    Tanya Mathivanan is no stranger to taking on interesting theatre choices and today she returns to talk about her next play 'The How and The Why" We get into how the show came about, what it's like putting science on the stage, the relative lack of generational exploration in theatre, and how...

  12. 257-Carolina and Kari-Educators

    This week I'm joined by two guests: Carolina and Kari, both of whom do work in and around education. We go a little big picture, trying to define what makes an educator, who has influenced them, and of course, can anyone teach?

  13. 256-Joe Planta-Podcaster

    Joe Planta has been doing podcasts since before you even knew what podcasts were. Now, fifteen years in, he talks about why he keeps doing it, why he'd like to stop, and some of the things he's learned over his tenure talking to people. There's some great moments with iconic Canadians as well,...

  14. 255-Christine Quintana

    Today I sit down with notable independent Vancouver theatre-maker and actor Christine Quintana. Christine always has a lot of things on the go so we talk about writing, writing grants, where it all started for her, and how theatre needs to change. You can keep up with all her work here:...

  18. 251-Evan Dunfee

    Some of you may remember the story of a Canadian race walker in the 2016 Rio Olympics who had a chance to appeal for a bronze medal but instead chose to let his opponent have it. We go into all the particulars of that race but also discuss the realities of training, being an athlete for a living,...

  19. 250-It’s Okay To Celebrate

    It's easy to focus on what you're not doing but today I'm talking about the other way- and there is one! Also some new music from me tacked on at the end.

  20. 249-Courage

    God, it's hard to admit to being courageous, isn't it? So let's do the work!

  31. 238-The Monday Show

    I'll be honest, this is kind of just a series of rambles as my heart and brain recover from some long and deep chats.

  32. 237- Mark Antczak

    I've had a lot of conversations with Mark Antczak about mental health and counselling because he's been wrapping up his Masters of Counselling program.

  33. 236-I’ve Been Thinking A Lot About

    Bit of a brain musings this Monday Show. Heh, what else is new?

  34. 235-Understanding Society with a Sociologist

    Like a lot of people, I'm kind of at a loss as to what is going on in the world right now. Society seems to be headed down a dark path so I recruited my friend Neil, a sociologist by trade, to help unpack how crowds and masses work.

    That old proverbial question: how exactly do you feel? This episode is brought to you by overthinking.

  39. 230- Betroffenheit Revisited

    Riffing on the theme of trauma and dealing with stuff, I take a look at the show 'Betroffenheit,' which deals with trauma and addiction (and recovery). The show is a pretty visceral experience and I'm trying to connect some dots about how we talk about (or not) our suffering. For a small taste of...

  40. 229-Monica Hamburg-Comedian

    Three years ago to the day, Monica Hamburg appeared on our first live show to talk about Craigslist, comedy, and parents. She's spent time in New York nervously trying out open mics and has now settled in Toronto. As she tells us, the nerves are still there but so is the endless mine of comedy...

  43. 226-Emma Middleton is Lois Lane

    The last time Emma was on the show she talked about her journey into acting and trying to land some roles in television and that sweet, sweet advertising world. Well since then, she's done both.

  44. 225-Travis Dudfield-Leaving Religion

    Not every religious person hears the call to the seminary, for Travis, the call was something he desperately wanted. What follows is a story of searching for God, power, sacrifice, 9/11, and of course, the Church scandal.

    A bit of a potpurri today on the show, talking current events, brain stuff, and some updates from Netflix land

  46. 223-Justin Gaar is Tired of UFOs

    About a year ago, Justin Gaar made a film about a guy who sees UFOs and it became something of a cult hit on Netflix. But the road from there has been rocky, including a fallout with the subject of the film, a really bizzare encounter with Tom DeLonge, and the quest for a new direction. We also…

  47. 222-The Havana Show

    Coming to you from under the covers (for better sound) in Havana, Cuba, it's a belated Monday Show! I've got some things on my mind and a secret mission to the centre of the heart and mind and connectedness. Just give it a listen, will ya?

    A lot has gone on the few months that People Doing Things has been off the air but the most promising thing, is that the ricj=h and powerful misogynists are beginning to fall like dominos.
