46:33,000
night. 
It was right? 

759
00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:35,600
Yes, December 31st and you bring
all your friends. 

760
00:46:35,600 --> 00:46:40,600
And you know, I there must have 
been SkyTrain back then but it, 

761
00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:44,000
you know I don't even know how 
the hell we got out here, to be 

762
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:47,400
honest I gotta tell you a 
hilarious story is about a 

763
00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:50,500
concert and I got so friend zone
like this. 

764
00:46:50,500 --> 00:46:55,800
The worst friend zone I've ever 
gotten My legs only girl you 

765
00:46:55,800 --> 00:47:09,300
want you wanted to date the 
okay can I tell you? 

766
00:47:10,300 --> 00:47:23,700
I met him so I cleared him. 
All right. 

767
00:47:23,700 --> 00:47:26,600
We'll go to Lenny, Kravitz 
mazing concert like one of the 

768
00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:31,000
best concerts I've ever been to 
right after the concert she 

769
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:33,300
goes. 
Oh, Mark, that was awesome. 

770
00:47:33,700 --> 00:47:36,000
Well, maybe maybe I'll take you 
to a concert sometime. 

771
00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:40,100
Thank you, I think something. 
Oh, that kind of sucks, but 

772
00:47:40,100 --> 00:47:41,400
whatever the concert was so 
good. 

773
00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:45,200
I almost didn't care, right? 
And then, and then Noble almost 

774
00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:49,000
like two weeks later. 
She calls me up and says, hey, 

775
00:47:49,100 --> 00:47:50,300
remember you took me Lenny 
Carlo? 

776
00:47:50,300 --> 00:47:53,100
Yeah, of course, I remember. 
I got to pass. 

777
00:47:53,300 --> 00:47:56,100
Each mode tickets, I wasn't 
really a big fan like oh cool 

778
00:47:56,100 --> 00:47:58,000
right thinking. 
Well maybe maybe I'll get out of

779
00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:07,200
the friend zone, okay, so it was
at Sam and she's with a big 

780
00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:10,700
group of her girlfriends are all
dressed up and stuff and I'm the

781
00:48:10,700 --> 00:48:13,000
only guy right? 
Which should have been a red 

782
00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:16,800
flag there and we're walking up 
to the gate, right? 

783
00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:19,500
She's pulling up the tickets. 
All here's your ticket Mark, 

784
00:48:19,500 --> 00:48:22,000
right? 
I look at my big cool and they 

785
00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:24,400
go through the gate. 
All going one way. 

786
00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:27,600
And then the guy says, oh no, 
no, you are going up there. 

787
00:48:27,900 --> 00:48:30,600
So she bought me a ticket. 
I guess she felt bad because, 

788
00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:33,200
you know, these these Lenny. 
Kravitz tickets were so awesome.

789
00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:35,700
She felt location to do 
something in return. 

790
00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:40,200
Who bought me a Depeche Mode 
ticket where I was waking up at 

791
00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:43,200
the nosebleeds by myself here, 
whatever, you'd like, it was 

792
00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:46,900
like, even hardly even why 
anyone around me and it was the 

793
00:48:46,900 --> 00:48:48,900
worst concert. 
So from going from one of the 

794
00:48:48,900 --> 00:48:53,100
best concert he was like, oh my 
God, this is so like us. 

795
00:48:53,300 --> 00:48:57,600
Listen, Applause from the 
audience constantly know 

796
00:48:57,600 --> 00:48:59,300
covering his dear. 
Come on. 

797
00:48:59,300 --> 00:49:00,800
Come on look, it wasn't like 
filler. 

798
00:49:01,300 --> 00:49:04,100
You'd sing huge sing almost for 
about 3 minutes. 

799
00:49:04,100 --> 00:49:07,300
Okay, let's get some energy. 
You be here, you can cooperate. 

800
00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:12,800
And so after, like, the 10th 
time being, I'm so God was 

801
00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:15,300
actually one of the concert. 
So so I lie. 

802
00:49:15,300 --> 00:49:17,900
I leave, right? 
And then I never talk to her 

803
00:49:17,900 --> 00:49:20,600
again. 
I think she called me a few 

804
00:49:20,600 --> 00:49:22,200
times in this, like looked at my
phone. 

805
00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:26,600
Oh, yeah. 
So anyways so weird. 

806
00:49:26,700 --> 00:49:28,500
Oh well, it happens to the best 
of us. 

