Description

The great outdoors is overrated, says Ivy Le, a comedian and podcaster from Austin, Texas. Ivy, a self-admitted indoorswoman, took on camping, and then hunting, as a sort of exercise in reverse colonialism. Ivy is Asian, you see, as well as a bisexual Buddhist mom with allergies, and she couldn’t see herself, or anyone like her, in a tent in the woods with a gun, ready to butcher and eat whatever she catches. So she set out to see what she was missing, and the result is FOGO - Fear of Going Outside, a hilarious and eye-opening look at nature by someone who finds it unnatural.
Ivy Le is Vietnamese American comedian from Austin, Texas. She’s a first generation college grad who speaks Spanish, German, Vietnamese and English. She’s also a reporter, a poet, and a bi mom of two kids who is on a mission to queer up comedy and decolonize everything. She has performed at the Laugh After Dark Comedy Fest, Tower City Comedy Fest, Lysistrata Comedy Festival and more! Her podcast FOGO - Fear of Going Outside is available here.

Women of Ill Repute is a compliment. And not just for women! Wendy Mesley and Maureen Holloway have left CBC and CHFI to chat with sassy women about sex, family, politics, and media. Lots of secrets and no room for shame. Is it journalism or comedy? It’s both. Smart talk with tv and radio stars, comedians, authors, lawyers, politicos, restaurant icons and more. All of them brave, fierce and funny. Fun!
