Sean Campbell (TSN 690) – GPYS 217

Posted In: Go Plug Yourself, Podcast, Podcasting

The Montreal podcast that dares to ask Sean Campbell: Keith, Chris and Lawrence – Fuck, Marry, Kill? (because Allie Pearse made us).

We take advantage of the fact that Inés is still on hosting hiatus (host-atus?) to devote a full episode to… SPORTS!

Sean Campbell from TSN 690 joins Chris, Lawrence and I to talk about being a play by play announcer, the joys of call in radio shows, hanging up on callers, Pierre McGuire and Lawrence and I both kind of zone out when Venditto and Sean talk about the NFL.

You can listen to Sean over on TSN 690 all over the place. He calls the Laval Rocket games, features on multiple shows and produces even more. Check him out on Twitter @seanrcampbell for the hottest takes. Hot takes!

Oh, and listen to this show.

Chris Venditto is another funny person in Montreal who you can see all over the place and if you don’t want to miss him take the stage you should follow him on all the socials. He’s @chrisvenditto on Twitter and Instagram so you should follow him on those two things. He also produces shows with the guys at Perfect Bite Productions who you should also follow on Instagram and on Facebook.

Lawrence Corber also produces some shows you may have heard of (you should probably check out the next Healthy Living show when you get a chance) and if you’re close with him you can call him Lully. The other way to call him “Lully” is to follow him on his socials. @Lully514 on Instagram.

 Keith does all sorts of things here on 9to5.cc, he works with the other founders on 9to5 (illustrated), co-hosts our two podcasts: The 9to5 Entertainment System and Go Plug Yourself and blogs here as The Perspicacious Geek.

Allie Pearse – GPYS 216

Posted In: Go Plug Yourself, Podcast, Podcasting

The Montreal podcast that asks comedian Allie Pearse: If you had to trademark a slogan, what would it be? And: Do you drink before creating/performing? (asked by Gonzalo Coloma (YES Montreal) & Daian Tang (CHOKITEM) back in episode 215).

If you haven’t had the chance to check out Allie’s sex positive showcase “Slut Parade“in Toronto then do yourself a favor and put it right up there on your list of things to do when all of this pandemic horror is over. Allie Pearse not only produces that amazing show but is also a tremendously talented comic who also happens to have recently landed a writing gig on a little show you might have heard of called Letterkenny.

We talk comedy during a pandemic, being a dirty comedian and take shots at assholes who don’t understand that they need to grow up and deal with their privileged bullshit.

It’s a great show everyone, trust me.

Joey Elias Returns! GPYS 214

by on August 20, 2020 at 6:05 am
Posted In: Go Plug Yourself, Podcast, Podcasting

The Montreal podcast that asks Joey Elias: What is the one major law you would break if you could? (asked by Coko Galore and Ophira Calof in Episode 213).

Joey Elias is one of the pillars of the Montreal comedy scene. As Uncle Ben told Peter Parker: with great power comes great responsibility. To that end Joey has also become synonymous with a number of charitable organizations in and around the city, raising money and awareness for causes and members of the community that need help.

One of those causes is exactly what has brought Joey to the show today: Joey Elias and the Comedy All Stars at the Royalmount Drive-In. Joey has been putting together this event for 9 years running and even though this year will be different (it’s being held at a drive-in instead of the traditional venue of Club Soda), the cause remains the same and in many ways is even more important than ever before.

The event will be raising money for 03: On Our Own, with 25$ from each ticket sold going straight to help out O3.

So get your tickets now while you still can over at Eventbrite and head to the Royalmount Drive-In on August 26th to see Joey Elias, Harrison Weinreb, Amanda McQueen, Rodney Ramsay and GPYS’ own Lawrence Corber and support a great cause.

Our Cities On Our Stages 2020 – Coko Galore and Ophira Calof (GPYS 213)

by on August 6, 2020 at 12:56 pm
Posted In: Go Plug Yourself, Podcast, Podcasting

The Montreal podcast that asks the organizers of Our Cities On Our Stages: “Would you rather be a robot, and how much of a robot? Arms? Legs? Whole body?” (as asked by The Boids way back in episode 202!)

Coko Galore and Ophira Calof are our guests (remember when we had guests on this show?) this week to talk about the 5th Annual ‘Our Cities On Our Stages’. What is ‘Our Cities On Our Stages’?

“It’s a diversity and inclusion symposium, providing tools to BIPOC, disabled and LGBTQ2S+ comedy artists to pave a new way for comedy. This year, “Our Cities on Our Stages” is entirely online, opening the discussion to a global audience. From Friday August 7th to Sunday August 9th, participants will engage with topics including authenticity in storytelling, building community centred productions, and creating online shows. The recent launch of Bad Dog Comedy TV will be used as a case study and model.” (From Bad Dog Theatre Official Website).

