Jake Richards joins the show this week for an in-person interview. Jake is a certified sommelier who is currently working at Loloan Lobby Bar in Waterloo, Ontario. Jake got his start in the Industry at the age of 12 when he landed his first job at a pizza restaurant and he's been employed in the industry ever since. In our conversation with Jake, he talks about his first steps in becoming a sommelier when he had an accidental injury early in his career. While not being able to work on his feet, Jake enrolled in a sommelier training program and his career took off from there. Jake talks about the rigorous training involved, such as developing a strong sensory memory, and the art of guiding customer to discover new wines and spirits and the importance of creating a welcoming, unpretentious experience for customers. We also talk about the challenges of running a niche liquor business, especially in a smaller market like Kitchener-Waterloo, the challenges of working in the restaurant industry, including dealing with no show reservations. In the closing minutes of the show, we reference a tv show that we couldn't recall the name of during the recording - the show is named ‘Drops of God' and we finish off with a humorous anecdote about Jakes first customer that he encountered in his very first serving role in his career.

It's Opposite Day With Rob Lewin!!! This episode is very exciting because it is opposite day with Rob Lewin! Rob is an improviser and sketch comedian living in Guelph, Ontario. His live comedy credits include The Second CityToronto FamCo,The Making-Box Brigade, The Bad Dog Featured Players and festivals such as Toronto Sketchfest, Detroit Improv Festival, Del Close Marathon NYC, and Montreal Improv Festival. He teaches improv and sketch classes with Pinch and you see his sketch duo Corpse perform around Guelph and Kitchener-Waterloo. Unlike every other (wonderful) Comedicine guest, who is a health care professional first and then transitions into comedy, Rob has been improvising since before his brain was fully formed. (Grade 9!) Rob is currently in his second year of the Practical Nursing program at Conestoga College. Yes, he is going to keep on doing improv, sketch and teaching improv AND doing nursing, but not at the same time. Would it be cool to teach nurses about improv with his background? Maybe it would, but that's not what Rob is doing here people! Have a listen, Rob is a wonderful improviser, comedian and human and he whoever ends up with him as their nurse and/or in his audience and/orin his improv class is very lucky!!!Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/rob.lewin/Thanks for listening to Comedicine!

While average residential sale prices are likely to increase in the majority markets analyzed, there are a couple of outliers where prices are anticipated to be flat or decline, including Toronto, Hamilton, Burlington, Kitchener-Waterloo, Charlottetown, North Bay and London, it said. The report said 25 per cent of Canadians expressed that saving for a home purchase is one of their top three priorities when it comes to financial savings, despite high cost of living and affordability challenges. In a video interview, Christopher Alexander, President of RE/MAX Canada, talks about the company's latest report – the Fall Housing Market Outlook. The video can be seen here. PRESS RELEASE TORONTO, Sept. 3, 2024 /CNW/ — With the long-anticipated decline in interest rates finally starting to materialize, early indicators from RE/MAX brokers and agents across Canada suggest steady housing market activity this fall. Average sale prices across all housing types are expected to increase between one and six per cent in the majority of regions by year's end, according to RE/MAX's 2024 Fall Housing Market Outlook. Ahead of the next Bank of Canada (BoC) interest rate announcement on September 4, two in 10 Canadians (16 per cent) said they will feel more comfortable engaging in the real estate market once they see there is more than a 100-basis-point cut to the BoC's lending rate between now and the end of the year, according to a Leger survey commissioned by RE/MAX as part of the report. Chris Alexander “The fall market is usually a good early indicator for activity as we look ahead to early 2025, and we're headed toward more healthy territory. With interest rates starting to ease, buyers are beginning to come off the sidelines,” says Christopher Alexander, President, RE/MAX Canada. “That's not to say the fall market will be in full swing according to historic standards. Consumers will drive that trend, so we'll need to see a bigger move by the Bank of Canada for that to happen.” Consumer Sentiments Going into the Fall Market Ahead of further anticipated interest rate cuts by the Bank of Canada, it seems that even the mere prospect of lower rates has boosted confidence among first-time homebuyers, with one-quarter of Canadians (25 per cent) actively saving for a home purchase and confident they will be able to buy soon (with the majority being younger Millennials and Gen Zs aged 18-24, at 35 per cent). On the flipside, dropping interest rates now may prove too little, too late for some current homeowners, with 14 per cent saying they need to renew their mortgage soon, and with the current higher interest rate, they may need to sell their home. When it comes to financial savings, the Leger survey revealed that while a home purchase is listed among the top three priorities for 25 per cent of Canadians, it