807
00:49:28,500 --> 00:49:31,700
I guess we every guy gets friend
zone where, you know, once or 

808
00:49:31,700 --> 00:49:34,600
twice in their life. 
Maybe I could maybe happen to me

809
00:49:34,600 --> 00:49:38,100
more times, I wish to admit, but
it is what it is, right? 

810
00:49:38,900 --> 00:49:44,000
I do admit, I had to apply the 
friend zone thing many times. 

811
00:49:44,500 --> 00:49:47,700
Well, some guys are clueless and
they, you know, I've seen where 

812
00:49:47,700 --> 00:49:51,100
I could see where some guys will
kind of force the hand of the 

813
00:49:51,107 --> 00:49:53,100
friend zone because they're so 
aggressive. 

814
00:49:53,200 --> 00:49:59,300
And you know, not as you know 
but yeah but you know you again.

815
00:50:02,200 --> 00:50:06,800
But Cooper used to be fun for 
dating if you want gear. 

816
00:50:08,700 --> 00:50:11,700
Yeah, I'm going to be doing a 
series of you got, it won't 

817
00:50:11,700 --> 00:50:14,300
really get into it here. 
But I that's one of the things 

818
00:50:14,300 --> 00:50:16,800
I'm going to because I see so 
much good really straight and it

819
00:50:16,800 --> 00:50:19,500
also gives me a break from 
talking about cases. 

820
00:50:19,500 --> 00:50:22,500
That involve murder. 
I do want to do more cases on 

821
00:50:22,500 --> 00:50:25,400
narcissistic abuse and the dark 
side dating. 

822
00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:29,600
And course, I have tons of 
Plenty of Fish stories and And 

823
00:50:29,700 --> 00:50:31,700
other dating apps stories like 
that. 

824
00:50:31,700 --> 00:50:33,300
Yeah. 
Some of the Plenty of Fish 

825
00:50:33,300 --> 00:50:36,100
stories are actually pretty 
funny actually, but no one 

826
00:50:36,100 --> 00:50:49,000
really good. 
It was like a phone. 

827
00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:51,700
This is like early 90s. 
It was like those things are 

828
00:50:51,700 --> 00:50:54,500

Again, I was up late the other 

829
00:50:54,500 --> 00:50:59,300

831
00:51:03,600 --> 00:51:05,900

den laying on the couch and 

832
00:51:05,900 --> 00:51:10,200

I was like, he's this well, 

833
00:51:10,200 --> 00:51:13,200

835
00:51:15,700 --> 00:51:18,600

But oh, speaking of which, 

845
00:51:44,300 --> 00:51:49,600
because he lived in Langley, was
it like someone made a 

846
00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:52,900
long-distance call? 
Who made a long-distance call 

847

You couldn't? 

848
00:51:56,100 --> 00:52:15,500
Yeah, it was like, there was is 
owns and then that would have 

849
00:52:15,500 --> 00:52:17,500
affected. 
So many relationships couldn't 

850
00:52:17,500 --> 00:52:18,600
happen. 
Totally. 

851
00:52:19,300 --> 00:52:22,900
And like I said, what was so 
embarrassing that this like this

852
00:52:22,900 --> 00:52:25,300
summer camp? 
My mom was so Her saying that 

853
00:52:25,300 --> 00:52:28,400
she drove a Chevy Nova that 
there was okay. 

854
00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:31,300
There was a paint Place back in 
the day, it was called. 

855
00:52:31,300 --> 00:52:37,800
Earl shibez, Earl shibez and it 
was like, 199 dollar paint jobs.

856
00:52:38,000 --> 00:52:43,100
Yeah, so my mom bought this 
secondhand Chevy Nova and then 

857
00:52:43,100 --> 00:52:47,700
got it painted a robin egg blue 
color so it was just god-awful 

858
00:52:47,700 --> 00:52:49,500
like just the most embarrassing 
car. 

859
00:52:49,500 --> 00:52:52,800
So imagine this. 
I'm going in this fancy rich 

860
00:52:52,800 --> 00:52:56,400
summer camp. 
Everyone has Where's Mercedes 

861
00:52:56,400 --> 00:53:01,900
and cheeks are hurting, remember
like those cool TR7, a British 

862
00:53:01,900 --> 00:53:04,800
of convertible, few of those 
because we're like the cool car.

863
00:53:05,300 --> 00:53:06,800
Yeah yeah yeah. 
Totally. 

864
00:53:06,900 --> 00:53:12,000
And then my mom's robin. 
Egg Nova pulls up yo-yo. 

865
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:16,900
Super embarrassing. 
Only, there was a girl there who

866
00:53:16,900 --> 00:53:22,500
super nice to me and I really 
liked her and she was she was 

867
00:53:22,500 --> 00:53:26,000
German but their family was From
South America. 

