  • More on Feelings and Frequencies

    Send us a text

    CC and Val continue the discussion on human consciousness as measured on a frequency scale developed by Dr. David R. Hawkins. His seminal book, Power vs. Force, lays the groundwork for our new understanding of how people can rise above discomfiting feelings and situations. And CC shares a family feel-good moment.

  • Consciousness = Frequency...?

    Send us a text

    Wherein CC and Val introduce the scientific research and results of Dr. David R. Hawkins' groundbreaking work in the field of kinesiology and human consciousness.

  • Click Bait Nation

    Send us a text

    CC and Val discuss the public fascination with "clicks" on social media and their own experience with the dopamine "hits" provided by posts that took off last week. This prompted a discussion about the reasons why they decided to start  podcasting in the first place, and why they're also now videotaping their weekly podcast. And CC gets unexpectedly emotional. It happens.

  • P Diddy Doo Dah

    Send us a text

    Wherein in CC and Val talk the underbelly of human nature and the systemic abuse issues which exist in almost any industry, not just music and entertainment. It's about power and control. And money. And it ain't a new story - simply a continuation of a very old one. Join us on Oct 1 for this, our first video podcast recording, at: https://youtu.be/C5yZKff9Rt4

  • Awfulizing

    Send us a text

    Wherein CC and Val talk (again) about our human tendency to take a future worry and wrap it up in even worse scenarios. Wayne Dyer labeled it "awfulizing". "And if this happens, then that might happen, and then..." We're all guilty of this. But why? Why do we do it?

  • Grounding: "Take Your Shoes Off"

    Send us a text

    Wherein CC and Val discuss the value of grounding and its association with the root chakra: what it is, what it means, what it does, and how it benefits us. Along the way there are detours, as usual, like what Val's mini-me looks like. And our need for, attraction to, and connection with trees and the soil itself. It's all connected.

  • Aging: The Pros and Cons

    Send us a text

    Wherein CC and Val talk aging, the pluses and minuses, the good, the bad and the ugly. From wrinkles, to dribbles, to hard-earned wisdom, it may not be a pretty journey -- but it can be a beautiful one. At least, that's what we're told. If we stay present.

  • Our Best of and Bloopers

    Send us a text

    Wherein CC and Val ruminate on the first forty episodes of Loose Ends and share some of our favourite moments - the ones that made us laugh the hardest or struck home or provoked tears. On this Labour Day, join us for some insights and belly laughs as we say farewell to summer.

  • Say Wha-a-t?

    Send us a text

    Wherein CC and Val banter about words and phrases and their origins. From contronyms like "bolt" and "cleave" to idioms we toss about idly, such as "tying the knot" or "beating around the bush" or "giving a cold shoulder", if you like to laugh while you learn, enjoy this episode. We sure did.

  • One More Time...with Enthusiasm!

    Send us a text

    Wherein CC and Val try to recreate our previous episode on enthusiasm that CC screwed up. This one turned out different. What with a full moon, a superman at that, as well as the first night of the DNC in the States and the enthusiasm around Kamala Harris, we get quite philosophical about the notion of enthusiasm -- we had stuff to say! As did Kali, who joined the discussion. We got excited. Blame the moon.
