Description

Wendy has a problem with rules. But some rules matter. Like the rules of improv. Naomi Snieckus loves those. And so does Maureen. Naomi talks about Improv Rule #1: Yes, And. About the importance of supporting a partner in comedy or drama or a podcast. And yes, in life.Naomi started doing improv at Second City in Toronto, and is now an actor, producer, writer and director.
She was on “Mr. D", “Degrassi”, “Pretty Hard Cases”, and voices a ton of cartoons.
During “Me Too” she launched The Firecracker Department which supports creative women and non-binary people. She’s also hosting a new podcast with Amanda Brugel called the Blaze Sessions. They are very supportive partners!
A version of this episode appears in video form on YouTube but sadly we lost connection to Jeannette's video about halfway through.
A transcript of the episode is 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!
