Summary:
Steve Patterson has been the host of CBC Radio's comedy show The Debaters since 2007 and he has performed at several of the Just for Laughs televised galas, including one hosted by Steve Martin. Considered to be the highlight of the show by the audience and critics alike, Patterson's performance prompted the legendary Martin to quip, 'If I'd known he was going to be THAT good, I would have cancelled him.' Patterson's letters, long a staple of his stand-up comedy routine, address a number of recipients, from real people, to groups, to inanimate objects and concepts. He airs grievances, offers support or creates just plain confusion in unplainly humorous prose. From the political to the personal, from the philosophical to the mundane, no subject or target is off limits. Patterson's letters may not change the world, but frankly, it's too early to tell. He pleads, begs, cajoles, grovels, and always makes a compelling argument. He would like men to stop wearing Spandex bike shorts. He would like airlines to stop selling seats they don't have. He would like gluten to explain itself.
