We had a great episode with Clayton T Stewart a few years ago. In honor of him and keeping his memory alive, and because miss the guy, here is a rehash of when Clay came on to talk Harry Houdini.

Colin Hay was in one of the biggest groups in the world Men At Work. But it is his solo career that intrigued me the most. Let’s take a listen to the album Going Somewhere, one of my favorite albums of all time, my warm blanket and cup of hot chocolate on those cold and lonely nights.

Matthew Budoloski and Dustin Leader from Leaderhouse join the show for a rich and celebratory dive to discuss the band and it's history. From the earliest days, Matt and Dustin’s connection generated a spark that shaped Leaderhouse’s sound, identity, and approach to music.

We dig into the full origin story:

• How Matt and Dustin met and how the band formed

• How Christian and Scott came aboard

• The “Leaderhouse Five” era — including the brief but memorable involvement of Remy Shand

• The musical influences and organic evolution of the band’s sound and their ties to the Blue Meanies.

We also highlight the creation of their album, produced by Christian’s father Norm. From Christian's age, D — the sessions captured the authenticity and interplay that defined the group. Dustin’s soundscaping, Matt’s melodic sensibility, and Christian's youthfulness shine throughout.

We also touch on what the members pursued after Leaderhouse:

• Matt transitioning into Volume

• Dustin moving on to craft new sonic ideas in Projektor

The conversation expands into the nature of songwriting, the shifts in the music industry, the rediscovery of older music by younger listeners, how kids connect to songs today, and why authenticity continues to matter.

We’re joined by Brian Fergusson for a wild, nostalgic, and downright hilarious dive into our childhood in Shediac. From labor board battles and Bell service nightmares to lobster debates, lost fast-food icons, Kiss solo albums, cemetery donuts, and the infamous Halifax breakdown — this one covers everything.

We even unpack what REALLY happened the first time we met, how our friendship with Richard shaped our lives, and why Maritimers fly all the way to Winnipeg just to eat at Red Lobster.

As part of the Breaking series, Sean talks about David Lee Roth’s 1991 album A Little Ain’t Enough. This one had a lot of importance in Sean’s musical growth, exposing him to the other sides of Jason Becker and properly introducing him to Steve Hunter. While this album may have been during Dave’s decline commercially, it is definitely one of his best albums.
