  • The more I learn the more I love

    This has been my favourite podcast for a while. I find the more I learn about these songs the more I love listening to them afterwards. Some songs that I thought were ok now pop when they come on as the context rushes in with the lyrics. Thanks for this.

  • Could be so much better

    I love Propagandhi and would love 1 hour long podcasts on each or their songs. Some episodes are 4 hours long? Some episodes are labelled as part 2 but then you have to search for part 1 which could be 9 months earlier. It’s just all over the place. Also, I get that the people who create the pod can do whatever they want with this, but when I feel like they are just talking about themselves more than Propaghandi, I just give up and turn it off.

  • Best podcast I’ve ever found

    These guys and I followed each other on a different platform after I relentlessly posted Showdown and other propagandhi songs since a certain event on Feb. 24. Propagandhi has been formative in my worldview and this is a terrific podcast!!! Well done!!!

Dear Coach's Corner w/The Punk Cellist (Ian Legge)
Q: How did the collaboration with Emily Plamondon come about?

A Conversation with Christina Johns
Q: I am delighted that you're here. Just spend a moment and introduce yourself to the listeners of the podcast and Propagandhi fans out there. Who are you and what do you do?

Q: How did your relationship with John develop and what was the process behind Lay It Down?
Luke details reaching out in 2024 after reconnecting through a friend, spending long conversations with John, visiting Winnipeg, and ultimately shaping a piece that centers on his decision to step back from making music and the broader questions about professional pressures, community, and abolitionist values.
