Gutters, Porch Pirates, and $1,000 Moves
What if all it took to double your future savings was moving cities? Handy Andy Baryer joins Shane Hewitt for a practical (and funny) discussion on the financial case for relocation — and why so many people hesitate, even when the math makes sense.
Then the conversation turns from dollars to driveways: Andy drops winter maintenance tips that could save your gutters — and your wallet. Plus, what happened when a mysterious Amazon box appeared on his porch… and then vanished. This episode mixes financial strategy with hands-on advice for staying one step ahead of weather, waste, and thieves.
Should Kids Be Influencers — Or Is It Just Digital Child Labour?
From toy reviews to brand deals, kid influencers are big business. But should kids be allowed to profit from social media before they even understand it? Handy Andy Baryer joins Shane Hewitt to tackle the fast-growing kidfluencer economy, why the EU is cracking down, and whether Canada should follow suit.
They unpack the tension between creativity and exploitation, the blurred lines between play and paid content, and the real issue behind the trend: parenting. Plus, they debate a wild new use of AI — recreating lost loved ones as digital avatars. Comforting or creepy? Maybe both.

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.
