Arlene Is Alone with Tom Green

Tom Green—Canadian comedy icon, actor, musician, and pioneer of internet comedy—joins Arlene Dickinson for a hilarious and reflective conversation about his new show, his life on the farm, and the wild, winding path that got him here. Tom opens up about his decision to move back to Canada after years in Hollywood and his new life on 150 acres of farmland—where he's now filming his Crave series The Tom Green Farm. He and Arlene dive into the unique format of the show and the incredible guests he's hosted, including Tony Hawk, Dan Aykroyd, and George Stroumboulopoulos. It turns out, the farm has become exactly the kind of creative space Tom has always wanted to build. The conversation also takes us through Tom's many creative ventures over the years—his early days emulating the Beastie Boys with his rap group, his foray into country music, and the legendary antics that made him a household name as a late-night radio show host and creator of The Tom Green Show. Tom also reflects on his cult-classic film Freddy Got Fingered—and why its failure at the box office turned out to be one of the best things that ever happened to him. Perhaps most touching, Tom talks about having his mom as a producer on The Tom Green Farm and how much he treasures the time he gets to spend with his parents on the farm. This is a conversation about reinvention, family, creative freedom, and what happens when you finally come home.
