Last night, I appeared on the CBC radio show, ‘The Debators.’ A show where comics debate hot topics and hot button issues with logic and a twist of humor. The show is hosted by funny man Steve Paterson. A good friend and one of the fastest ad-lib comics I know. (That’s right, I name drop too.)
The debate topic was Star Wars vs Lord of the Rings. Which one is the better franchise? I was pro Star Wars of course and my debating partner, comedian Ron Sparks, was pro Lord of the Rings. We both slaved through seconds of last minute prep to put forward our best arguments. In the end, it was very close, but I prevailed.
I won’t spoil it for you, but it was a great night!

Shout outs to my fellow debaters, Al Rae, Fred MacAulay, Irwin Barker, Jonny Harris, Mark Forward, Debra DiGiovanni, Roman Danylo, Rebecca Northan, Pete Zedlacher, and Erica Sigurdson. Well done everybody!
