More about me
I was host/producer of Canadaland's critically-acclaimed arts & culture show, The Imposter, and the limited series We Are not the Virus, which was selected as one of Apple Podcasts' Best of 2020. I was series producer for Operation Morning Light, a 2022 Webby and International Documentary Association (IDA) nominated series about a Cold War nuclear satellite that crashed in Canada's Arctic, and its aftermath. My audio work has appeared on BBC Radio, McSweeney's, and Radiotopia's The Heart, among others. I did a provocation at the 2018 Third Coast International Audio Festival on why podcasts aren't funny (which was a major issue at the time).
