The Pepper and Dylan Show Podcast. Um, you're sounding cozy, you're settled in. Yeah, I'm here in the corner. A lot of people saying it's not fair to keep you away from the Oilers game tonight. I agree. I don't think anything's fair. I think this should be me just relaxing and enjoying life. I guess you'll have to earn it today. Right. We're getting in. We're going to give you your phone. Now, Robbie had an idea.
here with you now listen we're on that we're just entering into who knows how long this is going to be We've decided the official amount when Dylan can leave the A&W is $202,222. Okay? As soon as we break that... He's done. He's done his duty at the A&W. In Devon. Which we know have no booths. Is that correct? Are you now verifying that now that you're sitting in the lobby? It is very small and there are no booths. Okay.
Have you found a place to sleep yet? Like a corner of the restaurant you think would be ideal? No. No, no, no, no, no. It's very, like I said, very Um, and, uh... Yeah, I don't know. There's nowhere to put really anything. What's going to happen? Can you stretch out? If you were to stretch out and create a little sleeping nook for yourself, would it be...
Would you be in everybody's way? Is there any way to just tuck away in the corner somewhere? Nope. Not really. Right now, I'm situated as you walk in the front door. I am at, you can see me perfectly, I'm looking right out the front door and I am right beside the employees only entrance. Okay. kind of it's a table by itself so that I like that so I'm not in people's way right and then um The bathroom is right behind me, so it's a quaint little A&W, much like the town I'm in.
It's beautiful. It's wonderful. The owners and the staff have already come out offering me breakfast numerous times, which I've had to decline, which they've looked at me like, are you sure? Were they ready for you? They were giving the heads up that you were coming? Yeah I think so. They don't seem weirded out that someone wants to live here. Okay.
Do you have access to the bathroom? Do you need to ask for a key every second? Nothing worse than having to ask for a key to the bathroom. I hate asking for a key to the bathroom. For some reason, yeah. Or you have free reign over the bathroom? It's free reign. It's a Papa bathroom right behind me. Okay. Well, the problem is it might be
It might be for customers only, and as it stands right now, you're not allowed to eat any ANW. I know. I think someone just waved at the building. Hi to you in the black car. Okay. Yeah, this isn't what I envisioned. Every time you get your hands on anything, you ruin it, is the problem. I get my hands on anything? My plan was to take the week off and sit in A&W and play my Switch and just enjoy life, read a book, eat A&W, and be happy while people made money.
Now all of a sudden, I'm not allowed any perks of life. It's going to be uncomfortable. You're trying to make it miserable for me, and I don't like that. Well, no, because you can get all of these things, plain and simple. We can make this. Well, let's start going. Like, I'll do jumping jacks or whatever you need. Okay, well, while you were getting all this stuff set up, did you say you're on number four?
More? Is that what you said? Merlin plus tie line one. Tie line one. Okay. Hang on. Let me find that here. We'll see if it even works right now. Okay. I don't know here. No reason not to sample it out live on the air. Let's see. Okay. Dooby-doo. Okay. Go ahead. Give it a try, Dylan. Yeah, yeah. All right. yeah we can hear you okay okay well let me I should hang up the phone okay now look at that he's got his own little studio
I already got something for you there. That one nice. You don't even have to earn a level of money to get to that one, right?
Well, this is more for you than me. I don't care our phones easy. Okay, so we've decided to be easy on you in the beginning Okay, so we started the morning at a hundred and fifty five thousand. What was it six hundred twenty five dollars already a hundred dollars is coming When you hit $156,000, so $275 away with citywide 50-50 tickets, we're going to give you your first selection.
