The Crank

Overview

Tom and Amanda visit Ontario’s viral sensation, Useless Farm, where chaos reigns. He meets Karen the notoriously temperamental emu, Doug Fish the miniature donkey, alpacas, and a miniature stallion, narrowly escaping injury while feeding cranky Karen. Music takes center stage when Stephen Page joins Tom at The Bathouse Recording Studio to record together. Later, Tom surprises fans by joining Stephen onstage in Peterborough for a crowd-pleasing performance of “If I Had $1000000." Back at the farm, Stephen sits down for an intimate podcast interview before the night ends in the farmhouse living room with an impromptu jam session — music echoing through the log walled living room’s 169 years of history.
