The Lunchbox: Banana Bread Day
Today is Banana Bread Day. I gave a few of my memories about the day on the show, but how about another alternate approach? Let’s talk about world commerce for a second. If you have bananas, where did they come from? Where were they grown? How did they make it to you? Isn’t it amazing

The Lunchbox Interview: Lori Quick, Nicholas Gibeault, John Doucette (Heavy Metal Art Zone)
We throw out too much stuff. Technology is a wonderful thing, and the pace of invention is incredible, but it has a dark side: waste. A phone bought brand new today may only have a useable lifetime of a few years. A desktop computer might be obsolete in 5 years, and your TV is reinvented every year.

The Lunchbox: Random Acts of Kindness (For Yourself & Others)
Today, it is suggested that we take two contradictory ideas and put them together: do things for others, and do them for ourselves as well. Pick some things that you want to do, and do them. Then pick a few things you can do for others, and do those. Assert yourself, but remember others. Act

The Lunchbox 2015-02-12: Lost Penny Day
What did you overlook today?

The Lunchbox: Telling stories with Passages Canada
Where do you keep your stories? Most people would point to something written down, journals or diaries or books, but I suspect that where your stories are really kept are in two, connected places: your head, and your things. Look around you: there are likely things that tell your stories in any place you inhabit

The Lunchbox: Improvisational Music with Sarah Beth Shiplett
There’s “making stuff up as you go”, and then there is improvisation… The first doesn’t take talent, necessarily, and the results are often just random; the latter, however, can take a lot of talent and practice to make something so spontaneously beautiful.. My guest today is Sarah Beth Shiplett of Music UNB and Music on the Hill.

The Lunchbox: Joe Blades on Unions
Ultimately, don’t we all just want to get along? Of course, what that actually looks like is what all the fuss is really about. We want to be fair, but not give away the farm. We want to have our rights, but not when overburden the system. We need to negotiate these things, and do it
