Was rad to have @strombo on my 100th episode of the #graventownpodcast - download it anywhere you do your podding. Here’s a snippet of our convo where he dug back to childhood days and how he never worried (even then) about fitting in.

Ok so pals- this show is flying out the door. In my backyard. Nepean area. Sunday Sept 28. 7 to 9 pm type deal. Me. Stephen Stanley. Melissa Payne. Chris Bennett. Probably Tom too. A ton of tickets have flown out the door just by word of mouth. So if you want in, now’s the time. ❤️

@stuntmanstu.bsky.social you’re good at bagel videos ❤️ (but next time tell Facebook to put that “click to watch video” somewhere else so it doesn’t make you look like Chef Boyardee)

Taking a break from my social media break to judge a @YukYuksOttawa show with two of the most famous and lovely dudes in Ottawa who I’m thankful to call pals - @dylanblackradio and @mikewoodottawa ❤️

Definitely one of the coolest photos I ever took of the Toronto waterfront. With my real journalism Canon rebel camera. Circa 2013.

Beautiful city at night, indeed. 🌆 ✨ 🌙

Go vote today, pals.
It takes minutes.
Your choice is your own.
But remember -
we are a Country.
Not someone else’s state.

Hey BSkies!

The vinyl for my latest album finally showed and man - it looks pretty dang alright. ❤️ Played every instrument and sang every note on this sucker and had my hands in all the cookie jars. It’s been a slow burner. I’m proud of it.

Great podcast convo between two verbose adult dudes who haven’t always been close friends - but who in their own unique ways - are dedicated to speaking the truth no matter the cost. Say what you will about comedians, but this will be a time where the real voices pierce through.
