This interview was initially published in May 2019.
2023 update: I’ve been friends with Liam for years and my initial impressions still hold. He’s a funny dude that’s a pleasure to be around. I also hired him to be the voice of Architects’ Claim Stories, a podcast produced for Pro-Demnity insurance company (minus the cursing) in which he’s proven to be a supremely talented voice artist.
The most memorable interviews are those in which the guest becomes a friend. This is one of those.
Liam Gadsby is a veteran comic and all around creative force living and performing in Toronto. I met Liam one day at the local café and his larger-than-life personality is what drew me to him. Upon befriending him, I learned that he was an unstoppable creative force and came to appreciate being around him for a good laugh. He’s comfortable with things that most people would shiver at the mere mention of and goes through life doing his thing, regardless of what other people think.

About the podcast:
The intent behind our podcast series "Truth Is Golden" is to look at (future) renowned creatives and their work with a critical eye. We aim to ask deep questions in order to peel back the layers of marketing, clever one-liners and sexy branding. We want to show the world what it truly takes for genuinely creative forces to find their own voice build a career on what is very often nothing more than a drive to do things differently. We want to hear about the successes, the failures, the inspirational stories and the lessons gleaned from all of it. We want the truth, so that we can inspire other people to fulfill their own creative aspirations and in the process contribute to making the world a better place.
