The Start

The writers strike has been averted.  This would have caused late night talk shows to stumble and movies that are currently in pre-production to halt.  It would have meant re-runs, re-runs, and more re-runs on TV.  Enough to make you get sick of even your favourite shows.  That got The Team to thinking about shows we have just given up on and why.  We're Having Coffee, Talking - Giving Up TV Shows...

Our Defence Minister, Harji Sajjan, is in a bit of hot water because he did something we learn we should not do at an early age.  He lied.  Shadoe has some thoughts about lying and its repercussions.

Shadoe read an entertainment news story about a Disney Star trying to broaden his "acting chops" by taking on the role of a young Jeffrey Dahmer... and thought taking this role may have been a decision that could kill his career.  What decisions do people make everyday that could change the course of their lives forever?

I was going to type something in here about what is was Shadoe talked about, but I forgot.

A woman was rescued from a construction crane she had scaled in Toronto yesterday.  This got The Team to thinking about their own bravery/stupidity.  We're Having Coffee, Talking - How Much Nerve Do You Have?

Tim Horton's has just opened up in The UK.  Will it be successful?  Why is Tim Horton's so successful here in Canada?  What successful restaurants would you like to see imported into Canada?  We're Having Coffee, Talking - Tim Horton's.

There's that "Check Engine" light again... should you be concerned?  Maybe.  Shadoe has some thoughts on that pesky illumination in your dash.

Todd Dube of Wise Up Winnipeg joined Shadoe to discuss his newest fight against photo radar.

Shadoe was at the driving range on the weekend and was bit by a mosquito.  He then quickly went to his local Hardware/Automotive/Lifestyle store to find out how he could prevent this from happening ever again.

You can now take a diving trip to search The Titanic... if you have a spare $105,000 US.  That got The Team to thinking about where they would go if they had the spare $105,000 to go on vacation.  We're Having Coffee, Talking - Expensive Vacations.

A "Coach-Killer" and a "Frappuccino-Killer".  2 people that may feel more entitled than they should. We're Having Coffee, Talking - A Tale of 2 20yr Olds.

Today is the 25th Anniversary of a concert that gathered some of the biggest names in music as well as 72,000 fans at Wembley Stadium and Millions of televsion viewers worldwide.  It was the Tribute Concert for Freddie Mercury.

This week we salute The RM of Alexander as Shadoe speaks with Reeve Raymond Garand.

Why do many of us like to re-watch movies over and over and in some cases over again?  Shadoe asked himself this question, then did a little investigating.

The Chicago Cubs gave out their World Series Rings to Players, and Staff... with a caveat... if they are going to sell the ring, they must sell it back to the baseball club for $1.  This got The Team to thinking about expectations we have when giving gifts.  We're Having Coffee, Talking - Gift Giving

We've all wanted to get out of doing something one time or another... we've all tried to come up with excuses... most of them are pretty lame.  Shadoe has some ideas that you just may not have thought of before. (Then again, maybe you have)

Shadoe has the story of a dad many think should be up for "Father of The Year"... or should he?  The Team is Having Coffee, Talking - Father of The Year?

When his hometown football team, The Chargers, decided they were going to ditch San Diego, super-fan Scott Morton decided he was going to ditch the NFL and went searching for another team to support.  To our excitement, Scott landed on The Winnipeg Blue Bombers, and tells Shadoe why.
