    Nov 21 2024
    Wish We Never Met singer Madeline Merlo? Listen to the new episode of WWNM to find out!

    The CCMA-Award winning performer and chart-topping songwriter joins Amy and Dan to share a “Wish I Never…” story about her one regrettable tattoo, before discussing her recent Opry debut, how challenging a move to Nashville is for a Canadian artist, and a lot more.

    Merlo’s new EP ONE HOUSE DOWN (from the girl next door) is out now and trust the co-hosts when they say that every, single track is a BOP!

    Dan and Amy also talk Kelly Clarkson holiday tunes and debate whether or not she’s a “gay icon”, before segueing to the charm of Tiffani Amber Thiessen and Jennifer Love Hewitt…and Ghost Whisperer too, naturally.

  • The magic of Whistler, Jason Priestly, and makeshift porta potties

    The magic of Whistler, Jason Priestly, and makeshift porta potties
    Nov 14 2024
    Wish We Never Met,er, Went to Whistler? Absolutely not because it's one of the best mountain towns in the world! On the new episode of WWNM, Amy and Dan are chatting live on location from the Fairmont Chateau Whistler during the town’s famed food and wine festival, Whistler Cornucopia.

    Aside from experiencing a wine dinner hosted by Jason Priestly, and possibly scaring the famous actor, Dan chronicles the magic to be found in Whistler’s small-but-mighty food scene. (And if you haven’t been to Bearfoot Bistro, you haven’t lived.)

    A drive from Vancouver to Whistler makes Amy reminisce about family road trips, and the makeshift porta potty her mom constructed for the back of their family van so the kids could go at leisure and not slow down the highway progress. Ah, the early 90s...

    All of this and more on this week’s episode, so buckle up and stream away!

  • Crappy charcuterie, Jason Segel jaywalking, and Amy Winehouse

    Crappy charcuterie, Jason Segel jaywalking, and Amy Winehouse
    Nov 7 2024
    Wish We Never Met each other? The answer is YES, but still listen to this WWNM episode anyway.

    Starting things off with a cheers, Amy and Dan try the new(ish) Inversion Nitro Cocktails to surprising results, before chatting about Mailroom Vodka’s unique approach to marketing and bottle design.

    With the recent streaming release of the Amy Winehouse film Back to Black, the co-hosts chat a bit about the one-of-a-kind singer’s rise to fame and sad demise. The conversation reminds Amy about chance encounters with celebrities like Winehouse when she lived in LA.

    Jason Segel and Russell Brand jaywalking, she claims? Can you believe it?!

    Have you ever thought about how cranberries are grown? Hopefully Dan was the only person that thought they grew under water. Seriously…

    Don’t fret, he somewhat redeems himself with a fun chat about the upcoming Prime Video series 'The Sticky', followed by a few charcuterie and holiday party food tips too.

    Singer Alyssa Reid, dolphins, and fake crab meat too
    Oct 31 2024
    Wish We Never Met chart-topping singer Alyssa Reid? Listen to this WWNM episode and find out!

    With big, BIG hits like “Alone Again”, “Satisfaction Guaranteed” and “Dangerous”, Alyssa Reid is one of the most recognizable voices in the Canadian pop music. The chart-topping singer shares a dolphin-centric “Wish I Never…” story with Amy and Dan that you must hear. (And you may never be the same.)

    From there, Reid talks about being back on tour across Canada, with her final show in her hometown of Edmonton on Nov. 6, how her teenage years on YTV affected her, sifting through the noise to find good music online, and more.

    While Dan talks about Adele hug-lunging(?) at Celine Dion recently, Amy shares a “Wish I Never…” story that revolves around Dan and imitation crab meat. Truly a seafood-heavy episode today! ;)

    Muppets vs. Sesame Street Puppets, and TV host Alan Shane Lewis!
    Oct 25 2024
    Wish We Never Met comedian and TV host Alan Shane Lewis? Listen to this episode of WWNM and find out!

    The Great Canadian Baking Show     co-host joins Amy and Dan to talk about his love of The Simpsons, his interesting career arc that includes success as a comedian, writer, and TV personality, and a lot more.

    His “Wish I Never…” story     has ties to SNL and Paul Rudd. It’s hilariously awkward, and you’ve gotta hear it!

    The co-hosts also chat about     the difference between Muppets and Sesame Street Puppets (Dan thought they were the same), how "all the kids" are vapping these days, and MasterChef Canada being rebooted...and does anyone care?

    White Claws are out, Happy Dads are in, and we love Kim Stockwood
    Oct 18 2024
    Wish We Never Met Amy and Dan? You bet! Here’s what’s on the agenda for this episode of WWNM:

    Are White Claws (finally) out? The co-hosts say yes—while sipping on some refreshing Happy Dads (not sponsored, but they wish!)

    Having a favourite kid out of all of your friends’ offspring is not something everyone is willing to admit, but Dan has no qualms about it after a recent trip home to Saskatoon.

    Lastly, there’s a lot of great Canadian music out lately including a new one from the east coast icon Kim Stockwood, which has the co-hosts reminiscing about their first concert experiences.

  • Spinach salad IS the worst salad, and the magic of Kue Varo

    Spinach salad IS the worst salad, and the magic of Kue Varo
    Oct 10 2024
    Wish We Never Met art rocker Kue Varo? You’ll need to listen to the new episode of WWNM to find out!

    Before co-hosts Dan and Amy dive into all things pleasantries, witchcraft, and music-making with the award-winning performer Kue Varo, they discuss one of life’s biggest disappointments: spinach salad.

    Why IS spinach salad THE worst? (Lots to unpack here.)

    Amy takes a hard left from salad talk to her thoughts on Disneyland and Disney adults. Is Dan a Disney adult? (The answer is clear.)

    Raccoons, celeb drag queens, and TV host Ann Pornel too!
    Oct 3 2024
    Wish We Never Met TV host and comedian Ann Pornel? Listen to the new episode of WWNM to find out!

    Before the hilarious co-host of The Great Canadian Baking Show joins Amy and Dan to share her "Wish I never..." story (waterfalls and cliffs, oh my!), the duo talk a bit about celebrity drag queens like Bob the Drag Queen and Laila McQueen and how far the drag industry has come in the past 10+ years. As well, Amy shares a farily horrific stomach flu story that will surely leave her twins scared for life.

    Also, raccoons in Toronto are a real vibe, and as Ann Pornel shares, one has infiltrated the GCBS tent for Season 8. :$
