This week we interview comedian, and gay punk musician Paul Bellini. He was a writer on Kids in the Hall, he stared as The Towel Guy, he fronts the band Mouth Congress with Scott Thompson and he's a comedy instructor. Paul delights Jen and Christine with stories about his mom and her rum extract and coke.
Jen's former Second City Comedy Writing teacher Paul Bellini joins Mom's Are Not Funny to discuss his band Mouth Congress, which premiers March 5th at the Kingston Canadian Film Festival. It's about his band with Kids in the Hall's Scott Thompson that they started in the 80s. It was a first of its kind, a Gay Punk band (in the 80's when most people were still in the closet).
He talks about his supportive mom, how she loved lying, his dutch neighbour and more.
A long lover of all things comedy, Paul has been in the comedy world spanning four decades with great success on Canadian show's like Kids in the Hall and This Hour has 22 Minutes.
