Roz & Mocha

Mocha gets roasted for his heated gloves, and the Snitch Line lights up with hotel décor drama and a dental‑office tattletale. Maurie talks with Olympic bronze medalist Valerie Maltais, then checks in with Olympian Nick Novak about the now‑infamous “frozen penis” warnings. We also hear from Canadian biathlete Adam Runnalls about knitting sweaters at the Games, and actor Stephen Amell joins us to talk about his new series The Borderline. Plus, Roz rages over the latest iPhone update, Stephanie’s parents describe their terrifying car accident, and Mocha gets distracted by wild A.I. celebrity videos.

This week on the Roz & Mocha Retro Podcast, we clearly picked our clips while hungry—because it’s all about burgers and fries! We’re kicking things off in 2018 with the legendary Great Burger Debate: what is the correct way to stack a burger? Then we revisit the bizarre 2018 story of a guy trying to sell a six‑year‑old burger for only $29 (a steal… or a stomach ache?). And from 2017, we learn something truly shocking: Maurie proudly microwaving his fries before eating them. It’s a deliciously crispy, slightly questionable blast from the past!

A birthday turns into a yearly battle with disappointing gifts, a partner who can’t stop stealing bites of everyone’s food, parents threatening to skip a wedding unless it happens in a church, and the heartbreak of losing a beloved dog and struggling with the guilt that follows. This week’s FML dives into frustration, family pressure, relationship boundaries, and the emotional weight of grief—four stories, all looking for clarity, comfort, and a way forward.

Super Bowl food talk gets out of control as everyone compares their massive spreads — except Maurie, who only had an apple — and Shem reveals he voiced a Pepsi Super Bowl commercial with Alessia Cara. Maurie speaks with one of the human bushes from Bad Bunny’s halftime show, and Mocha gets called out after a fan swears she spotted him at St. Louis Bar & Grill in full camo. At the Olympics, Maurie interviews snowboarder Florian Lechner, who’s searching for a Valentine’s Day date in the Village, and talks with Professor Victor Satzewich about granting figure skater Madeline Schizas an assignment extension while she competed. South African cross‑country skier Matt C. Smith checks in with more Village stories, Chloe quizzes her friends on Valentine’s expectations, and Roz surprises everyone by admitting he’s spending Valentine’s Day making knives with his brother.

Top NHL prospect Gavin McKenna is arrested after an alleged assault, the FBI raises a $50,000 reward as the search for Savannah Guthrie’s missing mother intensifies, and Olympic officials investigate bizarre claims of ski jumpers injecting acid for performance. We also get into Bad Bunny’s record‑breaking Super Bowl halftime ratings, Britney Spears selling her entire music catalog, major Olympic medal wins for Team Canada, and the tragic passing of actor James Van Der Beek at 48.

From debating personal mottos to confessing the worst relationship dealbreakers, listeners open up with questions that take the team everywhere—from whether skydiving or scuba diving is worth the adrenaline, to imagining life on nothing but bland chicken and rice for a million dollars a year. Other submissions dive into beauty routines, reality‑TV obsessions, Super Bowl traditions, and the eternal question of who actually pays at dinner.

Roz and Mocha tackle everything from the words they each use way too much and whether they could quit them for a day, to the moment they realized they were officially “old.” They debate shower habits, talk about their attempts at wind instruments, reveal their biggest fears, and share how they’ve kept their partnership solid for nearly two decades. Plus, the TV shows they can watch on repeat forever.

Mocha gets distracted by the wild new Heinz “keg‑sized” ketchup idea, which sends the room into a debate about gross condiment stations. Does Roz wash his legs yet? Maurie and Chloe hit the Bridgerton Season 4 gala before Maurie chats with the cast about everything from toilets to bridges. Roz describes witnessing a mom yelling at her kid who was somehow standing on top of a car, the team talks with Alessia Cara about her Olympic short film The Gold Within, and Roz declares his deep love for club soda. Mocha brings up the bizarre AI‑bot social network “Moltbook,” and Roz complains about waiting years between TV show seasons.

This week’s Roz & Mocha Retro Podcast is all about SNOW! With so many places getting absolutely WHOLLOPED by winter weather, we dug into the archives to find some frosty classics. We’re throwing it back to 2014 when Maurie tried out his best snow jokes and opened up about his winter skin struggles. And of course, we couldn’t search “snow” without catching up with Snow himself — the rapper — from way back in 2013!

Someone returns to Toronto after years away and suddenly feels out of place, unsure how to make friends or rediscover the city while balancing school and an early‑to‑bed life. Another listener is dealing with the fallout of having a household full of colourful language, now that their little ones have started repeating the words they swore they’d stop using. There’s also someone desperately wishing their partner would put real effort into celebrations instead of relying on them to buy and wrap their own gifts. And finally, a soon‑to‑be parent stresses over choosing a baby name as the due date creeps closer and every option sparks disagreement.
