Happy Thanksgiving, Canada! Welcome back to CCC, the longest-running (and least popular) podcast from the south part of Kanata South. We’re coming to you this week fully rested and slightly chaotic after a memorable cottage weekend at JBs.
This episode is packed with seasonal goodness, starting with the long-awaited and oft-postponed trip to JB's cottage. We finally made it, and the highlight was undoubtedly an amazing barge around JB's lake. Forget speedboats; JB’s pontoon barge provided the perfect backdrop for cold drinks, bad jokes, and pure, uninterrupted cottage bliss as the fall colours began to pop.
Of course, a cottage trip means great food! We recap the culinary triumphs, from amazing sausages that DDT took too many of when he should of just been sampling, to JBs favorite: the parasitic wild boar meat. DDT fell asleep, but that didn't stop the party. We also dive into the unexpected failure of the weekend: the disk golf that never happened. We packed the disks, but between the barge, the eating, and a shared enthusiasm for doing absolutely nothing, the game remained sadly unplayed—a perfect metaphor for life's simpler priorities. When we weren't eating, we were satisfying our collective guilty pleasure by watching truly awful, straight-to-DVD movies otherwize known as our Lanark Pics. We break down the most baffling special effects and nonsensical plots.
Bringing us back to reality, we dissect the glorious insanity of October baseball and our Blue Jays! We’re on the edge of our seats for the playoffs, making our (likely doomed) World Series predictions and arguing over the wildcard matchups. This leads us to a deeper discussion on a favorite theme: the truth that more money doesn't matter when stacked against the simple joy of a cottage weekend and good company.
Finally, we transition from philosophy to the practical with a guaranteed crowd-pleaser: a great pasta sauce recipe for the fall. This hearty, flavourful sauce—featuring slow-roasted garlic and a secret ingredient—is the perfect addition to your kitchen lineup for the chilly months ahead.
All this and more from Kanata South's longest running and least popular podcast. Thanks for sticking with us! Have a wonderful, safe, and Happy Thanksgiving, Canada!
