Podcasts about Nova Scotia

In April of 2020, while the rest of the world fixated on the terrifying early days of the Covid pandemic, a 51-year-old denturist in rural Nova Scotia launched one of the deadliest mass shootings in North American history — murdering 22 people across 13 horrifying hours while disguised as a Royal Canadian Mounted Police officer. We dive deep into the shocking failures, bizarre details, and devastating human stories behind these attacks: a case involving fake police cars, burning homes, biker gang rumors, domestic violence, smuggling, and a law enforcement response so chaotic it still fuels outrage and conspiracy theories years later.

May 31, 2026: They say the fires at Caledonia Mills started on their own, but anyone who spent a night there knew something far more sinister was at work.==========HOUR ONE: “The Witching Hour of 3AM” *** You don't have to go to a cemetery or haunted house to experience the supernatural. You don't need to drive a cursed road to encounter a ghost. Sometimes the paranormal takes place on military bases. (The Military And The Mysterious) *** The corpse of a murderer winds up doing advertising for a drug store. (The Murder of Maggie Walker) *** In 1922, an otherwise unremarkable farmhouse in Novia Scotia was the site of alleged poltergeist activity which made headlines all over Canada and the United States. A poltergeist that liked to set fires. (The Fire Spook of Caledonia Mills)==========HOUR TWO: Claiming to audibly hear from God either makes you crazy, or a prophet – and only time can tell which is true. If you claim things are going to happen because God says they will – and then they don't happen – that means you're cray cray, and a false prophet. That also makes your followers a bunch of dupes. Sadly, the 19th and 20th centuries were full of crazy false prophets with mindless sheep worshipping them. (Creating False Prophets) *** Headline: “Exciting Wake!” When you see the words “exciting” and “wake” in the same headline, you can make a guess that someone is not resting in peace! (Exciting Wake)==========SUDDEN DEATH OVERTIME: A smitten fan falls in love with a talented actress, and convinces himself she loves him in return. This sounds very much like a story out of today's entertainment magazines – but this tale of unrequited love took place in the 1880's. (The Lunatic James Dougherty) *** The terrifying Aswang is the most feared creature of Philippine folklore—and with good reason. I'll tell you why. (The Deadly Aswang) ** Reports have been coming in from people claiming to see full-sized African lions not in the Savannah or in the wilderness – but in North America. But is there any truth to the their claims?

David and Rachel discuss the devastating explosion that began a string of disasters during World War I era Nova Scotia. Script by Jillian P.

Tonight's first guest is Lee, calling from Newfoundland, who shares a close-range UFO encounter that took place during an Army Cadet summer training program in Nova Scotia. In the early hours of the morning, Lee and another cadet watched a silent oval-shaped object descend toward them, pass directly overhead at low altitude, and then shoot away at impossible speed after performing sudden direction changes. Then we move on to our second guest Brittany, calling from New York state in the US. Over the past year she has experienced repeated orb encounters ranging from distant lights in the sky to low-level activity directly over her yard. What began as curiosity slowly turned into something far more personal, as the experiences appeared responsive, patterned, and impossible for her to ignore.More information on this episode on the podcast website:https://ufochroniclespodcast.com/2026-2/If you enjoy this podcast, please support the show with a virtual coffee:https://ko-fi.com/ufochroniclespodcastFollow and Subscribe on X to get ad-free episodesX: https://x.com/UFOchronpodcast/Want to share your encounter on the show?Email: UFOChronicles@gmail.comOr Fill out Guest Form:https://forms.gle/uGQ8PTVRkcjy4nxS7Podcast Merchandise:https://www.teepublic.com/user/ufo-chronicles-podcastHelp Support UFO CHRONICLES by becoming a Patron:https://patreon.com/UFOChroniclespodcastAll Links for Podcast:https://linktr.ee/UFOChroniclesPodcastThank you for listening!Like share and subscribe it really helps me when people share the show on social media, it means we can reach more people and more witnesses and without your amazing support, it wouldn't be possible.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/ufo-chronicles-podcast--3395068/support.

