Get ready to laugh and rock out with Lisa Baker, a stand-up comedian hailing from Newfoundland, who now livens up stages in Alberta. Lisa and I, your host, kick things off with a nostalgic journey exploring her diverse playlist. We embark on a trip down memory lane, relishing the good old days of Kenny Rogers, Dolly Parton, and Metallica while discussing the profound influence these artists had on Lisa's playlists. We also unearth the comforting nostalgia 'Sunny's Dream' by Ron Heinz brings to her, underscoring the power of music to transport us back in time.Buckle up as Lisa and I navigate through the twist and turns of the modern-day definition of a gentleman and love in the era of dick pics, or the lack thereof, in Annette's case. This hilarious conversation paves the way for a more profound dialogue about the importance of division of labor in relationships, shedding light on Lisa's admiration for her husband. From here, we make a detour to discuss the controversy surrounding Lizzo and the double standards rampant in the music industry. Lisa and I emphasize the need for inclusive, honest conversations and respect for boundaries, as a catalyst for meaningful discourse.As we cruise towards the end of our journey, we face head-on the challenges Lisa encounters as a female comedian and the struggles women face in the music industry. We focus the spotlight on the heartbreaking story of Britney Spears and the systemic sexism women have to fight against. Despite these challenges, we also acknowledge the triumphant moments and the women who paved their way with anthems like 'Man! I Feel Like a Woman by Shania Twain.

1:[6:16] Oh, yeah, or if not dig the shit out of them Yeah, and it's a riot to play it is so much fun to play the music it's lots of energy and I have an absolute riot playing it It looks like it fromthe videos i've seen I didn't know that many songs until I joined this band. I only knew a couple, like New Orleans is Sinking or probably Little Bones, but then these guys got me into them. Now that's all I hear. Oh, wow. So I love them so much and that's all I hear. it now. And I used to play like a really like you name it from from Metallica down to Bird Jam to Foo Fighters and now my favorite is Tragically Here. So yeah it's uh it's interesting when we play a show that uh, the fun part for me is not only playing the show and the people are into it like everybody you know that everybody's coming tosee the show knows the songs see they're going going to be singing. But after the show, the number of people that come up and want to tell you about the time they saw the hip or they have a story about when they met one of the members of the hip. So people just reconnect at our shows, which is a fun part for me. Track 4:[7:37] Sure, that's amazing. Track 2:[7:38] Yeah, it's like a community, right? Track 1:[7:40] Oh, absolutely, yeah. Track 3:[7:43] Yeah, and I mean, I gotta say, I've seen, obviously, not anything hip related, but like, for example, I remember seeing a Zeppelin tribute band that was really good, that I just kind oflike, I mean, I'm a diehard Zeppelin fan, like, you know, all eight studio records just flow through my veins and seeing that show was like, you know, I was like, OK, it's cool. And then Iwas just so wildly impressed. Like, I'm not the guy because I play, you know, you play, you play a gig, kind of like put your guitar, put your instruments away, go to the bar, have a beer, check out for the night,especially if it's a long show and you're tired. But like I was like, I got to go tell these people how fucking great they sounded and And how during this tune, the communication breakdown, he hit the solo perfect. That's so cool that you have people that... Because it's a testament to you guys being fucking really good at your craft and knowing how to play to the crowd. I can't wait to see you guys. Track 1:[8:56] Thank you, Lola. Yeah, we have a blast. The Complexity of Learning Songs on Instruments[9:00] Yeah, so these guys always mention, you know, when we're learning a song, they've got a a lot harder than I do, but a lot of folks who either don't play instruments or folks whoaren't hip fans that are playing instruments say, oh yeah, those songs are easy. But I'm sure these guys can tell you that they're not easy. There's all kinds of stuff going on. No way. Yeah, you've gotta really hit it to get the nuance of the song and the notes, but I don't know if you guys have examples, but. Two guitar parts are so very complementary to each other. There's really no rhythm or lead. There's just two guitars. And without one, the other just doesn't sound