Brent invites comedian, writer, and multi-pod podcaster ALICIA TOBIN to the Gameroom Studio, high atop Sparrow Media Towers, to discuss superstitions, extreme weather, "Hank The Shape", her new podcast and projects, and the hilarious joys of chronic pain!

Brent Butt plops himself across the table from a super interesting and creative dude, by the name of Paul Bae.  Paul is a former stand-up comedian, who pretty much left the game to pursue audio drama, and his podcast projects have garnered huge international success, and are being developed for television.  Funny, intelligent, creative... he's one fun and engaging fella to chat with.

After another healthy (long) hiatus (busy with production on Corner Gas Animated Season 2) Brent Butt returns to The Buttpod, and sits down with his very special guest, and old friend, Kevin McDonald, to discuss The Kids in The Hall, Canadian vs US comedy, first forays into showbiz, and the secret ability of cows... among many, many other things.

After a stupidly lengthy hiatus (currently delivering Corner Gas Animated Season 2) Brent welcomes tremendously talented comedian, and all around good egg, DJ Demers to the hallowed heights of Sparrow Media Towers, to discuss his time on 'America's got Talent', Just For Laughs, Canadian vs American showbiz, and 'The Golden Triangle'...(whatever the hell that is!)  

Brent parks his carcass across from comedian and best selling author Charlie Demers, to discuss labour relations, family relations, animation, and crime fiction.  Among many, many other things. 

Brent welcomes comedian extraordinaire and podcast pioneer GRAHAM CLARK to the 67th floor of Sparrow Media Towers, to discuss comedy, journalism, being a young detective in Calgary, and how (and why) somebody might go about painting pictures using nothing but the beard on their face.  Loads of laughs.  Loads of fun.

Brent sits down with his Corner Gas co-star Fred Ewanuick (Hank Yarbo) to discuss his role on the show, what he thinks of the new animated version, what TV shows he loved as a kid, how to make beer, and whether or not cross-checking to the windpipe is officially allowed in lacrosse.

At long last, episode 6 gets launched into the world.  A lotta laughs this week, with special guest PHIL HANLEY, in from NYC to do a run of west coast comedy clubs.  We discuss dyslexia, mutiny, hiding from angry passengers on a cruise ship, and all that kind of jazz.  Big laughs and big fun.

Comedian, improviser, and award winning comic book writer IAN BOOTHBY makes his way up to the 67th floor of Sparrow Media Towers to set Brent straight on about 850 different topics, including Elvis' favourite superhero, how high were the Brady Bunch writers, and breaking into CBC to covertly write comedy sketches.  Whole lotta laughs!!!

Brent sits down with DAVE SHUMKA - one half of the creative team behind Canada's award winning podcast, "Stop Podcasting Yourself", to discuss the origins or rock, the words that make up words, titmouses (titmice???) and the super sexy 1920s.

Hilarious comedian and writer ERICA SIGURDSON drops by Sparrow Media Towers to chat with Brent about sleeping in a tree, disarming a border guard, and performing stand-up during rocket attacks in Afghanistan.  You know... typical everyday stuff we can all relate to.  ENJOY!!!

Comedian and personable fellow, Ivan Decker, parks his carcass across the table from Brent to discuss dinosaurs, superheroes, and getting literally, actually booed offstage.  THE JOYS OF SHOWBIZ!!!  Please enjoy.

Comedian Brent Butt sits down to host the VERY FIRST EPISODE of his new podcast, THE BUTTPOD.  His inaugural guest is musician/composer/rockstar Craig Northey from The Odds, as they discuss making music, scoring for TV and film, how many bar fights you have to get into before you're considered a badass, and so very much more.

We're calling this "Episode ZERO" because it's not an official episode. It was a technical test run, with my good buddy, and fellow stand-up, Jamie Hutchinson.  Turned out we had enough fun and enough laughs to say "what the hell", might at well put it up for the world to hear, as an INTRODUCTION TO... THE BUTTPOD.  Enjoy.
