Roz & Mocha

Madonna is generating buzz with a celebrity-filled short film for her upcoming album, while Rosie O'Donnell says she's done with cosmetic surgery. Justin Trudeau and Katy Perry are making headlines with their high-profile relationship, and Spencer Pratt's mayoral run comes to an end after finishing third in L.A.'s primary. Plus, a resurfaced controversial photo of actor Hudson Williams, Idris Elba shutting down James Bond rumours, a fake Air Canada pilot exposed after decades, and a look at the biggest baby name trends of 2026.

Hypothetical virus symptoms get weirdly personal, from constant venting and narcolepsy to sweating and uncontrollable white lies, before things shift to debates over lawn obsession and how far you'd go for easy money if it meant gaining weight. There's also talk of brutally honest Caribbean aunties, childhood stuffed animal attachments that never quite go away, and whether certain fan-favourite segments deserve a comeback, all mixed with hot takes on provinces, Drake albums, maids, AI fears, dream fictional destinations, and the awkward reality of surprise parties

On this episode of Ask Roz & Mocha, the crew dives into those first-paycheck flexes—what big, memorable purchase felt like a total “I made it” moment? Plus, they get into the internet rabbit holes that keep us laughing (and sometimes crying), from chaotic bloopers to emotional reunion videos. The debate heats up over whether you actually need to rinse dishes before loading the dishwasher, and everyone admits to that one random household item they just can't seem to throw out. And finally, are you a strict grocery-list shopper or a “vibes-only” cart filler? It's all relatable, hilarious, and very real.

On today's podcast, Roz calls out his wife for constantly losing her credit card, a superfan gets grilled in an on-air “job interview,” and the guys play an adorable round of Heads Up with a 4-year-old listener—plus Mocha trolls everyone by killing the mics, admits to crushing five slices of ice cream cake, and Maurie hits the CSA carpet chatting with Andrew Phung and Heated Rivalry star Robbie GK

By request, Jason wanted more classic calls to Roz, so we delivered a triple throwback: from 2014 when he phoned Roz just to chat, to another 2014 call trying to get him out for a beer, and finally jumping to 2015 for the unforgettable moment he called Roz to confess he was in love with him.

Feeling overwhelmed takes on a whole new meaning—caring for aging parents while recovering from a car accident and dealing with a sibling who won't help or contribute. Add to that the chaos of trying to keep six picky kids fed with six different meals, a teen dreading an entire summer stuck at a lake house with a difficult grandparent, and the heartbreak of being suddenly cut off by a best friend in a questionable relationship. Real-life stress, family tension, and tough decisions collide in a series of situations where people are just trying to hold it together and figure out what to do next.

On today's podcast, Shem's daily affirmations set the tone, Chloe answers tough questions from Mocha's 9-year-old nephew about her party, and a rant about the lack of peanuts on Drumsticks spirals into a full snack debate—plus, the crew imagines Roz in a durag, reacts to a clueless Star Wars review, and Maurie chats with Alison Brie about Masters of the Universe

Canada blanks the U.S. 4-0 to advance to the world hockey semifinals, while big sports headlines continue with the Spurs reaching the NBA Finals for the first time since 2014 and the Knicks taking Game 1. In entertainment, HBO confirms Euphoria has officially ended after three seasons, the horror film Backrooms dominates the box office with its 20-year-old director making history, and Taylor Swift is set to release an original song for Toy Story 5. Meanwhile, Toronto police have seized $3.5 million worth of counterfeit soccer merchandise, and in one of the strangest stories of the day, authorities in New York are investigating videos showing men emerging from city sewer manholes.

Debating who would actually survive a prison break, choosing between road-tripping with full control of the aux or enduring a chaotic board game night, and weighing weird everyday annoyances like something stuck in your teeth versus your eye all lead into brutally honest takes on attraction rankings, questionable gadgets, and whether taking life advice from the past still holds up today—all mixed with random hypotheticals, personal confessions, and the kind of arguments that spiral way further than they should

On this episode of Ask Roz & Mocha, things get hilariously real as the crew debates who's most likely to get divorced—sorry Shem, the verdict may already be in. Listeners also chime in with some truly on-brand ideas, including the perfect final resting spot for Roz (hint: it involves his beloved lawn and a certain street in Acton). Plus, a blast from the past resurfaces with the legendary wrapping paper that only boob tape could tame—does it still make an annual appearance? And to top it all off, the gang imagines their own Iron Man-style suits, revealing just how chaotic (and revealing) their personalities really are.