right. You have to have those two parts like the record, and then it gives you that sound. Yeah. So we're very picky about the sound. We use the right instruments. We try and use the right equipment wherever we can and re-crease that sound, like the record, as close as we can, right? Track 3:[10:05] Yep. The general rule with music, too, is if it sounds really hard, chances are it's not, and if it sounds really easy, chances are it's not, right? Track 1:[10:16] Isn't that the case? That is right. As I was saying, I used to play what I thought they were the hardest song to play, like the Foo Fighters, to name a few. But then I thought, okay, this doesn't sound difficult. man, I was wrong. It is difficult, it is, because it's just, we need to connect, like, you know, we need to be in sync to actually make it sound right, which is very interesting, and I love doing that. And theseguys are awesome. Yeah for that band, that's it Yeah, we're very lucky that everybody has the same ambition to make it sound like that. You know when everybody's in the groove it the music becomes a Uh part of the vocals everything. Yeah, it's one. It's a rare commodity Yeah, yes And we're lucky to look it lucky to have a guy that's on ligar like it's just It's just amazing. The Importance of Syncing and Connecting as a Band[11:07] Sometimes it's just man. It's just something great. It's I mean musically we are there and we have a good rhythm and we you know, we understand each other But what make a sound right is this guy here, right? This is something greatHopefully you'd like it, too I'm sure we will. [11:26] We won't even talk about bass because Based on some of the bass runs and and stuff is pretty crazy to me. Yeah, it's tough. [11:37] I think he was a guitar player actually, so he actually learned to play the bass as we came along. Yeah, I didn't even know the bass, so these guys called me, so I went to the music store and bought a bass and showed up and then started. It's been pretty good. Lots to learn. It's been a lot of fun, but I think it's just having five individuals, like being in a band like this is amazing because it's tough. I've played with lots of different musicians, but to have people that connect very tight like this, that is very, very hard to find. And playing bass in this band has probably been the best band I've ever been in. I've always played guitar, but playing the bass and getting that part and playing with these guys is actuallyamazing. So it's been pretty good, pretty good run so far. [12:33] That's cool, man. And a second instrument is always awesome anyway. You can't go wrong learning. I learned, oh, maybe 20 years ago, I picked up the fiddle and started playing fiddle. Oh, I became a fiddle player for about eight years. And then I got back into guitar and then that stopped. And then maybe about four years ago, I bought a banjo and oh my goodness, I was two years of banjo, banjo, banjo. And you learn, you pick up something from everything I've learned. I've picked up something that adds to the guitar tons. Totally, totally, totally. Appreciating the Skill of Great MusiciansTrack 3:[13:10] When we listen to, well, cause we interviewed Gord Sinclair, it was about a month and a half ago, something like that, maybe two months ago. And I had done this before, but I did it more so after we interviewed him. If you watch like a video that they're, a live video that they're playing, right? And watch it five times. Watch it five times. And each five times, once you focus on Johnny Fay, another time you focus on Gord Downie, another time you focus on Rob Baker, youknow, and so on and so forth. And you can just, if you just focus on them and their instrument, you realize how fucking, excuse my language, I'm dropping a lot of F-bombs, but how well they are at playing theirinstruments. Instruments, what good musicians they are. And to sound even remotely remotely close to them is not an easy task. It's not even close. Track 1:[14:09] Yeah, and as they've, you know, grown over the years, they've just gotten better, right? You just get better at your craft. So when you go and learn the newer albums or songs offthose it's even tougher. Track 3:[14:22] Yeah, I bet. Track 1:[14:23] But it's even more rewarding when we get together and sometimes, you know, we play the tune for the very first time and go, okay, we're going to learn this tune, we go away anddo our parts, we come back and we play it and we're all kind of blown away at how good it sounds sometimes the first time. You learn that part and they melt together so beautifully for that finished product that it's really rewarding. Mind-Blowing