Okay, your first option. You're going to get to make your first choice. Although, and I want you to hear this, because Robbie had a really good idea with his girlfriend Janice last night. And he brought it in here first thing this morning. And I'm like, I don't know, he might be onto something. Because our audience oft likes to see us suffer through things, likes to see us pay certain levels of punishment. Robbie's idea is you start with everything. And every time $1,000 comes in,
We remove one thing. Yeah, that's dumb. I don't like that. You don't like that? That sounds horrible. It gets worse as I stay longer? Well, do we want something that's worse or do we want something that continues to slowly improve Dylan's quality of life at the A&W?
or slowly deteriorates Dylan's quality of life. I just have a feeling people want to see you suffer. So even though the suffering will be worse... What kind of people want to see me suffer? That's ridiculous. Even though the suffering will be worse, it won't be as long. So that's up to you. Do you want to stretch it out or do you want to get it over with quick? I don't want to come back to work this week, so let's get it over quick. Well, is that quick or is that slow? I mean, $202,222 is...
There is no reason we can't get that this morning. It's so ambitious, Dylan. People love 50-50s. Here's a text message that says, I will donate $100 right now so he can eat. Oh, that's C. Whoever that is, save their number. One sausage link. That's it. I'll take it. That's great. I have lettuce packed, like literally lettuce. You could have a sausage lettuce wrap. Now, you can eat those vegetables at your own free will, okay? Those vegetables that your girlfriend packed and that deck of...
of salting soda crackers and the little jar of chickpeas. I don't know if you should have the chickpeas if you're going to be in a public place for the next few days. Totally. Yeah. But you can have all that. You have free reign over that little snack, okay? Whenever you feel like a snack, you grab a stick of celery or a piece of broccoli.
That's totally fine. That sounds awesome. But if you want something from the counter at A&W, you've got to earn it. So at $156,000, we'll give you your first choice for the morning. Here's where people might really thunder in and help Dylan out. knowing that you do not have access to the Oilers game. We have not permitted you access to the Oilers game yet.
And the superstition. No, I have access to nothing. I don't even have access to my wicked lounge chair that I brought. You brought your chair? Well, no, I brought a version of it. I got a zero gravity comfy folded chair. Okay, well, you can earn that as well. I also brought a cot in here. A camping cot just in case. In case you earn that at any point. Right now, you've got a pillow. That's all you've got.
Yeah, I left it in the car because I'm really not that excited for just a pillow. There's really no way for you to stretch out. No booths, no anything. So if you're going to stretch out, you're going to be on the floor tonight. so far unless you earn a place to sleep tonight and you know the weirdest thing it's not like a nice carpeted floor it's like a tile floor that's how it works yeah Yeah, I didn't think of that.
It's gonna be awesome. Like, listen, you just watch and see. The good people of Devon will show up in droves. And they will throw their money down. And next thing you know, it will be at $202,000 by 9 o'clock this morning. You guys will be, what's happening? I don't understand. Why is he?
Why didn't he come in the rest of the week? You know why? Because he's relaxing at home because he raised so much money. $155,825 now, Dylan. So you're $175 away from your first choice. That's what I'm saying. That's it. Things are looking up. Okay, so we'll give you that in a few minutes. He's at the Devon in A&W until further notice. Through around the clock, through the night, until $202,222 can be raised. Okay, we'll chat with you in a little bit there, Dylan.
Sounds good. Okay, get your Citywide 50s 50 tickets at kisscitywide5050.com. The Pepper and Dylan Podcast. Keep on growing. That's what I want to hear. I want it to be big, big, big money. He's an hour and a half into his life at Devon. This is his life until further notice. His living... an AMW. A decision that he made completely on his own. And one that I will never
the smell in here alone is worth working here. When we hit 100 thousand dollars he was given his first choice of his stay at the devon a&w we gave him the choice of a team burger or a Everyone's shocked. Why did you choose the blanket? That is a very unusual choice for you to make. Because it was so early, and not knowing if a blanket would come around again, I know that I have a lunchbox full.
If I really, really got in a tough situation, I could eat celery. Yeah, Melissa sent me, your girlfriend sent me a picture of all the delicious that you certainly must have had in mind when this idea of living at the A&W came up that you have to choose from, like some saltine crackers, a bowl of chickpeas, celery, broccoli, cabbage, and lettuce.
