Snowpocalypse NOW!

Posted on by Posted in Where Monsters Dwell

Listen to us Wednesday at 8:30pm Eastern!

This week on Where Monsters Dwell we’ll be presenting you with an episode from our archives. Why you may ask? Well children, we’re going to get enough snow to make Fredericton look like Hoth. Again. That’s right, it’s not enough that we already have snow banks taller than a Wookie, but we’re getting another major storm that’s going to slam us like the Death Star slammed Alderaan.

Check in with us next week to make sure we’re still alive and find out what great guest we have on tap for episode 284!

Where Monsters Dwell is brought to you by Strange Adventures and Club Fred Grafx.

The Lunchbox: Chantelle McMullin, UNB Global Brigades

Posted on by Posted in The Lunchbox

LunchBoxThe world is big place, filled with interesting people and places, as well as needs and problems. University-aged people are the ones in one of the best positions to travel around the world and help solve these problems — and it’s good for students to see the world as it really is, with their own eyes, before they make judgments about it.

Chantelle McMullin is a fine example of such a student. She came in to tell me all about the UNB chapter of Global Brigades, who are currently gathering volunteers and support money for a trip to Honduras to help with medical and dental issues. We talked about this great opportunity and how students can and should get involved.

They are always looking for more volunteers. If you are interested, email unb.brigades@gmail.com to find out more.

The Lunchbox: Interviews: The Great Gathering, The Man Who Disliked Cats + Stream 2 Help

Posted on by Posted in The Lunchbox

LunchBoxOur community is wonderfully diverse, so it only follows that the community show — The Lunchbox — is also similarly diverse! Today, a trio of great interviews with three very different facets of our community: community organization, the arts, and gaming for charity.

First up, John Coates, one of the founder of The Great Gathering in Fredericton, joins me to talk about where the idea for the Gathering came from, what sorts of discussions happen there, and about it offers a very unique mingling and melding of perspectives to make our community even better. The Great Gathering 2014 will be held on March 15, starting at 8:30am, and held at the Fredericton Exhibition Centre.

Secondly, after having some communication issues on Thursday, I was finally able to get Tim Turnell on the phone. Tim is the story adapter, head dog washer, lead performer and director of a one-man monologue storytelling play entitled The Man Who Disliked Cats which opens tonight at TNB at 55 Whiting Road. The show runs Friday, Saturday and Sunday at 7:30pm, with a special “pay-what-you-can” matinee performance at 2pm on Sunday. We talk cats, acting and the hope that theatre will remain vital both inside this province and in the general world.

Finally, I have a brief chat with Joshua Green in Newfoundland. He’s organized a group of videogame-playing friends to do what they love to raise money for the charity Special Effect. The group called Stream2Help will be playing video games for 24 hours and streaming their performance to raise funds for a charity which makes specially-adapted hardware to allow disadvantaged children to play. We talk gaming, charity and how the Internet has brought those two things together.
