Shortly before beginning his Just for Laughs-sponsored cross-Canada tour ("The Magical Misery Tour"), Jeremy Hotz joins Paul Little to talk about the place he is in his career, the significance of the CBC show The Newsroom, his upcoming work on Call Me Fitz, and some interesting encounters he's had recently at Hollywood's The Laugh Factory.

Apologies for the abrupt beginning to the interview (we had some audio troubles), but hopefully you'll enjoy the 15 minutes or so remaining of our fun chat with Canada's most "miserable" comic.
