A Mass Shooting During A Pandemic

This episode is a little different. Over the weekend, a 22 people
lost their lives in a mass murder spree that covered 100
kilometers in Nova Scotia. Monday morning, Q104 in Halifax and a
number of Stingray radio stations came together to pivot
programming towards the hearts of their listeners. To understand
what it takes to make those changes, you need to understand the
people affected. Nova Scotia has had more than its fair share of
disasters in the last century, and radio has been there to
weather every storm and see its listeners through.This is what
radio does best.


In this episode, I shelve my original plan of talking about the
1,000,000th podcast to go into Apple Podcasts and react to the
great radio I listened to on Monday on Q104 in Halifax, and 89.3
K-Rock in Kentville. We explore how connected Maritimers are to
one another, using myself as an example having lived there for 5
years. There are about 2 degrees of separation in every
relationship - or at least it feels that way. We also speak with
Q104 program director Trevor Wallworth spoke to me about how he
and senior management at Stingray, Steve Parsons and Steve Jones
formulated a plan to get the Maritimers healing. Also Darrin
Harvey who appeared on this podcast episode recently, shared
parts of his show from Monday too.
