Roz & Mocha

Andi can’t shake the fear that she’s about to be fired after surviving a toxic job in the past. Mariapia is stuck dealing with a noisy, unpredictable landlord and doesn’t know how to stand up for herself without making things worse. Dave once again needs emergency help figuring out Mother’s Day, and Cassandra opens up about the loneliness and guilt she feels after moving away from her family for her husband’s new job.

Maurie chats with Nicholas Braun about his new project The Sheep Detective. Roz tells the story of an incredibly awkward grocery store run‑in with a listener while buying toilet paper, Shem gets dragged for his obsession with heavy sweaters, and the crew reacts to Ray J claiming he’s slept with over 11,000 women. There’s also confusion and debate around Raptors playoff rules and fan injuries, Drake fans climbing an icy installation searching for a possible album clue, backlash over a viral Ottawa Senators song apology, and an AI‑generated punk track made entirely from a pregnant wife’s real text messages.

Harry Styles and Zoë Kravitz are reportedly engaged after eight months of dating, while Channing Tatum appears to react publicly to the news. Ticketmaster Canada is delisting resale tickets in Ontario ahead of new legislation that would cap resale prices at face value. Taylor Swift has been named Spotify’s most-streamed artist of all time as the platform marks its 20th anniversary. The NFL Draft kicked off in Philadelphia with Fernando Mendoza going first overall, reportedly signing a $54‑million deal. Ariana Grande announced her new album Petal, out July 31, as Ted Lasso confirms a Season 4 return this August. Meanwhile, new studies reveal cocaine pollution is altering salmon behaviour, food cravings peak sharply at 3:42 p.m., and Madonna made a surprise late‑night appearance teasing a new album era.

Public transit horror stories escalate fast, from greasy handrails to full‑on chaos, before a serious question sparks talk of how a proper retirement victory lap should look. The crew debates surviving group projects, who actually washes their hands, and assigns jobs in a chaotic period‑drama version of themselves. Relationship habits get dissected too — sitting beside your partner, last names, sharing passwords, road‑trip patience, and whether anyone would embarrass themselves for a million dollars — all while proving that some questions reveal way more than intended.

If you didn’t know Roz and had to guess his age, what would you say? Roz also reveals what it was like narrating his own book — and whether book narration could become his next money-making lane. What does Mocha actually look like without a hat? If you were a tree, what kind of tree would you be? Mocha ranks Maynard’s candy from best to worst, the crew decides who would leave a group function first through last, and Roz shares his unfiltered opinion on indoor grills.

A wild day around Drake’s massive Iceman ice sculpture takes over Toronto, from fans uncovering the hidden album release date to firefighters hosing it down and Mayor Olivia Chow reacting. Canadian Olympic ice dancers Piper Gilles and Paul Poirier stop by ahead of the Stars on Ice tour. Plus, we try a lightning‑fast tongue‑twister challenge with “Mouth Health.”

This week on the Roz and Mocha Retro Show, things get downright fowl as the crew dives beak‑first into all things chicken. From the wild discovery in 2015 that you could actually rent a chicken in Toronto, to revisiting the 2015 Chicken Dance era, and even throwing it back to 2013 when Maurie was genuinely stressed about running out of chickens, this episode proves one thing: the show has always been unhinged when poultry is involved.

A newly married listener can’t shake the resentment over a missing wedding card that keeps getting mentioned but never delivered, another is struggling to coexist now that her husband is home all the time and suddenly controls the movies, the bathroom, and the routine, while someone else feels trapped between a spouse who wants to move their growing family for a better future and a controlling parent who still calls the shots. Weighing loyalty, resentment, compromise, and how much is too much to swallow before saying something.

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.
