For many Toronto families, the answer is a resounding yes.In this episode of The Last Honest Realtor, David Fleming explores one of the biggest drivers of home prices: public school catchments. Through real client stories, market observations, and the latest statistical data, he explains why invisible school boundaries can add tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars to a home's value.David discusses how parents make housing decisions years before their children even enter school, why some buyers purchase investment properties simply to secure a school address, and why supply and demand around desirable catchments creates powerful pricing premiums.In This Episode:00:00 – Intro05:13 – The four neighbourhood factors every buyer should consider07:46 – How school boundaries change home values14:31 – What the data says about school premiums in the GTA17:00 – Buying an investment property for the school address24:16 – Why catchment lines can dramatically affect home prices28:12 – Why school rankings don't tell the whole story31:05 – What parents should evaluate beyond test scores33:13 – The biggest takeaway for Toronto homebuyersWhether you're a parent, a future homebuyer, or simply curious about what really drives Toronto real estate values, this episode offers an honest perspective on the intersection of housing and the city's public school system.Support the showSubscribe and Follow:Toronto Realty Group WebsiteToronto Realty Group YouTubeToronto Realty Blog InstagramToronto Realty Blog TwitterToronto Realty Blog Facebook

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of The Last Honest Realtor, David shares the advice he wishes every young buyer could hear: your first home isn't just an investment—it's the place that will shape your friendships, routines, career, relationships, and some of the most memorable years of your life.Most first-time buyers obsess over price per square foot, interest rates, and trying to perfectly time the market. But after 22 years in Toronto real estate and looking back on buying his own first condo at 25, David Fleming believes those aren't the decisions that will matter most. Drawing on personal stories from his own move to downtown Toronto, David explains why choosing the right neighborhood often matters more than finding the absolute lowest price, along with other factors that often get overlooked. If you're in your 20s or helping someone buy their first property, this episode offers a perspective you won't find in market reports.In This Episode:01:28 – The condo I didn't buy04:57 – The biggest mistake first-time buyers make05:18 – Why location shapes your entire life10:33 – Don't buy "somewhere", buy into a community12:08 – Do you really need a real estate agent?13:14 – Which condo amenities are actually worth paying for?17:49 – Designing your condo around your lifestyle26:40 – Should you wait for the market bottom?28:03 – Why your twenties are worth more than perfect timingSupport the showSubscribe and Follow:Toronto Realty Group WebsiteToronto Realty Group YouTubeToronto Realty Blog InstagramToronto Realty Blog TwitterToronto Realty Blog Facebook

Bros, it's the season finale, and we're going out with a musical swell for the ages, because we're joined by Emmy-nominated composer David Fleming! You may recently have heard his spookily compelling score for Widow's Bay, his optimistic John Williams interpolations for Superman (2025), his thrilling and eclectic score for Mr. and Mrs. Smith -- or perhaps you had a good cry to his work on The Last of Us! On today's ep, we ask David all about his experiences composing, his thoughts on test tracks, his inspirations and faves, and what cool stuff he's got coming down the pike!  Head over to our PATREON for ad-free episodes, video episodes, and more!

