He's that bearded guy on TV who hangs out at the Possum Lodge with his impossibly nerdy nephew Harold and a bevy of well-meaning but relatively clueless friends.

This hour long video culls clips that refer to parenting (mostly older children and teens) and grandparenting from the 10-year run of The Red Green Show. Green and friends offer teens advice on tattoos, how high to wear their pants, and what to "just say no" to ("arson, murder, theft, drug trafficking, and real estate sales"). Harold, meanwhile, has thoughts of his own on teen violence. He imagines turning it around for charity. "Imagine the United Way gang versus the UNICEF Way gang in a fundraiser, huh?" The most imaginative moments are drawn from the show's Handyman Corner segments and involve such delights as how to "teen-proof" a car (hint: a church pew is involved) and how to turn a bunch of used tires into a girl's bedroom furniture set.