In this episode, Dr. Jim Van Gelderen challenges young people to pray for revival, not merely as something God did in the past, but as something He still desires to do today. Reflecting on the history of revival in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, and the heart cry of Psalm 85:6, he reminds listeners that revival begins personally before it spreads corporately. True revival is not earned by human effort, but received through thirst, trust, humility, and dependence on the God who delights to revive His people. Topics Discussed The history of God's reviving work in places now spiritually forgotten The prayer of Psalm 85:6: “Wilt thou not revive us again?” Why young people should pray for revival in their school, youth group, church, and community The Welsh revival story and the reminder that “the revival is in here” The meaning of personal revival as Christ's abundant life in the believer Two essentials for personal revival: thirsting for God and trusting Him to work How revival produces rejoicing, truth, righteousness, and holiness from the inside out Why revival is not something we deserve, but a mercy God gives The importance of dealing honestly and biblically with sin A testimony of God moving in a Christian school camp and stirring a lifelong burden for revival The difference between simply “getting by” and living in the presence and power of God Key Takeaways Revival is not just a historical event to admire; it is a present need to pray for. Corporate revival begins with individual believers who are personally revived. A young person does not have to settle for dull, distracted, subnormal Christianity. Personal revival begins with a thirsty heart that wants God and a trusting heart that believes Him. Revival produces more than emotion; it produces truth, righteousness, holiness, and a passion for Christ. God's reviving work is an act of mercy, not something we earn or deserve. The presence of God changes everything. When God “steps in the room,” hearts are humbled, sins are confessed, burdens are born, and lives are changed. The right prayer is still, “Wilt thou not revive us again?” If you've been encouraged by this podcast, please take the time to give us a five-star rating and write a brief review. That would help tremendously in getting the word out and raising the visibility of the Thee Generation for others.

From Evidence to Action: Incorporating Disability Inclusion in Medical Training and Practice (ICAM 2026) Session Description The ICAM Series | Recorded Live at the International Congress on Academic Medicine (ICAM) What does it take to move disability inclusion from research and policy into everyday medical training and practice? Recorded live at the International Congress on Academic Medicine (ICAM) in Ottawa, Canada, this special episode of the Docs With Disabilities Podcast brings together an extraordinary panel of physician leaders, educators, and advocates working to transform disability inclusion across undergraduate medical education, residency training, and clinical practice. Together, the panel explores how institutions can move beyond awareness and compliance toward meaningful, sustainable change. Drawing from scholarship, systems leadership, and lived experience, they discuss the realities of accommodation implementation, the importance of centralized and trusted systems, faculty training, universal design, and the role of culture in shaping whether disability inclusion succeeds or stalls. This conversation asks difficult—but necessary—questions: How do we create systems that are consistent and humane? How do we support learners and physicians across transitions and career stages? And how do we build medical environments where disability is expected, planned for, and valued? Rich with practical insight and grounded in real-world experience, this live ICAM session highlights a field at an important turning point—one where we increasingly have the evidence, the tools, and the responsibility to act. Whether you are a learner, educator, physician, administrator, or institutional leader, this episode offers concrete ideas and inspiration for advancing disability inclusion within your own environment.

She is also an Assistant Professor in the Department of Family and Community Medicine at the University of Toronto and practices clinically in long-term care and rehabilitation settings.

Originally from Chester, Nova Scotia, she received her Doctor of Medicine from Dalhousie University in 1991 and completed her rotating internship at Royal Columbian Hospital, University of British Columbia. After practicing family medicine in Ottawa for 18 years while raising her children, she returned to the academic setting, driven by a longstanding commitment to compassionate, whole patient-centred care for those facing a serious illness.  In 2018, Dr. Munro was appointed Director of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion for the Department of Medicine where she led initiatives to foster a more inclusive and equitable academic and clinical environment. Her work included the development and implementation of the first formal accommodations policy for physicians with disabilities at a Canadian academic hospital. She remains a strong advocate for physicians with disabilities and for creating environments free from discrimination and inequity. Here work is grounded in compassion, advocacy, and representation; values she brings to her clinical care, teaching, mentorship and leadership. In recognition of her contributions, she received the 2022 Faculty Member Award of Excellence for Leadership in Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion from the University of Ottawa Faculty of Medicine.  Samantha Lavitt, MD Dr. Samantha Lavitt (she/her) is the first Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Curricular Lead in undergraduate medical education at the University of Ottawa, which sits on the traditional, unceded territory of the Algonquin people. In this role, she designs educational content including topics such as gender equity, sexual orientation and gender diversity, language rights, and disability, integrating these topics throughout the clinical curriculum in a format that connects students with community teachers with lived experience. Trained as a family physician and dedicated to resilience through sustainable practice development, Dr. Lavitt also offers coaching and peer support to family physicians on advocacy, disability, and well-being through the Ontario College of Family Physicians (OCFP). She established the first peer support group for physicians with chronic illness and/or disabilities at the OCFP in 2024 and continues to co-lead this group monthly.  While she finds working with individual physicians and small groups deeply rewarding, this intervention is not enough to dismantle the system of barriers that disabled physicians face in our medical culture, so Dr. Lavitt brings her professional and lived experience as a disabled physician to advocacy initiatives at her academic institution, provincial, and national levels with involvement in peer support projects, webinars, and conference appearances.

