As Remembrance Day approaches, Terry sits down with Maureen and Randall Purvis of the No Stone Left Alone Memorial Foundation to explore how a promise made by a 12-year-old girl in 1971 grew into an international movement of remembrance. Since its official beginning in Edmonton in 2011, No Stone Left Alone has connected thousands of students with Canada’s military history by bringing them into cemeteries to place poppies on veterans’ headstones, say their names, and simply say, “Thank you.” Today, the initiative reaches hundreds of locations across multiple countries. Maureen and Randall discuss the importance of passing remembrance to a new generation, the upcoming Dance to Remember fundraiser, the power of volunteers and community support, and their vision for ensuring the mission continues for generations to come. It’s a conversation about service, sacrifice, gratitude, community—and keeping a promise that no stone will be left alone.Key TopicsThe origins of No Stone Left Alone and its significanceThe evolving recognition of veterans' sacrifices over the yearsUpcoming fundraising events including the Dance to RememberThe importance of community involvement and volunteer supportEducational efforts to keep the memory of fallen soldiers aliveThe role of government and military support for remembrance initiativesThe impact of international involvement and global recognitionStrategies for sustaining and expanding the organization’s reach Chapters (00:00) - Introduction to No Stone Left Alone and its significance(01:06) - Maureen and Randall Purvis share the origins of the organization(02:34) - Personal stories and the importance of remembrance(05:04) - Changes in remembrance practices over the years(07:00) - The impact of recent global events on remembrance awareness(09:22) - The significance of the annual Dance to Remember event(12:50) - The power of community and volunteer involvement(14:09) - The emotional experience of attending remembrance ceremonies(16:37) - Details about the upcoming Dance to Remember and fundraising efforts(19:20) - Exciting auction items and sponsorship opportunities(21:09) - The importance of volunteer support across Canada(22:51) - The national remembrance ceremony and future plans(26:01) - Ways to get involved and support No Stone Left Alone(30:02) - Fundraising ideas and ongoing support opportunities(32:55) - The significance of community support and military recognition(35:47) - Closing remarks and upcoming events Learn more about your ad choices.

Terry sits down with multidisciplinary Cree artist, actor, musician, writer, mentor, and entrepreneur Melody McArthur.

Another TBS Flashback!Comedian Patrice O'Neal stopped by The Terry, Bill and Steve Show ahead of his 2009 headlining run at the Comic Strip in West Edmonton Mall, and the conversation goes everywhere.  Sadly, we lost Patrice in November of 2011after a stroke took his life. This TBS Show was one of one. It was heard ONCE...and never again until now. O'Neal's unfiltered take on relationships, loyalty, and what he really thinks makes a marriage work — spoiler: it's not the fairy tale version is just part of this episode. The New Jersey-via-Boston comic opens up about life on the road, his first impressions of Edmonton (and its distinct lack of diversity compared to home), and how he reads a crowd during a Q&A set the night before. Sports fans will enjoy a deep dive into heartbreaking franchise moments, from Steve Smith's infamous own-goal against Calgary to the Patriots' near-perfect season gone wrong. Blunt, sharp-tongued, and never short on opinions, O'Neal delivers a candid, no-holds-barred conversation that's equal parts comedy and commentary. Key  TopicsThe role of honesty in comedy and relationshipsCultural differences in social interactionsThe evolution of language and social normsInsights into the entertainment industry and comedyPersonal stories and perspectives on life and loveTakeawaysHonesty in comedy can be a powerful tool for connection and reflection.Cultural norms influence how humor and social interactions are perceived.Language evolves and reflects societal changes, especially around sensitive topics.Authenticity and rawness are valued in comedy and personal relationships.Understanding different cultural backgrounds can foster empathy and better communication.Chapters00:00 - Introduction to Patrice O'Neal02:56 - The Nature of Anger and Cynicism05:44 - Relationships and Marriage Perspectives09:02 - Cultural Observations and Humor12:04 - The Impact of Political Correctness15:04 - Music and Personal Taste17:40 - Sports and Personal Experiences20:54 - Cultural Differences and Interactions24:04 - Language and Expressionwww.reluctantlypodcast.com @ZoneOnePodcast @TheWealthRoundUp @TheAlbertaGolfPodcast @thenetworkofgiving @DistilleryDiscovery #PatriceONeal #comedy #culture #relationships #entertainment #humor #TerryBillandSteveShow #interview #Canadiancomedy #politicallyincorrect  #socialcommentary Learn more about your ad choices.
