  • Episode 42: Bebe Brunjes & Bring A Multifaceted Creator

    Send us Fan Mail

    Is there anything that Bebe Brunjes CAN'T DO? I don't think so! A force to be reckoned with, Bebe shares with us their trials, triumphs and tribulations as they navigate this Toronto industry as a non-binary ENTITY!! I apologize for all the frame changes, we were trying to dodge the sun (Henry's needs to invest in curtains so badlyyyyy) and we were talking so much, this interview was cut down A LOT but on the plus side I have a bunch of bonus material so stay tuned. Maybe it'll come out at a later date, WHO KNOWS!? I didn't get a chance to ask about working with Cher because the studio was closing, but we had to save something to talk about for next time! I hope you enjoy the interview! Tell me your thoughts in the comments below!

  • Episode 37: Andre Newell & The Canadian Industry

    Send us Fan Mail

    I APOLOGIZE for the audio quality of this podcast, we had technical difficulties... and we're living and learning! The information Andre shares in this episode I thought was invaluable and didn't want to drag him back into the studio to try to recreate the interview. So we did our best, about half way through the audio switches to what we're used to. HOWEVER in this episode we talk about the Canadian industry and how it compares to the US, we talk about the writing process, exercises actors can do AND of course the ICONIC Toronto Monologue Slam!!
    The Youtube channel Andre recommends you listen to is here:

  • Episode 36: TKAY & The Keys To Songwriting

    Send us Fan Mail

    TKAY's new song "So Close" is out now, wherever you listen to music!
    I loved this interview, a little different than my usual actors but there's so many similarities in the creative journey. TKAY was brave enough to share her art with the world and is inspiring others to do the same. We talk about writers block, taking inspired action, being gentle with yourself and so much more. Stay till the end of the interview to hear her song "So Close" I know I'll definitely be listening to this over and over!
