Live From Montreal! Chris Venditto & Mike Carrozza (aka The Birthday Boyz!) – GPYS 131

by on May 18, 2017 at 7:56 am
Posted In: Go Plug Yourself, Podcast, Podcasting

The best podcast in Montreal (I can say that because we’re the only podcast to be voted Best of Montreal for 6 CONSECUTIVE YEARS ACROSS 2 PUBLICATIONS) returns to the Comedyworks for 1) Chris Venditto’s birthday bash and then 2) Mike Carrozza rudely skyjacking the show because apparently it is also his birthday.

Walter and I are definitely sober in this episode. Spoilers: There’s a lot of yelling.gpys131-vendittocarrozza

Stay up to date with Chris on his Facebook Page, why don’t you? And he’s the new hype man for Comedyworks so be sure to check out all the shows they’ve got coming up too.

Mike is a busy man, you should follow him on Facebook as well and if you go to all of his shows you will ALSO be a busy man (or woman, or person).

As always, a big thank you to the providers of our theme song: Aural Turpitude!

Helping You Vote For the Best of Montreal

by on April 4, 2017 at 12:05 pm
Posted In: Blogs, Homepage, Keith, Montreal, Perspicacious Geek

BOM-2017-web-box-blueEvery year, we do a bit of campaigning for that “Best of Montreal” thing that do over at Cult MTL. The validation that comes from being voted as one of Montreal’s favorite anythings usually gives us the confidence boost necessary to do what we do for a little while longer.

Obviously we want you to vote for us in the appropriate categories (Best Podcast, Best Website, Best Artist, etc) but we also want to give some love to our friends.

In order for your votes to count, you need to fill out a minimum of 25 categories. So, if you’re not sure what to vote for, why not check out our list for some ideas? I mean, maybe you have your own favorite things but 25 categories is an awful lot and I think we can all agree that Starbucks doesn’t really need that recognition as “Best Coffee” in Montreal.

What are you waiting for? Vote now at Best of Montreal over at Cult MTL. Deadline is April 7th.

And, if you’re looking for how to vote to fill out your ballot, here’s how I voted:

4. Best Sports Personality / Meilleure vedette sportive

For some reason there isn’t a “Best Sports Team” or League or whatver category. So I voted for the entirey of Montreal Roller Derby’s New Skids on the Block as Best Sports Personality.

15. Best Radio Show / Meilleure émission de radio

We’ve got a lot of friends on the radio, but the fact that we had Danny Payne on the podcast gives him the vote (and that Heather B is no longer on the radio). Vote for The Pressure Drop on CJLO.

16. Best Radio Host / Meilleur animateur de radio

You know what? Even though she’s no longer on Montreal radio, she was for most of 2016. So give her the sendoff she deserves and vote Heather B for Best Radio Host of 2016.

22. Best Website / Meilleur site web

Duh, this one. 9to5.cc is the best DIY website in Montreal. We try to write comics, do podcasts and blog all without any sort of corporate shenanigans.

23. Best Twitter / Meilleur compte Twitter

Also us. @9to5cc on Twitter yo. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Fringe Yourself: Miss Katelyn’s Grade Threes Prepare for the Inevitable

by on June 8, 2015 at 10:32 pm
Posted In: Fringe, Homepage, Podcasting

That’s a prety long title. Elena Belyea (and after about 15 minutes Director Jon Lachlan Stewart too) shows up to talk about her upcoming dark comedy “Miss Katelyn’s Grade Threes Prepare for the Inevitable”. Sarah starts this one off with a pretty rough question, but after we get through that Elena manages to make this very serious subject matter seem like it might just make for a very entertaining Fringe experience.misskatelyn

Go Fringe Yourself: Is This Pretentious?

Holly Greco and Walter have a history. Namely, Holly used to produce the 13th Hour when Walter would run his antics up to 11 while hosting it. This year though, she’s extending her portfolio from producer to performer (and writer, and dancer and… and… other stuff!)  Team Greco (is it pretentious to name your team after yourself?) takes on the contemporary art/dance world in their dance comedy.

Terrible Mix From 2001, Part 2: The Perspicacious Geek

by on December 16, 2014 at 7:58 am
Posted In: Blogs, Homepage, Keith, Perspicacious Geek

20141208_194936Ok, so where were we? Joan Jett was still hot and we were working our way through a mix CD that I made when I was 17. Obviously if you haven’t read last week’s article where I detail the first 11 tracks of this mix, you should go do that. Before we get started, I thought it might be cool to paint a more vivid picture of the world in Spring of 2001.  Perhaps clues into what sort of mindset I was in when making this mix (events from History Orb.com):

  • Jan 4th – Rapper Vanilla Ice spends night in jail after allegedly ripping out some of his wife’s hair during a row
  • Jan 8th – 28th American Music Award: Faith Hill & Kid Rock win
  • Jan 9th – Apple announced iTunes at the Macworld Expo in San Francisco, for organizing and playing digital music and videos. Now widely used by Windows and Mac users.
  • Jan 15th – Wikipedia, a free Wiki content encyclopedia, goes online.
  • Feb 21st – 43rd Grammy Awards: Beautiful Day, Shelby Lynne wins
  • Feb 28th – 15th Soul Train Music Awards: The Isley Brothers, Destiny’s Child & Jay-Z win
  • Mar 24th – 21st Golden Raspberry Awards: Battlefield Earth wins
  • Apr 1st – Same-sex marriage becomes legal in the Netherlands – first country in the world.

That would bring us up to around the time I made this mix. What a world! Now,  Joan Jett had just led us off with some classic early punk rock, it was time for me to put my punk rock cred on display (only to completely destroy it by the end of the album). ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
