 I repeat, this is not a test.  

3
00:00:06,406 --> 00:00:10,310
 Roger has been short-changed,  
      stiffed, bamboozled,      

4
00:00:10,377 --> 00:00:13,446
     hood-winked, greased,      
       conned, swindled.

00:00:21,988 --> 00:00:25,392
       Is that a new song       
      by Big Makwa? Meh'.       

10
00:00:25,425 --> 00:00:27,093

11
00:00:27,127 --> 00:00:29,329
           to do with           
     this email Roger sent.     

12
00:00:31,164 --> 00:00:33,767
 The one with the subject line  
      that says, "I quit?"      

13
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:35,001
        Yeah, that one.

     Okay, let me respond,

       They use salt from       
      the Atlantic Ocean.       

25
00:01:11,337 --> 00:01:14,474
   Not now. We have a crisis.

        Uh, next caller.        

86
00:03:30,143 --> 00:03:34,314
    Why would Roger just up     
      and leave like that?      

87
00:03:34,347 --> 00:03:37,650
 Ooh, I know. Maybe the answer  
to why he left is in this email 

88
00:03:37,684 --> 00:03:40,353
          he sent with

     a "do not read" is he?     

102

   Oh, this just in, Crystal,   
 not everyone can get the city  

142
00:06:06,099 --> 00:06:08,835
    buzzing like Micky Fly.     

143
00:06:08,901 --> 00:06:10,837
           (buzzing)            

144
00:06:10,903 --> 00:06:15,908
        (both laughing)         

145
00:06:20,113 --> 00:06:21,748
      It's not that funny.      

146
00:06:22,949 --> 00:06:23,950
        It's not funny?         

147
00:06:23,983 --> 00:06:25,351
            Crystal:            
         Wait a second.         

148
00:06:25,418 --> 00:06:29,355
 You didn't think "Buzzin' like 
     Micky Fly" was funny?      

149
00:06:29,422 --> 00:06:31,290
  You know how long it took me  
     to perfect this laugh?     

150
00:06:31,324 --> 00:06:32,291
             Years.             

151
00:06:32,325 --> 00:06:33,826
         Fuckin' years.         

152
00:06:33,860 --> 00:06:38,097
    You don't learn to laugh    
like this in radio school, guy. 

153
00:06:38,131 --> 00:06:39,866
     Let's hear your laugh,     
          traffic boy.          

154
00:06:39,932 --> 00:06:40,867
             Yeah.              

155
00:06:40,933 --> 00:06:42,702
            Can you             
      say something funny?      

156
00:06:42,769 --> 00:06:45,171
         This guy needs         
           a lead-in.           

157
00:06:45,204 --> 00:06:46,939
           Okay, man.           

158
00:06:46,973 --> 00:06:49,175
      No, I don't. Watch.       

159
00:06:49,208 --> 00:06:51,344
           I'll laugh           
        out of the blue.        

160
00:06:51,377 --> 00:06:55,515
      (laughing awkwardly)      

161
00:06:56,549 --> 00:06:59,285
        Let me give you         
       some free advice.        

162
00:06:59,318 --> 00:07:03,990
   I didn't become Winnipeg's   
 top laugher by fucking around. 

163
00:07:04,023 --> 00:07:05,691
      Yeah, pay attention.      

164
00:07:05,725 --> 00:07:08,995
        My laugh used to        
      be a wild stallion,       

165
00:07:09,028 --> 00:07:11,497
          'til I threw          
         a lasso on it.         

166
00:07:11,531 --> 00:07:16,002
           I tamed it           
      and combed its mane.      

167
00:07:16,035 --> 00:07:19,572
        Now, it will do         
   what I say when I say it.    

168
00:07:19,639 --> 00:07:23,075
          Here, girl.           
          (whistling)           

169
00:07:23,142 --> 00:07:24,977
       Ah, here it comes.       

170
00:07:25,011 --> 00:07:26,746
     Just over the horizon.     

