In this episode of the GetConnected Podcast, Mike Agerbo sits down with author Cam Gordon to explore the fascinating early history of music on the internet and how it transformed the Canadian music scene.

Cam’s new book “Track Changes: The Origin Story of Canadian Music on the Internet (1990–2010)” dives into the chaotic and exciting years when technology disrupted the music industry forever.

From Napster and file-sharing networks to the rise of digital downloads and online communities, we explore how artists, fans, and the industry adapted during one of the biggest technological shifts in music history.

If you grew up with MP3 players, LimeWire, Kazaa, CD burners, or early music blogs, this episode will take you right back to the digital frontier.

This week on GetConnected, Mike Agerbo is joined by tech analyst Carmi Levy to explore how OpenClaw is flipping the AI conversation from consumers to creators. Instead of relying on Big AI platforms, OpenClaw lets you build and run your own AI agents — locally, openly, and on your own terms.

From privacy and control to customization and cost, Mike and Carmi break down why the shift toward open-source AI tools could redefine who really owns the future of artificial intelligence. If you’ve ever wanted your own personal AI — not one controlled by a tech giant — this is the episode you don’t want to miss.

In this episode of GetConnected, Mike Agerbo sits down with eBay Live’s Karthik Rajendran to talk about the platform’s official launch in Canada and how livestream shopping is transforming online marketplaces.

We explore how eBay Live blends entertainment, community, and real-time commerce — giving collectors, resellers, and brands a new way to connect with buyers. Karthik breaks down what makes the experience different from traditional e-commerce, the opportunities for Canadian sellers, and why interactive shopping is one of the fastest-growing trends in retail.

Plus, how this move positions Canada in the global creator-driven economy and what it means for the future of buying and selling online.

On this episode of GetConnected, Mike Agerbo is joined by Vanessa Morbi from Fubo to break down how sports fans are changing the way they watch, the battle for premium rights, and what the future holds for cable, streaming bundles, and personalized viewing experiences. If you’re a sports fan, a cord-cutter, or just trying to keep up with the rapidly shifting TV landscape, this is a must-listen conversation.

On this episode of GetConnected, we explore the state of cloud computing, AI, and innovation in Canada, the role of technology in modern sports, and a powerful real-world example of how cloud tech is being used to fight wildfires.

We’re joined by Eric Gales, Managing Director of Amazon Web Services Canada, who shares insights on where cloud and AI adoption stands today and how Canadian organizations are using technology to innovate at scale.

Julie Souza, Global Head of Sports at AWS, discusses how cloud infrastructure and data are transforming sports — from performance analytics to fan engagement and broadcast innovation.

From national innovation strategy to life-saving applications, this episode highlights how cloud and AI are moving beyond theory into real-world impact.