Coko is the Artistic and Managing Director of the event and Ophira is a Curator and Producer. Normally the symposium takes place in Toronto but this year, like many other things, it is taking place entirely online! Which means that it doesn’t matter if you live in Toronto, Montreal or literally anywhere else on the planet,  you can still attend!

So listen now for a lively chat about the MCU (again?), Watchmen, making comedy more accessible and be sure to check out the event on Facebook, join the Facebook Group and obviously feel free to donate to help make sure this year’s free edition is a success!

IMPORTANT: Register here as space is actually limited to the panels and you must register in order to attend!

Enjoy the show!

(Oh and check out Chris Sandiford on Instagram @ohchris for important context to our discussion).

MCU Part 2 – Go Quarantine Yourself 9 (GPYS 212)

by on July 23, 2020 at 6:26 am
Posted In: Go Plug Yourself, Podcast, Podcasting

The Montreal podcast that used to have guests on to talk about awesome stuff in Montreal and now just talks about comic movies and Game of Thrones. Oh dear lord we’ve become literally every other podcast ever.

Walter once again inserts himself into another episode and Chris, Lawrence and I turn our attention to Phase 3 of the MCU (while Walter tries with varying degrees of success at derailing the whole thing).

Oh and guess what, if things work out in the next two weeks we’re going to have an actual guest? Say whhaaaat. In the meantime enjoy this thing that has become this show.

MCU Part 1 – Go Quarantine Yourself 8 (GPYS 211)

Posted In: Go Plug Yourself, Podcast, Podcasting

The Montreal arts and entertainment podcast that is still in quarantine is back baby!

Walter shows up again to hijack the show/grace us with his presence while we talk about the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Lawrence and I came into the MCU as comic books fans, Christopher was working at Blockbuster in 2008 when Iron Man ruled the silver screen and Walter just really likes Batman.

Don’t know how many more of these “Quarantine” episodes we’ve got left before we start having real guests on again but we’re probably going to be talking more about the MCU next episode. Maybe without Walter.

There’s 22 movies you guys and we barely talk about half of them.

Enjoy the show!

Wrestling! – Go Quarantine Yourself 7 (aka GPYS 210)

by on June 25, 2020 at 10:30 pm
Posted In: Go Plug Yourself, Podcast, Podcasting

The Montreal arts and entertainment podcast that is bold enough to do yet another episode devoted entirely to the world of professional wrestling.

Walter jumps back on this episode to talk with Chris and I about our shared passion of the squared circle (Lawrence also loves wrestling but couldn’t make it, Inés does not love wrestling so obviously is not around).

You may have heard that Edge and Randy Orton had The Greatest Wrestling Match Ever recently, so we talk about that, but in the spirit of the ‘Go Quarantine Yourself’ series we pivot towards some of our early memories as blossoming wrestling fans, namely: hitting wrestling moves on your friends and siblings.

Listen now and get to know us all a little better in the process, enjoy.

Lawrence, Chris and Keith Talk About Sports, Cartoons and Cell Phones – GQYS 5/GPYS 208

by on May 14, 2020 at 4:52 am
Posted In: Go Plug Yourself, Podcast, Podcasting

The Montreal comedy podcast that used to do interviews but is now just me and some comedians talking about whatever we feel like it.

In this edition of “Go Quarantine Yourself” I’m joined by Lawrence and Chris to talk about childhood. We also talk a bit about sports and the current state of comedy but there is a surprising amount of content about cell phones in here too. I think this is the first episode where we were not plagued by any amount of technical woes so that’s nice.

Thanks for sticking around with us you lovely beautiful people,

Lawrence & Keith Talk About D&D (Go Quarantine Yourself 4 / GPYS 207)

by on April 30, 2020 at 6:17 am
Posted In: Go Plug Yourself, Podcast, Podcasting

The Montreal podcast that has gone into isolation rolls on this week as we continue to isolate ourselves from guests.

Lawrence and Keith decide to capitalize on the fact that Chris & Inés weren’t around to talk a lot about Dungeons & Dragons. Lawrence recently started playing with a group of Montreal comics and we talk about building characters, group dynamics and some real nerdy ass nonsense. Yes!

Michael Mando Returns – GPYS 206

by on April 17, 2020 at 3:23 pm
Posted In: Go Plug Yourself, Podcast, Podcasting

The Montreal podcast that brings Montrealer Michael Mando right into your ears even though we’re all in self-isolation.

Michael (once again) puts us all to shame with his drive and motivation as he has spent his time in isolation literally learning how to use sound editing software to put his music together. Mind you, he also has some inspiring words for us all. Check out Michael Mando’s debut single “The Wild One” on YouTube and tune in to the season finale of Better Call Saul this Monday (April 20th) on AMC. And if you haven’t watched it yet there’s basically no better time to binge, what else you got going on?

Oh hey, Walter co-hosts this one again! 2020 is crazy.
