Step back in time to 1984. It's a pivotal year in the history of Canadian television — it's the year Much Music was born. In this episode of Chatter that Matters, we look at its fascinating journey and Canadian content that competed with the best in the world.   Much Music was one of the first Canadian specialty channels; this ground-breaking concept emerged from the vision of two trailblazing individuals, Moses Znaimer and John Martin. Against all odds, with limited resources but boundless creativity, they created a cultural phenomenon that captured Canadians' hearts and took on the mighty MTV.   I recorded the show at 299 Queen Street West, where it all came together, and sat down with two of Much Music's iconic VJs, Erica Ehm and Rick Campanelli. Erica takes listeners on a nostalgic journey as she recounts the early days, what it was like to interview legendary figures such as Kurt Cobain, and how what she learned there enabled her to become a successful entrepreneur. Meanwhile, Rick shares his remarkable journey of securing his dream job through a contest and turning that win into his phenomenal broadcasting career.   Together, Erica and Rick transport us back to an era when Canadian content reigned supreme, and Much Music was at the forefront of this cultural revolution. Discover the untold stories, challenges, and sheer passion fuelled this channel's meteoric rise. A moment in time that will stand the test of time.   Alan Depencier, the CMO of RBC, joins the show and puts on a master class on what it takes to create content that engages your audience in an era of infinite choice and discerning tastes.   It is a beautiful story, a proud moment for Canadian creativity, and some outstanding takeaways.   Time Codes:   00:01.      Tony's opening 00:02:16  Erica and Rick recall their time at Much Music. 00:06:33  Moses Znaimer reinvented media, inspired entrepreneurship, encouraged creativity. 00:08:33 Leaders in the corporate world should embody the flexibility, creativity, and fluidity exhibited by Moses, challenging the traditional thinking of "my way or the highway" embraced by old white men. Erica suggests that Tony should run more businesses or coach individuals, as he has demonstrated the ability to inspire and empower others in the past, much like Moses. 00:12:15 Erica Ehm and Rick Campanelli discuss their favorite interviews and an upcoming interactive tour based on the Documentary 299 Queen Street West. 00:18:25 Rick dreams of being like Erica and Steve, but it seems impossible. Enjoyed watching the interviews and VJ's behavior. 00:21:33 Rick - I wanted to win the contest tied to the movie "The Temp" in 1993. 00:24:10 Rick sits at Erica's desk.  Never again.  00:28:15 The lesson: Find your own path in life, don't follow others. 00:32:03 Erica on her role with 299 Queen Street West. It was an nteresting experience meeting new and old people for a documentary. Initially skeptical, but became a consulting producer. The finished product exceeded expectations. 00:35:05  Rick flies to Austin to be there for the premier. . 00:37:30 Rick's humility and talent were exceptional, inspiring a lesson for everyone. In a world focused on validation and self-promotion, we should embrace humility. Canadians can produce world-class content, even with limited resources. 00:42:44 Alan Depencier joins the show.  Music is returning after COVID, with live events sponsored by RBCX featuring renowned artists and supporting lesser-known ones. RBCX offers profile, support, and guidance for artists' careers. 00:44:03 Grateful for Alan's presence, future endeavours mentioned.

This week on Finding Your Bliss, we have a show devoted to an exciting new documentary all about Much Music called

Iconic Canadian television station MuchMusic was the little channel that could, surviving in the face of long odds to thrive and make a massive cultural impact in both their home country and around the world. Film maker Sean Menard is capturing the unique and bold times of the stations early years in his documentary "299 Queen Street West", the physical home of MuchMusic for most of it's lifetime.

That includes such former WTM guests as Christopher Ward and Erica Ehm, and this episodes visitor, the fabulous Michael Williams. Michael Williams brought a level of cool and class to MuchMusic that was vital to establishing the station's vibe, and there's lots of talk on this episode of the We Talk Music podcast about those times, the documentary, and what Michael Williams is up to no.

