This week I was joined in the studio by long time friends, The Brass Action. These boys have been hitting the Vancouver music scene for over a decade now, moving dance floors & keeping the unifying sounds of ska and punk strong in our city. This coming weekend they are unleashing their 3rd full length album, "Brouhaha" at the Railway club with a stacked line up that is guaranteed to get you skanking up a storm! I had the pleasure of sitting down and chatting with Ryan & Rich about the bands longevity, the new album and what other goodies fans can expect from these brass punks in the future.

Greetins Cretins, This week I had the pleasure of being joined in the studio by Johnny Forgotten & "Glue Huffer" Glenn Larson (With The News) of The ElectroJets! These fine fellows have been stready pumping out Ramones inspired punk rock tunes for a few years now. I sat down with Johnny & Glenn to chat about the band, hear some hilarious stories, learned about their bands various "ghosts" and we got a chance to hear some brand new tracks off of their upcoming full length album; being released this spring on Out Loud Records!

Greetins Cretins, This week I was joined by my friend Deena Zee in the studio. If you've never met Deena, but you're into punk rock in the lower mainland, I guarantee you've seen her. Front & Centre, Flat brim hat, dancing her little heart out to some of the best bands that our city has to offer. Deena's a staple of the vancouver punk rock community. She has an enigmatic energy and effortlessly brings joy to those around her. If you've ever been at a gig and found yourself thinking, "Man, this band is great, I wish someone would get the pit going", then either Deena isn't at that show, or she simply hasn't shown up yet! From the opening act to the final oncore, you can count on Deena to be there; giving back as much energy as the bands are putting out. So this week, I invited Deena to come up and share a bit of her story of how she found punk rock, and to share exactly what it is that has kept her skanking, thrashing, dancing and moshing for the past 26 years. She brought up a serious collection of some of her favorite records and we gave 'em a spin, all while learning a little more about one of the city's most unifying souls. So, the next time you're at a show, and you see that girl up at the front, dancing her heart out. Go up and say hello, you'll be glad you did. And, if you don't see her, and your standing there with your arms crossed, wishing that people would put down their beers and get the fucking pit moving. Take a page from Deena's book, and be the spark that sets the pit of fire! Keep Creepin' - Jonny Bones

Greetings Ghouls,
This week I was joined up at the station by Mike from Kownterpoint & S.K.A. for the release of the Pacific Sounsystem Vol. III compilation. If you haven't heard about Pacific Soundsytem by now, you've been doing yourself a disservice. A mad compilation of soo many bands, both local and international from all up and down the west coast, all currently active and every one of them extremely awesome. Do yourself a favor and head to the bandcamp page right now and download yourself a copy, since it's officially available RIGHT NOW!
If you like what you hear on this new comp, then I suggest you head down to the Railway Club tomorrow night to get a solid taste of this compilations line up. For the low-low price of only $10 you can get yourself in to see the BRASS ACTION, the enigmatic BREHDREN, the lovely BOBBI-JO MOORE and this week's guest KOWNTERPOINT! What more could you ask out of a Friday night?
We also gave you the run down on everything that's happening this weekend, so no excuse to just sit around, GO OUT AND SEE A SHOW!
Untill next time...

They've got a brand spanking new album entitled, NIGHT DANGER, that's ready to be unleashed Saturday, Feb 9th at the Wise Hall!

What's better than one? TWO! That's right kiddies, this week i was joined by not one, but TWO rad bands up in the studio to promote the amazing TWOSOME FEST that's happening down at Astoria on Sat, Feb 2nd. That's a ton of two peice bands, playing a ton of songs, on the second day of the second month of the year! Add to it the fact that each band has put two songs on a brand new 12" that you can pick up at the show for the included cost of your ticket and that's what I call too good of a deal to pass up!
Big thanks to Kyle & Justin from Pedler for masterminding this whole thing, as well as Geoff & Ryan from Aanthems for coming up to the station and killing 2 hours with me, spinning some rad tunes and making me want to go home a watch my old vhs copy of Jacob Two-Two and the Hooded Fang!
Do yourself a favor, go to this show, support these bands, buy the album, get the T-shirt, this is gonna' be one hell of an awesome night!

Greeting Ghouls,
Not a lot a talk, just a shit ton of Punk Rock this week as we spun you a tremendous taste of all the amazing bands you can experience this year at the 21st annual Punk Rock Bowling & Music Festival happening May 24th-27th in Sin City itself, LAS VEGAS!
If you've never made the trip down to the desert to experience this last bastion of pure punk rock, I highly suggest you save up your pennies and turn in all your tin cans for their deposits and buy youself a ticket, as this years line up in absolutely stacked! If you're looking for the best bang for your concert going buck, you can NOT do any better than this 3 day festival.
We spun tunes for 2 hours straight and we still couldn't fit in songs from every band playing the main festival. Add that in with all the free pool party shows and various club shows happening across old vegas and you've got yourself a bonafide recipe for rad!
Tune in next week when we'll have more tunes, some local happenings to chat about and other various odds and sods that we manage to come up with. Until next week...