This show first aired on June 1st 1985, so this is the 41st Anniversary edition. Sprinkled a few of my favourite artists from these many moons, amongst some stirring new releases from Ireland, Africa, Scotland, B.C., Nova Scotia, Quebec, New Brunswick, Alberta, Spain, England, and the USA. It's always a marathon four hour show, but somehow it never feels like there is enough time to fit in all the tunes I want to play and hear!

The best coffee businesses are built on solid values, local community, and small consistent steps taken toward deeper connection through hospitality and excellence in the product. The story of Wheelhouse Coffee is one that demonstrates the power of intentional people-first work over time and what happens when you make growth a conversation with those your serve.  I am thrilled to get to talk with the founder of Wheelhouse Coffee in Nova Scotia, CA, Amos Gillespie! Wheelhouse Coffee began with an eight-year-old Amos sharing morning coffee with his dad. By 17, that simple joy had grown into a coffee dream. After an espresso machine, a barista job, and a life-changing Portland coffee show, Amos launched Wheelhouse in 2018. However, being a single owner with a small sample roaster and a full-time job became increasingly challenging. In 2020, after a beautiful summer wedding, he and his wife set out to grow Wheelhouse together. From basement beginnings to a thriving café, their journey is driven by their love for coffee and the people they serve. We discuss: How Amos Was Introduced to Coffee Beginning and Building Confidence in Roasting Navigating Stagnation The Shift Towards a Coffee Business Feedback and Growth in Coffee Roasting Understanding Customer Relationships The Move To Opening a Coffee Shop Balancing Vision with Financial Realities Building Relationships with Customers Advice for Aspiring Cafe Owners KEYS TO THE SHOP ALSO OFFERS 1:1 CONSULTING + COACHING!

With a background in education, Megan emphasizes the behavioral aspects of weight loss, drawing from her own 100-pound weight loss in 2018. She highlights common mental barriers like unstructured weekends and the "it shouldn't be hard" mindset.  For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/magan-gaul    Highlights from today's episode include:  Megan states weekends with no structure often derail weekday progress. Megan explains that long-term weight loss is won or lost in the mind, not the diet. Manon talks about Naturopathic doctors aren't automatically coaches—and patients often expect both.   ABOUT MEGAN GAUL: Megan is a weight loss coach from Staten Island. Her mission is to support women age 30 and up, 200 lbs and up, achieve their weight-loss goals without shrinking their lives. She came to this mission through her own 100-lb weight loss in 2018, where she discovered food freedom, healthier emotional boundaries, self-trust, and a richer life. She's now in her 5th year of business, and she and her clients focus on small habit-change, self-compassion, and authenticity. Core purpose/passion: I'm most passionate about helping women live more in-tune with what they want. So many of us live in fear for a huge percentage of our adult lives. We get stuck in people-pleasing, anxiety, and making choices only to get away from what we dislike. I want more women to feel awesome about making choices to go TOWARDS what they desire.

In the mid-1700s the Acadian people had been settled in the Nova Scotia region of Canada for over 100 years. When the area was transferred to the British, it was encouraged that the Acadian people take an oath of allegiance to the Crown. While many battles and political moments contributed, which is encouraged for everyone to research, the unrest in the area lead to the British forcibly removing the Acadian people from their homes and lands, causing many to be deported and made to settle elsewhere. It is do to this moment - or The Great Upheaval – that Louisiana now has the Acadiana region and the vast number of Cajun descendants. One person that can trace their roots to Nova Scotia is writer Marianne Sulser. Marianne has written a book titled “Like Snow Before Sun,” which takes a fictional approach to this time period, and a look into some real-life moments of the people that lived it.

