Chapter 2: How do Superfan Giovanni and the guests introduce themselves?
That was very funny. But knock it off. Sorry. Knock it off. Knock it off. Will you please stop smacking? I was teaching my daughter how to...
My youngest daughter, she was riding on a scooter and she fell down as a car was driving by and they looked at me as she was down on the ground and through the window, didn't really roll down the window, looked at me as if to ā and pointed down like, help her up.
Right.
And then they were like driving away and I was like, yeah, because we don't want to teach her how to help herself up as they're driving away and I couldn't say anything. I just looked like the guy who didn't help my daughter up.
No. You have how many children? I have two girls. Two girls.
Ages? Seven and nine. Two girls, and I have a son who's five and a daughter who's four months old.
Oh, the four-month-old. That's not even a kid.
No, it's not a kid. That's not a kid. Four-month-old girl.
That's like a brisket that cries.

Madison, Wisconsin at the Majestic Theater.
Oh, gorgeous.
Great town, Madison, Wisconsin. Of course. For stand-up comedy.

Chapter 4: What insights do they provide about their experiences in comedy?
I love them both. Both of them neat. Yeah, fantastic. Both of them clean. I often use it. By the way, yeah, I use this as a phrase. If you see something that is very well put together, I say that's neater than a gay man's office. Go to a gay man's office if you see anything out of place.
I have to say my ex-brother-in-law is kind of the Oscar Madison of the homosexual world.
Well, he was just doing it. That's his shtick. That was him trying to just buck the whole system.
Felix, I'm trying to jerk off to gay porn, Felix. Have you seen my gimbal? What's up your ass? It's not a spoon, it's a ladle. Sorry, that was Felix's line. And then you're going to Chicago to the comedy club.
Yes, end of May.
Okay, here's what I've been wanting to ask you. Yes, please ask away. My very good friend has identical twin sons. Mm-hmm. When one of them was between the ages of two and three, had a terrible near catastrophic accident in their swimming pool. Did not. Resulted in everything being okay.
Do we as twins recommend that people should have a swimming pool? Did we feel it when he got hurt?
The next day... Because all twins everywhere are connected, right? The next day, his identical twin brother was looking out the back door at the pool and started screaming... For his brother to get out of the pool.
The day after.

Chapter 5: What humorous moments are shared about Will Sasso's calves?
Oh, yeah. He was just fucking greased up.
Same stuff I put on my calves.
Yeah. Oh, we're going to get a shot of those calves. Yeah, we'll get a shot of those. It is absolutely glorious.
Good news about Three Stooges. Spoiler alert, but the Stooges dress up as nurses at one point. Oh, the calves are hanging. There is a glorious shot of Will Sasso's calves.
One of my buddies said that he goes, I know the curly is great and blah, blah, blah. He goes, but your forearms and calves are distracting.
Yeah. That's curly. Yeah, you're a lot of man. What do you weigh? I'm only asking because you're not fat. I am, as a solid human being, you're not going to believe me, about 470 pounds.
No, that's not true. Somewhere just a little south of Three Bills most of the time. But I'm 6'3".
You're a big dude.
I lift the weights and stuff. I throw the weights around.

Chapter 6: What insights are offered about acting opportunities in Canada?
Is acting ā I know Canada, and there's a lot of great performers who come from Canada and a lot of good comedy that comes from Canada ā Is it tough to pick up work there or is it a ā it's a smaller pool but there's more or less fish in it? Yeah, it's kind of a smaller pool.
But back in the day, like in the early 90s and stuff, there was like 21 Jump Street and X-Files and there was a bunch of ā Oh, right. There was so much stuff and I was on a Canadian series when I was a kid, when I was a teenager.
What was it?
Cavs and Company. It was like Degrassi. It was called Madison and I pitch it down here as sort of a Canadian my so-called life. It was kind of like that. It was a lot of teen problems. We had the first lesbian kiss on Canadian television. Way predated, Ellen.
Who did you play?
I played Derek Walkaluck, who was a pretty good egg most of the time. Rarely got into trouble and was kind of funny sometimes.
So did it get a lot of press? Did the lesbian kiss get a lot of press? No. None. None. Like, none. We were just like, this will do it. None.
The show was on five years, though, because it's just government grants and ratings don't matter. Sure. We're communists up there.
I like the fact that you guys go, listen, if you're going to play songs to the radio, we need 25% of them to be Canadian-born artists.

Chapter 7: How does the discussion shift to teenage parenting and school issues?
So it's like Seattle minus the assholes?
Seattle, it's like, yeah. No, Seattle doesn't really have assholes, but the people who live in Seattle are well aware they live in Seattle and they know it. Smug. Yeah, it's like me. I always say that all the time. I'm hot, but I don't know it. And that's part of what makes me hot. You know what I'm saying? Right, exactly, yeah. And that's what Vancouver is. They're hot, but they don't know it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No one tell them. You should have that on the sign.
We're hot, but we don't know it.
Yeah. I'll tell you what.
I'll tell you what. I was literally, one of the last times I was there, I was commenting to a friend that it's just, it's literally some of the most beautiful women you've ever seen in the world hanging out with tools. Yes. It's unbelievable.
And it's like in LA, you can't, you know, everyone's, it's weird too.

Chapter 8: What are the key takeaways from the conversation about parenting and societal issues?
standard, which is, all right, you want ā Some Coke? Or do you want me to introduce you to one of the Farrelly brothers? Like, what do you need from me?
And in Canada, they get kinder the more they get to the center of the country. They get even kinder.
Really?
So you take the East Coast and the ā well, the Far East Coast, they're very, very sweet in the maritime provinces. And then Toronto is a big city. Vancouver is a big city. But once you get to the middle of that country, it's just the nicest people in the world.
Is that like their Midwest?
Exactly. The prairies are like their Midwest. And it's just ā and girls with just flawless skin because of all the cold weather and fresh water and just ā Clean living.
It's unbelievable. I'm going back. Me too. I'm going to open a lumber yard. I'm going with you. All right. Fuck show business.
Now, if Vancouver is hot but doesn't know it, is the way to get in Vancouver's pants to compliment its looks or its mind?
I'd say just buy the beer.
