2018 was a pretty action packed year and 2019 might even be more so. Take a listen to what I think you can expect in 2019.

Joined once again by the ferocious Phil Rafalko to put an end to this long overdue midterm talk. During this episode we not only talked about the midterm elections but what the future holds for America as a result of the midterm elections. Of course, it wouldn't be an episode with Phil if there weren't some off topic tangents... and beatboxing... Enjoy

Phil Rafalko joined me today to talk about why halloween sucks and the midterm elections. In this episode however, we went off topic many times. Talking about the Munk Debates, Steve Bannon, the effectiveness of protesting and so much more. The banter is endless, so listen and enjoy.

Canada is about embark on one of the biggest social experiments that this country has ever seen. This of course is the legalization of marijuana.

There are no real words to describe Andrew, but there are a few things that come to mind; writer, cigar aficionado, traditionalist, and most recently a carnivore.

On this episode it was a pleasure to be joined by the very articulate and informative Nick Pateras who is Vice President of Growth for Lift&co, a media and tech company that informs Canadians about every facet of the cannabis industry (https://lift.co/).