has taken a back seat to day-to-day expenses such as utilities and food (58 per cent), and travel (45 per cent). In the search for affordability, one-quarter of Canadians say that they are considering moving to another country (28 per cent) and 25 per cent say they are reconsidering whether to have children or start a family due to housing affordability challenges. “Despite some consumer confidence starting to return to the market this season, the reality is Canadians are still grappling with some serious housing affordability challenges rooted in lack of supply. Yes, borrowing is becoming less expensive, but this won't make housing affordable in the long run,” says Alexander. “Markets ebb and flow, and as buyers re-enter the market and absorb inventory, we'll see more upward pressure on price. “Ultimately, for the long-term health of Canada's housing market, we need a national housing strategy developed in collaboration between all levels of government, that's more strategic and visionary in how we can use existing lands and real estate to boost supply. In the meantime, buyers would be wise to work with an experienced real estate agent to help navigate those cyclical market ups and downs that often accompany this push and pull of supply and demand.” Regional Market Insights As part of the 2024 Fall Housing Market Outlook Report, RE/MAX brokers and agents in Canada were asked to share an analysis of their local market between January and July 2023 and 2024 and share their estimated outlook for fall 2024. The majority of regions (76 per cent) anticipate an increase in sale price between one to six per cent, including Greater Vancouver Area, BC; Calgary, AB; Edmonton, AB; Saskatoon, SK; Winnipeg, MB; Halifax, NS; St. John's Metro, NL; Truro/Colchester, NS; Fredericton, NB; Timmins, ON; Sudbury, ON; Brampton, ON; Mississauga, ON; Niagara, ON; Ottawa, ON; Durham, ON; Barrie, ON; Muskoka, ON; Peterborough, ON; York Region, ON; Kingston, ON; Windsor, ON, and Thunder Bay, ON. Exceptions to the upward trend include Toronto, ON; Hamilton, ON; Burlington, ON; and Kitchener-Waterloo, ON, where a moderate decline between two and three per cent is expected, and Charlottetown, PEI; North Bay, ON, and London, ON, where prices will likely remain flat. When it comes to listings, a majority of regions surveyed (82 per cent) saw the number of listings increase between 2.3 and 34.7 per cent between January and July (2023 – 2024). The number of sale transactions also increased between 3.1 and 7.4 per cent in Atlantic Canada, 3.4 to 30.9 per cent in Western Canada, and between 0.6 and 14.8 per cent in Ontario, except for some larger Ontario markets like Toronto, Brampton, Durham Region, Mississauga, Peterborough and York Region, where sales trended downward. According to RE/MAX brokers' insights, 33 per cent of housing markets are expected to be seller's markets, but this may shift as competition increases and market conditions evolve. To view the regional data table, click here. Western Canada and Prairies The Prairies continue to skew towards a seller's market (Edmonton, AB; Calgary, AB; Saskatoon, SK) which is consistent with 2023, except for Winnipeg, MB, which is a balanced market. On the other hand, in Western Canada, inclusive of the Greater Vancouver Area, BC, and Kelowna, BC, a mix of balanced and buyer's markets are anticipated. Heading into the fall, prices are forecasted to increase by two to six per cent in regions like the Greater Vancouver Area, BC, and Kelowna, BC; Calgary, AB; Edmonton, AB; Saskatoon, SK; and Winnipeg, MB. Sale transactions are anticipated to increase by five to 15 per cent in the Greater Vancouver Area, BC; Edmonton, AB; and Winnipeg, MB; and a decrease of one per cent in Saskatoon, SK, due to inventory shortages, while Calgary, AB anticipates sales will remain flat. RE/MAX broker feedback in Regina, SK indicates that many factors will dictate how the market pans out for the remainder of the year, including government election cycles, The Bank of Canada interest rate announcements and inventory levels. Historically, Regina, SK sees the markets cool from mid-September through the end of the year. All markets in Western Canada and The Prairies – apart from the Greater Vancouver Area, BC – continue to experience supply challenges, with increased activity in the market, as consumers benefit from recent interest rate cuts. Lower mortgage rates have bolstered consumer confidence in the market but paired with low supply, RE/MAX brokers and agents in the region are reporting aggressive offers in conjunction with sellers raising asking prices for residential homes. Ontario Despite The Bank of Canada's interest rate cuts, low housing supply continues to impact multiple markets across Ontario, keeping prices high. However, some buyers are gaining more confidence as mortgage rates decrease and are slowly re-entering the market heading into fall, keeping prices relatively stable in comparison to the year prior. Housing supply is expected to become a larger issue once further interest rate cuts motivate buyers on the sidelines to re-enter the market and spark more competition. Although some homebuyer confidence is starting to return, buyers in Toronto remain hesitant as affordability continues to be a challenge, especially for first-time homebuyers. Across Ontario, 12 regions are expecting average residential prices to remain flat or increase modestly heading into the fall. Increasing markets include