Yeah, that's not at all what I was thinking, and I hope that's not what this is going to be. But, I mean, that's why I picked the blanket first thing, and I know that we're going to raise a ton of money today, so I'll have lots of options to get food throughout the day. So every $1,000 you get's a choice.
We're at $156,835. Oh, look how close we are. In this segment, we could give you your next option, right? Yes. He has no say on what the two things to choose from are. Will they come back around? Who knows? He may not get another chance at a Teen Burger. That might have been his only one. I don't know. we're just trying to make it as difficult as we can while he stays there right we know a lot of you want him to come want
on the show. It's a little clunky with him on his little delayed little radio machine. Is that weird? It sounds okay. I just miss your face. Aw, man, I miss your forehead, too. At least the top of his forehead. Robbie, do you realize in 19 years I've never seen his full face? I know, it's wild. I don't know what Dylan looks like. I couldn't pick him out of a lineup. All I see is his forehead every day. I know.
That's it. That's my view of Dylan. For 19 years, my view of Dylan has been eyebrows up to the top of his head. But you like that, don't you? Wish I could see the whole thing. Because I've heard. You could if you come down to Devin. Yeah, I could. $156,935. Yes.
Thank you, everyone, for doing this. This is really, really appreciated. We're raising money by the second. And whether or not you're doing it to help me out, and I really appreciate it, or you're helping out kids, but remember, if you... wherever you donate from that's where the chapter it goes to so if it's if you're donating from devon it's going to the devon chapter of kids board right which is really really cool because not only are you entered to win
is likely going to be a huge jackpot. You're also helping out the community you live in, which is just a cool, cool opportunity. Robby, have we surpassed the largest 50-50 jackpot yet? No, we're getting very, very close, though, aren't we? Yeah, I think they want $81,000 or $82,000. Okay. Right? So we're so close. We're really, really close to passing previous citywide 50-50 jackpots. And we're still with over two weeks to go. Early bird draw on a Friday...
$156,935. We'll give it a couple more minutes here in this segment to see if we can give you your next choice. Oilers fans, superstitious Oilers fans, especially. Be aware right now that as it stands this moment, Dylan does not have an option to watch the Oilers game.
He says he's the lucky charm because he's watched every game, which means he also watched the first two. So I don't know how much of a lucky charm he might be. Oh, I'm lucky. But we don't want to do anything to jinx this entire thing. So if you want him to see the Oilers game tonight, that could be an option later on today. Make your citywide 50-50 donations. Yep. Or it's all about $156,935. No.
Oh, don't worry. People are just filling out their credit card information right now. Boom. It's going to be no problem. Robbie asked, do you have air fresheners or is that only at our other pop-up that's happening this morning?
Yeah, I wasn't allowed to bring anything, so I don't have absolutely anything. You don't even have the air fresheners. Well, if you stay there a long time, it'd probably be a good idea for you to have a few air fresheners. Just rub them all over, for sure. So he has no deodorant. Right, Dylan? No deodorant.
Well, I wore a deodorant this morning and I have it in a bag somewhere. But you have no access to it? No toothbrush? There's a pillow and a blanket. And his cell phone. That's all he's got. Doesn't have a surface to sleep on. We'd heard, but it can be confirmed there are no booths at the ANW. $156,985, Dylan. Yes. Oh, we're so close. $15 more, and we'll give you your option. All right? Is it going to be... Good option.
All right, all right $15 that's all we need for the next option Robbie's got an idea on what he wants to offer you here I do. KissCityWide5050.com. You can buy your tickets right there. Let's get 15 more dollars. We're going to stay here until we get 15 dollars. It's all it is. If I was allowed to buy tickets, I would. In the meantime, yeah.
Yes, Robbie. The idiom frog in your throat? Yes, please. It likely originated from the medieval practice of using a frog as a supposed treatment for a sore throat. What? Yeah. You'd lick a toad? I thought when you did that you got totally wrecked. That's different. That's different. Some believe that placing a frog headfirst into a patient's mouth could help draw out infection and cure the sore throat. This practice, while absurd, may have contributed to the phrase's origin. What? Yeah.
