The healing power of fitness goes far beyond physical benefits—for today’s guest, it’s a form of self-expression and a celebration of what the body can do. In this episode, host Nora McInerny sits down with fitness personality Ivylis Rivera, who shares her deeply personal journey of navigating life with Chronic Migraine while holding onto her passion for movement. Ivylis opens up about the struggle of staying active while facing the fear of triggering a headache or migraine attack and the resilience it takes to keep pushing forward—a resilience that carried her through the challenging journey of finding a Chronic Migraine treatment plan that worked for her. Join Nora and Ivylis as they explore the concept of “soft living,” a philosophy Ivylis embraces—staying active, listening to your body, and building trust in oneself.

This week on Canada Is Boring, we're diving into the wild, punch-throwing, referee-tackling life of Billy Coutu – the first (and only!) player to be banned for life from the NHL. From humble beginnings in North Bay, Ontario to becoming a bruising defenseman for the Montreal Canadiens and Boston Bruins, Coutu left his mark – it wasn’t just fists and penalties; there was drama, scandal, and a full-on riot to cap it all off.

The Skylight Caper 26:47

26:47

On the quiet Labour Day weekend of 1972, three masked men executed a daring heist at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts. Scaling a tree and slipping through a skylight under repair, they descended into the museum, subdued the guards, and made off with 18 paintings and 39 pieces of jewelry—valued at $2 million at the time, making it the largest art theft in Canadian history.Among the stolen works was a rare Rembrandt landscape, along with pieces by Delacroix, Rubens, and Millet.Despite ransom negotiations and extensive investigations, only two items have ever been recovered, and the culprits remain unidentified.

Yep, you heard that right—furry, dam-building rodents made the menu for pious Canadians looking to stick to their fasting rules. How did this happen? Why did 17th-century Catholic clergy decide beavers belonged in the same category as salmon?

Before the Trump name was synonymous with real estate and politics, Friedrich Drumpf—grandfather of U.S. President Donald Trump—was building a fortune in the wild frontier of the Yukon Gold Rush. In this episode, we trace his journey from a small German village to the treacherous mountain passes of Canada, where he discovered that mining the miners—through saloons, hotels, and brothels—was far more profitable than panning for gold.

In this episode, we dive into Pierre Poilievre’s so-called Common Sense Questionnaire —a form that’s less about gathering opinions and more about reinforcing his party’s narrative. With leading questions and manipulative phrasing, this “survey” feels more like a tool for ideological conditioning than genuine outreach. Is this just another political stunt, or is Poilievre taking a page from the psychological playbook of cult-like persuasion? Let’s break it down and see what’s really going on.

Before Elon Musk was attempting to coup, his grandfather, Joshua N. Haldeman, was busy stirring up political trouble in 1930s Canada. This week, we explore how Haldeman went from chiropractor to outspoken leader of the Canadian technocracy movement—a radical political group that thought democracy needed to get phased out so an elite group of engineers and scientists could seize control of the entire North American continent. We’ll break down his unconventional beliefs, his clashes with the government, and how his racsit ideas ultimately pushed him to leave Canada and start fresh in South Africa.
