How often does one get to sit down and chat with a PHD candidate/Stand up comedian?! Well last Tuesday was my lucky day because I got to chat with my good friend Jules Balluffi and it was a hell of a time. We sat down at the world famous Dukes Diner on the UofA campus and went through her entire Journey from the mean streets of Manhattan, to New Jersey, all the way up to Mcgill, the maritimes and finally Alberta to finish out her schooling. This academic journey was fascinating and inspiring and could have been a whole podcast in itself but we also had to cover Jules' journey into the world of stand up comedy including the classes that got her started and also the passion that has kept her coming back! It's nice to see that the Stand up bug can bite such clearly rational and sane person like Jules because I was starting to think only the craziest of us could get addicted to such a rollercoaster of an endeavour!
Give Jules a follow on instagram @julesballuffi and come see her do stand up all over the city!