Live Transitions in MusicTrack 4:[14:53] Yeah, we were just listening. Yeah, we were just the guys and I were just listening to a live version of New Orleans is sinking where they transition in and out of nautical disasterand back into New Orleans is sinking. Have you guys tried anything like that as a band together? Because that that I mean, that just blew our minds, you know? Track 1:[15:12] Yeah, that's an interesting combination, isn't it? Yeah, we, uh, we do have a killer whale tank version on the, on the schedule eventually to, uh, to learn, uh, but, uh, yeah, we haven'tgot around to it. Uh, that's a big one. Shit. But yeah, yeah, I guess our focus has been so far just to try to, you know, owner what they recorded, so keep it as close as, as you know, the original And that's how I've been a focus sofar, you know. [15:46] It may migrate to, you know, do experiments, something like that. But so far, we're trying to actually, you know, honor that original record, original sound. And, you know, but sort of in a live version. So, yeah, as Ron was saying, it's so rewarding when you, you know, work hard on getting that song together and it, you know, it soundedactually very close, in our opinion, anyway. Yeah, we really try to bring the music and the live show to the stage, but not be the Tragical yet. We don't want to look like them or copy them. We want to bring their music to people. So all of the music. That's good. Track 2:[16:26] I like that. Yeah, I like that. Track 1:[16:28] Yeah, we don't want to do exactly. We don't want to just look like them. We want to keep our original, you know, style of playing our instruments, but sounding like them. So, right. Track 2:[16:39] Right. Track 1:[16:40] I think it's a good combination. up in any other so far band that I've seen doing tributes to The Hips. They want to look like them. They sound decent. Track 4:[16:52] That happens, that happens. Track 3:[16:53] I could dress up like Paul McCartney, too. Do you guys find it... I was going to... This is like being something that's puzzling because I haven't seen, obviously I haven't seen you guys play live, but I'm wondering, you know, what your catalog covers and stuff but justlooking at how big the catalog of the hip is like I think you know if you took a band like like I used to Pink Floyd as an example before you know not many you know if you're in a coverband or a tribute band you're gonna you're gonna cover you know the wall you're gonna cover maybe a few things off like Wish You Were Here and Dark Sudden Moon You're not goingto do, yeah, I'm a goma. Track 2:[17:39] Yeah, no, probably not. Track 3:[17:40] No offense to Syd Barrett, but I think with a band like the hip or like Zeppelin, for example, the sound changes so much. Like like like little bones to fucking Tiger. The lion is like, yeah, it's like it's like the distance from Earth to Pluto instead of like Earth to Mars. It's like... How do you do that on stage? How do you like Go, okay. We're We're going into now for plan a or whatever. Track 1:[18:16] I personally You know I'm singing. I'm just trying to bring that same sound And each song I just look at it differently each songs its own person, right? So I don't in my mind. I don't put them together on albums each one has its own personality. So that's kind of how I think about it. Like we go from Highway Girl, which is probably our simplest instrumentally. And again, it's the first album, right? So like, I mean, the hip of the hip, but they weren't accomplished musicians like they were now for Plan A, right? So a little easier to play, but Gord was a little more wild with his voice, not as controlled. So you got to kind of bring that out as well. So that's kind of how I view those. Track 3:[19:06] It's a good approach. Yeah. That makes sense. It makes sense. Listening to the records like we have from start to finish, which I don't know if you guys listen to the podcast. I hope not. Yeah. Track 1:[19:16] Of course. Of course we do. Nice. Track 4:[19:19] That's great. Track 1:[19:21] Why don't you... Track 2:[19:23] What do you say you give us a little taste of what you guys do and perform a couple songs? Track 1:[19:28] That'd be awesome. Influences: Foo Fighters, Metallica, Outlaws, Guns N' RosesTrack 4:[28:01] What other influences have you guys had? I know you know one of you mentioned like Foo Fighters and Metallica and stuff. What else are you guys into? What were you into maybe when you know the hip was just going nuts in the 90s? What else were you guys listening to? Track 1:[28:18] I was a big Outlaws fan. I played a lot of the Outlaws. Just kind of