Here's me and my good friend Iban, calling in all the way from Barcelona. He's one the friendliest and interesting people I've known.
We enjoyed catching up, and I hope you enjoy getting to know him too!

Iban Anglada is my Catalan friend from Barcelona. We attended Athol Murray College of Notre Dame in Wilcox, Saskatchewan, and we hadn't seen or spoken to each other since 1994. Growing up in Barcelona, one wouldn't expect him to be a lifelong hockey fan and player, but he somehow managed it, and that's what brought him to Canada.
He was a great guy to know. We lived in the same dorm, but he had a knack of making friends from all over the school. I was very happy to see that he hasn't changed at all!
We talk about what it was like growing up in Barcelona, his travels and work career, our shared friendships, and how we hope to see each other again really soon. I hope you enjoy this as much as we did!

Ted Uchacz is a good friend of my university and tree planting days. He's made a career in nursing, but his passion lies within the arts.
He is an accomplished sculptor, working in the mediums of clay and metal, usually at the same time. He often uses reclaimed metals to create his works, including his latest series using discarded discer blades from local farm machinery.
Having been juried by the Saskatchewan Craft Council, you can find his works at the SCC Fine Crafts Boutique in Saskatoon and the Traditions Handcraft Gallery in Regina, and elsewhere.
Ted's a great guy and I really enjoyed catching up with him. Check us out or, better yet, check out his art on the following websites or on Instagram.

Michael Couros is a good friend of mine I met through the insane world of political social media. He's a political commentator, a part-time radio show host on CKOM and CJME, a one-time ring announcer for the Sask Rush lacrosse team, and a man with a knack of pi***ng off the right people.
We discuss his recent (and wise) exit from Twitter, the current political divisions in Canada, and how the ancients understood us better than we understand ourselves.

Andrea with the Bangs is a vintage fashionista and a fascinating interviewer. Her YouTube channel and She Wonders Why podcast features conversations with some of the leading personalities who are exploring the interactions between religion, psychology and culture. We namedrop a number of these people, including Jonathan Pageau, Paul VanderKlay, Benjamin Boyce, Sean Carroll, Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick (host of Amon Sul and The Lord of Spirits podcasts, among others) and the incredible Neil DeGraide of Dirt Poor Robins.
We also talk about reading the Bible in a Year, raising kids, the role of the feminine in both myth and culture, and how to produce a viral YouTube video (hint: make an ambiguous statement on Jordan Peterson).
She's always been a fun and engaging conversationalist, and this discussion is no exception. It was a blast!

Billie Rae Busby is one of my favourite artists. Her hard-edge painting technique has created some incredible striking abstract images of the prairie skies and mountain views that surround her home of Calgary. In addition to her work being featured in galleries and exhibitions across Canada, she has been commissioned to produce works of art for the public, including public murals and street installations, as well as a specially created carpet installation at Canada House, home of the High Commission of Canada in the United Kingdom.
Billie and I talk about our shared experiences from our time at the University of Saskatchewan, her transition from a marketing and communications professional into a full-time artist, as well as the role of producing her art has contributed to her mental wellness.

Depression is a hell of thing. One day, you are feeling fine with everything figured out, and the next, you find yourself in a deep, dark well with no way out.
My friend and neighbour Corey has been fighting depression for a few years now. The journey he's been on has been extremely difficult on him, his family and others around him. He's also a really terrific guy that I'm happy to call my friend. The strength and endurance he has shown during his difficult times has been admirable.
In this episode, we talk about the journey he's been on, including the manic highs and the insufferable lows, the things he's tried to battle those demons, the forgiveness of self, and the love he has for his wife and kids.
In short, this might be the most important episode I've done.
If you're suffering from depression and need to talk to someone, please let me know. I'm here to talk anytime.

Connie Herman is a parenting coach, the coordinator for Nobody's Perfect Parenting Program in Saskatchewan, and the founder of Parenting Potential. She's also a friend of mine who happens to be doing great things in ensuring parents have the proper tools to help raise their own kids.
As parents, we're blessed with the most wonderful creatures the world can provide. Unfortunately, Mother Nature does not bless us with an instruction manual on how to care or these creatures. People like Connie are an amazing resource for parents as well as for other parent coaches. The success of her program, Nobody's Perfect, has recently been recognized by the World Health Organization for their work in parental mental health, positive parenting, and support for early learning. Connie was also instrumental in getting this program online during the COVID pandemic, to great success.
After we catch up on old times, Connie and talk about some of the tools parents can use to help their kids, such as stress recognition and emotional regulation, modelling behaviour, and the role of fathers.

Ludovic Piejos is a bon vivant. Working in finance during the daytime, he's been involved with more extracurricular activities than pretty much anyone I've know.
We met in our local Toastmasters club, where I got to learn about his upbringing in France. He also served us crepes. Since then, instructs newbies on French pastries and Caribbean cuisine at The Local Kitchen restaurant, he dances salsa competitively and teaches Latin dance, trains for fitness at a kickboxing school, and he's a runner. He's also one of the friendliest, most social people I know.
We talk about his various activities, about his family, and dealing with stress and anxiety during COVID. He's just such a pleasure talking with him.
