Ep.48 - The Why Part II - Reflections on 2020
Tuesday Jan 05, 2021
Tuesday Jan 05, 2021
What a long and strange year it has been. In this episode, we reflect on this past year, our reasons for starting the podcast and why we continue to do it today. Despite the weariness that has come from COVID, we are reinvigorated by the turn in direction we've taken with LiveWild Radio. We branched out from just our outdoor and adventure themes to the broader topic of personal growth and finding your passion. Such episodes include talking with other adventurers about a transgender's journey (Ep. 28 - Living Your Truth - Alex Vaillancourt) to mental health (Ep. 27 - Face of Mental Health) to even fishing (Ep. 43 - Next Level Fishing - The Great White Knight). We hope you've enjoyed this year, even with its challenges and thank you for coming along on this journey with us. Here's to new adventures and making new friends in 2021.

Ep. 46 Don't Let Winter Keep You Inside
Wednesday Nov 25, 2020
Wednesday Nov 25, 2020
We can complain about how things aren't like they used to be or we can adapt to the challenge and find new things to do. This episode we talk about how to make this winter a fun adventure even though it will mean that many of us have to do things differently.
We talk about embracing outdoor winter sports as they are fun and inherently socially distant. From snowshoeing and cross country skiing to ice climbing and winter camping, don't let Covid keep you from having a great season. We also hit upon some tips to help with the
winter blues and keep on top of your mental health.
While it means having to wear long pants, we've learned to love the challenges that winter brings. Give a listen and find a new winter passion of your own.

Not all adventures are in the forest. In this episode we talk to Matt Code who built his very own earth ship in Collingwood, Ontario. After an afternoon of mountain biking we sat down in his dining room to talk about what an earth ship is and what it is like to have a low impact sustainable home. From reusing rainwater and storing the heat of the sun in the walls to generating electrical power with solar panels, his home is home is as close to being off the grid as it can while still being located in town. Interested in passing on the skills and knowledge he has gained, Matt has built a community both online and in real life of people interested in learning how to build their own sustainable homes and grow their own food.
