SH&TNS - Pucks, Politics, and the Open Sea

🎙 Welcome to Shane Hewitt & the Nightshift 🎙

Shane Hewitt and the Nightshift crew discuss the upcoming NHL playoffs, focusing on the excitement surrounding Canadian teams like the Ottawa Senators and the challenges faced by others, such as the Vancouver Canucks. They playfully discuss betting strategies (or lack thereof). Sticking with sports, Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s massive $500 million contract with the Toronto Blue Jays, is something most fans are celebrating.

Liberal Party staffers distributed pins at a conservative event with divisive slogans like "Make Canada Great Again" and "Lock Justin Up." Shane talks about the implications of this deliberate disinformation campaign and its impact on the Canadian election.

Bill King, is a musician, 30 year concert photographer, journalist and broadcaster. He joins the Nightshift to talk about how his childhood perception of the sea was shaped by religious tales of judgment and peril, contrasting sharply with the idyllic imagery often presented. A subsequent 64-day cruise offered a personal reckoning with this perception. While initially feeling confined, Bill became a captivated observer, documenting their journey through photography and literature. This experience transformed his fear of the sea into a deep appreciation for its beauty, mystery, and the rich literary history associated with it.
