This episode is STACKED with laughs and legendary energy !

Featuring Guest Host Janice Bannister of Laughter Zone 101 and the Hilarious Jackie Amsden & Nicole Anne. We dive into the joys of collaboration, hosting chaos, and how to build a comedy show from the ground up—without losing your mind (mostly).

The jokes and puns were flying, the laughter was nonstop, and somehow we still dropped real gems about building a show, what to do, what NOT to do, and why teamwork makes the dream work.

⚠️ Warning: May cause uncontrollable laughter, inspiration, and the sudden urge to start your own comedy show.

In this special Thanksgiving episode of the Apeshit Podcast, Lady J and special guest Comedian Travis Arthur break bread and pretzels with our American neighbour’s to celebrate the legends who redefined comedy. From classic stand-up icons like Fluffy to modern masters, we dive into what truly makes a comedian one of the GOATs of American humour.

Travis serves up his signature deep dish digs while unpacking the art, timing, and legacy of comedy’s greatest names. And just when things couldn’t get wilder, a special guest all the way from Merica “Canada’s Trump” Comedian Brody Shale stops by to join the Apeshit madness.

Put on your football jerseys, grab your bowl of salty nuts and get ready to laugh — this Thanksgiving, we’re going Apeshit in the name of American comedy.

This month we’re shaking things up with a powerful and inspiring conversation celebrating women, their voices, and their resilience. Joining as special co-host is the brilliant Jessica Pigeau, bringing her wit and insight to guide this one-of-a-kind episode.

We’re honored to welcome two incredible guests: Janice Bannister, a true legend of the BC comedy scene, and Rosie Grypma, winner of 2025 BC’S Funniest New Female Comic . Together, we dive into the intersection of comedy, women’s health, and self-awareness—where laughter meets life’s most important conversations.

Settle down, fellas—this isn’t a “burn your panties” episode, but rather a candid and enlightening look inside the woman’s mind. You might even walk away with wisdom that could save the life of a woman you love.

From highlighting trailblazing women in history to sharing deeply personal stories of how health challenges have shaped their journeys, our guests reveal how comedy can shine a light on the hard, uncomfortable topics we often shy away from.

This episode is heartfelt, hilarious, and not to be missed.
