22. Season 5 - Episode 22 - Lloyd Robertson - In Memory
39:31||Season 5, Ep. 22"This week, we bring you a very special edition as we listen back to an unforgettable conversation with a true icon of Canadian media: the legendary Lloyd Robertson. When this podcast launched back in 2021, Lloyd was the very first guest I invited to my program. I was completely taken aback when he, without hesitation, agreed. In retrospect, I shouldn't have been surprised. Like so many Canadians, I have always held an immense respect and admiration for his work and how he assisted and inspired both young and veteran broadcasters alike. Looking back at this episode, I am filled with gratitude for his generosity and will always remember exactly what his support meant to me at the start of this journey. Tune in for an inspiring look at an extraordinary career."
