I had my first ever Kijiiji experience this week. I traded a framed photo of Fred Penner circa 1991 to Fred Penner’s son in exchange for his dad singing The Cat Came Back on my voicemail. So yeah, I think I may have reached peak Kijiiji too soon. #cbcmb #cbcnowornever

Sooo, anyone here lose their sense of taste and smell with Covid, because I just did today and I don’t like it one bit. Not. One. Bit.

It’s been 25 years since I owned a bike and I would like to change that, the problem is the bike game has changed drastically since I was 17. I have no clue what to get! City bike? Hybrid? Road? Mountain? BMX? Expensive? Cheap? No brakes? Brakes? Tires? No tires? Any suggestions?

Sooo, I just found out my dog needs to have surgery to repair a torn acl in her knee. Has anyone here gone through this kind of surgery with their dog? I was wondering what to expect during the recovery besides me cuddling her 24/7 and giving her all of the treats.

You know what’s fun. Insomnia. Nothing like spending weeks on end being awake most of the night and exhausted most of the day. I don’t know what worries me more, my lack of sleep or my middle of the night YouTube search history. Anyone else struggling with sleep these days?

A co-worker of mine just told me that no one writes/sends handwritten letters anymore...like it's 100% factual. Then proceeded to tell me that an email is just as personal. This upsets me for reasons I can't figure out. I now want to bombard him with examples of how wrong he is.

Is there a Winnipeg neighbourhood that competes every year to set up the best Christmas light display? Or even a set of neighbours that always try to one up each other? I know they're out there, I just can't think of where they are. #cbcmb

Complete shot in the dark...but does anyone happen to know someone who might be celebrating their 100th birthday this week (or by the latest, next Tuesday?) #cbcmb #cbcradio #cbcnowornever

Does anyone happen to be celebrating a milestone birthday in the next week or so or know of anyone who is about to turn the same as a a parent that passed away?

I'll start....when my life started to fall apart in my 20's because of my OCD/anxiety, the one song that always calmed me was Pearl Jam's "Present Tense". It was like an anxiety pill for me...I would throw on my headphones and listen to it on repeat until I was calm.

We are putting together an entire episode on music and all the ways it can help a person, so.....I was hoping to put together a playlist of songs that have gotten people through hard events in their lives. Can you help me start a list? #cbcmb

First off, I paid them to say 'renowned' Second, I've lived with OCD/anxiety/panic since my early 20's. It's terrifying and can feel beyond lonely. That's why I love events like this, because the more we share our stories, the less alone someone might feel. Hope to see you there!

Fun Fact: I've officially taken over the CBC Now or Never Instagram page, which means....I'm basically tweeting with photo's. The fact that I am 40 and had never used Instagram before two weeks ago should not concern anyone. #cbcmb #cbcnowornever #cbcradio #cbc

Does anyone here jog/run to help with their mental health? I'm hoping to find someone to go with for our next episode "Taking the First Steps To Better Mental Health." All I ask is you keep your pace slow and don't get embarrassed by my wheezing #cbcnowornever #cbcmb

People who think seeing your new born baby for the first time is the best feeling in the world have obviously never come face-to-face with a puppet version of themselves. #itsglorious #cbcmb #nowornever

We are about to do a show on old memories and I really want to find someone who has an old answering machine message they can't get rid of, or a camcorder recording that means the world to them. Who can help me out! #cbcnowornever

Work families....do you have one?? If you do, tell me what makes them so amazing? Heck, what makes them better than your actual family (you never know)? We'd love to make a surprise visit to your work, so who has a great story to share? #nowornever

Alright, here's the deal. I hate camping. I refuse to do it. But my wife wants to one day take our kids camping because apparently hotels are just too comfortable. Sooo...is there anyone, who has small kids, that would want to have some fun teaching me how to camp? #cbcmb

Quick Question....what is a 'rite of passage' you think needs to be celebrated but isn't? I for one think a party should be thrown the day you start embracing going to bed at 9:30pm on a Friday night. Because it...is...glorious. #cbcmb #cbcnowornever

Three decades earlier, my family would drive every summer from Winnipeg to Calgary just so we could spend a couple of weeks with my Grandma (my mom's mom) and Grandpa. We'd pull up to the front curb...

Quick question: Is there a special place in your life that holds a lot of meaning that you would love to go back and visit again? I'm not talking time travel...I mean an actual place, like an old house or school. #cbcmb #cbcnowornever

My two year old son put on his shark robe last night and tried to scare me by making monster noises. Then he immediately took off his hood and said “It’s just me daddy!” proving once and for all my son thinks I’m an idiot. #cbcmb #cbcnowornever
