The Hall of Fame of Everything
Formerly known as the Canadian Comedy Hall of Fame Podcast. This is now ”The Hal of Fame of Everything.” Celebrating all things in Canadian achievement. We will still have comedians, actors and directors. Now we will sprinkle in athletes, business leaders, authors, black smiths and anyone else I think is cool. Doesn’t have to be Canadian either. Chad Brings Snacks audio also available on this feed The show has featured Lorne Michaels, Steph Tolev, Matt Friend, Santino Marella and many more! I hope you stay with us in this transition period as we launch the Hall of Fame of Everything! *we have zero intentions of starting an actual Hall of Fame.
