The Nut Behind The Wheel(er)

Send us Fan Mail In this episode, Dave and Candace Rae take a deep dive into their personal driving histories, revealing the humorous and often surprising paths they took to get behind the wheel. The conversation kicks off with a lighthearted look at their fashion choices, from Dave’s thrifted suit jacket to Candace’s "superstore" find—a one-piece jumpsuit that sparks a funny debate about the logistical challenges of superhero-style outfits. The duo provides an update on their "Rae Within" project, a comprehensive 365-day mindset toolbox they have been laboring over for months. Candace describes it as an 80% audio experience complemented by visual yoga and breathwork challenges, designed to help users achieve consistent "1% wins" in their daily lives. The heart of the episode explores their contrasting experiences with vehicle ownership: Candace's Chauffeur Years : Candace opens up about why she didn't obtain her Manitoba driver's license until age 33. She recounts her years living in Bermuda, Malaysia, and Australia, where scooters and robust public transit made a car unnecessary. She also reflects on a "father complex" from her younger years, where she felt comforted and taken care of by boyfriends who were happy to drive her everywhere. Dave's "Jedi" Origins : Dave reminisces about growing up in Fort McMurray, where getting a license at 14 was a rite of passage. He fondly remembers his first car, a 1986 Jetta he nicknamed the "Jedi," and compares the freedom of his youth to the responsibilities of adulthood. The Shift to Safety : The couple discusses how parenthood fundamentally changed their relationship with vehicles. They describe the emotional moment of trading in Dave's beloved Genesis for a more practical Nissan Pathfinder to accommodate their growing family and their Great Dane, Vegas. The episode wraps up with Candace sharing the grueling details of her fitness competition prep. Now only 12 weeks out, she has ramped up to 14,000 steps a day and six days of high-intensity cardio, all while balancing her work on their new audio project.