Part of it. There's no confirmed origin story of that phrase, frog in your throat. But that could have contributed to it. Well, they didn't have MRIs back then either, Dylan. Modern medicine has come a long way since putting frogs in your throat to get rid of infections, you know? $156,985 ¡Suscríbete! ¡Gracias! There it is! Alright, Ellen, here we go. We're at 156. $2,085. His next choice is $915 away. But here we go. will never understand in my life. You don't understand.
be living here all right robbie you have option one OPTION ONE FOR THIS CHARGE Robbie, what is it? I was gonna say, he can either choose... A single body burger. You know I'm one of those little guys. A buddy or a pillow, hey? Well, he's got one pillow. And no cheese on the buddy. How hungry are you right now? Remember your freedom? baggage salary that your girlfriend got to. Yes at any moment, right?

Okay. It does have a pillow. You do have the pillow. Okay. A pillow's already here. Okay, then how about the Buddy Burger or a sleep mask? Oh, your sleep mask. Yeah, your little sleep mask.
Those that missed it. Melissa packed a bunch of things. That's Dylan's. And told me what it was, but you have no idea. It's all just packed in a duffel bag, right? Yeah, I have no idea. Okay. So she did pack his favorite every night routine.

The pepper and
The Pepper and Dylan Show podcast. Shay, good morning. Good morning. So Shay has reached out to us on behalf of your son. Is your son with you right now? He is. Okay, we've got to send out some good vibrations, some good vibes. The city. collectively here. We're sending half of them out to the Oilers and the other half to Shay. Ah, we'll send seven-eighths of them to the Oilers and one-eighth to your son. Okay, Shay? What's your son's name? His name's Micah. Micah? Yeah. Okay. Micah.
What can we do? How does Micah need our help? Well, he turned 14 in March, and he's just been super eager to join the workforce. This past Sunday, he got on his bike and he passed out a bunch of resumes. And yesterday, he got a call for his very first interview. Wow! Okay! All right, where is the interview? I love that Micah, you can tell he's 14. He's just mortified right now. Mom! You don't have to get on the freedom! Mom!
Little Micah peddling away. Good for you, Micah, for wanting a job, though. There are a lot of lazy slunks that have no interest in getting... They won't even mow the lawn for $20, for God's sake. So good for you. Where is your interview, Micah? Uh, Tim Hortons. Sorry, Tim Hortons? Tim Hortons, yeah. Okay, what time is the interview? It's at 4.30. 4.30. Okay. Okay. What are you going to wear? No. I don't have any fancy shirt. No, I don't have a suit.
You gotta get a shirt and a tie. What's your waist size? 34? I got some suits. He's 14 years old. I made my son. He was just like you, Micah. He got a job at A&M. It was his first job, and he had to go for his interview, and he was gonna just go in a hoodie with the hoodie string in his mouth. Oh, I hate that so much, Robbie. Don't do that, Micah. And he was just gonna go, and I said, no, no, no, you've got a dress to impress. So I made him wear a shirt and tie.
He looked pretty sharp. And you know what? They gave him the job on the spot. Wow. He beat out all of the applicants, to which there were none. So they tell you, though, they tell you, dress for the job you want, not the job you have. I don't think you have to wear a suit at Tim Hortons. So maybe that's not the biggest deal in the world. He's wearing an apron? Wearing an apron. Are you nervous, Micah? Yes. What advice has your mom given you for this job interview?
Um, looks confident. Make good eye contact. Eye contact, huge, yes. Yep, we did a mock interview last night, and he did really well. Did he do okay? Oh, how proud are you right now, Mom?
