Seismologist Taimi Mulder talks Island Earthquakes & Ed Willes on Canucks

(06:10) The Pulse Podcast with Peter McCully & Dave Graham features earthquake seismologist Taimi Mulder, who discusses seismic activity around Vancouver Island and addresses common misconceptions about earthquakes. She explains the region’s unique geological position on the Juan de Fuca plate system and discusses the potential for a major earthquake, known as “the big one.” Mulder also shares interesting anecdotes, including a humorous story about “love waves” detected by a seismometer in Port Alberni and a curling partner named “Scully”.

(27:21) Ed Willes, a former sports columnist for the Province newspaper, discusses his book “Never Boring: The Up and Down History of the Vancouver Canucks.” Willes shares behind-the-scenes stories about the team’s history, including missed opportunities like nearly signing Wayne Gretzky, the impact of Pat Quinn’s leadership, and the evolution of the Sedin twins. He also discusses the passionate Vancouver fan base and the team’s various management decisions over the years that have shaped its destiny.
