Join Oliver as he chats with beloved musician and children's entertainer, Fred Penner! Perhaps best known for his long-running kids' show 'Fred Penner's Place' (which aired from 1985-1997), Fred's music and wisdom has touched countless people. Not only has he won the Juno Award for 'Children's Album of the Year' a whopping four times, Fred was even made a Member of the Order of Canada back in 1991!

 

In this magical episode, Fred explains about his musical origins, including his early days with a musical comedy troupe called 'Kornstock'. Oliver inquires about the iconic sweaters Fred often wore over the years, and Fred shares an amazing story about the time that he met Elton John. The discussion wraps up with talk about ways to stay sane and healthy during the pandemic, and why meditation might just be the key.
