A truly Canadian scandal unfolds in a small town in BC 🇨🇦. A British doctor with a heroic backstory. He moved from Britain. He saved lives in Newfoundland and Labrador. Then he came to a comedy show in Summerland, British Columbia. What happened next…
Imagine surviving rural Newfoundland and Labrador…and being taken down by a school parking lot in Summerland!
I don’t write these jokes. Canada just hands me them, fully formed.
This Summerland tour date was one of my favourite shows this year. Beautiful place, delightful people. Cannot wait to return November 2026.

Valley Sands is home of the oldest bartender in New Brunswick - the legend that is Jack. 78 years old, loved serving delicious pints and formerly at the 3 Mile in Saint John before hitting the Sands in 2018. A genius, just like his colleague - the phenomenally awesome Debra who I’ve been friends with for 12 years since I first discovered a show here for Yuk Yuk’s in 2014! And fun fact: Jack is the uncle of Canadian comedy legend Justin Shaw! Go see them, they can count your winnings even while a Limey is bothering them!

I love beautful Bathurst for many reasons. One of the main ones is how delightfully refreshing it is to find two sex shops on one street in 2026! Much love to Sexy Puff and G&D. Lovely people and local entrepreneurs who should be embraced. #bathurst #newbrunswick #sexshop #sexshops #vhs

Meanwhile in England… one man has discovered the “only solution”. Some might say it sounds more like the final solution.

Behind the scenes of an incredible shoot with @jamesmullinger for his upcoming book about living with ADHD. We had so much fun in the studio bouncing around creative ideas and sharing lots of laughs.
So grateful to have the opportunity to learn, create, and experience shoots like this alongside @kellyslawson

I always wanted to be a fighter. So the legend that is Derek Clarke, founder of Fight League Atlantic, kindly offered to make that dream come true. This is what went down…

Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith jokes. Outtakes from upcoming 2026 stand up special filmed live in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada last month. This had just happened so I wrote the jokes that week, but these gags felt too topical and we all agreed that the special should feel timeless.
Hope you enjoy. Four punchlines packed into one minute. Filmed, edited and directed by Chris Kingston and Emma Lavender and their incredible team at Salt Cinematic @saltcinematic . Cinematography by Douglas Graham @douggraham_artist and Zan Rosborough @zanrosborough and Samantha Gardiner @samantha__gardiner .