Send us Fan MailA stranger walks up holding an old canoe book and says, “You signed this to my dad 35 years ago.” Minutes later, Kevin Callan signs it again for the next generation and the whole Hamilton Adventure Expo suddenly feels like a small world. That's where our livestream chat begins, and it sets the tone for a conversation about how canoe camping stories stick, how outdoor skills get passed along, and why community is the real reason these shows matter.We dig into Kevin's idea of “ultimate canoe routes” and why he opens his talk by saying the best trip is the next one. Then we get specific: Algonquin's Brent Run, a loop around Killarney, Lake Superior's Bustard Islands, Kejimkujik in Nova Scotia, and even Scotland's River Spey. If you're looking for canoe route inspiration, paddling trip planning ideas, or just a reminder that repeat trips can still feel brand new, this one delivers.We also go behind the scenes on outdoor writing and Canadian publishing. Kevin shares what it's like to hit 20 books, how rewarding it is when kids show up already excited about what they learned, and how printing and shipping across the Canada US border can turn sales into losses overnight. We talk honest numbers on royalties, why self-publishing can make sense, and the simple advice that matters most: write the book first.If you enjoy real talk about paddling, camping, and making a life around the outdoors, subscribe, share this with a friend who loves canoe trips, and leave a review so more Canadian campers can find the show.https://kevincallan.com/https://www.youtube.com/c/KCHappyCamperhttps://www.facebook.com/kevin.callan.311/https://www.instagram.com/kchappycamper/Support the showCONNECT WITH US AT SUPER GOOD CAMPING:Support the podcast & buy super cool SWAG: https://store.skgroupinc.com/super_good_camping/shop/homeEMAIL: hi@supergoodcamping.comWEBSITE: www.supergoodcamping.comYOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqFDJbFJyJ5Y-NHhFseENsQINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/super_good_camping/TWITTER: https://twitter.com/SuperGoodCampinFACEBOOK GROUP: https://www.facebook.com/groups/SuperGoodCamping/TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@supergoodcampingSupport the show

Rhys Waters spent over a decade making award‑winning TV and radio for the BBC in Wales before moving to Halifax, Nova Scotia, in search of a better work–life balance. In this episode, he traces his path from a neurodivergent kid who struggled in traditional classrooms to a documentary filmmaker, broadcaster and eventually co‑founder of Podstarter, a podcast production company helping brands make shows with highly specific goals. Rhys explains how one client's podcast needed only 12 listeners—and still generated over $5 million in revenue—illustrating why success isn't always about download numbers. He talks about learning podcasting through BBC radio, the explosive growth of on‑demand audio, and the evolving role of video and short‑form clips in discovery. Rhys also dives into how his dyslexic, ADHD brain shapes his creative process and why he launched The Echo Podcast Summit, an East Coast podcast conference focused on themes like trust and community in audio.Please sign up for the SOUNDING OFF Newsletter.

Walter Sterling and Dave Scott dismantle the hollow threats of woke celebrities who vow to move to Canada, breaking down the harsh realities of Canadian taxes, doctor shortages, and social media news bans. The broadcast takes an extraterrestrial turn as the hosts uncover the US Space Force's classified "Space Tiger Team"—a specialized clean-up crew allegedly handling UFO crashes and extraterrestrial alerts. They also relentlessly roast Canada's baffling decision to spend millions renting a gravel driveway with a cement slab in Nova Scotia to serve as a national rocket launchpad. Back on Earth, Walter honors a hospitalized Rudy Giuliani as the man who saved New York City from the dreaded "squeegee men", navigates a caller's intense 9/11 scrap metal and "dustification" conspiracy theories, and explains the superior creative brainpower of flat-footed, left-handed night owls.

JD sits down with Virgil from NorthBound Expeditions and NBX Trail Gear for a laid-back conversation about Jeeps, handmade gear, and the kind of trips that stick with you long after you get home. Virgil shares how he went from growing up in Luxembourg to building a life in Nova Scotia, serving in the Canadian Army, creating overland content, and turning his own need for better storage into NBX Trail Gear. The conversation gets into his JK “Fury,” his new 2025 Gladiator build, G.A.R.B. bags, custom trail gear, Cordura fabric, YouTube storytelling, and why good overlanding gear usually comes from people who actually spend time on the trail. JD and Virgil also talk about Eastern Canada travel, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick woods restrictions, and how quickly access issues can hit a community when nobody is organized to push back. This one is a good hang for anyone who loves Jeep builds, overlanding, handmade trail gear, and the stories behind small companies in the off-road world.

