## Notable Events

* This is the third episode of Calgary Awareness Month in 2021, focusing primarily on Calgary food, especially ginger beef.
* Josiah and Drew were joined by Jeff, who is a lifelong Calgarian.
* Drew revealed that they had to blow up the hospital where he was born because they had to get rid of the stink.
* Josiah, Jeff, and Drew watched a video called "Shit Calgarians Say" about an exaggeration of life in Calgary.
* Drew revealed he yells out the name Nenshi when he reaches climax.
* Josiah, Jeff, and Drew watched a video called "GINGER BEEF! | Aesthetic ASMR Cooking Video | Food Vlog" about a quick Chinese dish which is best enjoyed with a bowl of hot rice!
* Jeff revealed that ginger beef was created at the Silver Inn in Calgary, and is a mix of deep-fried beef as well as chili sauce, onions, julienne carrots, and sesame seeds. Despite originating in Calgary, it has now migrated to every corner of the world and can be found in restaurants in major city centers like New York, Chicago, Toronto, Edmonton, and Los Angeles. He further detailed that Calgary is ranked #85 in the world in terms of cities, but ginger beef is their #1 export.
* Jeff discussed that ginger beef looks like dog turd. Drew agreed, saying that sometimes he walks outside and sees a piece of ginger beef on the ground, but only when he puts his nose up to it does he realize it's not ginger beef. Josiah commented that you really have to taste it to know for sure because sometimes smell and taste are different. Jeff noted that sometimes an overcooked ginger beef is so close to dog turd in smell. Drew expressed that he actually prefers it to be overcooked for that reason, throwing it in his microwave or requesting the restaurant throw it in their microwave on high for 5 minutes to get it extra overcooked and chewy to resemble eating dog turd.
* Josiah, Jeff, and Drew watched a video called "Ginger Beef Makeover - April 29th" about ginger beef, reinvented!
* Jeff revealed he gets a lot of refills at restaurants and gets a lot of extra napkins and things like that for his family.
* Josiah, Jeff, and Drew watched a video called "Dave MacKenzie Food Review at the Roadking Calgary AB" about Celebrity Publisher Dave MacKenzie Canadian Trucking Magazine Dave at the Roadking Calgary AB #Trucking #Roadking #Calgary. Josiah, Jeff, and Drew discussed having Dave MacKenzie on a future episode of Globe Hell Warning. Josiah and Drew compared this video to their Monthly Cameo Thank You Message.
* Josiah, Jeff, and Drew watched a video called "Worst Reviewed Restaurant in Calgary." about how I Followed Google Reviews to Eat at the Worst Reviewed Restaurant in my City....
	+ Note: Upon seeing a sign for Humpty's in the background of the video, Josiah surmised that it was the Humpty's "that crosses Macleod Trail" at 14315 Macleod Trail SW, Calgary, AB T2Y 1M6, Canada. However, it is actually the Humpty's at 1619 46 St NW, Calgary, AB T3B 0N1, Canada, which is approximately 23 kilometers away from the one Josiah mentioned. The restaurant in the video, Saigon West, does not have a street address listed; only the following: "Calgary, AB T3B 1A8, Canada".
* Josiah, Jeff, and Drew watched a video called "Calgary Fancy Restaurant - Bridgette Bar" about how Bridgette bar is known for it's french cuisine and I sampled a number of dishes including, garlic bread, maple BBQ rainbow trout, and banana pie.
