This week's guest, Aidan stops by and shares about his life. He talks about the violence he experienced when the Calgary police attacked and assaulted peaceful protestors and students May 9th, 2024. We are sharing some of the photos of his injuries taken directly after being released. We talk about his life and the journey which brought him to activism. Thank you Aidan, don't ever stop standing up for what's right.

Welp, 2024 is over and now what... 2025!? Darcy and I try to turn our frowns upside down with a year end episode. We do talk about loss and the awfulness of some humans in our world. We also talk about something neither of us have had in plenty this last year. Hope. Opportunity to work harder on ourselves so that we can be of more use to others in our daily lives. Whomever we may encounter. Happy new year, take good care ❤️Thank you for all of the support and love

This week, Jasmine stops by to share their journey into and within their life of recovery. She could not imagine a life without drinking and using, as that was her modelling as a child. She believes that her life would always be like the lives of her family. Her mother was a victim of the 60's scoop and we learn that every step the government took to eradicate her family, led her to recovery. She has been sober for 6 years and works hard everyday to be of use to other humans. Thank you Jasmine, we appreciate you and all of the work you're doing in our communities. End genocide

This week Darcy and I sit down to approach our emotions and thoughts about so many things happening within and without us. We recognize that, as we talked from our point of privilege; genocide is happening across our planet. Colonial powers attempt to tighten their grips in several countries not their own. Trans Rights are being taken away in private, silenced government rooms. Local activists are being harassed by police daily. Our government with the help of state financed thugs, is making and defending a world of darkness for so many. We are still angry. Trying to process the pain and inviting you to share in that with us. Maybe you're feeling that heaviness too. End genocide.  Land Back - Free Palestine! 

This week's guest, Kenna Burima stops by and shares her incredible journey into advocacy and activism using her art and creative energy. I won't try and tell you that we have a linear conversation because neither of us are linear thinkers. I think she is a bundle of love and positive, healing energy. After sitting and chatting with Kenna, I also recognize someone who has survived and is trying to turn that pain into love for herself and others. There's something about humans trying to change the world and create space for everyone's liberation. There's nothing perfect about us humans and that is our gift if we can remember as we engage with others. Thank you Kenna, we appreciate you!

This week, Karla Marx stops by and shares her beautiful journey. She has been involved in activism for about ten years and is a beautiful, talented performer. An hour with Karla could never do them justice, as you will find out when you listen. I appreciate your work in our community and your continued pursuit of equality for all humans. We are incredibly lucky to have you out here standing up for yourself and others. Recognizing that we can never be perfect, but being willing to grow and change is what we really need.

This week's guest, Abir, stops by and shares her incredible journey through this life. She shares her family's journey from the Middle East in the 90's when Islamophobia and xenophobia was really hitting its stride across the west and even the east. We talk about the Canadian dream and the emptiness felt when folks realized they traded one form of militant idealism to another. Canada is something else and we examine some of the niceties presented before arrival to the stolen lands where we now reside and live. Thank you for your openness and vulnerability Abir, we could have talked all afternoon! Sending you and your family love.

This week, Jon stops by and shares about his life. We talk about many parts of his life and look at the current situation of our fellow suffering humans across the planet. That is how we met in fact, gathering to support folks, who are demonized in the western media. This of course allows us to explore and condemn the history of racism, the Crown and the Canadian government have created and perpetuated within the very system they call humanitarian. We discuss the Canadian government's complicity in national apartheid to this day! We appreciate you dude, all the love!

This week's guest and one of our favorite humans ever, Taylor Dumais stops by and shares about their incredible journey. She is the president of Sacred Turtle Women's Healing Centre https://www.facebook.com/share/NWeY4YPqUvQVB3xD/ and is a part of the great, growing movement across Turtle Island returning us to the guidance of grandmothers. Thank you for sharing your light with us, we appreciate you so much.

This week, Darcy and I sit together and talk about turning 50 and the continued, escalating genocide against Palestinians and so many others in our world, as I write this. We share about grief, loss, change, aging, police violence, racism and our provincial government, and the general feeling that everyone is on simmer and soon there'll be some kind of catastrophic event. We as usual, just run wild on some topics and in that process we move through different stages of our lives... Thank you all for your support
