This week, it's an all-Valentine's episode. Kate has love in the pioneer Highlands while Paul has a a light look at how Canadians have tended to have a more laid-back attitude about Valentine's Day then maybe some other countries where it's seen as a time to make grander more extravagant demonstrations of affection. Maybe it's the influence of our British origins?

This week, Kate is back with more love & romance stories from pioneer Haliburton County. Makes one wonder what she has up her sleeve for next week with Valentine's Day coming up. Plus, Paul has the story of the founding of the Hudson's Bay Company that recently folded after 355 years of existence - making it historically the world's longest living corporation. It goes back to two French fur traders that had an idea for a start-up that would simplify the collection of furs in early Canada, and how the idea was spread to investors in London's coffee houses.

Haliburton County recently hosted a fur trapping workshop and it got Kate thinking about historical fur trapping when it was more significant in the community. Plus, Paul went down a rabbit hole thinking about all the kitschy "world's biggest" road side attractions that were part of road trips when people starting driving the roads on family vacations. For example there's the world's biggest lobster, the Big Apple, and many more. And, of course, the refrain from the back seat - are we there yet?
