Blamison are back with a totally unchill discussion of 1991's John Hughes-written Target ad Career Opportunities starring Jennifer Connelly (be still Jamison's heart) and Frank Whaley. There are several aspects of the film that would have made for a great film, but, alas, it all comes to, well, not much. Meet-cute beats out capitalist satire by the end of the film. Other things discussed: how work sucks, parenting wily children and the Mulroney brothers.Clip: "K-Strass the yo-yo man on KQTV in St. Joseph, Missouri." on Youtube.

Greg Brady and the panel of: Ben Mulroney, Host of the Ben Mulroney Show 9 to Noon on the Corus Radio Network Ana Bailao, former Toronto city councillor, deputy mayor, housing expert Discuss: 1.One person dead after North York encampment fire: City left this encampment standing for months, was there no safe way to clear the site without real housing to offer? With every encampment blaze tying up dozens of firefighters, cops, and paramedics, are we spending more on emergency response than it would cost to house people safely in the first place? The mayor insists we must get people indoors after this tragedy but where are they going to go? 2.Police investigating Oshawa swarming attack advocates say may have been hate-motivated: If no slurs were heard but the hijab was yanked off, is it assault, hate crime, both? Durham police say they're considering hate motivation; Muslim advocates insist the motive is obvious. Who gets to decide what constitutes hate in Canada, investigators, courts or the targeted community? Time to make changes to the youth justice act? Should parents/guardians be held accountable? 3.After bomb threats at Canadian airports, services now back to ‘normal': Should NAV Canada publish at least a redacted threat summary once the RCMP rules nothing suspicious so the public knows what really happened?

Greg Brady and the panel of: Ben Mulroney, Host of the Ben Mulroney Show 9 to Noon on the Corus Radio Network Ana Bailao, former Toronto city councillor, deputy mayor, housing expert Discuss: 1.Ana - perfect person to ask about multiplex development, and the watered-down six-plex legislation the city passed 17-7…but the dreaded words “pilot project” - feels like we do this so often - and it, can, in essence, make for a “boss” or “king/queen” in each particular city Ward - is that fair? To follow - there is noise, I can report, within the federal Liberal caucus about the word “blackmail” being used by Councillor Paula Fletcher about the requirement and regulations to get federal HAF $. Some advocates for housing are strongly suggesting the feds don't give the remaining $ to the city given they're not meeting prerequisites. What could happen here? 2.The socialist madness of Zohran Mamdani is a spreading contagion: Are there parallels to Toronto's mayoral race? Could this happen here? Some of his ideas are out there and extreme but are they all bad? 3.Toronto to install larger, more visible signs to warn drivers of speed cameras: Mayor wants larger signs, directed funding, and a limit on the number of infractions you can rack up before you get your first speeding ticket in the mail but could the problem be that some posted limits be unrealistically low in some areas?

Greg Brady and the panel of: Ben Mulroney, Host of the Ben Mulroney Show on 640 Toronto and nationally on teh Corus Talk Network Tara Henley,  co-host - The Hub podcast Discuss: 1 - Mark Carney is the next Prime Minister of Canada - the Liberals have come out of this more unified, more decisive, and this was clearly their best choice. Trudeau being their worst, Freeland the 2nd worst - SO…..I think we'd agree, would we, the Conservatives know they're in much more of a fight than they ever anticipated back in December, yes? 2 - Chrystia Freeland - once deemed by some, the clear “next one up” after Justin Trudeau, received a pathetic 8 percent of the vote in the leadership - what are your observations of the role she played in getting this all happening, her campaign itself, the few MPs who backed her, and the end result? 3 - Doug Ford gave a rather noteworthy congrats to Carney - there's always that sense Ford loved having Justin Trudeau as a contrast to him…..does this start any sense that Ford would love that contrast by Carney carrying on as PM as long as possible…or does it matter given Ford now doesn't have to worry about an election until 2029? 4 - This Toronto/Scarborough shooting Friday evening - unbelievably rattling - are we ALMOST to the point where we shrug our shoulders about guns in major cities like Toronto…..and just be thankful no one was hurt? AND….back to policy - this was one where the CPC were just destroying the “soft on crime, bail not jail” Liberals - you would think people will understand not much will change re: illegal guns/violence/bail and parole issues without a change in Ottawa, yes?

