In celebration of the NDG Comedy Fest that is going on right now we are turning the clocks back to when Derek Seguin had just SiriusXM Top Comic back in 2015.

Why? Well Derek Seguin will be closing out the festivities this weekend at The Wheel Club this Sunday, May 2st (get your tickets now). It’s crazy that we recorded this nearly 8 years ago. This city has been through quite a bit and I’m honestly super stoked for Walter to be putting this all together to celebrate English comedy in my old stomping ground of NDG.

This episode is quite a crazy time capsule. Derek spends some time in this episode talking about Mike Ward’s legal battles with Petit Jérémy – a legal case that took another 6 years or so to sort itself out (if it actually has).

As I mention in the lead-in to this episode, we’ve had a huge chunk of the performers of the NDG Comedy Fest on our little podcast over here. Off the top of my head we’ve had Derek Seguin, Joey Elias, Abby Stonehouse, Troy Stark, Mike Carrozza, Vance Michel, Serag Meletian, Daniel Carin, Elspeth Wright and probably a few more … not to mention our co-hosts Chris Venditto of Walter J. Lyng or the wonderfully talented and filthy provider of our theme song Leighland Beckman.

Anyhow, sit back and enjoy this trip down memory lane and then immediately buy yourself some tickets for the NDG COMEDY FEST.

NDG Comedy Fest – Go Plug Yourself 277 with Walter J. Lyng & Troy Stark

The Montreal podcast that asks Walter J. Lyng and Troy Stark (of The NDG Comedy Fest) not one, but two questions:

What is your favorite Montreal thing that isn’t around anymore?
What is your dream vehicle that is also a Transformer?

Those questions asked by Yannick and Alex (Les Voyeurs de Vues) back in episode 276.

My former (and sometimes still) co-host Walter J. Lyng can never be faulted for his work ethic. It seems like every time he closes a project off he’s got something bigger and better in the pipeline. Why not add “organize a comedy festival” to that list?

The inaugural NDG Comedy Fest is happening next weekend from May 19th to the 21st in beloved Montreal borough NDG. Walter is bringing out some of the biggest names in the Montreal comedy scene for your enjoyment. Derek Seguin, Leighland Beckman, Joey Elias, Bowser & Blue and a host of other amazing comedians round out the festivities. Walter tells me that the best way to enjoy the NDG Comedy Fest The best way to enjoy the festival is to get the all-access pass (to buy an all-access pass just click on any event and select the all-access pass option at ticketing).

Troy Stark also jumps on this episode (is he one of the NDG Comedy All Stars perhaps?) and we have a grand old time at the back of Grumpy’s.

Listen to the show, go to the NDG Comedy Fest.

It’s that easy.
