Shane Wenzel is the President & CEO The Shane Homes Group of Companies based out of Calgary, AB. With a newly added division in Dallas, Texas! Shane, yes the company was named after him, joined his father's home building company at a very young age. He learned the business from the ground up, and he not only built Shane Homes into a juggernaut right here in Calgary, he built his own brand with a faithful following as well. He's a social media creator, a mentor, a podcaster, a public speaker and an active member of the LGBT community. We get into the housing crisis, what the green climate goals federally add to housing costs for the average person. We also touch on Alberta Independence and if that could even work, the importance of Oil and Gas, Mens' Mental Health-being men's mental health awareness month. Shane is also a contributor to that cause. We touch on the dirty politics going on at City Council in Calgary, the blanket rezoning fiasco, AND we discuss Jyoti Gondek's performance, or lack thereof. Shane is a beacon in the community and an important voice, and he's never one to hold back. I absolutely enjoyed this chat, he's a true gentleman and a pillar in this community. Don't miss this one, he's such a fantastic speaker.

Michelle Ferreri is the now former Conservative MP Peterborough-Kawartha, Ontario. She is not even a month out of the job, and trust me, she still has a LOT to say. She was ripping through Calgary to watch her beloved Edmonton Oilers on their cup run, so we talk quite a bit about the Oilers, and the significance of what a Stanley Cup win could mean, for Canada. Michelle, still takes pride in the fact her Conservative team, lead by frontman Pierre Poilievre, successfully outed Justin Trudeau. In this episode we cover Alberta Separation and it's oil and gas resources, that she believes is the single biggest issue of our time. Well she came to the right place, because I sit in the same camp. We also dive into her experience leading into running as a candidate, and realizing she was up against a big machine, backed by the Liberal funded media. Michelle talks of her time and experiences with fondness, but also the hate that she felt that was almost insurmountable, and well in the end, it truly was. We also get into some funny business in Canada as it pertains to MAID, and its lobbyists pushing for access and availability to young people with mental illness. As always, Michelle is a pleasure to host and she is an extremely strong voice in Canada for conservatism. I am proud to call her a friend. Enjoy!!!! Follow Michelle Ferreri:

​Jasmin Laine is the host of the hit Youtube podcast "Over Opinionated". The show tackles Canadian politics daily, with the common underlying theme of holding our government to account. The former broadcaster, turned online sensation consistently ranked in the Top 5 in Canada, just behind Joe Rogan for Canadian podcast listenership during the 2025 Federal Election. There is no holding back in this episode as we tackle everything from how she found herself on her own Podcast, dissecting liberal policies, defunding the CBC, what some of the current bills may do for Canadian independent media, Alberta Separation, what it was like to interview Pierre Poilievre and so much more! We had a blast in this one so buckle up folks! Jasmin is a powerhouse and is, what I believe, to be an extremely important voice for all Canadians given the current state of affairs here.
