The housing debate deepens as opposing voices tackle the thorniest questions in Vancouver's affordability crisis. In part two, UBC lecturer Erick Villagomez and Wesgroup CEO Beau Jarvis continue the dialogue with Adam & Matt, diving into Canada's $2 trillion capital shortage, foreign investment overcorrections, and whether investors are destroying or saving the city. The clash intensifies over speculation policies and Beau's explosive claim that strip malls next to SkyTrain stations are now worth more than their development potential. Where did we go wrong? Both examine alternative housing models and question where public money actually goes while confronting aging rental stock facing impossible economics. Can Vancouver's housing system function when the numbers don't work for anyone? Are real estate investors providing a service or destroying our city? And what happens when filtering theory meets displacement reality? Don't miss the conclusion of this revealing two-part conversation.

On today's show Ryan and Rick set up the Canucks final pre season game against the Oilers, chat about the pending roster decisions and Rick shares his love for pumpkin seeds.Joining the show is Thomas Drance (17:03) and Bob Stauffer (49:33). 

The Herle Burly was created by Air Quotes Media with support from our presenting sponsor TELUS, as well as CN Rail, PSAC, and the Ontario Real Estate Association.Greetings, you curiouser and curiouser Herle Burly-ites! A topic today we've been exploring from a few different angles these last few months: can Canada build (baby build) housing anymore?We convened a panel on it back in the early summer to talk policy and what's happening in the real world – Meredith, Moffat and Butler. We had the Conservative housing critic on the pod, Scott Aitchison, who gave us his take on what needs to be done.Today, we get the government's view of things with the Honourable Gregor Robertson, Canada's Minister of Housing and Infrastructure.Mr. Robertson has a long and impressive CV, so please pardon my drastic précis here: He served as the Mayor of Vancouver for a decade, 2008 to 2018, where his focus was on transit and cycling infrastructure ... introducing modular housing to support unhoused residents ... leading on co-ops and supportive housing ... and starting the country's first successful empty homes tax. Prior to that, he was a Member of the B.C. Legislature for 3 years, 2005-2008. As well as the Co-Founder and CEO of “Happy Planet” Organic Foods.So, we're going to talk about this new government agency “Build Canada Homes” and how it plans to “supercharge housing construction across Canada”. How will the programs work? What's the timeline for success in a crisis?  And we'll get Mr. Robertson's view on why he thinks government is the solution to this problem when most people think government IS the problem.Thank you for joining us on #TheHerleBurly podcast.

 In this episode of The Healers Café, Manon Bolliger, FCAH, RBHT (facilitator and retired naturopath with 30+ years of practice) speaks to Mike who emphasized the importance of accurate pain assessment and the potential impact of psychological factors like placebo effect. Tony's injury from swimming surprisingly reduced his chronic pain, suggesting a link between acute and chronic pain management. Mike suggested alternative pain-inducing activities to potentially aid healing. For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/mike-sententia2         Highlights from today's episode include: Mike and the importance of honest feedback from clients—encouraging them to report truthfully even when a technique doesn't work, as this helps practitioners refine and improve their healing methods. Mike explains the shift from using the term “suppress” to “neutralize” or “cancel out” energy signatures, to better describe his pain reduction technique and avoid negative connotations. Manon explains the need for thorough, transparent assessment and follow-up of pain intensity and frequency, so practitioners and clients have accurate benchmarks to measure healing progress.   ABOUT MIKE SENTENTIA: I'm Mike. After studying and practicing energy healing 20+ years, I've developed a unique system of energy healing, specifically designed for chronic pain conditions. I'm truly so grateful for every client who's placed their faith in me and who I've been able to help get back to doing what they love most over the past two decades. They're the reason I do this work! In addition to being an energy healer for chronic pain, I'm also a science geek and love reading research. My books cover holistic care techniques that actually work, and the evidence behind them. Core purpose/passion: The mission of Healing Lab is to see Energy Healing integrated into mainstream medical practice and to see it covered by insurance in the same way that acupuncture is becoming. We know there is modern science behind energy healing even if we don't fully understand all the mechanisms yet.