868
00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:27,400
She was very blond and blue 
eyes. 

869
00:53:27,400 --> 00:53:32,500
And there are from Uruguay and 
her dad moved from bar very 

870
00:53:32,500 --> 00:53:38,200
after the war, if you get my 
drift to the South America and 

871
00:53:39,200 --> 00:53:42,400
super nice, you know, spent 
every summer there and one day I

872
00:53:42,400 --> 00:53:48,500
had the Kahuna's to ask her out 
and she's like, I'm like, hi and

873
00:53:48,500 --> 00:53:51,600
I call her up. 
And I say, I would you like to 

874
00:53:51,600 --> 00:53:53,800
go for a coffee or coffee would 
be nuts. 

875
00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:56,500
But, you know, Don't think I'll 
be available because this other 

876
00:53:56,500 --> 00:53:59,300
guy named Jason was a legitimate
Rich, Caicos. 

877
00:53:59,500 --> 00:54:03,100
Oh he's going to be taking me to
Pub Club Med. 

878
00:54:03,600 --> 00:54:08,400
Oh ramudu. 
So I can be available for the 

879
00:54:08,400 --> 00:54:17,500
coffee Mark. 
Yeah. 

880
00:54:32,800 --> 00:54:37,900
So my mom had which became my 
first car, which I was so 

881
00:54:38,300 --> 00:54:43,500
embarrassed to drive but it was 
a 76 Camaro. 

882
00:54:43,800 --> 00:54:49,300
Oh cool, white vinyl interior. 
Yeah, light lose know, I know 

883
00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:53,300
light blue and no fin on the 
back. 

884
00:54:53,500 --> 00:54:55,700
But I had to drive this thing 
and I was like super preppy. 

885
00:54:56,000 --> 00:54:59,100
So here I am driving to sing but
when my mom used to drop me off 

886
00:54:59,100 --> 00:55:01,200
at school, she's a terrible 
driver. 

887
00:55:01,200 --> 00:55:02,600
I'm sorry. 
I'm totally throwing her under 

888
00:55:02,600 --> 00:55:06,100
the bus. 
She ran over the pylons at high 

889
00:55:06,100 --> 00:55:10,900
school so she begged them all. 
Yeah, no. 

890
00:55:11,000 --> 00:55:15,400
So we went to work with these 
pylons. 

891
00:55:15,400 --> 00:55:18,200
She worked in Abbotsford, 
something she drove with the 

892
00:55:18,200 --> 00:55:21,800
pylon stuck underneath her car 
to Abbotsford and back and ended

893
00:55:21,800 --> 00:55:23,100
up in the driveway with the 
pylons. 

894
00:55:23,400 --> 00:55:26,800
How embarrassing is that? 
Yeah, that's pretty 

895
00:55:26,800 --> 00:55:29,300
embarrassing. 
Yeah, so you said your preppy, 

896

00:57:59,600 --> 00:58:04,000
Wow, I slanted it. 
Yeah, so yeah, she she went 

925
00:58:04,000 --> 00:58:06,000
through this real rebellious 
hippie. 

926
00:58:06,300 --> 00:58:09,400
And that's how she met my dad. 
My dad was a Vietnam, vet and 

927
00:58:09,408 --> 00:58:13,600
American, and they wish met him 
at some Vietnam protest. 

928
00:58:13,600 --> 00:58:18,900
And yeah. 
So that's how anyways that also 

929
00:58:18,900 --> 00:58:22,700
got Kerr cut out a lot us. 
Yeah. 

930
00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:25,700
But anyways, yeah, this this, 
that was, that was a trap. 

931
00:58:25,900 --> 00:58:28,000
That was a trip like oh, you 
have thirty five thousand 

932
00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:29,000
dollars. 
Cool. 

933
00:58:29,000 --> 00:58:31,300
And then they would go, they'd 
go on a shopping spree. 

934
00:58:31,300 --> 00:58:32,800
And we just be like, Joe's 
buying member. 

935
00:58:32,800 --> 00:58:41,200
Remember those Santana jeans A 
bags and stuff, and it's just 

936
00:58:41,200 --> 00:58:43,500
like everything you you wanted, 
but it's like, you could never 

937
00:58:43,500 --> 00:58:46,700
get. 
Yeah, yeah. 

938
00:58:47,400 --> 00:59:07,000
Yeah. 
Are these kids this like buying 

939
00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:10,600
all the expensive Santana jeans 
a Guess jeans. 

940
00:59:10,600 --> 00:59:14,300
A polo shirts? 
Yeah. 

