Also, Terry channels Mike Love in his Strangers in the Night Beach Boys review and Ted has another Old Man Bird moment.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Reluctant retirees Terry and Ted capitalize on their free time and mobility to blanket Montreal with their presence at various and sundry charity and entertainment events.

The uncomfortable truth: Greeks make the best Montreal pizza. Also, don't cut in front of Ted in line at Costco. In an episode fraught with controversy, the boys shoot from the lip on their preference for Greek Montreal pizza, Terry calls out a pool company that tried his patience beyond the breaking point, and Ted almost turns Costco Pointe Claire into the Octagon.  Hosted on Acast.

In the spring, a young man's fancy turns lightly to thoughts of love, while an older man's fancy turns to the Masters, the Habs' playoff chances, breakfast and bunions (paraphrasing Alfred Tennyson here).  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In the absence of company this week, Terry and Ted let it all hang out and even veer treacherously close to breaking their commitment to avoid talking politics. Also, all the usual tomfoolery and features, including Terry's entertainment recommendations and the Tweet Sheet, as well as a cornucopia of reminiscences, which is easy to say and spell when you have autocorrect.  Hosted on Acast.

Terry and Ted launch Season 7 of the Standing By podcast with a visit from a national treasure and old friend. Longtime newspaper cartoonist Terry Mosher (pen name Aislin) has been the bane of many a Canadian politician for more than half a century and a passionate baseball fan for longer still. He brought a copy of his latest book - "Aislin's Montreal Expos - A Cartoonist's Love Affair" - and more than enough Montreal memories to fill an hour.