171
00:07:26,813 --> 00:07:30,817
           (laughing)           

172
00:07:32,151 --> 00:07:34,086
          (whinnying)           

173
00:07:34,153 --> 00:07:35,688
           (shushing)           

174
00:07:35,721 --> 00:07:37,323
              Wow.              

175
00:07:37,356 --> 00:07:41,394
         Kid, you gotta         
      control your laugh,       

176
00:07:41,427 --> 00:07:45,665
         or your laugh          
       will control you.        

177
00:07:50,102 --> 00:07:52,605
          (chuckling)           

178
00:07:52,672 --> 00:07:54,774
           All right.           
      Now, get on the air.      

179
00:07:54,841 --> 00:07:56,409
     There's an umbrella in     
     the middle of Portage      

180
00:07:56,442 --> 00:07:58,678
         and traffic's          
       at a stand-still.        

181
00:07:58,711 --> 00:08:01,848
    Paul: All right, caller,    
       you're on the air!       

182
00:08:01,881 --> 00:08:04,016
            Gramps:             
    Slow the fuck down, boy,    

183
00:08:04,050 --> 00:08:06,185
  and stop breathing so heavy.  

184
00:08:06,219 --> 00:08:08,354
           (sighing)            
   What do you want, Gramps?!   

185
00:08:08,387 --> 00:08:10,289
            Gramps:             
   Oh, I lost a transmission    

186
00:08:10,356 --> 00:08:12,191
 driving over an umbrella once. 

187
00:08:12,225 --> 00:08:14,627
         Boy, it still          
         pisses me off.         

188
00:08:14,694 --> 00:08:16,896
  You gotta let that go, man.   

189
00:08:16,929 --> 00:08:18,798
            Gramps:             
     Oh, just keep reading.     

190
00:08:18,865 --> 00:08:21,133
      All the elders want       
      to know how it ends.      

191
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,069
   Well, leave me alone, den!   

192
00:08:23,102 --> 00:08:24,904
         Wait a minute.         

193
00:08:24,937 --> 00:08:27,440
        This looks like         
          a good part.          

194
00:08:27,473 --> 00:08:28,875
         This could be          
         the end of me.         

195
00:08:28,908 --> 00:08:31,110
             Roger!             
      Roger, get in here!       

196
00:08:31,143 --> 00:08:33,246
             Hurry!             
   Yeah, I'll call you back.    

197
00:08:33,279 --> 00:08:35,715
           What's up?           
       Another umbrella?        

198
00:08:35,748 --> 00:08:37,383
       - No, it's Micky!        
       - (Micky laughing)       

199
00:08:37,416 --> 00:08:39,752
He just started laughing at one 
        of his own jokes        

200
00:08:39,785 --> 00:08:42,255
       and now he just...       
         he can't stop.         

201
00:08:42,288 --> 00:08:45,658
           (laughing)           
            I can't!            

202
00:08:45,725 --> 00:08:47,226
           (laughing)           

203
00:08:47,260 --> 00:08:50,630
          A laugh flu.          
      I've heard of that!       

204
00:08:50,663 --> 00:08:52,598
           Some DJs,            
      they never come out.      

205
00:08:52,632 --> 00:08:54,600
       Micky (voiceover):       
You gotta control your laugh... 

206
00:08:54,634 --> 00:08:57,470
 You gotta control your laugh,  
or your laugh will control you. 

207
00:08:57,503 --> 00:08:59,472
          The stallion          
      finally bucked him.       

208
00:08:59,505 --> 00:09:01,140
    Can you get on the air?     

209
00:09:01,173 --> 00:09:03,075
    Have you been practicing    
     your laughing schtick?     

210
00:09:03,109 --> 00:09:04,810
         Oh, shit yeah.         
         Wanna hear it?         

211
00:09:04,844 --> 00:09:06,979
         No, there's...         
    there's no time! Just--     

212
00:09:07,013 --> 00:09:09,515
       Just get in there        
    and tame the beast. Go!     

213
00:09:09,582 --> 00:09:10,783
          Now, Roger!           

214
00:09:15,254 --> 00:09:18,925
        You're listening        
          to Toba 89.6          

215
00:09:18,958 --> 00:09:20,960
       Winnipeg's Okayest       
         Rock Station.          

