About Gent's Talk:
The Gent's Talk series, powered by Gent's Post and presented by BULOVA Canada is an episodic podcast/video style conversation with the leading gents and rising stars of industry. Guests on the show thus far include Russell Peters, Jonathan Osorio, Director X, JP Saxe, Wes Hall, Karl Wolf, Shan Boodram, Dom Gabriel, Nick Bateman, Justin Wu and many more. The conversations range from career, mental health, family, relationships, business, and everything in between. Even more excitingly, Gent's Talk is the first ever podcast in video format to be featured on all Air Canada domestic/international flights. Our intention is to have a raw and unfiltered conversation with our guests about their lives, how they achieved their successes, lessons learned along the way, and the challenges of climbing that mountain.
About Kurtis Conner:
Kurtis Conner, who is well-known for his relatable yet absurd style of humour and witty social commentary, started his career by studying comedy writing and performance in Toronto, before going on to gain widespread popularity with his Vine sketches. He later took his content to YouTube, where his videos regularly hit the Top 10 trending page and over the years, he has amassed over 4.5 million subscribers.
In 2016, Conner released a stand-up album titled Cuppla Jokes, which made it to number six on the Billboard Comedy Chart and number one on iTunes. Throughout his career, the 29-year-old has toured all across the world; selling out theatres from North America all the way to Australia & New Zealand. Conner just recorded his debut comedy special with two back-to-back sold out shows at The Danforth Music Hall in his hometown of Toronto, Canada. The special is set to release late 2023.
