Episode 119: Comedian Peter White, Aka ’Fat Tiger,’ Rises as a Prominent Voice in the Comedy Scene Across Canada, England and the World

Peter White, an engineer turned stand-up comic, quickly rose to prominence in the comedy scene, being named one of the “Top 5 Up and Coming Comedians in Canada” by CBC Radio’s “So, You Think You’re Funny?” within a year of his career. He has performed at top comedy clubs, corporate events, and theatres across Canada, including prestigious festivals like Just for Laughs, Winnipeg Comedy Festival, Montreal Comedy Festival, and the Halifax Comedy Festival for three consecutive years. Peter's comedic talents earned him an hour-long special on CTV and the Comedy Network’s Comedy Now. Beyond stand-up, he has established himself as a writer for the Gemini Award-winning "This Hour Has 22 Minutes" and the Gemini Award-nominated "That’s So Weird" on YTV. Peter's anecdotes about his university days shared with Mike at StFX, highlighting their former shenanigans and being in the loser residence! Peter has written a book on how to be funny (it’s possible for all of us!) and co-hosts his own podcast called, “30 Mins on High”. He eats only 5 types of food and is a self-proclaimed bad dresser.
