Three Things from Edmonton sends you into the weekend with a bite-sized bit of gratitude, delivered by Glenn Kubish.
The concept is simple: "Every Friday I collect three things from the week gone by that made me happy," he writes. "Big things, small things. They add up."
Kubish is the director of story and brand for the City of Edmonton, and he had a career in journalism before he went into communications, so he knows how to get his observations across. The content and tone of this personal project will be familiar if you follow him on Twitter. He bikes a lot, he thinks deep thoughts, and he likes to make connections.
He also keeps it tight. The episodes tend to be about five minutes long, but they're packed with sonic texture. Episode 5 weaves in a clip of Masai Ujiri and a reading from Wendell Berry, and Episode 6 features his wife's laugh and audio from a recent bicycle commute. No filler, just pure delight.
