  • The Financial Tool Too Many Canadians Don’t Know About: Understanding RDSPs
    2026/08/21

    What if there was a government supported savings program designed to help people living with disabilities build long term financial security, and you had no idea it existed?

    In this episode, we sit down with Lila Day, Financial Advisor with Edward Jones, to break down the Registered Disability Savings Plan, who qualifies, how the grants and bonds work, and where families may be missing opportunities.

    We also go beyond the account itself and talk about independence, housing, long term planning, and the bigger question many families face: how do you create financial security for someone you love?

    If you or someone you know may qualify for an RDSP, this is an episode worth hearing.

  • Vancouver MLB, Condo Bailouts, & the Strait of Hormuz
    2026/08/14

    In this 27-minute episode, we tackle three stories making headlines locally, nationally, and around the world. First, we discuss Vancouver’s push to bring Major League Baseball to the city. Could Vancouver actually support an MLB franchise? What would the ownership and stadium model need to look like, and is Mayor Ken Sim’s latest push a serious bid or some well-timed election-year politics?

    Next, we look at the proposed federal and provincial plan to purchase up to 2,200 unsold condos across the Greater Vancouver Area. Could buying distressed inventory help create affordable housing while supporting future construction, or does it amount to a taxpayer-funded bailout for developers? We also ask whether that argument changes if governments purchase properties at a significant discount or through foreclosure.

    Finally, we turn to the ongoing crisis in the Strait of Hormuz. Has the U.S. backed itself into a strategic corner? What options does President Trump have from here, and what leverage does Washington actually have to get one of the world’s most important shipping routes fully reopened?

  • Eby Slips, Pre-Sales Falter, & BC Place Debate
    2026/07/30

    In this 20-minute episode, we tackle three stories making headlines across British Columbia. First, we discuss Premier David Eby's declining poll numbers and ask what's driving the shift in public opinion. Is it growing concerns over pipelines and the economy, or has the fallout from DRIPA and recent court decisions changed the political landscape?

    Next, we discuss the growing number of buyers attempting to walk away from pre-sale contracts. What rights do developers have, what risks do buyers face, and could this become a bigger issue as market conditions soften?

    Finally, we touch on reports that the Province may be open to selling BC Place Stadium. After investing roughly $170 million to prepare the stadium for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, does selling it now make financial sense, and what could it mean for the future of the Vancouver Whitecaps?

  • SPECIAL EDITION: Can the Canucks Finally Get It Right? Draft Day, Trades, and the Future of the Franchise
    2026/06/24

    The NHL Draft is one of the most exciting times of the year for hockey fans. Every pick could become a franchise player, every trade could change the direction of a team, and every fan base convinces itself that this is the year everything finally comes together.

    In this SPECIAL EDITION episode, Christian and Jordan dive into the Vancouver Canucks, the NHL Draft (which is coming up in a few days!), the prospect pipeline, offseason priorities, trade rumours, and what the organization needs to do to take the next step.

    We talk about the Canucks' biggest strengths, biggest weaknesses, whether the team is truly built to contend, and what realistic success should look like over the next few seasons.

    We also discuss some of the biggest draft successes and disasters in franchise history, the pressure of drafting in a Canadian market, and why fans always seem to fall in love with prospects before they've played a single NHL game.

    No insiders. No hot takes for the sake of hot takes. Just two lifelong hockey fans talking Canucks, the draft, and the future of the franchise.

    If you've ever celebrated a draft pick, questioned a draft pick, or spent way too much time reading prospect rankings, this episode is for you.

  • Is Vancouver Real Estate Back? What Buyers and Sellers Need to Know
    2026/06/13

    What does a $1 million loss look like in real life? One North Vancouver family just found out. In this episode, we go deep with a veteran real estate agent & insider, James Wang, who is currently carrying 10–12 active listings across one of Canada's most turbulent housing markets.

    We get tactical: why one-bedroom condos are essentially unsellable right now, and how a single inspection turned into an $80,000 negotiation win. No fluff. No forecasts dressed up as facts.

    We also go uncomfortable... sellers who priced with hope and landed in reality, buyers swinging lowball offers like sledgehammers, and the honest answer to the question everyone's afraid to ask: are we actually at the bottom?

    If you own property, want to own property, or have just lost money on property, this is required listening!

  • The Questions Top Producers Ask (Part 1)
    2026/05/29

    We think strategy is complicated. It isn’t. It’s a handful of uncomfortable questions almost no one takes the time to sit with. So we did... on each other.

    Inspired by Tim Ferriss’ "17 Questions That Changed My Life”, we run a live experiment: constrain the game and see what breaks, what bends, and what stands out as essential.

    If you could only serve 1,000 clients for the rest of your career, who are they really? If you had just two hours a week to work on your business, what would you do? The answers aren’t slogans; they’re operating systems.

    From the mortgage desk (Jordan) and the agent’s side of the table (Christian), we trace how small actions create outsized leverage, how narrowing the target clarifies, and how priority compounds into results. Think of it as a field note on focus: a simple set of questions, tested in the wild, with practical moves you can use before the week is out.

  • Are the Whitecaps Leaving?
    2026/05/12

    In this episode, we’re joined by Ciaran Nicoll and Mike Perzel, presidents of The Vancouver Southsiders and Rain City Brigade, for a candid discussion on the future of Vancouver Whitecaps FC and the very real possibility of the club leaving Vancouver.

    Ciaran hints at a local ownership group actively exploring a bid to buy the team and shares details about a little-discussed potential site for a soccer-specific stadium.

    We unpack the pressure being applied by Major League Soccer, why the Whitecaps remain financially vulnerable despite their success on the pitch, and what losing the club would mean for the city.
