Shaun Majumder is hosting a real estate podcast now?

That real estate podcast is making big changes

Good morning from the coulees — the wind's up, the sky's wide, and Lethbridge has something to say.

Look, there's always a lot moving through our city, but sometimes the big news is a bit further afield, yet still impacts us here. The Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA) put out some updates about their podcast, REAL TIME, and it’s something to notice, especially if you're in the housing market or just trying to understand it. They're bringing in Shaun Majumder, the comedian, as a new host for 2025. It’s a shift that tells you how much the industry is trying to connect with regular folks and not just agents.

They also dropped two recent episodes that matter. Episode 72, with Jeffrey Kerr, talks about making real estate more accessible for folks with mobility, visual, or auditory barriers. That's a big deal. For people trying to find a home here in Lethbridge, maybe in the Cottonwood or London Road areas, those considerations can be critical. And Episode 71, with Katie Hession, looked at how REALTORS® are using social media — which, look, is how a lot of people are finding their agents now. It really shows how much the housing world is changing, and we'll see how these national trends trickle down to our local market.
