Episode XXVII of Reader’s Delight features authors Irina Moga, David Giuliano, and Whitney French.
Irina Moga talks about her writing process, her love of poetry that fuses the cerebral and the sensory, and then reads from her new collection, Quantum, published by DarkWinter Press last year.

Bit of a scuffed show. Kept hitting the wrong button to unmute the mic for some reason. Ah well. One of these days I’ll do a show where everything goes smoothly.
I’ve rallying cries, beautifully restrained singing, spooky dance music, deep cuts and classics. Aside from the music, I chat a little bit about the KW Symphony and recent movie releases.
Image is from Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie, in theatres now. One song from here features in there (I won’t say which). Highly highly recommend seeing the movie while it’s still in theatres. A superficially Canadian movie I’ve ever seen, but it’s also a deeply and earnestly Canadian movie in how it’s filmed and funded. It plays fast and loose with copyright law and features footage that seems frankly impossible to have filmed. If you’ve never seen the show… Well, neither have I. See the movie anyway—it’s great.

Why Elite Professionals are Failing the Science of Keeping Wealth
In this episode, Senior Wealth Strategist Sunny Kochar sits down with Adam Finch, a Project Scheduling Specialist and Real Estate Investor, to discuss the “Baby Boomer Exodus” from the construction industry and the rising tide of AI. Adam shares his “Kinetic Wealth” journey, moving from a licensed carpenter to owning a multi-property portfolio that funds his lifestyle. Learn why the “Save and Wait” model is dead and how to apply an Engineering Mindset to your personal economy to retire 3x faster. We dive into the “Five Fs” of fulfillment and the critical importance of “Money Velocity” in a high-tax environment.
The “Big Domino”: Why Your High-Demand Skill is Not Your Security
Most high-earners are winning the ‘Income Game’ but losing the ‘Science of Keeping It.’ Whether you are a PhD or a Master Tradesperson, relying on a single-income stream leaves you one corporate restructuring away from the ‘Income Cliff.’
What You Will Learn
[08:00] The 91% Paradox: Why elite professionals are “Income Rich” but “Structure Poor.”
[17:00] Kinetic vs. Static Wealth: Moving money from “Dead Equity” in your drywall into a self-funding machine.
[25:00] The Baby Boomer Exodus: How the skilled trades shortage and AI are shifting the Canadian economy.
[32:00] Money Velocity: Why money must stay in motion to create true fulfillment.
[41:00] The 5 Fs: Auditing your life for Faith, Family, Fitness, and Fun—not just Finance.

I got LASIK last week! This is wizardry, man. My prescription wasn’t even that strong, but it’s still really bizarre to see like this without glasses after literal decades. Recovery is so fast, too; realistically, I could’ve done a show the day after if I wanted to.
I can wear sunglasses now. I mean I always could, but I could always deal enough that I just didn’t bother getting prescription sunglasses. Now I can just get whatever. Probably not this pair though.
