Jared Wilder – GPYS 307

Posted In: Go Plug Yourself, Podcast, Podcasting

The Montreal podcast that asks New York comedian Jared Wilder: “Which of your friend’s parents did you want to hook up with?” returns for another chaotic freewheeling round of podcasting gold. That question asked of course by none other than the Hardcore Hero – The Green Phantom back in episode 306 (the views and opinions of The Green Phantom do not represent those of this podcast or its hosts).

So breaking slightly from tradition I must first admit that Jared Wilder is not from Montreal. However, he co-hosts a football show over on YouTube called “In the Trenches” with our very own Chris Venditto so we’re going to consider him an honorary Montrealer for the purposes of this show.

Jared Wilder has been all over the place in New York City and Los Angeles, performing with The Groundlings and Second City and having studied and performed at some of New York’s finest acting schools. *cough cough Stella Adler cough cough*

Obviously with a classy guest like that we spend a bunch of time talking about pro-wrestling and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. That’s how we roll!

You should definitely check out “In the Trenches” to support our boy Venditto and Jared and you can keep up to date with Jared on Instagram and Facebook too.

Go Plug Yourself! Be somebody!

Go Plug Yourself: Chris Venditto Returns!

by on October 24, 2024 at 4:56 pm
Posted In: Go Plug Yourself, Podcast, Podcasting

Don’t call it a comeback! Loyal Go Plug Yourself listeners have noted that we haven’t had Chris Venditto on the show in a couple of months. He’s been on our Long Term Injured Reserve list for the last few months while he took care of a few things but guess what?

Chris Venditto is back, baby!

Tell your friends (and book him)!

In all seriousness it was extremely special for me to be able to have Chris back with us at the back of Grumpy’s and I thought we should celebrate his return by not having a “usual” guest and instead getting Walter J. Lyng and Troy Stark to come out and just have a free-form roundtable discussion about whatever nonsense happens to come to mind.

It was great. If it’s not for you – well, I dunno, listen to it anyways and leave a 5-star review on whatever platform you listen on. What do you want me to say?

You should be hearing more from Chris Venditto on this very podcast and you should also being seeing more of Chris around town lighting up microphones as one of this city’s finest comedians. So what are you waiting for? Listen to the show already, let’s go!

GPYS – It’s a Cowboy Summer

by on April 24, 2024 at 1:50 pm
Posted In: Go Plug Yourself, Podcast, Podcasting

Every now and then Chris Venditto and I like to take an episode to catch up and talk mostly about the Montreal Canadiens and wrestling. What a better way to kick off Cowboy Summer than talking about hockey?

Well this episode is that but also includes us branching out into talking about the Montreal PWHL team and Chris shares his thoughts on the absence of the Just for Laughs festival this summer in Montreal now that we’re nearly two months removed from the news and he has had a little more time to ruminate.

Chris has declared the summer of 2024 to be “Cowboy Summer” (I may be paraphrasing) but when Beyoncé has released a country album and apparently everyone is listening to “A Bar Song” by Shaboozey it’s hard to deny that he might be on to something.

I actually wonder if country music festivals will do better this year than the “normal” music festivals.

I guess we’ll have to wait and see.

So if you haven’t seen Chris lately, this is your perfect chance to catch up with Venditto while listening to a conversation where you’re not allowed to say anything- aka a podcast!

Enjoy!

Serag Meletian Returns – GPYS 289

by on December 7, 2023 at 6:38 am
Posted In: Go Plug Yourself, Podcast, Podcasting

The Montreal arts and entertainment podcast that asks comedian Serag Meletian: What is the most embarrassing thing that’s happened to you? That question asked by our guest Éloïse Marseille back in episode 289.

Incredibly it has been exactly one year since we’ve had Serag Meletian on the show to the day and it’s a testament to the greatness of this show that we get to have guys like him as pretty much recurring guests (stay tuned for the first week of December 2024 when we will have him back on the show). He’s one of Montreal’s most talented comedians regardless of whether or not he’s working face or heel.

We talk about wrestling, being a wrestling fan, embarrassing stories and comic books. You can hear Venditto’s eyes glass over when we get into the comic book talk but I don’t care man it’s the best. If you want to get to know Serag better as a person, this is the podcast you’ve been waiting for. If you haven’t, why don’t you want to know more about Serag Meletian as a person? What’s wrong with you?

Go Quarantine Yourself 2 (aka GPYS 204)

by on April 2, 2020 at 6:31 am
Posted In: Go Plug Yourself, Podcast, Podcasting

Hey, remember back in Go Plug Yourself Episode 200 where I said “thank goodness Lawrence wasn’t on the cruise with the COVID-19” outbreak and we all laughed it off?

Those were the days.

So, in light of our current state of lockdown we thought we would mix it up a little bit by continuing the transformation of Go Plug Yourself into Go Quarantine Yourself and in the spirit of isolation we will be isolating ourselves from our guests. For the next few episodes we’re going to get to know our new co-hosts a little better.

To officially kick things off (despite this being Episode 2 of this little sideshow) Inés, Lawrence and Chris have all brought lists of their favorite comedians and all time greats. They talk a little about how these performers got them into comedy, why they’re so good and some of their favorite performances.

So download the episode, press play, and pretend we just invaded your home to have a long conversation about comedy while we ignore you.

Inés Anaya never stops finding ways to be funny: writing for Hindwing Press, running shows like Stand Up Story Slam and getting on the mic at comedy shows all over the city. The best way to keep track of what she’s up to next is on Instagram @clout__atlas

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 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.
