Just in time for spooky season, we’re excited to introduce The Funny Thing About Ghosts, a new comedic paranormal podcast by Sarah Hillier (Second City, Transformer’s Bot Bots).
Every week, Sarah, once dubbed “Toronto’s answer to Amy Poehler”, invites comedians, improvisers and experts to share their personal paranormal encounters and run-ins with the supernatural. Sarah has always had a fascination with everything freaky: ghosts, aliens, monsters, and anything unexplained. Combining her enthusiasm for otherworldly stories with her energetic style of comedy, Sarah has a unique ability to find the humor in the hauntings. And so many people have a haunting to share!
The show is starting strong with incredible guests, like comedy legend Colin Mochrie (Who’s Line Is It Anyway?), TV host Ann Pornel (The Great Canadian Baking Show) and actor and comedian Andy Hull (What We Do In The Shadows).
If you want to hear personal ghost stories, the latest news about aliens, or tarot readings, all while laughing hysterically, The Funny Thing About Ghosts delivers all that and more.
New episodes every Tuesday. Find it on your favourite podcast apps!