Timmins, Sudbury, Brampton, Mississauga, Thunder Bay, and Barrie (each rising five per cent), Peterborough, York Region and Kingston (rising three per cent), Niagara (up two per cent), Durham Region and Ottawa (up one per cent), and London (rising a nominal 0.5 per cent). The outliers to this upward trend are Toronto, Kitchener-Waterloo, Hamilton, and Burlington, which are expecting a price decrease. In Ontario, seven markets are expected to experience balanced conditions this fall, while four are anticipated to be seller's markets, and five are buyer's markets. Four markets are expecting a mix, with three buyers/balanced conditions, and one sellers/balanced market. Atlantic Canada Echoing similarities to other regions across Canada, Atlantic Canada is also reporting low inventory supply and increased competition when it comes to buyer activity. Buyers are competing aggressively on affordable housing and new listings, causing prices to spike. This is likely a result of current supply challenges and an increase in out-of-town buyers from Western and Central Canada. Unlike in 2023, average residential prices in Atlantic Canada are expected to increase for the remainder of year, by five per cent in Truro and Colchester, NS, one per cent in Halifax, NS, 1.5 per cent in St. John's Metro, NL, and two per cent in Fredericton, NB, while Charlottetown, PEI is anticipated to remain flat. All markets in Atlantic Canada with the exception of Charlottetown – which is a buyer's market – are considered to be seller's markets. Quebec Like other regions across the country, Montreal's housing shortage coupled with interest rates have resulted in a seller's market, with buyers making multiple offers on properties to remain competitive or opting to wait on the sidelines. Pricing and marketing are crucial for sellers looking to attract hesitant buyers. Additional survey findings: Majority of Canadians (77 per cent) believe steps taken by municipal, provincial, and federal governments to improve housing inventory and affordability are not enough to solve our affordability crisis and more needs to be done 60 per cent of Canadians believe building more diverse types of housing are the key to solving Canada's housing supply challenges For 16 per cent of Canadians, rising cost-of-living and affordability challenges have not deterred them at all, and they plan to purchase another home beyond their primary residence soon (or have recently) 40 per cent of Canadians feel Canada is one of the best countries in the world to purchase/invest in real estate (notably this number is higher at 52 per cent, for new Canadians that have been in Canada for less than 5 years) One-third of Canadians (32 per cent) said they are relying on their home as their only financial plan for retirement.

Thomas Lacey was born on November 4, 1895, in Glossop, Derbyshire, England. His journey into the spiritual world began early in life, leading to a lifetime of mediumship. On March 18, 1918, he married Edith Emma Lomas in Whitfield. Edith, born on September 28, 1895, was not a medium herself, but she played a vital role in supporting Thomas's work. In the early 1920s, the Laceys made a significant move to Canada—settling in the Kitchener-Waterloo region. It was here in 1924 that Thomas began conducting séances, with Edith actively participating. Throughout the 1960s, Thomas and Edith held séances in the home of Otto and Nelda Smith in Kitchener with attendees reporting experiencing apports, materialisations, automatic writing, and even Electronic Voice Phenomena (EVP). My Special Guest Is Dr. Nick Richbell Dr. Nick Richbell recently received his PhD in History from the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada. His area of research is the history of Spiritualism, and his doctoral dissertation is a biographical history about the medium Maurice Barbanell and his guide, Silver Birch. The teachings of Silver Birch are still talked about in Spiritualist churches today, however, Maurice Barbanell's name is rarely mentioned. Nick has long believed that there is more to life than an earthly existence. However, it was not until he started work as the Head of Special Collections and Archives at the University of Waterloo Library that he started to further consider the afterlife. The archives had two séance related collections. The Maines-Pincock Family collection holds records of seances conducted by the American medium William Cartheuser in the private home of Jenny O'Hara Pincock in St. Catharines, Ontario. Another collection, the Thomas Lacey Lecture collection contains over 400 lectures given by Lacey while in trance. Nick was able to bring in a new Lacey collection during his tenure at Waterloo: the Thomas Lacey séance collection: over 100 reel-to-reel tapes from the 1960s of recordings of seances conducted by Lacey in a Kitchener, Ontario home. He is often invited to give talks about his research about this magnificent collection. Nick was the research associate on the audio-documentary, The Ghost of Thomas Lacey, produced by Anthroscope Media. Originally from London, England, Nick is currently the Head of Special Collections and Archives at Clemson University in South Carolina. Prior to moving to South Carolina, Nick oversaw the Special Collections and Archives department at the University of Waterloo in Ontario. He also managed the archives of the Canadian Pacific Railway in Montreal and worked at the McGill University Archives as well as the McGill University Health Centre.
