Peachy: Jay Peachy

Jay Peachy: Although the Coquitlam native no longer hosts it, Peachy keeps in close contact with the show he created in 2009 to foster awareness about mental illness through storytelling and art, according to CBC. Peachy honed his comedic skills as a comic in Stand Up For Mental Health, a group that fosters empowerment among the mentally ill through comedy and Jay Peachy leans against the studio doorway of CJSF Radio the campus station of Simon Fraser University as he listens to the stations mental health program, Sound Therapy Radio. He usually sticks to the sidelines, but every now and then he comes on air to crack a joke or two, employing a soft-spoken brand of humour. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
