Mickey Acorn on his songwriting process, stand-up comedy and the meaning of life

Mickey Acorn is an actor, comedian, songwriter, musician, writer, teacher . . . the list goes on. Since we acted together at UPEI in the late 90's, I've been admiring his work from far away (he's been living in Japan for 18 years). I don't think I've laughed this much in any other episode. We talked about his method of "wri-cording" (writing music while recording it), what lessons you learn on stage and what it means to be an artist. You can find Mickey online on Tiktok, YouTube, and probably many other places.Producer, editor and host: Drea MacdonaldPodcast theme song - "If you let it" by Drea Macdonald produced by Adam Gallant Podcast logo/artwork by BirdmouseFollow the Podcast on InstagramTip me on Ko-fi to help support this podcast!