216
00:09:20,993 --> 00:09:25,131
   I'm DJ Roger Laughingmug.    

217
00:09:26,933 --> 00:09:29,535
          Laughinghat?          

218
00:09:29,602 --> 00:09:31,270
         Laughing tire?         

219
00:09:31,304 --> 00:09:32,672
      Why is there a tire       
            in here?            

220
00:09:37,176 --> 00:09:40,212
             Wait!              
         Laughingstick!         

221
00:09:40,279 --> 00:09:43,049
      Roger Laughingstick.      

222
00:09:43,115 --> 00:09:47,019
           (laughing)           

223
00:09:47,053 --> 00:09:48,220
      (bottle clattering,       
      liquid splattering)       

224
00:09:48,287 --> 00:09:51,290
          Paul: Shit!           
 I fucked up Roger's storybook! 

225
00:09:54,527 --> 00:09:56,329
   Jo, I need more pop money.   

226
00:09:56,362 --> 00:09:57,730
           Fok'n guy.           

227
00:10:02,068 --> 00:10:03,235
             Paul:              
      Sorry, Grouse Lake.       

228
00:10:03,269 --> 00:10:05,338
       We're having, uh,        
    technical difficulties.     

229
00:10:05,371 --> 00:10:07,773
   The words are all melted.    

230
00:10:08,774 --> 00:10:10,076
       Caller, you're on!       

231
00:10:10,109 --> 00:10:13,045
        Dean: Hey, man.         
 You fucked up Roger's memory.  

232
00:10:13,079 --> 00:10:15,448
   (chuckling) It's actually    
      pronounced "memoir."      

233
00:10:15,514 --> 00:10:16,849
          It's French!          

234
00:10:16,882 --> 00:10:19,085
      (in French accent:)       
It means telling your own story!

235
00:10:19,118 --> 00:10:21,120
        Dean: Nah, bro.         
     It's called a memory,      

236
00:10:21,187 --> 00:10:23,522
          because he's          
     remembering his life.      

237
00:10:23,556 --> 00:10:25,424
     Just read a dry part.      

238
00:10:25,458 --> 00:10:27,593
        Duh! What do you        
    think I'm trying to do?     

239
00:10:27,627 --> 00:10:31,731
    Okay, here's something.     
      Chapter N'shwaaswi.       

240
00:10:31,764 --> 00:10:35,067
  "To thine own self be true."  
            Mn'ehh.             

241
00:10:35,101 --> 00:10:37,570
     "I'm not going to lie.     

242
00:10:37,603 --> 00:10:40,606
There was nothing more powerful 
    than having white people    

243
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:42,375
   hang on your every word."    

244
00:10:42,408 --> 00:10:44,210
        Do you like it?         

245
00:10:44,243 --> 00:10:46,412
            Like it?            
           I love it.           

246
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:49,749
         I always knew          
     you'd make it, Roger.      

247
00:10:49,782 --> 00:10:53,552
Even way back when you were just
a stupid no-talent traffic guy. 

248
00:10:53,586 --> 00:10:57,490
      Speaking of traffic,      
       that the new guy?        

249
00:10:57,556 --> 00:11:00,726
     Were you just dreaming     
    about being in his spot?    

250
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:03,929
    I was just getting ready    
   to do the traffic report.    

251
00:11:03,963 --> 00:11:07,933
  Roger, get this. Traffic guy  
    wants to do what you do.    

252
00:11:07,967 --> 00:11:12,938
        (both laughing)         

253
00:11:12,972 --> 00:11:13,973
           Hey, kid.            

254
00:11:14,006 --> 00:11:15,841
         Comb that mane         

255
00:11:15,908 --> 00:11:19,011
       or a stallion will       
       lasso the horizon.       

256
00:11:19,078 --> 00:11:20,846
        (both chuckling)        

257
00:11:20,913 --> 00:11:22,481
           (laughing)           

258
00:11:22,515 --> 00:11:26,152
          Hey, Micky.           
       You missed a spot.       

