  • Airdrie Inside: Summer Sessions
    Jun 19 2026

    On June 6th, 2026, Chris Glass and Britton Ledingham hosted the first Airdrie Inside: The Summer Session at Rival Axe Throwing. We brought together seven of our city’s premier artists who represent the heart and soul of the place we call home.

    100% of the revenue from this evening went directly back to the artists on stage and the venue that hosted us.

    • Eden Taylor: 2025 Vocalist & Songwriter of the Year.
    • Kimwell & Grace del Rosario: Founders of Airdrie’s new strings program.
    • CELIN: The raw intensity of Airdrie’s soul.
    • Miles Canyon: The "Long Game" of Saskatchewan grit.
    • Christian Hudson: The Stampede champion who chose Airdrie.
    • Steve Jevne: The architect of the Airdrie sound.

  • Shamus Neeson: Arts Champion
    Jun 5 2026

    Welcome to Airdrie Inside. We are the city’s narrative infrastructure—the platform for the builders, weavers, and warriors who form the fabric of Airdrie.

    In this episode, host Chris Glass sits down with Shamus Neeson, a man of many hats and one singular heart. Shamus is a recruitment manager for Canadian Blood Services, a veteran radio personality, and a foundational member of the Airdrie Arts and Culture Council.

    The Strategy of the Signal Shamus discusses the "Apathy Gap" in blood donation, the City’s mandate for self-sufficiency, and why 100% of Canadians expect blood to be there when they need it, even though only 1.35% donate. But the conversation doesn't stop at the clinic. Shamus reveals how "Small Talk Leads to Big Opportunity," his journey from Saskatoon to becoming a fixture in Airdrie’s arts scene, and the secret behind the "Voice of God" in the music industry.

  • Dustin Horlacher: Carson and Friends
    May 29 2026

    In this episode of Airdrie Inside, Chris Glass sits down with Dustin Horlacher, founder of Carson and Friends. Five years ago, Dustin’s son Carson sent out birthday invitations and received zero RSVPs. What started as a frustrated post on "Airdrie Dads" transformed within hours into a community-wide movement. Today, Carson and Friends is moving the needle for Autism Calgary, hosting over 700 people and aiming for a Guinness World Record—all while providing a safe, "black and white" truth for families navigating the spectrum.

    "We were waiting for the RSVP date and like, absolutely nobody responded—not one single person. I vented on Airdrie Dads... next thing you know, I've got people like, 'Hey, I'll come over.' It spurred something that's now making a difference for hundreds of people." — Dustin Horlacher
