Tommy Lather, founder of Takeoff Monkey, shares a raw and powerful story of falling hard — and fighting his way back. Once trapped in a heavy-drinking construction culture, Tommy’s life spiraled until a life-threatening seizure and devastating personal loss forced a moment of truth he couldn’t ignore. He opens up about the humbling reality of moving back in with his parents at rock bottom, the emotional and physical toll addiction took, and how choosing sobriety didn’t just save his life — it transformed it. Clear-minded and determined, Tommy rebuilt himself and grew his company into a $2.6M business, proving that recovery can become a launchpad, not a limitation. This conversation goes beyond addiction. Tommy talks candidly about the emotions sobriety brought rushing back, the power of family support, navigating dating without alcohol, balancing entrepreneurship with recovery, and his honest take on AI and the future. Raw, honest, and deeply inspiring, this episode is a reminder that hitting bottom doesn’t mean the end — sometimes it’s the beginning of everything.

Jimmy Rankin reflects on a life shaped by songs, stories, and the salt air of Cape Breton. Raised in a family where music wasn’t a career choice but a way of communicating, he traces his journey from kitchen-table harmonies to international stages as a founding member of The Rankins, and on into a solo career that has carried Celtic-rooted songs far beyond the island that inspired them. Along the way, Jimmy opens up about family and fame, about loss and resilience, and about how grief has a way of sharpening what matters most. He shares rare insight into his creative process—how silence can be as important as sound, why home continues to pull him back, and how the simplest melodies often carry the heaviest truths. At its heart, this is a conversation about belonging. About why certain songs stay with us for life. And about why, after all these years, Jimmy Rankin still steps on stage with the same intention he always had: to sing something honest, to make people feel seen, and to remind them—if only for a few minutes—where they come from.   Catch Jimmy out on the road... and sea!
