Casual with Ryan Proctor
I live in Whistler, BC. I started this podcast with no agenda. I like to talk to people, I like to laugh, I like to not take things too seriously and I am trying to become a better listener. These conversations are casual. If you dig it, a LIKE or a SHARE would be sweet.

Casual with Ryan Proctor (The Astrology Episode) featuring Kenzie McGowan #60
Tuesday Feb 27, 2024
Tuesday Feb 27, 2024
Episode #60 with Kenzie McGowan. Kenzie is long-time friend of mine and is one of the most positive and friendly humans out there. Kenzie joins me in the kitchen studio to chat about Astrology.
I sent Kenzie my birth info and we review my charts while talking about the origins of Astrology, horoscopes, how star signs relate and how to read your charts. It was wild to hear what my charts reveal and how it relates to life. We talk about free will, choices, luck and a bunch of other cool stuff. At the end Kenzie does a quick 3 card tarot reading. Yikes. I ask about my life span, finding true love and I think something about finances.
Sounds like I need to focus on a few things.
It was great to catch up and chat!
Thanks for stopping by, Kenzie!
And, as always, thank you to the watchers and the listeners!

The Catching Up Over Pickles and Bubly EP with Adam Levitt #55. My good friend Adam stops by to catch up. He is one of the Casual OG guests and a good hang. We catch up on life since no longer being housemates. We talk about Whistler and some of the dumb things going in this town (Big Bus Stop and Big Washroom Money), the terms Yeet, Simp and Ship (words being used by the kids these days), a few movie reviews, concerts we've been to, some crazy shit going in the world in general, food, and he brings me homemade dill pickles. They are dope picks.
Thanks for stopping by Adam! Great hang.

Casual with Ryan Proctor featuring Dr. Teresa Wood #53
Monday Mar 06, 2023
Monday Mar 06, 2023
Dr. Teresa Wood MD. BA. (Sexual Medicine Doctor and Sex & Intimacy Coach) joins me for EP #53.
Dr. Teresa has been working with youth, adults and seniors around issues of sex, intimacy, sexuality, and gender for over 2 decades. She has taught workshops all over Canada and the US which are designed to help increase awareness about needs, desires, bodies, feelings, thoughts, hang-ups, fear, frustration, ecstasy, emotion, spirituality, sensitivities, and sexiliciousness of a topic she finds far from taboo: SEX (I copied and pasted this from Teresa's site 🤫)
I wasn't sure how this chat would go at first. My own shyness around these topics quickly vanished as the conversation went on. Teresa has a way of breaking through with an obviously well informed and professional way of talking while making sure to keep it light hearted and honest. This was another one of my favourite podcasts.
Thank you for taking the time, Teresa! Can't wait to have you on the show again!
As always thanks to those who dig what I'm doing.

Casual with Ryan Proctor #52 with Dave Petko
Tuesday Feb 28, 2023
Tuesday Feb 28, 2023
Dave Petko joins me for EP #52. Dave is a long time Whistler local (nearly 30 yrs) who owns Black Ohm Tattoo shop down in Function Junction, the OG tattoo shop in town. He is as well known for his art as he is for his tattoos. We talk about how he ended up in Whistler and how he came to be the owner of Blackcomb Tattoos. He's showcased his art all over Whistler, with showings at almost every festival Whistler has had since he arrived, as well as in Vancouver. We talk about his inspiration, the evolution of his art and ink work, early Van life, his time at Toad Hall Studio way back, and bunch of Whistler History. Dave is one of the friendliest guys around and I think we just cracked the surface of his history and stories he has to tell. I hope there will be a next time.
This is one of my favourite podcasts to date.
Thank you for stopping by, Dave!
And thank you all for watching/listening if you do. If not, thats cool too.
