66 - Salt Spring Coffee: Business is Care + Community
In today’s episode of Glo Says Let's Talk LocalPodcast - Season 6 - Special Shorts(a weeklyBusiness,EntrepreneurandArtsPodcast)host Gloria Chong talk to guest Mickey McLeod(co-founder of Salt Spring Coffee) about his 25 years of coffee roasting in the Vancouver area. Mickey joins Glo to share his humble beginnings, explain Salt Springs life long commitment to sustainability and community, plus learn where he sees the future of coffee roasting for his business.

Key Quotes:
The Way to Do Business
"But to me, that's the only way to do business, you know, you have to care about it, and care about people and the process, and, you know, the planet and all of that, we just have done that forever. So it's what we do."
Coffee Is Like Art
"The thing about coffee, which is kind of interesting is that it's kind of like art, you know, I mean, you can interpret in a different way. So you could give 10 coffee roasters, the same coffee and you'll probably get a different taste of 10 different coffees because they're gonna do it their own way."
Sustainability is Broad, Care is Specific and More Precise
"That's why I don't really like using the word sustainability, because it can be overused, and not really understood. That's why we talk more about caring. If you start from the first part of the process, and care about the person, the family that grew the coffee, and give them the attention they need, and then they care about they're doing and then you care about the cooperative that's helping them and then you know, you care about the trader that we're working with, you know, got good relations, you just care each step of the way and then you can kind of drill down from there."

60 - Jump Over The Chasm With Ken Lum
In today’s episode of of Season 5 - What ART thou? Where ART thou? host Gloria Chong and her co-host Kristin Lim talk to guest, Ken Lum the creator of the iconic East Van Cross and his connection with Vancouver. He shares generously and genuinely about his background and about his journey to becoming an Artist Extraordinaire.
Episode Highlights
• 3:20 – Gloria says, Ken is a world famous artist with roots in Vancouver. He is currently the Chair of Fine Arts at the University of Pennsylvania.
• 4:35 – Ken states that he went to SFU as he just needed to get a new start.
• 7:33 – Ken didn’t know anything about Contemporary Art but then he discovered at SFU, there was a Center for Contemporary Arts and they were just starting at that point.
• 11:29 – Art wasn't a dream for Ken; it was more of like an escape from lab life or escape from factory life.
• 19:21- Kristin asks Ken, when he started to pick-up his camera and go around photographing.
• 22:29 – Ken’s career started before he started doing a MFA at UBC.
• 28:15 – Ken went the academic route because having a salary gives you some breathing space in the marketplace.
• 30:52 – Ken is working towards the show in New York and in January, one of his screenplays is under discussion right now.
Interesting Points

2. Some artists have no problem with the market, but he always had a problem with it because it's always compromising of one's ideals of what art should do and how art should perform and that's one of the reasons he took the academic route.
Interesting Quotes
• “My mother was really upset with me especially when she found out I was interested in being an artist.” – Ken Lum
• “I didn't want to be in a lab coat in lab, for my life. I mean, that's fine for other people but for me, I wanted something more.” - Ken Lum

Look up Alexina Louie, one of Canada's most celebrated composers and an early student of Jean Lyons. She wrote a piano composition called "Put On Your Running Shoes" that I found exciting to listen to. Find it here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1sQ54j26VVQ

36 - Savary Island Pie A La Mode
This episode is about Brad Hall continuing his mother's legacy of making pies our community.

"A mother is a person who seeing there are only four pieces of pie for five people, promptly announces she never did care for pie.” ― Tenneva Jordan
What a lovely sentiment! However, I think I'm more from this camp -

Alligator Pie, Alligator Pie
If I don't get some, I think I'm gonna die,
Give away the green grass, give away the sky,
But don't give away my Alligator Pie!
by Dennis Lee
(**first verse of my favourite elementary school poem)

There's only one thing to do here - get some handcrafted pie with handcrafted ice cream (made in your local community, for us it's Savary Island always) for family time around the kitchen table. You will have the best memories!!

32 - Be a Superfan of Superflux
Today I talk to Adam Henderson, co-founder of the super popular Superflux Beer. He tells us how his hobby grew into a booming business.

ORIGIN STORY:
Somehow, they recalled that they both liked the Delorean with the flux capacitor in “Back to the Future” way back when.
Somewhere, Matt and Adam mentioned it to each other, probably while making beer.
One day, the thought came up again as they were searching for their company name.
Turns out, SUPERFLUX was the only word they both kinda liked.

REVIEWS:
Casual & Cool
Colourful + Courageous
Creative and Clever
Most importantly, Canadian.

27 - All Aboard!! Skipper Otto Community Supported Fishery
One Fish, Two Fish, Salmon Fish, Tuna Fish. Skipper Otto catches this!

Did you know that migratory Albacore tuna found off the coast of B.C lacks mercury? So don’t be afraid of eating too much of THIS tuna.

Did you know that Sockeye salmon is not available every season so if it’s Coho this year, eat Coho instead.

When we as consumers, understand the multi year cycles of abundance in seafood, then we also understand that it makes more sense to eat with the ecosystem rather than expect a certain species on our plate at any given time in the year.

This one has a little car. This one has a little star. What a lot of fish there are!

I got to spend an hour with the Head Cheese at Nat’s. Very generously he sat with me and I had a wonderful time listening to his story. Thanks Nat! Before you do the same with this podcast, go grab a Cheese Slice. It’s simply the best combo of dough, tomato and cheese. Hold it with your index finger, third finger and thumb and kind of fold it, crimp-like, while standing. No utensils required. You might need a napkin or two! Check out the chalk art all over Nat’s walls. Eat + repeat. Enjoy!

Siblings Jess and Andy spend their days dreaming up flavours for their large, "big boy" 5oz, as large as a hockey puck and as heavy as one too" - cookies to sell at their online bakery, Bak'd Bakery. Then they prep, mix and bake often at night! Still up for fun, they playfully ask their customers for suggestions and to vote for their choices. Good that they are best friends - there is no sibling rivalry here - well, except for when it comes to what flavour to make next :)

The Vancouver Coffee Snob characterizes himself as “someone who has no business reviewing coffee.” With that tag line, I was immediately intrigued. Turns out he is on a mission to review all the higher end coffee shops in Greater Vancouver and plans to make his way down south and over yonder. You can find reviews on his website, see who won the Snobbie awards, or download the “Siply” app to save money and get his recommendations on where to find the best coffee near you.
