Summary

It's always good to travel internationally, as it gives the traveler the opportunity to tune out the troubles at home and embrace the local culture. And this week your host was fortunate enough to visit our neighbors to the north and perform at the Falls View Casino in Niagara Falls, Ontario. With a view of the eponymous falls, the hotel and casino complex lets the American traveler escape from the relentless cascade of news of our impending doom, while being washed over by the aural and visual majesty of one of the natural wonders of the world. So if you have the opportunity this summer, get out into nature and try to find the joy that being in the wild provides. If your journey leads you out of the USA, all the better. And don't worry, the chaos and craziness of our great experiment in democracy will be there when you return. The live rants come from the show on July 22, 2022, and feature a variety of Canadian perspectives on their neighbors to the south, parking, toddlers at baseball games, and the "freedom convoy".

0:21.5	I don't think the pandemic is over, but what would I know?
0:29.9	Just a rubber chicken.
0:32.1	Well, you got your opinion.
0:33.3	No, I know you do.
0:34.7	But the CDC, I've not got time for this.
0:38.8	Some people are really upset.
0:41.1	They don't think it's over, okay?
0:42.4	They call it an endemic.
0:43.2	I don't know what an end.
0:45.7	Okay, we do not have time to argue about this.
0:47.6	I've got to get on with Rantcast.
0:52.0	Number 91 entitled, O Canada.
0:53.7	Yes, sir, he, Bob.
1:04.4	I was just there, but we'll get to that because I'm quite excited to tell you that I'm back on the bus here, really, in a parking lot in Jamestown, New York.
1:16.2	And so I got to go down to Lysandros and pick up some of that extraordinary Italian sausage, which I'm amazed. It is just terrific. It is just exceptional. And one of the great places to grab a breakfast as far as I'm concerned in this country.
1:22.9	And I am just, and it helped take the edge off because I forgot my fucking computer.
1:28.5	Okay, so I'm not using another computer, and I don't know if it'll come over as well on that
1:33.4	computer because you know how touchy all this equipment shit is.
1:37.4	I can't fucking believe that's part of why I think the rubber chicken may be right, that the