941
00:59:16,000 --> 00:59:19,900
The troubles. 
A the memories, the memories. 

942
00:59:20,100 --> 00:59:22,200
But yeah, I know the whole point
of the podcast is this, you 

943
00:59:22,207 --> 00:59:25,100
know, the nostalgic, the fun 
things about Vancouver. 

944
00:59:25,100 --> 00:59:28,800
The restaurants the, you know, 
there were 60 so many amazing 

945
00:59:28,800 --> 00:59:30,600
restaurants. 
Like there was actually this 

946
00:59:30,600 --> 00:59:33,200
restaurant, it was kind of a 
hole in the wall place and I 

947
00:59:33,207 --> 00:59:35,500
don't know how they stayed in 
business for So long. 

948
00:59:35,500 --> 00:59:39,100
So it'll work out this gem. 
That was a 24 hour gym on ground

949
00:59:39,100 --> 00:59:42,800
Wall Street was called 
neighborhood gym and and up the 

950
00:59:42,800 --> 00:59:46,200
street side work out and then up
the street they had these 99 

951
00:59:46,400 --> 00:59:51,400
sorry, 999 steak sandwiches, its
right on ground will Street and 

952
00:59:51,400 --> 00:59:52,900
it was right by where the movie 
theaters. 

953
00:59:52,900 --> 00:59:54,600
What? 
And it was like a good solid 

954
00:59:54,600 --> 00:59:58,200
like a good quality steak like 
to this day that's take, I could

955
00:59:58,200 --> 01:00:00,900
probably order somewhere now and
it'd be a fifty dollar stake 

956
01:00:00,900 --> 01:00:04,400
like a good sirloin steak and 
and I'd go in there and be 

957
01:00:04,400 --> 01:00:10,000
nobody in And if he does board 
kind of glasses of water to try 

958
01:00:10,000 --> 01:00:12,700
to look for things to do, but 
anyways, yeah, there was so many

959
01:00:12,700 --> 01:00:15,600
places like that in Vancouver 
that were like, been around 

960
01:00:15,600 --> 01:00:19,400
forever and had all these, like,
amazing food and, like, under 

961
01:00:19,400 --> 01:00:22,500
$10, you could eat like, just 
yay food, you know? 

962
01:00:22,500 --> 01:00:24,300
Like there's just a lot of Greek
and kits. 

963
01:00:24,300 --> 01:00:27,000
There were lots of great places 
like that, like getting like a 

964
01:00:27,000 --> 01:00:32,000
big Greek Souvlaki dinner for 
there was one place for 9.99, 

965
01:00:32,000 --> 01:00:35,500
I'd get three chicken breasts, a
good quality chicken, Huge 

966
01:00:35,500 --> 01:00:41,300
things of rice a Teriyaki, 10 
Zeki pita bread I'm big 999. 

967
01:00:42,900 --> 01:00:45,600
So you should be affordable to 
eat out east before W. 

968
01:00:45,600 --> 01:00:48,100
No to go out and have a good 
time and stuff, right? 

969
01:00:48,100 --> 01:00:54,200
So your hamburgers $15 or more. 
Well, I'll tell you a story. 

970
01:00:54,200 --> 01:00:57,500
I had a hamburger. 
Once it was a feeny's hamburger.

971
01:00:58,100 --> 01:01:07,900
Oh yes, my Lord. 
What was on this thing dummy? 

972
01:01:08,900 --> 01:01:11,900
It was really big, but it had 
too much spicy knee in. 

973
01:01:11,900 --> 01:01:13,800
It was it was actually pretty 
gross. 

974
01:01:14,500 --> 01:01:15,700
It. 
Tasted it actually. 

975
01:01:15,700 --> 01:01:18,900
Tasted like it. 
Tasted like really spicy Meat 

976
01:01:18,900 --> 01:01:23,000
Loaf in a bun. 
Well, try it once I guess. 

977
01:01:31,300 --> 01:01:34,000
No, but that's I think what it 
went from. 

978
01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:38,400
Like I remember when Restaurants
were good and family in there, 

979
01:01:38,400 --> 01:01:40,700
like you're saying, the 
atmosphere is a fund or so many 

980
01:01:40,700 --> 01:01:44,100
kind of themed places. 
And then it went from that to 

981
01:01:44,100 --> 01:01:47,200
very pretentious, the food got 
smaller. 

