The Dutch Hall with Pete Van Dyk

We welcome back Comedians, Joe Botelho and AJ Bate to the Hall.  We discuss comedy, COVID, improv and cancel culture and a whole bunch of nonsense in between.  Kevin Van Dongen plays the role of the Nocturnal Emissions.

We have the Dan Brennan and Ben Bayfield in the Hall to talk about the life and death of Maradona and Stand up Comedy.  Mike Bouw, Wes Haegens and Kevin Van Dongen make up the Nocturnal Emissions

We have a really fun episode all about slavery.  It sounds bad but trust me, I have no idea if its bad or not, I'm not that smart.

Another thick chat in the pool shed with Pete.  Kevin Van Dongen and Lee Wallace sit down to tell stories make up facts and talk nonsense.  Enjoy.

2020 has brought a record number of deaths to our Dutch Hall Death Pool.  We bring in the curator of our pool, Laurie Ball, to discuss the results.  However, as usual, we get sidetracked and talk about everything else first.  Lee Wallace returns.

Pete welcomes a Dutch Hall Super Fan and a Newbie to the Show.  Super old school show.  It gets weird at times but so does life.  

Pete welcomes a unique guest in a rare Friday morning Dutch Hall.  They tackle the subject of loneliness.

Pete sits down with the Band Leader of the Nocturnal Emissions, Mike Bouw, for a nice old school podcast where we tell old stories, have a thick religion talk and get some feedback from a famous person.

A sliver of what's remaining of the Nocturnal Emissions joins a super fan and a gorgeous co-host join Pete for a fun night in the pool shed.  Enjoy.

Pete gets together with some familiar faces in the old pool shed to discuss what is happening with Spiky Ball Studios, Pete's health, and the chance of getting the band back together.

The Dutch Hall is back after a long hiatus.  Pete travels to Hamilton to interview stand up comedians, AJ Bate and Jason Allen about their podcast, In Search of Zen, AJ Murdering Gaddafi, and the source of Pete's shame. 

Pete invites some of the Dutch Hall regulars to get together for what passes for a party now-a-days!

We try to give our listeners some sage advice through this time of panic, but mostly talk about poop.  So much poop talk.toilet papet

Against all his better judgement, Pete and the Dutch Hall Crew record another show even though no one is really feeling it.  And you know what?  Not bad.

Still technically a hiatus show, the Dutch Hall gang get back together to write some music and shoot the breeze.  We talk Coronavirus, pipeline lines, knife forging, hack on the Germans and play a game to determine whether or not lesbians have accents.

The Hiatus is getting ugly!  The band is down to two men and a drummer we pulled off the street, (they still wrote a cool song), no crew at all and Pete has never been weirder.  An absolutely strange show. 

Pete welcomes a Live From the Dutch Hall regular, Manny Feijo, to the booth.  They talk what its like to look for work as a middle aged man, how much crap we will put up with and really just have a nice chat.  Manny is one of the most honest and open people I know, and he has a big announcement!

Pete calls Steve into the booth to record an update for the listeners, to bring them up to speed on what's happening during our Hiatus.  Spoiler Alert - F All.  So Pete gathers together the Holy Trinity of PNS and takes them on a tropical retreat to figure out this new show!  

One of the Nocturnal Emissions has to go, if the voting came down to a tie (Spoiler Alert! - it did) the tie would be broken by Whiskey Wes Haegans.  This is his shocking response!

I thought maybe given recent events, it might be in poor taste to release this episode.  But then I realized, it has always been in poor taste.  Enjoy!  Or don't

Pete hastily brings in the members of the Greatest Band in Canadian Late Night History, the Nocturnal Emissions, individually, to ask them a question that could change the show forever! #PNS 

We miss our listeners so much that we needed to give them a chance to be heard during our hiatus, just for you you all get invited to our next show!

This is the first pilot for new shows we are working on here at Spiky Ball Studios.  In this first episode of Backstage with Pete Van Dyk, Pete sits down with film maker, producer, writer, comedian and actor, Brandon MacIntosh to discuss the more than 21 different occupations he has had in his very eclectic life.  We do this in search of a job that doesn't suck. Tell us what you think of the show....

Six years ago to the day, we started something for no reason and kept doing it every week until it became something and tonight is the last show of its kind.  Thanks to everyone who has ever supported us in any way and stay tuned ... You ain't seen nothing yet! Happy Holidays!

The Dutch Hall welcomes comedian and oldest person we could find, Jimmy England to do our show.  We talk comedy, sex, and tell jokes no one likes but us.  And we pay tribute to our dearly missed friend on his birthday.
