| 0:00.0 | The Great Hero, once again the smarts round of the world |
| 1:21.0 | Oh Canada, my home and native land, we stand on guard for thee |
| 1:31.0 | Yeah, it's great to be back here as I say, this is the land of Poutine and Salt Beef and smoked beef |
| 1:37.0 | So you can get a goiter and a hard attack while you're here as well |
| 1:41.0 | And it's really a company picnic for all, yes I snork at my own material |
| 1:47.0 | Look for it, listen for it, this is our company picnic, it's comedy camp, this is the one time |
| 1:53.0 | We get to see people we haven't seen in a great deal of time or comics that we only see occasionally |
| 1:58.0 | All civilians if you don't mind me calling you that, who aren't in comedy say, you guys all know each other right? |
| 2:03.0 | And it's like, well we do, we mostly know each other, we don't know every single other comic in the world |

| 2:44.0 | Or you could just be drunk and curse people out and then people would think you were the guy from Game of Thrones |
| 2:49.0 | Also, a man that I admire greatly, who when I started out in comedy in 1948, right after the war, after we'd showed Jerry a thing or two |
| 2:57.0 | He took me by the hand and was a leading light in my mind and an absolutely indiscenceable bulletproof comedian |
| 3:04.0 | Mr. George Wallace is here today joining us |
| 3:10.0 | A man who probably doesn't know but I learned quite a lot from, although he never sat down and taught me anything formally |
| 3:18.0 | We played many gigs together in San Francisco in the old days in Seattle and every other place I can think of |
