Avsnitt

  • Sadly, my grandmother passed away this week at the age of 99. You might remember her from episode #49 of WTS: Can't Get There From Hair (Acceptance).

    She was a force and I hope you take a few minutes to listen to what she has to say.

    Article written in 2019:

  • It is December and any show worth its weight in gold (or frankincense… or myrrh) has a Christmas episode - and WTS is definitely with its weight in tree resin.

    This episode comes to you in the form of two audio gifts. We even wrapped them and put them under the tree for you. We hope you enjoy them and, perhaps, even take away an idea or two that helps your holiday season be merry and bright.


    Thank you to Joseph Quinn for joining us in this episod and also for crafting and recording this year’s jazzy holiday version of our theme.

    p.s. This is Where There’s Smoke’s 3rd Christmas episode. If you love Christmas and all things Christmas, be sure to check out the other two - 38: A Where There’s Smoke Christmas and 56: Soaking in the Holidays (Feeling) . The first is an all-time fun and wacky WTS classic, and the second is a beautiful and reflective listen.

  • What is Halloween without the trick or treating?

    That is the question that started the journey of this episode. A lot of our traditions over the next few months are going to look different this year. Not just Halloween. It’s unlikely that celebrations of US Thanksgiving, Diwali, Hanukkah, or Christmas will have the same gatherings of people they have in the past. And that sucks. And many people feel stuck.

    And this feeling of being stuck is not exclusive to Halloween where 2020 is concerned.

    So how do we adapt? And is perhaps perhaps a tool that can help all of us adapt? For Halloween … and beyond.

  • The world is grappling with a lot of tough issues. Issues that are nuanced and layered. Issues that don’t necessarily have a right or wrong answer. Issues that demand dialogue for progress. And yet we seem to mostly be doing something else.

    This week we are talking about talking. Debate vs Dialogue. Nick revisits an actual debate, and both Nick and Brett attempt to create some dialogue.

    In the end they hope to answer the question, Is dialogue dead?

  • This week our episode is inspired by the life of Chadwick Boseman.

    We challenge ourselves to look at how we are showing up in the world. With all of our fears and doubts and distractions, and over corrections and under corrections, and at times just plain laziness or indifference - how many of us manage to consistently show up in our life? For ourselves and for others? To bring all of ourselves to the party?

    We hear a story from Personal Story expert, Bo Eason. And you may just leave this episode with a different view on generosity, and a renewed commitment to bring it.

  • “Change is the only constant in life.” Heraclitus said that back in 500 BCE. It was true then, and 2500 years later, it is still true.

    That said, there are times in life when it feels like we are in a more intense period of change. As we release this episode, it is June of the year Two Thousand and Twenty AD. We’ve got a pandemic that is still very much happening, economic uncertainty, and the world is starting to look closely at systemic racism. Oh yeah, and a globally significant presidential election is happening in the USA.

    This episode we are exploring ‘Change’. What is change? How do we accept it? How do we fight it? And how can we as individuals make positive change for ourselves or the world.

  • This week, as the world continues to reckon with race and equality after the murder of George Floyd, we try to understand what an ally IS... and what it isn't.Brett and Nick both hold up a mirror to look at their own actions (or lack of them). And Nick has a conversation with Holliday Philips, who recently published the article ‘Performative Allyship Is Deadly (Here’s What to Do Instead)’.

  • Life moves pretty fast and, if you're not careful, it's easy to be swept away by it. (How's that for a mixed metaphor?) Anyway, today's episode asks several important questions: What would it mean to slow down? What does it mean to be mindful? Is it even possible anymore? What does any of this look like?

    To help us answer these questions, Brett talks with Mark Champagne about the power of intentional practice and journaling. Then, Nick shares a new passion of his and hopes that it inspires others to find their own.

  • This episode is a riddle, wrapped in an NBA championship, wrapped in a chance encounter, wrapped in privilege, wrapped in mashed potatoes, washed over by the ocean, and inside of a critical message for our world about humility.

    Our journey starts with a celebration and a question, and ends with a celebration and a question. In between we hear from two TedX speakers, an American playwright, a psychologist, and have in depth conversation with Ed Hess, author of Humility is the New Smart: Rethinking Human Excellence in the Smart Machine Age.

  • It's our first new Where There's Smoke episode in two years!

    Pliny the Elder said, “The only certainty is that nothing is certain.”

    In a world where nothing is certain and so much is out of our control, what options do we really have? Should we fight? Do we give up? Or is there something else?

    In this episode we move from a tragic accident, through quicksand, and into a very personal story from Brett about his Mom - all while exploring the power of surrender.

