THE COMEDIANS
Jackie Kashian

She is in the eleventh year of her podcast The Dork Forest, where she talks with people about what they love to do, think about and collect. All things are dorky and it’s dork on dork dialog.

This year he plans on playing in every country on earth, plus the moon (if the spaceship he’s building works).This past January, Bryan’s second album opened at number one on iTunes comedy charts and remained there for several hours. A live performer since childhood, this joke of a man honed his stand up skills in the legendary Toronto comedy scene and has refined them on stages throughout the galaxy. ‘O’Gorman delivers gold right off the bat. Hilarious stand-up that is true to the form’ – West Australian *****(five stars)