But obscurity is forever." - Michael BubléMichael Bublé has sold over 75 million albums worldwide, headlined massive tours, and built an empire that spans music, television, and luxury brand partnerships. Yet in this brutally honest conversation, he reveals the insecurity that still haunts him twenty years into his career - and why he deliberately chose to stay in Vancouver with his high school friends instead of moving to LA where the industry could have swallowed him whole. When he admits his wife has more Instagram followers than him and that his kids don't consider him as successful as some 20-year-old with 60 million followers, you hear the vulnerability that most celebrities would never dare share publicly.What makes this conversation so powerful isn't just Bublé's willingness to expose his doubts, but his hard-earned wisdom about separating who you are from what you do. He breaks down the difference between being successful and being perceived as successful, why he had to make the conscious choice to stay grounded, and how he's learned that the metrics of success keep changing but your character doesn't have to. This is a masterclass in maintaining authenticity when the whole world is trying to change you, told by someone who's managed to stay himself for two decades in an industry that eats people alive.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

How do you build a professional women's hockey league from the ground up — and convince the sport's best players, skeptical investors, and hungry fans that this time it's built to last? CBC Sports journalist Karissa Donkin, author of "Breakaway: The PWHL and the Women Who Changed the Game," helps us dive into the backstory of the incredible Professional Women's Hockey League. Donkin traces the roots of the PWHL back to the collapse of the Canadian Women's Hockey League in 2019 and the rise of the Professional Women's Hockey Players' Association, whose “Dream Gap” tours kept women's hockey in the spotlight when no stable league existed. She also unpacks the complicated legacy of North American professional women's leagues: the original National Women's Hockey League (1999–2007), and the later NWHL launched in 2015 — the first U.S.-based league to pay salaries — which eventually rebranded as the Premier Hockey Federation (PHF). The overlap of these leagues, combined with the PWHPA's touring circuit, splintered talent and divided attention, but it also highlighted what was missing: a single, unified, and financially sustainable league. These years of struggle, advocacy, and experimentation ultimately set the stage for the PWHL's 2023 launch. We'll explore how the Mark Walter Group, Billie Jean King, and a coalition of powerful allies turned that vision into reality, and why the league's first collective bargaining agreement matters so much for players seeking true professional standards. Donkin also unpacks the drama and exhilaration of the inaugural 2024 season — from record-breaking crowds to the intensity of Boston–Montreal showdowns — and explains how the league is balancing rapid growth with the need for long-term sustainability. Finally, we look ahead: what does expansion to markets like Vancouver and Seattle mean for the league's future? How will the PWHL navigate the ongoing battles for sponsorship, broadcast exposure, and cultural relevance in a crowded sports marketplace? And most importantly, how will the next generation of girls growing up with the PWHL on TV — and in their hometown arenas — reshape what professional hockey looks like in North America? + + +   SUPPORT THE SHOW:  Buy Us a Coffee: https://ko-fi.com/goodseatsstillavailable The "Good Seats" Store: https://www.teepublic.com/?ref_id=35106 BUY THE BOOK (AND SUPPORT THE SHOW!): "Breakaway: The PWHL and the Women Who Changed the Game": https://amzn.to/3IL81bu SPONSOR THANKS (AND SUPPORT THE SHOW!):  Old School Shirts.com (10% off promo code: GOODSEATS): https://oldschoolshirts.com/goodseats Royal Retros (10% off promo code: SEATS): https://www.503-sports.com?aff=2 FIND AND FOLLOW: Linktree: https://linktr.ee/GoodSeatsStillAvailable Web: https://goodseatsstillavailable.com/ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/goodseatsstillavailable.com X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/GoodSeatsStill YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@goodseatsstillavailable Threads: https://www.threads.net/@goodseatsstillavailable Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/goodseatsstillavailable/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GoodSeatsStillAvailable/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/good-seats-still-available/

In 2017, a climber was murdered outside of Squamish. His body was found with gunshot wounds, inside a smoldering, burnt vehicle. He was suspected to be the climber known as Jesse James, a Squamish dirtbag who made his mark on the scene, both in real life and online. In fact, it took three years for investigators to discover his real name and his incredible and sordid past. Who was this person really and what clues did his past reveal about who killed him—or why? Steven Chua is a freelance journalist based in Vancouver. He's a rock climber, and the host of Dirtbag Climber, a new true-crime podcast from the CBC's Uncover. This riveting new podcast peels back the layers of Jess James, a former neo-nazi turned crypto king dirtbag climbing outlaw. But first, your well-intentioned hosts try to breathe a bit of positivity into the world by shining our lights on several climbing stories that are all good and about which nothing negative can be said. Today's final bit comes from climber, OG Stone Monkey, public speaker and purveyor of joy, just like us, Timmy O'Neill. He is also the sometimes touring drummer for the Surf Rock Duo, Par Avion. Featured is the track Bikini Beach Bash recorded live at the Eldorado in downtown Carbondale CO.
