Podcasts about Gord

In 2015, rockstar and Canadian icon Gord Downie was given months to live, after doctors found he had a terminal brain tumour. But instead of quietly exiting the stage, Gord and his band, the Tragically Hip, came up with a plan to play 15 shows across 10 of Canada's major cities. Megan Lawton speaks to lead guitarist Rob Baker about the tour and the remarkable final gig that was watched by millions across the country.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.

Gord is back discussing how trucking is the canary in the coal mine you need to be paying attention to. ALP

This week on The Tragically Hip Top 40 Countdown, jD is joined by Sean from Vancouver — a Hip superfan whose personal stories span from watching Gord Downie in Yellowknife to following the band from coast to coast. It's a heartfelt, often hilarious deep-dive into what makes The Hip more than just a band — they're a lifeline, a soundtrack, and for many of us, a guiding presence.Sean shares stories about growing up in Yellowknife, the music video that pulled him in, live show memories (including a wild urinal encounter with Rob Baker), and the time he may have opened for Gord himself at an open mic. This episode is about community, memory, and the shared connection we all feel through The Hip.

Today, for Mother's Day, we have our very own Gord Murray with us to share.

It's episode nineteen of The Tragically Hip Top 40 Countdown and this week we're diving into song #22, — with the beautiful soul that is Sherry from Midland.This one's tender, folks.Sherry brings her whole heart to this conversation — sharing stories of healing, home, Georgian Bay campfires with 12 guitars and 100 people all singing Hip songs under a sky full of stars. She walks us through the magic of hearing song #22 in the hardest year of her life, and how that track became her spiritual anchor.We talk about:• Growing up surrounded by music in Midland, Ontario• Why band merch beats brand merch (hip hoodie > Gucci, any day)• The bluesfest at Wasaga Beach where Gord shouted “I fucking love you”• Watching the final show from home and ugly-crying with pride• Reconciling Canada's colonial past and Gord Downie's role in Indigenous healingSeriously. It's a powerful chat you won't want to miss.

Gord Neal, CEO of World Copper, joins us to talk about the future of copper! Gord shares his extensive experience and background in mining commodities. He emphasized copper's crucial role in the transition to clean energy, particularly for electric vehicles, power grids, and renewable energy infrastructure. Gord also talks about the potential impact of the new U.S. administration on mining policies, and how regulatory streamlining could accelerate domestic production and strengthen U.S. energy security.  We discuss... Gord Neal, CEO of World Copper, has 25 years of experience in mining, specializing in metals like gold, silver, copper, and uranium. He was a founder of Mag Silver, growing it from a $50M to a $2.5B market cap company, and led New Pacific Metals to a $1.2B valuation. Copper is critical for the transition from fossil fuels to electric energy, as EVs and grid upgrades require significantly more copper than traditional vehicles and infrastructure. The supply of copper is insufficient to meet the demand for 2030 and 2050 energy transition goals, requiring urgent increases in mining output. Nuclear power is essential to meeting global energy needs, as wind and solar alone cannot provide sufficient or reliable power. Copper remains the preferred metal for electrical applications due to its conductivity, durability, and cost-effectiveness compared to alternatives like silver. The global copper deficit is around 100M tons, with new mining projects facing long lead times and high costs. The U.S. needs to accelerate mining permits, particularly in copper-rich states like Arizona, to secure domestic supply. The new Trump administration is expected to push for more mining and energy independence, potentially speeding up federal land permitting. Copper demand is rising due to the shift toward electrification, requiring more wiring for vehicles and energy grids. The U.S. power grid requires significant upgrades to support an electric vehicle transition, necessitating vast amounts of copper. The slow progress in energy grid modernization is due to high costs, bureaucratic red tape, and lack of large-scale energy storage solutions. Political and regulatory challenges impact the speed at which mining projects and energy infrastructure can develop.

