    Ep.24 - Guest: CHRIS LOCKE

    A fun and hilarious chat with comedian/actor/good guy Chris Locke. We talk about good things, evil things, random things, and old detectives. He and I have both played detectives in feature films - me in No Clue, and he in the upcoming, newly released WHO'S YOUR FATHER?  Give us a listen. It's good for you, probably.

    Ep.23 - Guest: KATIE-ELLEN HUMPHRIES

    Anytime I get the chance to sit down and shoot the breeze with Katie-Ellen Humphries, it's always an absolute... and I don't use this word lightly... a delight!!! I highly recommend it, if you ever get the chance. But if that opportunity doesn't come your way, I have thoughtfully recorded a delightful chat that you can avail yourself of right here on this episode of TheButtpod. I yak it up with Katie about swimming, being covered in hickies, loving the language, and how she found herself doing comedy on a Saturday night at The Tallyho! (Every bit as exotic as it sounds). Enjoy!

    Ep.22 - Guest: TIM LONG

    If you're interested in comedy writing, this episode is FOR YOU...because I sit down and chat with one of the best in the biz. Writer/Producer from Late Night with David Letterman and a wee show called The Simpsons, TIM LONG parks his mug at the mic and we have ourselves a helluva a good time. I expect you will too if you give this episode a listen.

    Ep.21 - Guest: JACKIE PIRICO

    I've recently become a big fan of my guest in this episode. JACKIE PIRICO is a hilarious Toronto-based comedian who has performed all across this country and beyond, and her comedy album "Splashpad" was nominated for a Juno Award and is fantastically funny and original. When I listened to it, I knew I'd be tracking her down to come on the podcast. And she graciously accepted, and we subsequently had a blast and a holotta laughs! I hope you enjoy.

    Ep.20 - Guest: BEN MINER

    A terrific and insightful chat with comedian and SiriusXM host/exec Ben Miner. We discuss many things... so, so many things... if I told you them here, it may perhaps dissuade you from listening to the entire episode which would be, frankly, the cruellest thing I could imagine doing to you. I hope you enjoy listening as much as I enjoyed yakking.

    Ep.19 - Guest: CHRIS FINN

    Over my 35 years in comedy, few people in the business have made me laugh more than this episode's guest, my long-time pal Chris Finn. We met as stand-ups in the late 80s and Chris went on to become one of the most prolific and sought-after comedy writers (award-winning comedy writers, mind you!) in the country. But aside from his professional comedic successes, he and I consistently gut ourselves laughing whenever we get together. It happened again here.

    Ep.18 - Guest: JAMES HARTNETT

    What a lovely and pleasant chat we had! By "we" I mean "myself and my guest James Hartnett". I also believe in my bosom that you'll have a lovely and pleasant time listening to our chat about the various things we have in common: stand-up, writing, acting, being the youngest child of slightly older parents and whether or not we got physically pounded by our older siblings.

    Ep.17 - Guest: LAURENCE BROWN

    Laurence Brown uses the term "Youtube sensation" as a joke, but in his case it's the truth, dammit! And I'm a fan. I had a terrific chat with him about how his online adventure came to be, why he moved from England to America, and why he has never deigned to set foot in Canada.
