Jim Gilbert's acting credits include CBC's Moonshine, The Handmaid's Tale, Suits, The Girlfriend Experience, Salvation, and The Tudors, among others. As a writer, his original work has been optioned and developed by production companies in both the U.S. and Canada. His role in Moonshine is especially personal, as the show's setting and storylines mirror his own experiences growing up on Nova Scotia's South Shore.

In this episode, we chat with Jim, a natural storyteller, about Nova Scotia’s rich history, his family's connection to Kristen's art gallery "Togetherland"—they live right next door and have lent a hand on many occasions—and how his lifelong career in the arts parallels Mike's journey in music. Kindred spirits truly shine through in this conversation. We also celebrate Jim's recent marriage, his career successes, and his contagious adventurous spirit!

Tenille Goodspeed is just under nine months into her new role as Executive Director of Halifax Jazz Fest, one of Halifax’s most prominent cultural celebrations. With a strong background in marketing, music, and community building, Tenille brings a wealth of expertise to this multi-day festival. In our conversation, she shared her passion for bringing people together, the initial spark that drew her to the role, and the importance of showcasing Halifax’s unique identity—a core value of the festival’s mandate. Halifax Jazz Fest, the oldest jazz festival and largest summer festival in Atlantic Canada, draws up to 65,000 visitors each year, with the support of 400 volunteers and over 350 local musicians. Designated a Hallmark Event by the Halifax Regional Municipality, it’s an experience like no other, and Tenille encourages holiday shoppers to consider festival passes as gifts. Funny, articulate, and a natural leader, Tenille left a lasting impression on us, and we’re excited to highlight one of our city’s inspiring industry trailblazers.
