Why You Should Listen to This Episode: From an RCMP officer pedaling 1,200 kilometres for kids with cancer to a program tackling the gap between what a doctor can treat and what a person actually needs, this episode is about showing up for the people around you. Darren Karn takes us inside this year's Tour de Rock, and Bonnie Brown introduces SOS's new Social Prescribing program for isolated seniors in District 69.

This Episode Features:

(06:58) Darren Karn is a Port Alberni RCMP officer and former military policeman, two years into the job and this September one of the riders taking on Tour de Rock. Over two weeks this fall, Karn and his teammates will pedal 1,200 kilometres from Port Hardy to Victoria for Cops for Cancer, a campaign that's raised $58 million for pediatric cancer research since 1994. Karn's ride is personal: his sister passed away from cancer as a young adult, and he's training three days a week to be ready, paired with a junior rider named Ryker who lost his own sister to cancer. www.copsforcancer.ca

(17:42) Bonnie Brown, SOS's Administration and Client Services Manager, introduces Social Prescribing, a free new program connecting low-to-modest income and isolated seniors in District 69 with community supports, wellness plans, and resources. Delivered in partnership with United Way BC, the program pairs seniors with a community connector who builds a personalized plan addressing everything from loneliness to housing. Bonnie talks about SOS's new Seniors Gathering Place in Parksville, a free drop-in running Tuesday afternoons and Friday mornings. www.sosd69.com

Episode Quotes:

“My sister passed at a very young age. She wasn't a child. She was an adult, but she was still a very young adult when she passed from cancer.”

- Darren Karn, RCMP Officer, Port Alberni Detachment

“Instead of treating only symptoms with medication, social prescribing addresses root social needs like loneliness, food security, isolation, and a lot of other things.”

- Bonnie Brown, Administration and Client Services Manager, SOS

What happens when you bring the firefighters back for round two - this time against a 135-story fire from 1974? Too Old or Movie Gold’s Nanoose Bay firefighter panel returns for a second helping of Hollywood fire.

Host Olen Vanderleeden of the Comox Valley welcomes back Gen X panelists David Purcell and Mike Peters, plus third-generation Nanoose Bay Fire Department siblings Caitlin and Trevor Holme, for their second trip into the archives - this time tackling John Guillermin’s star-studded 1974 disaster epic The Towering Inferno, the story of a 135-story San Francisco skyscraper that goes up in flames on opening night.

The panel digs into a cast stacked almost to the point of absurdity - Paul Newman, Steve McQueen, William Holden, Faye Dunaway, Fred Astaire and O.J. Simpson among them - the shaky building-code logic behind the fire in the first place, and whether a rooftop water tank could realistically put out 50-plus floors of flame. They also settle a running debate from their last screening: does the fire department come off looking better here than they did in Backdraft?

The behind-the-scenes trivia alone makes this one worth a listen. The Towering Inferno made $200 million worldwide on a $14 million budget, making it the highest-earning movie of 1974 - beating out The Exorcist and Young Frankenstein - and picked up nine Oscar nominations. Steve McQueen did his own stunts and helped real firefighters put out an actual blaze that broke out on set, 49 of the film’s 57 built sets burned to the ground, and the building’s “computer system” prop was originally built as a 1954 missile-defense system that later resurfaced on screen in Independence Day.

“I love the disdain for fire. It’s like, ‘What are you bothering me for? I’m above that, I’m gonna be fine.’” - Olen Vanderleeden

“I’m really stuck, because I don’t think pure gold is the right word for this movie. But too old? I wouldn’t give it that either.” - Caitlin, Gen Z firefighter

Why You Should Listen to This Episode

If you have ever wondered what it takes to challenge deep-rooted norms and protect the most vulnerable, this episode is for you. Naomi Mwaura has spent her career doing exactly that - and her story is a masterclass in resilience.

In this episode:

Naomi Mwaura is the founder of Flone Initiative, working to build a safe, professional public transport industry in Kenya. Raised in a family of matatu owners and operators, she has spent her career tackling gender-based violence in transit, co-authoring a UN-Habitat guidebook on safer African streets, and speaking on the TED Global stage.

Naomi joins Cindy Thompson on A Resilience Project to talk about resilience through the lens of societal and cultural norms, and what it takes to challenge them from the inside. As founder of Flone Initiative, Naomi is working to build a safe and professional public transport industry in Kenya, tackling sexual harassment, and creating safe employment and education opportunities for women.

As one of the lead organizers of the #MyDressMyChoice campaign, Naomi helped mobilize thousands of women to protest gender-based violence in Kenya’s public transport. Her work has since expanded into transport safety projects across Egypt, Nigeria, Uganda and Tanzania, and taken her to stages including TED Global, the BBC and Al Jazeera. 

