I’m proud to say that today, thanks largely to recently being a guest on Stop Podcasting Yourself, that on a Google Search of “Ben Mills” both this website and the website where you can download my comedy album rank higher then the website belonging to former X-factor contestant British musician Ben Mills.
So You Think You Can Think? Sunday Night Pub Quiz at the Loose Cannon (Halifax) This was the name of the pub trivia night that Dylan Rhymer and myself started in Halifax in January 2009. It still runs today at the only venue it’s ever known: the Loose Cannon at 1566 Argyle Street. Dylan had [...]
I originally had the time listed wrong. The show starts at 8pm September 24 at the Biltmore in Vancouver.
So many people in Vancouver are acting like they invented the sports riot just because it’s happened there twice in fifteen years. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised as this is the same city that took credit for the inventing the attractive female buttocks when Lulu Lemon opened shop. If Vancouver is only rioting about hockey every decade and a half then it’s doing better then a lot of other places on the globe.

It in the latter half of the Prairies I read some entertainment listings that informed me Toots and the Maytals would be playing in Toronto’s Phoenix roughly around the time that I’d be there.

When I called the Fredericton hostel to make a reservation for a room a surly man on the other end of the line simply asked my name, snorted “Yeah, okay” and hung up. This was the least amount of information I’d ever had to give to secure accommodations and it made me a uneasy. I [...]
