Seeing Bomber Fans Sad Makes Me So Happy

Seeing Bomber Fans Sad Makes Me So Happy

Leading into yesterdays Grey Cup I would have said the Winnipeg Blue Bombers had it hook, line, and sinker. They were facing a team without their starting quarterback. (A quarterback I may actually despise more than any Bomber btw. But I digress.). But, they choked. Hard! Leading up to half time it was like the […]

Celebrate “Exploding Whale Day”

It was 44 years ago that a 45 foot sperm whale washed up on the shores of Florence, Oregon. The locals were baffled as to what to do with the giant beast. Do they drag it back into the sea? Well, it’s likely to wash back up onto the beach again. Do they just leave […]
Too Soon For Christmas

Too Soon For Christmas

It just is. This is not one of those “respect the veterans and don’t decorate until after November 11th” posts either. Although, I do personally believe that. Can we just not do the Christmas thing yet? We just got done Halloween for God’s sake. Celebrating Christmas now is the same as putting up Halloween decorations […]

The Band Ghost Says Put Your Phones Away! No seriously. We’re Forcing You!

A rock show is an escape. A place to go to immerse yourself in the experience and forget about what’s happening out in the world. However, phones ruin that. It’s an umbilical cord to the problems outside the venue. You can’t escape work texts, stupid posts your Uncle puts on Facebook, and the urge to […]

Ty has called in Seanna of X Mornings to co-host the podcast with him this week as Mariah is still off on her honeymoon. Ty, Seanna, and Sam talk about getting big needles, bums, and also eat some pickled vegetables that were dropped off at the station for Seanna. Ty gets Seanna and Sam to play a game of “Are They A Weiner?” A very high brow podcast episode indeed.

I Love Yacht Rock And I Will Fight Anyone Who Criticizes It

“Yacht Rock” is defined as “a style of smooth, tuneful rock music popular especially in the US in the late 1970s and early 1980s.”. Just in case you didn’t know. Now that we’re all on the same page, let me make it very clear, I’m yacht rock for life. I envision a bunch of long haired folk […]
Cassette Tapes Sucked

Cassette Tapes Sucked

Oct 17, 2024 | 7:52am
There. I said it. Retro music lovers may sing their praises, but the cassette tape is garbage and always has been. It’s “Cassette Week 2024”. The cassettes response to Record Store Day I suppose. Your chance to head to select stores and buy limited edition cassettes from your favorite artists. But why? Cassette tapes had […]

“Saturday Night” is new in theatres this weekend and it looks amazing. The biopic follows the chaos surrounding the 90 minutes leading up to the first broadcast of “Saturday Night Live”. You’ll recognize a few faces, but the cast is relatively unknown, leaving a somewhat blank canvas to portray these massive personalities. The director, however […]
