LATEST EPISODE 🔗

I spent this past week on the road with two dear, longtime friends as they needed some cheap labour for their comedy show they’re touring around Ontario. We improvised from Ottawa to Cornwall to Peterborough and back to Toronto. We stayed in Airbnbs, ate at questionable hours, didn’t sleep enough,…

Somehow with all that’s going on the pressure is off. I’m reminded not to be surprised. Dogs are going to bark, baker’s gonna bake and humans are going to treat each other terribly. What’s important to you? For me, for now, it’s blood. Tonight I made some fake blood. Two tablespoons of chocolate sy…
We have shot two episodes of a digital series I have created called Kensington Diner. We have four more to go. I based some of them on some of my favourite films: Cleo de Cinq a Sept, In Bruges, When Harry Met Sally, My Son the Fanatic. I steal from the greats — I do not just let myself be inspired…

1. The Gord Record

Now more than ever actors have to make their own opportunities. On the first episode we talk about how ACTRA members can make their own stuff and how best to navigate the ACTRA Toronto Co-op agreement. Cohosted by Gord Rand and Jason Bryden. This is a public episode. If you’d like to discuss th…
How to be a Person is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a paid subscriber. In Judith Kerr’s YA novel When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit (based on her escape from Nazi Germany as a child) she writes about how leaving her home and moving to Swit…
2009. A party at a house in Silver Lake. A horror movie director, named Tom, in a white button down shirt. A fat man with an architect’s eyewear that knew Jack Kerouac. The living room had a billiards table. The parlour had a wet bar, a wine closet and a stripper’s pole. I had made the hosts bucat…
Porn is no longer relegated to sex acts. If the definition of a porn compulsion is an inability to stop using it (and let’s face it, we’re not just passively watching porn) then porn is also the way we interact with social media, dating apps and the biggest streamer in the world, YouTube. If you’r…
