Folks todays show is going to be off the chain. We have a full length interview with animator, illustrator and Columbo sommelier Gil Goletski, perhaps more affectionately known by their lovable stage persona shitlord fuckerman.

It's an hour of Gil doing their damnedest to derail the interview process while revealing creative insights into the mind of Vancouver's own lord of hydration. We talk comics, music, Flavourcel Animation Collective

and more! Also featuring music by Devours, Kimmortal, Greenteeth and Timing X.

To keep up with the episode here's a link to Gil's website where you can check out their work.

We're going to the heart of East Van!
