CAAAAR: Road Hockey Is and Always Will Be The Best

September 27, 2013 by Ryan 1 Comment

I experienced one of the great joys of being a parent yesterday - my two boys along with some other kids on the street played a game of road hockey. How amazing is that? There is nothing more Canadian than hearing the sound of those sticks slapping against the asphalt with the occasional “car” being … [Read more...]

Getting Colds 12 Months a Year (And How to Get Rid of Them)

September 25, 2013 by Ryan 3 Comments

I don’t know what is going on but my family is always sick. There are 4 of us in the house and there isn’t a day that goes by where at least one of us isn’t sick. You'd think we go around licking shopping carts or anything germ infested just for the sake of getting sick. I can’t figure it out - we … [Read more...]

Sleep: 8 Tips on How to Get Quality Over Quantity

September 18, 2013 by Ryan Leave a Comment

By far the number one question I get asked is, “What time do you wake up in the morning?” For those of you who don’t know, I work on ‘Derringer in the Morning on Q107.’ The show starts at 6am but I like to be at work for 4:30, plus I live two area codes outside of the 416 so I have to wake up … [Read more...]

Top 10 Terry Fox Facts, Figures & Accomplishments

September 13, 2013 by Ryan 81 Comments

We started a new feature on Derringer in the Morning called “List-o-Mania”. It’s a top 10 list of anything and everything under the sun. With the Terry Fox run happening on Sunday I thought it would be appropriate to come up a top 10 list for Terry Fox. I received a few emails from people that … [Read more...]

My Dirty Little Secret

September 11, 2013 by Ryan 1 Comment

I’m not 100% certain but I’m pretty sure my kids look up to me. I mean they’re 5 and 3 and next to Spiderman, I think I’m their biggest influence. But with that of course, comes a lot of pressure. They look to me for advice, love, snacks, and wisdom. I love my boys with all my heart and soul, and … [Read more...]

So much TV, not enough time

September 6, 2013 by Ryan 2 Comments

Todays topic is about TV.  I didn't really have an appropriate picture to put on this blog, so instead I posted a picture of our famous Christmas Punch.  Now, on with the show... Man, how long does it take you to finish watching a season of a TV show? I tell you what, it doesn't take me days, … [Read more...]

Rock n’ RoRy

August 30, 2013 by Ryan 1 Comment

I love that my kid not only listens to Q107 but plays along with the music as well. My wife took this video this morning and I had to share it with you. If you have a toddler that wants to be in a band, let me know. I've come up for a couple of band names for them... AB/CD Van … [Read more...]

‘Labour Day’ is the new ‘New Years Day’

August 28, 2013 by Ryan 3 Comments

I know that everyone has New Year resolutions but that is so yesterday, or should I say… so 9 months ago. I can’t tell you how many times I‘ve said, “This is my year; this is the year I eat better, drink less and exercise.” Inevitably by January 6th I’m back to my old ways and knee deep in powdered … [Read more...]