259
00:11:26,185 --> 00:11:28,788
           (laughing)           

260
00:11:29,822 --> 00:11:31,457
   You're riffing with Roger.   

261
00:11:31,490 --> 00:11:33,125
              Man:              
      Hey, Roger. It's me!      

262
00:11:33,159 --> 00:11:34,126
           Who's me?            

263
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,996
          Uncle McKay           
       up in Grouse Lake.       

264
00:11:37,029 --> 00:11:39,131
     More like Gross Lake.      
           (laughing)           

265
00:11:39,165 --> 00:11:40,633
       (playing whirling        
         sound effect)          

266
00:11:40,666 --> 00:11:42,168
          Uncle McKay:          
          Enough, boy.          

267
00:11:42,201 --> 00:11:44,203
        I'm just calling        
  because you gotta come home   

268
00:11:44,270 --> 00:11:46,272
     and host treaty days.      

269
00:11:46,305 --> 00:11:47,973
      Everyone misses you.      

270
00:11:48,007 --> 00:11:50,042
      I'll have my manager      
         call my agent          

271
00:11:50,109 --> 00:11:52,111
            and see             
    if I have any openings.     

272
00:11:52,144 --> 00:11:54,380
   Uncle McKay: Okay, great!    
     We can't wait to see--     

273
00:11:54,447 --> 00:11:58,284
      - (cutting off call)      
    - Paul: What the fuck!?     

274
00:12:00,853 --> 00:12:03,889
       You're telling me,       
 Roger can take off to the city 

275
00:12:03,956 --> 00:12:08,027
 and act good, but when I do it 
       everyone hates me?       

276
00:12:08,060 --> 00:12:12,631
        That's bullshit!

It's different when you did it, 

278
00:12:13,733 --> 00:12:14,834
         because you're         
        a massive chode.        

279
00:12:14,867 --> 00:12:17,536
     Oh, looks like we lost     
          the caller.           

280
00:12:17,570 --> 00:12:18,804
       Sorry, Chickadee.

           Oh, yeah.

    From the band Big Makwa.

        from back home.         

329
00:14:22,161 --> 00:14:23,762
           Oh, right.           

330
00:14:23,796 --> 00:14:26,098
      She has a single out      
     called "Eagle Heart,"      

331
00:14:26,131 --> 00:14:28,834
       and you agreed to        
     feature it, remember?      

332
00:14:28,868 --> 00:14:30,803
            I guess             
     I can squeeze her in,      

333
00:14:30,836 --> 00:14:33,272
       but I'm not taking       
      these cucumbers off.      

334

       old Roger Dodger.        

335
00:14:43,215 --> 00:14:46,652
 I remember swimming around in  
ditches with you in our diapers.

336
00:14:46,685 --> 00:14:47,887
    Maybe you haven't heard,    

337
00:14:47,953 --> 00:14:50,956
    but I don't swim around     
      in diapers anymore.       

338
00:14:50,990 --> 00:14:53,459
         Ho'leh, Roger.         
      Just fuckin' around.      

339
00:14:53,492 --> 00:14:56,495
    All this fame is getting    
     to your cucumber head.     

340
00:14:59,498 --> 00:15:00,966

           You're on.

00:15:04,136 --> 00:15:07,206

342
00:15:07,239 --> 00:15:11,010
    I've got none other than    
   my good old friend Deedee    

343
00:15:11,043 --> 00:15:14,680
      from Big Makwa with       
her latest hit, "Pigeon Heart."

        laugh like that?        

347

           the show?            

350
00:15:29,028 --> 00:15:31,563
          Look at you,          
        part Elton John,        

351
00:15:31,597 --> 00:15:33,832
      part veggie platter.      

352
00:15:33,866 --> 00:15:37,937
   Okay, now you're jealous.    

353
00:15:38,003 --> 00:15:39,872
      I don't know whether      
       to slap you silly        

354
00:15:39,905 --> 00:15:41,340
           or dip you           
       in ranch dressing.       