Mocha tried to sound tough to start the show but got roasted for being completely non-threatening, even when he escalated things, while Maurie hit the streets asking people what petty items they'd fight for in a divorce. Roz became fully obsessed with a ridiculous mayo-on-a-car viral video, which somehow led into a wildly detailed (and very revealing) conversation about people's bathroom habits that nobody asked for. Plus, payday excitement had everyone planning their splurges, Chloe recapped the Bruno Mars show, and the crew caught up with Tom Green and the team behind Nirvanna the Band as the chaos just kept rolling.

Just in time for Father's Day, the Roz & Mocha Retro Show dives into the archives for some unforgettable dad-themed moments—from 2013, when Maurie hilariously calls Roz to try and ruin his Father's Day, to that same year on the MMVA red carpet where Maurie confidently says it's 2010… despite it clearly being 2013. Plus, a look back at 2014 when the crew chats with the Toronto Blue Jays about celebrating Father's Day.

Feeling stuck after a life-changing accident and struggling to move forward while managing PTSD at the same job; dealing with the awkwardness of contributing to a wedding gift without ever receiving an invite and not knowing whether to speak up or just show up; trying to figure out if it's time to start dating again after years of focusing on family, while questioning what readiness even looks like; and navigating frustration at work after taking a financial hit due to policies that don't seem to apply equally, all while wanting to stay in a job that's otherwise loved.

From Mocha flexing his surprise Montreal Grand Prix hookup to a heated debate over whether merging at the last second in construction zones should be illegal, the show was all over the place—in the best way. Nicholas melted hearts (and maybe stirred some drama) with a thoughtful package that didn't include everyone, Roz shared the horrors of standing in the rain watching Roxy row, and things got weird fast when the crew taste-tested a peanut butter, mayo, butter, and onion sandwich—with Maurie somehow loving it. Plus, a Costco sample-line rant, a fake “House Hunters” conspiracy, and a full interview with “Backrooms” director Kane Parsons kept things chaotic right through to the end.

From choosing who you'd quarantine with on a virus-stricken cruise to debating cringey old fashion trends and whether $2 million is worth six years in Antarctica, the conversations spiral into hilarious hypotheticals and personal truths. Add in questions about swapping homes with coworkers, finding shirts that actually fit tall bodies, and being called out on “street cred,” plus wild scenarios like shrinking to an ant or growing into a skyscraper, and it's a mix of random, revealing, and completely unfiltered opinions on how everyone would survive (or not) in some truly bizarre situations

Do you store your cups upright or upside down in the cupboard? That sparks a surprisingly heated debate, along with fantasy casting themselves as the main character in any show, and revealing the most famous person they could call who would actually pick up. They also get into the pettiest, least valuable thing you could steal to completely inconvenience someone for a day, and share their oddly specific niche group memberships — from “Brown Photographers Under 5'6” to “Church-Going Cheesecake Lovers.”

Mocha celebrates getting his bread settlement money while Roz deals with a declined credit card, as Maurie and Chloe head out horseback riding to promote Dutton Ranch.  The crew also talks a wild $200,000 celebrity haircut, vents about shoelaces and people walking on the road, and catches up with the cast of the new Netflix series Mating Season, plus a special conversation with astronaut Jeremy Hansen. 

By request from Flaming Romo ‘C', we're diving into a Retro Show all about singing—because let's be honest, we've been doing that since day one! From the archives, relive the unforgettable moments like Roz and Mocha taking on “Faith” back in 2013, Maurie bravely belting out Led Zeppelin's “Stairway to Heaven” (also in 2013), and in honour of Cher turning 80, we throw it back to 2014 when The Damnits gave their iconic take on a Cher classic. It's pitchy, it's passionate, and it's all part of the Roz & Mocha magic! 