Is social media fact-checking becoming obsolete? This episode explores Mark Zuckerberg's shift from using professional fact checkers to employing community-driven content moderation on Facebook, mirroring broader changes in digital discourse. Dan and Gord discuss the implications for information sharing, the evolving political landscape, and the potential democratization of online truth verification. Show Notes: Facebook is moving away from professional fact checkers, eliminating partnerships with approximately 90 fact-checking organizations due to perceived political bias. A fundamental political culture shift took place during the recent U.S. federal election. Mark Zuckerberg is adopting a community-driven content moderation approach similar to X (Twitter), implementing "Community Notes" where users can flag and verify information. This shift represents a significant evolution in how digital information is verified and shared across social media platforms. The change could potentially disrupt the business models of existing fact-checking organizations, many of which relied on Facebook contracts. Younger generations have grown up in a hyper-connected world and feel the need to be well-informed, but stepping back from the constant barrage of information on social media can have a positive impact on mental health and productivity. Dan Sullivan's secret to staying focused and productive in the digital age? Treating his attention as his most valuable property (i.e., being highly selective about what information and media he consumes). Podcasts have become the most trusted form of media available today. Resources: The 4 C's Formula  by Dan Sullivan Your Attention: Your Property by Dan Sullivan

Brrr... it's time for everyone's favorite season to have its day in court on the Good Music Show. Today we discuss two albums that make us think of winter.We start with Danny's pick which continues his trend of finding a song that deals with a season, and making the case why the album its on also represents that season. When he heard Song for a Winter's Night by Gordon Lightfoot - a legendary folk singer-songwriter from Canada - he thought it was the perfect non-Christmas song. This album is half new recordings of Gordon's catalog and half compilation of his Warner hits. Though a variety of seasons and weather are represented here, the warmness of both Gord's voice and the production by Lenny Waronker are a perfect sonic stand-in for a crackling fire for those cold, lonely winter months (or in Danny's case, days)Then we talk about an album that to Julius represents the sadness and introspection often brought on by winter. "The Velvet Rope" is a peak in a run of excellent albums by Janet Jackson, who unfortunately doesn't get talked about enough in today's pop ecosystem. We compare this album to current trends in pop, as well as praise the impeccable production by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. Janet's experience at the time of making this album results in many songs dealing with extreme emotions and allows for the listener to experience validation and catharsis through the energetic and crisp production. Now is the time to appreciate what Janet accomplished, despite anything that may have overshadowed her art.Songs featured in this episode:Canadian Railroad Trilogy (from "The Way I Feel" and "Gord's Gold")SundownOld Dan's RecordsGot 'Til It's GoneGot 'TIl It's Gone (Ummah Jay Dee's Revenge Mix)Go DeepMy NeedSend us a text message!You can follow us here: Instagram Twitter Tiktok Send us a message, we'd love to hear from you!

Another week, another epic bunch of stories! 

Another week, another epic bunch of stories! 

This episode of Famous Lost Words is dedicated to legendary Canadian broadcaster John Donabie, who passed away a few days ago. John’s interviews have been prominently featured on Famous Lost Words and he also joined us on a couple of occasions to share his incredible stories. And great broadcaster and a wonderful man, John Donabie will be missed. For this, the last episode of season 10, we have quite a collection of artists. First up is a rather feisty 1988 interview with Canadian legend Gordon Lightfoot. We already have lots of Lightfoot content in the archives, which we put together for our tribute to him upon his passing in 2023 – one of our most listened to episodes. But we came across this 1988 interview just a few days ago – and it’s a good one. Gord is looking back on his career as he approaches his 50th birthday. But Lightfoot is pretty spirited in this chat with Gord James. Next up is a fascinating chat with Todd Rundgren. We’re date stamping these clips at about 1979 as Todd talks about his solo music, his work with the band Utopia and his fascination with new technology, including the early days of music videos. This guy’s mind never stops. Then we have an early ‘80s chat with Pat Benatar as she chats with broadcaster Ingrid Schumacher about life on the road and the price of fame. Plus, we have a special bonus cut as Pat ponders her long-term influence on other aspiring musicians. And we finish up with some Cool Song Facts, and we run the gamut here – with information spanning centuries, from Beethoven to Paul Simon to Earth Wind & Fire. Famous Lost Words, hosted by Christopher Ward and Tom Jokic, is heard in more than 100 countries worldwide and on radio stations across Canada, including Newstalk 1010 Toronto, CJAD 800 Montreal, 580 CFRA Ottawa, AM 800 CKLW Windsor, 610 CKTB St Catharines, CFAX Victoria, AM1150 Kelowna and 91x in Belleville. It is in the Top 20% of worldwide podcasts based on the number of listeners in the first week.

