Charlie Demers opening for Sarah Silverman
JFL NW Festival 2017
Charlie has opened for Sarah Silverman, Bob Odenkirk, and Marc Maron, also appearing as a featured guest on the latter’s popular podcast WTF. He also provides the voice of “Poutine” on Will Arnett’s patriotic superhero send-up Super Team Canada.
Charlie’s latest book is The Eh Team, the ultimate guide to the quirks, charm, and outright hilarity of the Canadian lexicon. This quirky and proudly patriotic book is your backstage pass to the words, phrases, and expressions that make Canada the Great White North. From "double-double" to "pencil crayons," from "Nanaimo bars" to "toque,” this witty and insightful book reveals the unique language and culture that define life above the 49th parallel.
“Funny, short snippets of Canadiana wrung through the hilariously encyclopedic mind of Charlie Demers—so good.”—Ins Choi, creator of Kim's Convenience
