Tim Black is truly one of the most adaptable and well known hosts of Canadian radio.  It was an absolute privilege to have him pop on for a conversation about his amazing life and career. He has met, and become friends with some of the county&apos;s most talented musicians and has overcome obstacles throughout the years that would make most people throw in the towel. His strength, perseverance, and heart are just a few of the qualities that make Tim not only an amazing father, husband, and radio host, but someone I&apos;m proud to call a friend.

Q and U

S2 E3 Tim Black

From the prairie town of  Dauphin, Manitoba to the booming city of Johannesburg, South Africa. Dave Major is an old friend who has travelled, quite literally across the world to help create a better one for the farmers, students, and people of the country he now calls home. His company, Buffalo Bicycles has revolutionized basic transportation in Africa by enabling farmers to get their goods to market more efficiently, students to be able to travel to classes, and workers to seek out employment that may have been simply too far away by foot. A simple idea, but an amazing story of entrepreneurship and philanthropy which is nothing short of inspiring. Check out www.buffalobicycle.com to get involved, or to donate and help change the lives with a simple item we all take for granted... a bicycle.

Jason Gobeil is a father, a friend, and a contemporary voice in the First Nations community who is helping men navigate through this crazy ride called parenthood while keeping culture in the forefront and guiding fathers into the future while preserving the traditions of the past.

S2 E1 Jason Gobeil

Jason Teale is a long time friend. We&apos;ve known each other for over 20 years, and worked together a lifetime ago.He&apos;s a Brandon boy who has been living and teaching in South Korea since 2003 and is a brilliant photographer. He has his Masters in Education, and his photos have been featured in National Geographic. He also hosts The Sajin Photography Podcast, which inspired me to start my Q and U Podcast. I was fortunate to be able to catch up with him, discuss how the pandemic is being dealt with in Korea versus here in Canada.I was absolutely blown away to find out that in an area, roughly the size of Manitoba, with a population of over 51,000,000 people, they got this under control far quicker, and with far less restrictions than we have dealt with.

Provincial Restrictions vs Personal Responsibility

KC, or Kelsie, as I know her is the morning host on Pure Country 101.1.  She is an absolute ray of sunshine behind the mic, and our city is incredibly fortunate to wake up to her voice everyday.She and I go way back. In fact, we once lived together roughly 15 years ago. We get into a bit of everything including the pandemic, consumption of massive amounts of food in public, life coaches, and the uncanny ability for men to shut their brains off at will.She&apos;s bubbly, she&apos;s loud, she&apos;s the first "lady" to grace my Podcast, and it was such a treat to catch up with her.

Chris Latcham is hands down one of the most adaptive financial advisors in our city. He has seen his share of ups and downs in the financial world over the years, and has helped his clients navigate through them. The past 15 months has been, undoubtedly, one of the toughest times for anyone to be able to plan for their future. Luckily, Chris has the uncanny ability to see the light at the end of the tunnel, and can help get people onto a positive path when it comes to their financial well being.

Calculated risk in uncertain times

Dan Aberhart has been a friend, a client, and we have been each other&apos;s soundboards for years. His insights into the human experience has sparked an abundance of conversations in my chair, and I look forward to our visits every month. To have him on my podcast, and not have to cut our talk short to get to my next client was a BLAST! His company Aberart Ag Solutions is taking farming into the next century with revolutionary products that help the people that feed us do it less negative impact with less chemicals. The way he markets it absolutely intriguing, with content that literally sucks me into a world I don&apos;t understand, yet can&apos;t stop watching. We dive deep into health, motivation, farming, and healing ourselves by taking responsibility for ourselves.

From putting an offer on your first home to retiring in your condo, real estate can be confusing, so I brought on two absolute pros in the industry to answer YOUR questions about the biggest purchase you may ever make!  I jumped on the opportunity to bring in Laurie Brugger and Bill Nicholls from Century 21 Westman Realty Inc. to answer the questions YOU sent me to ask! These two are veterans in real estate, and are my mentors in my journey as a real estate agent.

Tyler Glen has been on air for over 30 years, and many of us have started our days to his incredibly entertaining voice on our way to work. Tyler has been, and will forever be part of the fabric of our community, and is one of the most recognizable voices in radio.It goes without saying that I was pretty fired up to have him here for his first "on air" appearance since retiring from his morning show on 94.7 STAR FM. He&apos;s great friend, a long time client in my chair, and one of the friendliest, genuine people I&apos;ve known. From parasailing, to the pandemic... it&apos;s one hell of a conversation!

My friend Chris Thomas pops by to talk about his journey from a simple idea to a business that, in my opinion provided countless restaurants across the country with a lifeline during one of the toughest times in economic history. I&apos;ve seen his business evolve from day one, and I am so blown away by his drive and commitment, that I absolutely had to have him on to share his story.  

From the Dash to the Feast

My friend Dale McKay joins me from Canada&apos;s largest First Nations Community to reconnect, discuss life in this crazy pandemic, and let me in on what it&apos;s like being in law enforcement during such an insane time.

Bannock and Borscht

HERE WE GO!!!After 2 decades behind the chair as a barber, and a lockdown that literally knocked the wheels from under all of us, I realized what I missed most about my time behind the chair... the laid back conversations, life lessons, and inspiration shared in that barbershop, so I&apos;m bringing the most interesting people and stories from my chair to the Podcast world!!!

Q and U intro

Business, family, health, relationship advice, life lessons, and incredible stories. Being a barber for over 20 years, I've learned how powerful my chair has been in turning frowns into smiles, changing doubt into motivation, and connecting with people from all walks of life. Conversations without boundaries... the way it is meant to be. Talking, listening, and trying to make sense of this mess we’re all navigating through called life.