Two sisters who are both famous in their own right go into business together to teach others the skills that have supercharged their own careers. That's the upshot of this episode but it's so much more than that.  Erica Ehm has been a public figure since I was a teenager and although we didn't meet until today, her work has been a reality in my life for decades.  She launched her digital media business catering, a digital agency catering to mom's on social when my daughter was 1.  I didn't understand the full scope of her work until I connected with her on LinkedIn several years ago.  She's so much more than a VJ.  She has a personal commitment to adding her voice to do good in the world and boy has she succeeded.   I was thrilled to connect with Erica on LinkedIn but little did I know she has a sister, Leslie Ehm.  I met Leslie just as she was launching her book Swagger.  She also has a media background but she's a world renowned trainer (Disney hires her to teach their staff creativity and confidence!) and international speaker. I get constructive feedback about my interview technique during the podcast.  It's a sneak peak of how the live cohort coaching might go. This is the only podcast they have done together and it was an honour to host Ehm2 on PI Day (yes, I'm a math geek). We talk about legacy, mothers, children, social media, worldviews and how reality often forces us to choose differently that we might dream. And yes, I finally asked Erica music question.  I've held off for years but her answers are worth a listen. My favourite part is the end when we get to see the full power of sisterhood when Leslie describes her protective instincts towards her Erica. It's an episode that radiates love. https://ehm2.com/ Erica Ehm - LinkedIn Leslie Ehm - LinkedIn

The pandemic has affected mental wellness for everyone — and teenagers are having a particularly difficult time. Youth unemployment is up. Competitive sports are on hiatus. Adolescents are stuck in a cycle of solitude, screen time, social media and boredom — creating all sorts of mental health problems. Here, Dr. Jack Muskat, Medcan’s psychology team lead, talks with parenting expert and Toronto entrepreneur Erica Ehm about the problems facing teens — and how to help. Links   Ehm is the founder of YMC.ca, a website dedicated to sharing the perspectives of Canadian women with kids. She also founded Ehm & Co, an award-winning digital agency with expertise in the Canadian mom social space. To learn more about Erica Ehm, visit her personal website. Connect with Erica on Twitter and LinkedIn, and on the YMC.ca Facebook group. In a blog post on YMC.ca, Erica discusses the profound shift in women’s roles brought on by the pandemic. She delves into how mothers have had to carry a heavy weight and take on multiple roles since the lockdown.  A story that illustrates how difficult the pandemic has been on teens: Number of youth in hospital after suicide attempt tripled over 4-month period under COVID-19 Signs your child may need more support after the pandemic, from the American Academy of Pediatrics Medcan’s Child & Youth Assessment is designed to provide you and your family with tailored strategies to help your child reach their potential. You and your child will spend valuable time with a child psychologist, physician, exercise physiologist and dietitian to help you understand your child better. This assessment is also appropriate as a first step to explore specific health and wellness concerns. Learn more about Child & Youth Assessments at Medcan.  To book a therapy session with Dr. Jack Muskat or one of the psychologists on his team, go here.   Insights The pandemic has been tough for teens, as well as the parents of teens. Many moms and dads feel that their children have become uncommunicative, and hard to reach. Ehm agrees and provides some tips for what works for her. “One of the best pieces of advice I learned is to talk less, and listen,” Ehm says. Let’s say the parent asks the child, how are you feeling? Often, the child may not answer. But every once in a while, this geyser explodes. Once the child starts talking, validate their feelings, don’t try to solve their problems. “That must be so hard,” is a good response. “Wow, that must be so hard to deal with.” (6:00) Many kids have responded to boredom by spending more time on social media, observes Dr. Muskat. He wonders how a social media expert like Ehm sets boundaries for her kids on apps like Instagram or Snapchat. “How do we figure out what the right rules are?” Ehm’s first advice is, don’t boss them around — because as soon as you say “get off”, they want to get on more. Number two, she says, keep in mind that we're in a pandemic. Pre-COVID, social life meant school encounters, park hangs, sports teams and parties. With much of that gone now, Ehm says, social media represents an important connection to peers. “So my concern about social media is a little lower these days.” Finally, Ehm encourages conversations with your children about what’s happening on social media. “Can you believe that so and so did this?” The idea is to maintain open channels of communication, to grow their critical thinking skills, and to encourage them to realize the power that social media has over them. (10:30) Excellent spin on the parents’ job: “The number one job for parents,” Ehm says, “is to teach your kids to make the right choices when you're not around.” (13:35) Dr. Muskat asks, any advice for parents whose children went into the pandemic immersed in a competitive sport, who now want to give it up? “They’re in a bit of a funk, sitting at home, and now the world is going to open up again but they’ve lost this interest in their sport.” “The pandemic has changed a lot of people,” Ehm says. It’s natural for a kid’s interest to change. So don’t force your kid to do a particular activity. Listen to them. Let them take the lead. A parent cannot force a child into any activity and expect it to be productive. (17:15) The pandemic has not been all bad for the relationships between parents and children. Ehm and her team surveyed 700 moms across Canada about how things have gone in the pandemic. The survey turned up some silver linings. Almost 50% of moms said that they have better relationships with their teens, likely because their teens are not distracted by the lure of their friends. That said, the survey also turned up some troubling elements. Of the women who responded, only 7% describe their COVID state of mind as “doing well,” and 78% say their biggest struggle is worrying about their families’ mental and physical health. (22:40, 24:35)

