Three Signs The World Needs A New Flood
Yesterday, I was confronted with three disgusting presentations of ignorance. It started in the morning, when we received an email from a public relations mutt from Florida who offered us the “opportunity” to speak to a woman who was on a crusade to save homosexuals from themselves. She claimed that she had been a lesbian for 13 years, and it ruined her life, but now that she’s back on the...

I May Owe Edmonton An Apology
Being in British Columbia for this year’s Stanley Cup playoffs has opened my eyes somewhat. I generally always blamed my hatred of sports fans on the ones I heard complain night after night in Edmonton. Since, I have come to realize that the unbiased opinion is a true rarity. It seems that almost every fan sees events in glasses tinted to their own desire. I suppose I’m only slightly...

The Train Wrecks - Hill Top Pub - 10.10.15
Freedom of Speech
Today on The Debacle, I started talking about an incident I went through at a local grocery store last night, that I thought would be relatable to you guys, the listeners. I like to open the windows on my life for you because I think if you’re going to invite me in to your home and car every morning, I should be able to do the same.
Now this morning, we got a call from a listener who did...

DLBreakdown - Scott Pilgrim Vs The World
My main problem with Michael Cera is that he’s been playing the same character since he was George Michael on Arrested Development. Shy, awkward, eager to please, never really stands up for himself.
This is one of the reasons Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World was a hit for me.
You see, Cera does have George Michael moments throughout the film, but this time the movie provides a back story that...

DLBreakdown - Dinner For Schmucks
The first movie I really remember seeing Paul Rudd in was “Knocked Up”, and he was fantastic. Possibly, my favorite part of that movie. In almost every role he’s in, he delivers natural, snappy lines, with most of his humor being referential. His characters seem to find a way to relate every situation they are in to some little nugget of pop culture, or history, and it works...

A Real Crazy Cat Lady!
Before we get started, I’m going to give you a link to a video. Watch this, then come back, it’s short so I can wait.

What the hell, right?! This woman, who the family does not know, just binned their cat like it was a scrap of paper on the sidewalk. Now, I’m not a cat person, but even I think this is horrifying! What would you do if this...

I Can Go All Night
Less than 24 hours now. There’s always a nervous energy the night before a competition of any sort, and the key is to harness and control that energy. In this case, that’s more true than ever.
You see, the competition tomorrow is one of endurance. Joe Otoo and I will start at 6 AM tomorrow, and proceed to broadcast a “Day Long Debacle” of sorts. We will stay on the air...

The man who saved Batman from box office failure will always have very high expectations. So when it comes to Christopher Nolan’s latest summer blockbuster, Inception, it’s no surprise that people flocked to theatres to see if he could deliver once again.
He did.
In a world where it is possible to go inside the world of dreams, and extract information from a person’s...

Eminem's Latest Music Video
The latest single from Eminem’s Recovery album starts playing tomorrow (Friday) on the Peak, for Cruise It or Lose It. In a bout of perfect timing, the music video for ‘Love The Way You Lie’ was released today. Let’s go to the tape!
I had to watch this twice, I was so blown away. The raw emotion of Eminem and Rihanna in the song is easily matched by their on screen...

DLBreakdown - CD Review - Killinger
One of the great things about working in radio is that you get to meet bands and musicians who are still in the uprising stage. I had the pleasure of such an occurrence back in my time in Edmonton, with a man by the name of “Crazy Dave”. Of course, Dave has a real name, Dave Williams, but Crazy Dave was too perfect a name. It just captured the energy that he brought to any room. The...

DLBreakdown - Salt
In 2010, a movie is not good just because Angelina Jolie is hot.
I mean, don’t get me wrong, she’s a good looking gal. But in the age of the internet, I can see that for myself at home. So, in 2010, when I go see a movie, I expect more than just an easy on the eyes Jolie slagging through yet another action spy movie.
It seems odd to say, but for a genre that doesn’t...

I like watching America’s Got Talent, but it infuriates me to see talented people get cut out of the show in place of people with zero talent, just because it’s easy to laugh at them. I like a bad audition as much as the next guy, but can we let it end there?
Jo2 introduced me to a website over the weekend called Grooveshark. Basically, it’s a website where you can create...

DLBreakdown - Despicable Me
I love Steve Carell. I also hate Steve Carell. It all depends on the character he’s playing really. Mostly, I just hate Michael Scott. I love lamp.
Sorry, couldn’t resist.
Steve Carell, as Despicable Me’s main character, Gru, comes off as Michael Scott, Carell’s character on The Office, imitating Borat. And yet somehow, it works. From the opening moments of the movie,...

My Burger Is Better Than Your Takeout
There’s something to be said about cooking a meal yourself. Today, on a whim, Team Dalby decided we were going to make Turkey burgers from scratch. Now, the one thing I have found is that in the Bulkley, there is no shortage of great places to get food, but to be honest, these burgers were better than anything I have eaten since I started waking you up four months ago.
Now I’m no...

Hit These Albums
In the past week, I’ve had the chance to listen to a trio of albums that I have really enjoyed, but each for different reasons. Today on Dalby.FM, I’m going to share these albums with you. Click the pics for YouTube samples.
The first, after a glowing recommendation from Jo2, is Eminem’s Recovery Album. By his own admission, Eminem has not been on top of his game as ...