Let's cut to the chase - managing teams and projects can be a huge time suck for results-driven quick-starts like you and me. It just isn't efficient. I was talking to Dan Sullivan about this and he shared The 4x4 Method that has the power to move your team beyond traditional management and empower them to take ownership of their roles. With this tool, you can move away from top-down management and create a culture where everyone is a leader and contributor. The 4x4 Method has four performance metrics with four participation metrics: Performance: How are you showing up? Are you alert, curious, responsive, and resourceful? It's about being proactive, not just going through the motionsResults: How are you making things faster, easier, cheaper, and bigger? This is all about innovation and efficiency. Being a Hero: How are you going above and beyond to create real value for the company? Think about how you can make a significant impactWhat Drives Me Crazy: This is the "what not to do" list. It's about avoiding things like falling behind, being isolated, and just following orders without any initiative4x4 participation is voluntary, but non-participation will be noticedComplete an updated 4x4 every quarter4x4s are posted online for full transparency$250 incentive each quarter ($1000/year) for those who complete the 4x4 each quarter KEY TAKEAWAYS[00:00:18] I used AI to create an updated incentive program that's based on the 4x4 framework Dan has been using for over 10 years in Strategic Coach[00:01:32] The 4x4 Framework is designed to get your team thinking about their roles in a whole new way.[00:04:39] Invite people to participate in the 4x4 process voluntarily, but non-participation is going to be noticed. This is all about creating ownership. The whole company should do this every quarter. It's not a one-off thing. It's about how they will perform, show up, and the results they'll achieve. We're talking about being alert, curious, responsive, resourceful. And the results are faster, easier, cheaper, and bigger.[00:07:55] Dan shares how he used the 4x4 with Gord Vickman when he first came on board. He got a page outlining how he could be a "hero", and what would drive Dan crazy. He says that one of the things that would drive him crazy is when someone is isolated and disconnected. You have to be specific with your expectations.[00:08:54] Gord comes on to talk about his experience with the 4x4, and he says it felt like getting the answers to the exam. The 4x4 gave him a clear idea of what was expected, which is more than a typical job description.[00:11:43] The 4x4 is broken into four sections:Performance: How you show up – alert, curious, responsive, resourceful.Results: Faster, easier, cheaper, bigger.Being a hero: This is open for interpretation, but it's about creating value.What drives me crazy: Specific things to avoid.[00:12:57] I used Ai to generate 4x4s for my team and then create an updated incentive program for them. I had a dialogue with it on exactly what kind of new incentive program we could have. Ai can save you days of work, but you need a framework like the 4x4 to make the psychology accurate.[00:16:46] Dan's incentive strategy for 2025 offers team members $250/quarter for filling out their 4x4s and posting them online. It's about creating a company-wide focus, transparency, accountability, and focus. It helps team members see what works.[00:19:22] SNEAK PEAK: I demonstrate how to use Ai with forms – I take a quick picture, drop it into ChatGPT, and have ChatGPT fill it out. (This saves HOURS.) [00:21:40] Dan explains that by making the 4x4s public, people will naturally see who is being specific and measurable in their goals. It's a way of learning without having a class, that will help team members become more specific and practical.[00:23:14] The 4x4 process will help you build a self-managing company because self-managing companies are built from self-managing individuals.[00:23:55] The fourth quadrant (what drives you crazy) is not something to be feared. It's like a tiger cage - you have to try hard to get yourself in there.[00:34:42] The 4x4 process helps us move towards the mindset of "How can I be a hero to the customer and the company?” The "hero" objectives are fun, they allow you to make guesses and bets about what could work.[00:41:18] The goal is for this to be a process where the players will show up to play and give people who've never been heard from a chance to develop themselves. Surprising benefits include a shift in the culture and mindsets. This 4x4 system is a game-changer for building self-managing teams that are accountable and produce real results.Want to join me for a Cup of Coffee at my Digital Cafe?  Meet 1:1 for a virtual session, where we'll spend 30 minutes brainstorming your “Next Act”, next big opportunity, or biggest challenge you want solved.
