It looks like a little magic 0:00:29.036 --> 0:00:31.716 marker for princesses. It's like supposed to be used for 0:00:31.756 --> 0:00:35.236 bikini shaving. There was shape. I didn't know that women 0:00:35.276 --> 0:00:37.116 had those. We have a lot of secrets, man, We 0:00:37.196 --> 0:00:39.156 got a lot of tools in the tool belt. That's 0:00:39.156 --> 0:00:41.196 a tool for below the tool belt. I'm got in 0:00:41.236 --> 0:00:43.876 my case because when when I go out of my house, 0:00:43.996 --> 0:00:46.196 I can actually see my chin hairs in a better 0:00:46.196 --> 0:00:47.636 mirror than the one I have in my house. And 0:00:47.636 --> 0:00:49.556 I'll hit up a hotel and I'll turn on the 0:00:49.596 --> 0:00:52.476 magnified mirror and be like, oh, there's the forest of hairs, 0:00:52.636 --> 0:00:57.356 and I'll shave them all. This is the unvarnished travel show. 0:00:57.476 --> 0:00:59.316 I haven't wear makeup, but I will shave a chin here. 0:01:08.116 --> 0:01:14.716 This is not Lost Look Amazing only wears overalls and jumpsuits. 0:01:14.756 --> 0:01:19.596 Now the travel show about going places, define yourself. Each week, 0:01:19.836 --> 0:01:22.036 a friend and I go to a new place and 0:01:22.116 --> 0:01:24.516 try to get invited to someone's house for dinner. I 0:01:24.516 --> 0:01:26.676 feel like you were the turtle back on part. That's 0:01:26.716 --> 0:01:31.156 been my signature mood. I'm Brendan Francis Newnham are somehow 0:01:31.796 --> 0:01:36.316 and that's my friend Daniel Henderson as there's no boots. Man. 0:01:36.636 --> 0:01:39.356 We've just met up at Trudeau Airport. Staring at the 0:01:39.356 --> 0:01:42.676 people coming out of the plane. They look Canadian. I 0:01:42.796 --> 0:01:44.516 think they would just look like us, but they don't. 0:01:44.716 --> 0:01:47.236 They look better. They look like they have healthcare. Episode 0:01:47.236 --> 0:01:53.996 one Montreal, we're gonna I think calves are this way? 0:01:54.796 --> 0:02:02.396 See that? Oh my god, freezing. Why did we come 0:02:02.396 --> 0:02:09.556 to Montreal in the dead of winter. Well, because most 0:02:09.596 --> 0:02:13.516 travel shows would come here in Springer's fall. Yeah, I 0:02:13.516 --> 0:02:16.156 mean you're talking to someone who flew in from Los Angeles. 0:02:16.436 --> 0:02:18.436 I have a bag with my Burgenstocks handles in it 0:02:18.436 --> 0:02:20.356 because that's what I was wearing this morning. But I 0:02:20.396 --> 0:02:23.516 wanted like authentic Montreal man, Like I think, like this 0:02:23.916 --> 0:02:29.196 what separates the Canadian wheat from the Canadian chap. So 0:02:29.236 --> 0:02:32.676 we need to establish on this ride that your TV writer, 0:02:33.356 --> 0:02:39.716 I am a like audio journalist person and we're both single. 0:02:39.876 --> 0:02:42.356 We're on the wrong set of thirty five. We're looking 0:02:42.396 --> 0:02:45.796 for connection, creative meaning a hand to hold in this mad, 0:02:45.836 --> 0:02:48.676 mad world. My only plan was to get on a 0:02:48.716 --> 0:02:52.356 plane and show up. It's rad to see you, and 0:02:52.356 --> 0:02:54.356 I think we're gonna have fun. So basically I need 0:02:54.396 --> 0:02:56.956 to do this travel pod thing. We also have some 0:02:56.996 --> 0:03:00.316 people were going to meet, very excited, and I would 0:03:00.356 --> 0:03:04.236 like to hopefully insinuate herself into someone's home to have dinner, 0:03:04.236 --> 0:03:05.956 because I feel like that's the real way to meet them. 0:03:06.116 --> 0:03:08.556 When you say it like that, I can't imagine anyone 0:03:08.596 --> 0:03:11.716 else turning, anyone turning us down. I'd like to insinuate 0:03:11.756 --> 0:03:15.716 myself into your hole. Um, I'm gonna switch Mike's, so 0:03:15.876 --> 0:03:22.796 don't say anything interesting. Where are you all from? Okay? 0:03:22.916 --> 0:03:25.876 I'm from New York. Okay. So that there is the 0:03:25.876 --> 0:03:29.796 Olympic Stadium. Yeah, and you will see we are actually 0:03:29.876 --> 0:03:34.796 on an island, which is uh, you know, butch all 0:03:34.956 --> 0:03:37.916 is cool because we you know, we we are like 0:03:38.036 --> 0:03:41.196 Americans without the baggage. We can watch and look kind 0:03:41.196 --> 0:03:46.436 of laugh because we're across the border, but we're the same. 0:03:47.156 --> 0:03:50.476 Like you might even think I'm from Jersey. I thought 0:03:50.476 --> 0:03:53.796 you were from Jersey. What I mean, that's what an 0:03:53.836 --> 0:03:59.196 anglophone Quebecer sounds like. Can you say quintessential Quebecer anglophone sentence? 