The Hello Calgary Podcast

The Collective bring this original play to life with their voice talents and character interpretations.  Enjoy the first half of the Originels.

Join members of the PIDLLP and LA Riots Crews as they come to form The Collective for the inaugural read through of the original script THE ORIGINELS.  This read through was performed on Thursday August 17, 2023 in the outdoor studio in the sweltering heat of summer.  The Prophet Esau, Easy Evan, Q Jr, and Sabrina Corinna voice all of the characters in this locally written and finally staged live in the Spring of 2024. 

The PIDLLP boys answer questions about Christmas. Half-cut on merriment and cheer, they share their fondest memories and favourite things about the season.

The PIDLLP crew are sampling wines in a similar but more civilized manner than last year's event, with dire consequences for the loser of this year's competition. Implementing a new wine scoring system, they attempt to blindly identify each sample to determine whether Easy Evan is the self-professed Wine Connoisseur he claims to be or if Peller's Cabernet Merlot will fool him again!  The stakes have never been higher, so come join us for this nail biter episode! (note: sips, clinking and the sounds of the actual sampling have been omitted and moved to the new archive, available in the future for our sponsors and patreon subscribers.)

The PIDLLP boys discuss the finer details of travel to Universal Studios Osaka in Japan, La Sagrada Familia in Barcelona Spain and Naramata BC in Canada. Enjoy the trip!

The conversation veers to movies, Greta Gerwig, and Bong Joon Ho's Parasite. Further discussion of travel includes road trips and places that we will likely never visit.

The PIDLLP team redubs the episode "Liquor and Bicker" as they each answer questions about the specifics of how they like to travel. Where do you typically travel to? What do you bring? What do you do? Tune in and comment with your travel tips.

The Prophet, Easy and Infectious have been oot and aboot, on tour, checking things out in Japan, Spain and British Columbia and have some stories, some wine and some saki to enjoy.

Joined by Mama Juana and his sons O-Bear and Isey-i, the prophet asks the question, "what do the past generations want to pass on to the future ones?" and conversely "what do the younger generation want to say to the older ones?".

The PILLP crew go on tour to Peter's farmhouse on the prairies to discuss writing. How do you go about writing a smash hit or an instant classic? What is the key to a successful original show? The new Chatter group deep dives this topic over coffees, both pretentious (ie tricolate) and practical (ie aero-press) and both gluten-free and gluten-full cookies, all while visiting with an old friend to the show, Pete-agogy (ie the man formerly known as Puffer Pete).