355
00:15:41,373 --> 00:15:44,843
  You're the one acting good,   
   with your leather jacket.    

356
00:15:44,877 --> 00:15:47,046
           Actually,            
    where did you get that?     

357
00:15:47,079 --> 00:15:48,714
          Look, Roger,          
   I ain't here for my song.    

358
00:15:48,747 --> 00:15:51,083
     Then what do you want?     

359
00:15:51,116 --> 00:15:53,752
   Been on the road too long,   

360
00:15:53,786 --> 00:15:56,455
         and for what?          
             Fame?              

361
00:15:56,522 --> 00:15:57,890
         Who needs it?          

362
00:15:57,923 --> 00:16:00,592
        If you're tired,        
          take a nap.           

363
00:16:00,626 --> 00:16:01,860
        I'm going home.         

364
00:16:03,862 --> 00:16:05,297
            And you,            
    you should come with me.    

365
00:16:05,364 --> 00:16:06,732
        Think about it.         

366

368
00:16:14,139 --> 00:16:16,809
         You want me to         
       leave all of this.       

369
00:16:16,875 --> 00:16:18,410
       Why the hell not?        

370
00:16:18,444 --> 00:16:21,981
    Because I got everything    
   a man could ask for here.    

371
00:16:23,415 --> 00:16:25,751
   Look, Roger, people talk.    

372
00:16:25,784 --> 00:16:27,286
 I know what happened to Micky, 

373
00:16:27,319 --> 00:16:31,957
  and if you let all this shit  
 get to your already big head,  

374
00:16:31,991 --> 00:16:34,593
            then...             
           (laughing)           

375
00:16:34,626 --> 00:16:36,295
            ...Boom!            

376
00:16:36,328 --> 00:16:38,931
       That's never going       
        to happen to me.        

377
00:16:38,964 --> 00:16:41,333
        I'll be leaving         
         in three days,         

378
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,470
      and I'm going to buy      
  two tickets to Grouse Lake.   

379
00:16:44,503 --> 00:16:47,239
     The rest is up to you.

           All right.

   So, you're really leaving?   

390

          Sounds nice,

         That's right!          

395
00:17:29,882 --> 00:17:33,685
    And we could get you all    
those humidifiers that you need.

396
00:17:33,719 --> 00:17:36,422
            Really?             
    What about a pay raise.     

397
00:17:36,455 --> 00:17:38,724
           Of course!           

398
00:17:38,757 --> 00:17:41,927

401
00:17:47,433 --> 00:17:49,535
          I'm going to          
    have to say no, Crystal.    

402
00:17:51,370 --> 00:17:53,405
        Well, can't say         
         I didn't try.

       we want you back.        

409

      you do any of this.

     for just a few hours,      

411
00:18:20,065 --> 00:18:21,900
         and I already          
          need a nap.           

412
00:18:21,934 --> 00:18:26,271
     And you showed me that     
you can come back from the city 

413
00:18:26,305 --> 00:18:28,941
       and you don't have       
      to be a giant dink.       

414
00:18:28,974 --> 00:18:31,777
     And you also taught us     
     that it was Chief Jo's     

415
00:18:31,810 --> 00:18:34,980
   budget cuts that made you    
  go away in the first place,   

416
00:18:35,013 --> 00:18:36,448
      and I love the fact       
       that she fucked up       

417
00:18:36,482 --> 00:18:39,651
   way more than I ever did.    

418
00:18:39,685 --> 00:18:42,621
           Sorry, Jo.           
   I'm all out of pop money.    

419
00:18:42,654 --> 00:18:45,624
    This DJ is signing off.     

420
00:18:45,657 --> 00:18:49,962
      Eh, fuck off, Paul.       
           I had to.            

421
00:18:49,995 --> 00:18:53,532
     Deedee let the budget      
    get way out of control.     

422
00:18:53,599 --> 00:18:57,436
       But you also beat        
    Deedee in the election.     

423
00:18:57,469 --> 00:19:00,005
      Jo, she's the reason      
         he came back.          

424
00:19:03,609 --> 00:19:08,547
    (sighing) Okay, already.    
    I'll get him back then.     

