0:00:01 Unknown Speaker #1

ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to the Hamilton Jubilee Were sat here right on Main Street near the Hamilton Community Center. And we have a front row seat to all the all the floats stopping at the parade. What a joyous occasion today is right, folks.

0:00:18 Unknown Speaker #2

It's a really gorgeous day here, Bob. I mean, you couldn't ask for a better day for the jubilee. We had a couple of showers earlier this morning, but the sun came out and the clouds burn away. And we are excited to see all the floats role in right here next to Yes. Stop

0:00:41 Unknown Speaker #3

being a weatherman for five minutes, buddy. And just enjoy the Jubilee. Okay?

0:00:46 Unknown Speaker #1

Yeah. Hang up the coat, Chris.

0:00:49 Unknown Speaker #2

It's hard for me to know what to talk about when the cameras were rolling. Other than the May showers which are expected to take a break later this week.

0:01:03 Unknown Speaker #3

Uh, sorry for interrupting me there, Chris, but of course I'm here. This is me. Ah, Lewis. Marcos. Ah, last name. That's very popular in this town here with Bob and Chris. Ah, and we're here hosting the Jubilee. Of course. The longest parade in America.

0:01:24 Unknown Speaker #2

I can't help but think that you're a little bit annoyed that there's so many people named Marco's. What's going on? Why the thunderclouds over your hand? It's just

0:01:38 Unknown Speaker #3

very frustrating to be one of 4 400 Mr Marcos is in one town. You know, I'd like to have an identity of my own, but instead I have to share it with so many other guys.

0:01:50 Unknown Speaker #1

What is it, Marcos? Family flow. Marko's family

0:01:56 Unknown Speaker #2

low. It's us, The originals. We are originals.

0:02:02 Unknown Speaker #4

The first markers.

0:02:04 Unknown Speaker #1

The only true Marcos in town.

0:02:08 Unknown Speaker #2

Honey, hold up your birth certificate. Show them. Throw them

0:02:14 Unknown Speaker #1

way we do our Marcos family dance. Who? Uh huh. Who? Huh? Marko's family. Dan did.

0:02:27 Unknown Speaker #2

Wow, that's an unbelievable dance from the original. Marcos is

0:02:33 Unknown Speaker #3

unbelievable. That see, this is what I deal with folks every single day, the original Marcoses walking around town doing their market family dance. It's so simple, you know, it's not a family dance. When you just put your hands back and forth to the left and right and say who?

0:02:48 Unknown Speaker #1

Just a personal attack on you. You take it so personally,

0:02:53 Unknown Speaker #3

I got to take a break. I'm gonna go smoke a cigarette.

0:02:56 Unknown Speaker #1

Okay, usually We don't say that off the air into the microphone, but I guess we'll have Mr Markos back in a few now. What

0:03:05 Unknown Speaker #1

wonderful jubilee it is. Guys, have you gotten into any of this awesome fried food?

0:03:05 Unknown Speaker #2

0:03:11 Unknown Speaker #2

Oh, my God, Bob, I had a funnel cake earlier for breakfast. That is,

0:03:49 Unknown Speaker #1

need to do it for breakfast. You know what I mean? I could have saved it. It would have been a great share for me and my friends at the end of the night, but instead I had a whole one covered in strawberry compote for breakfast. And I am knocked on my ass all day.

0:04:03 Unknown Speaker #2

Yes, Bob and I up here are ruined. Folks were ruined.

0:04:37 Unknown Speaker #4

I got my head's got a little sticky from the funnel kick. My notes are ruined, as is my stomach. So we're gonna have to just know what the floats are as we see him come up.

0:04:49 Unknown Speaker #1

Yeah, I guess we do have a bit more of a bird's eye view up here rather than you down after the site of the float will keep a lookout and update you as you can. Now, back to you being so queasy. Just try to stay looking in one direction.

0:06:33 Unknown Speaker #1

local Protestant church trots Jesus out every year in the Jubilee. Dan boy, is it a gas?