A longtime strained relationship with an absent father leads to a difficult question about whether an apology is even possible after decades of distance, while another situation explores the emotional balance of waiting years to start a relationship without losing independence or becoming overly attached. Add in the weight of a one-sided household where one partner feels overwhelmed doing everything despite working the same long hours, and it becomes a mix of family pain, relationship boundaries, and the challenge of getting people to truly show up when it matters most

Mocha admits he's been driving around with an expired license, while Maurie also catches up with Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow amid Drake's massive album takeover of the city.  Chloe shares what it was really like going to a NASCAR event with her boyfriend, plus a wild debate on whether you'd commit a crime if you could freeze time, Kevin O'Leary's blunt take on divorce, and vented moments from a frustrated pharmacist dealing with impatient customers

Drake made headlines after dropping three albums—Iceman, Habibti, and Maid of Honour—while revealing his father has cancer, as fans gathered at the CN Tower reacting to the news.  Meanwhile, early buzz for the new Star Wars film The Mandalorian and Grogu has been mixed ahead of release, and in health news, B.C. confirmed Canada's first positive case of the Andes strain of hantavirus amid rising concerns about Ebola.  In entertainment, Aqua announced their split, Shakira won her tax case in Spain, and Ice Cube says a new Friday movie is officially in the works.  Closer to home, Ontario plans to extend last call to 4 a.m. during the World Cup, but the tournament could cost Canadians over $1 billion, while police are reportedly using secret spyware on phones.

Sending an eggplant emoji just to see the reaction, putting the whole crew to the test on who could actually bench press a full human, and revealing the weird things everyone somehow has too much of at home. It goes from chaotic chugging favourites and what everyone would bring to a picnic, to naming a pizzeria, and then into bigger debates—like the one stat you'd want to see above everyone's head, why certain words hit weird, and whether it's worse to live slightly too hot or slightly too cold all the time.

On this episode of Ask Roz & Mocha, the gang dives into everything from Maurie's eating habits (is he finally on real food?!) to brutally honest takes on their least favorite parts of the job. Roz shares thoughtful advice for aspiring children's authors, while Shem is put on the spot to choose an in-studio intimacy coordinator for a hypothetical love scene. Things get even more chaotic with on-the-fly nicknames for the whole crew, a tough money dilemma ($1 an hour forever or $1M now), and a candid chat about how they've all become a little too much like their parents. Plus, they confess the times they faked liking something for friends or partners—and exactly when it went way too far.

Roz goes off on his Samsung washer for blasting a full-on song every time it finishes, then gets nowhere when a listener tries to help him turn it off, plus the crew debates the whole “jinx, buy me a Coke” thing and whether it's real. There's also Chloe recapping a chaotic day party, Maurie trying to host with nothing but BBQ cauliflower, and everyone reacting to a viral video of a grandma losing it after finding out she's becoming one.

This week on The Roz & Mocha Retro Show, it's all about SMELLS! We throw it back to 2013 when Roz got up close (maybe too close) during Movember and sniffed Maurie's moustache, plus a 2015 chat on the scents we absolutely love—and the ones we can't stand. And of course, we open the phones to hear about the smells you're obsessed with!

Life with a teenager can feel like emotional whiplash—one minute you've “ruined their life” over dinner, the next they need you again 15 minutes later—while other parents are just trying to survive exhausting days juggling everything and feeling like they've lost themselves completely. Some are dealing with siblings constantly pushing buttons, others are struggling with friendships that have suddenly gone silent after decades, leaving them stuck wondering what went wrong. Whether it's chaos at home, loneliness, or trying to hold everything together, it's all a reminder that everyone's just doing their best to get through it without losing their patience—or their sense of humor.

Roz celebrates Roxy getting her driver's license before she destroys the whole team in a driver's handbook challenge, plus Maurie hits the red carpet with Jacob Tierney and Maggie Kang and gets some scoop on season 2 of Heated Rivalry and K-Pop Demon Hunters. There's also a wild HELLUVA STORY about a teenage lake house break-in that turns into a horror movie, Mocha getting way too excited about filling out the census, and the crew losing it over a viral horse fart.

A secondary school in northeastern B.C. tied to one of Canada's deadliest mass shootings will be torn down, while health officials say several Canadians are isolating after exposure to a hantavirus outbreak linked to a cruise, though the overall risk remains low.  Oil prices are rising after Donald Trump rejected Iran's latest proposal to end the war, and new data shows fewer Canadians are travelling to the U.S., with visits down significantly.  In entertainment, Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr have released their first-ever duet, Dua Lipa is suing Samsung over alleged unauthorized use of her image, and “The Devil Wears Prada 2” is topping the box office again.  Meanwhile, Canadian households are filing for bankruptcy at the fastest pace in over 16 years, highlighting growing financial pressure.

