On the Saturday March 7, 2026 edition of The Richard Crouse Show we’ll meet hip-hop artist, motivational speaker, author, and community advocate D.O. Gibson. He set a Guinness World Record for the longest freestyle rap. It’s wild. 8 hours and 45 minutes in 2003 at a Toronto car show, he tours internationally, and has sold tens of thousands of CDs independently, hitting #1 on U.S. college hip-hop radio charts. He runs his own label and does youth-focused work like his “Stay Driven” school tours, illustrated children’s books (e.g., “The Story of How Young Duane Gibson”). He’s also been recognized as a Top Outstanding Black Canadian and received awards for his impact.
His latest single “Learned from the Greatest” is streaming everywhere, and the key tagline from his promo is: “I learned from the greatest — now it’s my turn to pass it on.” The song leans into themes of legacy, mentorship, influence, and paying it forward—fitting for an artist who’s been in the game for decades and now focuses on inspiring the next generation.
Then, we get to know writer, actor, and graphic designer Ann McDougall. Her book A Ghost in the Room – provides a very Canadian history of ghosts and the paranormal by combining intriguing stories from individual museums with her own personal research into how believers, practitioners, and charlatans alike all engage with the spirit world today. She made it her mission to explore as many supernatural activities as possible first-hand!
She researches Toronto’s Mackenzie House, the site of a well-documented ghost, the hoax that is nevertheless known to this day as “Canada’s most haunted house,” the first Canadian radio broadcast of a séance in 1936 and travels to a Niagara Falls Casino to see a celebrity TV medium who claims to speak to “the other side” live on stage among many other stories.
