9to5.cc Podcasts: Including Go Plug Yourself (GPYS) & 9to5 Entertainment System (9ES)

The Montreal podcast that asks Jordan Robson-Cramer (Phonopolis) & Jason Grimmer (Commotion Theater): “How would you define success?” (Asked by Sergio da Silva back in episode 199).

To kick things off in the “post-Walter era” (which I think is kind of our Attitude Era, which makes this our Ruthless Aggression Era) we have not one, but two guests for you: Jordan Robson-Cramer and Jason Grimmer!

Jordan is the co-owner of one of Montreal’s historic record stores Phonopolis and Jason Grimmer is on the forefront of our city’s cutting edge improv scene.

You may have heard that Phonopolis (among other record stores) is currently finding themselves in a very absurd situation where they are staring down a $2,900 fine for staying open late last year during Record Store Day. While Mayor Valérie Plante has said the city will be extending weekend hours for record stores, Phonopolis and the other businesses involved are still trying to get the fines dropped altogether.

Towards the end of this episode, Jordan asks our listeners to continue to shop at local record stores and to consider putting your out of town friends up in your home instead of AirBnBs.

Meanwhile, Jason Grimmer (who works part time at a record store as well, in his case Cheap Thrills) has recently started hosting monthly improv shows over at Mainline Theater under the banner of “Commotion Theater” and his ongoing series “Night Drive” continues next Saturday, Feb 29 at Le P’tit Impro.

Stepping in for the co-hosting duties on this episode is Lawrence Corber, who is a very busy man who you should probably follow on Facebook.

A live special edition of Go Plug Yourself featuring Inés Anaya, Lawrence Corber, Chris Venditto and musical guests Sweetheart Grip! Everyone came out to Turbo Haüs to give my beloved co-host Walter J. Lyng a fitting sendoff as he steps away from the full time co-host of this wonderful podcast.

A massive thank you to everyone who came out and of course to everyone who made this 200th episode special.

Walter is a wonderful friend, co-host, comedian and an amazing dad. Chris, if you’re reading this, just try to say something bad about this blurb I dare you.

We love you all, see you soon for episode 201.

The post 9ES200: But, why appeared first on 9to5 (dot cc).

The Montreal podcast that asks Montreal improviser Dimitri Kyres: In what way are you trying to make yourself better? (Courtesy of Ben Miner in episode 197)

Dimitri Kyres is a Level 6 Improv Master. He knows things about improv that haven’t even been invented yet. He can break down improvisational structures and put them back together with his goddamned eyes closed.

No seriously, he’s really very good at being very funny. One need only look to a string of sold out performances of the hit improv cop comedy Precinct at Montreal Fringe that he was a part of. “But I missed that show” I hear your voice in my head complaining, well good news: there are still a lot of ways to see Dimitri being funny every single month over at Montreal Improv (like Friday Night Main Event, Sunday Sunday Improv and he’s got even more exciting projects in the pipeline.

We talk comedy, making people laugh and maybe, just maybe plant the seeds of an upcoming collision of worlds where stand up and improv comedy will collide!

Special thanks to Mr. Christopher Venditto for stepping in as co-host this episode and be sure to check out the Second Edition (Second Season?) of Word Fight, starting back up at Café Cleopatra on January 18th.

Be sure to stay tuned to all the shows Dimitri is a part of over at Montreal Improv and stay even more tuned for some of the other exciting projects this creative cat has in the bag.

The post 9ES Year In Review 2019 appeared first on 9to5 (dot cc).

The only end of year podcast extravaganza that is worth a damn is back! The Go Plug Yourself Shit Show returns to offer 6 people basically just yelling at each other for 2 hours! Listen as Walter infects my brain and I stop being able to correctly pronounce Inés’ name, hear me very nearly divulge my wifi password on the podcast, marvel as Tyler Lemco gives us a sneak peak into the life of luxury he enjoys as a millionaire Youtube star and enjoy Chris Venditto occasionally screaming references to Godfather.

♫It’s the most… wonderful… podcast… of the year!♪

Be sure to check out Tyler Lemco, Walter J. Lyng, Inés Anaya and Chris Venditto whenever you get the chance to see any of them on stage and be sure to follow Sarah and my dog Zelda on Instagram: @zelda_cav

Be sure to check out all of these talents in the coming new year and as always subscribe and tell your friends about the show.
