Broadcast Date – July 29, 2026
Our chats will be just that very conversational, not entirely sensible and with any luck totally enjoyable. As a matter of fact, joyful is the perfect word to describe today’s guest. Both in her outlook on life and her impact on others. These days that includes the cast and crew of the brand new series in which she stars, called THINGS LIKE THESE. Created and written by Nikki Martin, THINGS LIKE THESE is a “messy comedy about uncomfortable truths, and revolves around the James Family, the human experience in all its contradiction and chaos.” So you best believe we’ll be talking about that major achievement and so much more, including her guest starring roles in everything from CTV’s smash SULLIVAN’S CROSSING and Prime TV’s WE WERE LIARS, to her time sensitive turn in CHRISTMAS ISLAND for the Hallmark Channel. We’ll even get the scoop on how a surprise late-night call landed her front and centre on Brooke Shields‘ new series YOU’RE KILLING ME and find out how her home crew wound up competing on FAMILY FEUD. Plus we’ll get to 1st Things First, play a truly enlightening round of INsights IN 10 and even spin some of her favourite tunes along the way. So with all that ahead, we best get to it – here’s my telephone conversation with the one and only Martina Kelades. (You’ll find the player at the bottom of this post.)
