This was a bucket list type interview for me and I think it shows. I did my best to keep my cool but a certain element of fandom comes through. From BrentButt.com: Brent Butt has long been considered one of the funniest people in Canada, with a career in stand-up comedy that stretches into five decades, including numerous appearances at major festivals in multiple countries and being voted Best Male Stand-Up in Canada by his peers in the profession. He also created and starred in two successful sitcoms – CORNER GAS and HICCUPS. When you add in two theatrical comedy films (NO CLUE, CORNER GAS: THE MOVIE) and four seasons of an animated TV spinoff, it may seem surprising that Brent’s new venture has taken a rather dark turn. THE DARK TURN… Brent has written his debut novel – an intense, gritty psychological thriller called HUGE (from Doubleday Canada – Oct. 2023). The story follows three comedians on a rough run of shows through a remote stretch of rural countryside, as their priorities shift from getting laughs to fighting for their lives.
