Bubbles: That sounds like a fantastic school Ricky, How to Work a Blowtorch School.
Have you found somewhere to stay in while you're in New Zealand?
J: I hope so.
R: There's not many trailer parks over there are there? There's caravan parks but they're like campgrounds. Maybe we'll start one if we can find some cheap enough land to make some coin there.
J: Living in a trailer park is great, it's just like camping all year round. People would love it.
And do you often have issues getting through security at the airport, given your prison records?
Julian: Every single time.
B: I'm a little bit worried about what the authorities are going to say about Ricky's extensive record.
R: I wanted to swim over, but apparently it's pretty far so I guess that's out of the question.
And what can we expect from the show?
B: I'd call it a cavalcade of craziness. It starts with me blasting myself out of a cannon from the back of the auditorium. And then I land in a big net on stage, and then some lions come out, and I tame them. And then I do some trapeze work, some highwire work on a motorcycle up on the trapeze wire, and that's just the start.
What do Ricky and Julian do while this is happening?
B: They're both like my assistants. They have the one-piece jumpsuits on, they've got flames on them, and they run around, and strap each other with hot mops, and grab each other downstairs, just silly little things.
R: Bubbles, what the hell are you talking about? I don't remember any of that.
B: Just go with it Ricky, I'm trying to sell tickets.
Bubbles, you had dreams to open up your own cat care facility Kittyland, have you had to put that dream on hold for a while?
B: I've got Kittyland Love Centre up and running right now actually, I've got about 121 clients that bring their kitties by at different intervals. I wash them and cut their nails, and do some belly work on them, and that's what I do for a living now. It's a fantastic job.
And what are you looking forward to most about this trip to New Zealand?
J: I'm looking forward to meeting some ladies from New Zealand myself, visiting a few strip clubs. In the United States they never take it all off, but I've heard they do down in New Zealand.
R: Yeah I'm looking forward to talking to a bunch of the farmers down there, and finding out if they grow the same way we do in Canada, talking about different techniques, doing some research.
B: I'm just looking forward to meeting some local people and having a drink with them and maybe smoking some stuff and then maybe start rapping on some ladies. I hope everyone's ready to do some serious partying, cos that's what we're coming for.
