    Ep 88: The Outskirts of The Outskirts

    We’re back with Ep 5 of The Outskirts - our creepy serialized show within the world of The Town Show. Mark and Ryan start things off with a scene between the two undercover cops - Carol and “The Sad Man” racing through the desert on a silent ATV where they encounter a Mad Max-esque encampment. Then they jump over to a scene with our main character Engle - who is faked his death and the man who is trying to change his identity for him - Shadow Spike. And last but not least we end with a very steamy scene with the Pig Man, and we end on a thrilling cliff hanger - all the be wrapped up in Ep 6 of The Outskirts - the Season 1 finale.  Sign up here for our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/TheTownShow The Town Show is sponsored by No Smoke Coffee - "No Smoke.

    Ep 83 - Squawk Palace w/ Allie Entwistle

    Comedian Allie Entwistle joins Mark and guest host Christine Bortolin to tell us all about Kelowna, BC’s infamous “boob wall”. They actually talk a lot about the night life in Kelowna.
