  • Martha O'Neill, the Queen's purse
    2021/05/26

    Martha O’Neill’s wry, often edgy comedy is at odds with her laid-back, likeable stage presence; a combination which has made her an audience favourite wherever she performs.

    This Toronto native spent the first 10 years of her comedy career performing improv and sketch, but shifted her focus to stand-up 16 years ago and hasn’t looked back since.

    She performs regularly at the Absolute Comedy chain of clubs, at corporate/private events and has performed all over Canada, and as far away as Dublin and London. Television appearances include a stand-up special, “No Kidding” on iChannel, “The Mom Show” on the Slice Network and “Come Dine With Me Canada” on W Network. She is also a busy voice actor and former on-air personality at 105.9 The Region (serving York Region).

    Martha was nominated for a 2009 Canadian Comedy Award for “Best Stand- Up Newcomer”, has competed in both the 2010 and 2012 “World Series of Comedy” in Las Vegas and was a performer in the 2013 She Devil Comedy Festival in New York City.

    From 2013-2018, Martha was the Executive Producer of SheDot Festival (Toronto’s Festival of Funny Women) and continues to produce shows highlighting women in comedy.

    She recently released her first comedy album “Fine Big Girl”, available everywhere!

    We spoke about a number thing:

    • Like how she's a b-word on cider
    • Her dad calling her standup shows skitches
    • What's in the queens purse?
    • That she was a  HUGE fanilow
    • Her Irish mother-in-law
    • And so much more!

  • Kerri Louise: Mean Mommy
    2021/04/21

    This conversation runs the gamut. Kerri is a seasoned comedian, with a comedian husband, mother of 3. She doesn't encourage her kids to go into comedy at all.

    We chat about cancel culture. Her mom, beauty pageants, having a comedian as a husband, having kids later, wishing she had them earlier and how she wants her kids to have them young, but not too young, getting her son to pee in a cup, and so so much more! How it was once the norm for moms to smoke while pregnant. 

    Check out her books, her special, and album here:

    Kerri Louise is Mean Mommy! With her fearless and hilarious attitude toward modern motherhood, comic Kerri Louise tells all and never holds back. Truthful and funny, Mean Mommy attempts to balance her career in the comedy trenches and stay grounded while raising three boys. Kerri knows you don’t need another bossy book about motherhood like you didn’t need the baby wipe-warmer you bought for $29.95. Mean Mommy costs less and offers inspiration, encouragement and non-stop laughter that will last way longer than the warm feeling on your baby’s butt. What we really want is Mean Mommy’s frank, reassuring and uproarious approach to parenting. After all, Mean Mommies raise the best kids!
