Summary
In this episode I sit down with Rob Cairns to cover a wide range of topics, from his childhood experiences to his professional career and personal life. We start by exploring Rob’s upbringing, particularly the cultural shifts he experienced moving from Quebec to Ontario during the separatist movement. We also dive into Rob’s education, his high school activities, and his early interest in programming and the internet.
As we talk, Rob shares stories about his parents, including his father’s insurance business and the story of how his parents met. The conversation naturally shifts to Rob’s personal life, where he talks about meeting his partner on Facebook and their unique living arrangements. I’m also curious about Rob’s relationship with his son, and we discuss that as well.
We touch on Rob’s passion for sports, his preference for non-fiction and historical books, and his fascination with historical “what-ifs.” As the interview comes to a close, I ask Rob for recommendations on future podcast guests, and we share a light-hearted moment. I wrap up the episode by thanking Rob for his openness and candid responses, acknowledging that while some of the questions might have been uncomfortable, they were necessary for a meaningful conversation.