like ladder skaters and stuff. Cool. I was a Guns N' Roses guy. Track 4:[28:28] All right, right on. Track 1:[28:31] I didn't know that. It's interesting. Sweet child of mine was the first song I ever heard. Rush, I liked playing Rush stuff too. Track 4:[28:41] Excellent. Track 1:[28:45] I like all types of music but I like real heavy and better. Pantera, like loud, just as a favorite. Sure. Track 4:[28:53] Nice. Track 1:[28:55] Yeah, I was the weird of my generation because, you know, back in Venezuela, whoever plays or like rocks, he wasn't in the, you know, he was not usual. So, but I like, you know, I started playing Sepultura, Pantera, Metallica. That's how I started playing. It wasn't sounding good, but that's, you know, but then with the years, when I learned a bit I actually got, you know, Peter from Spain, my favorite band ever,although they're tragically here is Eros del Silencio. That's my favorite band from Spain and that's my biggest influence in rock music. What's the name of it? Eros del Silencio is like Heroes of Silence. Track 3:[29:36] Oh yeah, yeah, totally, yeah. You know what's funny? I can hear a bit. I was told about that band a a number of times. Yeah, I've been I've seen like those fun at those a couple times and I mean they're big in spain There I would call them the closest thing to tragically hip In spain, especially later in theircareer, too but um Yeah, I mean I'm I'm, i'm name dropping now, but I went to the same high school as james james headfield um so metallica ran, quite deep in my Family and hometown.Yeah, sure Yeah, I mean back of it back of the day with the hip was plugging along You weren't you didn't you didn't own appetite for destruction. Track

3:[30:37] Yeah, you were the guy who thought like you were the guy to like me We also thought like G&R Lies was a great album where everybody was like, yeah, I like Patience, buteverything else fucking take it or leave it, man. Track 1:[30:49] No, it was everything. I learned most of that album as well. Track 3:[30:52] Yeah, it was a great album. Track 1:[30:56] As for me, I grew up listening to a lot of different stuff. Influences: Johnny Horton, Jimmy Reeves, The Stones[31:02] Anything from like Johnny Horton and Jimmy Reeves right up to The Stones, right? So a lot of influence, The Stones, probably my second favorite band. I've seen them nine times. Oh, wow. Yeah. Every time they come to Toronto, I think I've seen them since I was able to get in, so. Track 3:[31:18] Cool. I saw The Stones once and I almost didn't see them. My cousin Rocky, God rest his soul, was 24 years old, died of brain cancer. Horrible tragedy. just the day of his funeral, I had tickets to see The Stones at Angel Stadium and I'm like I'm not gonna go. Screw that. I mean, I just like just came back from Rocky'sfuneral. My mom's like. How disappointed would your cousin be to know that you missed the fucking Rolling Stones because of his ass? And I was like, good point. Went and never regretted it. Such a good show. When you guys played Poets, I wrote something down to ask, do you get Gimme Shelter vibes from that song? Like, I would imagine playing that song on guitar. There's a refrain towards the end when it just slows down and just dips into the rhythm where it sounds like the end of Keith Richardssolo I just now that you mentioned it I can see that for sure yeah yeah yeah maybe think of it when you guys are playing it but never I've never heard before when I've heard the song bythe hip then we're going to end up playing that. We're going to transition into the stones. The

4:[4:22] Oh, wow. Track 1:[4:26] Okay. that. It's probably me then. I've probably seen them 12, 15 times over the years. Yeah, I saw them on the last tour, neat little stories, the guy went to high school, when I had, the first time I saw them was a roadside attraction in Kiyoka at the Speedway, yeah samething, yeah, JD was probably, I think Oliver Waterford was there because it was so close. But a buddy of mine, well, JD, you know, Bill Ella, right? Track 2:[5:03] Yeah, yeah. Track 1:[5:03] So Bill and Bill and I went to our first hip concert together. And then when my fiance and I got tickets for the last tour, we got four tickets and I called him up said, Hey, man, we got to see the last one together too. So he jumped right on it. So himand his wife joined us. It was great. Track 2:[5:21] It's pretty special. What venue do you go to? Track 1:[5:24] We saw them at ACC. Track 2:[5:27] Oh wow, nice. Yeah, in Toronto. Yeah. Oh, man. Track 1:[5:31] Yeah. Yeah, yeah, it wasn't a dry eye in the place. It was pretty special, man. Yeah. Track 3:[5:41] Do