GPYS Holiday Sh*t Show!

Posted In: Go Plug Yourself, Podcast, Podcasting

You know what the Go Plug Yourself gang got you for the holidays? A podcast a day early! Our generosity knows no bounds!

It’s time for our most chaotic episode of the year! It’s the Go Plug Yourself shit show featuring too many people to mention but I’m going to try anyways – starting with my amazing co-hosts Walter J. Lyng, Lawrence Corber, Troy Stark, my wife Sarah and Chris Venditto, Go Plug Yourself regulars like Vance Michel, The Green Phantom, Mike Carrozza some cameos by Zak Kik, Shosho Abatouk, Harvey the Dog, some guy named Colin or Connor and I’m pretty sure Hasher was there for a second too. It’s a mess you guys. Enjoy the show!

The audio quality is always a little all over the place with these bad boys and this year is no exception, I tried to level it off a little (our tendency to yell loudly when anyone showed up was particularly brutal on the ear drums) but it is what it is they say. So load this episode up and put it on a speaker so the whole house feels like a party where you’re not allowed to talk. In fairness, nobody is really “allowed” to talk when we’re all together like this. It’s just about being the loudest person in any given moment.

Enjoy the show!

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

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.

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

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

Sarah is somehow still @femalewalter on Instagram. Follow her for pictures of our dogs and sometimes she remembers to post about all the arts and entertainment we take in all year long.

Troy Stark is yet another amazing Montreal comedian and promoter who indulges me in co-hosting this wonderful little show of ours. You can catch him pretty often at the World’s Smallest Comedy Night and Cheap Laughs at Rustik Pub, both of which he produces.

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.

Go Plug Yourself 300!! w/ Alex Rose

by on July 31, 2024 at 4:42 pm
Posted In: Go Plug Yourself, Podcast, Podcasting

The Montreal podcast that would win every single “I Quit” match because we’ve been around for 13 years and we’re not going anywhere baby!

Look, I’m fully aware that this isn’t actually episode 300 – that milestone quietly came and went probably sometime back in 2023. But we didn’t put a number on every episode of “Go Quarantine Yourself” during the pandemic, we don’t put numbers on the Shit Shows for the most part and whenever we just catch up with the hosts we don’t usually attach an official number to those episodes either. So whatever man – it counts! 300 more!

We recorded this one live (pal) as a part of the World’s Smallest Comedy Festival that has been running for the past week and a half and it was a blast. We had friend of the show Alex Rose come on to talk a little about the Fantasia Festival as it enters it’s final weekend and Walter J. Lyng and Lawrence Corber joined me for all the fun at Hurley’s.

Important Podcast News:We updated the questions for 5 Questions! Finally! That means that starting in episode 301 we’ll have a new set of questions to bother our guests with at the end of each episode!

Enjoy the show!

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

by 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 The World’s Smallest Comedy Festival 2024! (GPYS 298)

by on June 20, 2024 at 6:53 pm
Posted In: Go Plug Yourself, Podcast, Podcasting

Listen up you beautiful babies – this podcast has always been adjacent to one of Montreal’s greatest comedy nights “The World’s Smallest Comedy Night” live each week from Hurley’s in the heart of downtown Montreal. So much so that this very real news article links the foundation of the “World’s Smallest Comedy Night” right back to a recording of this very podcast some 6 years ago. So it stands to reason that Go Plug Yourself is one of the first places you are hearing about the World’s Smallest Comedy Festival which will be taking place next month from July 21st to the 31st mostly at Hurley’s Irish Pub on Crescent Street.

Walter J. Lyng and Troy Stark came to the back of Grumpy’s to talk all about their sales jobs and also the second edition of The World’s Smallest Comedy Festival. This is doubly exciting for Go Plug Yourself because guess what? We will be recording Go Plug Yourself 300 LIVE on July 22nd at 6 pm from Hurley’s as part of the festival! Say whaaaaat!? I’ll say it again.

Go Plug Yourself 300 will be LIVE at The World’s Smallest Comedy Festival – it will be our first live episode in over 4 years! That’s crazy!

There’s plenty of other (realistically better) comedy options for you to enjoy for all 10 days of the festival as well so you should keep tabs on troystark.net for the full lineup. So sit back, relax, listen to this podcast and keep an eye out for more announcements regarding the true spirit of comedy in Montreal.

Enjoy the show!

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

by on July 21, 2022 at 7:17 am
Posted In: Go Plug Yourself, Podcast, Podcasting

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.
