In this episode, Leigh McGowan (I am Politics Girl) sit down to hash out this Mark Twain quote - "I didn't have time to write a short letter, so I wrote a long one instead.”  She and I are in the new business of writing only 'short letters' and saving democracy.

You can find her everywhere - I am Politics Girl (twitter, tiktok and everywhere podcasts air)

In this episode, Abe and I discuss the lesson we learn from being 'othered' - starting with the Holocaust and ending up in the battle we all face today against such extreme views and dictatorial policies.  'We must never forget' applies to everyone facing a level of hate and persecution that if gone unchecked will always end in violence.

In this episode, I jump into the dangerous and painful waters of divorce.  Is it them?  Am I a magnet?  Why didn't it work?  How could they leave?  

The real questions - What did I seek out?  What wasn't healed in me?  Why didn't I draw healthy boundaries?  Who am I?

In this episode, I talk about the existence of ChatGPT and its impact on education, critical analysis and the new art of cheating.  Will it destroy education or will it prove that memorizing dates and names never really served a purpose anyways?

In this episode, Danisha Carter and I sit down to do a deep dive into nepotism, favours, back room deals and the art of making connections.  All of which proves the illusion of the meritocracy.  The best don't always rise to the top...let's stop pretending they do. 

In this episode, I explain just what a 'nepo baby' is and why is the entire free world up in arms over an age old reality that impacts every single walk of life.  Are we simply so mad at celebrity culture and the money they make that we are going to through everything at them and accept no responsibility of our own human nature??  

In this episode, I count down my top 10 Christmas movie must-sees.   I'll make you laugh, cry and find the true spirit of Christmas.  Try to guess my top three before getting there and put your guesses in the comments below.  Ho Ho Ho.

In this episode, I will stroll down Christmas Past and reveal the three Christmases that have made me into the person I am today.  Grover, Commodore 64 and Cabbage Patch '84 build the framework of all the lessons learned.  There was no cinnamon used in the production of these memories.

In this episode, I travel back 35 years in health care and follow its progression through the eyes of a nurse.  What's changed?  What role did different governments play?  How has the subtle manipulation of nursing staff led to the crisis of health care we all face?  And, what do we need to do about it?  I begin with my first steps taken towards my mom's head nurse...

In this episode I take a field trip to the Biltmore (downtown Oshawa bar) to meet up with famed Canadian pop star Ria Mae.  We discuss all the important things - the battery water she drinks, her love of a vegan restaurant she can't remember the name of AND the power that music has to  change the world (that last one might be the most important - but let me know what you think
