PSA Commercial | ‘Tastebuds’

28 Jun

If you ever get hired to write a PSA Commercial, I suggest you write in a character that you’d be perfect for so you can also act in it.

Speaking of which, here is a PSA Commercial for a cool program called,’Tastebuds’ that I wrote and starred in! This awesome program provides nutritional meals to school kids in the Hamilton area.

Produced by the talented folks at Double Barrel Productions. Thanks Roz for the gig!

Why There Are Fewer Women in Comedy

17 Jun

281cleavages

Way back in 2005, I was asked by Definitely Not the Opera on CBC Radio 1 to investigate why there are fewer women in comedy than men.

Recently, this debate has come up again – and I was asked to repost the doc. Luckily, CBC Radio never deletes ANYTHING and I was able to find the story and share it with you!

If you’d like to give it a listen, the audio is posted HERE on the ‘Leave it to Cleavage’ website (the all-female corporate improv comedy group I work with.)

Give it a listen, share, ‘like’ and comment away!

Hey friends! Thanks for checking out my brand spanking new website/blog! I will posting fun things here like my weekly dating and relationship column for CBC Radio (subscribe to the feed and get updates when new ones are posted!) plus other updates about my new life in Toronto and when I’m doing shows back in Vancouver.

And as often as possible, I will add new ‘Ugly Photos’ because frankly I think it’s my funniest work.
