The lost art of just dropping in I Dave McIntyre in Ottawa, Ontario

"Home" can mean many things. And for Dave McIntyre, Home has always been Cape Breton. Even if he grew up in Ontario!

In today's episode, Sean and Dave talk about the impact of family history, family connections, and the ways that impacts our identity.

From his family ties in Glace Bay and summers spent on the banks of the Mira River, to the unplanned adventures and the storytelling spirit that defines the island, Dave shares how Cape Breton has shaped his sense of belonging, community, and joy.

He paints the picture of his perfect day back home — coffee overlooking the river, dropping in to visit family, a round of golf, and a night that ends with laughter, card games, and a couple of pints by the water.

Along the way, he reminds us that the real magic of Nova Scotia isn’t just in its scenery, but in our people — the characters, the conversations, and the kindness that always makes you feel like you’re home.
