James Mullinger returns with Episode 69 and it's the first ever episode recorded in the evening! Fresh from two sold-out shows at the Cochrane Comedy Festival, James reflects on the magic of small-town crowds, prairie hospitality, and the New Brunswickers that made his time in Alberta so special. He also dives into some big talking points from the world of comedy and sport: Bill Burr’s controversial trip to the Riyadh Comedy Festival and the conversation it’s sparked, his deep admiration for Lee Mack after rewatching all his stand-up specials, and the rare night when all three Toronto teams actually won - the Leafs, Raptors, and Blue Jays.

All this plus broken VHS players, armed robbers, hot yoga, heartfelt film reviews of The Smashing Machine and Magazine Dreams and a very special visit to Saint John Airport to meet the pilot and crew of Pascan Aviation's plane to Halifax. Funny, fiery, and full of heart, it's an intimate and brutally honest and proudly Canadian ramble.
