80 - Marcus Kelly Curtis - Verticals, Vibes & Very Good Food...

Are you in the mood for a mix of Canada , verticals , and a
full-on food tour —all combined with a generous portion of humor
and fun? Then you’re absolutely in the right place with this
conversation between Marcus Kelly Curtis and me





️ Small trigger warning: There’s a very high chance this episode
will make you hungry—and might leave you with a strong urge to
plan a food trip to Germany ️





Marcus and I dive into a relaxed and entertaining conversation
about his original career plans as an ice hockey player , which
then shifted toward studying neurology —until his mom encouraged
him to give acting school a try … where he ultimately found his
true passion.





Since he’s always loved stepping into different roles and
entertaining people, it didn’t take long for Marcus to become
very grateful for that life-changing advice





His lightness, humor, and genuine desire to entertain make acting
his dream job
 Always in a good mood—and known to improvise on set —Marcus
has an impressive ability to remember scripts, even after a skull
concussion


What he ate that day, though? That’s a different story…





What does he wish for his future in the vertical world?
  More shoots outside of Canada


Better storylines


And more screen time to stay longer with the characters he grows
to love ️





His must-have on set?
 Good vibes and colleagues who can keep up with his energy





We’ve already (mostly ) planned his 2026 food trip across Germany
and Switzerland —now I’m just waiting for his message about when
he’s landing so we can kick off the adventure
 Think: Carpool Karaoke, ABBA songs , and lots of amazing
food ️





This episode is packed with humor, great stories, and even some
deeper, thoughtful moments
 Enjoy listening—and stay tuned for our upcoming food trip
vlog