The legendary Much Music VJ and founder of the Yummy Mummy movement stops by the SOM Session Virtual Studio to talk about her time with Much Music, her podcast, business success and so much more! You're not going to want to miss this empowering industry veteran!

Part 1 of our Muchmusic series features broadcasting legend Erica Ehm. One of the original VJ's of Muchmusic, she shares stories of her time at the station, her amazing writing projects in both music and literature, her new podcast, and how her life has evolved from the days on the "Nation's Music Station".

Episode 23 features a conversation with the iconic Muchmusic veejay, entrepreneur, author, songwriter, TV show host, influencer, mother, and friend to Moms everywhere, Erica Ehm.

As we near the one year mark of this pandemic, the experts are now debating if the Covid virus can be likened to a wave or a forest fire with variants across the country threatening to roll us back into lockdown and dampening spirits everywhere. Women especially are watching this news with increased trepidation since we’ve already been carrying a heavy load and are unsure how much more we can endure. In fact my first guest today shares that only 7% of us claim to be doing well. Erica Ehm from Ehm & Co joins me to share details on a survey her company conducted recently that highlights some disturbing trends amongst moms which includes, but is not limited to less sex, more drinking, less exercise, and definitely more frustration. This is a must listen for all women and anyone who loves a woman. Anne Brodie has the biggest Saturday Night at the Movies ever to share and all I can do is wonder where is all this entertainment coming from. No matter though because tv shows and movies are bright spots in our lives right now, and this week you’ll want to hear Anne’s thoughts on Allen vs. Farrow, a four-part documentary series about Dylan Farrow’s shocking recollections with her adoptive father Woody Allen. Plus a look at Framing Britney Spears on FX and I Care A Lot with Rosamund Pike on Netflix. Samantha Kemp-Jackson joins me to discuss the N Word and yes, you know what n word I speak of. You will definitely want to hear Samantha’s thoughts on free speech, whataboutism, and whether or not there is ever an acceptable time to use that word. Would you ever suspect that systemic racism could show up in how we treat breast cancer in this country? Well as we are all learning, systemic racism is insidious and shows up in everything. Dr. Paula Gordon is one of Canada’s foremost experts on breast cancer and joins me to share how breast cancer affects women of colour, how our system is currently failing them and what we need to do to change it. If you now consider what’s fashionable your daily decision of what top to match with your flannel pjs, perhaps it’s time for a refresher course. Rachel Bristow is a fashion-savvy influencer who has spent the last year seeking out the best Canadian online shops to help us stay on trend, and in a price range we can all afford. Finally, you’d be hard-pressed to find a person who hasn’t been doing some deep thinking about their future and what they’d like to do with it these days. The result is that a lot of women are returning to school to either upgrade their credentials or pursue an entirely new passion. York University anticipates interest in its Masters of Leadership and Community Engagement degree program will be at an all-time high this year and Professor Vidya Shah joins me to share details about this program meant to help shape our world into a better place. You’ll definitely want to stick around to hear this one because the next application period doesn’t open up until 2023 so NOW is the time.