Howdy Hooligans,
This was the last show for the year, so I piled up my records and played you some of my favorite cuts to come out this year, both locally and abroad. Big thanks to Russian Tim for being a fucking music machine, as I pilfered some of his curated content for some of the finer tunes coming out of our fair city this year. We also let you know about everything you can go experience in and around the lower mainland this weekend should you be so inclined to head out of the house.
Until next time, see you all in 2019!

Holy hell what a night! Three, that's right count 'em, three different bands all crammed into one episode. From talking dicks in all forms with Beaverette in the first hour, to chatting about the "Swing and a miss Two'er" five-band, double show extravaganza with some of the boys from REDS and The Corps, this episode had it all.... oh yeah, somewhere in there we managed to play a ton of pretty rad punk rock!

Greeting Ghouls, This week I was joined in the studio by Scott & Ian, 22.3% of the local Vancouver Ska band, BREHDREN. They have been tirelessly working on their new EP entitled "The Classifieds" which gets released this Saturday, June 2nd at the Railway Club. I sat down with the boys and we talked about whats new with the band, spun all of the tracks of the new EP (Including the much anticipated "Space Case III") and laughed an absurd amount about their ridiculously awesome, seemingly endless amount of meta-marketing content that they have created. From a fictional newspaper (Which includes a real functional crossword) to fake movie posters, bobble heads and more. The minds of these two skanksters are always a pleasure to enjoy, but enough of me... on with the show!

Greetin's Cretin's, This week I was joined by my dear friends, The Staggers & Jaggs. They've been coming up the the station to spread their infectious fusion of blues, folk, punk and trash with my fine listening audience since the bands inception and every time they come and play live they simply blow me away. The group has been hard at work over past year, crafting their newest effort "Garbage Party", which will be unleashed upon the unsuspecting public next week: Thurs, May 17th to be exact, down at the Fox Cabaret. We spun some tasty tracks, and had the pleasure to be, once again, serenaded live in the studio by these masterful musicians. Trust me kiddies, if you're NOT at the Fox Cabaret next week, you're fucking up.... bad...

Howdy Hooligans,
This week I was joined in the studio by non other than the one and only Colin Pearson (singluar, like the highlander.... he's the only one) of Vancouver's kings of 90's reference driven punk rock, YOU BIG IDIOT! They've finally completed the epic meal of an album entitled "Mega Donair" which consists of 12 tastey tracks for you to sink your teeth into. The album actually just actually release to world as I type this at 12am on April 20th, 2018.... so you can listen to this podcast, but I highly suggest you quickly go to your music providing platform of choice and give this album a quick download, you will not be dissapointed!
Make sure you get your asses off the couch and head down to SBC next friday, April 27th for one hell of a stacked album release bill, including: ATD, The Greatest Sons, Russian Tim and Pavel Bures, The Penskie File & of course YOU BIG IDIOT! That's a whole lot of value for only $15, the same type of value you might also find in say.... a Mega Donair?

Greetings Ghouls, This week I was joined in the studio by none other than my old co-host and Rad Radio founder, Jay W. Raymond! We spun some sweet punk rock, got a call in from our dear friend (Not So) Fat Dan & chatted with Stryker from Cost Longboarding to get the latest news about the 17th annual Attack on Danger Bay Longboard Weekend! Packed to the brim with more boards, bands & brews than you can shake a drop carve at, this longboard competition/music festival is not for the weary. 3 Days of beer fueled mayhem on BC's beautiful sunshine coast; as a past participant in the debauchery I can vouch, its unlike any other weekend experience you can have. Stryker also filled us in with latest updates about his new brain child: THE CHURCH OF SKATIN! A longboarders paradise nestled in Canada's scenic east coast, taken root in an abandoned church turned hostel perched on top of some of the sickest runs that Canada has to offer!

Now they have finally combined forces to bring us 4 stacked shows, one per month, at the infamous Pub 340 & I couldn't be more stoked on how these events are looking to shape up. Throw in some honourable mentions to gigs this coming weekend and kick the whole thing off with new music and show announcements from The Dreadnoughts and you've got yourself an episode!

This week I was joined in the studio by Rob Nuclear, of the AK-747's. We spun some tracks off their new album "Night Party" and I attempted to keep up with Rob as he cut through the shit and gave us his unbridled, completely uncensored and spontaneous thoughts on every subject under the sun, from Corrupt politicians to the rising fascist movement known as the "Alt-Right", This episode is not for the meek and it is unapologetic. Regardless of if I agree with all of Rob's views or not, I respect anyone who is steadfast in their beliefs & has the knowledge to at back up those beliefs with fact. Tune in kiddies, this week was an interesting one.
This was also our very first live stream, you can watch the whole episode on our Facebook page, and hear our off air conversations as well. Might start doing that a bit more moving forward. We'll see....
