Forever Young with Dean Young and Friends

We wrap up our 2016 season of Forever Young with the annual Air Farce New Year's special! Now in it's 24th year on the CBC, Dean went and caught a taping of the iconic Canadian sketch troupe's NYE comedy special. We caught up with cast member Craig Lauzon (Air Farce, Ron James Show, Sean Cullen Show) and called up our friend Aisha Alfa (now a 3-year cast member) en route to South Africa. Who were the biggest targets in 2016? What's the power of satire during trying political times? Our #ComedyIsArt movement for funding, funny stories from on set and MORE!

This week on Forever Young, we call up our friend Joanna Angel. A porn pioneer, Joanna Angel was at the forefront of the 'Alt Porn' genre and the punk girl aesthetic that took the adult industry by storm. She heads up the Alt Porn empire Burning Angel. She gives us some e-business insights for Talkhole. And plugs (wink) her new Fleshlight special editions, as one of the most popular 'Fleshlight Girls'.

This week on Forever Young, our first ever guest Marilla Wex returns to the show 4 seasons after our debut episode! Now a correspondent on The Beaverton ("North America's Trusted Source of News")airing Wednesdays on The Comedy Network. We look back on our original topic, the yet-to-be-seen-or-confirmed (at the time) now infamous Rob Ford crack tape. And Beaverton co-creator Luke Gordon Field tells us how Canada's satirical news site made it to the air, and why a Trump presidency so isn't worth all the material it might generate.

This week on Forever Young, we hit the mic with Toronto comedian, hustler, and new dad Chris Robinson. His first time performing at Montreal's world famous Just for Laughs festival. How he fought his way to the top of Top Comic on Sirius XM, and took home a cool 25k. Showing up on morning television decked out in bling. And what it takes to work your way to the top of the Canadian comedy game. From his humble beginnings at Humber, to life in standup almost a decade later.

This week on Forever Young, Dean sits down with musical comedy duo and improv power pair Kristy Lapointe and Adele Dicks. Toronto listeners might know them best from a little hit show at Comedy Bar called 'Gilmore Girlprov'. They've also released their debut album 'We Used to Look a Lot Worse' out now on iTunes. We talk teen crushes, Tiger Beat, the Gilmore Girls, the making of an album, and how a run of disaster theatre shows that totally flopped brought them together (oh and PS, Kristy LaPointe is Pwincess Bwigitta too, in case you were wondering)

There is literally no rhyme or reason to this week's episode. But it's fun! There's a burning car outside of the studio, and we're talking Fleshlights with this week's guest Kyle Lucey. Some people (Dean's Mom) have referred to Kyle as 'Dean's Protege', although this Padawan is rapidly eclipsing his sensei. Our friend Amish Patel drops by and talks about his series pitch to Kevin Hart at this year's Just for Laughs in Montreal
