When the hosts of the popular “Letterkenny” podcast The Last Stand came to town in May, they didn’t just get to visit the city where the series is filmed, they got to eat at Shoresy’s favourite breakfast spot.
In the third part of the Discover Sudbury five-part video series with the hosts of The Last Stand Podcast, the visitors got to fill their bellies at Eddie’s Restaurant.
Both Letterkenny and Shoresy are filmed in Greater Sudbury. During their visit, the Last Stand hosts visited several locations used on the shows during their tour of the area, including the Capreol Arena, where much of the show is filmed at a vacant ice pad currently leased for use as a film studio.
While Letterkenny is set in a fictional town, Greater Sudbury-area is featured prominently in Shoresy, which is set right here in the Nickel City.
The podcast hosts have also been publishing their own videos of the tour on their Instagram page, which is available by clicking here.
The third season of Shoresy premiered on Crave on May 24. New episodes drop Fridays.
The series follows the adventures of the Sudbury Blueberry Bulldogs hockey team and its titular character, Shoresy, played by Jared Keeso of Letterkenny fame. Keeso also created the show.
“In Season 3, Shoresy and the Sudbury Blueberry Bulldogs compete in the National Senior Tournament, facing off against teams from across Canada, like the Charlottetown Reds, Brooks Barrelmen, Vaughan Canadesi, and SOO Hunt,” according to a Bell Media release.
“This town has been really good to the town and good to us, and we’re just kind of blown away that this is where we are today, considering it all started off as a bit of a COVID project in our basements recorded over Zoom,” Mat Belanger said in the first of five videos posted online by Discover Sudbury to highlight their adventure.
The tourism leg of the City of Greater Sudbury invited the hosts of The Produce Stand Podcast, a Letterkenny/Shoresy-themed podcast, to visit Nickel City recently.
