Have you ever had to deal with a major illness that greatly impacted your work, relationships, and quality of life?
Designer $hit is a documentary written, produced, directed, and edited by Canadian actress Saffron Cassaday. Releasing on iTunes on November14th, it details her real-life journey & suffering, having lived with ulcerative colitis for years.
At her wits end, Saffron opted to try Fecal Microbiota Transplant (FMT) - a new treatment hailed as the biggest medical breakthrough of the 21st century that involves taking stool from a healthy donor and implanting it into the gut of a sick patient. But was it worth it?
In this Janette’s TV & Janette’s TV Podcast episode, we discuss how the treatment is done & if it really helped her, the toll having a chronic illness takes on a person in their work and personal relationships & how she managed it, why she made this movie now & what she wants viewers to take away from it, and more!

Have you been the support system to a spouse? The one that was with them when they had nothing, helped them build a dream and get where they (and you) are today?
It is said that “behind every great man is a great woman “and “behind every great woman is herself”. It is also said “that a man is not a financial plan”.
The movie DUMB MONEY truly exemplifies these expressions through its lead female characters, particularly in the roles of actresses America Ferrera (who plays Jenny) and Shailene Woodley (who plays Caroline Gill).
Both watched, waited, encouraged, and contributed to their partners success - working jobs, raising kids, managing the family finances, and holding the fort down. In the middle of the Pandemic in this David vs. Goliath tale about everyday people who flipped the script on Wall Street to become rich by turning GameStop (the video game store) into the world’s hottest company, their lives & attitudes quickly changed.
What was their influence? How did they cope with the responsibilities, relationship dynamics, and new-found wealth, especially when the chips were down? How have other women like Martha Stewart been instrumental in achieving independence, making money, and taking on Wall Street? And what can we learn from them?
These are just some of the questions that I explore in this Janette’s TV & Janette’s TV Podcast episode in my conversation with the film’s writers Lauren Schuker Blum and Rebecca Angelo, on the red-carpet, at the DUMB MONEY Tiff premiere.

How is the war between Israel, Hamas & the Palestinians affecting you and your family?
Like most Western countries across the globe, there have been ongoing and increased incidents of antisemitism, Islamophobia & bullying in Canada prior to and since October 7th. As a result, police protection and patrols have been heavily ramped-up in most Jewish neighbourhoods.
Given Canada’s diverse multicultural background and zero-tolerance hate policy, regardless of what side you stand on, hurling insults & threats, proclaiming Days of Revenge, spreading hate on University & College campuses, and organizing demonstrations that put Jewish & Non-Jewish lives, communities & businesses in danger, are wrong and all too familiar of 1930’s Nazi Germany.
In this Janette’s TV & Janette’s TV Podcast episode, I’m joined by Michelle Outmezguine, York Region District School Board Grade 5 Educator & Advocate for Antisemitism, Bullying, and Israel’s Rights. Through her EFTO union, Michelle has made motions to create an antisemitism task force and Jewish Heritage Month Poster. She has also developed Social Studies resources for the government’s new antisemitism curriculum expectations and written letters to various organizations objecting to speakers who have a history of anti-Israel advocacy.
From both her & her Muslim colleagues’ experiences, Michelle and I discuss what is going on in classrooms across Ontario, Canada & the world, what teachers & parents can do to objectively filter news their children are exposed to, the freedom & understanding we all truly want, and how we can all live cohesively.

How far would you go to get your children back if you learned your abusive ex-husband had kidnapped them?
The powerful, true story of what happened to Lizbeth Meredith & her daughters plays out in Lifetime Network’s film Stolen By Their Father.
Lizbeth is portrayed by Actress, Sarah Drew, whom you may recognize from her roles as Hannah Rogers in The WB family drama series Everwood and Dr. April Kepner in the ABC medical drama series Grey's Anatomy.
I met up with Sarah on the red-carpet at the 2023 Canadian Screen Actors Awards where the movie was nominated for Best Writing.
In this film, a mother’s love knows no borders. Lizbeth risks everything to protect her daughters and ultimately bring them home.
Sarah and I discuss this role, story, case & events, how often this happens to women, and how it’s very possible they can lose their kids because they don’t have the resources to fight.

What are your kids interested in studying? And why?
As I discovered in my interview with Sarah Bay Cheng, Dean of the School of
Arts, Media, Performance & Design, York University while attending this
year's Vaughan International Film Festival's Student Screenings, the
preferred post-secondary education and career path for the next generation
of Canadian youth is Media, Performance, Design, and Film.
What's behind this growing discipline? And what will our kids be up against
in an AI changing world, as art, science & technology continue to merge?