you guys, and I ask this strictly, this is not like, you know, any remotely thing, judgmental, it's just a curious thing as far as musicians, but because I have a friend that wasplaying, he played a while in a tribute band for Floyd and then also one for Oasis, and he likes Floyd a lot, but he was like not an Oasis fan, but he played in it because, you know, Gigs agig. It's fun and it's cool. But like do you I would imagine that all of you guys genuinely like the tragic We have at least to some degree. Track 1:[6:16] Oh, yeah, or if not dig the shit out of them Yeah, and it's a riot to play it is so much fun to play the music it's lots of energy and I have an absolute riot playing it It looks like it fromthe videos i've seen I didn't know that many songs until I joined this band. I only knew a couple, like New Orleans is Sinking or probably Little Bones, but then these guys got me into them. Now that's all I hear. Oh, wow. So I love them so much and that's all I hear. it now. And I used to play like a really like you name it from from Metallica down to Bird Jam to Foo Fighters and now my favorite is Tragically Here. So yeah it's uh it's interesting when we play a show that uh, the fun part for me is not only playing the show and the people are into it like everybody you know that everybody's coming tosee the show knows the songs see they're going going to be singing. But after the show, the number of people that come up and want to tell you about the time they saw the hip or they have a story about when they met one of the members of the hip. So people just reconnect at our shows, which is a fun part for me. Track 4:[7:37] Sure, that's amazing. Track 2:[7:38] Yeah, it's like a community, right? Track 1:[7:40] Oh, absolutely, yeah. Track 3:[7:43] Yeah, and I mean, I gotta say, I've seen, obviously, not anything hip related, but like, for example, I remember seeing a Zeppelin tribute band that was really good, that I just kind oflike, I mean, I'm a diehard Zeppelin fan, like, you know, all eight studio records just flow through my veins and seeing that show was like, you know, I was like, OK, it's cool. And then Iwas just so wildly impressed. Like, I'm not the guy because I play, you know, you play, you play a gig, kind of like put your guitar, put your instruments away, go to the bar, have a beer, check out for the night,especially if it's a long show and you're tired. But like I was like, I got to go tell these people how fucking great they sounded and And how during this tune, the communication breakdown, he hit the solo perfect. That's so cool that you have people that... Because it's a testament to you guys being fucking really good at your craft and knowing how to play to the crowd. I can't wait to see you guys. Track 1:[8:56] Thank you, Lola. Yeah, we have a blast. The Complexity of Learning Songs on Instruments[9:00] Yeah, so these guys always mention, you know, when we're learning a song, they've got a a lot harder than I do, but a lot of folks who either don't play instruments or folks whoaren't hip fans that are playing instruments say, oh yeah, those songs are easy. But I'm sure these guys can tell you that they're not easy. There's all kinds of stuff going on. No way. Yeah, you've gotta really hit it to get the nuance of the song and the notes, but I don't know if you guys have examples, but. Two guitar parts are so very complementary to each other. There's really no rhythm or lead. There's just two guitars. And without one, the other just doesn't sound right. You have to have those two parts like the record, and then it gives you that sound. Yeah. So we're very picky about the sound. We use the right instruments. We try and use the right equipment wherever we can and re-crease that sound, like the record, as close as we can, right? Track 3:[10:05] Yep. The general rule with music, too, is if it sounds really hard, chances are it's not, and if it sounds really easy, chances are it's not, right? Track 1:[10:16] Isn't that the case? That is right. As I was saying, I used to play what I thought they were the hardest song to play, like the Foo Fighters, to name a few. But then I thought, okay, this doesn't sound difficult. man, I was wrong. It is difficult, it is, because it's just, we need to connect, like, you know, we need to be in sync to actually make it sound right, which is very interesting, and I love doing that. And theseguys are awesome. Yeah for that band, that's it Yeah, we're very lucky that everybody has the same ambition to make it sound like that. You know when everybody's in the groove it the music becomes a Uh part of the vocals everything. Yeah, it's