Side Quest
Side Quest is a podcast about learning together.
Gathered in a circle around the fire, an Elder and a group of youth come together to share stories, laughter, food, and honest conversation. Through listening, reflection, and plenty of banter, the group explores culture, history, and truth and reconciliation — not as a lesson, but as a lived experience.
Each episode is shaped by the land, the voices in the circle, and the understanding that learning doesn’t always follow a straight path. Sometimes it’s serious, sometimes it’s funny, and sometimes it’s just about being together.
Episode one is about meeting each other, setting the tone, and creating a space where listening comes first.
This is Side Quest — a journey of curiosity, connection, and learning side by side.
This podcast is funded by VIDEA and the Government of Canada.

We gathered with Joe and the kids at KP Park had a fire and ate Sushi and Pizza. Joe gave us a great opening Circle and then we ate laughed and the kids played. Later we chatted about animals that resonate with us. It was a fun day.
