  • Wow what a surprise two more dumb americans

    The fact that most Americans are too dumb to get the Hip. That’s just the way it is. The dichotomy of Americans if got it….they wouldn’t be as great.

  • Best Podcast for Hip Lovers

    Loving every episode of this podcast! Great idea to introduce two newbies to Canada’s greatest rock band (possibly the world’s), and Tim and Pete are on point. Be patient if you’re a hardcore hip fan - it takes the guys a while to warm up to our boys from Kingston, but once they do, the pod really takes off. Probably even going to the finale in Toronto on September 1st. Well done, jD. Great idea for a pod!

  • Too negative

    I think JD is great. I loved the Fully Completely podcast (look it up!). A great community has built up around that podcast on social media, too. This one, however, is really grating on me. I loved the concept and let myself continue along for a good chunk of the journey, but I just can’t hear about how bad all my favorite Hip songs are anymore. The album Fully Completely as a “naked cash grab?” About half the songs on Day for Night are a problem in one way or another? It’s just not the positive... more

  • New ears

    It’s great to hear these albums through new ears. The guys point out lyrics and structure I’ve never realized before and it’s slowing me to listen to these songs with new ears.

  • Yep this is good ay

    Love the concept!!!!!!! I’m popping my TH cherry too. About the same age at TL and always heard of them and would run into crazy fans in bars during th 80’-90’s expically being in the upper midwest (WI) but didn’t know much aboout them. Keep it up, I’m on board for the full hip to tragic ride.

    I told time this and thought I’d share my POV

  • Fine Wine

    I enjoyed the first 2 episodes. My only concern is the short time each “newbie” gets to explore each album. Albums can grow on you with each listen spread over time. I worry they may end up being more critical than they would be if they let it marinate.

  • Very interesting show!!

    I love the concept. It will be interested to see how the guys opinions/way they view the band will evolve over the Hips discography.

  • Fascinating Listen

    Such a great idea for Hip fans looking for analysis and a fresh perspective on Canada’s favourite band. JD makes a great host and the two “Hip-virgins” know music and seem to be up to the task of giving each album a fair listen. Judging by their fairly positive review of the EP, I can’t wait to listen as they discover all of The Hip’s unplucked gems.
