Welcome to Cool Chats, podcast of Cool Choir - a group of non-auditioned adult rock and pop choirs in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
Cool Chats profiles the personal stories of some our choir members across the city and how singing in Cool Choir has impacted their lives.
This week on Cool Chats, Jamie sits down with the ever-energetic Cooper Holm — a man whose passion for life shines through in absolutely everything he does.
From sports and real estate to family, pets, music, and community, Cooper brings enthusiasm, positivity, and heart to every part of his world. As a successful Calgary realtor, helping people find their perfect “Holm” feels especially fitting… but beyond his career, Cooper has also become a much-loved member of the Cool Choir family thanks to his incredible voice and infectious spirit.
In this episode, we get to know the person behind the energy, explore what drives him, and share plenty of laughs along the way.
Please note: this episode was recorded outdoors, so there are moments where wind and environmental noise affect the audio quality slightly, including some occasional staggered speech. That said, the conversation remains clear, audible, and well worth the listen!

Episode 15 - Alan Quigley
After a long pause, Cool Chats is back—and what a way to return. In this episode, I sit down with Cool Choir Edgemont member Alan Quigley for a warm, honest, and often surprising conversation. We explore his journey, the role music plays in his life, and the stories that shape who he is beyond the choir. It’s a thoughtful, easy listen that feels like catching up with an old friend—exactly what Cool Chats was always meant to be.

Episode 14 - Dr Zabal
It’s September 2021 - and after a year of being unable to sing together in the same room, Cool Choir is preparing to return to our in-person rehearsals in a few days. But, unfortunately, with a wealth of information online for the general public to access regarding the health, safety and science of COVID-19, this comes with an equal level of misleading medical information too.
In Episode 14 of the Cool Chats podcast, Jamie has the opportunity to put some questions directly to an experienced general practitioner, Dr Zabal, about best practices for keeping ourselves as safe as possible while returning to enjoying activities, like singing, once again.
