Wednesday Wadio: Life Don’t Mix With The Railroad.

A Canadian friend sent me this clip a few months ago (right-click the link to download the MP3 as I couldn't get this file to work properly with the Radio Pye software). I can't find a single mention of it on the interwebnets, and I'm not sure if it's been in wide distribution or what. But it cracks me up beyond belief and I wanted to spread it around. In short, it's a recording of a railroad employee named Doug Seibert who is being telephoned and asked to come into work. Apparently he knew he was on call but decided to roll the dice and get extremely intoxicated anyway. If I had a nickel.

Warning: Doug, whoever he is, swears like a pirate. Put your headphones on or wait to listen to this until you get home from work tonight. That having been said, here's what I'm able to explicate from repeated listens:

- Doug works for the Canadian Pacific Railroad.
- Doug's friends dropped in and they decided to go ski-dooing.
- Doug and friends drank 5 million thousand gallons of whiskey whilst ski-dooing.
- Doug and friends are 'gooned'.
- Doug's supervisor is going to have to mark him down as being 'sick on call'.
- Doug's probably not going to have a job in the morning. But that's OK - because life don't mix with the railroad.

I dare you not to listen to this 3 times and laugh your skidooing ass off. Jesus, do I ever want to get gooned with Doug.

    Can one of you guys get me in touch with Doug? I'd love to interview him and do a follow up piece on the blog.

    I stumbled accross this blog, as I was listening to this clip of Doug on my own (I often dig it up when I feel I need a laugh) and did a search to see other comments on it. I just wanted to say I am glad I am not the only one who can listen to this multiple times and still laugh my ass off everytime. Sick it in your ipod among the other 400 songs, it won't come up often, but when it does, it makes your day a little better ahahaha!

    We work with Doug up here in Chapleau and will forward this blog to him, I'm sure he'll be happy to respond.

    Doug I heard the tape a thousand times, I started out in Chap., now in Edmonton, When ever I need a good laugh I just have to listen the tape and it puts all the railway bullshit in perspective. Thanks

    One of Doug's colleagues has put me in touch with the man himself, and we'll be doing a follow up interview soon.
