Sad and the City Podcast

Well friends it has been fun. I'm sad to announce this will be the final episode of Sad and the City. Marisa and I hope that everyone has enjoyed our little project to help others while helping ourselves. Through this journey I have grown so much. From a pissed off transplant from Ottawa to a less pissed off local who enjoys a nice conversation and coffee at a local spot over scrolling through social media (If you haven't already noticed all of our social media accounts have been deleted). Get out, connect in person, connect in a conversation on the phone, hear the persons voice, feel their energy as you connect. As we did on this show. Now the final episode finishes as it started...with childhood friends sitting around the table having a conversation...connecting.Thank you.Love Always,Jay

If there really is a taller, more handsome version of Andrew Lizotte, then I don't wanna hear about it. I'd rather listen to our guest...he's funnier, guaranteed.

Marisa goes it alone with the questions and sits down with a SUPER special guest. Probably the best guest to date. Just sayin'.

I mean I could tell you how lovely Candace is as she discusses her life with mental health issues but I think the most significant thing is that this episode was released two weeks after the last one.....as promised. Go Me!

Marisa and Jay are back with the sweet and funny Leah Speller to discuss the ongoing work her mental health journey takes to stay on top of her mental health.

Marisa and Jay sit down with Isaac Towell to talk depression, anxiety, and drinking taking priority over EVERYTHING!!!

Marisa and Jay are back at it again in this welcome back conversation with a twist. They're outside. That's the twist. You find that out pretty much immediately, after the opening song.

Alright folks, this is the final episode of season one. What a wild ride from a shitty microphone in a den of my old condo to a less shitty but still kind of shitty microphone in the kitchen of my newish condo. We were lucky enough to make it on BlogTO and even luckier to have such amazing guests join us on our journey of growth and discovery. If you want to be on season two please reach out to Marisa or me anytime. We're gonna be way for on top of getting interviews lined up and I will actually edit and release them every two weeks. I have to. I even say it at the end of this episode.Peace Out.-Jay

Marisa and Jay sit down with their final guest in the penultimate episode of the season, John Mostyn. They talk about 10 day silent retreats, addiction, and Trainspotting. Ok not Trainspotting but a little bit about being Scottish. Enjoy.
