“That’s Canadian Entertainment” for $600 please.

“This Vancouver native lent his voice to the city’s public transit in 2018; here’s a sample — ‘Get those feet off the seat! My mom might be sitting there one day. Come on!'”

That was Vancouver actor and comedian Seth Rogen, who served as a guest voice on the Metro Vancouver transit system for three months in 2018. His distinctive voice (and laugh) was heard on SkyTrain platforms, SkyTrain cars and buses across the region. Seth tackled transit etiquette as well as interesting tidbits about Vancouver and his relation to it.

The clip aired on the Sept. 13 episode of Jeopardy, a television game show that quizzes contestants on trivia. Jeopardy is in its 38th season and airs on YES TV in Canada.
