What a thrill to interview this high-level creative!
Cayuga, Ontario is not only on the map for being home to a number of NHL hockey players and the first female Superior Court Judge in the British Empire, but one of its native sons is also award-winning Canadian filmmaker, Jeremy LaLonde, the prolific creator of o'-so-many relatable, quirky, honest, strangely sweet and heartwarming, and just plain FUN films that stand out in a crowded industry. And the characters in them…are CHARACTERS. "How to Plan an O**y in a Small Town", "James vs. His Future Self", "The Go-Getters"…the list goes on and on.
He's also the host of PB with Jeremy, an upbeat, wildly successful YouTube series that uses humour as that little spoonful of sugar to keep people from putting up their guards when he talks about plant-based eating.
Also a self-proclaimed -- if reading this aloud, be sure to enunciate VERY carefully -- former fat forker, he lost about half his body weight, largely from going plant-based.
Huge thanks to content creator, Elvis Deane, for doing the editing for this interview…as well as being the person who made me aware of this Canadian treasure. Full circle!