Would you rather start an OnlyFans if everything went wrong, bring your pet to work every day, or come back in your next life as something completely random? One Deep Dive spirals into desperate career pivots, work pets, reincarnation, and who would actually make money online. Another round tackles who belongs in the final round of Family Feud, the oddly personal story behind recently used emojis, and the most unhinged bet ever made. Later, things get grosser and more revealing with weird childhood habits, questions about who paid 99 cents for a now‑infamous website, and which illegal or unrealistic animal would make the perfect pet.

Would you rather add an extra zero to your lifespan or your salary? Who do you really think wins more arguments in your relationship, and how different would your life look if your spouse didn't exist? Roz and Mocha tackle big “what if” questions, awkward truths, and ridiculous debates—from being dropped into a country with no English or technology, to cringing at the terrible ideas they wanted as teenagers, to the surprisingly heated discussion of whether you reuse the same drinking glass all day

Eric Braeden sounds off after a casting director wastes his time, plus the guys relive the moment he absolutely unloaded on them for being late to an interview.

Today's Roz & Mocha Retro Show is all about one undeniable truth: Roz has always been old. We rewind to 2014 when we asked Roz how old he felt — and that was 13 years ago, so do the math and try not to hurt yourself. Then in 2015, we broke down exactly who Roz is older than, which somehow caused more damage than comfort. And to really seal the legacy, we revisit the moment Twitter officially crowned him a full‑blown dinosaur. It's classic Retro Roz… just with more back pain.

A guy feels uneasy because his girlfriend won't let him post her—or post him—on social media, and he's stuck wondering if his insecurity is valid or something he needs to fix. Another letter comes from someone ready to end a long‑term relationship but paralyzed by guilt as his partner is dealing with serious family stress and illness, while also fearing what being alone might look like. There's a situation involving a year‑long fallout with teenage family members over a misunderstanding that was never discussed, and whether it can still be repaired. And finally, a listener hitting a milestone birthday asks how to stop sweating the small stuff, slow down, and actually become better in this next chapter of life.

Star Wars Day streeters with Maurie, including takes you truly can't unhear, plus Shem celebrating May the 4th in his own very specific way. A brand‑new Shem song makes its debut, followed by a big interview with Small Town Escapes stars Colin and Justin on leaving city life behind. Eric Braeden makes headlines with an explosive rant aimed at a casting director, and the show dives into Nick Cannon saying his 15‑year‑old son is allowed to date — sparking a heated conversation.

From playoff heartbreak with the Oilers and Raptors, to workplaces cracking down on cell phones, plus Drake shooting a new music video in Toronto. There's also a wild Full House residuals revelation, history made at the Kentucky Derby, the biggest Met Gala moments, a cruise ship illness affecting Canadians, and why everyone is just realizing Ziggy Marley sang the Arthur theme song.

The team tackles everything from the warning labels they'd come with, breaking up with a longtime barber, and who they'd bring on a cross‑country road trip, to gross workplace habits, why Roz never has to compete in challenges, and finger‑snapping superpowers. Other Deep Dives get into holding petty grudges, refusing a tray of lasagna, who would be the worst therapist, changing your mind on big life opinions, hypothetical body swaps, whether you call it a bathroom, washroom or restroom, and impossible choices like pasta hair or glizzy fingers. 

Can Maurie pick up Roz for work again for old time sake? The crew debates life without money and what a new form of currency could be, Mocha opens up about what prompted him to stop drinking and how he did it, and the gang tackles impossible would‑you‑rathers—from getting paid per poop versus per step, to mooing when you cry or squeaking when you laugh. They also unpack Roz's infamous “mind ya business” response to a sneeze, questionable microwave hotdog techniques, buffet strategy, whether it's better to be elite at something ridiculous or average at something respected, and what really belongs on your plate first.

Roz challenges Chloe to explain Gen X references, the crew reacts to a pregnancy craving combo of tuna and grape jelly, and Roz admits he didn't know men were getting Brazilian waxes.

This week on The Roz & Mocha Retro Show, we're talking about the unsung hero of every outfit: pants. We dig back into some classic pants-related moments, from covering the No Pants Subway Ride in 2014, to that same year when a guy went viral for putting his pants on with absolutely no hands, and finally tackling the timeless 2015 debate: are long johns actually underwear? It's proof that when it comes to pants, we've always had opinions — and zero shame.

Andi can't shake the fear that she's about to be fired after surviving a toxic job in the past.
