Ever wondered how Kelly & Company came to life? In this special Vanity Card, Kelly MacDonald takes us behind the scenes to reveal the unexpected journey that led to the show's creation—sharing details that maybe he shouldn't! It all started back in 2013 or 2014, when AMI-audio was exploring the idea of a live show—a big shift from its traditional format of readings and pre-recorded documentaries. The concept was ambitious, and as auditions began, Kelly, who was focused on television at the time, was initially not part of the plan. But his passion for live broadcasting couldn't keep him away for long. Through a mix of persistence, timing, and a little bit of luck, Kelly found his way into AMI-audio, starting with weekly appearances alongside Mike Ross in early 2016. But his story doesn't stop there—just when things started settling in, AMI's VP of Production, John Melville, called Kelly in for a meeting… and that's where the next chapter begins. Want to know what happened next? Stay tuned for the next Vanity Card where Kelly shares that pivotal conversation!

On today's MadTech Daily: Brands Look to Change Agency Remuneration Models; OpenAI Considers Advertising; OpenAI Sued by Canadian Media 

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau makes a surprise trip to Mar-a-Lago to meet with President- elect Donald Trump.Major Canadian news organizations, including the CBC, are banding together to sue OpenAI over its use of copywritten material to train its ChatGPT software. The news organizations argue it's illegal.And: A town in Saskatchewan is seeing a resurgence of scurvy. More than two dozen cases have been diagnosed, alarming doctors and leading some to point to the rising cost of food as the reason why people aren't getting enough vitamin C.Also: As Wicked smashes records for movie musicals, theaters have to remind patrons to keep the singing to a minimum. But movie theatre singing is the least of the issues. Phone use, talking and audience members filming the screen for social media mean movie theatre etiquette has fallen off a cliff. Is the magic of movie-going changing, and how are theatres responding?Plus: Hamas losing control of Gaza, Syrian rebels launch assault on Aleppo, women's hockey — season two, the Canada Post strike hurting small business, and more.

Why was everyone surprised about them voting red in the year of our lahd 2024? Canada Post is striking and it's showing how biased against the average worker Canadian Media really is Lisa Fevral: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJdvK5wMriowQqbGC7G0lDA https://twitter.com/LisaFevral https://www.instagram.com/lisafevral/

Pete Creek jumps on the podcast today!Dean blocked Pete, and that's how they met. They stump for the same shit, truth, fun, and no matter the culture, assholes are assholes. We got into:- Canadian media does not fact-check politicians, businesses, or people they want access to. The problem it causes when we legitimize lies as "Politics" is total bullshit.- Pete's problem with people who think memes are news.- People who think disagreeing on something means you have to be enemies. How funny is it to watch average humans accept a funny picture or video as truth without checking anything? It's very funny. People who lie about facts tell us how to feel and then tell us they'll save us from that lie. We got into Auston Matthews being the NHL's two-way GOAT. Not McDavid. Not Gretzky. Not Orr. Auston Matthews is the best player in the history of the NHL, and watching him every night should cost THOUSANDS. We discovered the Alberta Accent and discovered it's illegal to sell 4 liters of off-brand vodka in a 4l milk jug. The hard way. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Jaclyne Martin joins Voice Of GO(r)D to discuss the situation with her man Jerry, and the other men facing a Kafka-esque nightmare as pawns being used to justify the actions of the venal and vindictive regime of Justin Trudeau. Now having spent over 630 days in remand without bail nor trial, these men are suffering a grave injustice in what is clearly a politically motivated witch hunt, as are their children, families, and friends. The Canadian Media have neglected their duty to hold power to account, and only a very small number of voices are raising legitimate questions about what is going on with this case. Jaclyne very graciously shares her side of the story with us. Recorded on October 16, 2023. To learn more about this situation, you can read two articles I have written about it in Newsweek - https://www.newsweek.com/justin-trudeaus-political-prisoners-opinion-1812866 https://www.newsweek.com/meet-four-men-being-held-political-prisoners-canada-opinion-1831823 Keep up to date by following the Alberta Political Prisoners Facebook Page, or the work of independent journalist Mocha Bezirgan, who has been reporting on the story right from Lethbridge. https://www.facebook.com/groups/622318705558931/ https://www.mediabezirgan.com/ Chris Carbert has a bail hearing on November 8, and Mocha will no doubt be there to report on the results.If you would like to assist the Men and their families with the astronomical legal costs in fighting off Leviathan from ruining their lives, you can donate here - https://www.givesendgo.com/G9HX4 For more audio on this story, you can hear my interview with Margaret Mackay here - https://autonomoustruckers.substack.com/p/on-the-coutts-4-political-prisoners And an interview with Nikki Thom here - https://autonomoustruckers.substack.com/p/canada-tortures-political-prisoners Canada doesn't have to be this way, and you don't have to be party to its descent into totalitarianism.