In this episode of The Localist, Carrie Rollwagen sits down with David Fleming, president and CEO of REV Birmingham. REV is the nonprofit that works to grow downtown Birmingham and the Woodlawn neighborhood, and David has been doing this work for 30 years. He is a self-described building hugger, a Bessemer native, and a walking encyclopedia of Birmingham history. Carrie and David open with a Birmingham history lesson. Why the city was founded as an entrepreneurial response to the collapse of the Southern slave economy, why the immigrants who came here to open dry goods stores and furniture shops mattered as much as the industrialists, and why understanding that DNA is critical for anyone leading the city into the future. Then they get into the last 30 years of downtown revitalization. Why 2010 was the pivotal year. How Railroad Park and Regions Field changed people's belief in what downtown could be. Why Second Avenue North became a corridor and how Urban Standard lit the fuse. The second half is a practical guide for small business owners. What REV actually does (place management, economic development, marketing and storytelling, advocacy and policy), the CAP program you see downtown in the blue shirts, the Business Improvement District, the historic preservation easement program, and the real estate advice REV offers for free to any business owner trying to figure out where to open. David also shares what a 2000-person survey revealed about what people actually want to see downtown, and why the answer is not what most people expect. If you own a small business in Birmingham or love the city, this conversation is full of practical resources and Birmingham history you should know.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of the Last Honest Realtor, David Fleming draws on his own experience investing during the tech boom and bust of 2001-2002 to ask an important question: “How and when should you exercise a loss?”David also analyzes a recent media article about sellers who exercised a massive loss on a home in Peel Region and explains why the loss never should have been that large to begin with. In this episode we explore why people struggle to "exercise a loss," how emotions cloud financial decisions, and why sometimes the best investment move is accepting a loss and redeploying your capital elsewhere.In This Episode:01:35 — The investing mistake that changed my life09:32 — Why I wanted to sell—and didn't15:16 — The danger of hindsight16:23 — The Brampton home that lost $950,00031:30 — Why sellers must stay ahead of a falling market34:39 — Reinvesting instead of holding on38:36 — Why real estate owners struggle to sell at a loss40:08 — When selling at a loss can actually make financial senseWhether you own a condo that's fallen in value, an investment property, or you're simply trying to understand the roller coaster of the Toronto housing market, this episode offers an honest look at one of the toughest decisions investors face.Support the showSubscribe and Follow:Toronto Realty Group WebsiteToronto Realty Group YouTubeToronto Realty Blog InstagramToronto Realty Blog TwitterToronto Realty Blog Facebook

Send us Fan MailHas the Toronto real estate market finally hit bottom? It's one of the most searched questions in Canadian real estate, but it's also one of the most misunderstood. In this episode, David Fleming explains why market bottom can only be identified after it's already happened, why buyers almost always purchase on the way back up (even at higher prices), and how psychology—not statistics—drives most real estate decisions.Using historical market cycles, media headlines, investment examples, and real Toronto housing data, David breaks down why trying to perfectly time the market is a game almost nobody wins.In This Episode:02:05 — Why nobody can identify the bottom in real time04:17 — Why buyers always purchase on the way back up13:18 — Are Toronto condos hitting new lows?16:00 — Interest rates and the "affordability bottom" narrative22:14 — Fear of losing more vs fear of missing out31:12 — Condos, detached homes, and different market bottoms33:26 — What the data actually says about Toronto condosIf you're waiting for the "perfect time" to buy in Toronto, this episode may completely change how you think about the market.Support the showSubscribe and Follow:Toronto Realty Group WebsiteToronto Realty Group YouTubeToronto Realty Blog InstagramToronto Realty Blog TwitterToronto Realty Blog Facebook

David Fleming continues his discussion with Tim Flores about the jazz fusion group, Kittyhawk. Thanks to Tim (and some incredible technology and tech support) we now have a live album from a group which stopped playing together long before the cd was released. The producing of the cd was an arduous process, as it required extracting and repairing recordings from some rather unusual sources. The result is "Kittyhawk: Reclaimed Bootlegs."

Jonathan Karrant with The Joe Alterman Trio is an absolutely FANTASTIC release. On this edition of KVC-Arts, David Fleming speaks with Jonathan about the album, and we'll get a touch of the music as well. Blending jazz standards with tunes from jazz greats - which may or may not be a so called "standard." Tunes which you may associate with Nancy Wilson, Les McCann, Wes Montgomery... even Jerry Lewis! Mix these in with a couple pop megahits with a WONDERFUL jazz treatment (Your Song, Everybody's Talking, Don't Let Me be Lonely Tonight), and you have "Jonathan Karrant with The Joe Alterman Trio Live in Concert." This - and a sneak peak at his NEXT release, due out in September.

Jonathan Karrant joins David Fleming to spotlight his latest release, "Jonathan Karrant With The Joe Alterman Trio: LIVE IN CONCERT. Two tunes from "On and On" made it to this concert and it's really nice to see (and hear) the evolution OF these tunes. The others are tunes which are attention getters, just scanning the back of the disc. Some you may only know of as instrumentals... and Jonathan delivers FUN, fun takes! The first broadcast of this show happened to fall on Mother's Day, and we just HAPPEN to begin the program he released FOR Mother's Day!

