Previous Episode
S2/E8 - Roger Watts is wondering how you put this thing on
Holy doodle! Jason welcomes one of his oldest & longest-suffering pals for a nostalgia-soaked ramble about high school airbands, role-playing games, pretty good nosebleeds, trying to be Leonard Cohen, & being robbed blind by John Cobra. Roger not only bravely shares some of his high school-era poetry, he turns the table & shares some of Jason's as well. Say goodbye to boring lunch hours: for athletes & weaklings alike this episode is a must. Note: the 'Tarquin' that Jason & Roger mention is a reference to 27th Street Theatre's lavish 1988 production of "Dr Felix Tarquin's Travelling Show of Medicine and Wonderments," which was directed by the genius behind WL Seaton Secondary's drama program, Mr Dave 'Brot' Brotsky; the 432 that Roger refers to (& wrote for) was a satirical bi-weekly publication of the University of British Columbia Science Undergraduate Society. Many thanks to Roger for his time & quips, Wayne Emde for the artwork, Joe Emde for help with the intro, & the deluxe DJ Max in Tokyo for the fab music.
