Gabey has a comedy show to do, but she also has to get in her daily butt exercises… or else. Apologies if they overlap. Meanwhile, let's discover the magic of mediocre ice hockey, 14,784,378 dried red beans and Swiss Guard fashionistas. Plus, there are potentially two whole different whales in this show. That's 200 to one infinity percent more whales than most shows. But(t) no promises. 'Highly watchable, absurd... with some absolute pearls. Gabey makes it look easy' (Marc Burrows). 'Delightfully odd' (TheWeeReview.com).
