SWIM ON:

  • Speaking of Year Three, last week's UnSpun was the official kickoff to the (wait for it) third year of the show. Only difference is the four-year mandate. Jody and George can keep doing this show forever, if I have anything to say about it. And I do!
  • Jody Vance references the big news in her world: as an essential caregiver, she has received the first dose of COVID-19 vaccine. Here's how it happened.
  • Vancouver City Councillor Sarah Kirby-Yung walked you through the process (and more) of how the city moved towards establishing a new office. WATCH THE SAUSAGE GET MADE.