The Resilience Project is a Vancouver Island podcast hosted by counsellor Cindy Thompson, featuring conversations with authors, health professionals, community leaders and everyday people whose stories of resilience, healing and personal growth offer hope, encouragement and practical life lessons.

Too Old or Movie Gold host Olen Vanderleeden and Gen X co-host Matthew Stockton pull out a can't-miss dad-com: the 1987 Disney comedy Three Men and a Baby, starring Tom Selleck, Steve Guttenberg, and Ted Danson as three confirmed bachelors whose peak-'80s freedom gets upended when a baby shows up on their doorstep. Directed by Leonard Nimoy - yes, Spock himself - the episode brought in two new panelists for the ride: Gen Z guest Nicole and millennial guest Debbie, a mom of two who brought some very real parenting perspective to the conversation.

Despite a modest $11 million budget, Three Men and a Baby was the number one movie at the box office in 1987, out-earning Fatal Attraction, Beverly Hills Cop, Dirty Dancing, and even that year's Best Picture winner, Platoon, on its way to $167 million worldwide. Steve Guttenberg beat out Tom Hanks, Michael Keaton, John Travolta, and Bruce Willis for his role, and a casting call for 100 party-scene extras drew 5,000 women hoping to meet Tom Selleck. Siskel and Ebert gave it two thumbs up, and the panel's own guesses at the film's real Rotten Tomatoes scores weren't even close.

"I feel like it's impossible for a movie to not be a hit when it's Tom Selleck holding an adorable baby for 90 minutes".  - Nicole, Gen Z panelist

"I'm gonna say it's pure gold. Have a laugh, have some fun baby humor, and check out these three leading men from the '80s - they were great".  - Olen Vanderleeden

In this episode of A Resilience Project, host Cindy Thompson sits down with Kerri Cryderman, an executive leader in Saskatchewan healthcare, to talk about grief, leadership and what she calls a season of winter. In November 2019, Kerri unexpectedly lost her sister - her best friend and roommate - in a sudden, unexplained death in their family home.

Less than three months after returning to work, the COVID-19 pandemic escalated, and Kerri was asked to work from home - the very place where her sister had passed away. As an executive leader, she felt the pressure to be a pillar of strength for her team while quietly working through her own grief. Over the past year and a half, Kerri has navigated the loss of five close family members, completed a certificate in Executive Coaching at Royal Roads, and continued supporting her organization's pandemic response, all while learning what it means to grieve and lead at the same time. She shares how writing music became an unexpected outlet for her healing, and how her faith community with The Salvation Army has helped carry her through, alongside the comfort of connecting with family and friends.

On this episode of Nonpartisan Hacks, Parksville City Councillors Joel Grenz and Sean Wood sit down with John Jack, known in his own language as Sayaač̓atḥ, who holds two elected roles at once: Chief Councillor of the Huu-ay-aht First Nations, a modern treaty nation on the west coast of Vancouver Island, and elected Chair of the Alberni-Clayoquot Regional District.

Jack walks the hosts through what it took to design Huu-ay-aht's constitution from the ground up after ratifying a modern treaty in 2011: a legislative and executive branch fused into a single seven-member council, a hereditary leadership body he compares to “somewhere between the Canadian Senate and the House of Lords,” and a tribunal that functions as both an administrative appeals body and a Supreme Court. They dig into why BC's treaty landscape differs from the rest of Canada, from the Royal Proclamation to Section 35, and why Jack would rather build a relationship at the table than end up in court.

“The goal is boring,” Jack says of what good governance should aspire to - part of what he calls Huu-ay-aht's motto, “ancient spirit, modern mind.” It's a philosophy that shows up everywhere from hereditary leadership structures to his pitch for a standing, diplomatic-corps-style approach to First Nations relations at the provincial level.

Listen for:

• How Huu-ay-aht built a three-branch constitution, including a hereditary body that acts like a Senate

• Why the Huu-ay-aht Tribunal doubles as both an appeals body and a Supreme Court

• What makes BC's treaty landscape different from the rest of Canada

• Why Jack sees courtroom battles as an outcome nobody really wins

• Where consensus-based decision-making breaks down, using BC's forestry sector as an example

Dr. Taryn Marie Stejskal is widely regarded as the world's leading expert on resilience. Founder of the Resilience Leadership Institute, she draws on more than fifteen years of original research to reveal what separates people who bounce back from those who break down - and speaks candidly about her own experience living with dyslexia and post-traumatic stress disorder.

 Dr. Stejskal's empirically based framework, The Five Practices of Particularly Resilient People, distills over a decade and a half of research into practical tools anyone can use. In this conversation with Cindy Thompson, she shares the mindset shifts and daily practices behind that framework, and invites listeners to consider whether their own past experiences have quietly become obstacles to moving forward. Recognized as a leading global authority on resilience, wellbeing and mental health, her mission is to positively impact the lives of one billion people through the practice of resilience by 2030.
