The Tipping Tipping Point, Alberta Astronaut Dr. Shawna Pandya, and Stampede Midway Food

Are you at your tipping ‘tipping point’? A recent survey from “Point of Sale” company Lightspeed, has found a whopping 77 percent of Canadians are fed up with auto-tipping prompts on payment machines. Is tipping out of control and how have attitudes towards tipping changed in recent years? We discuss with Bruce McAdams, Associate Professor, School of Hospitality, Food, and Tourism Management at the University of Guelph.    Next, an Edmonton doctor is set to be the first Canadian woman to become a commercial astronaut aboard Richard Branson’s “Virgin Galactic” rocket! We meet Physician, Speaker and Astronaut Dr. Shawna Pandya, and hear her personal story, of what led her to this “out of this world” adventure.   Finally, ten days of Stampede also means packing on an extra ten pounds as you eat your way across the Midway. So, what do you eat first and is it all as good as it looks? We get some ‘tasty’ suggestions of what to sample from Mark Neustaedter from the ‘Calgary Stampede Concession Committee’.