one. It's a rare commodity Yeah, yes And we're lucky to look it lucky to have a guy that's on ligar like it's just It's just amazing. The Importance of Syncing and Connecting as a Band[11:07] Sometimes it's just man. It's just something great. It's I mean musically we are there and we have a good rhythm and we you know, we understand each other But what make a sound right is this guy here, right? This is something greatHopefully you'd like it, too I'm sure we will. [11:26] We won't even talk about bass because Based on some of the bass runs and and stuff is pretty crazy to me. Yeah, it's tough. [11:37] I think he was a guitar player actually, so he actually learned to play the bass as we came along. Yeah, I didn't even know the bass, so these guys called me, so I went to the music store and bought a bass and showed up and then started. It's been pretty good. Lots to learn. It's been a lot of fun, but I think it's just having five individuals, like being in a band like this is amazing because it's tough. I've played with lots of different musicians, but to have people that connect very tight like this, that is very, very hard to find. And playing bass in this band has probably been the best band I've ever been in. I've always played guitar, but playing the bass and getting that part and playing with these guys is actuallyamazing. So it's been pretty good, pretty good run so far. [12:33] That's cool, man. And a second instrument is always awesome anyway. You can't go wrong learning. I learned, oh, maybe 20 years ago, I picked up the fiddle and started playing fiddle. Oh, I became a fiddle player for about eight years. And then I got back into guitar and then that stopped. And then maybe about four years ago, I bought a banjo and oh my goodness, I was two years of banjo, banjo, banjo. And you learn, you pick up something from everything I've learned. I've picked up something that adds to the guitar tons. Totally, totally, totally. Appreciating the Skill of Great MusiciansTrack 3:[13:10] When we listen to, well, cause we interviewed Gord Sinclair, it was about a month and a half ago, something like that, maybe two months ago. And I had done this before, but I did it more so after we interviewed him. If you watch like a video that they're, a live video that they're playing, right? And watch it five times. Watch it five times. And each five times, once you focus on Johnny Fay, another time you focus on Gord Downie, another time you focus on Rob Baker, youknow, and so on and so forth. And you can just, if you just focus on them and their instrument, you realize how fucking, excuse my language, I'm dropping a lot of F-bombs, but how well they are at playing theirinstruments. Instruments, what good musicians they are. And to sound even remotely remotely close to them is not an easy task. It's not even close. Track 1:[14:09] Yeah, and as they've, you know, grown over the years, they've just gotten better, right? You just get better at your craft. So when you go and learn the newer albums or songs offthose it's even tougher. Track 3:[14:22] Yeah, I bet. Track 1:[14:23] But it's even more rewarding when we get together and sometimes, you know, we play the tune for the very first time and go, okay, we're going to learn this tune, we go away anddo our parts, we come back and we play it and we're all kind of blown away at how good it sounds sometimes the first time. You learn that part and they melt together so beautifully for that finished product that it's really rewarding. Mind-Blowing Live Transitions in MusicTrack 4:[14:53] Yeah, we were just listening. Yeah, we were just the guys and I were just listening to a live version of New Orleans is sinking where they transition in and out of nautical disasterand back into New Orleans is sinking. Have you guys tried anything like that as a band together? Because that that I mean, that just blew our minds, you know? Track 1:[15:12] Yeah, that's an interesting combination, isn't it? Yeah, we, uh, we do have a killer whale tank version on the, on the schedule eventually to, uh, to learn, uh, but, uh, yeah, we haven'tgot around to it. Uh, that's a big one. Shit. But yeah, yeah, I guess our focus has been so far just to try to, you know, owner what they recorded, so keep it as close as, as you know, the original And that's how I've been a focus sofar, you know. [15:46] It may migrate to, you know, do experiments, something like that. But so far, we're trying to actually, you know, honor that original record, original sound. And, you know, but sort of in a live version. So, yeah, as Ron was saying, it's so rewarding when you, you know, work