Goat Boy came by the Winnipeg Free Press News Café.

Comedian Jim Breuer, who carved out his pop culture niche on Saturday Night Live in the late ’90s with a character that truly needs no explanation, sat down for an interview at 9:30 a.m. this morning.

The 47-year-old is not one to rest on his laurels — whatever laurels bleating like a goat might have resulted in — and has instead reinvented himself by going “clean.”

It might be a bit of a stretch for audiences, who also remember him from stoner comedy Half Baked, but it’s not for the married father of three, whose material now centres on fatherhood and relationships.

Oh, and he’s funny as hell, as evidenced by being named one of Comedy Central’s 100 Greatest Stand-Ups of All Time.

Breuer is playing two shows each of tonight and Saturday night at Rumor’s Comedy Club. Tickets are still available.