0:06:42 Unknown Speaker #2

Now Jesus is going to give his sermon from the Mount, his classic sermon from the Mount right here in the middle of town as they as the floats slows to a halt. Let's have a listen with a little bit of flair with that cane he's got Oh, it's almost a a vaudevillian routine from Jesus Oh, Jesus. Taking a big spill down the sticker where he's getting

0:07:26 Unknown Speaker #1

Jesus, Repeatedly asking for a name, man and the rest of folks on the float saying no.

0:07:32 Unknown Speaker #2

Oh, it seems like there's a much of Judas is on the float float is packed with Judases Jesus stepping off the float, making his way to Oh, no, not the onion rings stand Jesus, No Jesus No taking

0:07:53 Unknown Speaker #1

0:08:11 Unknown Speaker #1

Not the first time we've heard that

Of course. Local Jesus. Always a surprised what it do. Jesus. Let's hear Voakes. I'm ruined. People looking

0:08:52 Unknown Speaker #1

around very confused. Not sure what? The point of this float is,

0:08:59 Unknown Speaker #4

but you've been looking at the Judas Float the whole time. It's not the Jesus float were tricked you because we're about Judas is

0:09:06 Unknown Speaker #2

what the hell. It's a trick from the Church of Judas down the street, United Church, Judas.

0:09:17 Unknown Speaker #1

Okay, And this floats getting shoot along by the pastor, now not pass faster, shooing the float along. Shoo! Shoo! Pastor brings out a push broom and is shooting the float down the track, which is the same street.

0:09:35 Unknown Speaker #4

It's Charles, and I'm down here with a great view of the next float. The oldest man and the youngest baby on this influx. Well, this

0:09:45 Unknown Speaker #2

is an awesome tradition. The town of Hamilton. They find the newest baby in the most decrepit man, and they slam them together on a float, and it usually ends with the baby being hurt. You think

0:10:00 Unknown Speaker #4

would be the same oldest man every year, but we have not kept the oldest man through the whole parade yet. Let's see if this year we finally make it.

0:10:08 Unknown Speaker #1

Yet life expectancy in Hamilton has been surprisingly short ever since the Jubilee has started. We lose our oldest person every year. Ah, vile accident but we dio keep the baby.

0:10:25 Unknown Speaker #2

All right, so there, coming along here. Of course, the oldest man will get a chance to speak here of the communal mike

0:10:36 Unknown Speaker #5

0:11:28 Unknown Speaker #2

I'm bringing this baby to meet you, Julia. Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh, God is pulling out a knife, baby. Baby's mother coming to grab the baby. Oh, using the knife, he's brandished babies, friend. I'll bring her to hell with me, grabbing the lady. We've got so many new friends, Julia.

0:11:55 Unknown Speaker #4

And that's what team float is right behind them. And they are saving those guns right at him. I'm Bruce and generally treat to help SWAT team. Let's celebrate them like we do every year

0:12:07 Unknown Speaker #2

Julia Charles, looking sicker than ever. Julia of Cool Charles. Try to put your stomach issues at bay and save the baby. Who? I'm being rushed by. This man, Julia. A man is on. He wants to come see us. Well, Jew,

0:12:50 Unknown Speaker #4

I'm on the scene. I'm Russia. I'm rushing the world's oldest man, or at least Hamilton's. But I'm right in between him and the porta potties, and I don't know which way to go. There's a fork in the road and frankly, I don't know what to tell you guys. But if I don't find the porter parties, I will be ruined.

0:13:05 Unknown Speaker #1

Did you say porno parties? Are they having parties in the poorer parties? Thankfully, he

0:13:13 Unknown Speaker #2

chose the toilet and not know Charles. No terrorist. And so with this, it looks like there's a cloud. There's a cloud coming over. Hopefully we'll get one single lightning bolt and take out the old man. I'm protecting it. I at the Doppler. The Doppler is predicting a single lightning boat. Put

0:13:38 Unknown Speaker #1
