73. Thespian Dog

Join KJ for a first hand reminiscence from his recent stage work. We also cover a bundle of great listener mail, RJ’s Gold Standard TV series viewing recommendations, a modestly successful bit of media plagiarism from PJ, and even a baseless accusation that the CBC is stealing our ideas—and this is just the “cultural” part of Episode 73. There’s also a drainage-oscopy, a Tale From the Shuttle (the best one of two!), and another sure-fire money making scheme. It just goes from one fun thing to another!

Drainage-oscopy

The dark area was cut through with a water jet by the drainage specialist. The brighter material here is tree root. It will grow in again over the course of the next one to three years at which point we’ll dig down to the sump for a more permanent fix.

Locating the drainage scope. The apprentice was just learning.
