Blink-155

♥

It's the third week of Green May and we're oh so tired... why don't we talk about the most annoying Green Day song of all time? Well, luckily we also get to talk to Chayne Japal about our new life as DJs. 

Green May week two, we're talking about "Father of All...." what do you think comes after the ellipses??? We're joined by our dearest friend and goodest sport Zachary Lipez.  Sign up for Zach's newsletter Abundant Living: https://zacharylipez.ghost.io/  

It's Green May! A full month all about Green Day! This week we're joined by John Cullen of Blocked Party, the P.O.D. Kast, the worlds of stand-up comedy and curling, and most importantly, a fellow bevvy boy.  Give us money: patreon.com/155pod   

It's the final month of April Lavigne (or is it April La Green???) and we're joined by our bud Joey Coleman, who also has a show called the 155 Podcast as well as a world of knowledge about journalism, Ontario politics and the Greenbelt. Support Joey at thepublicrecord.ca and joeycoleman.ca. Support us at patreon.com/155pod.

It's the month of April Lavigne... or should we say April La Green? That's right, we're still talking about the princess of pop-punk and also the environmental efforts to preserve Canada's Greenbelt. This week's guest is Marit Stiles, who is the leader of Ontario's NDP and possibly our first ever politician on the pod. Marit shows up around 1:55:20. But you should listen to the whole thing. Georgia is also back with another look at Avril's love life.

Week two of April Lavigne... or should we say April La Green? (We are talking about environmental issues as they pertain to the Greenbelt thru a lens of Avril Lavigne because of something that happened at the Junos a month ago. Do you understand?) This week we're joined by Charlie Pinkerton from The Trillium. Charlie shows up around 1:47:40.

It's the return of April Lavigne... or should we say April La Green? That's right, this week we're joined by Ever — the wonderful activist who interrupted Avril at the Junos to draw attention to the need for urgent climate action, and the need to preserve the Greenbelt.  Ever shows up around 2:15:23. Learn more at on2ottawa.ca The episode is also full of a lot of very stupid, very trivial stuff, as usual.  

It was Sam's Month in the Year of Our Lord 2023. We talked about Sam's songs. We ate Sam's eggs. And now Sam's Month comes to an end.  But first, an episode about Bomb the Music Industry! featuring Sam's friend and former bandmate Eric Solomon, from O Pioneers!!! and Night Owls merch company. Follow Night Owls https://twitter.com/nightowlsprint Give us money patreon.com/155pod

Sam's second choice for Sam's Month is a "Stuck Between Stations" by the Hold Steady. I think it was a trap to make everyone mad at me for the things I say on here. We're also joined by KW of Vile Creature, who loves the song and band!

We are on the third week of Gobruary, our month-long discussion of the band Gob. This week we're joined once again by Tom Thacker as we discuss the sleeper hit "Beauville." We also seem to both have a gas leak in our homes at the same time, or something. I'm not sure. 

It's week 2 of Gobruary, and Gob's Tom Thacker is back to discuss the band's skate culture-referencing earworm "Ming Tran."  Do you want to submit a cover of the next Gob song? You can only do so if you sign up for Patreon at http://www.patreon.com/155pod. See ya there!

Look at the calendar — it's Gobruary! Yes, we're talking about Gob for an entire month.

It's the second week of xDryxJanuaryx and we decided to talk around the subject of Youth of Today. We're joined by 3/5ths of Bloomington youth crew band Full Stride, 1/3 of which is straight edge. Listen to Full Stride here: https://fullstride.bandcamp.com Listen to It's a Beautiful Day in the Gulch: https://gulchpod.libsyn.com/  

It's xDryxJanuaryx so we're talking about straight edge culture. And while Bane wasn't explicitly a straight edge band, they sure did care about friends stabbing each other in the back. In fact, it was their Nam. For this episode we are joined by Erik and Seamus.