Good artists borrow, great artists steal. Apparently, Thomas Jefferson got the memo. It turns out some North Carolinians penned their own Declaration of Independence nearly a year before TJ scribed his. So, if Thomas Jefferson stole (borrowed/homaged) the language for the Declaration of Independence, why have we never talked about this? Well, there was one heck of cover up! To get the full story, we call up David Fleming, author of Who's Your Founding Father?: One Man’s Epic Quest to Uncover the First, True Declaration of Independence.

Chris Thayer speaks with David Fleming about several albums with a fair amount of crossover in style, feel and execution. All WELL worth getting - and highly advisable! There's a much more focused look (and listen) on the most recent. One Foot In the Grave, a 2026 release, kicks off hard and heavy with Dynamite. Other tracks you may recognize if you've been going to Chris Thayer and the TCB shows for any amount of time, as a few come from the past, but are given SUCH a wonderful treatment, and ALL worth a LOUD listen!We'll hear about the songs, the difference between the cd and the vinyl release, Chris's YouTube channel and more.

David Fleming speaks with Chris Thayer about several releases, all of which overlap in style, songs, or feel.

David Fleming speaks with Benjiphonik about his newest single, "15 Minutes Ahead of Insanity," as well as the video release FOR it. The release was another in the series of videos being launched in tandem with KVC-Arts. The song and video speak of being at the point of boiling over, but with a look at lessons we could have and should have learned from. Lessons we perhaps still CAN learn.

For forty-plus years, beyond being the soloist and/or pianist with many of the most renowned symphonies in the U.S. and beyond, Jeffrey Siegel has been performing/presenting "Keyboard Conversations." This is a concert setting, though before each piece he explains not only a bit of the history behind it and things to look forward to within the piece, but also some interesting facts one might not know, unless you happen to have REALLY studied the piece or composer. And then there's a Q&A after the concert to cover anything else.David Fleming speaks with Siegel about this series - including the next one, "Music of Joy and Peace coming up soon at McCallum Theatre in Palm Desert. And a bit of a sidetrack to Gershwin.

Theologian Bo Karen Lee joins Ryan McAnnally-Linz to explore how the multiple layers of trauma—pandemic grief, racialized violence, intergenerational wounding, vicarious suffering—can be met by the resources of Ignatian spirituality and contemplative prayer. Writing and teaching at the intersection of Christian formation and social justice, Lee brings both scholarly precision and uncommon personal candor to one of the most urgent conversations in theology today. "Trauma tends to isolate and alienate us from our siblings, our human siblings. But ironically, this witnessing of one another's pain is the source of healing. So it has the very opposite effect of what is needed for it to be healed." In this conversation, Lee reflects on the spiritual journey from what one author calls "alarmed aloneness" toward becoming beloved—seen, held, and gazed upon with love. Together they discuss the overlapping layers of collective, personal, racialized, and intergenerational trauma shaping contemporary life; attachment theory and its parallels with spiritual formation; the Ignatian tradition of imaginative, contemplative prayer; the still face experiment and the theology of the loving gaze; and why the church has something singular to offer the trauma crisis of our time. Episode Highlights "We are quite sure we're alone in the world and no one really sees us, no one truly cares and no one can be trusted. You're alone, overwhelmed, and helpless." "Trauma tends to isolate and alienate us from our siblings, our human siblings. But ironically, this witnessing of one another's pain is the source of healing. So it has the very opposite effect of what is needed for it to be healed." "I need to be held, but it's this illusory figure that holds me, because I have shut myself off to the very things that could help me, because no one is to be trusted." "I've seen too much hope, and too much beauty, and too much healing walking through the spiritual exercises that I can no longer despair that trauma has the final word." "Gazing upon the God who gazes upon me with love. That is contemplative prayer." About Bo Karen Lee Bo Karen Lee is Associate Professor of Spiritual Theology and Christian Formation at Princeton Theological Seminary, where she teaches contemplative theology, Ignatian spirituality, and the relationship between prayer and social justice. A leading voice in the integration of trauma studies and Christian formation, she brings the Ignatian tradition into conversation with psychology, attachment theory, and the lived experience of racialized communities. Her work draws on the Spiritual Exercises of Ignatius of Loyola to offer resources for healing that are both theologically grounded and pastorally immediate. She directs retreatants in the nineteenth annotation of the Spiritual Exercises and works regularly with spiritual directors trained in the Ignatian tradition.

