Marcel opens up about what it takes to stay at the top for nearly a decade, how consistency has defined his career, and the mindset required to compete at the highest level in Canada and on the world stage. From hot saw mastery and springboard training to the pressure of national championships and representing Team Canada, this is a deep dive into the sport, the preparation, and the person behind the axe. The conversation also goes beyond competition.

Whiskey, History & Heart: Season 1 Finale at Ironworks Distillery | Episode 8

It's the Double Bitter Season 1 Finale — and co-hosts Ryan and Kim are going out in style.

But it wouldn't be Double Bitter without a little friendly chaos — Kim recaps her trip to Iceland, Ryan quizzes her on timber-sports trivia, and the two debate the eternal question: Would you rather use a dull axe or drink cheap whiskey forever? From Bigfoot theories to whiskey science, this finale captures everything we've loved about Season 1 — storytelling, craftsmanship, laughter, and a healthy pour of Nova Scotian pride.
