With support from the microgrant, Charlie brought More of That, Please! to life—hosting five pop-up podcast sessions across the Comox Valley, from farmers’ markets to Pulse on the Plaza. Participants shared inspiring, personal, and often surprising stories—from former firefighters reflecting on PTSD to the former Mayor of Cumberland highlighting the benefits of free healthcare. Dozens of uplifting clips were captured, amplifying the unique voices and positive spirit of our community.