0:03:59.756 --> 0:04:03.956 All right, let's go get some put in Oh you 0:04:04.036 --> 0:04:06.516 try or smoked meat? All right? Did you get some 0:04:06.556 --> 0:04:09.836 bagels yet? Yeah? What about what about of you're just 0:04:09.836 --> 0:04:12.596 talking to your family or friends on a Sunday. Well, 0:04:12.676 --> 0:04:15.756 since I have three teenagers, I don't talk much to 0:04:15.796 --> 0:04:19.796 them because they're they're teenagers. But here you'll notice all 0:04:19.836 --> 0:04:23.836 the signs that we have around. They're all French. But 0:04:24.076 --> 0:04:28.676 if you notice, there will be some participate in English. 0:04:28.716 --> 0:04:32.356 But they have to be. This is a law. A 0:04:32.596 --> 0:04:37.996 third of the size. We've got the office d lallon 0:04:38.436 --> 0:04:43.196 fan the French police. Yeah, go around and go into 0:04:43.196 --> 0:04:46.636 your establishment and measure your sign and make sure you're 0:04:46.676 --> 0:04:50.636 comfort Oh yeah, we've we've tried to seceed from Canada. 0:04:51.036 --> 0:04:53.716 What time it was real close? I was like, I 0:04:53.756 --> 0:04:56.956 think forty nine fifty one. It was like every all 0:04:56.996 --> 0:05:00.236 the the head offices and companies just up and left, 0:05:00.796 --> 0:05:06.676 and the wealth left, and so what remained was nice, beautiful, 0:05:06.796 --> 0:05:11.796 easy to live, lovable Montreal. This is it. My tour 0:05:11.876 --> 0:05:15.316 has had the car. I don't, but I'm uber, Daryl, 0:05:16.196 --> 0:05:24.836 I thank you. Watch yourself in the eyes. You're welcome 0:05:24.876 --> 0:05:27.116 to grab my arm here for these icy regions. Here's 0:05:27.116 --> 0:05:28.916 where it gets treacherous, though, because now it's snow on 0:05:28.956 --> 0:05:31.716 top of ice. I think you just have to walk 0:05:31.756 --> 0:05:36.436 like an old person your entire walk. I just want 0:05:36.436 --> 0:05:39.036 to point out that a small child ran past us 0:05:39.076 --> 0:05:43.956 like she was just walking on grass, just fully ran 0:05:44.156 --> 0:05:47.476 past us while we take our old bones down this street. 0:05:51.716 --> 0:05:54.156 In my high school yearbook caption, I wrote a message 0:05:54.156 --> 0:05:58.756 to my unrequited crush. It said, dear E, our artists 0:05:58.756 --> 0:06:02.116 loft in Canada waits. I'd never even been to Canada 0:06:02.596 --> 0:06:05.076 or a loft, but somehow I'd gotten this idea that 0:06:05.076 --> 0:06:08.516 it was a place for culture, romance, an affordable real estate, 0:06:09.236 --> 0:06:12.756 three things I still long for. He's married now with 0:06:12.796 --> 0:06:15.676 two kids, but at least I made it to Canada. 0:06:16.516 --> 0:06:19.956 I'll be it in the dead of winter with my friend. 0:06:20.196 --> 0:06:23.316 Oh my gosh, there's a cat cafe ten feet from 0:06:23.356 --> 0:06:26.036 our door. That's insane. Danielle and I drop off our 0:06:26.036 --> 0:06:28.996 bags and head to the Museum of Fine Arts. As 0:06:29.036 --> 0:06:30.796 good a place as I need to learn about Montreal's 0:06:30.796 --> 0:06:33.636 creative roots. So it was a city where it was 0:06:33.676 --> 0:06:36.916 like much more important to be a sculptor than a doctor. 