Michael Bublé just called out a sports commentator… and then his kids got dragged into it. That’s where I tap out.
In this episode of Unwritten Chapters, I break down the recent drama between Michael Bublé, Frank Cervelli, and the Vancouver Canucks — and why using someone’s kids as ammo in a sports take isn’t “just banter,” it’s a line you don’t cross. As a former army medic and paramedic turned author, I’ve seen what happens when people forget there’s a human being on the other side of the joke.
This isn’t a gossip recap. It’s a conversation about:
Why I side with Bublé on this one
How “hot takes” and sports media culture normalize cruelty
The difference between fair criticism and personal attack
What it feels like when you’re already carrying trauma and then watch adults go after a parent through their kids
If you’re a nurse, medic, frontline worker, partner of a veteran, in or around recovery, or just an exhausted, bookish soul who’s tired of mean-for-sport “entertainment,” this one’s for you. We talk boundaries, empathy, mental health, and why protecting kids should not be up for debate.
