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 […]

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 […]

Twenty-eleven seems to have been a really, really good year for independent music. In programming these three best of 2011 shows, it became apparent that it would be more difficult than ever before to pick out those few albums that stood head and shoulders above the rest of the pack. So this week we look […]

Besides celebrating our 250th podcast of myboytheriotgirl, tonight’s episode also marks the beginning of the ninth season of the show on 93.3FM. That’s right, almost exactly eight years ago I first went on the air here at CFMU, pulling from the new releases shelf with abandon and spinning a mix of independent “love songs and […]

We’re taking a quick break this week, so we go to the archives for almost exactly five years back and get a show chock full of favourites. After a dreamy opening with Mum and Boards of Canada, we hear selections from 2006 discs from The Dears, The Decemberists, and Junior Boys, among others. Plus some […]
