Greg Marchildon speaks with Dimitry Anastakis about his book Re-Creation, Fragmentation and Resilience: A Brief History of Canada since 1945 This book is an engaging survey of post-Second World War Canada, exploring ten themes key to the Canadian experience since 1945. An accessible narrative brings together recent scholarship to show how Canadians first re-created the nation following the Second World War, then experienced the fragmentation of the Canada that had emerged, and ultimately remained committed to Canada as a nation-state and community. DIMIRTY ANASTAKIS is Professor and L.R. Wilson/R.J. Currie Chair in Canadian Business History at the University of Toronto in the Department of History and the Rotman School of Management, where he teaches about business, the state and politics, globalization, and automobility. He has published twelve books and edited collections, including five books on aspects of the Canadian auto industry in North America including Dream Car: Malcolm Bricklin's Fantastic SV1 and the End of Industrial Modernity.

I thought I'd re-publish this one for any of the heads who missed it first time round.He doesn't really need an introduction round here — one half of the production team behind Jurassic 5, and honestly one of the best DJs I've ever seen live. I got Nu-Mark on to talk about his new book Amunu, which is part Persian cookbook, part memoir, part travel guide, and really a celebration of togetherness — family, food and music all woven together. What I love is how much ground we covered getting there.He told me about the mum who raised him with total freedom (and who, 24 years ago, told him to start making Middle Eastern beats — advice he's only just taken), about growing up half-Iranian in the States during the hostage crisis, and about buying 20,000 records for $500 as a teenager, a haul that ended up powering 85–90% of those early J5 productions. We got deep into the group: how it became Jurassic 5 when there were six of them, why he refused the single deal that everyone else signed, the fact that the UK recognised them before the US would, and the whole first EP being made on an eight-track. He's wonderfully honest about confidence too — something he says he's still working on — and about losing his father, and how it was putting his dad's old records on that finally let him cry. We finish on Lesson 6, two record collections meant to meet, and the kebabs-on-site book launch in LA. A proper one, this.In this episode:His mum, Nowruz, and the Middle Eastern beats advice he ignored for 24 yearsGrowing up half-Iranian during the Iran hostage crisisThe alphabetised 35,000-record collection (and the $500 haul of 20,000 records that built J5)Making peace with a tough upbringing, and music as therapyLosing his father, and the records that brought it outDrumming, Brazilian rhythm, and house parties that ended on slow jamsBum Rush Productions, $2 on the door and the 40 ounce posseWhy it's Jurassic 5 when there were six of themTurning down the Blunt single deal — and signing Kanye at Correct RecordsThe chemistry with Cut Chemist, and the art-first philosophyBreaking in the UK before the US, and touring like a rock bandRetaining the publishing, the long life of "What's Golden", and a surprise Pandora hitThe whole first EP made on an eight-trackThe Interscope era alongside Dre, Eminem and 50 Cent, and the Scott Storch sessionsGoing solo with the toy set, and building his own ecosystemHow Amunu came together — and the LA launch

