There are many things happening around the world this weekend, and one of them is the 2008 installment of PodCamp Toronto, held once again this year at Ryerson University’s lovely Rogers Communication Centre. Both Tristan and Dan will be in attendance, so if you plan on attending, why not come by, say hello, and grab one of Tristan’s impractically thick business cards.

In other news, Dan will be making one of his frequent appearances on CBC’s GO! on Saturday morning. Not sure what he’ll be doing there, but the show is about Facebook, so odds are he’ll probably be talking about how he doesn’t want to use it.

Also, From the House of the Dead, the opera that features Tristan as an extra, has been getting so many ridiculously wonderful reviews and will be playing for the last time on Friday night. What will be next for Tristan? Broadway, perhaps? Only time will tell.

Torontonians in the know are well aware of Dan Misener’s Grownups Read Things They Wrote as Kids reading series. Not in Toronto? Or simply not in the know? Not to worry! This Saturday, the world at large will be able to experience a taste of GRTTWaK on CBC’s GO!, as Dan and a few of his fellow grownups, including Tristan, will be talking about the series, and reading things they wrote as kids.
