Episode six, the spotlight is on...event stories that have gone viral on the internet!
From The Sepia Bride (the filter OG Instagram users used to love to hate/hate to love), to slave ships at weddings, we're covering stories that got the Reddits and comment section on TikTok going!
I even pull in an extra special guest to validate why parents don't need to break the bank on kids birthday parties. (Hint, he lives in my house rent free...literally) and the newest trend of no tech zones at weddings.

Virtual events are here to stay

Episode five, the spotlight is on...virtual events.
When the pandemic hit, the world was forced into virtual galas, summits and everything else in between. Now just four years later, and everyone officially 'zoomed out', we're chatting with Dionne Bishop, CEO & Event Strategist of Events By Dionne to see if they are staying in the rearview of history, why hybrid is here to stay (in our veteran opinions) and why virtual events aren't easier and cheaper to produce.

Go DJ Go: Dropping event DJ'ing facts with DJ Lissa Monet

Episode seven, the spotlight is on...one of the most important event components - the music!
We sit down with seasoned event, club and corporate event DJ Lissa Monet, a 6x award-winning female DJ based in Toronto with over 15+ years of rocking nightclubs and corporate events around the world. In 2016 she DJed Beyoncé's Formation World Tour VIP events in Toronto and Detroit. (Does this make me 2 degrees of separation from Beyoncé???)
She also co-founded LUXELIFE SOUND, an all-female DJ boutique agency where amazing female DJs are placed at exclusive private and corporate gigs across North America. She is also the creator of THAT SLOW JAM PARTY, Toronto's first-ever all-slow jam party.
We talk what clients AND guests should know, how DJing has changed since the days of hauling milk crates with vinyl records, pet peeves and what the alt title of the podcast might have been.
