Kinley Coast
This is an Atlantic Canadian focused podcast that will feature topical and culturally interesting discussions and interviews concerning the region. This region of Canada includes the Maritime provinces (Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island [aka PEI]) and Newfoundland & Labrador. The style of the podcast could be described as a "kitchen gab". Partly because of the informal nature of the content and partly because many of the conversations may actually literally be happening within a kitchen. It won't quite be like a kitchen party, but it certainly won't be like content coming from a Toronto based studio.
Some topics will include:
• Regional history
• Science, technology, and the environment of Atlantic Canada
• Regional, provincial, & federal politics
• Boating & boat building/refitting, sea fairing, living on the coast and water.
• Maritime life, religion, & philosophy of the region
• Tourism, local events & current affairs
Outside listeners will find the program interesting if you're broadening your research on a topic, planning a trip to the area, interested in what makes this part of Canada tick (politically or otherwise) or perhaps you're simply an ex-pat who wants to carry a little piece of home.
There's a lot to cover, so let's start gabbing.

Uncomplicating the outdoors with Mr. Jeremy Hawes
These days, I personally feel like there is a disconnect for myself and others in what we do on the day-to-day and the outdoors. I am willing to wager that I am not the only one who feels this way. I mean, I don’t mean that I am still going outside to build a tree fort with my brother, but rather just general activity outdoors. So much of our lives are being carried out indoors, at a desk and at a computer; followed by coming home to your favorite chair and whatever favorite screen we are choosing that night.
Today, as I try to become a better role model for my kids, we are going to talk about the outside. There are so many things to see and do up and down this rugged coast. And I might also emphasize that there’s a lot of land here in Atlantic Canada. We aren’t just all seashore. There are beautiful interior places to visit.
Getting outside does not have to be complicated. In fact, perhaps the best strategy is to take some of the pieces of comfort that we use everyday (like pizza and Netflix) and just make it happen. The goal should be to keep things simple and maybe by doing so, you'll be reintroduced to a rewarding experience.
To discuss the great outdoors today I’ve brought a little help. With me today is the man, the legend, Mr. Jeremy Hawes. Jeremy is the protagonist and propagator of the Youtube channel Hawes Outdoors that he populates with his outdoors excursions.
