S05/E07 deep dive – A Letterkenny Christmas: Three Wise Men

Thoughts/Theories/Trivia/Terms/Observations/Trivia: (0:28:37 - 0:45:51)

Movies shown in Katy’s collection – The Fallen Elf and My Dog’s a Rudolph
The first showing of Littlekenny
Did Mark Forward write the Barb story he told Wayne?
Odd that Tanis complains about her nails not being dry, yet:
- Calls the party “the salliest”
- Complains about the apron being sexist.
Jingle Juice is basically Jungle Juice from the Uncle Eddie’s Trust episode
All shot in one location
Odd continuity.
- Glen had already lost his job, but he talks about them bringing in a guest pastor for the Xmas service.
- The episode happens after Back to Back to Back, yet Stewart is there are has obviously NOT yet gone to rehab.
Who is the person in the Uncle Eddie pic?
How is Wayne supposedly reading Dan’s mail? Does Dan live with them?
Who is "Reverend Bolillo" a reference to?
Teddy Kim is a reference to Theo Kim who was a director/producer of the LK Problem web shorts.
- The Reindeer Effect doesn’t appear to be a real movie.
Throwback to "bad gas travels fast".
Wayne made dad noises sitting in the chair.
So much hair-play going on.
Serial killers mentioned in the episode.
Was this episode shot digitally?
All the drinks mentioned are actual drinks.
Timbits!!!
Jared trying to keep from cracking up was hilarious!
Who still does disposable cameras?!?!?

Fuck – Fight – FERDA: (0:45:51 - 1:05:00)

The spirit of the HOLY FERDA has taken over for most folks.
Bonnie, for the first time, is getting FUCKS from all!
R&J and TANIS are gonna catch these hands!

Thanks to:
- Guest: Jake Whitco of Wrestlethon
- Music: Finding Freedom

S05/E06 deep dive – Bock et Biche (0:15:10 - 0:29:38)

Thoughts/Theories/Trivia/Questions/Observations: (0:29:38 - 0:40:46)

Trivia/Term: A “bock et biche” is not really a thing in Quebec, but it is, by other names, in Ontario and Manitoba (stag and doe, wedding social, etc…). It’s NOT a bachelor/bachelorette party, but a party to help raise money for the bridge and groom to help pay for wedding expenses.
Trivia: the whisky they drink is called Guy & Bruce. It has cats on it.
Trivia: Their Salon d’Agriculture is basically the French Ag Hall.
Observation: Look how wide open Wayne’s eyes are when looking at “The woman”.

!!!SPOILER ALERT!!! (0:40:46 - 0:50:00)

Fuck – Fight – FERDA: (0:50:00 - 0:57:34)

S05/E04 recap – Letterkenny Spelling Bee (0:10:00 - 0:11:25)

S05/E05 deep dive – Back to Back to Back (0:11:25 - 0:27:48)

Thoughts/Theories/Trivia/Questions/Observations: (0:27:48 - 0:39:57)

Trivia/Term: When Dan says “That’s a Texas Sized 2-6” he’s referring to what they call, in Canada, a two-six or, in USA, a 26 fluid oz bottle of booze.
Term: Ringette – A non-contact, team sport played on ice. The object of the game is to score more goals than the opposing team. A goal is scored when a player (or skater), shoots an 8” rubber ring into the opponents net. Basically, it’s the flag football version of hockey.
Question: Wayne says “Still no heaters in here, eh? I remember Letterkenny mounting the 50”. I don’t know what that means.
Observation: There’s an ad for “Jim Dickens Auction House” in the hockey rink.
Observation: Connor and Darien both have papers to read for Stewart’s intervention.
Question: Did Shoresy do is last "chirp" at the team to try and get them to win?
Trivia: Texas Mickey is Canadian slang for a LARGE bottle of hard alcohol.
Observations: References to Kelsey Grammer and the Cheers theme.

Fuck – Fight – FERDA: (0:39:57 - 0:54:50)

The only one getting ALL the sex - Gae!
Shoresy, as usual, is getting his ass kicked.
So much FERDA for everyone else.

Katy's side ponytails
Stewart's first "WONDROUS".

FERDA for just about everyone else.

Recap of S05/E02 – The Ol’ College Try

S05/E03 deep dive – Hard Right Jay

Thoughts/Theories/Trivia/Questions/Observations:

From followers:

Twitter - The Booty Warrior - @xbuckshotlovex

Tanis' best line is from this episode.
- Hard Right Jay: “We don't practice violence.”
- Tanis: “We do.”
Also, it says something when Strt and Roald are freaked out by someone....
"I'm going to troll!" -hard right Jay's best line. Make you wonder. Is he just a troll?

Us:

The paper that Dan's reading at the beginning talks about the Ukrainian legion, meteorologist "weights" in on weird weather.
When Dan picks up “The Letterkenny Banner” paper at the end, there’s an add for an “Adult Spelling Bee” as well as a Dog Adoptathon.
R&J (probably the dumbest of LK) can figure out what’s PC without any issues.
No one bullies Dary about his inability to pronounce breakfast or basket
Wayne confers with Katy before “offering” to fight HRJ.
It’s funny how so many from the alt-right get offended when being called “Nazis”.
The opera at the end was Puccini’s La Rondine
- Aria: Chi il bel sogno diDoretta
- Performed by: Luba Orgonasova

Fuck – Fight – FERDA:

Betty-Anne/Mary-Anne, Katy, Tanis, and Shanaia are all knockin' boots!
HRJ (of course) and Everett are gettin' throttled!
FERDA ferda rest.