Every now and then, I like to hop into the wayback machine and share a fresh listen to conversations that influenced our current times. The one you are going to register to today was recorded live in 2014 from DIEM, Design Intersects Everything Made symposium presented by the West Hollywood Design District featuring Frances Anderton, then with KCRW ad Jeff Denby, co-founder and then with Pact. A clothing brand you will be hearing more about.  The following conversation was focused on values based capitalism, an economic model with which places value on profit generation that also generates positive social impact. Designer Resources Pacific Sales Kitchen and Home. Where excellence meets expertise. TimberTech – Real wood beauty without the upkeep Shelter Republic – Request your membership invitation As you listen to this chat between Frances and Jeff, you might notice the “feel-good” vibes and high ideals that come from a focus on values based consumerism patterns. Buy well-made products that come from sustainably based materials and made by people who are valued to those producing the products and then by those who buy the product. At the time of this recording, this idea was catching on and even now, companies that have a value-system connected directly to products speak openly about the social capital being generated. I would argue we hear far less now because sustainability has been linked politically to DEI, and there is a group of people who see that has more of a social ill, than a societal benefit. I'm not here to change any minds, only share different perspectives. And this is one worth sharing with the hope that it will make a return, not just in fashion or consumer packaged goods, but in the home decor and architectural materials sectors. Consumer Awareness Evolution How Whole Foods and the food industry educated consumers about product origins. Extension of that curiosity to body care and apparel: understanding what goes on the skin and into daily wear. The role of design in making sustainable products attractive and desirable. Philanthropy and Social Impact Early collaborations with nonprofits through limited-edition collections and direct aid. Shift toward improving the lives of workers within the supply chain. Emphasis on economic, environmental, and social impact as part of the business model. Challenges of Domestic Manufacturing Difficulties of reviving large-scale apparel production domestically, including labor costs, fractured supply chains, and compliance issues. Comparison with global supply chains and the decision to work where systems already exist. Insights from attempts at localized production and the challenges of sustainable sourcing. Product Expansion and Market Strategy Focus on apparel basics for the emerging generation of socially conscious consumers. Building a generational brand by appealing to evolving values. Commitment to price accessibility while maintaining sustainability and ethical production. Supply Chain Ethics and Certification Working exclusively with certified factories and farms to ensure fair labor practices. Ensuring worker protections and representation, including female supervisors. Direct engagement with farmers and supply chain partners to secure market access and stability. Sustainability and Waste Management Recycling factory scraps and leftover materials into new products. Finding secondary uses for garment remnants, including mattress filling. Factories incentivized to reduce waste as part of both economic and environmental sustainability. Consumer Education and Transparency Educating customers about the human and environmental story behind clothing. Leveraging social media, coalition branding, and events to communicate supply chain practices. Positioning Pact as a non-toxic apparel brand with safe-for-skin products. Research and Industry Collaboration Participation in textile and sustainability coalitions with like-minded brands. Supporting the growth of organic cotton farming and sustainable supply chains. Promoting transparency in manufacturing practices and educating the public on chemical exposure in conventional apparel. Ethical apparel requires intentional design, transparent supply chains, and collaboration across the industry. Consumers increasingly demand products that are safe, well-designed, and socially responsible. Philanthropy is most effective when integrated into the core business, benefiting both workers and communities. Scaling sustainability in mass-market apparel is challenging but possible with careful planning, partnerships, and public education. Conscious Basics: How Textiles Can Be Ethical, Sustainable, and Stylish In an era when consumers increasingly demand transparency and ethical responsibility, Pact is reshaping the apparel industry by marrying sustainability, social impact, and thoughtful design. Co-founder Jeff Denby spoke with Frances Anderton in 2014 about the philosophy behind the brand, tracing a journey from organic cotton farms in India to certified factories in Turkey, all with the goal of delivering high-quality, accessible clothing that respects both people and the planet. Denby notes that consumer awareness has evolved in stages. Shoppers first became curious about food origins, learning that groceries come from farms, not just shelves. This consciousness extended to body care products, as people began asking what they were putting on their skin. Apparel is the next frontier. “People want to know what they're wearing every day,” Denby explains. “They want products that are beautifully designed, sustainable, and safe, without having to reinvent what underwear or socks should look like.” Early in Pact's history, the company experimented with philanthropic partnerships, designing collections that supported nonprofit causes. These initiatives provided aid to communities abroad, from distributing lanterns in Haiti to rebuilding community centers in Japan. However, Denby realized the brand could make a deeper impact by focusing inward—supporting the lives of the workers who create the products. By investing in stable, ethical supply chains, Pact achieves a triple bottom line: economic, social, and environmental benefits. Reviving large-scale apparel manufacturing in the United States proved impractical for Pact. Labor costs, fractured supply chains, and limited domestic processing infrastructure made it impossible to produce affordable basics at scale. Instead, the brand partnered with existing factories abroad, ensuring they meet strict certifications such as the Global Organic Textile Standard. Denby emphasizes that these certifications guarantee fair labor practices, gender equity, and safe working conditions—factors often overlooked in conventional apparel production. Beyond ethical sourcing, Pact prioritizes product safety and environmental responsibility. Cotton cultivation and traditional textile processing can involve significant pesticide use and harmful chemicals. Pact works with organic cotton farmers and certified dye houses, eliminating heavy metals and carcinogens from their products. Waste management is also integral; leftover yarn and fabrics are recycled into new garments or repurposed for other industries, demonstrating that sustainability extends from field to factory to finished product. Denby envisions Pact as the “basics brand for the change generation,” appealing to consumers who value ethics, transparency, and design. The brand is part of a coalition with other sustainable apparel companies, collaborating to secure fair market access for farmers, grow organic cotton production, and educate the public on the human stories behind clothing. Social media and events provide direct channels to communicate these values, allowing consumers to engage with the brand and understand the people and processes behind the garments they wear. For Pact, the mission goes beyond selling clothing. It is about proving that everyday apparel can be ethical, well-designed, and accessible, while creating meaningful social impact. By integrating philanthropy, sustainability, and consumer education into the business model, Pact is showing that the basics—underwear, socks, and t-shirts—can carry a powerful message: that fashion can be responsible, thoughtful, and inclusive.

Reissue 67 - Masters of the Universe (1987)Since a new Masters of the Universe movie is arriving in 2026, we're unlocking the vault and re-releasing Episode 67 of Reel Comic Heroes! Join us as we travel back to Eternia—and suburban Earth—to revisit the 1987 cult classic Masters of the Universe, starring Dolph Lundgren as He-Man and Frank Langella as the iconic Skeletor. Based on the wildly popular Mattel toy line and animated series, this ambitious live-action adaptation brought swords, sorcery, laser blasters, and Castle Grayskull to the big screen in a way only the 1980s could.In this episode, we discuss the film's journey from toy shelves to theaters, its memorable cast—including a young Courteney Cox—and why this once-maligned box-office disappointment has grown into a beloved cult favorite over the decades. We also examine the movie's departures from the source material, its production challenges, and the performance that many fans still consider the film's greatest strength: Langella's unforgettable Skeletor.Whether you're a lifelong Master of the Universe or preparing for the franchise's big-screen return, grab your Power Sword and join us for a nostalgic look back at one of the most fascinating comic and toy adaptations of the 1980s. By the power of Grayskull, it's time for Reel Comic Heroes!Guest PlugsSean Malloy - I Must Break Discuss the episode over on the Facebook group: The Reel Comic Heroes League of CitizensFollow @ReelComicHeroes on Letterboxd & InstagramJoin us for our next movie review - Attack of the Clones

