“It’s true to the human experience.”

TallBoyz strikes the perfect balance between comedy and social commentary.

Each of their sketches has you laughing while also encouraging discussions around different social issues such as homophobia, privilege and racism.

IGNITE had the opportunity to chat with Humber alum and stars of the show, Vance Banzo and Tim Blair.

Here’s what they had to say about their time at Humber, working in comedy and what people can expect from the new upcoming season of TallBoyz, premiering on CBC and CBC Gem on Tuesday, Feb. 16 at 9:30 p.m.

And if you haven’t already had the chance, make sure to check out their first season, which can be streamed for free, on CBC Gem!
