    Dwayne De Rosario is one of the best soccer players Canada has ever produced. He was always a legit threat to score a goal or create a chance for all the clubs he played for including Toronto FC as well as being a constant offensive presence for the Canadian National Team. Dwayne and I discuss how looking back on your childhood can be therapeutic as he's done in his new book DeRo: My Life. You'll learn plenty about him in this chat regarding his motivations and mentality. Here we go!

    Tragically Hip guitarist Rob Baker joins me this week and we get into the band's artistic process and work ethic. He describes his early relationship with the guitar plus the Hip's mentality when touring and recording. I ask some questions from listeners but we learn what Rob's musical plans are going forward. This is a rare look inside the workings of Canada's most iconic band through a very open and honest conversation.

    Solving a long standing problem with Geoff Mackay
    Jun 22 2021
    Geoff Mackay is a talented standup comic out of Ottawa who I met many years ago. Geoff has always been a very together guy and even then he gave me the sense he would go on to do bigger things. Although he still has a foot in the standup world, he's gone on to found a new clean tech company called The Aggressive Good which looks to change how bulk products are distributed in grocery stores. This new system is far more economical and much better for the environment. Find out how Geoff is not just looking to make us laugh, but also making us rethink our grocery store experience. Do it up!

  • Serlin Greaves - Two longtime musical friends are back with honest songs to sell

    Serlin Greaves - Two longtime musical friends are back with honest songs to sell
    May 25 2021
    Joey Serlin and Daniel Greaves are one half of The Watchmen and 100 percent of the new duo Serlin Greaves. Both guys felt they had fresh songs in them and it spiraled into a brand new album called Sad Songs For Sale. I've heard the album already and I honestly think it's some of the best work they've done to date. It's beyond catchy but non-repetitive with various changes of pace and arrangements. We get into the origins of this new project and walk through each track individually. This is as up close and personal as I've ever seen these two so if you're a fan you'll really enjoy this one. If you're not already, then you will be. Enjoy!
