Women In Media ·

2023/06/25

I'm lucky to have a special relationship with Allison Russell; although her career is skyrocketing right now, she remembers where she comes from and as an early supporter of her solo work, she's been so kind to always make time for me.

2023/06/12

I first met Dr. Pamela Palmater (online) via our work together on SiriusXM’s Turtle Island Talk Series created for The Indigiverse, CH. 165. As a team, we were looking to integrate some new and active voices into the rebranding of what was previously Canadian Indigenous Peoples’ Radio (eye roll). Pam came on as a host of the series and she came with so much knowledge! I felt like I learned more from her in a few short hours working together than I had in years.

Jully Black: Just the Beginning

Women In Media ·

2023/03/06

Let me start here: Jully Black was nominated to come on this podcast by Cynthia Loyst BEFORE NBA All Star Weekend when she performed HER version of the Canadian National Anthem. What beautiful timing, eh? This interview also happened a few days after she shared an unfortunate e-mail she stumbled upon. There was a lot to cover…I especially loved hearing about how she found community as a young woman in the music business, and how she’s paying it forward to create community for others now. I hope you

If you’ve been following along on my social media accounts over the years, you’ve seen a fair bit of this week’s guest. She was my first friend in Kingston, Ontario when I moved away for my first full-time radio job.

You’ve heard the voice of today’s guest on a previous episode where she participated in a panel recorded live at the CCMA Awards weekend in Calgary - but no doubt, we needed AT LEAST an hour to cover off her brilliance, if not more. Funny story; I had no idea I was already connected with Morgan through e-mail. Truth be told, I thought she was an Indigenous dude from what I could tell through our servers. I was communicating with 'MJ' to recieve a weekly Indigenous Music Countdown from NCI FM, a
