On our final episode, we celebrate the incredible journey of Kelly and Company and reflect on the moments that made it special. From the voices who’ve been with us since day one to the friends we’ve made along the way, it’s a proper throwback with the people who shaped the show.

Original co-host Sharon Caddy joins us to reminisce about the early days and how it all came together. Greg David, AMI’s Communications Specialist and our go-to TV guy, is here to reflect on years of great conversations. Paula Dineen, AMI’s Manager of Production and a constant behind-the-scenes supporter, gives us a glimpse into what’s ahead.

We also welcome John Melville, AMI’s Vice President of Content Development and Programming, who reflects on the show's legacy and the role it played in AMI's evolution.

Nisreen Abdel-Majid - DJ, fashionista, social media expert, and our amazing co-host for the past few months joins us to help wrap it all up. And of course, the old gang’s all here: Jeff Ryman, Matt Agnew, Ramya Amuthan, and Kelly MacDonald—the core four who brought this show to life week after week.

It’s a show full of memories, gratitude, and love. Join us one last time.

Summertime in Canada host some of the biggest concert series, if you are looking for something fun, arts and culture contributor Amy Amantea has the details.

They join us to salute KellyCo. And, from brown sugar obsessions to mushroom mains, we’re dishing out the top food trends heating up across Canada, with Culinary Expert Mary Mammoliti.

Leanne Baarda is our Independent Living Skills Specialist who joins us once a month. We’ve had years of conversations, covered everything from kitchen safety to cleaning out our garages, and today for our final chat on Kelly and Company, she’s here with an “Ask a Rehab Specialist” wrap-up, kind of like the FAQ of ILS. As we continue to reflect on good times from the show, we’ll hear from our very first fitness expert who spent years bringing us fun workouts, groovy music, and the love and passion of exercise, Chyvonne Emile Bray. Plus, Amanda Shekarchi sends us off into the summer with songs of the season.

There are so many endings in life that we often don't get to fully process, and leave us feeling lost with no way of expressing so. We explore endings with Psychotherapist Fern Lulham, fittingly on our last chat together. We visit with Downtown Dave Brown and not just to promote his new show Game Changers on AMI-Tv. Let’s celebrate the live show era in a special way. Plus, what does it take to be a successful traveler? Orientation and Mobility Specialist Mark Rankin explores the traits and techniques he’s come across over his career working with the blind and low vision community.

On today’s show, we take a stroll down memory lane with Kevin Philipupillai, the original producer of Kelly and Company, as he reflects on the show's early days back in 2017. From sports reporting to co-hosting and everything in between, Brock Richardson has been a big part of the Kelly and Company journey. We catch up with him one last time as he shares his final thoughts and favourite memories from the show. And for his last bow on Kelly and Company, Michael Feir has brought us one more helping of Podcasts which have impressed him enough to recommend to the audience. All of them are free and should provide hours of enjoyment.
