I'm a former professional hockey trainer turned professional country music singer and I've picked four people to interview from 3 different areas in my life (personal, sport, and music) that I think most people will find interesting, inspirational, and motivating. The interviews of these four initial people showcase many of the inspiring experiences, successes, and advice that they have for the listener. In turn, I ask each of my guests to recommend a single person that they feel have a story that needs to be told... that the world needs to hear from ....someone that I need to be talking to. Each guest will be connected to the last by the final question of "Who should I be talking to?" and we will see if there truly are six degrees of separation if and when they all intertwine as the episodes reveal themselves.

    Episode 34 - Joe Vickers - Singer/Songwriter from Drumheller Alberta

    Joe Vickers lives in seasonal rotation. In the summer he is an Alberta grain farmer and when the snow falls he hits the road as a storytelling folk singer. The travelling troubadour has logged countless miles touring across Canada and the USA as the front man for folk punk group, Audio/Rocketry. As a solo artist he has backpacked across Europe with a guitar in tow, playing everywhere from all-night bars to punk squats, travelling by whatever means necessary - from camper van to train or hitchhiking. Over the years, Vickers has shared the stage with traveling artists of a similar mind, such as Trampled by Turtles, Chuck Ragan, The Strumbellas, The Rural Alberta Advantage and Elliot BROOD.

    Episode 33 - Dean Stott - Former British Special Operations and Current Cycling World Record Holder

    Episode 33 - Dean Stott - Former British Special Operations and Current Cycling World Record Holder

    Dean Stott is a world-leading security consultant. From corporate assignments to UHNWIs, he has delivered bespoke security solutions at all levels, for clients including governments, presidents and royal families. He is renowned for his willingness to take on any job, no matter how dangerous – and for being the man who will go where others won't. As a result, he has successfully dealt with extortion, kidnapping, civil war, pirates and military coups. In 2014, he single-handedly evacuated the Canadian Embassy in Libya, rescuing four diplomats and 18 military personnel. For as long as the world remains volatile, Dean Stott will deliver unrivalled security expertise.
    Dean was one of the first army soldiers to make it through the gruelling, six-month Special Forces selection process to join the Special Boat Service (SBS). The next stage of his military career took him to some of the world’s toughest and most unwelcoming places – hostile environments in which his life and the lives of others were constantly under threat. This real-world experience, in tandem with his elite Special Forces training, is what enables Dean to do things that terrify normal people. Today, he continues to live by the Special Forces ethos: The Unrelenting Pursuit of Excellence.
    In 2016 Dean began training for the biggest challenge of his life. His plan was to cycle the entire 14,000-mile length of the Pan-American Highway (PAH), the longest motorable road in the world. There was just one problem. Despite his long military career and proficiency with a huge range of vehicles and weaponry, he had never cycled more than a few miles. But Dean believes in the ability to adapt to new challenges; in having the confidence to overcome the insurmountable. Together with his wife Alana, he prepared to do more than just complete the ride. He was going to do it faster than anyone had ever done it before. 
    He passed through 14 countries on his expedition, cycling for an average of 10 hours per day. He experienced extreme terrain from the Atacama Desert to the mountains of Alaska. He even rode through a tornado. In the final stretch, he rode for 17 hours and he covered 340 miles on his longest stint.
    In May 2018, he completed his journey, gaining not one but two world records: the fastest person to cycle the length of South America and the fastest cycle journey of the Pan American Highway. With his final time of 99 days, 12 hours and 56 minutes, Dean smashed the former world record by 17 days and became the first person ever to make the journey in under 100 days.

    Episode 31 - Front Man of Two Hours Traffic and Solo Artist/Songwriter Liam Corcoran chats about the music industry, touring, and life in general.

    Episode 31 - Front Man of Two Hours Traffic and Solo Artist/Songwriter Liam Corcoran chats about the music industry, touring, and life in general.

    Two Hours Traffic was a Canadian indie rock band active from 2000 to 2013. Hailing from Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, the group were performers of power-pop songs. Core members included Liam Corcoran (lead vocals, guitar), Alec O’Hanley (lead guitar, vocals, keyboards), Andrew MacDonald (bass, lead guitar), and Derek Ellis (drums), with Nathan Gill (bass) replacing O’Hanley in 2011.  Their fourth album, Little Jabs, was short-listed for the Polaris Music Prize. The band held a farewell tour before disbanding in 2013.  Since then, the group has reunited occasionally.
    Each of the band members has since moved on to other musical projects: Corcoran pursues a solo career and plays with The Express; O’Hanley is part of Alvvays; Gill is part of North Lakes and Baby God; and MacDonald and Ellis are part of Golden Cinema.


    Solo career
    Following his ensemble experiences with Two Hours Traffic and The Express, Corcoran has developed his career as a solo artist. Although his material continues to exhibit the catchiness of pop, it has grown in other different directions. His debut EP Rom-Drom can be neatly categorized as alt-country, but Nevahland, his first LP, is a stylistically-complex blend of rock, pop, indie, hip-hop, and alt-country. In March 2020, Corcoran released his latest album, Giving Tree and Other Songs ー an album split into two parts: simple acoustic songs and more elaborately-orchestrated songs, each with their own flavour including punk, rock, alt-country, lo-fi, and indie-pop.[ His first two releases also feature extra-musical themes: Rom-Drom explores separation from a distance, and Nevahland tells the story of three couples fleeing an oncoming disaster.  Liam has a 9 song solo album debuting 7 July 2023!


    Personal life
    Liam Corcoran works as the Program Manager for Holland College’s School of Performing Arts (SOPA). He has also worked in other branches of education, notably co-writing a song with students from Prince Street Elementary School. In recent years, Corcoran has become a father and husband; this is encapsulated in his album Giving Tree and Other Songs which reflects ideas of domesticity and fatherhood.  Corcoran is a cousin of songwriter and former Hey Rosetta! member Kinley Dowling.

    Nick Doneff was born in Fort Erie, Ontario and has called Prince Edward Island home since 2013.

    The Charlottetown-based musician and songwriter has become a staple within PEI’s musical landscape by way of his earnest songwriting, laid-back demeanour, and singular approach to the guitar.

    Doneff is a musician’s musician; he is a past recipient of MusicPEI’s Musician of the Year award and occasionally works onstage with some of the island’s finest acts, including Tara MacLean, Liam Corcoran and is a member of indie rock band Two Hours Traffic.
    Doneff released his sophomore LP, The Late August Days, in November of 2021. The 9-song album boasts contributions from Jim Creeggan (Barenaked Ladies), Mickey Raphael (Willie Nelson), Dave Haskett (Shawn Mendes), Catherine MacLellan, Union Duke, Aaron Comeau (Skydiggers), Blair Packham (The Jitters), and more.

    “I listened in the back of the room and I noticed that the room was stone silent. You know, a packed bar hanging on his every word - you don’t hear that very often... So as soon as the show was over I bought a CD from him because I realized you needed to hear this, too.”
    - Tom Power, CBC “Q”