0:06:37.076 --> 0:06:39.556 That is really cool, whatever that is. They saw it 0:06:39.676 --> 0:06:41.756 last time I was here. My name is Heather O'Neill, 0:06:41.876 --> 0:06:44.116 and I'm a local Montreal author. These look kind of 0:06:44.116 --> 0:06:46.396 like Jacometti's a little bit right, yeah, like with the 0:06:46.516 --> 0:06:50.796 skinny elongated limbs. This is Louis Arschambau. He has sculptures 0:06:50.796 --> 0:06:53.596 and parks too. I believe this is like such a style. 0:06:54.276 --> 0:06:56.276 I always liked it, but my dad would try and 0:06:56.556 --> 0:06:59.876 show me like this is crap. I love the idea 0:06:59.876 --> 0:07:01.756 of been bringing you to all these works of public 0:07:01.836 --> 0:07:04.396 art just to point out how horrible they are, terrible 0:07:05.476 --> 0:07:09.036 phony fony. So we're making our way into the Quebec 0:07:09.476 --> 0:07:12.716 Arts Pavilion. You're not a historian. You're not responsible to 0:07:12.716 --> 0:07:14.916 explain all this to us. If you read anything you 0:07:15.036 --> 0:07:19.596 encounter the Quiet Revolution? Is there a way to summarize 0:07:19.596 --> 0:07:23.036 that pretty quickly? The kind of what that was? All? Right? Here, 0:07:23.076 --> 0:07:28.316 I go, okay, we'll just go to the sixties when 0:07:28.316 --> 0:07:31.436 it started all the sort of good jobs in Montreal, 0:07:31.516 --> 0:07:34.996 and all the executive jobs were held by English speaking people, 0:07:35.556 --> 0:07:39.276 and a lot of the companies were they were all 0:07:39.276 --> 0:07:44.076 owned by anglophones and they would only give English speaking 0:07:44.556 --> 0:07:48.956 citizens the jobs. And then what happened was there began 0:07:49.036 --> 0:07:54.276 to be a cultural movement where they decided we're just 0:07:54.356 --> 0:08:01.276 going to overthrow this predicament we're in so French class. Yeah, 0:08:01.436 --> 0:08:04.196 the lower class Francophones were like, this is just enough. 0:08:04.516 --> 0:08:08.236 One of the big movements was they made education all 0:08:08.276 --> 0:08:10.636 the universities free, So you ended up with this like 0:08:10.756 --> 0:08:13.796 massive class of young people who came from working class 0:08:13.836 --> 0:08:19.196 backgrounds but were incredibly educated and so obviously that created 0:08:19.276 --> 0:08:23.796 like radical thinking. So we're in this permanent exhibit called 0:08:23.796 --> 0:08:26.396 the Age of the Manifesto. Do you recognize any of 0:08:26.436 --> 0:08:29.316 these Oh, yeah, this is real pal who Yeah, is 0:08:29.396 --> 0:08:33.756 sort of our Jackson Pollock. He's incredibly well regarded in Quebec. 0:08:35.076 --> 0:08:38.356 Even someone myself came from as lower class as you 0:08:38.356 --> 0:08:40.596 get in the city, I still went to McGill University 0:08:40.676 --> 0:08:43.636 and had like a top rate education and then was, 0:08:43.996 --> 0:08:45.676 you know, kind of thrown back on the street corner. 0:08:45.756 --> 0:08:48.956 I was like, what do I do? I've just read 0:08:48.996 --> 0:08:51.676 a lot of Henry James. So there's this kind of 0:08:51.716 --> 0:08:55.516 irony and there's a humor when you're able to suddenly 0:08:55.956 --> 0:09:01.276 talk about your odd, down and out predicament, but in 0:09:01.316 --> 0:09:07.556 the language of m and so then it becomes everything 0:09:07.636 --> 0:09:09.796 kind of becomes like tongue in cheek an absurd and 0:09:09.876 --> 0:09:15.716 you kind of have this like Beckett, like feeling well, 0:09:15.716 --> 0:09:19.436 thanks so much for meeting us today. That's what's what's 0:09:19.476 --> 0:09:23.116 going on tonight? What are you up to? Oh um? 0:09:24.036 --> 0:09:28.876 I have like a deadline. I'm asking because we're kind 0:09:28.916 --> 0:09:32.316 of trying to get invited to a dinner party, because 0:09:32.716 --> 0:09:34.516 it's a place where you can genuinely get to know 0:09:34.676 --> 0:09:37.276 people instead of just being tourists. You know, I would 0:09:37.356 --> 0:09:39.596 love that, but I have like a Chihuahua who is 0:09:40.236 --> 0:09:43.676 aggressive towards the stranger dogs, but it would just over 0:09:44.276 --> 0:09:49.116 overwhelm him. I think, Okay, I'm sorry, like it seems rude. 0:09:49.116 --> 0:09:53.276 I know everyone Canadians are nice, but apparently they're no. 0:09:53.396 --> 0:09:56.156 But if you bring people by dogs going to bite someone, okay, 0:09:56.196 --> 0:09:57.556 that would not be a good outcome. But you have 0:09:57.596 --> 0:10:04.476 healthcare for those people. What is your dog's name, Hamlet. 