As we rapidly approach the start of summer in the Northern Hemisphere, many school schedules are preparing to slow down or take a break in the warmer months, as some work schedules do too. With this in mind, please enjoy this special reissue of our 35th episode on work-life balance in cultures around the globe, “‘Work to live’ cultures, and ‘live to work’ cultures”, from October 2022. We here at ‘Oops, Your Culture’s Showing!’ will also be taking a break from releasing episodes over the coming months, as we soak up some sun (hopefully on a beach with a cold drink in one or both hands), travel, and time with family and friends. We’ll see you out there on the beach, dear listeners – and while getting those rays, it’s a perfect time to visit/revisit our entire back catalogue of episodes! Listening to this while eating lunch in the workplace? Fais attention (be careful!) because if you're in France, that's illegal. In this episode, Dean and Tom get to work contrasting how countries from France to Japan to the US value, and even legislate, work-life balance – and, bien sûr (of course!), how it's all grounded in culture. Plus, a Grammar Time segment somehow sneaks up on all of us…est-ce possible? (Here are the referenced NPR articles on the French lunch law and the Portuguese ‘right to disconnect' law, from June 2022.) ***Dean's book, “Business Beyond Borders: Stories, Tales, and Lessons Learned from Working in 100 Cultures Around the World”, IS OUT NOW – order it today! And: Subscribe to Dean's Substack to find all of Dean's “Culture's Consequences” articles, CultureQuizzes, and much more!*** Have a cultural question or episode idea?

In this week's episode of Faith for Normal People, Jared talks with Roberto de la Noval and Jordan Wood about the church fathers, the development of doctrine, and how early Christians approached the Bible. They explore how figures like Augustine and Origen understood Scripture as something meant to transform people rather than simply provide literal answers, and why “problem passages” were often seen as invitations to think more deeply. Together, they invite listeners to see Christian tradition not as static or simplistic, but as a long, creative conversation about how to make sense of God, Scripture, and human experience.  Show Notes → thebiblefornormalpeople.com/episodes/episode-72-roberto-de-la-noval-and-jordan-wood-how-the-early-church-read-the-bible Watch this episode on YouTube → https://youtu.be/JukXifVwhQo ********** This episode is brought to you by Brooklyn Bedding, which knows sleep isn't one-size-fits-all.

(*This is a reissue of a Dangerous History Episode first published in Aug. 2015) In this episode, CJ discusses two different paradigms of what war is supposed to be and how it is supposed to be fought.  One is the Western (or European) Way, which originated in Greece and from there filtered through the Romans to become the dominant paradigm among Westerners to this day. The other is the Eastern (or Asian) Way, which originated in China and from there filtered to other parts of the Asian world and beyond, and which forms the intellectual basis of much of modern unconventional tactics and strategy. Join CJ as he discusses: The origins of the Western Way and how it has evolved over the centuries The origins of the Eastern Way and how it has evolved over the centuries Why this matters to understanding the modern world in general, and the history of modern unconventional warfare in particular Like this episode?

697. Most people think "fitness" is just about how you look at the beach or your 5K time. But after two decades of coaching, host Kevin Don has realized that what people actually want isn't bigger biceps—it's to be happy. This week, we look back at an episode from step away from November 2024. We look at the squat rack and into the world of philosophy to answer a bold question: Which mode of exercise will actually increase your happiness the most?Drawing from Aristotle's "Nicomachean Ethics," Kevin explores the concept of eudaemonia (human flourishing) and why true "fitness" requires exercising your virtues rather than just your muscles. If you've ever felt like a new gym PR or a lower number on the scale didn't provide the fulfillment you expected, this episode explains why.In this episode, we discuss:The Puzzle of Identity: A quick (and nerdy) dive into Bertrand Russell's theory of definite descriptions.Why Fitness Isn't Compartmentalized: Moving toward a "whole" definition of health that permeates every facet of your life.The Greatest Self-Help Book of All Time: An introduction to Aristotle's "Nicomachean Ethics" and its relevance to modern wellness.The Doctrine of the Mean: How finding the balance between deficiency and excess (like courage vs. recklessness) creates a harmonious life.Practical Wisdom (Phronesis): Why knowing what is "good" in theory isn't enough—you have to practice it in real-life situations.The Three Types of Friendship: Why your social circle is a crucial component of your physical and mental flourishing.Get-Fit Guy is a Quick and Dirty podcast.

675. Is BMI actually a "myth," or are you just using your muscle mass as an excuse to skip cardio? This week, in an episode that ran first in April 2024, host Kevin Don tackles the controversial debate surrounding the Body Mass Index (BMI). While athletes and powerlifters often dismiss BMI as irrelevant to the muscular, Kevin explains why it remains a vital screening tool—provided you have the "missing piece" of the puzzle: waist circumference.
