My guest today is the general manager of Rumors Restaurant and Comedy Club which is celebrating it’s 40th anniversary this year.
Rumors has been host to some of the top comedians in the industry including, Chris Rock, Marlon Wayans, Brad Garrett, Jon Lovitz, Dave, Chappelle, Tom Segura, Bob Saget, Steve Harvey, Jon Stewart, Nate Bargatze and Norm Macdonald who called Rumors, "the best club in Canada." By the way, that list barely begins to cover it.
They still bring in the biggest headlining comics on the continent including, Jon Dore, Jay Pharaoh, Mark Forward, Nathan Macintosh, Deb Digiovani, DJ Demeeers, man these lists could keep going on forever.
The club is also home to the Winnipeg’s Funniest Person with a Day Job competition. A contest that’s seen the likes of Paul Rabluiskus, Aisha Alfa, John B Duff and more compete and has become a deep seated showcase in the province.
My guest began working at the comedy club in 2007 and quickly became a mainstay of the establishment. So much so that 2 years later, when the co-owner and manager Ross Rumberg passed away, it was an easy choice to ask Tyler to step in.
Since then the club has seen steady and persistent growth and innovation. It’s not every club you go to, that has consistently full houses on Tuesday’s and Wednesdays, let alone the regularly packed weekend shows.
Rumor’s unique approach to booking acts and selling tickets has contributed to it being constantly listed as one of the top comedy clubs in North America alongside The World Famous Hollywood Improv, Gotham and The Comedy Store.
But it’s not just critics and list makers that shout the club’s praises. I’ve joked that this podcast could be called the I love Rumors podcast because my conversations with guests faithfully evolve into singing the club’s praises.
My guest is an avid supporter of stand-up comedy in Canada and many comedians, including myself, owe a bulk of their success to this human being.

After studying to be an actor and a playwright, he stumbled into stand-up and relentlessly started taking the scene by storm.
He’s got a Comedy Now special, multiple episodes of the Ha!ifax Comedy Festival, and the Winnipeg Comedy Festival and 7 appearances at Just For Laughs. One of his appearances was so good he was named Best of The Fest and won a Canadian Comedy Award for it! And one reviewer from the Montreal gazette said, “Remember this name: Tim Nutt. The shaggy-haired and bearded Vancouverite was the standout comic in a very strong line up. Where have they been hiding this dude?”
He’s not just confined to Canada. He’s performed all over the world, including Kandahar, The Edinburgh Comedy Festival, The Detroit International Comedy Festival and so many more.
He’s a veteran of the Canadian Comedy scene and I’ve personally seen him perform many times, and I have to say, there’s not a lot of people in this country who kills like he does.
