This week’s opponent is the mighty Glenn Wool. Glenn’s combination of intelligent political comedy and burly Canadian demeanor has been described as "hoser savant." In short he’s a comedy dynamo and I’ve been excited to get him to do the show since I started it back in 2017.

The guest judge is Paul Byrne, one of comedy’s best and most trusted directors. Paul is the only non-comedian ever to judge Chris Betts Versus and I’m delighted to have him.

Topics included:

One Night in Bangkok by Murrayhead (If you haven't heard it before I recommend listening to it here I sure wish I had)

Canadian legends the Tragically Hip

Hecklers that may or may not be sex offenders

and much more