I'm so tired. I know. I know. Okay, well, guess what? Then he starts getting scheduled for shifts at 7 a.m. on Saturday. Guess who has to drive him there? I know. Well, good luck, Micah. Remember, if you don't know the answer only you know you don't know so you answer it like you do know lies are the way to get the jobs you want Michael never lie
Do you have any experience? Oh, yeah, I used to manage a Robbins donut ten years ago. You're just laying on thick, Micah. Oh, boy. Don't do that. Good luck, Shay. Let us know how it goes, okay? The first job. Love you. See you later. You got it. Good luck, buddy. Alright. I got his first job. So adorable. Didn't you help get him that job? I called Anna. because we know that people Glad to end it.
I was like, hey, can you just humor the kid a little bit? And by the end, I'm getting hired. That's good. The Pepper and Dylan Show podcast. So to recap, get you all up to speed. Dylan is living at the Devon A&W until further notice. That further notice is when the citywide 50-50 hits a jackpot to which it has never achieved before. $202,222. The minute we cross that $202,222 threshold, Dylan is released from his Home is temporary home of the Devon A&W.
In the meantime, we give him options at every thousand dollars on a luxury item to make us stay a little more comfortable. His last choice was, or sorry, we spun the wheel. The last thing you got was a box of Kleenex because Dylan needs his Kleenex, right? I'm so happy the Kleenex is now stuck here right beside me. Also, my girlfriend has texted. She says that you guys are being way too easy on me. I love her. I love her. I don't know. You can maybe talk to her.
I don't want to bring her on. I would prefer her not. Well, I'm curious to know what she means by that. So, once we hit 100 sale, we're $105 away from the next spin of the wheel for you to get a luxury item. He still has not earned Euler's viewing rights yet this morning.
All right, so he is not watching the game if it were to happen right now. Hey, Melissa, what do you mean we're being too easy on him now? What can we do to make this harder? What would you like, Melissa? You're the girl who tell us. I don't know. I just feel like he's
He seems like he's having a good time. He gets to eat donuts. Yeah, I think he's getting too much. Well, that was the kind of conversation I had at home yesterday when Coral was like, is Dylan really going to be living at the... at the Devon A&W and I said yes people buy tickets to get him home or people not buy tickets to let him stay And I don't know what the idea here is because either
I think you want to torture Dylan and bring him back early, or you want to not buy tickets and let him stay, or is it the other way around? I don't know. What was his preparation like yesterday, Melissa? Oh, he didn't do much. He was just excited to go and he felt like he was going to just breeze through this and he was going to be home by tonight, I think. Did you honestly think that, Dylan? Yes, I'm gonna be home by tonight. I still think that. What do you mean? Why? Because it's $202,000.
Yeah, but Edmonton loves a 50-50. We do. Devin loves supporting anything at all. Right. They're an amazing little town here. I mean, I just see it happening. I see... I see somebody lifting me on their shoulders later on tonight celebrating me. That's all I can see when I close my eyes. Melissa, you took the time to pack a bunch of care packages and you put a lot of love and care into this, but not a lot because you really limited some of these packages.
the nose package, which was just a box of Kleenex. Not really a package as much as just a box of Kleenex. There's the mouth package, Dylan, that we haven't explored. It's a toothbrush, toothpaste, and four flossers. He doesn't have a toothbrush right now. Keep that in mind. There is no toothbrush right now. He's got the body package, which is some towels and washcloths and deodorants, okay?
A pillow and blanket, and compared to maybe the pillow and blanket that you currently have, this is an upgrade. Is that right, Melissa? All right, you get a fresh outfit, but she is quick to point out in the fresh outfit package that there are no underwear in the fresh outfit package. That is included in the special bun package. I just started out with-
Why do you guys like, like, this was supposed to be just a fun time of me sitting in a restaurant enjoying life. Toilet paper, wet wipes, and, uh, underwear. And then, um, there's an entertainment package to pass the time. Oh, Dylan with Yahtzee. She packed your Yahtzee, Dylan. Oh, I love the Yahtzee. And then, of course, his sleep routine package, including the peppermint oil and the lavender spray and the dainty sleep mask that Dylan can't sleep without every night. Oh, God.
