The Town Show

Naomi Sneickus, Principal Lee in Disney's Zombies films, joins Mark and Ryan to talk about growing up in Kitchener/Waterloo, Ontario. Her stories include casting the Oktoberfest parade characters as a teen, playing Smurfette, and a year in Geneva at seven. Inspired by this, our town gets FlowGember, a January parade with mascots galore! We also visit a judo class, and a garage sale in a cut de sac. There is also a lot of talk of Spectreman.

Matt Baram, co-star of the play Big Stuff with wife Naomi Snieckus, joins Mark and Ryan to talk about growing up in Edmonton. His stories include sleeping on bologna in his parents' delis and his grandfather's burlesque club, the Blue Danube. Inspired by this, our town gets Second Chance Deli, run by former inmates, with prison-pun sandwiches. The local Irish Hurling team, The Alcoholics, gets a new name - the Dewlaps, after a moose's dangly neck flap.

Jennifer Tong, improviser at Tightrope Improv Theatre in Vancouver and recently seen in the Arts Club play Heist, joins Mark and Ryan to talk about growing up in Richmond, BC. Her stories include birthday parties at Go Bananas that ended with a mystery biter, and a sweet sixteen at the River Rock Casino. Inspired by this, our town gets All Bets Are Off, a kids' play zone with a strict no-biting policy, and its sister casino, All Bets Are On. A heist begins, and Dr. Noodle proposes cracking the safe with plant roots. It would only take sixteen years.

Ryan joins Mark and Chris live (to tape) from Seoul, South Korea. He tells stories about his travels including being the perpetrator of cultural faux pas on a train that involved the hit Korean cartoon “Bread Barbershop”. Inspired by this Mark and Ryan create our very own classic cartoon series for the town called Spice Rack featuring Pancake Man. Our town also gets an insurance company called Off Broadway Insurance where most of the employees just want to be actors.

It’s all been leading to this - the wrap up of Season 1 of The Outskirts - our premium, serialized narrative that takes place on the outskirts of our town. Will Engle get away with faking his death? Will we ever learn Sequel’s real name? Will the mystery of the Labyrinth be solved? What is going on with that Mad Max type gang? Will Carole and The Sad Man ever reunite with their wife/ex-wife?

A word to the wise, you may want to listen to the 1964 song “Leader of the Pack” by The Shangri-La’s before listening to this episode - it highly influences it.

If you want to start at the beginning of the series check out the following episodes: #33, #40, #53, #71, #88.
