The Tom Storey Show
Hosted by Royal Le
Two veteran Canadian real estate agents, one in Toronto and one in Vancouver, dissect the week's market news with fellow industry pros.
This is a weekly check-in on the Canadian real estate trenches from two agents on opposite sides of the country. Part market analysis, part industry gripe session, the show brings on other agents as guests to compare notes on seller psychology, pricing tactics, and the on-the-ground reality versus media headlines. The hosts' bicoastal perspectives—Tom in Toronto and Steve in Vancouver—provide a constant, real-time comparison of Canada's two most-watched housing markets.
“The bicoastal format is its key differentiator, providing a running comparison between the Toronto and Vancouver markets. Unlike many real estate shows, it focuses on the candid, peer-to-peer conversations between active agents rather than a single expert's monologue.”

What you'll be asked on this show
Tom and Steve's interviews are collaborative 'compare and contrast' sessions, not formal Q&As. They typically open by asking for the guest's general read on the current market in their area. They then frame questions around their own recent business experiences ("Are you also seeing...?") to prompt the guest to share parallel stories and data. The conversation flows like a peer-to-peer debrief, with all three participants sharing anecdotes, frustrations, and interpretations of market stats.
A mix of two-host conversations and interviews with fellow agents, the show has an informal, collegial tone, like a shop-talk session between peers. Episodes often open with a teaser montage of key moments before the main intro sequence. The hosts use their own recent business experiences to frame the discussion.
