In this episode: Tax Changes Coming: New tax legislation is expected, though details remain unclear. Income vs. Consumption Tax: Some Republicans propose replacing income tax with a national sales tax—unlikely to gain traction. IRS Under Pressure: Talk of abolishing the IRS is unrealistic. Staffing cuts and layoffs have worsened service, especially for notice resolution. Startup Deductions: A proposed bill would raise the startup cost deduction from $5K to $20K, easing the burden on new businesses. Contractor vs. Employee Crackdown: IRS is stepping up enforcement. Misclassification risks penalties—accurate documentation is key. Section 530 Relief: Offers protection if contractors were treated consistently and proper forms were filed. Americans Abroad: U.S. citizens must pay tax on worldwide income but can exclude up to $130K if they meet certain residency tests. We are joined by, Brett Emmons, founder of the BE LIFE Institute, who shares his journey from youth empowerment to launching a movement that bridges personal and professional growth. Inspired by a chance encounter and the book Reinventing Organizations, Brett helps business and nonprofit leaders evolve their organizations using systems that mirror living ecosystems—emphasizing shared leadership, intention, and adaptability.

A truly international band composed of a Brit, a Frenchman, two Americans and two Canadians, The Wilderness formed in 2015. The Wilderness is the lifelong dream of six rock n' roll devotees based in Kingston, ON. Together, they bring the piss and vinegar of young DIY road-dogs, the lyrical eloquence of Canada's folk heroes, and the musical grandeur of your dad's favourite arena-rock band to any stage they can find. Think the belting poetry of Sam Fender, the lush vocal harmonies of Hozier, the driving guitars and soaring saxophones of Bruce Springsteen, and the effervescent choruses of Noah Kahan, held together by an unmistakable bond of brotherhood and a shared love of rock n' roll. A musical tapestry of truest Canadian fashion, the Wilderness sounds like nostalgia, feels like camaraderie, and looks a lot like a band you should watch out for.Since 2015, The Wilderness have been earning their following by cutting their teeth over countless long nights and hundreds of thousands of kilometers. Their debut album, “Until Tomorrow” was produced by Rob Baker (the Tragically Hip) and charted on the NACC's top 200 list for seven consecutive weeks. Their forth coming 2024 LP, “Strangers I Used to Love” was written in collaboration with JUNO panelist Steve Foley, Brett Emmons (the Glorious Sons), and Chris Koster (ex-the Glorious Sons) and sits poised to take the band to new heights and highways. With almost 600 independently booked shows across North America under their belt, and an independently released discography to their credit, the Wilderness are a formidable musical force and an unmistakably human band working hard to keep their dreams alive.

We had the pleasure of interviewing The Glorious Sons over Zoom video!The Glorious Sons, renowned for their chart-topping hits and captivating live performances, are poised to make an impact on the musical landscape once again with the release of their new album, 'Glory'. With a distinct roots rock feel, the 10-track project is out now via Warner Music Canada and ADA Worldwide.Best known for their twoBillboard Mainstream Rockchart-topping singles "S.O.S. (Sawed OffShotgun)" and "Panic Attack," as well as being nominated for the 2020 iHeart Media Best NewRock/Alternative Rock Artist, The Glorious Sons have consistently pushed boundaries and defied expectations. With their latest album, 'Glory', they delve even deeper into the human experience, exploring themes of perseverance, personal growth, and the tumultuous journey of self-acceptance.Lead singer Brett Emmons shares his perspective on the album's inspiration and themes: "When I listen back to this album, it kind of presents itself as one big inner struggle puked out for everyone to hear. Sometimes it actually embarrasses me quite a bit—but that's what was in there, so—life goes on, I guess."He attributes the album's themes to spending time alone and confronting his inner thoughts during the pandemic: "It kind of feels like the acknowledgment of that annoying pain of what it means to be human."The Glorious Sons' journey in the music industry has undeniably influenced the evolution of their sound.‘Glory' showcases their growth, maintaining the emotional intensity they are known for while exploring new sonic territories. Emmons reflects,"'Glory' is just another chapter in what we're doing—I'm sure we'll be another band next album, it's kind of just the way our minds work."He emphasizes the album's departure from the immediate hit-seeking approach, instead focusing on creating a body of work that breathes and takes its time, allowing the band's personal taste to shine through.The album's lead single, "Mercy Mercy," set the tone for the introspective journey. The song combines elements of familiarity and innovation to showcase the band's distinct sonic style and poignant lyrics, while highlighting their anthemic and ambitious nature.“Mercy Mercy” quickly became a contender, it was the most added track at rock radio formats for two consecutive weeks, reached #3 on Mediabase's Multiple Rock Formats in Canada, and continues to receive strong support from Triple A and Alternative stations in the US."Glory" not only stands as the album's title but also embodies its essence, playing a pivotal role in the project's narrative. Emmons describes it as" a rally cry to the band," a reflection on their journey, a surrendering of emotions, and a reminder that success is not a guarantee. He notes, "I wanted people to know how good we had it, and remind them that this [success] doesn't last forever. It's not just something that's owed to us."We want to hear from you!