  • This 48 Hour Challenge is going to be classic. Literally.

    But what is classic? How do we define it? Is there a Classic version of you? And if so, what can the Classic You teach the Current You?

    Once again, we gathered show topic suggestions from our audience, threw them into a word randomizer, and made a show in 48 hours. And we think the results are, well … Delicious and Refreshing. Good to the Last Drop. Like Ice Cold Sunshine. (See what we're doing here?)

    Plus, some new WTSdigs. One inspired by adulthood, and the other by childhood.

  • Integrity is defined as “a state of being whole and undivided”. It is a simple concept, and yet at times, living it can be some of the hardest work we will ever do.

    This week we hear from Matthew Schueller about an important journey in his life - it’s his journey to integrity. We know that it’s a story with themes that can resonate with everyone and we can’t wait for you to hear Matthew’s words and apply their lessons to your life.

    Plus Nick & Brett come together for a new WTS segment, or maybe just to banter about late night tv and musicals. We’ll let you decide.

  • Expression is the process of taking something from a spark of an idea through to existence. And, while there can be moments in that process that are truly amazing, it can also run us through the ringer - several times over.

    So, what is required of us to press our expression out into this world? Is want enough or does it require something more?


    This week we are paying it forward through an exploring on expression and the story of two artists.

  • We’ve all had a time or two (... or three…) where we’ve shared a secret that wasn’t ours and it comes back to his us square in the face. Sometimes, before you even think about it, you’ve let something slip out of your mouth and immediately cringe - just wishing you could jump into a 15-second time machine so you can pull those words back into your mouth where they belong.

    We’ve all been on the other side of it, too - where our trust in someone else has been eroded because of their inability to keep our secrets. You’d think we would learn this lesson early on and just mind our own business. Why is it so easy and so tempting to share secrets?

    This week on Where There’s Smoke, we hear from a couple new voices! Kristen and Theresa are going to share a few of their own stories, offer a little research, and lean on some of Brene Brown’s teachings to help all of us dig around into our secrets and stories.

  • The 48 Hour Challenge is back! We gathered show topic suggestions from our audience, threw them into a word randomizer, and ended up with “self-acceptance”. From there, our challenge was to research, write, and record a brand new episode in 48 hours straight (including sleep). Did we do it? Well, give it a listen and find out.

    Along the way we talk to clinical psychologist Dr. Lisa Firestone and author & speaker Lisa Jakub. Both of whom help us to understand why self-acceptance can be challenging, what the rewards of doing the work are, and most importantly what are some tangible things you can put in practice today to get back to a life of more self-acceptance and less critical self-consciousness.

    Plus, a new WTSdigs, where Nick also provides a musical solution.

  • Jim Cuddy has been making music with Greg Keilor for 40 years. For the last 34 of those years, they have made up the songwriting duo for one of Canada’s most beloved and best-selling bands, Blue Rodeo.

    Brett sits down with Jim to talk about that partnership along with the challenges and benefits of a long standing collaboration. We explore what collaboration is and how it has been crucial to human evolution. And through the lens of Jim Cuddy’s latest album, Constellation, we see how collaboration not only has the ability to bring us together, but also to support us in times when we are torn apart.

    Plus, Brett looks to find confirmation of an old event and Nick joins in to provide an update on their fasts from social media and cable news, respectively.

  • In the 1976 movie Network, upon being prompted by news anchor Howard Beale, people in cities all over the USA get up, open their windows, and yell, “I’m mad as hell as hell and I’m not going to take it anymore!”. It is now 2018 and people still seem mad as hell - only now, instead of yelling out our windows, we have the internet to amplify our rage.

    Recently, there has been a lot of conversation about outrage on the internet and the impact of the internet on everything from our relationships to our democracy to our psyches. This week we join that conversation. We take a step back and explore the impact of the internet and social media on both our society and each of us individually?

    In the end, Brett and Nick ask themselves what they want to do differently moving forward and they provide the opportunity for listeners to ask themselves that question as well.

  • What would it take for this to be your best year ever?

    That said, what is a year? Is it the days between January 1st and December 31st? Or is it any 12 month span of time? And does it even matter?

    Are cassette tapes coming back? Could Nick rock Steve Harvey’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve outfit? And why is it essential to recognize the difference between knowing and doing?

    We will answer these questions - or we’ll at least ask them - as we tackle the topic of goals, and look to help you make this “your best year ever”. (Whatever that means to you.)

    Joining us on this journey is author and speaker Michael Hyatt, whose new book is appropriately called Your Best Year Ever: A 5-Step Plan for Achieving Your Most Important Goals

    So buckle in, grab a noisemaker, and let’s set some goals!
