Shaping what I am calling the current

Canadian Renaissance— the grassroots creation of a curious, awakening, and holistically informed Canada 2.0. 🇨🇦


You and me. Together.


With msome amazing characters and brand new friends from all eras, domains, and walks of life. From the past and now— forging new perspectives *together,* and shaping what I see as meaningful historic transition taking place… right now… during *our lifetime.*


It’s the Canadian Renaissance that I’m witnessing and chronicling, shared through our lenses of our evolving national identity and what Canada is meant to become in the 21st century and beyond.


I present thoughtful, novel, and critical considerations diverse perspectives about how we best move forward in these often difficult, fragmented, and dehumanized times by looking at our whole list of human experiences of our minds, bodies, spirits, and emotions.


This is a show for everyone, or anything (most certainly of the feline variety! 🐈‍⬛).


If you’re like me, you’re already a passionate explorer and what I call a ‘Postmodern Elder in thy hybrid reality’… awakening at a time of toxic and normalized fragmentation and dissociation (Gabor Maté, 2022).


Come unweave our myth of normal, and create something based on courage and love instead.


Interested in getting to learn more about our world in the ongoing, and exponentially growing digital-industrial revolution in the postmodern, globalized context?


I offer honesty, humour, directness, authenticity, depth, breadth, and democratic voice to Canadians like you and me.


I am a dealer of perspectives… throwing metaphorical (hopefully) spaghetti at the wall for fun; just to see what sticks— often to draw attention to the status quo for exposure, and to shake, rattle, and roll what so many of us call 'normal,' and to ask why we've normalized it.


I bring you books, literature, research, popular culture, shows, movies, and MUSIC through the lens of our evolving national identity by presenting and thoughtfully considering novel, critical, and diverse perspectives about how we may best move forward in these often difficult, fragmented, and dehumanized times… by looking in our own rear view mirror from time to time.


This podcast is a show for everyone who likes anything, and is interested in getting to learn more about our world in the ongoing, and exponentially growing digital-industrial revolution in the postmodern, globalized context.


🏴‍☠️Hop aboard, Mateys. The ship is nigh ready to shove off toward New Found Lands.


Leave yer bags behind, as treasures unknown to all of history await.. just for us to explore together… and what we’ll find we will bring back to share with others what we discover through time aboard our custom, 100% after-market, Canadian-built, eco-friendly “Canadian Friend Ship” I’ve built just for you, the Canadian Grit VIPs who all this is for. 🏴‍☠️❤️


All you need is a little imagination.


See you soon.

    Jamie Jackson sits down with renowned roast battle icon Tyler Morrison to talk all things comedy & Canada’s entertainment landscape: what it really takes to chase a dream, put yourself out there, & make people laugh.

    The conversation dives into economic & cultural obstacles for Canadian artists, riffing on Luc Rinaldi’s Walrus article with Skye Wallace: 📰 "The Death of the Middle-Class Musician".

    Canadian musicians are squeezed by low streaming revenue, touring costs, & a lack of sustainable support, threatening the very survival of full-time artistry: What kind of country do we want for our creatives? What happens when the middle class in music, and in comedy, disappears?

    They touch on rising costs in sports, local media, polarization, & the rise of politically incorrect comedy while keeping laughs rolling, packed with anecdotes & moments of reflection. Whether a die-hard comedy fan, an up-and-comer or just wondering what happened to your rock ‘n’ roll dreams—this is for you. 🎸🎧

  • Episode 4- The Wars for the Map: The Seven Years’ War, the Fall of Québec, & Ghosts of New France

    Episode 4- The Wars for the Map: The Seven Years’ War, the Fall of Québec, & Ghosts of New France
    2025/07/08

    Got a story? Want to reach out? Send us a text!

    ❄️ QUICK OVERVIEW:

    Stone ramparts, swirling snow, and two dying generals—Wolfe & Montcalm—set the stage for a contest that redrew the continent. From the Battle of the Plains of Abraham (1759) to the failed rebellions of 1837, we trace how maps inked in blood became the blueprint for a stubborn, still-unfinished country.

    🫵 KEY TAKEAWAYS

    1. Empires Collide: The Seven Years’ War was the world’s first global war; Québec was its pivot point. New France & Britain hash it out. Plains of Abraham. (not Lincoln.)

    2. Maps ≠ Meaning: When flags change, cultures don’t disappear—they go underground and wait. A nation is not a country. The notion of nation-state as modern country is introduced-- an organic concept of personal & collective identity as tied to the land --> "A house is not a home."

    3. Failure → Fuel: The crushed uprisings of 1837 planted the seed of Canadian self-government. Mackenzie King - Loyalists - Alliances

    4. Grit Lives On: Canada isn’t a finished painting; it’s a fire that needs tending—by us. Making connections to things seemingly long ago as we move toward understanding Canada in 2025 and beyond: Canada 2.0: Our Reformation

    🗺️ CHAPTER MARKERS

    0:00 — Frost, cannon smoke & the big questions
    7:48 — Plains of Abraham: twenty minutes that toppled New France
    18:22 — Treaty of Paris, living ghosts & stubborn habitants
    23:40 — Papineau, Mackenzie & the printers’ revolt (1837)
    32:55 — Fire → Frost: a spirit forged in endurance
    40:10 — Outro reflection & listener challenge

    🔍 REFLECTION QUESTION

    What do you believe in deeply enough to fight for, and what happens to a dream when its map is erased?