982
01:01:47,200 --> 01:01:50,700
Because I remember when I was 
working in construction, I had 

983
01:01:50,700 --> 01:01:56,200
an another life I work as an 
iron worker and you know, you're

984
01:01:56,200 --> 01:01:59,700
pretty hungry at the end of the 
day and I went on this date, 

985
01:01:59,700 --> 01:02:02,900
this woman, I'm starving. 
It just could probably eat a 

986
01:02:02,900 --> 01:02:07,100
whole pot roast those so hungry.
You know, burn a lot of calories

987
01:02:08,200 --> 01:02:11,600
and we went to this fancy little
place and kits. 

988
01:02:13,400 --> 01:02:20,300
I ordered ravioli I could count 
how many they were the worst of 

989
01:02:20,308 --> 01:02:23,300
them. 
And 35 seconds, I ate all my 

990
01:02:25,100 --> 01:02:39,800
tiny little salad and then or 
this blueberry pie I swear to 

991
01:02:39,808 --> 01:02:41,500
God it was like this. 
So thin. 

992
01:02:41,500 --> 01:02:44,400
It was like I ate before bites. 
So Mel, hey, do you want to go 

993
01:02:44,400 --> 01:02:48,900
to Burger King? 
You know what I kind of had so 

994
01:02:48,900 --> 01:02:51,200
many of those kind of 
experiences to like it's just 

995
01:02:51,200 --> 01:02:53,500
like it's more about the 
pretentiousness like, rather 

996
01:02:53,500 --> 01:02:57,300
than quality of food or being 
full. 

997
01:02:57,300 --> 01:03:00,300
I like when I mean, yeah, 
laughter. 

998
01:03:00,400 --> 01:03:03,500
Perfect. 
Kind of, that's kind of a good 

999
01:03:03,500 --> 01:03:07,500
expectation to have when you go 
to restaurant it's not amazing 

1000
01:03:07,500 --> 01:03:10,800
Chinese places like amazing 
Chinese food and it's probably 

1001
01:03:10,800 --> 01:03:14,700
still are. 
But there Is Hans orsola is 

1002
01:03:14,700 --> 01:03:17,200
order on zot stickers on rocks 
and straight. 

1003
01:03:17,200 --> 01:03:19,500
That place is amazing. 
I hope it's I haven't been on 

1004
01:03:19,500 --> 01:03:22,100
Robinson Street for a little bit
so I hope it's hard to say 

1005
01:03:22,100 --> 01:03:25,100
what's there. 
Yeah, I haven't, I haven't, you 

1006
01:03:25,100 --> 01:03:28,800
know, I haven't really since the
pandemic I haven't really gone 

1007
01:03:28,800 --> 01:03:32,800
out to eat a lot, but that place
was really good. 

1008
01:03:32,800 --> 01:03:34,300
There was a nice house. 
Amazing. 

1009
01:03:34,300 --> 01:03:37,700
Potstickers, lots of Japanese 
places are really good. 

1010
01:03:37,700 --> 01:03:41,100
They refused one number, the 
capital six. 

1011
01:03:41,800 --> 01:03:45,900
Yep, it was right across the 
capital sex, I don't remember 

1012
01:03:45,900 --> 01:03:49,300
that, but they cook in front of 
you, not not, not like Kobe's, 

1013
01:03:49,800 --> 01:03:51,800
but great and ahead, open 
kitchen. 

1014
01:03:51,800 --> 01:03:55,100
When you go in, they all cheer, 
you know how you think. 

1015
01:03:55,600 --> 01:04:02,600
Oh, great. 
Yeah, yeah, I have some crazy 

1016
01:04:02,600 --> 01:04:05,900
Kobe stories. 
I actually said, if the Mets, 

1017
01:04:05,900 --> 01:04:07,700
he's this crew, there was this 
creepy. 

1018
01:04:07,700 --> 01:04:10,400
Swinger couple. 
That was just like, oh my God. 

1019
01:04:10,500 --> 01:04:14,900
Yeah. 
That place, you know, I don't 

1020
01:04:14,900 --> 01:04:21,500
know. 
Yeah, I know, I miss the old 

1021
01:04:21,500 --> 01:04:25,700
Vancouver very much and and I 
kind of like these memories and 

1022
01:04:25,700 --> 01:04:27,100
stuff. 
I want other people to have the 

1023
01:04:27,100 --> 01:04:30,300
Mi want ya, enjoy the city. 
That's why you live in the city 

1024
01:04:30,300 --> 01:04:33,600
look. 
But anyways, I'm going to wrap 

1025
01:04:33,600 --> 01:04:36,500
it up here. 
Thank you so much cinnamon and 

1026
01:04:36,900 --> 01:04:39,800
will continue. 
All right, thanks, Mark by
