From ghost stories to the masks we wear every day, Shane Hewitt, Jamie Ellerton, and Lindsay Broadhead take on Halloween from every angle — spooky, social, and psychological. What begins as a playful debate about whether ghosts are real turns into a deeper conversation about ego, authenticity, and how Halloween might reveal who we really are.
Along the way, they dissect why costumes have become more provocative, what it means to let go of pretense, and how belief and skepticism can both shape how we see the world. The trio closes with a look at political shifts in Newfoundland and what economic change means for Canada’s manufacturing future.
A sharp, surprising mix of humor, philosophy, and real-world reflection.

When Newfoundland’s long Liberal run ends, what does that say about Canada’s broader political mood? Shane Hewitt sits down with Jamie Ellerton and Lindsay Broadhead to unpack the changing dynamics of provincial politics, economic competition, and cross-border realities.
Jamie outlines how local issues — not national ones — drove the Newfoundland election, while Lindsay examines how provincial parties increasingly define their own priorities over federal agendas. The conversation expands to Stellantis’ move to the U.S., exploring how Canada can stay competitive without leaning on subsidies.
A candid, insightful talk about the need for pragmatic governance, smarter investment strategy, and maybe even a Blue Jays win to lift the mood.