Adélaïde Labille-Guiard was a painter in 18th century France, when women were barely recognized, and for the most part, not welcomed as such. Despite this, she ended up being amongst the first, and very FEW women to be admitted to the Royal Academy of Painting and Sculpture. David Fleming speaks with Janell Strube, author of Adelaide: Painter of the Revolution. This work of historical fiction takes place leading up to the French Revolution... though the prologue begins at the absolute HEIGHT... and in the heart... of one of the major revolts in 1793, much like an action movie drawing you right in!

Today we are joined by David Fleming, Peabody-nominated correspondent for Meadowlark Media, longtime ESPN senior writer, and author of A Big Mess in Texas: The Miraculous, Disastrous 1952 Dallas Texans and The Craziest Untold Story in NFL History (St. Martin's Press, 2025). In our conversation, we discussed the origins of the infamous (but also surprisingly un-famous) Dallas Texans, the club's disastrous rise and fall, and why the NFL's first franchise in Texas failed. In A Big Mess in Texas, Fleming skilfully recovers the characters, hijinks and scandals, losses and one wonderful win that engulfed and eventually finished the Dallas Texans over ten months in 1952. It was the last NFL franchise to fail. His tale includes notable NFL personalities including Bert Bell, Jimmy Phelan, Gino Marchetti, Buddy Young, and Art Donovan. He argues that the Texans, mostly remembered for being a famous flop, also deserve a place in NFL history for being pioneers. They were the first team NFL team in the south, the first football team to integrate and Texas, and their management and ownership included men and women. The rump of the team became the beginnings of the super successful Baltimore Colts team of the 1950s. Perhaps most importantly, while they were never America's team, they set the stage for the emergence of the Dallas Cowboys in 1960, who borrowed liberally from the aesthetics and the antics of the Texans. Fleming's compelling account, deeply researched, and genuinely rollicking narrative will be of broad interest to people fascinated by American sports, football, and the NFL.

A Big Mess in Texas: The Miraculous, Disastrous 1952 Dallas Texans and the Craziest Untold Story in NFL History by David Fleming https://www.amazon.com/Big-Mess-Texas-Miraculous-Disastrous/dp/1250374308 Flemfile.com The incredible, untold true story of the 1952 Dallas Texans―the most dysfunctional team in the craziest season in NFL history. Rattlesnakes on the practice field, barroom brawls between teammates, bounced checks, paternity suits, house bombings by the Ku Klux Klan, stadium fields covered in circus-elephant dung, one-legged trainers, humiliating defeats, miraculous wins, All-Pro quarterbacks getting drunk at halftime, strip poker with groupies, and even a future Hall of Fame coach stealing a cab. Nearly lost to history, this singular season in the most football-mad region of the world is a kaleidoscope of every larger-than-life, fictionalized Texas football folktale ever written or filmed, with one incredible twist: it’s all true. Over a fascinating, ten-month rollercoaster ride in 1952, in the waning Wild West days of the NFL, before television turned the game into a corporation, the forgotten Dallas Texans would go down in history as one of the worst (and, wildest) teams of all time and the last NFL team to fail. But not before defying the Jim Crow South, pulling off a Thanksgiving Day miracle against George Halas's famed Chicago Bears and then celebrating with an even more infamous bender that would make Jimmy Johnson's Dallas Cowboys blush. A year later, the NFL buried all traces of the most loveable, dysfunctional, entertaining team in history by secretly rebranding the train wreck Texans as the wholesome, all-American Baltimore Colts, the team that would go on to save pro football. A Big Mess in Texas tells the Texans' tale with all the humor, drama, game action, colorful characters, villains, world-class athletes, civil rights trailblazers, and incredible plot twists of that legendary season.
