One day a kooky guy woke up and realized he knew very little about the world. Wanting to fix that, he started a podcast.

Simone Lovell - Simone Said F#&%
Welcome Simone Lovell, founder of Total Body Transformation in Vancouver, Canada. What began as a way to earn college beer money, has morphed into 25 years of helping people transform their lives through fitness, nutrition, and wellness.
Like starting your day right, any conversation that opens with breakfast is bound to be good. We also hit on strong modelling for our kids, quitting moments, curse words, figuring out who you are, and getting up on stage. Tons of energy and enthusiasm in this episode. Thanks Simone!

Yasmin Gandham - Loaded for BEAR
Yasmin Gandham, reporter for CTV News in Vancouver, joins the show today. She chats about her journey into broadcasting, that began with weather forecast drops into her Mom's voicemail as a kid. We also look at how to find good people to learn from, graduating during a worldwide pandemic, and those experiences that only come from being a recognizable face in the community. So much good stuff in here. Thanks for listening.

Dr. Sanjiv Gandhi - Medicine was the House
Dr. Sanjiv Gandhi, Second Deputy Leader to the BC Green Party, joins the show today. In our wide-ranging conversation, he reflects on a career dedicated to pediatric heart surgery, challenges in the current healthcare system, and his jump into the unfamiliar waters of provincial politics. We even detoured into his brief stop at culinary school this past year. Please pardon, the audio quality from minutes 25 - 28. I flipped to the backup file, learning that computers do not function well in direct sunlight. And a special guest named Kinje joins us for the back half of our interview.
Enjoy. Dr. Gandhi is fantastic.
