In this special Joy Episode, generously sponsored by the wonderful team at Ganong Chocolatier, James celebrates the best days of listeners’ lives. After putting out the call for uplifting stories, he was flooded with hundreds of inspiring, heart-warming, and downright magical “best day ever” moments, and in this episode he shares many of the most extraordinary. From simple kindnesses to life-changing milestones, these listener stories are a reminder that even in a time of chaos and unease, joy is still out there… and often closer than we think.

To purchase Ganong’s new Sea Salted Caramels and Peanut Butter Caramel Clusters that James can’t stop raving about, please visit Shoppers Drug Mart, Sobeys, Safeway, Foodland, Canadian Tire, Atlantic Superstore, Dominion or Walmart Atlantic.

James also opens up about the unexpected two-week break from the podcast - yet again the busiest stretch of his career! He takes listeners behind the scenes of an exhilarating run of shows and keynotes for NBCC and RBC, the massive Rothesay Yule fundraiser that brought more than 1300 people together, a whirlwind of filming projects, and the release of Nancy Regan’s new TV show, including what it felt like to have two episodes dedicated to his own story.

He also reflects on precious family time, Christmas movies, hockey nights, and the inspiring students and teachers he met across the province last week. A warm, uplifting, heartfelt episode designed to lift spirits, bring smiles, and remind us of the goodness in the world - one joyful moment at a time.