425
00:19:10,849 --> 00:19:13,785
             Roger:             
      Hello, Grouse Lake.       

426
00:19:13,819 --> 00:19:15,888
   Old Laughingstick is back.   

427
00:19:15,954 --> 00:19:17,656
      But only for a sec.       

428
00:19:17,689 --> 00:19:20,192
         Thanks to Paul         
     for reading my memoir.     

429
00:19:20,225 --> 00:19:21,627
     But if I woulda known      
     that someone was gonna     

430
00:19:21,660 --> 00:19:23,996
     read my memoir on air,     
   I never would have left it   

431
00:19:24,029 --> 00:19:25,797
 perfectly placed under a lamp. 

432
00:19:25,831 --> 00:19:29,501
         I am outraged,         
    but mostly at Chief Jo.     

433
00:19:29,535 --> 00:19:33,906
      I know you probably       
        have questions.         

434
00:19:33,972 --> 00:19:35,874
           (knocking)           

435
00:19:35,908 --> 00:19:39,378
        And looky here.         

436
00:19:39,411 --> 00:19:41,813
            We have             
       a surprise guest.        

437
00:19:43,815 --> 00:19:46,251
           Hi, Roger.           
         Chief Jo here.         

438
00:19:46,318 --> 00:19:49,688
     I just wanted to take      
    a minute to, you know--     

439
00:19:49,721 --> 00:19:50,822
             Go on.             

440
00:19:50,856 --> 00:19:53,158
           To say...            

441
00:19:53,192 --> 00:19:56,428
      just say stuff that       
     makes you feel better.     

442
00:19:56,495 --> 00:19:58,397
         Like what kind         
         of stuff, Jo?          

443
00:19:58,430 --> 00:20:00,832
   That that's a nice shirt.    

444
00:20:00,866 --> 00:20:02,701
              And?              

445
00:20:04,102 --> 00:20:06,171
           (mumbling)           
 You can have your budget back. 

446
00:20:06,205 --> 00:20:09,174
I'm sorry, I couldn't hear you. 
       Can you speak up?        

447
00:20:09,208 --> 00:20:12,911
          You can have          
       your budget back.        

448
00:20:12,945 --> 00:20:14,346
              And?              

449
00:20:14,379 --> 00:20:19,051
     And you're the... best     
        and we need you?        

450
00:20:19,084 --> 00:20:20,552
             Okay?              

451
00:20:20,586 --> 00:20:23,021
       This is bullshit!        

452
00:20:23,055 --> 00:20:26,959
        (both laughing)         

453
00:20:27,025 --> 00:20:28,727
     You heard it, people.      

454
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:32,231
         Chief Jo needs         
    old Laughingstick back.     

455
00:20:32,264 --> 00:20:33,732
           (laughing)           

456
00:20:33,765 --> 00:20:36,535
           The board            
        is lighting up.         

457
00:20:36,568 --> 00:20:38,070
     It's good to be back,      
          Grouse Lake!          

458
00:20:38,103 --> 00:20:39,738
  This one's for you, Deedee.

461
00:20:48,213 --> 00:20:49,581
           Hi, there.           

462
00:20:49,615 --> 00:20:52,150
   You might remember me from   
   such things as the radio.    

463
00:20:52,217 --> 00:20:55,153
      This sauce is as red      

464
00:20:55,220 --> 00:20:57,823
     as the road our people     
            walk on,            

465
00:20:57,889 --> 00:21:00,225
    and you too, white man,     

466
00:21:00,259 --> 00:21:03,495
  can now walk the same road.   

467
00:21:03,562 --> 00:21:07,766
    You can put my red sauce    
     on anything you like.      

468
00:21:07,799 --> 00:21:10,936
    Basically, anything that    
   you would put ketchup on,    

469
00:21:10,969 --> 00:21:12,604
     but it's not ketchup.      

470
00:21:14,072 --> 00:21:16,241
        Chief Red Sauce.        

471
00:21:17,476 --> 00:21:20,646
  It's definitely not ketchup.
