ABOUT US

CREATE – The Podcast is a Calgary-based show hosted by Mark Kondrat, Co-Founder of Alberta Beer Festivals. The podcast provides a platform to share the stories of the creators in our community: entrepreneurs, makers, and builders who are shaping culture in Calgary and beyond.

Originally rooted in the craft beverage world, the podcast has since expanded to showcase voices from breweries, restaurants, artists, musicians, and leaders across industries. Whether it’s the grit it takes to build a business, the creativity that fuels a new idea, or the community that rallies behind it all, CREATE dives into both the challenges and triumphs that define the journey.

At its heart, CREATE is about inspiration — celebrating people who turn vision into reality and giving listeners a behind-the-scenes look at how passion becomes possibility.
