Egoslut's Ego

Hey Internet! So, if you follow any of this regularly or have seen any of my other sites, you know that in my offline world I’m a stand-up comic. I have been doing it off and on for over 20 years but only in the past year or two have I really taken it seriously. Comedy is a fantastic outlet, personally. I love everything about it; the writing, performing, promoting, comedians themselves. Everything!

I got into it when I was in college. I have been performing in some way ever since I was a kid. I started with music. Later, I got into theatre which led to me going to college to get my theatre degree. While I was there I met my friend Ian Boothby, a brilliantly funny guy. He was doing stand up regularly at Vancouver’s original comedy venue,  (continue reading…)

Hey look. I’m playing at a new place for the first time in a while. YAY. Comedy Off The Main is a venue that’s been around a long while and I’ve always wanted to play it and I finally got a call to come down. It’s a cool place that is run by some of my favourite comics in the city so I’m kind of psyched. See you all there.

Monday is Blue Monday. I’m hosting it again. This is my favourite show to do. It is our dirty comedy show and it is a fucking blast. It’s at Katacomb’s on St-Laurent. If you haven’t been come down. Jocko Alston is headlining with special guests Kwasi Thomas and EJ Brule. I haven’t seen Jocko since I last lived in Montreal.

So, I’m managing to stay true to my promises and give you number two in the video update series. Today, we talk a little bit about the plan for this update, but mostly we focus on 4 of the 5 Best picture noms for the 2009 Oscars. Also, we tried out the other webcam today to much better results and also upgraded the audio thanks to my soundboard and mic.

Hope you enjoy.

So, this was supposed to go up yesterday, but it ended up taking way longer to render than I thought it would. I promise I’ll get better at this. Here is what I am calling episode 2 of my videobog. I think we have the basics now to start going into a bit of a regular format. I have a couple of other podcasting ideas that are going to start being put up here, just to see what you guys think. If you like this stuff. tell your friends. Give me some tweets and plugs on your Facebook. Today’s episode is all about what is right with Slumdog Millionaire and what is wrong with Street Fighter 4. The new look is well under way, too. I think it’s going to be pretty cool.
