Nobodies Are Somebodies Podcast with Chad Vice

An F-Road is not what you might think it is on first hearing the term mentioned, but Jason will set you straight. Here he recounts his entire road trip around the country of Iceland, from the planning stages to some paperwork red tape to the coming home and all the adventures and site seeing he and his best buddy Jesse encounter while there. Jason also elaborates on the cultural and lifestyle diff...

Dayton goes through his whole life story from the age of 4 up until present, and since it's the first time that he's ever tracked his own story, we jump around a bit but it still flows quite naturally. We discuss his strained relationship with his father and growing up in an interesting family dynamic. From there we move on to his life as it is now, from meeting the love of his life to proposing t...

The news of the world that we live in today can range from the outlandish to the out-of-handish, and everything in between. This episode of the podcast was recorded in the studio on Wednesday August 16th, 2017, and as you can tell, it's not exactly breaking news. It's a random idea from two random guys, as finally my good buddy Fred arrives at the studio and helps me read the newspaper headlines (...

Spina bifida is a birth defect where there is incomplete closing of the backbone and membranes around the spinal cord. Mary Villenueve lives with a physical disability every day of her life, but what's more telling is people who interact with her a more concerned with their own biases towards people with PDs than actually trying to educate themselves on what a persons challenges are. Mary tells st...

Mitchell Chestnut don't break no rules, and he's got a story to back that claim up. I'm glad to have Mitch back in the studio for a follow-up chat, as when I last spoke to him, we discussed the passing of his mom, then 8 months fresh in his mind. Now, 1 year removed from her passing, Mitchell talks about what drives him now, his career and career goals, his education and future endeavors in Polici...

I swear, the 'Marie' names in this series are coincidental only, and not some sort of cheap gimmick... dot com! Can one night change your life, even if you aren't a part of it? My interview with Sydney Marie, is one I'm very happy to have to bring to all the listeners. I'm super proud of her and I am excited for her story to be heard. I pretty much based this whole episode around her (one) story b...

Welcome to the first part in the 'Nobodies in Toronto' series , and here is my first guest that I interviewed within the (barely) first hour of arriving at my temporary surrogate condo building apartment in the beautiful city of Toronto. Danielle Marie talks about managing and running a seniors retirement home facility, basically on her own shoulders, and all the challenges and rewards that come w...

How much did you ever want to know about Chad Vice? His childhood fantasies, his favorite music, movies, interests, and why he started doing business online? What was the one instant that triggered his sudden but now growing love affair with online commerce and later, podcasting? Denise 'Niagara Falls' Hawken gets down to the line and asks the tough questions, but is Chad man enough to answer them...

I'm chatting with Canadian born Badr Elkorazati, who has his roots in Egypt, and I'm anxious to hear about daily life in Egypt as well as Turkey, both places he's quite familiar with. Right now Turkey is where his parents, brother and sisters currently reside, as his father is a member of the Canadian military serving NATO in the middle of a 3-year tour. Badr is in the studio to talk about how his...

Stephanie Bertrand is a strong, determined and independent woman who has overcome a very serious time in her life, but even though that drove her, it's not what she is defined by. This is her story and I am so very proud to bring it you all, my amazing listeners! Stephanie quickly finds out which friends and family that you can count on (and one person who couldn't be counted on). She is discussin...

Finally, it;'s here. It's recorded and it's ready for consumption; it's the final installment interview with my mom, the story-telling machine Mommy Vice, I finally get her one on one again for part 3 of 3, and this is an interesting and definitely dark conversation - it starts off discussing her current frame of mind and her expression of frustration over her current living arrangements and socia...

If you had to clean up or change the downtown core of your own city or town, what would you do? What would Eric. V do? Find out this answer and hear him promote the crap out of other things that are important to him and his wife Mary. It's Part of my talk with Mr. ECV of ECV Photography, and this one is not as intense for the faint of hearts out there (who I thank tremendously for listening to thi...

Not for the faint of heart or ears, this solo interview with Eric V. (I mean, without his wife) has definitely got a good story in here somewhere, but reads like a random thought blog on the life and times of Eric Villeneuve, the man behind his ECV Photography business. Eric discusses more of his family drama and dynamics in this 1st of 2 part episode, it was so much that we couldn't contain it al...

Not a Dr. Seuss character, but a funny character in her own right, Cindy Lou Who has traveled to many interesting places and also discusses her time living in Germany. I took my podcasting prowess to her home, and met her lovely household of animals; you can actually hear her dog, Hank, panting away in the background at many different points during the interview! We also discuss her plans for taki...

Probably the youngest guest I've had on the show thus far, McKinley Townsend is here and to celebrate that, I finally was able to convince my good buddy Fred to be a co-host for this episode. Cool beans. Since Fred knows her best, he set me up with her to be a guest on the podcast and I am very thankful for that. McKinley discusses where she's from, how her name came to be, a potentially horrific...

Everyone needs a little TLC, right? I don't mean the TV Network. I don't mean the awesome song by country group Alabama. I don't mean one of the more popular wrestling style matches. I don't even mean Tender Loving Care! No, this is some TINDER loving care coming at you this week. Stories about the fun of online dating? I've got two of them here for you! I even have a story of my own, kind of, but...

'One might assume I'm referring to a pot of gold. My rainbow represents Autism Spectrum Disorder; and my child, like so many others, is on the spectrum. Approximately 1 in 68 children are diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder. These numbers continue to rise. Families living with ASD face many challenges. Whether emotional or financial; these families are drowning. We can look away. We can throw...

What's the difference between Niagara Falls, Ontario, Niagara Falls, NY, and Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario? I have no idea. And if you don't know them either, you've come to the right place for answers. My guest this week Denise answers those burning questions and discusses her life and times between leaving her home in Niagara to moving to the big scary city of Toronto then finding her way up to t...

It's Fred, Fred, Fred in this Fred-o-rama special! My good buddy Fred has infiltrated the podcast this week; he's all over the intro, the guest spot, and the outro.

Mr. Music Kevin Ganley is back and he's talking about all his latest meet and greets, like meeting a very special drummer who is not Eric Singer, and the surprise meet and greet that came about behind it. We also started off the show talking about his experiences with most of the cast of the Sons of Anarchy TV show, as well This episode is our pre-show "party" before we saw the John Corabi acousti...

"Brother" Mitchell Chestnut is not my brother, but he's got a great reason to be referred to as such. We start the conversation off light but then get into a darker subject and time in his life, but like all good stories, there is a positive outcome and I am glad I was able to capture his story. Mitchell is just 21 years old but has a wise and astute look on his life and goals. A late night talk a...