Stuart Tomc, a globally recognized leader in Omega 3 science, discussed his journey in the nutrition industry, emphasizing the shift from guess-based supplementation to test-based precision nutrition. He highlighted the importance of maintaining a balance between Omega 6 and Omega 3, ideally a 1:1 ratio, for optimal health. Tomc introduced Zinzino's Omega 3 blood spot test, which has tested 1.7 million people globally, revealing significant imbalances. He explained Zinzino's Balance Oil, which includes polyphenols for stability and efficacy, For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/stuart-tomc  Highlights from today's episode include:  Stuart says Test, don't guess: Omega‑6:3 balance in red blood cells is the key inflammatory "vital sign" – you can take fish oil and still be completely out of the safe zone. Stuart explains fish oil ≠ fish: Most refined fish oils are "naked," stripped of protective polyphenols, so they don't behave like real food; Balance Oil restores that missing polyphenol protection. Manon states health sovereignty: People should be the CEOs of their own health—using at‑home tests to know their status and keeping (or firing) practitioners based on results. ABOUT STUART TOMC: Stuart Tomc is a globally recognized leader in omega-3 science with 30+ years in the nutrition industry and over $1 billion in supplement sales influenced worldwide. He has appeared in 6,000+ media interviews and served as Global Educator for Nordic Naturals, training teams at Whole Foods Market, Sprouts Farmers Market, The Vitamin Shoppe, and GNC, as well as independent retailers and healthcare professionals around the world. Today, Stuart is helping lead the shift from guess-based supplementation to test-based precision nutrition. Start testing. Stop guessing. We measure the AA/EPA ratio, Omega-3 Index, Gut Health Index, Vitamin D, and HbA1c — with more AI-driven tests on the way. Stuart teaches that kitchen table medicine — testing at home with high-quality products delivered to your door — is the future of the supplement industry, and he mentors partners building scalable, subscription-based businesses rooted in real data, real results, and real retention Core purpose/passion: Moving the dial on public health globally Website |     ABOUT MANON BOLLIGER, RBHT, FCAH: As a retired Naturopath 1992-2021, I saw an average of 150 patients per week and have helped people ranging from rural farmers in Nova Scotia to stressed out CEOs in Toronto to tri-athletes here in Vancouver.

In this episode of The Healers Cafe, Manon speaks with Benny Voncken, a stoic coach and co-founder of VIA Stoica, discusses his journey and philosophy of life based on stoicism. Benny emphasizes the importance of finding one's philosophy of life, the dichotomy of control, and the virtues of wisdom, justice, temperance, and courage.  For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/benny-voncken    Highlights from today's episode include:  Stoicism helped him stop seeing himself as a victim during divorce, injury, and burnout, and realize he has agency to change his life. The true goal of Stoicism is eudaimonia (a good, balanced inner state) through virtue—wisdom, justice, temperance, and courage—not emotional suppression. She highlights a loss of courage and social responsibility, noting how people often look away instead of acting, reflecting a weakened moral compass in society. ABOUT BENNY VONCKEN: My name is Benny Voncken. I'm the co-founder of Via Stoica and the Via Stoica Podcast. We offer Stoic life coaching, corporate training, motivational speaking, and workshops. Our mission is to help people live better lives through the creation and application of a philosophy of Life, mainly based on Stoicism. I'm from the Netherlands and have lived abroad for over 15 years. After teaching for almost 12 years, I focused on Stoicism and coaching to improve my life and to help as many people discover who they are and find their path and purpose in life. Core purpose/passion: My mission is not to turn others into Stoics, but to inspire them to explore and develop their own philosophy of life as a guiding compass to start improving and becoming better people.  Website |  Facebook | Instagram | LinkedIn | Twitter | YouTube    ABOUT MANON BOLLIGER, RBHT, FCAH: As a retired Naturopath 1992-2021, I saw an average of 150 patients per week and have helped people ranging from rural farmers in Nova Scotia to stressed out CEOs in Toronto to tri-athletes here in Vancouver.
