Thanks to everyone involved in the record setting 2024 #RCGSPolarPlunge , plungers and donors alike.
It takes a village to run a podcast, and I am blessed to be surrounded by the excellent people in this particular @cangeo village as evidenced by the video below.

Thanks also to everyone who took up our challenge to “Be bold, go cold.” We had more plungers this year than ever before, representing Canada from the east coast to the west, and even the Arctic!

In 2022, I spoke with Joe Flaherty at length for my book about John Candy whom he helped discover for the Second City Toronto theatre. Pittsburgh born, wary of Chicago life, Joe felt that “Toronto was Heaven on Earth.”

One of the greatest bits of on SCTV is
5 Neat Guys. A take on the 1950's era vocal groups.

The brilliance here is usually unnoticed. Keep your eye on Joe Flaherty, he is playing a functioning alcoholic. 😂

So sad to hear about dear Joe. He was my TV dad and a true comedy hero. Always happy to tell any story about your favorite SCTV sketch, he was just the greatest guy. I will truly miss him and always be grateful to have known him. Rest in comedy, Joe. deadline.com/2024/04/joe-fl…

All my love to Joe Flaherty.

Canada has the lowest level of military support for Ukraine of any NATO ally with a military (Iceland lacks one) that is not the US, which has been held hostage by #MAGA agents of Kremlin influence for 15 months.

Even Ireland has done more — thanks to its EU @EU #EU Tweeting for Charity! membership.

Don’t believe it until the Kremlin denies it. Darth Putin
