Roz & Mocha

WrestleMania reactions, Raptors playoff frustration, and chaos around candy binges, gym etiquette, and accidentally swallowing toothpaste. The episode also features Maurie’s interviews with Heated Rivalry costume designer Hanna Puley, Mark Wahlberg and Paul Walter Hauser on Balls Up, and Devon Hansen, the son of Canadian astronaut Jeremy Hansen, talking about the historic Artemis II mission. Plus, a Helluva Story that has the room stunned as one listener explains how they went to sleep for surgery and woke up with a completely different accent.

Airlines are shortening movie titles to make them fit seat‑back screens, Artemis II astronauts are opening up about an intense re‑entry back to Earth, and Law & Order: Organized Crime is officially finished, with Christopher Meloni getting emotional saying goodbye to fans. There’s new hype after Kevin Feige teased Avengers: Doomsday at CinemaCon, Lana Del Rey dropped a theme song for a new James Bond video game, gas prices are down across the country, a humanoid robot just beat a half‑marathon world record, and a hot air balloon made an emergency landing in a man’s backyard.

Who would win a home run derby sparks debate, with Mocha topping most lists and Maurie happily placing himself last after a close call at a Jays game. Roz breaks down his favourite rock bands — AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Queen, The Black Crowes, and The Cure — and talks about how hearing his kid play guitar has brought those songs back into his life. The group also reveals the one app they couldn’t live without, from banking and Instagram to Google Maps and Uber Eats, exposing just how differently everyone relies on their phone.

If you could download any skill straight into your brain like The Matrix, what would it be? The crew also gets into whether Roz ever feels the urge to teach Chloe how to cook, who’s actually the best poker player on the show (Vegas experience and “street smarts” are debated), and if Roz has ever thought about working on a golf course thanks to his love of lawn care. Mocha opens up about turning in early, sleep struggles, and whether supplements like magnesium are part of his nighttime routine. Plus: the ultimate breakfast plate breakdown, sausage vs. bacon, eggs done right, and a brutal choice — would you rather never text again or never talk on the phone again?

The crew attempts a viral screaming challenge that immediately goes off the rails, breaks down Chloe’s very specific vision‑board goals, and gives life advice to listeners hitting milestone birthdays — including turning 40 and 60. Plus, Maurie interviews the viral duo Twink and a Redhead, who were the first to stay at The Cottage from Heated Rivalry, admits he’s broke on payday, and the team fields calls about nose piercings, birthday surprises, annoying songs stuck in your head, squatter hunters, Reddit oddities, and a very adorable four‑year‑old big sister.

The Roz & Mocha Retro Show! Special guest this week.. Mocha!

A listener worries a running joke about looking like his partner’s sibling may be killing intimacy, while another faces the unbearable reality of a parent who may never regain consciousness after cardiac arrest. There’s also a parent discovering skipped classes, secret vaping, and hidden phones, and a workplace situation where a coworker’s relationship with a married executive feels inappropriate and uncomfortable. Tough, emotional situations spark honest conversations about boundaries, grief, parenting, and knowing when something just isn’t right.

Mocha celebrates his birthday with surprise calls from Denis and Melina, street shout‑outs from fans, and Shem singing a very customized version of Happy Birthday. The crew reacts to Rory McIlroy winning his second straight Masters — with instant reactions from an Irish pub — debates whose farts smell worse between men and women, and breaks down Chloe’s dance competition turning into a full‑on party. Plus, Roz pulls part of an earbud out of his own ear, Shem explains why it was finally time to ditch his Kia, a six‑year‑old hockey player goes viral with an on‑ice interview, Jen calls in ahead of turning 40, and Mocha gets hyped for the newly revealed animated Spider‑Man movie.

Diddy’s lawyers argue his alleged sex crimes were actually constitutionally‑protected amateur pornography, while GB News faces backlash after a guest falsely claimed Drake’s lyrics reference violence against women. Olivia Rodrigo teases a new single as Lady Gaga and Doechii surprise‑drop a track from The Devil Wears Prada 2, the Raptors clinch an automatic playoff spot, Ottawa is rattled by a 3.9‑magnitude earthquake, and Instagram finally allows users to edit comments within 15 minutes. Plus, filmmaker Guillermo del Toro reflects on being honoured by the Canadian Film Centre and jokes that if he were mayor, the city would celebrate Taco Tuesday.

Chloe does quite possibly the worst Shaggy impression, ghost stories clash with denial, haunted hotels get recordings, and a floating jar of Nutella sparks debates about what’s real and what’s A.I. Childhood TV commercials, first wrestling memories, public toilet habits, and the unspoken rules of remotes turn into unexpectedly heated arguments. There’s also talk of truth serum, impossible questions about monogamy, liquids shooting from fingers, WiFi names, beard straighteners, and which TV show would be the worst—or best—to be trapped in forever. Low-stakes questions spiral into big opinions, old stories, and chaos where nothing stays simple for long.