A battle is raging in Canada between the government and two goliaths -- Google and Facebook.  At the center are Canadian news sites, which have seen site visits plummet as much as 50% since Meta blocked news links last summer.  Will there be a ripple effect in The States?  In this episode, Gordon & Corey offer their take on what's happening, and turn to Jeff Elgie, the founder of 21 hyperlocal sites who foresees a devastating effect if Google blocks Canadian news links by a Dec. 19 deadline.

Quite a day yesterday as Liz Cheney and Hillary Clinton surface - each screeching from their political ash heap about the dangers that await us if Jim Jordan becomes the next Speaker of the House and/or Donald Trump becomes the president. A new poll confirms the issues are solidly behind Republicans all the way. Biden is allegedly kicking the crap out of his dog at the White House. And the Nobel Prize has been awarded to two Penn scientists who are credited with developing the COVID shot. Dr. Robert Malone - credited with the science that laid the groundwork for their shot development explains what this award means, and then a very interesting discussion ensues about the trustworthiness of your own family doctor that you need to hear. -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today an encore presentation of an episode that originally aired on May 8th. After lots of talk on The Bridge about television journalism, today some thoughts on the struggle to keep print journalism alive.  A feature interview with Jordan Bitove the owner and CEO of TorStar, which controls the Toronto Star and 80 others newspapers in the country. 

In today's media landscape, trendy narratives often replace facts, when they are inconvenient. David Leis welcomes journalist and publisher of Blacklocks Reporter Holly Doan, to hear how she strives to report only unadulterated facts; often using the Government's own documents to hold officials accountable. You'll love this discussion as they touch on the higher calling of journalism and how truth-telling ought to influence democratic nations.

Last week on Lean Out, we heard from Canadian journalist Jen Gerson. The response from listeners was overwhelming. You asked for more coverage of the collapse of our media, including, of course, controversial new legislation. Bill C-18 aims to save journalism in this country — but Tara's guest this week argues that it has instead “accidentally pushed the news industry into the abyss.” Peter Menzies is a former newspaper executive and a former vice chair of the CRTC, the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission. He's now a senior fellow at the Macdonald-Laurier Institute and a frequent commentator on the Canadian media.You can find Tara Henley on Twitter at @TaraRHenley, and on Substack at tarahenley.substack.com

If you listen to this podcast, you know that the Canadian media is in serious trouble. But in recent weeks, that crisis has intensified, with wave after wave of bad news for the industry. Bell Canada laid off 1300 staff. And, when this was episode was recorded, merger talks between the two biggest newspaper publishers were ongoing — negotiations have since broken down. Add to that, in the wake of controversial new legislation, Bill C-18, Google and Facebook announced they would remove links to Canadian journalism from the platforms. (Though, just as this episode closed, Heritage Minister Pablo Rodriguez announced that the government was drafting regulations that would set a cap on what Google and Facebook would be required to pay to our news industry). So today, given all that's going on, we have a special, hour-long episode of Lean Out. And my guest is here to help me unpack these developments — and to think through the state of our press, from lost public trust and pandemic mistakes, to the rise of independent outlets and and the future of the CBC.Jen Gerson is a Calgary journalist, a contributing columnist at The Globe and Mail, and co-founder of the Canadian outlet The Line. She's currently writing a book about moral panics. Jen Gerson is my guest, today on Lean Out. Transcript to come for paid subscribers. You can find Tara Henley on Twitter at @TaraRHenley, and on Substack at tarahenley.substack.com