hard on getting that song together and it, you know, it soundedactually very close, in our opinion, anyway. Yeah, we really try to bring the music and the live show to the stage, but not be the Tragical yet. We don't want to look like them or copy them. We want to bring their music to people. So all of the music. That's good. Track 2:[16:26] I like that. Yeah, I like that. Track 1:[16:28] Yeah, we don't want to do exactly. We don't want to just look like them. We want to keep our original, you know, style of playing our instruments, but sounding like them. So, right. Track 2:[16:39] Right. Track 1:[16:40] I think it's a good combination. up in any other so far band that I've seen doing tributes to The Hips. They want to look like them. They sound decent. Track 4:[16:52] That happens, that happens. Track 3:[16:53] I could dress up like Paul McCartney, too. Do you guys find it... I was going to... This is like being something that's puzzling because I haven't seen, obviously I haven't seen you guys play live, but I'm wondering, you know, what your catalog covers and stuff but justlooking at how big the catalog of the hip is like I think you know if you took a band like like I used to Pink Floyd as an example before you know not many you know if you're in a coverband or a tribute band you're gonna you're gonna cover you know the wall you're gonna cover maybe a few things off like Wish You Were Here and Dark Sudden Moon You're not goingto do, yeah, I'm a goma. Track 2:[17:39] Yeah, no, probably not. Track 3:[17:40] No offense to Syd Barrett, but I think with a band like the hip or like Zeppelin, for example, the sound changes so much. Like like like little bones to fucking Tiger. The lion is like, yeah, it's like it's like the distance from Earth to Pluto instead of like Earth to Mars. It's like... How do you do that on stage? How do you like Go, okay. We're We're going into now for plan a or whatever. Track 1:[18:16] I personally You know I'm singing. I'm just trying to bring that same sound And each song I just look at it differently each songs its own person, right? So I don't in my mind. I don't put them together on albums each one has its own personality. So that's kind of how I think about it. Like we go from Highway Girl, which is probably our simplest instrumentally. And again, it's the first album, right? So like, I mean, the hip of the hip, but they weren't accomplished musicians like they were now for Plan A, right? So a little easier to play, but Gord was a little more wild with his voice, not as controlled. So you got to kind of bring that out as well. So that's kind of how I view those. Track 3:[19:06] It's a good approach. Yeah. That makes sense. It makes sense. Listening to the records like we have from start to finish, which I don't know if you guys listen to the podcast. I hope not. Yeah. Track 1:[19:16] Of course. Of course we do. Nice. Track 4:[19:19] That's great. Track 1:[19:21] Why don't you... Track 2:[19:23] What do you say you give us a little taste of what you guys do and perform a couple songs? Track 1:[19:28] That'd be awesome. Influences: Foo Fighters, Metallica, Outlaws, Guns N' RosesTrack 4:[28:01] What other influences have you guys had? I know you know one of you mentioned like Foo Fighters and Metallica and stuff. What else are you guys into? What were you into maybe when you know the hip was just going nuts in the 90s? What else were you guys listening to? Track 1:[28:18] I was a big Outlaws fan. I played a lot of the Outlaws. Just kind of like ladder skaters and stuff. Cool. I was a Guns N' Roses guy. Track 4:[28:28] All right, right on. Track 1:[28:31] I didn't know that. It's interesting. Sweet child of mine was the first song I ever heard. Rush, I liked playing Rush stuff too. Track 4:[28:41] Excellent. Track

3:[29:36] Oh yeah, yeah, totally, yeah. You know what's funny? I can hear a bit. I was told about that band a a number of times. Yeah, I've been I've seen like those fun at those a couple times and I mean they're big in spain There I would call them the closest thing to tragically hip In spain, especially later in theircareer, too but um Yeah, I mean I'm I'm, i'm name dropping now, but I went to the same high school as james james headfield um so metallica ran, quite deep in my Family and hometown.Yeah, sure Yeah, I mean back of it back of the day with the hip was plugging along You weren't you didn't you didn't own appetite for destruction. Track

The Nourishment Mindset
Vitamin G & The Body's Innate Intelligence with Ben Azadi

The Nourishment Mindset

