We're coming to the end of Season 4 and soon the end of Gord and Wayne video recaps. Some of you cheer and some of you don't. And some of you actually watched use, besides Pedro. But we got a couple of vids here. They're a bit longer overall than usual but we had stuff to say cause it was a big episode. Hopefully you enjoy it as much as we do shooting it. Here's our video recap for Episode 9 of Season 4. As we noted last week, the Druid is closed. And it was raining outside so we did it old school, like we started years ago, with a shoot at Wayne's house. We had a bit for fun with the edit this week. Next week we might be back at another bar so keep an eye out. Things have changed in the past couple weeks. Our regular video shoot location, The Druid, has closed and is undergoing rebranding. So we're at Gord's backyard. And Wayne got a haircut. And some much needed counselling, as you'll see in the videos. On top of that we have a special message to one of our fans at the end of video. I know, just like in those Marvel movies, a post-credit scene. A bit of teaser for next season of Amazing Race Canada? Who knows? Comment if you wish. You'd think that after three+ years of doing these video recaps, we'd have things figured out. Sure we ramble but technically, you'd think it would be old hat. Not so much. After taping an entire recap at the Druid, Gord went to check the camera and realized that the memory card was full and the taping stopped somewhere around the 7 minute mark. Rookie mistake. So we had to figure out where we were and then start from there. But we finally did but you can probably tell by how we're speaking a bit faster in the second video, mostly cause we're hungry and we want to get it done. Anyway, Wayne sings cause Amy and Frankie asked him to, plus there's some discussion about a shirtless John A., and other race related stuff. Comment if you wish. After two weeks away, we're back with videos here at Gord and Wayne HQ. Wayne had a nice family holiday in South Africa, jumped off a cliff with his kid like they do in TAR. Gord put AC in his house and then the weather got cold. Here we discuss the episode but also freely admit we are not experts on professional lesbian welders, celebrate how Amy and Frankie brought beer to the mat and wonder if we would U-Turn Julie and Lowell. Looks like Wayne is the evil one in this duo (like we all didn't know that already). Anyway, we're a bit out of practice and the beer was only okay (PBR on sale for us hipsters) but we hope you enjoy it. Leave a comment if you do. Or not. Whatever. Here we are back at the Druid talking about Episode 3 of Season 4. Gord does most of the talking cause Wayne has cold. Also, Gord likes to talk. Not going to say much but this will be our last video for 2 weeks cause Wayne's going on safari with his family in South Africa. He's excited. Gord will be left alone but if he can talk someone into joining him, maybe you'll see a video. As you will notice, we are not in the Druid this time. There was a EuroCup Semi Final starting around the same time we normally go in, and the Druid is a major location for all major footie viewing. There would have been way too many people for us to block off a space and shoot. So we went back to one of our earlier video locations, Gord's backyard. We still have beer and still do our thing. Next week we may be at the Druid but we may get a chance to shoot a recap following a viewing party with Joel and Ashley at the River Cree Casino in Enoch. Hope you enjoy our videos this week. Wayne has a theory about why people were taking buses instead of driving Chevy trucks, Gord agrees the theory makes sense and we talk about a team that's become our favourites. If you want to comment, please do so, but be nice. Not only is Amazing Race Canada back with a vengeance, so are Gord and Wayne with their weekly video recaps from Edmonton's Druid Pub. We're not as dramatic and exciting as the first episode but we try. Hope you enjoy this. And if you're in Edmonton, we're usually at the Druid doing the vids on Wednesdays, around lunchtime. Come by and say hi. Two videos this week. Leave comments if you can. It's the final Gord and Wayne video recap of Amazing Race Canada Season 3. We've had lots of fun doing these recaps this year, mostly because we shoot it on location at one of our fav Edmonton pubs, the Druid on Jasper. Thanks to Jane, Little Marco and Big Marco at the Druid for letting us come in, drink beer and talk about Amazing Race Canada. Great people, great place. Not sure what we'll we do with ourselves on Thursdays for the next while, probably just go to the Druid and hang out at lunch. Thanks to all of you folks for watching and enjoying our antics. Today, Wayne's a bit subdued cause his kid's been sick all week but he managed to make Gord cry. Off-camera of course. See ya later. Back at the Druid after a very special Amazing Race Canada. This leg took place in Edmonton, our hometown, and featured some great parts of the city. Also, we can officially say that Gord was an extra in the show, one of the drinkers during the Roadblock at Fort Edmonton Park. Classic Gord, at a bar when things are happening. It was pretty cool to see him on the big TV while racers came in to do the task. Unfortunately, that's all Gord can say about his appearance on the race, that he was an extra. |
