Happy 57th episode to people whose favourite number is 57! This one is JUST FOR YOU!

In this episode of "PodGis", Val discusses (at great length) the number 57, her upcoming headlining week of shows at JFL Toronto (tickets available online Friday June 17!), then talks about her charming brother and the ways in which he laughs at her; she then tells a story about an unconfident magician, about magicians in general, and about invoice quality and how she's trying to step her game up. HAPPY FIFTY SEVEN! 

OH, OKAY!

HELLO MY LOVELIES!!!! AL VAL HAS RETURNED AND "PODGIS" IS BACK!

Oh boy, so much to catch y'all up on! Val rips right into it, describing her new setup; proposing a new catchphrase for all trans people (across the entire spectrum!); a new term for her favourite colour; talking about her recent big move across town; and speaks at length about her recent experience filming season 3 of "Drag Heals" for OutTV. As always, this episode is full of life, encouragement, and introspection!

HELLO HELLO PAT PAT PAT!

In this fun and introspective episode (were you expecting anything less??) Val talks bindle sacks, the relevance of clowns, how people talked in the 1920's, and a wide variety of philosophical reflections regarding meaninglessness, nihilism, and the movie "Everything Everywhere All At Once". Enjoy!!

After a brief hiatus, Val is back! In this one, she freeforms about recently losing her credit card because of silly pocket standards for women's clothing; funny sound bites with her Roommate & Friend; a tale about being far too stoned on edibles at the club; and some closing thoughts on neurodivergence, human nature and social media.

Have a good week, ya jackals!

Hey hey hey happy 'Trans Day of Visibility'! Get your WOBBLE BOBBLE on and have a super visible day, trans friends!

In this fun, frolicking episode Val begins by offering some positive, optimistic thoughts on Trans Day of Visibility (as well as some observations on her own hormonal and... physical... progress). She then dives into two of the more ridiculous takes she's observed online in regards to the Will Smith/Chris Rock "Oscars slap" incident (I know, I know...), after which she describes her new favourite Twitter account @ClubPhotos_, then ends on some parting thoughts about teaching improv to children.

Have a listen to "PodGis" and don't go getting forgot! Even if you find yourself clanking a metal bucket on your head, sometimes you gotta order a gabagool from T-Dov, give it a YBWC shrug, and say to yourself "Wobble Bobble"! 'Cuz that's life, baby! Wobble Bobble! 

Hello, PodGis listeners! Check out this episode, why dontcha??

In this episode, Val starts out joking about the "UNCUT JAHHHMZ" valley girl, and the idea of being one's 'muse'; after which, she tells you the full details of a hilarious Instagram video that made her laugh so hard she cried on the couch and got a headache. Finally, for the second half of this episode of "PodGis", Val digs pretty deep and personal, reflecting on a painful recent 'roast battle' experience, and reflecting on how she represents herself and her community onstage.

This is a true yin-yang, self-reflective episode of weighing the positives and negatives! In this one, Val talks about her gag reflex; about dress codes in standup; the cesspool of the comments section; her definition of modern day saintliness in the social media era; the time a woman wrote and performed a dating request to Val in song; and the previous night's misadventures with mentally unhinged folks in the city.

Oh no! Al Val is sick with Covid :( But that won't stop her joking and hanging out with you! It does, however, make her sound hella raspy. It is what it be!

In this one, Val talks about sad balloons; how her high school experience differs significantly from modern media's portrayal of being that age; the first time she got drunk; her life principle about "Positive Entropy"; and closes on an anecdote that illustrates how set in her ways Al Val can be. When you like something you like it, and YOU like PodGis!

*I apologize for the hollow sound; it was a mistake I won't make again. The episode is still a fun one! :)*

In this episode, Al Val discusses her gift-giving philosophy, and how she is trying to be a better person; a Will Smith-inspired bit of life advice in regards to taking chances and making proactive decisions; a story about the highs and lows of being in the public eye; fish procreation; bank accounts that are there for no reason; and then a closing exploration of the Canadian Trucker Convoy as it relates to Captain America.

This is the lugubrious episode.

Al Val ENDURES a crappy mood and delivers a shorter podcast with observations on the latest "Spiderman" movie, feeling lugubrious, micropenises and micropenis science, liars abound online, and a brief observation on Michael Cain and Forrest Gump.

We'll be back next week with more gusto! I promise!
