Welcome to the Season 1 Finale of the Draftful Dodger Podcast! In this raw, introspective, and completely unscripted stream of consciousness, your host Vova Zeeon dives deep into existential dread, the reality of the Toronto comedy scene, and what it truly means to leave a digital footprint.
From analyzing our future as "Homo Millenialis" uncovered by digital archaeologists to facing the notorious "glass ceiling" in stand-up comedy, Vova strips away the filters. Why take a break from stand-up? How does Kurt Vonnegut help pack existential dread into humor? And what happens when we are eventually buried under digital dust?
Stick around until the very end for a special announcement regarding Season 2, shifting the focus toward interviews with the funniest local comics, and a heavy outro featuring a legendary Siberian punk track.
