The Advocate Podcast – Stories from Kawartha Lakes
Society & Culture
Our show covered a lot of ground in 2022. Literally, in some cases, with stories that had us following a trapper in search of beavers. And an interview with two your artists who transformed a ho-hum Lindsay alleyway into a wonderful mural you can walk on. There were conversations with neighbours about their special relationships to fishing – (including the ice kind) – a rebuilt 1982 motorcycle and even spoons. We spoke to a new mayor, lawn bowlers, singer-songwriters, standup comedians, civic leaders to name just a few.
There were stories that uplifted, inspired and/or challenged us.
We kick off this New Year with an audio retrospective of some highlights of some of these stories that define us and our community in unique ways.
