  • Love it!

    Transports me back to university when my whole life revolved around this music. Love hearing specifics of that time (like places we went, shows we were at!). Very cool, very fun, and often makes me lol on my walks. Thanks Tyler!

  • Great overview of often unsung Canadian music

    Tyler Elynuik does a fine job of asking thoughtful questions, researching lesser known facts about the artists and their music, and showing a broader understanding of the Canadian music climate over the years. He also genuinely loves the music he’s discussing. This creates a strong rapport between interview and interviewee, which makes for easy listening as though you are eavesdropping dropping on a great conversation between musos at the bar.

    Mandatory listening if Tyler’s guest is even vaguely familiar to me. Long form, detail-heavy, easy-going, candid, and with enough laughs to keep things light.

  • Waltons and Jason Plumb

    I stumbled across this podcast, and I think it's great! I have been a long time fan of the Waltons and Jason Plumb. Your interview with him was interesting and insightful. I look forward to hearing the rest of the series. I'm sure I'll hear some old favorites and discover some new/old music.
