In this week’s episode of THE RON JAMES SHOW, comedian Ron James looks carefully at a world where being prepared isn’t just for boy scouts any more. Noah’s almost finished loading the Ark when an annoying disbeliever shows up trying to pass himself off as an obscure animal; a man’s migraines are so severe, he’s willing to overlook some severe side effects if it spells relief; it’s School Picture Day for L’il Ronnie and he hopes this year’s photo won’t be another dud; and Ron visits picturesque Kelowna, B.C., home of the legendary Lake Okanagan sea monster, Ogopogo.

THE RON JAMES SHOW airs weekly on Friday nights at 8 p.m. (8:30 NT) on CBC-TV, culminating in a one-hour special on New Year’s Day.

Special guests Patrick McKenna, Deb McGrath, Raoul Bhaneja.

In this week’s episode of THE RON JAMES SHOW, comedian Ron James goes into overdrive, wondering why our high-speed, instant gratification-obsessed world is in such a hurry. For a businessman who’s running late, getting gas becomes an obstacle course of modern day inconveniences; the whole world watches as a man threatens to jump off the ledge of an office building but the folks inside are so excited by the media attention, they forget to help; the entire James clan sets up camp at the beach for a day of good clean fun but the Atlantic undertow has other plans for Lil Ronnie’s swimsuit; and Ron reaches new heights paying tribute to the town of Banff.

In this week’s episode of THE RON JAMES SHOW, comedian Ron James runs our post-911 world of Safety & Security through the scanner. When a suave international spy’s code name is compromised, finding a suitable replacement that hasn’t already been taken proves to be his toughest mission; a touchy feely trip through modern day airport security definitely rubs Aunt Viven the wrong way; L’il Ronnie’s Loose Tooth is staying put until he’s sure the tooth fairy can cough up some serous coin; and Ron pays tribute to Hamilton, Ontario, a city of steely determination and the birthplace of Tim Horton’s.
