009: Melba Seto - Owner of Bowness Soapworks

Part of what makes doing the show so much fun is all the interesting people that I get to talk to. It would be hard to find somebody more interesting than Melba Seto.

She just happens to be the first in what I hope to be a recurring feature on Your Neck of the Woods where we showcase and amplify local business owners.

006: Sonya Sharp - Ward 1 Councillor

Well, we're back after our break for the holidays and they couldn’t be more glad that we record the show indoors because Your Neck of the Woods has been dropped in the deep-freeze the last couple of weeks. For our first show back, Jason and I had the pleasure of chatting with a once political rival in the form of Ward 1 Councillor Sonya Sharp. Sonya graciously took some time to come on the show and talk about what her priorities have been in serving as your Councillor up here in Northwest Cal...
