Mar. 16: John Cullen

It's sweeps week on Co-op radio. Not in the broadcasting sense, since Co-op radio is above such base considerations as listenership. I mean in the curling sense. Our guest tonight is John Cullen: comedian, teacher, and curler. As a comic, Cullen recently played to a sold-out Vogue audience as the warm-up to stunt magician Wes Barker. As a curler, he hosts the popular (in the curling world) video series Cullen and a Curler. He's also pretty adept at the sport, too. He's been a curler on the World Curling Tour for the last eight years, he won a bronze medal in the 2012 BC Men's Provincials, has appeared in four straight provincial tournaments, and was ranked 25th on the World Curling Tour money list in 2012. And as a teacher, he was able to join us so late on a school night because it's March break. He's also a bit of a drummer and was named one of Vancouver's most eligible bachelors by the Province newspaper. So we've got lots to talk about, even though I know nothing about curling.

We get things started at 11 pm PT on CFRO, 100.5 FM in Vancouver. But curling fans the world over can livestream the show at coopradio.org.
