Let's Solve The Universe

Kevin Bulmer, the No Schedule Man, is a gentlemen whom I have a deep amount of respect for. He is the embodiment of the phoenix - rise from the ashes to realize a better version of oneself. It's only fitting that he took on the role of host of momondays London. We had an intense conversation about change - how we fear it, how we embrace it, and how it can help our entire species evolve. You rock, Kevin. Thank you for being on the podcast. Show notes at http://lstupodcast.com/13.

Tara and I met back at momondays Guelph in 2018. She's an absolute marvel of a person, out to smash the barriers that stand in humanity's way. Her book, VisAble and Empowered, is her gift to the world. She's overcome some incredible obstacles, such as her high school when they shredded her university application. Her voice is one that advocates for all, especially those with disabilities. Our conversation ranged from the language of disabilities to self-advocacy, self-worth, and more. Plus we recorded it on her birthday! Thank you Tara for being part of this show. It was an honour.

Artists are the best to talk with. They have such insightful, real takes on the world. They're able to transcend all sorts of boundaries. Mirage13 is no exception. Started by two sisters, "Brick" and "Pike," their sound evokes memories of the best alt-rock and punk of the 90's. If you were a child of that era (like I was) then you'll feel your hair stand on edge as you hear their renditions of Seven Nation Army and The Kids Aren't Alright. Then they'll show their deepest side with their single, Nameless. Go check them out! Oh, and the intro music this week? Their track, "Nice and Perfect."

Oh, and his soothing voice is part of Daniel Kharlas’ VRcadia.

Any day a comedian is on the podcast you know it’s going to be a rockin’ good time. It was with Carrie. I expected our talk to center around comedy. We explored far beyond just that topic. From style to how to work a crowd, it turns out that having some comedy skills is essential for life. Oh, and we talked about Pokemon and toys from the 90’s. Thank you Carrie!

We covered so much ground on this podcast. With Dance Dance Revolution as our start line, we explored personas, what it means to be a musician, how Kayne West is so damn successful... and honestly, way more than that. Alex is a fascinating individual, and unbelievably talented. Talented. Key word, folks. He assembles music live before your ears. That's talent. Go check him out.

Cheron Kovacs is Your Canadian Sister, a mother, an author, and all-around beautiful person. She has been on a journey of self-discovery, describing it as, "the best trial of her life." She is a teacher of self-love. We talked about our own journeys, explored parallels, the idea of fate, standing alone, keeping an open mind, and how to navigate the many twists and turns life throws our way. Along the way, Cheron has overcome many trials, including separation from her husband. Finally, her journey from Zimbabwe to Canada... well, I won't give away too much. Go listen!

It's my first time interviewing a real-life fairy! I only thought they existed in, well, fairy-tales. Amanda Miknev is The Fairy Pod Mother, and she is making the world a better, more inclusive place.

Ray is such a unique person. Her style, music, and mind are all in perfect sync with each other. After over two hours of conversation, I feel like we've got more to cover. We got to talk all about mindfulness, music, and control over your own mind and your own life. Plus we got to talk about psychedelics and Elon Musk.  Finally, the idea of personas, Carl Jung, and the shadow-self got explored. This episode is full of thoughts, and that's the way I like it.
