RamsayWrites Mini-Casts Bob Ramsay

Bob Ramsay, the Toronto writer, has a unique take on the world that will have you saying: “Hmm...I never thought of it that way.”
Twice a week, he tackles the political and personal issues of the day. Everything from craven politics and unchecked ambition, to secret sauces, bitter loss and fist-pumping redemption. They’re stories to live by – quirky, high-style, tear-jerking, funny ha-ha, sometimes funny peculiar. In fact, his blogs don’t walk down the sidewalk and browse in the windows. They sneak into alleyways and come out onto different worlds. Alex Brown narrates each mini-cast to bring it all to your ears and imagination.
RamsayWrites mini-casts are written by Bob Ramsay, voice by Alex Brown, and produced/edited by Kyle Fulton.
