Squirrel toupee guy, Bobby from Bobby versus Satan, cabbage head, the little guy who picks fights at the bar and won’t stay down, and the flying pig. These are just some of the memorable characters that Bruce McCulloch portrayed on Kids in the Hall.

This week we chat with Bruce about the beginning of Kids in the Hall from the gritty streets of Edmonton to the state of Canadian comedy, the CBC, TallBoyz, and working with Lorne Michaels.
