It's been 8 and a half years since Fred has been on the show. He's not being ignored. I see him every year on various trips to Toronto. This year, I missed my spring trip so I thought we'd just record our usual call.
We talked about Fred shares his transition from mornings at Edge 102 to afternoons at Q107, discussing the challenges of radio, mental health, and other crazy industry transitions. He reflects on mentors like Darrin Harvey and Dean Blundell who shaped his career, and candidly talks about his experiences with workplace changes and personal growth.
Fred has this love of comic books that I will never understand (and rather envy), his family and family life, and radio. We also explore critical industry topics like the impact of AI on creative fields, with Fred expressing strong concerns about intellectual property theft. I pushed back as I always do. (I also once suggested to Art Alexakis from Everclear that Napster was a good thing so you know how that conversation went, right?)
