  • The Thrift Store That Builds Houses, with Sara Cooper

    The Thrift Store That Builds Houses, with Sara Cooper
    Jun 17 2026
    Most people think the ReStore is for contractors picking up spare lumber. Sara Cooper is here to tell you it is a full department store where your ten dollar lamp helps a family buy a home. Sara is the CEO of Habitat for Humanity Ottawa, and this conversation goes well beyond thrifting. We talk about the circular economy, reuse culture, and why affordable homeownership is an upstream solution to a housing crisis that is pushing ordinary Canadians to the edge. Including a woman and her young son who were living in an uninsulated trailer on her sister's property before Habitat stepped in.I do not have the cover art yet as I'm waiting for her headshot but will drop it in here ASAP Learn more about your ad choices.

  • She Mailed a $1 Million Cheque to the CRA on Purpose, with Emma Davis

    She Mailed a $1 Million Cheque to the CRA on Purpose, with Emma Davis
    Jun 5 2026
    Emma Davis didn't grow up wealthy. She married a guy whose startup got acquired, and suddenly found herself on the wrong side of her own values. So she did something nobody does: she mailed a personal cheque for one million dollars to the Receiver General of Canada, marked it as a gift, and waited. Nobody called. Emma is a member of Patriotic Millionaires Canada, a non-partisan organization of wealthy Canadians lobbying loudly for the government to tax them more. We talk about the mythology of tax flight, why philanthropy can never replace policy, and what happens to a democracy when wealth becomes political power Learn more about your ad choices.

    Swipe. Bet. Repeat: Sports Betting, Fan Culture, and the Slippery Slope We’re Ignoring
    Feb 6 2026
    Sports betting is everywhere, and it’s changing more than just how we watch the game. In this episode, I sit down with filmmaker Deborah Wainwright, director of the documentary Swipe. Bet. Repeat., to talk about the rapid rise of app-based sports betting, how it’s reshaping fan behaviour, and why athletes are increasingly becoming the face of wins, losses, and even threats.We dig into how betting apps have blurred the line between fandom and gambling, why prop bets have shifted the psychology of watching sports, and what happens when money turns players into investments. We also talk about why Deb chose to centre women bettors in the film, what she learned about community and risk, and why the idea that “the house always wins” still holds true.If you’ve ever placed a bet, thought about placing one, or wondered how this all got so big so fast, this conversation will change how you watch your next game Learn more about your ad choices.
