The Liquid Courage Podcast Amanda Pereira

In today’s episode, Amanda sits down over a cold glass of oat milk with actor, comedian, writer, and content creator Isabel Kanaan (CBC’s Air Farce, CTV’s Hudson & Rex, Hallmark’s Good Witch) to discuss the importance of befriending yourself, how her identity as a Queer person wasn’t taken seriously, and how she discovered her greatest muses to be her family. She is a member and a creator of the award-winning Tita Collective, a group of multidisciplinary Filipino artists based out of Toronto, and she is a (hilarious) force on Tik Tok!

In today’s episode, Amanda sits down over her first ever Dark ‘n’ Stormy with writer, content creator, AD, and burrito enthusiast MK Morris (Baroness Von Sketch Show, The Next Step, Wishful Genies) to discuss mental health, where the left-over food from cooking shows ends up, and how there’s no such thing as wasted time. She is the creator of High Hallmark, a show about comedians getting high and watching Hallmark movies, and produces the monthly comedy show See You Next Tuesday at The Second City Toronto, with all proceeds going to the Redwood Women’s Shelter. While the show is currently on hiatus until it is safe to perform live again, MK encourages listeners to still consider donating to Redwood during this time (www.redwood.com), or donating to any charity that brings goodness into the world!The Liquid Courage Podcast: @liquidcouragepodcast / podcastliquidcourage@gmail.comMK Morris: @mk_morrisHigh Hallmark: @highhallmarkSee You Next Tuesday: @seeyou_next_tuesdayThe Redwood Women's Shelter: @theredwoodto*Warning: This episode contains swearing.**Note: This episode was recorded prior to May 25th 2020, and so the lack of acknowledgement or mention of the murder of George Flyod and the current Black Lives Matter movement is because these events had not yet taken place. However, police brutality and systemic racism against Black people in the States, and in Canada where I’m based out of, is not new. It’s not new to May 25th 2020. And so the lack of acknowledgement and initiative taken on my part around anti-racism prior to May 25th 2020 is a product of my own privilege and the blinders they allow me to have. I encourage you to explore and question what privileges you’re privy to, and what blinders you might have up as well. Please educate yourself, continue to educate yourself, take care of yourself, and take action. If you’re unsure where to start, I’ve compiled some resources in the link in my bio on Instagram @liquidcouragepodcast. If you’re still not sure where to start, send me a direct message and I’m more than happy to share the resources that have helped me so far. The stakes are much too high for any of us to actively choose ignorance.