0:10:11.516 --> 0:10:14.076 I don't spend as much time thinking about how I'm 0:10:14.116 --> 0:10:17.116 going to die alone when I'm traveling, but I get 0:10:17.116 --> 0:10:19.436 to travel with someone I love. Oh see, I love 0:10:19.476 --> 0:10:21.716 you too, and also we get to eat as much 0:10:21.756 --> 0:10:25.436 everything there. I love you too. Mine's a lot of 0:10:25.476 --> 0:10:29.236 therapy bills behind that you're so white. I love it. 0:10:29.356 --> 0:10:31.756 It's nice. It's nice to kind of it is nice 0:10:31.756 --> 0:10:35.796 to travel with. Buddy. This is Arion Saint Laurent. Thank you. 0:10:37.196 --> 0:10:41.836 When my last radio show ended fairly abruptly, I was 0:10:41.836 --> 0:10:44.076 a little concerned about your mental health. Yeah I was. 0:10:44.276 --> 0:10:47.436 I was a little bit lost. You know. I went 0:10:47.516 --> 0:10:51.156 from having this rad show where I spoke with Nilde 0:10:51.196 --> 0:10:55.996 Grass Tyson and Scarlett Johansson to my Deli guy being 0:10:56.396 --> 0:10:59.876 the only person I spoke to on any given day. Yeah, 0:10:59.916 --> 0:11:03.036 but now at this show, trying to get myself back 0:11:03.036 --> 0:11:06.436 out there, Dude, isn't exciting. Let's play a game, like, 0:11:06.556 --> 0:11:09.036 let's just name what comes to mind when we think 0:11:09.196 --> 0:11:14.796 of Montreal. I definitely think of poutine, of course, Letter Cohen, 0:11:15.836 --> 0:11:19.796 I think you guys, they're everywhere. There is just that 0:11:19.916 --> 0:11:22.676 kind of French like undercount where you're like, la la, 0:11:23.156 --> 0:11:26.276 What is this like an eighties perfume commercial? Please never 0:11:26.356 --> 0:11:29.796 say that to a woman here. I want her to 0:11:29.836 --> 0:11:47.756 say it to me. I can never remember who founded Montreal, 0:11:48.236 --> 0:11:51.476 whether it was Samuel de Champlain or Jacquet, but what 0:11:51.556 --> 0:11:55.316 a fucking idiot like I mean, we're only a six 0:11:55.396 --> 0:12:01.076 hour drive from New York that's comedian writer actress Trana Winter. 0:12:02.116 --> 0:12:05.036 We're at a restaurant called Lawrence, which is a fitting name. 0:12:05.636 --> 0:12:07.636 If this place was a human, it'd be that fancy 0:12:07.676 --> 0:12:12.116 kid who dresses like a carefree hemian Lawrence. I try 0:12:12.236 --> 0:12:15.476 and fail to tuck a napkin into my cashmere turtleneck. 0:12:15.916 --> 0:12:20.036 Montreal winters are not glamorous. It's really hard to be glamorous. 0:12:20.236 --> 0:12:23.876 Sorry to be glamorous, like crampons on your boots. Yeah, oh, 0:12:23.956 --> 0:12:28.756 here we go, let's cheers. What do you say, salteea? 0:12:30.396 --> 0:12:35.356 But I love living here. Yeah. Here. It's the last 0:12:35.396 --> 0:12:42.396 remaining affordable North American metropolis. Um. I live in a 0:12:42.476 --> 0:12:45.476 one bedroom apartment like smack in the middle of everything, 0:12:45.636 --> 0:12:49.076 and it's six hundred dollars a month six hundred Canadian 0:12:49.436 --> 0:12:53.716 so that's like four eighty Americans. Yeah. The other thing 0:12:53.716 --> 0:12:56.556 that I love about it is just there's just this 0:12:56.716 --> 0:13:00.916 sexy vibe and Montreal this pulse, this energy. But I 0:13:00.996 --> 0:13:04.476 don't fully know how to articulate, but it's here. I've 0:13:04.476 --> 0:13:07.036 been hornys it's the minute I live. There is this 0:13:07.156 --> 0:13:10.756 sensuality to it, There is this kind of verve, and 0:13:10.836 --> 0:13:13.236 I don't I just think like, oh, it's European, which 0:13:13.276 --> 0:13:16.036 is my catchall term for any kind of these. That's 0:13:16.276 --> 0:13:18.716 part of it. I think part of it too is 0:13:18.756 --> 0:13:22.196 just it is a diverse city, you know, but I 0:13:22.196 --> 0:13:25.036 don't think that's special anymore. That's sort of seems to 0:13:25.436 --> 0:13:27.956 is that when I travel alone as a black woman, 0:13:28.196 --> 0:13:31.316 I feel like that's something that I notice right away 0:13:31.316 --> 0:13:33.436 if I feel comfortable or not right, and there are 0:13:33.436 --> 0:13:37.116 still some places where I just don't right for sure 0:13:37.196 --> 0:13:40.196 at all. Thank you on top you have a little 0:13:40.236 --> 0:13:43.396 salad of fresh hurricane Billy gals and coins. That's my 0:13:43.476 --> 0:13:47.476 renated enjoying thank you just looks so good. Well, the 0:13:47.516 --> 0:13:49.636 things that I like about it, though, I feel like 0:13:49.636 --> 0:13:54.356 you're trying here, Like there's a cultural identity that people 0:13:54.356 --> 0:13:57.236 are not willing to just roll over and let things happen. Yeah, 0:13:57.276 --> 0:13:59.756 that's true, especially on the French side. French side is 0:13:59.876 --> 0:14:04.156 very much about protecting their culture. Actually just started to 0:14:04.356 --> 0:14:07.596 do comedy in French because I am bilingual. Is there 0:14:07.596 --> 0:14:10.676 different things that French people find funny? In Quebec Actually 0:14:10.716 --> 0:14:15.396 there's something called Le Calm, which is comedy school. Basically. Okay, 0:14:15.876 --> 0:14:20.516 like nine percent of French or Francophone comedians in Quebec 0:14:20.876 --> 0:14:24.236 have gone through this school class one is like did 0:14:24.276 --> 0:14:27.476 you ever notice, right, yeah, freshman year, and so there 0:14:27.556 --> 0:14:30.916 is kind of like this uniformity in terms of comedy style. 0:14:31.516 --> 0:14:35.836 So also out of necessity, there is this Quebec star system, 0:14:35.836 --> 0:14:39.996 like Quebec has its own Hollywood that doesn't exist anywhere 0:14:39.996 --> 0:14:42.876 else because it can't exist anywhere else, it doesn't translate. 0:14:43.316 --> 0:14:45.876 But now that I've started performing in French, it's like, 0:14:45.956 --> 0:14:48.836 that's become my new dream. You're gonna be a part of, 0:14:48.876 --> 0:14:52.956 like the Quebec Star system. I'm like that. My dream 0:14:52.996 --> 0:14:54.876 has always been to make it just so I can 0:14:54.916 --> 0:14:57.836 be a hasban. What's it called if you never did 0:14:57.836 --> 0:15:00.276 anything to be washed up? I never was, like I 0:15:00.676 --> 0:15:14.916 never Yeah, you're not as you're never gu So I 0:15:14.956 --> 0:15:19.756 got divorced five years ago and I met my ex 0:15:19.836 --> 0:15:23.036 husband on an internet comic book forum in the late nineties. Wow, 0:15:23.316 --> 0:15:24.796 and he was like my best friend and he was 0:15:24.876 --> 0:15:27.116 part of my memory and my heart and I lost 0:15:27.156 --> 0:15:31.116 that and I lost all of my confidence. I have 0:15:31.196 --> 0:15:33.956 not been on a date or been in a relationship 0:15:33.996 --> 0:15:38.716 since then. I've had sex once, no, twice twice in 0:15:38.756 --> 0:15:42.316 the past four years. Oh really, Yeah, it's been very 0:15:42.356 --> 0:15:45.916 difficult to admit to myself that, like I'm interested now 0:15:47.356 --> 0:15:50.316 in being with someone in a real way again, like 0:15:50.396 --> 0:15:52.956 sharing my life with them. You're afraid to be We 0:15:53.076 --> 0:15:56.276 think we all are vulnerable. Yeah, I don't have too vulnerability. 