| Episode 21: Bed Rails, Butts & Bird Rage | 03 Sep 2026 | 00:21:32 | |
Feedbag: Bed Rails, Butts & Bird Rage This week on Feedbag, we’re back from a little getaway to Prince Edward County - and the conversation immediately turns to Gen X midlife - sleep disorders, bed rails, farts, packing disasters, questionable fatherly advice, and bird-related rage. Rupert tells the terrifying story of acting out a dream in his sleep, resulting in a very real collision with his nightstand, a trip to the hospital, and the installation of toddler bed rails on a king-size bed. Nat talks about the realities of midlife sleep: night sweats, blackout curtains, body pillows, fans, AC, mouth guards—and the sheer amount of equipment required just to get through the night. Then things take a decidedly less medical turn as we discuss farting, famous family farts, the mysterious physics of farting while sitting down, and the unforgettable moment when Nat’s fart apparently sounded like a cat. We also get into the art of packing for vacation, why the car is basically the suitcase, and the extremely British packing advice Rupert received from his dad - including one memorable question about condoms. And finally, we discover the one thing that can transform sweet, tolerant Nat into an absolutely furious person: someone confidently misidentifying a bird. Plus: guitars in the bedroom, Facebook as the new old-people platform, MySpace nostalgia, and plenty of nonsense along the way. In this episode:

| Episode 19 with Pay Chen: A Lasting Gen X Friendship | 02 Jul 2026 | 00:30:05 | |
Pay Chen: Why Gen X Friendships Last | TV Careers, AI & Growing Up Analog In this episode, I'm hanging out with broadcaster and longtime friend Pay Chen for a wide-ranging conversation about what it means to grow up Gen X - and stay friends for decades. We talk about Pay's life in Canadian television and the changing landscape of media and freelancing. Pay shares what it was like building a TV career in the early 2000s, how the industry has shifted, and what it means to navigate work now in an AI-driven creative world. We reflect on more than 30 years of friendship, what keeps people connected through different cities, careers, and life stages, and why Gen X friendships hit differently. From university days in residence, to basement apartments, fax machines, and early careers in media, this episode is a nostalgic look at a generation that grew up just before the internet changed everything. We also get honest about:
This is a conversation about friendship, aging, work, and what actually matters when you’ve been in the industry long enough to see everything change.

| Episode 18: 80s Road Trips Were Insane | 18 Jun 2026 | 00:20:20 | |
This week on Feedbag, we’re heading straight back to the 1980s - when family road trips meant paper maps, packed station wagons, early morning departures, and absolutely zero GPS. We’re talking about the chaos and charm of 80s road trips: hot vinyl seats, cassette tapes on repeat, kids rolling around in the back of the car, and parents who somehow kept it all together (barely). Before iPhones, before in-car screens, before “Are we there yet?” could be answered by a tablet - there was just the open road, a highlighted map, and a lot of trust in Dad’s questionable navigation system. It’s nostalgic, funny, and a little shocking by today’s standards - but also kind of magical in a way we don’t really experience anymore. We’re getting into:
If you grew up in the 80s or 90s, this one will hit you right in the memory bank. If you didn’t… you’re about to find out how different travel used to be.