Hailing from Kingston, Ontario, this band has traversed a tumultuous four-year journey, marked by numerous stops and starts. Their latest offering, "Glory," is an album co-produced by the band's own Brett Emmons and Frederik Thaae, a work that encapsulates the profound artistic vision they've nurtured over the years. This album ignites with a vivid sonic approach and raw, heartfelt lyricism, bearing emotional truths that are both deeply personal and universally resonant.Brett Emmons, the band's lead singer-songwriter, reflects on their evolution: "I think that all this time has allowed us to very slowly hone in on something that just feels a little bit bigger, something a bit more anthemic and celebratory."Like any true rock 'n' roll band, The Glorious Sons spent a significant portion of their journey on the road, from headlining tours to festival performances and even three unforgettable stadium shows supporting legends like The Rolling Stones. More recently, they headlined alongside Pearl Jam at London, England's Hyde Park. The global pandemic brought their touring to a halt, offering the band a rare chance to reflect on their accomplishments. During this period, they composed nearly 40 new songs fueled by the intense emotions and anxieties that arose during the global shutdown. However, as Brett Emmons explains, these tracks didn't align with the band's core narrative:Nevertheless, The Glorious Sons turned adversity into an opportunity for growth. It encouraged them to recalibrate their goals and overarching vision, pushing them to become better producers and embrace their own sensitivities and sentimentality. They realized that they needed assistance and found it in the form of Danish producer, composer, and musician Frederik Thaae, with whom they had previously collaborated on their studio albums.Upon reuniting with Thaae in July 2022 at Brett Emmons' cottage near Kingston, the band felt an immediate sense of belonging. Emmons reminisces, "It just felt like being back at home...Getting that connection back with him was an important feeling for me. It felt like I had a sparring partner again, the way I needed to.""I just wanted it to be huge," Emmons shares. "I wanted it to sound wide open, that feeling of your chest being an open field. I wanted to be unapologetically ambitious."From their inception, The Glorious Sons have achieved the remarkable feat of sounding both familiar and groundbreaking. They have redefined what it means to be a rock 'n' roll band in the modern era. With "Glory," The Glorious Sons have pushed themselves to the brink, creating something meaningful, authentic, and uniquely their own.Brett Emmons sums up their journey: "We spent a long, long time on the hamster wheel when we started out, and now, I want to just take things as they come. For the first time in my life, I feel like the way people receive This episode is sponsored by www.betterhelp.com/TheBarn and presented to you by The Barn Media Group.

S.01 E.01 & S.02 E.07. This episode features Brett Emmons and Jay Emmons of the Glorious Sons. Brett was my very first ever guest on the podcast/livestream in May of 2020 and Jay came on during season 2 on September 2nd, 2020. As you'll hear in the interviews, I go way back with the Sons. I discovered them opening for my band in Barrie, ON back in 2012. I produced their debut EP "Shapeless Art" and their debut album "The Union". I always love catching up with them any chance I get! When I recorded the intro I only planned on making the Brett episode available but I figured I would tack on the Jay chat as well, same as when I had two different members of the Hip on.  Link to original live streams:  Brett : https://www.instagram.com/thetrews/tv/CAK-AQ5BUc8/?utm_medium=share_sheet Jay : https://www.instagram.com/tv/CEp4g1oAEDo/?utm_medium=share_sheet Link to Spotify playlist : https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0w7PG6jILZKa7yLZgcSzcX
