  1. New Haven!?!? Tell us more

  2. That’ 6:30 pm for the West….

  3. I won’t miss. I may take a peek to the right wing TV to see some of them close to crying.

    I just finished watching your show from today and have a couple of comments.
    That CKOI show was meant for people in Québec. Those guys are very popular and as I can see, some of the best jokes were completely missed by Americans.
    The point was to make fun of that low life and they succeeded. Obama has a huge popularity in Québec and making fun of one of his republican opponents was likely to please the audience.

    These guys are hot in Québec and have a world reputation as the very best prankster. They’ve been at CKOI FM for close to 10 years. They are popular comedians which a huge audience.

    Some of the Questions and answers and my comments below

    P: Oh, very good. We should go hunting together.
    A: Exactly, we could try go hunting by helicopter like you did. I never did that. Like we say in French, on pourrait tuer des bébé phoques, aussi.

    Americans are very upset about the yearly seal hunt, this was a comment about the hypocrisy of Americans bitching about Canadians hunting seals.

    A: You know my wife is a popular singer and a former top model and she’s so hot in bed. She even wrote a song for you.
    P: Oh my goodness, I didn’t know that.
    A: Yes, in French it’s called de rouge a lèvre sur une cochonne, or if you prefer in English, Joe the Plumber…it’s his life, Joe the Plumber.

    The French part translates to “red lipstick on a slut”

    A: I just want to be sure. That phenomenon Joe the Plumber. That’s not your husband, right?

    P: That’s not my husband but he’s a normal American who just works hard and doesn’t want government to take his money.

    A: Yes, yes, I understand we have the equivalent of Joe the Plumber in France. It’s called Marcel, the guy with bread under his armpit.

    A few years back there was a very popular sitcom “La petite vie” where a family member (cousin or brother in law) from France was visiting in Québec.
    The guy was the kind of moron that you would think can’t exist. He always
    had a french bread under his armpit wherever he went.

  4. Is the election coverage in addition to an afternoon show or is that off for the day?

  5. McCain v Palin
