I dig R & R — records and radio! 💖
12 year ago — Dec 2013 — when DJ Magnificent was my WITH IT guest and he kept coming back and forth each month from Ottawa for nearly four years. He’s that good! The records, the friendship, the STYLE! Alex is back to spin with me on Nov 29 so don’t miss the last With It 60s Soul Party 💜🤎💜 of 2025!

This Saturday! 🌊☀️
Coming up August 9 at Summer Thing: Downtown Edition: @djnico.bsky.social

DJ Nico has been collecting music since she was 16, frequenting record fairs in Toronto. This started a lifelong obsession with learning about artists & music scenes through books/film/media, & exploring DIY zine culture.

And now the hard work begins. 🇨🇦

What an intense race for leadership. It was a matter of choosing how we get to a better place.

I look forward to witnessing what PM Carney and his government will do to unite Canadians and build a stronger nation, so we all prosper.

Vive le Canada ❤️

TCA - Trans-Canada Airlines was formed in 1937 by the Canadian National Railway to further expand transportation across the vast nation to connect cities. It was later renamed as Air Canada in 1965. Here’s an example of a poster ad. #CanadaStrong

Nine years ago, dropped by to see my pal @djblushto.bsky.social spinning for her Stones Place residency. Always smiles and good loving energy. Grateful for friends who inspire creatively and make you laugh. And listen when it all goes to shit and we pull each other outta the trenches. Love you B ❤️
