So I accepted an invitation to appear on the 10ish Podcast's 250th Live Episode and thought I would share it with you. The theme of the episode was remembrance of Highlights include my remembrance of Brandon Coffman, one of the original hosts who we sadly lost to cancer a few weeks before the death of my father. In the first ...

Hey everybody, just letting you know I'm looking to have the next episode up TODAY. I've just been under the weather for the last week and luckily recorded right before it all started.
I've decided to provide a few teases to lube your ear holes.
First, this episode will take place in Canada; land of my birth an...
Who would have thought learning about an intense level of corporate irresponsibility, bloodshed and horror would be so fun. I thank you all for helping make our longest episode ever possible.
Sincerely, if you like this show enough to help assist it financially, I want you to thank yourself. We are all in this togethe...
What I’m about to tell you in this episode will sound like nonsense – shocking, highly flammable nonsense – unless you’re from California
On this episode: we’ll learn all about what it’s like to work at what I’m hoping is the worst utility company anywhere in the Americas, we’ll take a look at...

You won't know what you're looking at, and that's fine. It's a return to form. It's progress. It's a new episode, being compiled and edited on a laptop that till all-too-soon knew the cool touch of death, but that you all helped fix it.
Cause and effect: no computer means no episodes, and without you, that's exactly w...
As a tease, I will be mentioning the 401 in the next episode. If you don't know it, here in Ontario we have the 400 series of highways, and the 401 is the largest of them all. Largest of all highways in general. It is considered the longest, busiest and deadliest highway in the world - sorry LA drivers, but it's true.

We’re going back to Italy! But it’ll be hard to enjoy all the flavours and sites with your eyes and tongue swelling out of your head!
On today’s episode: we’ll learn all about Russia’s almost cartoonish fascination with murder, we’ll learn the best way to get that full-body boil-look, and we’ll learn all t...

What hops downstairs, alone or in pairs, enough to block out the sun? Nothing good, I promise. I hope you brought your appetite for destruction – because this episode is going to bug you.
On this episode: you’ll learn the horror of insect biomass, we’ll learn that some problems can only be solved with a knife and ...

Oddly, once you hear it you will see how awful and despiriting a time the people in our next episode had it. It will definitely make you feel a little better about your own situation for a bit. As a teaser, our story begins in the Old Testament with the 10 plagues of Egypt, and it just gets weird from there. And on topic, let...
2023-12-29 19:18:48 +0000 UTC View PostI can't thank you enough for your support during this time. It wasn't the easiest death, and I was with him every moment of the journey – and it has affected me deeply. I was already in a poor mental headspace with personal concerns, and his passing really just laid it all bare. Buuuut, his passing also changed the way I th...

It is with the deepest sadness and thankfulness for the life he shared that I tell you that today I lost my father, Eugene Choma. He fled the Russian Army from his homeland in Ukraine to lead a life of hardship and adventure and profound love in Canada. The story of his life is too hard to capture here and my heart is too bro...

Just need a reliable and trust-worthy printer and away we go.
2023-12-06 17:00:20 +0000 UTC View PostIt’s been a while since we did an episode with such cartoonish levels of bloodshed and awful behaviour. No joke. This is next level inhumane nonsense here, folks.

I wanted to do the whole DIY Chewbacca but I would have died of dehydration 20 mins into it. Work being work, what I did end up doing was taping giant google eyes over my own and entertaining children at the door. My version of entertaining is open to scrutiny.
Imagine going to the door and being greeted by a google-e...
You’ve flown on planes that were late. You’ve flown on planes that experienced turbulence. You’ve even flown on planes with unruly passengers, but I’m willing to be you’ve never flown on a plane that melted.

Hey everybody, I wanted to apologize for the slow release of the next episode. I kind of got distracted, but I will avenge the timeline. Off topic, did anyone actually receive their prison shivs? This message took five minutes to type. Signing off for now.

Poor Bob got cut pretty bad and needed a little surgery the other night, which if you've spent 8+ hours sitting in a hospital - human or animal - you know it's a real time-suck. I may be a behind on the next episode. BUT you should also know that the next Patreon-only episode will touch on a side disaster or two, effectively ...
2023-10-20 13:58:26 +0000 UTC View PostA lot of strange circumstances all had to fall into line to make this possible - same way as I explain disasters as being a strange set of circumstances falling into place at the right time to create something awful - this worked to create something hilarious. PLUS, I got to take a public swing at the Jays, who treat playoff ...

I'll explain this all more, but that is a former Vice President of Marketing for Disney Canada who wore a homemade sandwich board and the actual digital billboard about eight stories tall. I worked with Greg as a client for over a decade and now he's hocking my podcast in the city square like a minstrel of old. Actually, if y...

This Thursday afternoon, in the heart of Toronto's Yonge/Dundas Square, the President of Disney Canada will be wearing a billboard of the attached image for the podcast, and we'll have one of the giant digital billboards as well.

That's right, the shivs are in the mail! But I'm not one to gloss on about what a strange statement that was, so instead I will share a tale from my past that includes Canada Post, the police, the wrong kind of drugs and a party gone weird.
At my very first professional job, we did marketing, and after two-and-a-half y...
By popular demand, we are staying in the Depression Era and doubling down on the disaster. We’ve done blended and mixed disasters before, but welcome to our very first two-fer plane and elevator episode.

With everything shrinkflationing out of control and the average Joe getting squeezed at every turn, let me do my part by offering my Patreons actual more for their dollar. Doomsday on Patreon gives you new episodes quicker and add-free, but longer! By my math, the next episode of Doomsday wil...

The Bad News
As most of you must know by now, my mental health ebbs and wanes like a reed in the wind depending on the circumstances, which have been bad most of the year. I'm sure at least half the population can easily relate. The reason I am so often late to deliver new episodes is because I take on...
That's right - this new prison episode has got me in a mood and I'm workshopping homemade weapons for fun. All yours for the asking. I also wanted to let you know I've been thinking of making Patreon episodes longer than regular episodes, to get more of the tangential trivia and interesting tidbits that don't make the regular...
