A Life That's Good Phil Main

I explain this in more detail in the podcast but I was ... am terrible at math. So, it shouldn't surprise you that this is episode 66 of 65 ... actually 66 1/2 but at this point who's really counting anymore.



I've had Peter on my list as one of the people who has made (and makes) life good since the planning stages of the pod and I just couldn't let it go without having a quick chat with him. He's someone who once upon a time, encouraged a goofy kid and changed his life. I'm that kid btw in case you're wondering.



He's a guy who has made a lot of people's lives good through his more than 30 years doing morning radio in London and in working for charitable causes and being a kind and supportive soul.



We hope you enjoy our epilogue for the podcast. Be sure to listen to the end for what's next!! :)

What happens when five radio people walk into a studio? You get the longest episode of the series!



A look this week at a most rewarding career. An hour of radio talk: how it was, where it is and where it's going.



This is an episode I'll listen back to someday when I need a reminder of just how good life can be. We laughed, we cried, we were/are grateful.



My heartfelt thanks to the four very special people who took time for this very special reunion.

One of the things I've come to love about this podcast, is when we have people on who I think I know a bit about, only to discover that my understanding of their lives barely scratches the surface.

Herb & Sherry Marshall are two such people and they join us this week to chat about a couple of places that we believe are an integral part of the fabric of Canada's prettiest town.



The Park House, iconic and full of great stories, is the oldest building in Goderich. We'll also talk about another pretty "old" building, moved and refurbished, with tales of its own, Beach Street Station.



Both have a very special place in Milli's and my heart. We had our first actual "date" at Beach Street and dinner there just prior to my proposing a couple of years later on the beach, which of course is right there in the restaurant's front yard.

Thankfully, one of the things you could still do during the covid shutdown a few years ago was go for a drive and/or hike and that lent itself well to Milli's and my shared interest in nature photography.

One of our earliest adventures was to Point Clark to watch a sunset from the historic lighthouse. We were really taken with the beauty of the lighthouse itself and of course, nothing beats a Lake Huron Sunset.

This week on the podcast we're going to learn more about the historic lighthouse, it's history, what it was like to be a lighthouse keeper, winding the light and more, including the "Secrets of the Back 40."

Amy Irwin, Economic Development Officer for Huron Kinloss is our guest.

Golf is one of my favourite pastimes although I don't play nearly as often as I'd like too and maybe for that reason, I don't play nearly as well as I'd like to ;) It can be social or not, it's great low impact exercise and it's something you can do at almost any age.



In this episode, a chat with Gary and Lynne Gravett who owned and operated Goderich Sunset Golf Course for many years. It's probably the course I've played most in my lifetime whether with friends or in any one of many charity golf tourneys.

I've had a personal fascination with history most of my life and it was always a favourite subject in school so I'm pretty excited to chat with David Armstrong, President of the Huron County Historical Society.

We will chat about the many ways that we, here in Midwestern Ontario, have been made by our history.

We'll discuss the Society and what they do, our Indigenous and European roots, some upcoming historical anniversaries, some must see tourist destinations in our area along Tiger Dunlop, John Galt and were the plans for Guelph and Goderich really mixed up?
