Go Fringe Yourself 2023: 9 Lives, 8 Near Misses + Hey Bitch, Love You + Who, Me?

Posted In: Go Plug Yourself, Podcast, Podcasting

The St-Ambroise Montreal Fringe Festival is back! That means our Fringe podcast is back!

Sarah and I are super excited for this year’s Fringe lineup and to celebrate we sat down with the artists behind 3 incredible sounding shows that will be happening as part of the 2023 editions of the Montreal Fringe Festival.

They are (and click the links for more info and tickets!):

It’s the perfect blend of three different shows that will get you thinking about fan fiction, kung-fu and marriage. Your mind will be spinning as you contemplate time-loops, car accidents and Harry Styles. You will dive head first into the world of best friends, daily Facebook posts and anesthesiology. I won’t tell you which show all these things are from, you will have to listen to the whole episode to find out for yourself.

Seriously though, there is so much happening this year, if you’ve been putting off getting back into the Fringe due to that big ole’ pandemic you have a whole lot of fringing to catch up on. Hopefully Sarah and I will see you at the Fringe Park and we can share a beer!

The Montreal Fringe has already kicked off! Head to montrealfringe.ca for tickets, showtimes and good vibes all around.

Enjoy!

The Adoption (Eve Parker Finley, Nicky Fournier & Amanda McQueen) – GPYS 257

by on June 9, 2022 at 6:45 am
Posted In: Fringe, Go Plug Yourself, Montreal, Podcast, Podcasting

The Montreal podcast that asks the cast of “The Adoption”: What’s a story of you being romantically rejected? That question submitted by fellow Montreal Fringe performer Leighland Beckman back in episode 256.

The St-Ambroise Montreal Fringe Festival is in full effect with A-Z programming starting TODAY! The Fringe Park is open, shows are happening live and in person and it is really starting to feel like festival season is finally back in Montreal after 2 long years of being (somewhat) muted by that pesky global pandemic.

One of the hottest tickets at this year’s show is shaping up to be none other than “The Adoption” and we are beyond excited to welcome all three stars to Go Plug Yourself to talk about their upcoming Fringe show. Eve Parker Finley, Nicky Fournier and Amanda McQueen were all gracious enough to join Inés and I at the back of Grumpy’s to take a meandering walk through failed romantic endeavors, fruity pebbles, celebrity crushes and everything in between.

And I meant what I said about “The Adoption” being a hot ticket, the show is already approaching sell-outs on multiple nights so go to MontrealFringe.ca and get your tickets now.

About “The Adoption”

The Adoption is the story of a young person who chooses to become a solo parent to an adopted child – a decision that ripples through their chosen family circle. This play is a short comedy that highlights rituals of belonging, gender-neutral parenting and the dynamic of self-determination and community interdependence.

Playwright & Director: Mael F. Cheff

Poster/Stage/Props Design: Felix Felgo

Actors: Nicky Fournier, Eve Parker Finley & Amanda McQueen

Enjoy the podcast, then buy your tickets and enjoy The Adoption (and a bunch of other Fringe shows obviously).

The Peers (Kate Hammer & Rahul Gandhi) – GPYS 185

by on June 27, 2019 at 6:51 am
Posted In: Go Plug Yourself, Montreal, Podcast, Podcasting

The Montreal podcast that asks The Peers: What is your favorite biopic? (Because Tranna Wintour wanted to know).

Two of The Peers (Rahul & Kate) join Walter and Keith… wait… that’s not Walter! That’s Sarah! That’s right, my wife stepped in for this episode of Go Plug Yourself!

Rahul and Kate talk about the television show Lost, how Shakespeare is everywhere and also just maybe having sex with a fire alien. The Peers will be bringing their rapid fire take on all (that’s right, ALL) of The Bard’s works at Toronto Fringe starting next week, so if you’re in Toronto, be sure to check them out.  Opening night is July 3rd at 9:30 pm at Annex Theatre, 730 Bathurst Street, Toronto.   Tickets and more showtimes here.

Also, how great is it that Rahul and Kate happened to be standing with each other in their promotional material? Worked out great for me anyways. Enjoy the show!

Dance Side of the Mood – Go Fringe Yourself 2018

by on May 31, 2018 at 7:39 am
Posted In: Fringe, Homepage, Podcast, Podcasting

Dance Side of the Moon is our first episode of Go Fringe Yourself! (We will lie later and say another episode is the first, but this is the first one because of time travel). The Festival St-Ambroise Fringe Montreal is kicking off! We’ve already got a few episodes of our Go Plug Yourself spinoff show “Go Fringe Yourself” (where my wife Sarah takes over the co-hosting duties from Walter) in the can but we realized that this show actually starts tonight! Fringe dance-superstars Maxine Segalowitz and Helen Simard to answer the question: “if you danced to the entirety of Dark Side of the Moon, what would it look like?”

If that doesn’t get you interested in heading over to the Freestanding Room for one of the 12 showings of this incredible sounding show. Helen Simard was our guest on this episode to talk about the process that she and Maxine used to develop the show. Enjoy!

Dance Side of the Mood opens May 31st at Freestanding Room and runs until June 17. More information here.

Al Lafrance Returns! – Go Plug Yourself 133

by on June 15, 2017 at 6:41 am
Posted In: Fringe, Go Plug Yourself, Podcast, Podcasting

Al Lafrance is a busy man. In between starring in “The Ballad of Frank Allen” (on this weekend at Fringe) he’s also self-publishing a book (Haikuna Matata, out this fall) and he seems to have accidentally-on-purpose started “Fessetival de Montreal” which celebrates all of Montreal’s butts in a bid against body shaming in honour of the city’s 375th. No really. All of this is true.

Since Al is going to be leaving us this summer and it’s been like 3 years since we’ve had him on, we are proud to have him back! Enjoy the show!gpys133-allafrance

AudioBuzz: Wasteland

So this is it for the audiobuzz podcasts guys. I’m just as sad as you are. I don’t want to make any false promises so if something happens in podcast land between now and the end of the Fringe it will be a happy surprise. If it doesn’t, then I was right and this is the last one. We’ll still be around the festival, so come give us some love.

The second show we watched today was Sex T-Rex’s latest: Wasteland. Which, let’s face it, was basically made for me and my love for Mad Max and all things post-apocalyptic. Listen now!audiobuzz wasteland

You may have seen a poster of Jimmy talking to a puppet wearing glasses. There is no puppet and he wasn’t wearing glasses. So this isn’t the show that it was supposed to be, and it’s not even the show it was. It was however, a pretty good time.audiobuzz dude
