In today’s bonus episode, Amanda sits down over some bubbly champagne with comedian, creator, and friend Dustin George as he asks her about creating Season 1 of The Liquid Courage Podcast and putting it out into the world. They chat why it took her so long to get started, what she’s learned after 30 episodes, and just how much booze she has left over in her apartment. A thoughtful, reflective celebration of the first 30 episodes, and an ode to the many more to come!
Thank you to everyone who listened, watched, and supported Season 1 – can’t wait to bring you Season 2! XO

In today’s episode, Amanda sits down over some Vespers with Bisexual actor, writer, director, producer, and activist Ashley Comeau (She The People, The Boyz, Odd Squad) to discuss her fascination with death, career-altering advice she got from Paul Feig, and what’s surprised her most about working in the entertainment industry. Ashley is a Second City mainstage alumnae, a member of the all-female, award-winning She The People cast, and performs internationally with her sketch and improv troupe Lusty Mannequins. You’ve seen her acting on screen in shows like The Boys, Odd Squad, and Degrassi, and she’s worked behind the scenes on shows like Chef In Your Ear, Haunted Hospital and Tallboyz. She also created the Mama City Improv Festival, an annual international improv comedy festival which she puts on in Cape Town, South Africa. You can see Ashley performing live online Girls Night In, a hilarious, internationally acclaimed virtual comedy show featuring female performers.

In today’s episode, Amanda sits down and get high (shout out legal weed!) with actor, writer, improvisor, producer Aurora Browne (Baroness Von Sketch Show, Newborns Moms, The Writer’s Block) to discuss how she knows when a set was hot, bits of Canadian history, and deciding Season 5 would be the final one for Baroness Von Sketch Show. You may know Aurora best from the award-winning series Baroness Von Sketch Show, which she created and stars in alongside Carolyn Taylor, Meredith MacNeil, and Jennifer Whalen. She is a Second City mainstage alum, and has won tons of awards for Acting, Writing, and Producing, including a Canadian Comedy Award and multiple Canadian Screen Awards. She stars in ABC’s comedy digital series Newborn Moms and the comedy series Writer’s Block, which she also writes for. You can also catch her in an upcoming episode of Odd Squad.

In today’s episode, Amanda sits down over some fire ciders with creator and body-positivity advocate Sean Taylor to discuss her experience on Netflix’s the Circle, S.A.D. lamps, and how to ethically enjoy reality TV. Sean is a creator and body-positivity advocate currently residing in New York City. She has worked in fashion as both a plus-size fashion blogger and social media manager, and now creates her own content across her various online platforms. Sean was also a contestant on Netflix’s hit reality competition show The Circle, and as a huge reality show fan herself, Amanda desperately tries to not fan girl to hard (and fails).
