Week 44: Hockey Barns to The Golden Jet
Send us Fan Mail We are officially on Week 44 of our 52-week countdown to leaving Winnipeg! With the fall air rolling into Manitoba, the seasonal flu bugs have officially entered the house. Candace dives into why our childhood sickness habits—from Campbell's chicken noodle soup and The Price Is Right with Bob Barker to a mom handing you a pill—differ so much from the holistic home playbook today. Between raw onions on the soles of feet, mullein, bone broths, fasting to let the body's internal army fight off invaders, and reflexology lung meridians, we break down why returning to traditional wellness habits keeps the family grounded. Plus, Dave revisits the time a burger led to 24 hours of total hallucination under the radio station control desk. In the back half, we look at the true heartbeat of Dave’s 20+ years living in Winnipeg: hockey . From coaching Junior hockey with the St. Boniface Seals and Transcona Railers to grabbing the PA mic for the Manitoba Moose at the new arena, Dave traces how the game opened incredible doors. We relive our wild trip flying private alongside "The Golden Jet" Bobby Hull to Nashville, getting escorted straight off the tarmac, the upcoming Teemu Selänne charity lunch at Rae & Jerry’s for CancerCare Manitoba, and the unmatched joy of calling play-by-play for tiny Timbits players during intermission.
