Enjoy an all-Canadian playlist with today's berry, the humble huckleberry. 

On this episode we have 3 fantastic guests:  Jake Touzel from Sleepcircle, Randy Wasstrom, and Utility Provider.

We interviewed Jake just before he headed on stage to a SOLD OUT show at The Rickshaw.

Randy will be giving us some snow driving tips just in case the winter weather does show up.  Best to be prepared.

And we saw Utility Providers first show since the pandemic at The White Hart Pub in Surrey.

Enjoy!

Today's berry is the Callicarpa or the beautyberry. 

On this episode we visit two locations in East Vancouver one block apart from each other.

We first dropped in ARTS OFF MAIN Gallery and the lovely Eileen Mosca gave us the grand tour.  So many wonderful local artists with a variety of styles and genres.

Then we head down to Joe's Cafe on Commercial Drive and we interviewed Roman Pipinnelli.  He's a mobile barber who donates his talents to anyone who can not afford barbering services.  

We also added a word from Dr. Keith Tong and he'll have some tips on anxiety.

This is East Van baby!  Wham Bam EAST VAN!

Episode 78 of the PBA Podcast:

Powered by Age: Age-Friendly City Podcast (S3 E28). Our 78th Zoomcast October 28,
2021; Putting out Your Best Voice Possible. Hosted by #CharlotteSistaCFerrell

Charlotte updates the goal for exploring ways to “put our best voices possible” in reading or
creative writing is to increase opportunities to have our work published as audio books or
included in “listening sessions” hosted on websites, such as PBA or community radio stations,
such as CJSF. She invites us to introduce ourselves with a notable event associated with the date
on a coin, and to describe the types of writing we enjoy doing. We share feedback on an exercise
where we read short segment of our own, or others’ work.

Lesley Hebert plays with reading part of her travel story Soccer Fever at different speeds, and
reads it normally later in the podcast.

Neill Ryon repeats the exercise with an extract from The Artists Way by Judith Cameron and we
discuss the goals of these reading exercises.

We give Delsa Degait feedback on a reading of Sad Guru’s advice on fear, anxiety and
insecurity.
We discuss an audio clip from Becoming by Michelle Obama.

Neill read part of his short story Universum Fabulum.

Charlotte provides ideas on how to use collaboration to meet the challenges of self-publishing
and recording audio books – two potentially income-generating activities several of our
podcasters have expressed a desire to pursue.

Today's SULUAU is another episode of the PBA Podcast:

We are going to learn the Who, Why and What about Influencers, and explore whether YOU could be one with our guest, Dr. Ramona Srinivasan.

She has been teaching in schools and colleges, across Mumbai for 40 years. Her students included Bollywood film stars, and the grandson of the then Prime Minister of India, Morarji Desai.
She has written several textbooks in History and workbooks in French. I received a publication award for her published thesis, Diarchy in the Bombay Presidency.

Her other passions include singing, mostly Western music in choirs in India and Canada as well. She also sing spiritual songs in Sanskrit, known as bhajans (kirtans), which she continues here
on zoom every Sunday, with a group in Lagos, Nigeria. She has always been a voracious reader, and is ever grateful to the libraries in Canada, which permit
me to continue reading one fiction and one nonfiction book every week.

In Toronto, she joined the Active Adults Centre, in Mississauga, where she participated in various events, like a fundraiser with the Active Goan Adults, and volunteer work in Telephone Reassurance.
She now lives in Vancouver; and is a member of the 411 Sr. Center
