Schmoedio Episode February 10, 2023

S.02 Ep.01- Dean Fleischer Camp, Baron Vaughn and Uncle Jake's Schmoement

10:38am - 11:34am

Schmoedio is back! We kick of season 2 with a special Oscars themed episode for Fundrive, our yearly week of fund-raising. We are trying to raise $20,000 for a new radio transmitter, you can donate at citr.ca/donate.

I interview Oscar nominated writer/director of "Marcel The Shell with Shoes On," Dean Fleischer-Camp about his writing process and he shares an impromptu high school theatre schmoement!

This month, Schmoedio will be partnering with the Vancouver's Just For Laughs comedy festival and I will be interviewing participating comedians starting with Baron Vaughn! Best known as Bud in Netflix’s hit series, Grace & Frankie (starring my favourite person ever to win an Oscar, Jane Fonda), Baron Vaughn has been a comedian this entire time! He's been featured on 2 Dope Queens, Conan, and co-created The New Negroes with Baron Vaughn & Open Mike Eagle for Comedy Central. He will be performing at the Biltmore Cabaret on February 17th, you can get your ticket at jflvancouver.com.

We wrap up with the Oscar for "Best Schmoement." I award it to my Uncle Jake who shares an embarrassing academic schmoement.
