Key takeaways 4

Canadian comedians face significant career hurdles in the US due to the small talent pool and the necessity of living in the US to remain visible to casting directors.
US tariffs on Canadian mail have made sending small care packages prohibitively expensive, with duties exceeding the value of the items themselves (e.g., $89.91 duty on a $50 package).
Will Sasso underwent surgery to correct three hammered toes by removing the knuckles and inserting pins, resulting in straight toes that cannot curl but allow full mobility.
Sasso recommends a specific DIY treatment for foot holes: using gauze rolled to the size of the hole, saline solution (or eye drops), and daily bandaging to encourage skin growth around the gauze while continuing to walk.
