Music Milestones YYZ

Toronto has always been more than a city—it’s a soundtrack. On this show, Scot Turner and Ivar Hamilton, come together to tell the stories behind the city’s soundtrack. From legendary concerts at Massey Hall and Maple Leaf Gardens to the rise of Queen Street West, MuchMusic, CFNY, and the clubs that shaped generations—this podcast dives deep into the people, places, and sounds that made Toronto a music city. Part oral history, part backstage pass, and part love letter to the 6ix, this is where Toronto’s music past meets its present—and where fans discover why this city still matters on the world stage.

    Are You A Charlotte?

    In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
