Red Alert! All Hands on Deck! We have our first comedian!!!! This has been something I have been desperately wanting since way before anyone even knew I was starting a podcast. And what a comedian it is, Lars Callieou is a local Edmonton Comedian that has been in the game since the early 2000's, he has appeared at the Just for Laughs Festival in Montréal, has a 1-Hour Comedy Special currently airing on The Comedy Network and has been overseas to entertain the troops 5 times. He can be heard on CBC's Laugh Out Loud, The Debaters and on Sirius/XM. He's one of only four Canadians in history to make the Finals of both the San Francisco AND Seattle International Comedy Competitions. I have dreamed of being able to talk comedy with an actual comedian for years and Lars was so generous and indulged me at every turn with the type of genuine and thoughtful answers that were better than I could have even hoped for! Lars is one of the hardest workers I have ever met while also managing to always be there to help anyone willing to put in the work. This combination is something I find absolutely inspiring and hope to emulate myself. Please follow lars at @extralars and contact him to entertain at any functions either in person or online, you would be hard pressed to find a more dependable and hilarious guy! And to top it all off he is a huge Oilers fan! Here's to hoping this wasn't all just a fever dream!
