Having fun at home...

This week I’m at home and hosting at Absolute Comedy in Toronto. This is one of my favorite clubs to perform at. Especially now that I am away so much it is so great to see some old and new friends.


The headliner this week is Evan Carter; a very funny man who has toured all over North America.











the middle spot on the show is Jeff Schouela (his first name is actually Jefferson, but he seems to hate it when I call him that). I’ve known Jeff for many years and was happy to see him on the shows this week. We stayed at the comedy condo in Ottawa last year and had a crazy time.







The Pro AM show on Wednesday night was a lot of fun. While those nights are a lot of work for the host as you are going up on stage in between all 8 comedians on the show, they are one of my favorites to watch. Seeing comics develop and evolve can be extremely rewarding. Years ago I produced an open mic comedy night in Toronto. There I got to witness many people trying stand up comedy for the first time. Now to see them starting to find their voice and look like they are actually having fun up there is a good feeling.
