Name 3 things we’ve gotta do when we visit Newfoundland & Labrador:
1. Visit Trinity Bay
2. See some local bands (The Once, Mark Bragg, The Novaks, Pathological Lovers, Sean Panting, Hey Rosetta!, Gramercy Riffs to name a few)
3. Make out with someone in a car on signal hill
What makes Newfoundland & Labrador such a special place on earth for you?
The people. It’s a different breed out there. Newfoundland is the only place where I always feel like I am the least funny guy in the room.

As a half-breed Newfie I rejoice in your Newfie-ness. Your portrayal of your Newfoundland accent sounds very Irish which goes with the many Irish immigrants of the time.You play the dramatic part so well nobody would guess you were such a fantastic stand up comic. Just watched you last night on Comedy New and laughed me guts out. You deserve awards, acclaim and lotsa money for what you do to entertain the masses.