0:15:57.076 --> 0:15:59.476 I've known you for a while and we've pooped around 0:15:59.476 --> 0:16:01.236 and traveled a lot, like you do have an appetite 0:16:01.236 --> 0:16:03.956 for just like some freewheel and love through. I was 0:16:03.956 --> 0:16:08.356 sad a lot whatever Jim Hudson in the seventies. Why 0:16:08.356 --> 0:16:11.996 do you want to get laid? But also you're such 0:16:12.036 --> 0:16:14.596 a I don't know, you have such a nurturing instinct 0:16:14.596 --> 0:16:16.756 and you're you're I hear you're one. I don't know. 0:16:16.956 --> 0:16:20.436 I'm not there now of that instinct because I don't 0:16:20.476 --> 0:16:23.676 want to take care of man. And it sucks that 0:16:23.796 --> 0:16:25.596 the result of that is that I might have to 0:16:25.636 --> 0:16:28.636 be alone because that bob is the thought of being 0:16:28.676 --> 0:16:31.956 alone bother you though, no me either. It doesn't bother me. 0:16:31.996 --> 0:16:33.596 It's only like when I want to get late and 0:16:33.636 --> 0:16:35.196 I can't. I don't know how people do it. It 0:16:35.236 --> 0:16:39.356 bothers me. It bothers me, it does yeah, um super 0:16:39.396 --> 0:16:42.396 in the cuddling, I like I like I like cooking 0:16:42.436 --> 0:16:46.836 breakfast half naked like that, I would really take care 0:16:46.876 --> 0:16:53.756 of my like, nah, huddling affection. No, how's your drink. 0:16:54.196 --> 0:16:58.676 That's great, got some gin and some lime and some booze. 0:16:58.876 --> 0:17:01.996 It's good. It looks like I got colder outside in 0:17:02.036 --> 0:17:05.196 the time we were eating. I'm a little scared. Yeah, 0:17:05.316 --> 0:17:07.956 but you know Montreal, like even in like the most 0:17:07.996 --> 0:17:12.036 insane winter weather, you can always count on one asshole 0:17:12.156 --> 0:17:16.476 to be on their bike, still going. I'm telling you, 0:17:16.596 --> 0:17:21.076 in a blizzard, in a blizzard in the weather, let's 0:17:21.116 --> 0:17:24.196 be career street sweepers here, Like there's so much snow 0:17:24.356 --> 0:17:28.476 so long. Absolutely, and as a warning before the plows come, 0:17:28.756 --> 0:17:32.556 they have these toe chucks driving around blaring this insane siren. 0:17:32.796 --> 0:17:36.516 Oh it's not a cop siren, it's not a fire truck, 0:17:36.836 --> 0:17:40.476 it's its own unit. It's a plows Far the fuck 0:17:40.556 --> 0:17:44.076 out of your siren. So what are you doing this weekend? 0:17:44.116 --> 0:17:48.756 What are the plans? Um? I mean, my weekends are 0:17:48.796 --> 0:17:50.796 always kind of up in the air. I'm as you know, 0:17:50.836 --> 0:17:54.676 I'm very noncommittal a party to go to. You're looking 0:17:54.716 --> 0:17:59.316 for a dinner party? I mean, I like you guys, 0:18:01.236 --> 0:18:03.876 Let's play it by ear. Is that the name of 0:18:03.876 --> 0:18:12.116 your next comedy album? Maybe? Maybe? Yeah? Oh for two 0:18:12.156 --> 0:18:14.996 in our dinner party search, or rather point five for 0:18:15.116 --> 0:18:18.916 two since China did say maybe. Back at our lodgings, 0:18:18.956 --> 0:18:21.756 we brush our teeth, tuck ourselves in, and uploads like 0:18:21.916 --> 0:18:26.396 photos to Instagram. Eventually I drift off to sleep with 0:18:26.476 --> 0:18:29.196 dreams of six hundred dollars rent going through my head. 0:18:48.996 --> 0:18:55.356 Oh my god, let's get coffee. Whoa that is a style. 0:18:55.836 --> 0:18:59.516 Guy's got like a slicked back, moosed ponytail. I mean 0:18:59.556 --> 0:19:02.836 it is morning, and I'm surprisingly still horny for a 0:19:02.956 --> 0:19:12.716 rontreal mosaba suble years. All right, you show me up. 0:19:12.796 --> 0:19:14.556 You speak French, I don't May I have one of 0:19:14.556 --> 0:19:18.196 these with the feta. Yeah, Rusty and I will have 0:19:18.316 --> 0:19:25.436 a latte in your largest to go cup. So today 0:19:25.956 --> 0:19:27.716 we're gonna go to the Jean to Lawn market, this 0:19:27.836 --> 0:19:31.036 food market with this woman Massam who's a food blogger, 0:19:31.156 --> 0:19:32.916 because you know, we gotta get our food for one 0:19:32.956 --> 0:19:35.316 one gotta get it some snacks. But I was thinking 0:19:35.836 --> 0:19:38.276 to get started, we should go to Leonard Cohen's home 0:19:38.316 --> 0:19:40.836 because he's this city's like favorite son. Is it a 0:19:40.876 --> 0:19:42.876 museum now or that he's dead or is it just 0:19:42.956 --> 0:19:45.276 his house. It's not a museum, and it's kind of 0:19:45.316 --> 0:19:47.556 I'm not even one hundred percent positive where it is. 0:19:47.596 --> 0:19:49.716 It's like, I know it's on this park to Portugal. 