Tim and Ray briefly discuss Montreal's food scene, smoked meat sandwiches, maple syrup jelly, and Tim mocking people who rave about French bakeries in Montreal.

In this bit4 moments
  • 19:26Tim argues that leaving New York makes people irrationally praise things like Montreal's French bakeries, which New York also has.
  • 19:44Maple jelly—a cranberry-like spread you slice onto pancakes—doesn't interest Tim despite admitting it's probably good.
  • 20:03Montreal's smoked meat and pastrami sandwiches are good but comparable to places like Katz's in New York, not revelatory.
  • 20:19Tim says he doesn't want to see other comics fail, but has limits on what nonsensical material he'll tolerate.
