Episode 18 – The Rain City Chronicles Experience
Click here to listen to episode 18 of the People’s Program Project.
One of the things I’ve been working hard on recently is a storytelling night called Rain City Chronicles. We had our first event on December 1st at Little Mountain Studios. It was a great success. We’ve got nothing but really positive feedback and it seems like the city is ready for this kind of thing. We plan on doing it every season so the next one should be in March. This special episode of P3 features stories by CBC Radio 3‘s Grant Lawrence, who talked about his first experience with a pacific octopus…
Rain City Chronicles co-organizer and freelancer writer Karen Pinchin, who talked about her first time getting in a car with a stranger…
Sex guy and Manhussy‘s Cam MacLeod, who talks about the first time he realized girls go crazy when you’ve had sex with them…
Talent Time‘s Paul Anthony, who talks about his first parentless road trip…
And me. I told a story about the first time I sang with Belle and Sebastian on stage…
Music is by Basil Waugh…
I’ll try to have the second half of the evening out in podcast format by next week. In the meantime, enjoy!

Episode 16 – The Paul Anthony Experience
To listen to Episode 16 of the People’s Program Project, click here!
Paul Anthony is a actor, “singer” and host of Talent Time. Here are some links to things we talked about on this podcast episode…
- Here’s a video of the Candy Girls Cabaret, performed without irony, which is aok!
- When Paul is asking me if I seduced comedian Ryan LaChance, he’s referring to this article, which features an interview I did for Vice with our friend (and my favourite comedian) Phil Hanley.
- Here’s a video for the movie SUCK. There are quite a few big names in it but Paul plays a lead role. It apparently is getting a lot of press at the Toronto Film Festival.
- Fred and Sharon, who are real and genuine. I interviewed them for the Canadian Press. (Though I can’t find the article anywhere online.)
On a personal note, I’ve been busy making the most of the end of summer and working on some contracts and freelance and stuff. This week I’m starting a course so no more fun party times for me, or at least a scaled back version. I went to Harrison Hot Springs earlier this week for a last minute getaway. I would highly recommend it, especially if you’re from Vancouver. It’s so darn close. Lovely place, lovely people and the hot springs are magical. Except for the adult pool, in which couples who are lovingly floating each other around on their backs give anyone trying to reenact So You Think You Can Dance dirty looks. Here’s the view from our room:
There’s some exciting news I’d like to share but can’t just yet. So stay tuned.

Support Your Local Skate Shop
If you’re in Vancouver tomorrow, come down to AntiSocial to watch Dear & Yonder, a documentary about ladies who surf. It’s getting a lot of good buzz from all the lady blogs out there so I’m really excited to check it out. On a side note, I have to express my sincere love for Antisocial and its owners Michelle and Rick. I’ve never seen two business people put so much into a community. They are selfless. It gives me a warm feeling in my heart. Michelle was my go-to girl when I used to be the resident skateboard expert at the Canadian Press…she has supplied me with many a good quotes. She is also so committed to the community, it’s a real inspiration. And Rick is by far the most humble person I’ve ever met, considering his ridiculous talent. If I had a kid, these are the type of people I’d want to use as roles models. So yeah, big fan of Antisocial.
And I want to say a huge congratulation to Ali Liebert, Paul Anthony and Craig Anderson, who all have one or two films in the Toronto Film Festival. That’s a big deal. To celebrate, here’s a hot picture of Ali:
Speaking of Paul, he’s hosting Talent Time tonight. If you haven’t gone, go. It’s a bizarre experience.
Working on the podcast today. It’s actually going to be really good. Really funny.
