We are due for a laugh- a chance to see things a little differently, maybe add a little humour to help us feel alive again. Laughter is great medicine.

Canadian talent Gerry Dee is at the mic.

This award winning stand up comedian was the star and co-creator of the CBC sitcom Mr. Dee for 8 successful seasons. He is an accomplished writer with a national bestselling book called “Teaching- It's Harder Than It Looks” and the host of family fued Canada. His accolades run deep, from Just For Laughs festivals to the Comedy Network and so much more. 

This former high school teacher and married father of 3 was on a very successful stand up tour when COVID hit bringing him back home and into isolation. Its really tough to be put on the spot and told to "be funny" ( trust me- its happened to me on so many occasions when I host event- and it takes talent- one that I dont have). Gerry talks about his path into the entertainment industry, parenting, goal setting, courage, roadblocks, teaching, schoolwork, sports, kids and sports and the list goes on. He was so much fun to talk with and I hope you can simply sit back and relax with this one.
