Well okay, so the fact that it's been three weeks since my last update speaks to how easy it is to get sucked into the vortex that is June and Pride month!
After having a blast playing at Massey Hall as a opener for Sandra Bernhardt, recording the voice overs for the CBC Winnipeg Comedy Festival , taking we're funny that way ® on the road to Kelowna BC Pride with Kate Rigg, Vidur Kapur , and Darcy Michael, getting to see the Okanagan Rainbow Coalition 's new community centre made possible by a grant from The We're Funny That Way Foundation , starting a new production company (A Sweet Little Production Company) with two colleagues from my past TV show life where our first gig (as the new entity) was shooting a video for the amazing Caroline Dupont (holistic health practitioner), and starting a new show in Ptown at the Post Office Cabaret, it's kind of easy to see how June got away.
The show at the Post Office has been a lot of fun so far and if you manage to get to Provincetown I hope you'll come and see it. In the meantime, we continue to work on On Line with Maggie Cassella in hopes of being in full production by the fall. Don't be shy if you want to be a part of the show. And by that we mean, SPONSORHIPS abound!! As specialty channels love content but don't seem to have enough money to pay for it, we're raising it ourselves, so seriously, if you have a business and want to be a part of the show, get in touch and we'll tell you WHY it's a great idea. ;-)
Thanks for checking in as always.

PS. We're also experimenting with little short Maggierants (aka Because I Said So®) that are a little more "produced". Check out the Smiley Face Road Rage short at mdialog.com. This is a pretty cool new video site we've started a channel on. Just put my name into the search engine and off you go. (You may have to sign up but it's free). It's our first effort on one of these so be gentle. ;-) Thanks some more!!

Hi All!
A quick update in the middle of an insane week!
1. The pilot for On Line with Maggie Cassella is in post production mode. We're editing it and putting it all together then going out to sell the puppy to some sponsors to raise some production cash. It's actually pretty exciting and will return as priority number one after...well, see #2.
2. WE'RE FUNNY THAT WAY IS THIS WEEK !! If you haven't gotten tickets to shows yet, then seriously get them. The gala and ALL of the shows on Thursday were sold out and we really want to have you there. Remember they're PWYW in advance and at the door so come have some laughs on the We're Funny That Way Foundation! Oh and go here to see this year's SPONSOR THANK YOU VIDEO .
3. Thank you to all the peeps who showed up for a really fun time at the Rum Runner in London. Big thanks to Nancy for having me there and doing an amazing job organizing an SRO show!! I see London, I see France, and yes, from where I was sitting, I also saw lots of underpants. WHAT? That makes no sense I know, but it's early and the middle of WFTW and I'm clearly a little fried ;-) .
Thanks as always for checking in!
:-) Maggie

Hey there!
Okay so we shot the pilot for On Line with Maggie Cassella today and man was it a lot of fun. I don't have any fun behind the scenes clips to show you right now but I do have some "set shots" with our X v Y guests Alison Duke and Mark Breslin and our Handy Ma'am C orner guests "The Christophers" from Living Arts Design - you can see all their cool stuff at www.livingartsdesign.com Hopefully, next week I can get back to posting some new rants but there's also we're funny that way ® coming up so there's lots of busy going on with the biz of funny this month. Oh and here are a couple behind the scenes shots, one which includes the sweet "houseboy" Charlie Smith.
Thanks as always for checking in! xo! M

Hi, hi, hi, and thanks to all for the sweet props on my first BISS vlog. Ding Dong spoke, so up goes another. And I really thought I was done with him...
Thanks, as always, for checking in.

Okay i've snapped. I have a new Mac and decided to throw up
miscellaneous Because I Said So's as the ridiculous hits the fan. I
don't have a daily outlet right now, so why not?
Oh, by the way, we're shooting the pilot for On Line with Maggie and
should be done in a couple of weeks! Yeah there's some news.
I hope you like me on my Mac with no MAC (make-up) ;-). Thanks for always checking in.

Hello Lovely Peeps Who Check This Page!
Okay so some news... I'm now in pre-production for a new show that will air on OUT tv in Canada AND on the Internet on it's own website. The show is called On Line with Maggie Cassella and I guess the best way to describe it is to say it's a combination of my old TV talk show (Because I Said So) and my old drive home radio show. Interviews, panel discussions, BISS rants, and a cute little hottie sidekick named Charlie to boot!
ANYWAY, I need help picking a logo for the show, so as you can see, we've narrowed it down to two and would love to know which one you like the best. So please, if you have a minute, click on your fave and vote!
PLUS, we're looking for a unique and funky theme song - so soon we'll launch a theme song contest. Besides our eternal gratitude the winner will be given credit and a guest appearance on the show. Stay tuned for that!
And sponsorship opportuniies abound too! So if you're in a biz somewhere and you're thinking, hey, I'd love some product placement on THAT show - get in touch cuz we're looking for sponsors and, I hate to say the "f-word" but financing, as well.
Ewwww, too much business talk. Sorry! Can't wait to see which logo you like best.
Stay tuned for more and better news up dates.
Best and then some,
Maggie

Holy Crapoli!
I just wanted to take a minute to thank everyone who came to the tapings of my year end shows last night (December 9th). You were all amazing. Two audiences in a row I wish I could take with me everywhere.
