PLAY FUCKING LOUD w/ Lewis Baumander

We"re Totally (Not) OK ·

2018/04/21

Life is nuanced and contradictory, we make the rules up as we go. As actors, we collect tips, tricks and tools to help us slide in and out of the mindsets of different characters on a day-to-day basis, but there is no single method or format that works for all actors across the board. Becoming an actor means becoming a student of as many lifetimes as is possible in order to continually build up your mosaicked understanding of the human condition. We’ve learned just as much about ourselves as we have

Ep 11: Celebrity Cultures w/ Samita Nandy

We"re Totally (Not) OK ·

2018/03/30

In this episode, we learn (via sniffles) that T-Bitty is sick and that if Cales were to study a celebrity, she would place her in a test-tube and probably forget to feed her like the aloe plant sitting shrivelled on her window sill. Thankfully, Tanya and Caleigh got to sit down with Samita Nandy, who runs the Centre for Media and Celebrity studies, to chat about the study of celebrity cultures and how celebrities themselves can be understood as texts and systems of signs that carry meaning, shaped

Ep 10: Laughing at Death w/ Aphiraa

We"re Totally (Not) OK ·

2018/03/03

Let’s talk about heads, baby. Let’s talk about you and me. Let’s talk about how many times we’ve knocked our brains around. Real talk: today’s guest is seriously cool and she tells a serious story and we make fun of life and art and how she almost died. If you’re into dark humour, beautiful art, and people who’ve been through more incredible experiences than could ever fit into this podcast, you’re going to fall in love with Aphiraa. She’s a visual artist, a magnificent soul, and she’s saving the

2018/02/18

Fellow unicorn-writer-director, Angela Cavallin, joins us in the studio (shout out to those who saw her at our live show for The Sonar Network launch event at Bad Dog Theatre in Toronto). We chat about how her initial journey into the entertainment industry as an actor has come to shape her writing and directing skills and how she loves writing assholes and will probably be an asshole herself in her next table reading by forcing her actors to read to the tempo of a metronome. She also shares her joy

Ep 8: S.M.A.R.T. Art w/ Michelle Leduc Catlin

2018/01/07

There’s no better interview to kick the new year off than our conversation with Michelle Leduc Catlin, an artist who has reinvented her artistic style and skill set throughout her many becomings - as a broadcaster, a host, an actor, a filmmaker and an all-around beautiful human being. She shares how she strives to maintain integrity within her own moral values while necessarily finding her artistic niche. She created her own path by creating her own work, which led her to a much deeper, more

People learn through Story. In this episode, Caleigh swaps personal stories with Chelsea Ricchio, Communications Manager for Healthy Minds Canada.

Times are tough, especially now. But that's not uncharacteristic of our world, so we're keeping our message general in this extra tidbit of a mini episode for you. Here's that speech Caleigh promised to deliver in audio version - an exit lecture form one of her favourite university professors, Sharon Sliwinski, nearing the end of her academic studies. It's an adaptation of a commencement address given by Mark Danner at Berkeley in 2005. Caleigh reads it when times are tough, or when life's

We"re Totally (Not) OK ·

2017/01/27

One day we'll speak about our mental health with the same ease as our physical health. In fact, we'll realize its importance just might outweigh that of the latter. We hope. We dream. We make film festivals about it. Well... Geoff does. In this special #BellLetsTalk episode, Tanya & Cales speak with Geoff Pevere, one of the masterminds behind the Rendezvous With Madness Film Festival - a fest that focuses purely on movies that touch on aspects of mental health.

Cales sits down to chat with Toronto comedian Kirsten Rasmussen about life behind the curtain of comedy, how it can be both an outlet and succubus, and how to balance your boundaries and shield yourself from the pitfalls of "ugly places".
