B+, with Braedan Zimmer episodes

  • Brendon Landry (2)

    It was a pleasure to have Brendon on once again. We start with a COVID check-in, then we talk about workouts, engaging in play, staying in the present moment, investing in your twenties, gaslighting, and how we all like to romanticize "getting back to nature." It sounds serious, but we have a ton of laughs in the process. Enjoy!

    2 hr 4 min
  • Ashley Cyr
    Ashley Cyr is the Marketing Coordinator at Broadview Press. She's also loves to run, is a devoted dog-owner, and has professionally edited a number of manuscripts outside of her employment with Broadview (an admirable side hustle). We talk about her religious roots, going "pandemic crazy," overestimating your skill at something you've only done a few times, the seemingly endless desire for novelty, and more. Enjoy!
    2 hr 1 min
  • Hannah McNabb
    Hannah is the host of her own podcast, "Literally! with Hannah Anna." Fittingly, we talk podcasting: advertising, the highs and lows of hosting, and how popular podcasting has become in the COVID-19 world. Enjoy!
    1 hr 29 min
  • Hale Rothery

    Hale is in his final year of an undergraduate degree in philosophy at Vancouver Island University. We discuss why he chose philosophy, dyslexia, substance abuse and addiction, and more!

    1 hr 40 min
  • Zac Cioban (3)

    Zac is a good friend, a curious question-poser, and always fun to talk to. We discuss Formula 1 racing, chess, ascending to the top of a given activity or field, and a whole bunch more!

    2 hr 11 min
  • Pelé Gouda
    Pelé is the former Policy Director of the BC Young New Democrats, was a 2018 candidate for Nanaimo City Council, and is simply an uber-articulate guy. (Can you expect anything less from a man whose father holds not one, not two, but THREE PhDs?)
    Among much else, Pelé and I discuss education and the need to think and compose on one's own time, his experience in the political sphere, and his bumpy path to God. Enjoy!
    1 hr 57 min
  • Cameron Vallee

    We discuss the nuclear family and the three-generation home model, cities vs. rural areas, gardening and growing your own food, the 40-hour work week and work/life balance, Lambda schools vs. student loans, chatbots, and more!

    1 hr 21 min
  • Colby Stolson

    Colby Stolson is a bibliophile, bassist, and fellow Publisher's Rep at Broadview Press. For the first half hour we talk about books (so skip to 30:00ish if that doesn't turn your crank).

    After that, we talk about mortgages and debt, winter/snow, our experience travelling in the US for Broadview, how self-consciousness and doubt cripple us in sports and in creative pursuits, and finally, minimalism and how possessions can hold our memories.

    1 hr 58 min
  • Zac Cioban (US Election Day 2020)

    We discuss the transportation alternatives to cars/trucks, a little bit about privacy and civil liberties, and a whole lot about the two candidates for the US election—Donald Trump and Joe Biden. I combed through Wikipedia before the episode and came prepared with little-known facts about each of the candidates. Enjoy!


    P.S. It was Trump's grandfather, Friedrich, who died of the 1918 Spanish Flu pandemic, not Trump's father, Fred.

    1 hr 37 min
  • Amanda Dobbyn
    We discuss coaching in sports, openness on both sides of the political spectrum, circumcision, abortion, forgiving student debt, political ideals vs realities, criminality, pandemics, social media, and more!
