Game Changers Episode 7: Gord Downie of The Tragically Hip

Send us Fan MailGreetings PE Nation!Ever wondered how a simple trip across the border can turn into a memorable adventure? Join me as I take you back to my youth growing up near the Canadian border in Buffalo, New York. From concerts to baseball games and even a wild post-college trip to Toronto, my experiences highlight the connection to Canadian culture that I developed over the years. I'll also share my embarrassing tale at the border!But this episode is not all fun and games. I pay tribute to the late Gord Downie and The Tragically Hip, a band whose music has left an indelible mark on me. Despite not being Canadian, I found a profound connection in their lyrics and performances, especially after Gord’s passing on my birthday. You’ll hear about my obsessive music tendencies, the emotional impact of songs like "Ahead by a Century" and "Bobcaygeon," as well as a personal invitation to explore Downie’s work and the documentary "Long Time Running." Take a listen and let me know what you think.DaveLeave a review: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-supersized-physed-podcast/id1435115135Email me at [email protected] I'd love to hear from you!My website: https://www.supersizedphysed.comFREE E-Book: https://supersizedphysed.us18.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=289486a5abf1f1b55de651a5e&id=4c476cb01My TPT store with Task cards: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/SupersizedphysedSupport the show-High Fives and Empowering Lives  book available as an ebook or paperback-Paperback or download: HERE-Amazon Ebook: HERE
