So great, thanks @Cupid Stunt. Baldry, when performing, always told the story of how he discovered Rod Stewart who was busking at a train station. And I believe Rod Stewart also confirmed that story. When I went to meet him after we met the first time (and before I drove him to the studio) it was in a bar on a Sunday, and the bar was closed. The doors were open and I saw the poster that Eartha Kitt would be performing that week(!). There was no one on the main floor so I went up the stairs. LJB and several men were seated around a board room table. A couple of the men took great delight in trying to razz me (young, blonde, they thought I was stupid). Baldry would have none of that. He said to meet downstairs. I waited downstairs and then we sat around a table in the bar. One of the men was very vulgar, and I am sure I looked like a baby deer caught in the headlights. I was there to do a job, but I was also a hug fan of LJB. I did not expect to hear the things I heard that day. Baldry shut him down eventually. He was lovely, as was everyone else, but that one guy, he really wanted to shock me and he did.

Julie went nuts when Jack said Gwen was moving in. That is because Gwen destroyed Abigail's happy family. Didn't Julie fuck Doug when he was married to Addy? Thus making her Hope's sister and step-mother? Can she really cast stones?

Yes, because she is a rude bitch, and especially when she can stick it to Sara. I think it is so interesting that MeAgain thinks she is friends with Sunny. She bought Sunny the "vaccinated" hat. She texts with Sunny all the time about her mothering challenges. She threw Sunny under the bus through her PR and Sunny iced her out for quite some time. Then someone close to Sunny must have advised her to pretend to be friends with MeAgain. I have no doubt that at the Hostin dinner table, they chuckle about this.

Tara is super smart. She goes to GC, stays in the Greasy Pickle, and then decides to venture out to get Harrison's fave snacks. She is wearing black jogging clothes and a black cap. No one would recognize her, except of course Loch Ness Monster who is lurking in the lobby. She runs smack dab into him. Phyllis is all praying mantis weird mother aggressiveness against Loch, and shoos him out, but tells Tara she doesn't give a shit about her.

Love that! Things are always very rustic in Soap Opera Canada, including on the other soaps. I remember Victor Newman parachuting out of a plane ostensibly to land in Ottawa🤣, which is the federal capitol. He ended up in a seedy bar on a river. It was full of lumberjacks. And now we have Jason and Britt in a lighthouse!

For about five years but then I eventually got promoted to running the nonprofit I worked for. LJB was so amazing, we saw him perform quite a few times and it was like he was on the B or C list at that time, so the venues were all quite intimate. Sigh, those were the days.

It was right after she started on Regis. Kelly Ripa Pantene

Didn't Kelly Ripa have a Pantene gig? That was of course before her hair began to look like fried straw.

So, I don't see an out here for Liam/Bill. I know, it's a soap, so they will get off, but how? They ran into Vinnie. Maybe he was seriously injured before and thrown into their path. But he was in fact alive after they accidentally hit him. This means; call 911. Bill took Vinnie's phone and id and got rid of them. Bill got rid of his car. All of this points to something--if not murder, it is still a pretty big crime. And how is Bill an expert in knowing if someone is dead? That is why you call 911.

I stopped watching pretty much right after Ryan started. There is nothing good here. Every now and then I see a few minutes and I am really shocked that this show still has an audience. Kelly Ripa managed to take her own pretty likeable persona (when she first started, and even then, she had problems) and destroy it. She is unwatchable. How do they even have viewers at this point?

So, I have a story about this. When hubs and I were in uni in TO we used to see LJB and he was amazing. Then we moved to our current city. As a young PR person I had a job that involved getting celebs to do PSAs (that is a whole other story for another day). We went to a sort of club, not a night club, but a venue, where John and Kathy were performing. Through some contacts they agreed to sit with us after the performance and talk about it. We had drinks. Kathy was awesome! John agreed to do the PSA and we set it up that I would drive him to my guy who had a recording studio in his house. What I didn't know was that John (Long John) had been in a serious car accident before this, and was terrified to be in a car. I had a tiny Toyota Tercel that he barely fit into. Luckily, it was a Sunday and no traffic, but it was clear he was petrified to be in my car, and I was equally terrified that I was creating his terror. We got to my producer's house and thankfully he just took over and put everyone at ease. John also had a very serious cold, so I wondered what we could accomplish. Of course, he was a pro, and then we recorded amazing audio for our PSAs. I still cannot believe that he agreed to do this, let alone let me drive him to the studio.

I think it was @Kromm. And I agree. This guy gives me life.

Hah! This show punks itself. The first place to look for anyone, anyone, is the tunnels, and especially the wine cellar. But, yeah, both Gabi and Rafe just didn't even consider it. Show, you think you are being funny but you are pissing me off!

The Sami/Lucas scenes are all that matters at this point! No, not true. I am enjoying most of the show these past few weeks, but Sami and Lucas = Gold.

Charles Grodin also did a pretty provocative talk show on CNBC in the mid-nineties.

I did not know that...so that is why Robert had to talk to Monica separately.

I am guessing you got auto corrected and meant a medical card. 🙃 Yes, one would need a provincial health care card/number. I didn't quite catch which Province they are in but they said lighthouse, so I am guessing Atlantic Coast. In an emergency, I am sure anyone would be treated but for Britt to just go see a doc without a Health Care number/id? Yeah, no.

Not sailing, but good for her and Al.

So Joy asked Che about Elon Musk being on SNL and she said he was kind of different. Che responded to that and then Joy interrupted Sunny I think to tell Che he hadn't answered the question she asked, which she said was: why were you opposed to him being on. But Joy never asked him that question! Che then answered that he wasn't opposed to him being on.

Yes, this made no sense. As usual. Sara was basically talking about doing physical things, like she has been known to do on various shows. When has MeAgain done anything physical. The most movement she makes is when she jerks her head back and forth like the valley girl she is.

You know, MeAgain said that her SIL is Kevin McCarthy's advisor and that she has a lot of friends and relatives on Capitol Hill, and she has better sourcing than Joy does. Hmmm...I wonder how her SIL is going to feel being outed for providing intel to MeAgain?

Sara's face, as MeAgain melted down via valley girl speak, was everything. She was about to burst into laughter and had to stop herself. This is a good article on today's MeAgain meltdown. https://www.thedailybeast.com/meghan-mccain-loses-it-after-joy-behar-calls-gop-the-qanon-party

Yup, she is
