VDC #253 Moon Therapy w/ Trish Hall

This very well could be a top 5 favourite conversation I have ever had.  We came in to restock and clean The Moon for the Sunday Smoke Show and Trish could tell I wasn't in a good head space.  She immediately sat me down got me high and proceeded to give me the most soul shaking mindset shifting pep talk of my life. She told me exactly what I needed to hear both positive and negative. The combination of being validated for the things I was feeling without letting me off the hook for the ways that I have not been showing up like I need to sunk right to the core and I felt myself change mid conversation.  Part way through this Trish told me to break out my old podcast gear (new setup has been nothing but tech issues) and just record an episode.  In this podcast you will hear a raw version of how me and trish talk all the time and I hope it connects with you even partially as much as it impacted me.  I'm so thankful for the amazing people in my life and so excited for everything to come. Also I just blindly hit record midway through the conversation and we didn't actually talk into the mics for the first 9 minutes so the audio quality will markedly increase 9 minutes into the convo lol. I hope everyone hears how much we genuinely love The Moon and the community it has created in this heart to heart and if it sounds like something you would enjoy come join us for an old school Trish's Asylum June 26 and follow the moon @themooyeg

VDC #252 Mike Dambra 3.0

Mike Dambra is one of my favourite people in comedy.  From the moment I met him he has always been there for me for anything I might need.  He has given me countless hours of advice, knowledge and guidance and has gone out of his way to help a young comic just trying to figure it out on his own when absolutely did not need to. As I got to know him more I realized that he has done this for an untold amount of comics in the past and so many comics owe a huge piece of their success to Mike's tutelage.  So I was a bit dismayed to watch my friend be hit with something you hope your friends will never experience.  Mike is an extremely proud man who would never ask for help but during the podcast I could hear in his voice that he was getting overwhelmed with all that life was throwing at him.  Mike has always done so much for comics and it is time to give back.  So we decided to do a fundraiser show May 10th at 7pm and the support we have already received is staggering. I always knew there was an army of people who love mike but to see it out in force has been touching to say the least. Please buy tickets on the comic strips website and if you want to support in any other way feel free to reach out to myself, Mike or the Comic Strip.  I love you all and I can't wait to see yall Sunday!

Oilers Uncensored #48 Quick Game 1 Recap!

The rest of the boys were busy so I decided to sit down solo and breakdown the magic that was game 1. I was live in the building and seeing the boys fly around in that first period made me feel things I can't even put to words.  But here's to trying! The Oilers are the greatest team to ever exist. Get on board! Also come see a comedy show sometime ;)