0:19:51.076 --> 0:19:52.476 I don't know. I just think there might be a 0:19:52.476 --> 0:19:54.716 clue for me up there. Yeah. I mean, you have 0:19:54.756 --> 0:19:57.036 to go with your heart, go where your heart leads you. 0:19:57.396 --> 0:20:00.156 My heart is leading me to get a massage on 0:20:00.316 --> 0:20:03.196 a boat, really, because I think it gets you into 0:20:03.396 --> 0:20:06.156 the spirit of well, I don't know. I was gonna 0:20:06.156 --> 0:20:07.836 bullshit something about how it gets you into the spirit 0:20:07.836 --> 0:20:09.676 of the city, but it's just entirely selfish and I 0:20:09.716 --> 0:20:12.876 like feeling good. All right, Well, I'm just gonna take off. 0:20:12.916 --> 0:20:16.036 I guess I feel weird abandoning you at this stage 0:20:16.036 --> 0:20:18.556 of the game. Look, we're both adults. I'm gonna let 0:20:18.556 --> 0:20:20.676 you go stand outside, let her Cohen's house like a creep, 0:20:20.756 --> 0:20:23.996 and I'm gonna go get a massage, all right, Helena, 0:20:24.076 --> 0:20:26.796 how goes? And if you get arrested, I'll bail you out. 0:20:27.316 --> 0:20:40.276 Thank you. Excuse me, I'm looking for Leonard Cohen's house. 0:20:41.556 --> 0:20:53.956 A Cohen I'm looking for. Excuse me? Is it your 0:20:53.996 --> 0:20:58.156 first time here? Wonderful, well, welcome, very excited to see 0:20:58.236 --> 0:21:00.356 what a spa on a river has to offer. And 0:21:00.396 --> 0:21:04.396 it's so wonderful. I think it's like parked to Portugal 0:21:04.636 --> 0:21:07.036 or something. Oh yeah, you just have to like keep 0:21:07.076 --> 0:21:09.596 walking a little bit, turned right and up a few 0:21:09.636 --> 0:21:11.516 blocks and me get all right. But there's not like 0:21:11.516 --> 0:21:14.476 a sign or anything that says that's where I used 0:21:14.476 --> 0:21:21.636 to live. No, no, no, okay, it's fucking freezing out here. 0:21:23.476 --> 0:21:26.996 This is one of our saunas Lord of ceiling windows. 0:21:26.996 --> 0:21:30.556 Looking over the port. This is unreal jacouzy hot tubs 0:21:30.676 --> 0:21:34.436 we call them ba. I cannot get over this. And 0:21:34.516 --> 0:21:38.316 this is filled with eucalyptus. Normally I want to live 0:21:38.356 --> 0:21:40.596 in this. You're gonna head down to the first stack, 0:21:40.676 --> 0:21:45.156 can go for your musage. I'm ready. You're in the bathtub. 0:21:45.996 --> 0:21:56.436 Ah fuck, Oh my goodness. You're a very gentle touch. 0:21:57.916 --> 0:22:00.596 I'm going through the scar tissue, because we have scar 0:22:00.636 --> 0:22:06.716 tissue that builds up in muscles that are oversolicited. You 0:22:06.836 --> 0:22:08.756 use your body in different ways in such a treme 0:22:08.796 --> 0:22:12.196 tempers and so I'm wondering if that contributes to you 0:22:12.316 --> 0:22:16.156 seeing certain types of ailments are over and over again, 0:22:16.436 --> 0:22:20.116 or what I see a lot of is definitely low 0:22:20.156 --> 0:22:24.876 back and more low back tension which crawls up front 0:22:24.916 --> 0:22:28.396 because we're huddled, you know, we're trying to keep ourselves warm, 0:22:28.396 --> 0:22:32.396 We're trying to keep centered so that we can navigate 0:22:32.436 --> 0:22:34.516 the ice and the snow and the slush and the 0:22:34.556 --> 0:22:37.476 puddles and the roads. It's really the march of the 0:22:37.476 --> 0:22:39.356 penguins in the winter here, I mean, and you you're 0:22:39.356 --> 0:22:40.636 going to see that today, and your guys are going 0:22:40.676 --> 0:22:42.796 to giggle to yourselves and you say, yeah, there's the penguins. Yeah, 0:22:42.796 --> 0:22:44.956 I see them, you know. And it's because we're so 0:22:44.996 --> 0:22:55.236 afraid to fall like a bird on