Greg Brady and the panel of: Ben Mulroney, Host of The Ben Mulroney Show Ariella Kimmel, executive director of a new advocacy group called A Better City (ABC) Toronto Eric Lombardi, Founder of More Neighbours Toronto Discuss: 1. Lots of labour unions stepping up & wanting to take on the city of Toronto for a better deal - right now, inside workers w/ a pending Monday strike, now, library workers - the city has told its citizens they want to give everyone a place to live, make it more affordable, a warmer, more caring city - so aren't the unions right to push the City hard to dig in 2. Do we expect a more quiet week next week w/ tariffs? Republicans are buzzing with some discontent, markets were unsettled, surely every week just can't be like THIS week was... at contract time? 3. So - it's an easy win for Mark Carney and he'll be the next PM - what are first steps for him, and is one of them an Election call next week? Learn more about your ad choices.

Greg Brady & the panel of: Ben Mulroney, Host of the Ben Mulroney Show, 9 - Noon on 640 Toronto Eric Lombardi, Founder of More Neighbours Toronto Discuss: 1 - A 3rd straight majority for the Ford government. Bottom line - people LIKE him. They like him more than some of the policies, and certainly more than some of the results - so how do opposition parties figure out how to beat him? 2 - we all may have underestimated the NDP's seat count - popular vote went into the tank, but they held ridings - can we credit Marit Stiles for this? She did the RIGHT thing dumping Sarah Jama in Hamilton Centre. Jama deserved to be turfed….for several things out there in the public eye, and more that we don't. I think a more moderate NDP is the only way to be successful….but what credit do you give her? 3 - I don't think Bonnie Crombie takes the party into the 2029 Election….agree or disagree? AND that's not to say it won't be her choice, and it's not to say she didn't breathe some life into a pretty lifeless entity after 2022. Learn more about your ad choices.

This episode of The Food Professor podcast features Michael LeBlanc and Sylvain Charlebois in conversation with Nicholas Mulroney, co-founder and CEO of Bond Bakery Brands.

His company invests in family-run bakeries to preserve their legacy and foster innovation. Presented by Caddle. Mulroney shares insights into Bond Bakery Brands' mission of integrating family values into business operations while embracing sustainability and innovation. The conversation highlights the challenges of managing bakeries during the pandemic and the company's efforts to scale operations. Mulroney explains their emphasis on customer-focused innovation, particularly their ability to adapt quickly to market demands and trends, such as their success with cake pops at Coco Bakery.A notable segment highlights Alex Cooper, host of the popular Call Her Daddy podcast, and her launch of the recovery beverage Unwell. This move represents the growing trend of media personalities extending their brands into consumer productsThe hosts explore the rise of podcasters and influencers in the food and beverage space, drawing comparisons to other successful ventures like Prime Hydration by YouTubers Logan Paul and KSI, which has reached a $1.2 billion valuation. They reflect on the potential for Unwell to disrupt the beverage market, leveraging Cooper's massive audience and savvy branding. The product, aimed at recovery for fast-paced lifestyles, taps into health-conscious and millennial consumer trends, making it an intriguing addition to major retailers like Target in the U.S. Additional topics include the demise of Hershey Canada's iconic Cherry Blossoms candy, salmonella outbreaks, and emerging consumer trends. The hosts wrap up with reflections on the role of podcasts and influencers in marketing, congratulating Walmart Canada's new CEO, Vanessa Yates, and celebrating industry innovation. This engaging episode combines practical business insights with commentary on pressing food industry issues.About NicolasNicolas Mulroney co-founded Bond Bakery Brands in 2020, bringing together his passion for food, his interest in growing companies, and his vision to build a better bakery company.The journey into the bakery industry happened by chance, with the investment in Portofino Bakery. Envisioning the company as Canada's next premier commercial artisan bakery, Nicolas, his co-founders, and a group of supportive investors acquired the company in 2019. Since then, Nicolas and his team have made five strategic investments across Canada, exclusively targeting family- and founder-run bakery companies.When the pandemic disrupted the world in March 2020, Nicolas saw an opportunity to make a meaningful impact. Responding to the immediate need for food in local shelters, pallets of bakery products were delivered overnight to communities in need. This became the genesis for Bond Bakery Brands and the vision for an impact-driven bakery company.Prior to his role as Chairman & CEO of Bond Bakery Brands, Nicolas ran a private investment company, Northern Waters Capital Ltd. From 2017-2019, Nicolas was a Vice President, Corporate Development, and Strategic Initiatives for a publicly traded cemetery and funeral home company. It was in this role that Nicolas came to understand the power of an acquisition platform in traditional industries. Nicolas' journey also included roles within a Canadian investment bank, where serendipitously, he met his co-founders, Cameron and Matthew.Residing in Toronto, ON, with his wife Katy and four children, Nicolas finds joy outside of work in a familiar place. When not immersed in bakery-related matters at work, he's crafting pizzas in his backyard or perfecting his chocolate chip cookie recipe. Beyond the food industry, Nicolas indulges in his passion for running and golf, rounding out a blend of professional and personal pursuits. The Food Professor #podcast is presented by Caddle.
