episode #272 – Summer Break!

A day late, but definitely not a dollar short!  This last episode before our summer hiatus is jam-packed with myboytheriotgirl classics, sprinkled with a few new songs and a mingling of some tracks from underplayed albums from some of our favourite artists. What three-hour show would be complete without some New Pornographers, Sparklehorse, Spoon, Fiery […]

episode #271 – Mike’s undoing

This was meant to be your Victoria Day long weekend playlist, but in true V-day style, the long-weekend festivities spilled out from their three-day container and into real life.

episode #260 – ventricular, vainglorious valentine’s day

Love or hate the Hallmark holiday named after martyrs, it’s awfully hard to avoid the big V-day if you plan on leaving your cave on the 14th. In a mean-spirited (or well-intentioned) effort to draw out the pain (or pleasure) of the day, we’re getting to our two-hour collection of love(?) songs a week early […]

episode #252

Odds and ends; bits and bites; crunch ‘n munch. This week’s full of one-offs and left-behinds, and we’re happy to play them before we get to the more album-heavy end-of-year shows. It’s a Happy Thanksgiving for a lucky American listener because we have a random and brand new Jens Lekman song to throw her way, along […]