Unfortunately Dave Blezard could not make it today but this is still a great episode.

We're back with special guest Matt Cundill from Sound Off Media, our podcast partner! Canadian Media circumcised themselves again today. Bell Media, Canada's largest broadcaster, TURNED OFF Radio stations across Canada, firing 1300 human beings in the process. The same week, they reported record earnings and profits, including MASSIVE government subsidies to KEEP Canadians working. Dean, Loch, and Matt have a combined 85 years in radio, and they discuss the following: - What does this mean for the future of Radio in Canada (no bueno) - Is it greed or progress that's killed the industry? - Where does TRUST in MSM factor into the death of traditional media - The future of digital media - can it replace free-to-air radio and cable (it already has) - Why media companies don't report on the ACTUAL state of their TERRIBLE business. - The opportunity for us Las Vegas is your Stanley Cup Champion! That's right: 6 years after they were born the Vegas Golden Knights beat the Florida Panthers with Win Lord Stanleys Mug and we talk about the perennial failure of those who still suck (Leafs, Oilers, ETC).

After lots of talk on The Bridge about television journalism, today some thoughts on the struggle to keep print journalism alive.  A feature interview with Jordan Bitove the owner and CEO of TorStar, which controls the Toronto Star and 80 others newspapers in the country. 

Bruce has just completed a deep dive on the CBC and how Canadians feel about it.  The results aren't pretty and along with Chantal and me, we have some thoughts on whether the nearly 100-year-old national public broadcaster will even make it to the centennial in 2036.

A chance comment the other day on retirement prompted a fair amount of mail from young and old listeners, forming the opening act of today's Your Turn.  Plus The Random Ranter has his take on the popularity of lithium and why we should think twice about it. 

Fox pays almost 800 million dollars to shut down a lawsuit against the news network for fabricating stories. No apologies, no firings -- Bruce wonders whether democracy was served by that decision.  Was the prime minister right or wrong to take a holiday in Jamaica at a wealthy friends resort?  And the latest on the CBC, all on this week's Smoke Mirrors and The Truth.

It was ten years ago this month that Justin Trudeau became leader of the Liberal Party of Canada.  He's been prime minister for almost eight of those years.  Is it time to go or is there still "gas in the tank"? Chantal and Bruce have their thoughts on the meaning of the anniversary, plus some comments on Pierre Poilievre's latest attack moment with the media.

Jordan Heath-Rawlings has been a stalwart of Canadian Media for years. But, with his daily news podcast The Big Story, Jordan has given Canadians the news that matters to them with striking authenticity. He joins us to tell us some of his favourite podcasts, why not focusing on the biggest daily stories is an advantage and how he likes to ask the questions the audiences want answers to. We'll hear a wide variety of podcasts – including a story about the rivalry between Sony and Nintendo in the 90s, as well as the controversies that surrounded the 2000 U.S. Presidential election. Plus, Jordan tells us about his thinking behind his hit podcast The Gravy Train – about the rise of Mayor Rob Ford – and he'll tell us why we need to be truly fearful of Canadian geese.

Fifty years ago this month, Citytv came on the airwaves and changed the Canadian media landscape. Moses Znaimer was one of its co-founders. He went on to be the driving force behind MuchMusic, FashionTelevision, Bravo! and more. He now runs Zoomer Media and advocates for older Canadians.