If you could instantly download any skill into your brain Matrix-style, what would it be? Roz and Mocha tackle that, the worst part of summer, and what the ultimate Roz & Mocha Show getaway would actually look like. Things get personal with green flags in dating, lifelong hobbies and investments outside of work, and the exact moment you realize you’re officially getting older (including a very honest breakdown of Roz’s dramatically deeper voice). Plus: menu items inspired by each member of the show and which everyday sound deserves to disappear forever.

Mocha gets roasted after sending Jenna on a Costco lotion run, while Roz Weston Lane officially becomes a destination complete with potholes, missing car logos, and firsthand listener reports. Mocha shocks everyone by admitting he went to bed at 6:30 p.m., Pina absolutely nails the national anthem at a Marlies game, and Shem’s reputation somehow still follows him into a LUSH store. Maurie sits down with Jack Innanen and Taylor Ortega to talk about their new Netflix series Big Mistakes, and also checks in with fans during a rough Blue Jays loss that turned into a full family roast at the ballpark.

It’s a full‑on potpourri of ridiculousness on the Roz & Mocha Retro Show today. We rewind to 2014 for Butt Kick Day, asking the age‑old question: how many times can you kick your own butt? Then it’s 2015, when Roz famously used Maurie’s belly as a drum, followed by another 2014 classic where Maurie demonstrates the exact way he tickles his own arm… by tickling Mocha’s. Pure chaos. Pure nostalgia.

Recovery from knee surgery goes sideways when a trusted friend secretly brings a new kitten into a home with medically fragile cats, triggering panic, confrontation, and an awkward rush to fix the damage. Another letter dives into a family crisis involving an ongoing celebrity scam where logic, proof, and loved ones can’t break through denial. There’s also a brutal financial nightmare after a bank account is hacked, leaving someone locked out of their own money and stuck paying for a crime they didn’t commit. Boundaries, trust, control, and hard decisions collide in brutal, messy situations where there are no easy fixes—just fallout.

Roz loses his mind over a simple trip to Canadian Tire, Mocha spirals after finding out “Topanga” knows Nirvanna: The Band, The Show, The Movie, and a night‑shift hospital security guard explains why full moons are never good news. Maurie sits down with Devon Hansen, the son of astronaut Jeremy Hansen, for a conversation about watching his dad fly around the moon, floating Nutella, and the scariest parts of the mission, and also chats with the cast of The Testaments about continuing the world of The Handmaid’s Tale. Plus, Roz vents about the Yellowstone spinoffs, a jaw‑dropping car‑damage confession, a baby nearly born on the phone with the show, and Josh Brolin almost fighting Denzel Washington.

Blue Jays fans are already frustrated after being swept by the White Sox, then getting smoked 14‑2 by the Dodgers as the struggles continue at home. Lady Gaga has cancelled her Montreal show, while a mysterious new “artist” with 11 songs in the iTunes Top 100 turns out to not even be real. Kanye West has been barred from entering the U.K., killing the Wireless Music Festival and pushing major sponsors to walk, and an 80‑year‑old Dodgers fan is going viral after being locked out by digital‑only tickets. Plus, Artemis II astronauts make history around the moon, Lotto Max ticket prices are going up, Spaceballs is officially getting a sequel, and CNN accidentally posted a premature death story for Michael J. Fox.

Radio bucket lists get questioned, flopped TV shows are mourned, and a first real back injury sparks talk about aging and pain. Things spiral into wasted money confessions, brutal job rankings, screenshot vs. screen grab debates, unwanted nicknames, celebrity look‑alike claims, replacing hands with ridiculous objects, whether to delete photos of exes, reviving the head‑cam, and building the ultimate sandwich.

Five fingers, five mystery liquids — what are you dispensing at a moment’s notice? Plus, relationship hypotheticals get spicy as the crew debates the idea of “hall passes” (yes, even the people who insist they’re above it), how strategic you are about the perfect last bite of a meal, and the awkward reality of pretending to love a dish that keeps getting served again and again. Also on the table: silence vs. nonstop chatter on car rides with your partner, what truly represents you and the show in a time capsule cracked open 25 years from now, an eye irritation vs. an un-scratchable itch nightmare scenario, and the very divisive question — do you rinse after brushing or spit and trust the paste?

Roz takes issue with Earth Hour, emotional moments follow as a longtime listener remembers his late mother, and the crew plays Shrinkage. Maurie heads to Blue Jays batting practice, gets reaction from fans after Cardi B’s Toronto show, and checks in with devastated Italian soccer fans. We also hear from James Marsden about his new movie Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice, Drew Scott on Property Brothers: Under Pressure, Jay Armstrong Johnson on Heated Rivalry: The Musical, and chat with Jon Hamm, Olivia Munn, and James Marsden for season two of Your Friends & Neighbours.

Roz and Mocha Retro Show throws it back to 2014 with three classic Roz rants. From the harsh realities of living with a kid, to an unexpected meltdown over ear wax, to his hot take on why music doesn’t have any ugly people anymore—these vintage Roz moments are peak unfiltered hilarity.
