On the show this week, we talk with Greg Houston, a local comedian whose prolific hosting of Ottawa events means you’ve probably already seen him on a stage at some point. Greg shares a little about his Space Jam-themed Ottawa Fringe show and regales us with the story of the first time he bombed a set.
