Grab the confetti and crank up the volume because Jointhe Fray has officially hit 30 EPISODES! 🥳

To celebrate this mega milestone, Fraser is stepping out of the solo spotlight and bringing on a extra-special guest: his show producer and marketing specialist dad, Chris! For the first time ever, Chris flips the script and jumps on the guest side of the mic to talk about what it’s really like building this podcast together.


In this special retrospective episode, Fraser and Chris diveinto:

  • 🎙️The Biggest Takeaways & Guest Wisdom: From Milo of Dumb Doggo on managing stress, to voice actor Ric Herbert on building your own path, and K-Pure Naturals founder Karen Hoekstra turning a kitchen project into a national brand.
  • 🌊The Great Marine Biologist Mystery: Why almost every single guest wanted to be a marine biologist at 9 years old (even though we haven't interviewed one yet!).
  • 🐿️Wacky History & Unexpected Lore: Laughing over Vancouver's wild historical stories from guest Ian McDonald, like the runaway black squirrels and the infamous first ambulance run!
  • 🔮What's Coming Next: A sneak peek into future dream guests including police officers, journalists, and yes, maybe an actual marine biologist (or hopefully the team behind My Octopus Teacher)!

 

Thank you to all our incredible listeners across Canada, theUS and all the way to Japan for joining us on this journey. Here's to the next 30 episodes!
