Originally Aired on June 20th, 2018, This episode is the first successful recording with Gord (He hadn't agreed to be a Co-Host at this point)The following program is for adult audiences only. This is, this is Eric and Gord. What if we're right, live right now. Are you ready? Find and like us on Facebook. Follow us on Instagram. I don't have anything to drink. I hate my life. Here we go on 3, 2, 1, 0. Well, hi there. Happy Sunday. It's June the 10th. And I'm Eric talking at you as always, from beautiful downtown Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, where if you have to argue the semantics between sexual assault and rape, you've probably already gone too far.Okay, we'll call that long enough. That's a little shorter than normal. Welcome to, is it Just Me, a special Sunday edition. The reason we're doing a special Sunday edition is because I am canceling, um, Eric Brennan's Sunday School. Eric Bre Sunday School is just too much work or too little reward. Uh, maybe I'll pick it up again in the future, but it's really hard to do what we do on camera and, uh, try to make it fun and interesting, um, with substandard equipment.So that was a long-winded thing to talk about. Um, welcome to the show everybody. Podcasting. Fm, very happy to be back working with Anchor FM because it just opens up a whole bunch of new doors. This doesn't mean that I'm abandoning speaker.com because they just opened three new doors for us too. So that's three more platforms where you can listen to this show.Um, and plus, with what Anchor does for us, it's pretty much anywhere you can hear a podcast. You can hear me and Gord, speaking of Gord, how are you tonight sir? I am fantastic. How you doing buddy? I am, we're almost four minutes into a whole recording, so I'm doing really well.We'll take our victories while we can get 'em. Exactly. How is the Province of Ontario? No one's burned it down yet. No, no, we haven't started the the riots yet, so we're doing okay with that. I'm happy with the weather. We haven't had any sweltering heat for this last, uh, almost week, so I've been pretty happy with that too.That's been nice as a, uh, that's fantastic. As a fat ginger, I am not a fan of the heat, so, you know,you know, after, after all, you've got winter coming in about a week or Yeah. Something that, yeah, it's usually about every three weeks you get a good blast of winter.We're, uh, we're pretty standard Vancouver weather here. It's been, uh, cloudy and dreary and can't make up its mind. It won't rain, but it won't get nice. Perfect. Uh, very despondent weather. Yeah. The very atypical BC weather.Need a Woody Allen soundtrack playing. All right. I am I making weird noises here? I don't know. So, um, little disorganized tonight. I wasn't expecting to be, but I am behind schedule trying to get the mobile studio up and running. Uh, so Gord, did you wanna start us off tonight with, uh, maybe pick up some stuff you didn't get to say last night?Um, or whatever you like. Well, one thing I didn't get to touch up on last night, um, I did a Facebook post about this, um, the other day. Um, I had, uh, you know, I'm out here, I'm, you know, getting, trying to get some new work going and, uh, first of all, Ontario is very sexist in what they're willing to hire you for.I have actually only walked into three separate companies and asked about a job, and all three times I've been told specifically, sorry, you're a guy that is for women only. And, uh, well, I have never such a thing. It was unbelievable. Um, that was all three for, for customer service based jobs. Um, two was to work in a bar as a server.I was just flat out told, no, if you wanna work in the back of the kitchen, no problem, but we don't have dudes in the front. Um, and the other one was for an office job. And I was told, no, no, no office jobs are for women. And it was a woman who told me this. I do believe that is against the law, but I don't know Ontario law.Oh, it is the very definition of sexism against the law. Absolutely. But uh, yeah, it is what it is. And welcome to Ontario. So as a guy, the funny thing, yeah.I wanna know if anyone else has encountered this. I want send in an email to maybe it's me forty2@gmail.com. Have you ever experienced sexism in a word, male or female? Uh, call in and, uh, a message here on Echo, echo fm, uh, phone number. 3, 4, 3 9, 7 4 5. And leave a message and please specify if you don't want your message played on the show.'cause if you don't specify, we will play it. Have you experienced sex at all in applying for a job? I can tell you, like as a guy, this is the first time in my life I've ever actually experienced this. In a sense, reverse sexism, if you will. Uh,You're here a job, you will work in the warehouse. I'm like, I don't wanna work in the warehouse. I'm fucking old. I'm, my body is half falling apart and it's not what I wanna do anymore. Put me in front of people. No, no, no. I'm gonna get you slinging because you're a guy. Shocking. You...
