The people asked “Where is that comedy festival that takes place at Hurley’s?” Well, our dear friends at the World’s Smallest Comedy Night heard the people.

The World’s Smallest Comedy Festival is back for the third edition! World’s Smallest Comedy Festival 3 starts August 11 and runs all the way through until August 18. There are at least 15 shows that you can check out.

Walter, Chris and Lawrence are on this one and it descends pretty quickly into mayhem as a result. All three of these wonderful comedians will be popping up all over the World’s Smallest Comedy Festival but if you want a special treat you should head over to Hurley’s at 10 pm on August 12 for “Look Who’s Talking” which will feature both Go Plug Yourself’s own Chris Venditto and Lawrence Corber up on stage being some of the best crowd work comedians in the city.

You can get your tickets for any of the upcoming shows right now over on eventbrite.ca

Enjoy the show and see you next week!

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.

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 sometimes blogs here as The Perspicacious Geek.

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.

Walter J. Lyng is a stand-up comedian based out of Montreal, you should follow him on Twitter @wallygoodtimes and on Facebook: Walter J. Lyng

GPYS 299: The World’s Smallest Comedy Festival (Again!)

by keith on July 17, 2024 at 10:55 pm

Posted In: Go Plug Yourself, Podcast, Podcasting

Hey, did you know that Go Plug Yourself 300 is happening LIVE as part of the World’s Smallest Comedy Festival on July 22nd at 6 pm at Hurleys?

Well guess what? It is. One of more than 500 shows that will be happening over the course of ten days (July 21st to July 31st) hosted by the absolute maniacs behind Montreal’s beloved “World’s Smallest Comedy Night” each and every week.

So guess what? We have three of those wonderful maniacs on the show once again this week to talk about Anne of Green Gables, Prince Edward Island, manspreading and probably a million other things that I’m not remembering right now. There’s a whole part that I don’t even know about where I get up to go get more drinks and Walter is left to his own devices with Troy and Vance. That’s audio that I am about to publish and I have no idea what it might be! Walter said I might have to remove it! But I didn’t!

That’s the kind of show we run here and that’s the kind of raw unfiltered nonsense you’ll be in for if you come down to Hurley’s on Monday.

In the meantime, sit back, relax and enjoy this show and head to troystark.net for more info and tickets to the World’s Smallest Comedy Festival (including episode 300 of this very show!)

Go Plug Yourself 259: Walter J. Lyng, Vance Michel and Lawrence Corber

Is Lawrence Corber a host or a guest on this episode? It’s not clear. Does it matter? It’s Just for Laughs baby!

If you’ve been following the podcast in the last week or so you know we’ve had a few interviews with a couple of great out of town guests. However, at its heart, Go Plug Yourself is a show about Montrealers so it was only right that we brought in the Grand Daddy of Go Plug Yourself himself Walter J. Lyng along with Vance Michel and co-host Lawrence Corber to talk about some of the amazing local comedy going on this summer in Montreal.

Walter (along with Lawrence, Morgan O’Shea, Reese Turner and Derek Seguin) are bringing back Rad Dads once again this year to Café Cleopatra for Rad Dads Forever and Vance Michel will be a part of Harrison and Gab’s Video Comedy Night. Lawrence and Walter will both be appearing at Figure It Out with Mike Carrozza and Lawrence will also be featured on the Discovery Series. Walter and Lawrence will also both be recording sets for an upcoming JFL Originals album.

*deep breath.

BUT THAT’S NOT ALL – Walter and Vance are also hosting The World’s Smallest Comedy Festival that’s already under way until July 29th at Hurley’s Irish Pub. 12 nights of amazing local comedy because you can’t get enough of that sweet sweet laughter.
