    CVW ep. 17 - Will Novak Be The New Fed?

    Hello, hello! ¡Hola! We're on the fifth episode now! Alright, no more U2 references. This episode really shows my mixed feelings on Novak's (more likely than not at this point) claim of the Tennis Kingdom. He has done so many great things to bring him to where he is now, but he will never be recognized as the same, dominant player Federer or Nadal was due to his being behind the two for so long. Most of his big accomplishments are coming close to what appears to be (but hopefully isn't) the end of their primes/careers, and it takes a lot of the wind out of the sails knowing how close it was to two legendary players who are just starting to turn towards their later stages. His career record across all tournaments and surfaces against them started off poorly, but his longevity has allowed him to overtake both head-to-head career records. He has now won all the majors multiple times where Fed and Rafa are one Major short (Fed - Roland Garros; Rafa - Australian), but he lost his "primetime" matchups ('07 USOF - Fed; '09 USOSF - Fed; '10 USOF - Rafa; all RGF - Rafa;) when both players were still considered either prime or on the rise. Djokovic did have great years once the double digit years came around ('10-'19), but it was largely him capitalizing on Fed and Rafa upsets or injuries. What does help show that all 3 are incredible tennis players and humans too, neither Fed nor Novak have won a Roland Garros title against Rafa. No matter what, I'm not necessarily excited about Djokovic being the new "Title King", but I definitely respect what he does and what he's had to go through to get here.

    CVW ep. 12 - Oui Hab to Leaf Now - Cam's Varied Week

    Sir Lake Ontario reaped his karma on me this past week through the French Open's unreadable draw, online gambling services declining my money, and a first round that has made my love for clay only that much more peculiar. David Goffin gives himself up to another Italian boy in the first round, he can't even wait three days like a classy broad. Luckily, he is not lonely at all! 13 total matches (of the 42 that had been played before filming started) were incorrectly called by me, and more (10) followed in the remaining round! I should be thanking the fact that I can't gamble, but I love the thrill too much to be appreciative. My top choice has shifted from Nadal to Tsitsipas because the upsets favor Stefanos' side more than the Nadal/Federer/Djokovic power-half of the draw. Aslan Karatsev has a fairly open draw as well, but I don't think he's as under-the-radar as he was at the Australian Open. The NHL Playoffs also added to my list of stressors by dragging the Maple Leafs to a Game 7 they were less than excited about, which featured a Carey Price who could've stopped the zamboni going through its doors the way he was playing. The Habs will try to help Carey Price more in the next series, but somehow Winnipeg can only beat teams above them so it could be a very French spring.

    CVW ep. 11 - Sure-Footing, Sleep, Solid Ground: 3 Keys to Staying Alive - Cam's Varied Week

    Got a little dark in this week's(?) episode, it was with the best intentions possible though. A local man suffered a tragic accident in an area where (and during a time when) I usually go for walks, but the only given article gave a vague recollection that left the poor guy in a bad light, as far as trying to survive goes. He fell into the harbour at a little after 8 in the morning, had a female jump in and attempt to help him, a donut buoy was thrown at him, and the authorities showed up within ten minutes, all on a fairly clear morning (weather-wise). I have no idea what else happened to him other than he didn't put the help to use, but I do know the woman made it out alive. The article does say he went under the dock at one point without saying whether or not that was intentional, but the way the fire chief handled the interview made it seem more accidental than purposeful. Much like me, he was probably a little unsure of what went wrong. I also had a fire drill at 2 in the morning before shooting this, so I vented a little about that situation as well. Biggest takeaways from the episode are swimming lessons (ESPECIALLY if you don't like water), swimming lessons (ESPECIALLY if you live near large bodies of water), swimming lessons (ESPECIALLY if you don't think this man had sufficient help), and definitely the three from the title.

    CVW ep. 10 - Red Pill/Blue Pill, But With Cookies! Ya Know? - Cam's Varied Week

    Have you ever thought it would be fun to drug someone, but then be super responsible about how you go about dealing with the drugging? Because I sure have! And I thought, depending on whether or not I can come up with the right activity, I could make that into a pretty interesting episode/experience for people. It's definitely still in its early stages, but I think 'Good Cookie/Bad Cookie' might actually be a good idea. I also briefly discuss the NHL Playoffs and what I think will happen in the Finals (and so far so good!) but mostly I talk about why I have been baking so much. It's no life-threatening issue, or really even health-threatening hopefully, but I have always struggled to put/keep weight on. It used to be because of picky eating, but it has slowly just revealed itself to be a crazy-high metabolism. It was never much of a problem, but because of a restricted budget thanks to Covid, I have had to limit my food budget from what it used to be. It was mostly an issue of not being lazy and choosing to make my own meals rather than eat out and ration the food over meals, but then the diet sans take-out was too lean so I burned any fat/weight off as soon as the weather warmed up. There was also a (not so) healthy mix of alcohol in my diet for a few years before Covid which helped me hold a bit of weight, dropping that was a metabolism booster if I've ever had one. Now it's levelled itself out, just in time for lockdown to go away! Hopefully I can maintain this! Wanna see the weight differences, check out my YT (I don't have drastic 'Before/After' pics, but the 'Ladies' video was around 115/120 lbs compared to this one at 130)! Thanks for listening, and stay tuned for episode 11 coming today/tonight (already on YT, but I slept in and have to go to work so who knows if it'll go up now)!
