A Canadian comedy group from the mid-eighties, originally heard on CBC radio. They were probably the second regular comedy show on CBC after the Air Farce. (After the show ended their slot was taken over by The Norm, another group worth listening to.) Most famous for the skit/song "Boot to the Head." "Mechanics who can't fix a car ... give them a boot to the head!"
