We talked to stand-up comedian and actor, Dave Merheje! Jason met Dave many years ago because they both performed on a stand-up show together called The Most Races Show on Earth. After talking about that show, Dave talks about starting comedy in college in his home town in Windsor, his process for learning the structure of comedy, how he got his acting gigs in Ramy and Sometimes I Think About Dying and what filming those projects were like, what grinding it out early on taught him about finding himself to find his voice, and much more!

We got to talk to improviser, writer, and filmmaker, Anatasha Blakely! Anatasha and Jason dive right into a thrilling conversation which incidentally is one of our most inspiring we've ever had on the podcast. Anatasha talks about the artistic life she wants to achieve, the wisdom of Rick Rubin and Bruce Lee, the marriage of playfulness and joy with vulnerability in improv, being brave and taking chances in her performances, how she got into films like Predator despite being in a Mormon household, her film work, and much more.

We talk to Canada-based stand-up, Amy Bugg! Jason caught Amy while she was on the road in California at the Bergamot Comedy Fest! Amy and Jason have a fun chat about how Amy got started in comedy, doing jokes that weren't true to who she is before finding her voice, how comics can present their POV, her day job in accounting and some tax tips, work-life balance, what it took to produce her own special, and what her lifestyle on the road is like.
