At long last Graham Clark, the co-host of Stop Podcasting Yourself is on the show and there is a twist! For the first time in Town Show history we have a guest host. Christine Bortolin is in the Ryan chair to co-host with Mark and learn all about Graham growing up in Calgary in the 80s. They talk about Graham’s intense fandom of Alf, Jared Leto’s Italian accent, trick or treating in a gated community, biblical accurate angels and so much more. Graham builds another cursed retail location that can’t stay in business and he makes 7-11 knock-off convenience story “6:30 - 10:30”.
