Hot Nana's eyes are burning and the Province is in a State of Emergency.

If you wanna have access to a menu of hundreds of beer, ya gotta check out The Sugar Bowl.

PodGuy enters into the dark bowels of Craig’s List and  rents a bike. Have you ever had a bike transform into a slide?

The Pod Couple kicks off this riveting show gushing over a concert and spinning round and round, the ride to the show where Pod Guy is in the back seat desperately wanting to be a back seat driver, but he is feuding with the driver so his silence is maintained. The ride to the show - it’s hard to be a back seat driver when you’re feuding with the driver. What do you do? PodGuy’s getting whipped around like a rag doll.

This transitions into a story from PodGuy about a Biker and the Biker behaviour. 

PodGuy recounts an evening with his family and the coining of his new favourite term. 

They wrap with a discussion about AI Sex Robots and Pod Guy potentially going deep, deep undercover.

Very special guest, Adrienne, joins the Pod Couple to talk about the last leg of the Carolla Drinks Bar Crawl in Seattle. 

The group talks about PodGal being voted out, a mantra review, a SHOUT OUT to the lovely Lynette Carolla, a bar review, the lackeys, and Dr. Drew. It seems that the group (well Adrienne and Shelly) anyway, would love to be lackeys for a summer!!!

They then talk about Canada's 150th birthday and how Adrienne spent July 4.....it's awesome!!  Can you say DERBY - and can we (someone) make her a ribbon

From there the chat about FORKS, WA, reoccurring dreams.

There's an update on the porch hole.

Finally, they talk about a weird luncheon meat.

And a SHOUT OUT to the CLALLAM COUNTY SHERIFF's office for listening in!

The Pod Couple says good bye to Adrienne and then they call DAVID from Home Office in Belltown, Seattle. The Pod Couple met him - he was GREAT - so helpful....can you say spicy sausage sandwich, awesome IPA and a great neighbourhood tavern. The Home Office saved the day on a number of occasions - thank god they were able to do some printing AND try on leather jackets!

THANKS David and The Home Office. See you when we are next in Belltown.

Kevin Kane (The Grapes of Wrath) and Bryan Potvin (The Northern Pikes) join the Pod Couple to talk about their collaboration as a duo, the building of an album (side 1 and side 2), their vision for the future, hotel names (take that you over-zealous groupie!), and so much more.

The show kicks off with the memory making moment of the Pod Couple’s first meeting with Kevin and Bryan.   

From there, Kevin and Bryan settle in to talk about the making of their self-titled album and how they transitioned from creating and performing music with bands to becoming a duo. The pair works so well together; Bryan sums it up best with his comment about their musical hearts being made of similar stuff.  A SHOUT OUT to Darryl Neudorf for the work he did with Kevin and Bryan on their album. There is interesting discussion about the Danish documentary ‘The Five Obstructions’ and how similar concepts were utilized in the making of side 2 of their album-very interesting stuff.

There is chat about remakes, the past being comforting, David Hasselhoff, Teletubbies, Kung Fury, a Tegan and Sara connection, the side of a van coming to life, reoccurring dreams, and the hotel names that the guys used back in the day.

Kevin and Bryan play a round of Dead or Alive, which includes interesting stories about Kansas, short shorts, Rick James, Prince AND a new catch phrase ‘on a scale of one to all of it’.

A HUGE thank you to Kevin and Bryan for taking time out of their busy schedule to sit down with the Pod Couple. PLEASE check out their new work and revisit the music from the Grapes of Wrath and The Northern Pikes. If you get a chance, you must see them live.

THANK You for allowing us to use your song ‘Best of times’ for our intro and extro.

Upcoming events:

  • - Shaun Majumber’s The Gathering Tour in Newfoundland http://thegatheringburlington.com/tour/
  • - The Northern Pikes 33rd Anniversary of the Big Blue Sky Tour (with Kevin Kane) (The Pod Couple already have their tickets for Victoria).
  • - 2018 – new record (can’t wait)

A missing slab of wood has potential as a mote or pit for unwanted visitors. Talk of that missing piece of wood leads into a discussion about recent cul-de-sac drama  - thank god the SWAT chose the driveway and not the stairs!

Dougems then recounts a scary late night home experience. It wasn't an official segment, but it definitely begs the question - what would YOU do?

From there, the pod copule talks about their Seattle experience: moving forward one step er' i mean sentence at a time proved to be fatal.....what, Podgal, why didn't you read the part about the time limit to get to the elevator!!! it's one thing to get into the building, but a whole different story (er sentence anyway!) to get up to the room. 

The Pod Couple give a SHOUT OUT to Belltown Seattle - they loved the neighborhood.  

PodGuy has been doing a fair bit of travelling lately and ends up having a few bathroom stories  which involve a beautiful cleansing experience, an alleged soulless boy (you'll learn a tip do recognize such), a 5 digit bathroom code, and a luxury dump!

Another SHOUT OUT - this time to David at the Home Office in Belltown. He was AWESOME as was his very eclectic store!

Finally, they get to the Seattle Bar Crawl. A Shout Out to all of the new friends that they made and to the awesome folks from Carolla Drinks and Carolla Digitial (the pirate ship) - they were awesome.

The next day, after over 24 hours of not eating, they find themselves in the Pride Parade, witness to the AMAZING Spiderman, at the Chihuly Glass exhibit and then at the Pride apres parade party on the edge of the taunting fountain....it's alot of fun. And did we say purple penis!

Seattle, until we meet again, thanks for a most excellent time! xo
