Show Notes

This week Aaron and Naomi dive into the greasy world of The Trades, a Crave original TV show co-produced by the Trailer Park Boys. The Trades is a blue-collar, workplace comedy starring Rob Wells (aka Ricky from the Trailer Park Boys) as Todd Stool, the mullet-rocking foreman at a fictional oil refinery. Filmed in Hamilton and Nova Scotia, the show has plenty of bathroom humour, weird nicknames, and a whole lot of chaos. Aaron and Naomi did not exactly love The Trades, but they do laugh about Todd's 'baloney' tail and they appreciate Tom Green's antics as the deadbeat site manager. Plus, they share their own (limited) experiences with manual labor trying to seem qualified to talk about blue-collar comedy.
