This is an Atlantic Canadian focused podcast that will feature topical and culturally interesting discussions and interviews concerning the region. This region of Canada includes the Maritime provinces (Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island [aka PEI]) and Newfoundland & Labrador. The style of the podcast could be described as a "kitchen gab".

Today on the podcast I’m going to try something a little different. First off, the topic for today’s discussion will be all on the Bluenose II. However, instead of having a guest, I thought I’d take a crack at this one myself. I was once a bit of a tour guide for the Bluenose II during the rebuild of the vessel, and then later as a crew member, it’…

I mean, I don’t mean that I am still going outside to build a tree fort with my brother, but rather just general activity outdoors. So much of our lives…

Of the 2200 people on board, over 1500 people lost their lives that night in the cold, ice ridden Atlantic. This makes it one of the largest maritime d…

This will be a cultural podcast based in Atlantic Canada. The style of the pod cast should be classified as a kitchen table gab. That is to say, we will do our best to be accurate, but this will likely be more of an anecdotal approach to subjects. Some topic ideas to look forward to would be historical subjects, (like the Springhill mining disaster…
