The Montreal podcast that will forever and always hold Walter J. Lyng near and dear to its heart returns! Just like live shows!

It was 10 years ago in 2011 that Walter first brought Pitching Knife Fight to the Montreal Fringe Festival, and I don’t think it’s a coincidence that later that same summer he would decide to start a podcast with me. I’m not sure exactly what the connection is or was but I’m sure it’s there.

To celebrate the 10th anniversary of that momentous show Walter is bring “KNIFE FIGHT X” back to the Fringe. Is it a remount of Pitching Knife Fight? No. Is it Night Fight? Also no. It’s something in between and better baby! I mean, probably. I haven’t seen it.

To help Walter properly usher in this feat of one-man showmanship (featuring a number of other people) we need all the hosts, so that means that Lawrence, Inés and Chris are around to host this thing we’re still calling a podcast.

In the spirit of live theater I have not edited out some of the technical difficulties in this episode. Seriously, it’s in the spirit of live theater and not laziness I promise.

Get your tickets to KNIFE FIGHT X right here, right now.  The show opens this Saturday June 12!

Enjoy the show!