Plus, we've got the Oilers game. You can watch it on your phone if we spin it on the wheel. and obviously menu items at the end of it. We've allowed him to eat one donut, Melissa, from Calmar Banker. We think that that's fair right now, right? When would you like him home, Melissa?
You know, I think when he reaches the goal that he opened his mouth up about. So as long as that change. Yeah, it's kind of nice for a little while, right? Have you turned the heat out of the house now that he's not there to control the temperature of the home? home? Is it a little warmer in there? Are you still walking around with three blankets? No. I imagine he's monitoring it from his phone. Of course he is. Of course you are, Ellen. What are you doing?
I got a camera pointed right at the thermostat, even though I have the thermostat on an app. I just want to make sure I can see any hands and I can pinpoint who it was. Well, love you, Melissa. Thank you for your help with all of this, okay? Yeah, you're welcome. Are you going to visit them or are you just going to enjoy this?
this alone time for a little while. I think I'll go tomorrow when it starts getting uncomfortable for him. Thank you, Melissa. Is it getting uncomfortable yet for you, Dylan? You've got a long way to go, right? It's amazing. It's awesome. I just got a visit from Grant at Casino Steve. I've messaged him to say, come on, have some breakfast. And everyone in Devin's welcome. I hope everyone comes. I want to meet as many new friends as possible.
And I'll hang out. We'll eat. We'll talk. It's going to be an awesome day. You guys. You guys are acting like this is some sort of punishment torture when I'm sitting in an A&W loving life. I hope that...
I hope that it goes for the next three weeks. If I never come back into the studio, I will be more than happy. He has no surface with which to sleep on. We're at $159,995. Five more dollars and we'll spin the wheel again to give you you another luxury item here dylan So you can get them at kisscitywide5050.com.
And we'll see what we can get. Again, a reminder to those that are superstitious, he has watched every Oilers game. But again, he's watched the first two Oilers games, and the good luck really didn't work so much there. You watched the Stanley Cup final last year, didn't you? Yes. Yeah. Yeah, that's true. So he's got no access to the Oilers game if you want him to watch the Oilers game. Oh, we've had $160,095. Now, as much as you're pointed out the good side. out of 160,000.
That means unfortunately, If it were to happen right now, it would be $80,047 for somebody. And it just went up. $160,100. This is the most we've ever given away, ever. but not as close to the jackpot or to the to the level where dylan gets to go home No hundred two thousand or forty two thousand one hundred and two dollars Can I get a request?
Would like to looks so gorgeous outside here and I would like to go for a nice walk this afternoon all right you need to burn off some of that A&W I do write a nice walk would be great a parking lot walk right I want I grant you this because when I did that walk from Dub to down to Fort Saskatchewan, the stretch, the Devon stretch was unbelievable.
It's gorgeous here, right? It's so nice. All you're allowed right now is to walk around the perimeter of the property of A&W. Yeah, you can do laps like a prisoner. Yeah, I know. That's not ideal. All right, let's spin the wheel, Robbie. Here we go. Where's it going to land? at kisscitywide5050.com. All right. We landed on number 11. Yes? Go to your car! Yes, get that cherry That is awesome. So it's a zero-grade, like a camp recliner chair kind of deal.
Oh, yeah. He's loving life now. Now it's looking good. Now I can sit back and relax. At the very worst, you can sleep in that chair if you don't get the sleeping exactly oh i'm pumped i'm gonna i'm gonna rearrange my area here okay move this table a little bit get myself oh this is This, I'm making a home. I'm going to make a little fork here. And it's a smaller A&W, right? Yeah, it's a small town, small A&W. It's just got a lot of heart inside of it, but I'm going to have this
Oh, I'm going to have a little cot set. Oh, this is going to be good. He's got his chair now. So he's got a chair, a pillow, a blanket, a phone. He's had something to eat, but he's not allowed to eat right now unless it's that bag of celery. He's had his donut. So, yeah, the first few hours have been okay. $160,120 right now. Once we get to $161,000, Dylan, you'll get your next spin of the wheel, okay?
