    How Long Do We Have Left? The Uplifting Death Predictor App

    Jann, Caitlin & Sarah catch up about Caitlin’s search for a new home, summer activities in Iceland, and the excitement surrounding the World Cup. Caitlin fills us in about the ranch dressing craze among European soccer fans, and the commercialization of the fan detested hydration breaks.  Jann also invites app developer Travis Weniger to discuss his app, Memento Mori. It predicts life expectancy based on various health metrics while blending the philosophies of stoicism and longevity. The conversation delves into the importance of recognizing life's finiteness. Travis shares insights on how discussions about death can lead to a more fulfilling life, and the importance of balancing enjoyment with health-conscious choices. The conversation explores mortality, and the importance of living meaningfully. More About Travis Weninger: Travis Weninger is an independent product designer, developer, and writer based in Toronto. His work explores the intersection of technology, philosophy, and intentional living. After spending nearly a decade working in the tech industry, he left the corporate world to pursue his own path and founded socialdotgood, an independent software company focused on building thoughtful consumer products. Through socialdotgood, Travis has launched six apps, with Memento Mori being his most ambitious project to date. Inspired by Stoic philosophy and the ancient practice of reflecting on mortality, the app is a meditation on one’s mortality paired with contemporary research on longevity.

  12. Alan Doyle and The Smiling Land

    05/12/2025

    Alan Doyle and The Smiling Land

    Jann Arden speaks with beloved singer-songwriter and best-selling author Alan Doyle about his new book, The Smiling Land, his love letter to Newfoundland. They discuss the cultural significance of Newfoundland, the influence of music and storytelling, and the connection to Viking history. Alan shares his experiences of touring, writing, and the unique charm of Newfoundland, making it a central character in his works. More About Alan Doyle: Alan Doyle is a Canadian musician, actor and writer. His albums as a solo artist and as front man for the Newfoundland Celtic-rock band Great Big Sea have sold over a million copies. He has starred in such features as Ridley Scott's Robin Hood and CBC's Republic of Doyle. He has written three books, Where I Belong, published in 2014, A Newfoundlander in Canada, published in 2017, and All Together Now, published in 2020, each of which were national bestsellers. He has recently co-written and starred in a box-office-breaking stage musical, Tell Tale Harbour. Alan lives in St. John's, Newfoundland. Few Canadian musicians are as synonymous with their home province as Alan Doyle is to his—and even fewer once worked as tour guides. In The Smiling Land, Alan reprises his tour-guiding role to welcome the rest of Canada to his home and take readers on an adventure: a freewheeling road trip through Newfoundland, its history, and its culture. From Fogo Island to the Southwest Coast, Labrador to Ferryland, and everywhere in between, Alan's Newfoundland awaits you. https://www.penguinrandomhouse.ca/books/612283/the-smiling-land-by-alan-doyle/9780385694414 #ASKJANN - want some life advice from Jann?

    From Prime Suspect to Scene of the Crime: Lynda La Plante’s Criminal Empire

    Jann checks in from Iceland, Caitlin shares her rollercoaster trying to buy a new home in Toronto, and Sarah announces she has joined a legion ahead of a very special guest! Prolific crime author Lynda La Plante shares her journey from childhood plays to becoming a legendary crime writer and television producer. She shares insights on writing, character development, her challenges in the industry as a woman, and her ongoing passion for storytelling. More About Lynda La Plante: Lynda La Plante was born in Liverpool. She is the author of over forty novels, all of which have been bestsellers. She trained for the stage at RADA and worked with the National theatre and RSC before becoming a television actress. She then turned to writing - and made her breakthrough with the phenomenally successful TV series Widows. Lynda's original script for the much-acclaimed Prime Suspect won awards from BAFTA, Emmys, British Broadcasting and Royal Television Society as well as the 1993 Edgar Allan Poe Award. Lynda is an honorary fellow of the British Film Institute and was awarded the BAFTA Dennis Potter Best Writer's Award in 2000. In 2008, she was awarded a CBE in the Queen's Birthday Honours List for services to Literature, Drama and Charity. Lynda La Plante is the first layperson to be awarded an honorary fellowship to the Forensic Science Society. In 2020 she launched the acclaimed Listening to the Dead podcast with former CSI Cass Sutherland, exploring forensic science and its impact on solving crimes. https://lyndalaplante.com/books/ #ASKJANN - want some life advice from Jann?

  15. Recall: Max Kerman from Arkells

    11 de mar. ·  Bônus

    Recall: Max Kerman from Arkells

    Arkells frontman and now author Max Kerman joins the show to speak about his new book ⁠Try Hard: Creative Work in Progress⁠. Jann asks Max about his creative process, the importance of persistence in the arts, and how to navigate the music industry. Max and Jann reflect on true artistic enthusiasm and positivity in creative pursuits, as well as the importance of networking and asking for opportunities. Max also touches on the intricate balance between the creativity and the financial aspects of being an artist, the challenges of navigating social media authentically, and the importance of community engagement. He reflects on the future of music as artists age, the significance of self-reflection, and the impact of their songs on fans. More About Max Kerman and Try Hard: Max Kerman is the frontman of the multiplatinum, award-winning touring band Arkells. Try Hard is his first book. Let’s say you see a familiar musician from a globe-trotting, touring band hanging out at your local coffee shop, reading the newspaper and typing away on his laptop. This doesn’t look like a musician at work. He seems approachable enough, so you ask him what exactly he does all day. With a grin on his face, he admits the job might not be what you think. So you take a seat, and ask him every question you’ve ever had about how it all works: the nuts and bolts of writing a song, preparing for a show, marketing a band, and the day-to-day business of a creative life. With each answer—none of it about talent—you realize this musician is a bit of a…try hard. And the mystery of being a creative person isn’t actually mysterious at all: it’s just exploring ideas with an enthusiastic and determined curiosity. Over and over. Max is that musician in the coffee shop, and this is what reading Try Hard feels like: one-of-a- kind tales from a dynamic frontman, and a companion to your own creative work in progress. With a brick-by-brick attitude, Max explores his own growth in the craft of storytelling and performance, the pleasure to be found in collaboration, and the creative spirit required in sharing your art. *Photo by Nathan Nash* ⁠Buy Try Hard: Creative Work in Progress⁠ ⁠https://www.arkellsmusic.com/⁠ #ASKJANN - want some life advice from Jann?
