When Ryan's when it's time to begin. It's on to rewind around with John Paulic and waiting the 18 that makes sense that these things we see in the ring every week on TV is

0:11.5

We want to run for Monday night the load of Tuesday morning from the first wrestling side is we

0:17.5

It is Monday night June the 12th of 2023. I am John Paulic alongside waiting. The fun never ends. You're opposed wrestling. Are you ready for another week, Mr. Tim? I am ready. Get the go.

0:39.5

Right. You are representing the pandas tonight. It was very conscientious. Conscientious of you. Look at that. That's for all the video viewers out there. Yeah. Did you have a nice weekend relaxing weekend. Yeah, I think so. You know, finally like able to take a step outside and take a breather after weird week, I would say where we are after not being able to take a breath over the last week outside. Yeah, it's cleared up significantly. I can go walk. I don't maybe I'm just used to it now. It's somebody else.

1:09.5

Problem now, you know, it's it's it's over out in the West like we you know it's you guys deal with it, you know, it's not our issue anymore. It is the unofficial slogan of Canada. How does it affect me?

1:21.5

The world are you kidding me? No, but if anybody's dealing with this this sort of thing anywhere. Amen. Like I feel your pain. It was awful not being able to go out for a whole week.

1:33.5

Yeah, it's I guess we are we are through the worst of it until something comes back, but very yeah, we we got a lot of blame for this. All this, uh, you know, climate change and such. It was all our fault. Yeah, the Canada.

1:45.5

Sure. Yeah, New York, New York Post didn't take it easy on us. I went to Canada's Wonderland over the weekend. How is that? It was pretty fun. We had a good time. We went on Friday and got there early because if you have a season's pass.

2:01.5

There's an hour that you can go on a bunch of rides before everyone else has access to them. So we set out and it was raining.

2:11.5

It's like, okay, well, maybe the rain will clear up. It eventually did, but we're there in the rain. And I mean myself and my wife, we're not going on adult rides. We're there to take our kids on rides. So the grand total of rides that were open for kids was four rides that we are here an hour earlier in the rain to go on.

2:29.5

But it ended up clearing out. It actually turned into a really nice day. And in the years that I've gone to Wonderland. I've never been there when it has been as empty as it was this past Friday. Absolutely.

2:43.5

Like no lineups. And I have gone during like weird times of the year as well. I've never experienced this before. So the weather must have scared a lot of people off. It was also a random Friday. So there you go. That's my tip for people.

2:56.5

When I get asked about, hey, what should I do in Toronto? That's my tip for you. If you want to go to Wonderland, if you've never been, you don't have to go to Wonderland. It's not going to change your world. But that's the time to go.

3:05.5

Go when it's raining. Basically go when it's raining. You'll have a wonderful time out in the rain all day long. It's what rain jackets are for. It's what umbrellas came for.

3:14.5

So I went on a bunch of kids roller coasters and many many times because they go on a ride and they just want to go on it over and over and over again. That's over.

3:24.5

It was, did you have a favorite?

3:27.5

Well, by default, I guess it was the goaster coaster way you ever go on the goaster coaster.

3:31.5

You know, I can't say I have. I've never gone on the coaster coaster empty where it's just you and your child and the entire place is empty. That's the time to go on the goaster coaster.

3:42.5

Okay. I've not moving on.

3:46.5

We have been to Wonderland like once, I think. That's it. You've gone once. I'm not a roller coaster dude at all. No.

3:52.5

I would hate to know the number of I used to work at Wonderland. So there was a summer that I went there like a hundred times. It was a very, very long arduous summer where that's a long trip.

4:03.5

It's a really long trip to get there. And in my department, there were about a hundred or so of us.
