Roz & Mocha

This week on the Roz and Mocha Retro Show, things get downright fowl as the crew dives beak‑first into all things chicken. From the wild discovery in 2015 that you could actually rent a chicken in Toronto, to revisiting the 2015 Chicken Dance era, and even throwing it back to 2013 when Maurie was genuinely stressed about running out of chickens, this episode proves one thing: the show has always been unhinged when poultry is involved.

A newly married listener can’t shake the resentment over a missing wedding card that keeps getting mentioned but never delivered, another is struggling to coexist now that her husband is home all the time and suddenly controls the movies, the bathroom, and the routine, while someone else feels trapped between a spouse who wants to move their growing family for a better future and a controlling parent who still calls the shots. Weighing loyalty, resentment, compromise, and how much is too much to swallow before saying something.

WrestleMania reactions, Raptors playoff frustration, and chaos around candy binges, gym etiquette, and accidentally swallowing toothpaste. The episode also features Maurie’s interviews with Heated Rivalry costume designer Hanna Puley, Mark Wahlberg and Paul Walter Hauser on Balls Up, and Devon Hansen, the son of Canadian astronaut Jeremy Hansen, talking about the historic Artemis II mission. Plus, a Helluva Story that has the room stunned as one listener explains how they went to sleep for surgery and woke up with a completely different accent.

Airlines are shortening movie titles to make them fit seat‑back screens, Artemis II astronauts are opening up about an intense re‑entry back to Earth, and Law & Order: Organized Crime is officially finished, with Christopher Meloni getting emotional saying goodbye to fans. There’s new hype after Kevin Feige teased Avengers: Doomsday at CinemaCon, Lana Del Rey dropped a theme song for a new James Bond video game, gas prices are down across the country, a humanoid robot just beat a half‑marathon world record, and a hot air balloon made an emergency landing in a man’s backyard.

Who would win a home run derby sparks debate, with Mocha topping most lists and Maurie happily placing himself last after a close call at a Jays game. Roz breaks down his favourite rock bands — AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Queen, The Black Crowes, and The Cure — and talks about how hearing his kid play guitar has brought those songs back into his life. The group also reveals the one app they couldn’t live without, from banking and Instagram to Google Maps and Uber Eats, exposing just how differently everyone relies on their phone.
