Simon Peacock & Wassim El-Mounzer (ACTRA Montreal Awards) – GPYS 337

from Go Plug Yourself - Montreal - 9to5 (dot cc)

The Montreal podcast that asks Simon Peacock & Wassim El-Mounzer: “What is your ‘seed’ song for streaming music?” That question was asked back in episode 336 by Tom Murphy. On this week’s episode we’re joined by the President of ACTRA Montreal Simon Peacock and the host of this year’s ACTRA Awards in Montreal Wassim El-Mounzer. Simon and Wassim talk about this year’s ACTRA Awards in Montreal, Canadian content, Degrassi and so much more. We have a fun conversation about what people look for today in entertainment and in our very humble opinions, maybe they’re looking for something different. Something unique. Something they’ve never seen before. Could that something be Canadian? Maybe we are all just a little sick of algorithms convincing us to watch the same old boring crap? Just maybe. This year’s awards will be honoring members like Jacob Tierney, Duy Nguyen and Kirwan Cox and awarding nominees in categories like outstanding performances in television, films, video games and stunts. This years awards takes place Friday, June 12th at Le Gesù and you can buy tickets here. For the full list of awards and nominees check out ACTRA Montreal’s website. I’m joined this week by Walter J. Lyng as co-host and we recorded this episode at the back of Grumpy’s Bar on Bishop. Enjoy the show!
