Meet the New Humour Editor

By Brad McLeod

After the sudden and tragic graduation of beloved former humour editor Gary Lim, The Peak has brought in a new, younger, hipper and ‘less Asian’ editor to take his place. Although his name might not mean a lot to you, he actually has quite an extensive history in comedy.

Meet Brad McLeod

– He has over 20 years’ experience in being alive

– He read the list of Variety’s 10 Comics to Watch in 2007

– He’s written articles that were similar to what a contributor for Mad Magazine from 2008 to 2010 would’ve written

– He thinks it would’ve been cool if he could’ve been Editor in Chief of the Harvard Lampoon in 2011

– He knows trivia such as who won the Mark Twain Prize for American Humour in 2012

– If he had been born 7 year later, lived in New York and was related to Milton Berle there’s a chance he could have become the youngest member of the New York Friars’ Club at 13 years old

– He’s often tried to convince strangers he meets at bars that he is a personal friend of comedian Chris Rock, to varying degrees of success.

McLeod hopes he can transition this experience into a successful run as Humour Editor at The Peak and invites any and all positive feedback as well as constructive death threats.

The Peak spoke to a staff member of the academic and administrative services office to learn more.  We will refer to the staff member as Madge to protect her identity. Madge volunteered information to the publication when a member of The Peak...
