A little more backstory on Duncan before we get into the nitty-gritty. It's going to get a lot heavier as time goes on, so make sure to follow to keep up with the new videos as they're released. Full interview on my Youtube channel.

Meet Duncan, a former social worker who is homeless in Calgary. I'll be posting short clips from our interview over the next few days, but I recommend watching the full interview on my Youtube channel (link in bio)

How Peter would manage housing & treatment if he were calling the shots.
This is the last short-form clip I'll probably post from Peter's interview before moving on to the next one, so I'd like to ask you all if you have any questions for Peter that I can pass along if I see him again. The full interview is available on my YouTube channel if you're interested in seeing it.

Some more insight into the difficulties of homelessness in #Calgary from Peter.
I have one more short clip from this interview to post, but if you want to see the full interview it's available on my YouTube channel, which you can find in the link in my bio. After tomorrow I'll be sharing clips from a newer interview.

Peter alludes to the difficulties of getting off of rock-bottom when you've run out of resources.
I have just finished editing another #interview, which took me several hours in post-production to complete. It's currently being processed and I will post it and clips from it shortly.

Peter has a hard time sharing about his late girlfriend and the circumstances of her passing, which he believes is partly a result of inherited prejudism.

Just a short peak at Peter's motivation to keep on hustlin'. I am trying to put as much time as possible into processing new interview footage while scheduling different guests outside of my full-time job. There aren't enough hours in a day.
Please like this video so one day I can do this full-time and get as many people's stories out there as possible :)

Guilty by association, Peter Barch was left stranded
once again having lost what little he was able to
accumulate.

When you're homeless you tend to see a lot of the worst in people, as well as kind deeds in places you might never expect to find them. Do your best to be one of the highlights in someone's day.

I had to take down Jess's episode due to sections of the video having two separate audio tracks from different parts of the video playing simulatneously for some reason. I may re-upload ORRR I will use her interview as part of a larger project I have been working on for some time now

It's very common for people to say that all they need to do is stay sober, but I would like to invite you to consider the thoughts and emotions that lead to self-destructive behaviour in the first place, and consider the possibility that it could be much harder that one might imagine.

I've lost control - I can't even manage a toothbrush
As much support as there might be to help homeless people get off of rock-bottom, it's not as accessible as one might think. For starters, you need to make calls regularly, every single day to secure a spot in a detox or treatment center, so if you can't hold onto a phone, it's unlikely you would be able to make those calls in the first place. Holding onto a phone can be next to impossible when you're homeless because of how often they are stolen from people who often barely have anything to lose in the first place. Show compassion for those struggling, a little kindness can go a long way and have an impact greater than you might believe is possible.

***UPDATE***
I am making a creative shift on this project, which I believe will make it more engaging for the viewers, but consequently a much larger undertaking on my end. More updates to come...