Recap of S05/E01 – We Don’t Fight at Weddings
S05/E02 deep dive – The Ol’ College Try

Thoughts/Theories/Trivia/Questions/Observations:

Wayne had taco night too (Indian Tacos), not just the other hicks.
Trivia: The bar that they’re in at the beginning: Ukrainian Centre bar. Gail moved operations here when MoDean’s II burned down.
Theory: In the open, they end with Reilly saying “What’s this about LA?” I wonder if that’s because Dylan has shot movies in LA? Dennis said that he read that was the case. It’s known that Jared has lamented his time as an actor in LA.
Wayne saying “There’s no definition of a woman.” with Tanis following up “Just the same as a man.” Is extremely poignant on the representation on the show.
Tanis is non-monogamous. Not sure what “flavor”.

Fuck – Fight – FERDA:

VERY little sex happening for most, including Tanis!
Wayne and HRJ are catchin' hands (even Tanis getting one scrap)
Everyone else seems to really need a friend.

Thoughts/Theories/Trivia/Questions/Observations: 0:32:47 – 0:49:06

Why does McMurray have the Chicken Dance cassette IN HIS TRACTOR?!?!
Tanis has same opinion as Ron Swanson on clear alcohol.
Dean only likes Gene Wilder in Blazing Saddles
Tanis seems to be leading Wayne into the wedding
Katy and Tanis are okay with situational philandering
Spoilers for season 7 will happen – stay off social media to avoid spoilers
Is Dan’s kilt Scottish?
Sally Ann – Salvation Army
Why wasn’t Glen doing the wedding?

Fuck – Fight – FERDA: 49:06 - 1:00:02

There’s LOTS of sexy times being had with the Hicks, Tanis, and Dax & Ron.
FERDA for Bonnie, R&J, Roald, and McMurray

- One thing I neglected to do last time was to give a shout out on behalf of PiGuy for the Patreon/community/podcast network of “Gamefully Unemployed”. I did go in after the episode was already released and put in a pre-roll ad for them, but, of course, I fucked it up slightly and misread one of the host’s names as “Tim” instead of “Tom”. Tom and Dave started Gamefully Unemployed after they lost their jobs at Cracked.com. They’re on Twitch so they do games, watch movies, and other cool stuff.
  You can find them on Twitter at @GamefullyUn or on Patreon at GamefullyUnemployed (all one word).
  Their exclusive podcasts are:
  - Tom and Jeff Watch Batman (a deep dive into all things Batman in video form)
  - Fox Mulder is a Maniac (an analysis of the X-Files with the premise that Fox Mulder is actually, clinically insane.
  - They also have a complimentary network called “Story Mode” where they talk pop culture, review movies, play D&D, and lots more.

Brief recap of: Great Day for Thunder Bay
Deep dive into: Super Hard Easter

Thoughts/Theories/Trivia/Questions (0:30:35 – 0:46:18):

From our Degens:

Ryan Devlin (via hosts@howareyanowpod.com) | Have you ever seen Dary more excited about anything? He is outright giddy about his turn this year.In the scene at the end with McMurray and Wayne…What do you think Wayne was trying to tell McMurray? I feel like it may have been something to the effect of them being good buddies if it wasn’t so goddamn hard to communicate.
The Booty Warrior (via Twitter @xbuckshotlovex) | I wonder what special or holiday they may this upcoming year… hmm
Trevor (via Twitter @cTrain014) | Squirrelly Dan recounting the very first Easter is one of the funniest things I’ve ever heard. K Trevor Wilson nails that delivery so hard.
Regan (via Discord) | Theory:
The way Dary paints his Easter eggs is the same way that his mom painted Easter eggs.
Awesome (via Discord) | Me:
Is that a trivia orrrr????ashamedofyourself:just a random headcanon/theoryhere’s an observation: Wayne (and by extension, Katy) knows enough about Irish folklore to correct Darry on what the Wild Hunt is.(lending further credence to my theory that at least one of their parents was Irish Irish)Me:I thought the Wild Hunt was more mainland Europe?ashamedofyourself:it’s one of those pan-celtic myths. mostly seen in pre-christian gaelic areasit was Heavily Romanticised by a lot of Victorian writers during the Celtic Revival period

From us:

Even the Skids “don’t fuck with tradition”.
Wayne only sticks with tradition when it suits him.
Katy always having to remind Wayne that he’s the one that’s always saying “You don’t fuck with tradition!” when he’s the one trying to buck tradition.
Theory: McMurray is doing his talking-over Wayne on purpose.
Alternate theory: McMurray just REALLY wants to be Wayne’s friend
Trivia:
- First open without Wayne
- There’s a painting of Roald behind Roald
- The initiating of “What could be so urgent?”

Fuck – Fight – FERDA!!! (0:46:18 – 0:56:39)
