If Anthony is right and you people like a cranky Diane, you’re going to LOVE this podcast. I’d just been stood up by a Dragon and you’ll hear me roar about that.

We have two interviews, though, and I was perfectly nice to our guests. (It helps that they were prerecorded.) First up is Max Morrow, the star of Family Channel’s new Connor Undercover and a music aficionado. The show airs Fridays.

Our other guest is Sheri Elwood, creator of Call Me Fitz – one of my favourite Canadian shows ever, which airs Sundays on HBO Canada.

Mixed in there, Anthony and I chat about the new fall season (yes, including US shows), our thoughts on Lost Girl and Call Me Fitz, and the Murdoch Mysteries sale to China.

22MinutesXVIIAward-winning hit comedy series 22 Minutes with audience favorites Mark Critch, Gavin Crawford, Geri Hall and Cathy Jones premieres the 18th season Tuesday, September 21 at 8:30 pm on CBC Television. Unfair and unbalanced, the 22 Minutes team is on the scene uncovering stories the mainstream media won’t touch, calling politicians to task, and satirizing the hilarious state of contemporary news programming.

In the premiere show, Geri Hall gets up close and personal with ‘Talk Sex With Sue Johanson’ about why baby boomers are having more sex.

And Mark Critch and Gavin Crawford go door-to-door conducting a Conservative Party version of the census.