the wire, like 0:22:55.356 --> 0:23:00.316 a drunk in the mid night choir. I have tried 0:23:01.716 --> 0:23:12.556 in my way to be free. Thank you. Well, this 0:23:12.636 --> 0:23:22.596 is it? Just a gray Stone one two three triplex, 0:23:24.876 --> 0:23:30.036 pretty non the script, you know, he's sang about religion 0:23:30.156 --> 0:23:36.396 and sex and poets and history, and it's weird just 0:23:36.516 --> 0:23:40.316 to see a gray house on a little park with 0:23:40.396 --> 0:23:49.396 a Honda Civic parked out front of it. I'm not 0:23:49.476 --> 0:23:52.356 really sure why I thought it was so important to 0:23:52.436 --> 0:24:02.996 come here. All right, it's icy, it's cold, and I 0:24:03.036 --> 0:24:10.716 think that's the bigel place he would go to. It's 0:24:10.796 --> 0:24:15.596 kind of strange to realize how powerful and healing touch 0:24:15.676 --> 0:24:19.516 can be because I don't I don't date, I don't 0:24:19.596 --> 0:24:23.156 kind of like engage in that way anymore. And so 0:24:25.116 --> 0:24:28.556 I was alone for thirteen years after my divorce and 0:24:28.676 --> 0:24:31.836 I met I met someone. What I came to understand 0:24:31.916 --> 0:24:35.956 about myself is what stops me from dating is how 0:24:35.996 --> 0:24:39.556 well can I hide my wounds? Right? So, my you know, 0:24:39.596 --> 0:24:42.756 current partner and I we decided are the philosophy of 0:24:42.756 --> 0:24:47.516 our relationship is no masks, full disclosure. So I think 0:24:47.556 --> 0:24:50.876 it's about really deciding to have to have that level 0:24:50.876 --> 0:24:53.036 of honesty within yourself and the trusting. But when you've 0:24:53.036 --> 0:25:00.756 had trauma, trust is so fragile. Yeah. So, so one 0:25:00.796 --> 0:25:05.596 of my my big trauma is that my mom left. 0:25:07.996 --> 0:25:10.316 She she dropped us off at my grandparents' house for 0:25:10.356 --> 0:25:15.196 a weekend and then never came back. And the person 0:25:15.236 --> 0:25:18.036 who's supposed to love you and conditionally leaves, and that 0:25:18.116 --> 0:25:24.196 will mess you up well because you're gonna always asking 0:25:24.196 --> 0:25:27.396 yourself what did I do wrong? Right? And will I 0:25:27.436 --> 0:25:29.676 do something wrong again? But what will I do to 0:25:29.716 --> 0:25:33.836 make someone leave? Because the assumption is that somebody will 0:25:33.876 --> 0:25:41.036 always leave a lot of tension in your calves. Yeah, 0:25:41.036 --> 0:25:45.036 but you spoke of your herniated disks so often warm 0:25:45.116 --> 0:25:46.476 that up for you. So when you go out and 0:25:46.556 --> 0:25:49.556 do the March of the Penguins, you feel a little 0:25:49.636 --> 0:25:55.116 more ease in your body. Thank you, Lujenie. What are 0:25:55.156 --> 0:25:58.796 you up to this weekend? Because you know Brendon and 0:25:58.836 --> 0:26:01.756 I are in town and we're kind of looking for 0:26:01.956 --> 0:26:04.876 dinner parties. He's making me ask everyone if we can 0:26:05.276 --> 0:26:08.036 eat at their house. Basically, Oh, well, that's unfortunate. I 0:26:08.076 --> 0:26:10.196 would love to normally have to meet at my house. However, 0:26:10.276 --> 0:26:20.036 I am going on from back. Um, could I just 0:26:20.076 --> 0:26:25.196 get a what would you order? Bagel? Bagel with locks? Ye? 0:26:25.356 --> 0:26:32.556 Mercy visiting town? How do you know? I'm visiting? Guidebooks? 0:26:32.596 --> 0:26:35.476 Kind of a giveaway? Let me guess. Larry Cohen's house. 0:26:36.876 --> 0:26:39.676 It doesn't even have a plaque. I just feel like 0:26:39.716 --> 0:26:41.356 if that was in America, there would be there would 0:26:41.356 --> 0:26:44.156 be an amusement park around, like a Suzanne roller coaster, 0:26:44.476 --> 0:26:48.356 like a Leonard Wood. Yeah, they would be selling like 0:26:48.476 --> 0:26:52.276 my blue raincoats or something for toddler's right. Maybe that's 0:26:52.276 --> 0:26:54.596 a good idea an get out on that. Yeah, I'm Brendon. 0:26:54.636 --> 0:26:56.756
