Re: Trailer Park Boys

This interview was done back in 2008 live on a CBC station. Not sure if he thought Dunsworth is actually the character and would be easily cowed but he was very wrong. Audio seems to be a bit ahead of speakers but not much.

Re: Goon vs. Goon. Don't need it!

To be a bit contrarian, there is one aspect to the goon fighting that actually helps the game. I've seen many games that were escalating in chippiness until the two goons square off then everyone gets back to hockey. It's as if they all get their frustration out through osmosis. It certainly doesn't...