It's safe to say that Growing up Much is something millennials and Gen Xers have in common. Erica Ehm was one of the first batch of VJs to grace Canadian airwaves back when MuchMusic launched in 1984. Her broadcast journey actually began in Montreal in the late 70's when she entered her College into a contest on CHOM-FM to have Max Webster play in the Marianapolis Cafeteria. While her school did not win the contest, Erica did score a job in the CHOM-FM music library, and work and Broadway Live as a DJ where Suggs from Madness crashed on her family's sofa, she saw the GoGo's perform, and Bono told her to go into P.R.In this episode, we talk to Erica Ehm about her journey to MuchMusic, through MuchMusic, and all the creative projects that came after including television, stage productions and songwriting.

Strombo is equal parts punk rocker and social justice warrior. He’s been described as a superstar of MuchMusic and a mama’s boy. He’s had to navigate both failure and adoration, but hasn’t let either define him. Instead he innovates and stays true to himself. George talks about how he started his career in radio and why it continues to be his medium of choice. He tells tales about his early days on MuchMusic and doesn’t hold back about why he thinks Much ultimately failed.

On this episode of Reinvention of the VJ, Erica Ehm gets personal with Jeanne Beker about her experience in a limo with Kiss in the 80’s, the sacrifices she made to host Fashion Television for 27 years, plus the talented but troubled designer she’ll never forget. Though Jeanne Beker would say she's gotten softer over the years compared to the feisty MuchMusic host she once was, she sits down with Erica and sounds stronger than ever. How has she done it? By keeping her feet firmly planted on the ground and being 'down to earth'. Jeanne Beker credits her late parents for being who she is today, teaching her fierce work ethic, never to be afraid and never to give up. Jeanne Beker paved the way for Erica and so many other women in Canadian.

Steve Anthony retired from active broadcasting about a year ago, moved to Prince Edward County, and took his business ventures with him for the ride. He and a wife Tanya who has been riding shotgun with Steve since 1997, have enough stories for a book he says he will never write. I spoke to Steve about his early days at John Abbott College on Montreal's West Island, to his time at 980 CKGM and then down the 401 to work for Gary Slaight at Toronto's Q107. As I spoke to Steve, I learned a few things about the broadcaster that others had told me about. He is loyal, but never to a fault. And the number of other broadcasters he has mentored along the way. We spoke for an hour but we could have gone three. No there is no book in the future but he did hint and some other ventures that are coming.One name that came up during the show was that of Rob Braide. He also played a role in getting another MuchMusic VJ's career started, Erica Ehm. You can seem that video from Boom 97's 97 Seconds Series.

Christopher Ward was one of the first Much Music VJ's. His new book is called Is This Live? Inside the Wild Early Years of Much Music: The Nation's Music Station. There's a lot we forgot or don't know about the station's early years. Partly because not everyone had the channel for the first few years; it was not apart of the basic cable package until 1987. That led to some lean years budget wise. And this is where the genius of programming head John Martin came in: He hired creative types who knew how to fill a blank canvas. Enter Christopher Ward. You can learn a lot from the past. Being challenged by a budget can always be overcome by hiring creative people who can fill the space. Other things I learned: The first female VJ was Catherine McClanahan, (not Erica Ehm) that I once wrote to MuchMusic and complained, and how often Christopher's friend Mike Meyers would appear on the station. Christopher left for reasons that were all too obvious; writing and producing Alannah Myles' number one song in 1989, "Black Velvet". He told me about the joys of having a number one song on his resume.
