My name is Jason Heaton, and I'm joined as ever by my friend and co-host in wintery Toronto, James Stacey.

James, we're still in the thick of it here, aren't we?

It's a different zone here, man.

It is a very rainy. I think the snow might be gone pretty soon. It's been pouring for, not pouring, but like, it's been raining pretty hard for two days now. It's keeping the Jeep clean, which is nice. I'm seeing, you know, elements of body panels and the damage therein that I haven't seen since the snow came. We're at seven degrees Celsius, which is,
