  • EPISODE 16: The TRUTH of Hawk Tuah’s Rise and Fall | From Meme Queen to Crypto Schemes

    Everyone's talking about Haliey Welch's new Crypto scam with her Hawk Tuah Coin, but no one is talking about how she did  @timanddeetv  dirty, the guy's that originally found her AND MADE HER FAMOUS.

    The fact that they're the sole reason she is famous, and she not only doesn't thank them, but she drags their names through the mud.

    We talk about the whole truth that Tim and Dee TV revealed in their recent YouTube video and the new Crypto scheme that  @Coffeezilla   @coffeezillaextras  went off on.

    We were always skeptical about her rise to fame, and as people who have done street interviews, we were wondering where the original interviewers were, and what happened.


    I'm glad to see that they shared their side of the story. There is a good chance that Hawk Tuah will Talk Tuah her lawyer and try to get them into legal trouble for this - but let's hope not.

  • EPISODE 15: Myron Gaines Calls Canada 'India' - Here's the Truth

    It seems to be a never ending discussion about how Canada is becoming India, Tim Horton's is now Singh Horton's... the list goes on.


    Well - we go over the facts and also respond to some comments we've received about the topic.


    We also go over the latest atmospheric rivers (what used to be called heavy rain) in BC, Canada and how flooding is getting closer and closer to home.


    Oh yeah, we also watch Myron Gaines of Fresh and Fit rant passionately about how Canada sucks, who ironically built a podcast on telling men that women are the emotional beings while constantly being overly emotional.


    There's a lot of things he said that are not true, and we break it down.


    More details:

    Fresh & Fit's Myron Gaines went on a rant about Canada becoming India, so we looked at what's actually happening in Canadian cities and broke down his wildest claims. From Tim Hortons conspiracies to BC's latest floods (or "atmospheric rivers" as they're calling them now), we tackle the good, bad, and straight-up incorrect views about life in Canada.

    We read your comments about cultural changes, housing prices, and what it really means to be Canadian in 2024. Plus, stories about chaos in Costco parking lots, why logging roads might actually help prevent mudslides, and whether Vancouver is really as "overrun" as some people claim.

  • EPISODE 13: Woman Was Catfished For 10 Years By Her Cousin. True Story - Explained

    This is a wild one. Someone getting catfished for almost 10 years... by their very own cousin.


    We go over in detail what the story is behind "Sweet Bobby" and share our take.


    This story takes catfishing to a new level. You are probably thinking, how can someone be catfished for almost 10 years??


    Trust us, we were too. But when you get to know the details, some of which that weren't even mentioned in the documentary, you'll start to understand.


    We still have our thoughts about it, and ultimately we're glad this story is coming to light.


    Someone can catfish you and go on to ruin your life, and there are really no laws to protect you. Hopefully this will bring forward new laws to protect victims and prevent this from happening again.

  • EPISODE 12: AI Only Discriminates Against Indians & Whites, Dead Internet Theory, & Taylor Swift Scams

    In this episode, we share our experience with ChatGPT's new Advanced Voice feature.


    It's an incredible tool, but we were surprised to see it's currently programmed to only mimic Indian and white accents- and refuses to do others.


    Its reasonings? (Catch the full convo around 13 minutes in):


    "I can't imitate accents that can be seen as disrespectful or offensive. I strive to be respectful and sensitive to all cultures. Some accents can be more culturally sensitive and I want to avoid any that might be considered offensive."


    Wait- why are Indian and white accents okay, but others aren’t? We’ve got mixed opinions on this. What’s your take?


    Shoutout to the Surrey Jack accent though.. it had us in stitches 😂.


    Harmol breaks down the "Dead Internet Theory" and we chat about Egon Cholakian and his eerie AI-like content. Straight creepy.


    Our friend's facebook got hacked, and sold fake Taylor Swift tickets to a bunch of randoms... brutal.


    See you all in the next one!

  • EPISODE 8.5: Diddy, Kendrick, Cole, Drake; Our Take

    As fans of hip hop, and fans of music, we had to talk about what's going on.


    The "Me Too" movement from several years ago brought light to women who were put in uncomfortable situations which put their careers in jeopardy.

  • EPISODE 8: Anti-Social, Overly Expensive, But Beautiful: Vancouver (STREET INTERVIEWS)

    We didn't know how many people would talk to us, we (Harmol) didn't know how to use a camera, and we barely knew what we wanted to ask.


    But... we hit the streets to see who would speak with us and share what they felt was important and isn't being talked about enough.


    We realized pretty quickly that maybe this was too deep of a question to start off with.. so started them more light hearted.


    By an overwhelming majority, the answers were always along the lines of.. The city is hard to make friends in, it's way too expensive, but it's damn beautiful.


    Should we do street interviews again? If so - let us know what we should ask!
