Comedy and Montreal might not be synonymous if it wasn’t for Andy Nulman.

If Andy Nulman had not co-founded the Just For Laughs in the early 80s would we even know what comedy was? Would I have become friends with comedians and started this podcast if it wasn’t for Andy Nulman? Who’s to say.

As you may have noticed, this is not a recent episode. This is actually a re-broadcast of episode 62 way back from July 10, 2014. Our voices sound a little different because our microphones are a little crappier, but we’re still in the back of Grumpy’s (a bar which Andy shares a great little story about). This remains one of my favorite episodes. Even if it does kind of ruin “Spinal Tap”.

It was great to sit down with one of the legends of Montreal’s night life and comedy scene Andy Nulman and hopefully if you’re a new listener this will encourage you to take a trip into our 240+ episode back catalog and see if there are any other vintage episodes that catch your eye.

Enjoy the show!