Y'all, Ben Azadi is one of my holistic health and low carb, real food idols. He is the author of four best selling books, creator/host of the Keto Kamp educational program and podcast, frequent featured speaker, fellow Floridian and a genuinely nice dude. Plus, he's a true dog lover! His German Shepherd Lab mix, Ziggy Stardust, is as spoiled as Travis McGee the Newfie: they both enjoy a carnivore diet, filtered water and practice intermittent fasting!During our conversation, we learn how Ben transformed himself from an obese, depressed and suicidal young man into a lean, strong personal trainer and Cross Fit gym owner. In his words, “hitting rock bottom can be a beautiful springboard.”Ben began his road to recovery with a book authored by Jeff Olson, The Slight Edge: Turning Simple Disciplines into Massive Success. In learning that little daily behavioral decisions can compound over time into big changes, he got his video game obsessed arse off the couch and began moving his body, which helped him feel a little better. Over time, he reprogrammed himself by “habit stacking small tweaks to create new neural pathways and big peaks.” Taking responsibility for his little decisions enabled him to become “the victor, not the victim of his choices.”We also discuss how and why nutritional ketosis is a great and ancient health tool, which can reset our modern day broken metabolisms. In essence, our bodies are programmed to heal with what Ben calls our “innate intelligence” in his terrific book, Keto Flex. He cautions us to pay attention to our symptoms, which are the body's “check engine light — a gift;” not something we should mask with multiple prescriptions. Ben also shares his four pillars for metabolic healing including periodically flexing out of ketosis, which is something I've personally incorporated after reading Keto Flex.To learn why Ben and I agree that we'd rather smoke cigarettes than eat toxic (and sadly ubiquitous) seed oils, you'll need to listen to the pod or watch the episode on Youtube, y'all! When you do, you'll learn about his top supplement for improving metabolic and mental health, sleep, and basically anything that ails: Vitamin G, a free but sadly hard to find substance in our modern lifestyles.“You become your environment, which determines your thoughts, which determine your actions, which determine your results.” - Ben Azadi, BenAzadi.comHave you read my book, The Nourishment Mindset?

Pet Loss and Grief: Paying Homage to Our Beloved Dogs

In this episode, we explore the weighty subject of humans finding ways to say goodbye to a beloved dog, and the spectrum of ways people deal with the grief of losing a beloved pet. For ages, proof of the unique bond between humans and dogs has existed in literature, song, and lore. But rarely discussed are the lengths humans will go to pay homage to their dogs after they have passed. Everyone mourns pet loss differently. From the creation of pet cemeteries to bestowing monetary gifts to cover future care, the love we feel for dogs extends beyond this earthly realm.   Bonafide Bits: In a 50 square meter plot in Ashkelon, Tel Aviv, some 1,300 dogs were individually buried between the 5th and 3rd centuries. The constellation Canis Major was named after Maira, the faithful hound of Ikarios, a winemaker of ancient Greece. Ronald Reagan famously dramatized George Graham Vest's Old Drum closing court argument. Famous women who left money to their dogs include Lauren Bacall, Joan Rivers, and Leona Helmsley.   Featured Breeds: Maltese The tiny Maltese, “Ye Ancient Dogge of Malta,” has been sitting in the lap of luxury since the Bible was a work in progress. Famous for their show-stopping, floor-length coat, Maltese are playful, charming, and adaptable toy companions. Discover more about Malteses at AKC's Maltese Breed Biography.   Yorkshire Terrier Beneath the dainty, glossy, floor-length coat of a Yorkshire Terrier beats the heart of a feisty, old-time terrier. Yorkies earned their living as ratters in mines and mills long before they became the beribboned lapdogs of Victorian ladies. The Yorkshire Terrier is a compact, toy-size terrier of no more than seven pounds whose crowning glory is a floor-length, silky coat of steel blue and a rich golden tan. Don't let the Yorkie's daintiness fool you. Tenacious, feisty, brave, and sometimes bossy, the Yorkie exhibits all the traits of a true terrier. Yorkies are long-lived and hypoallergenic (the coat is more like human hair than animal fur), and they make fine little watchdogs. This is a true “personality breed,” providing years of laughs, love, and close companionship. Discover more about Yorkshire Terriers at AKC's Yorkshire Terrier Breed Biography.   Drever The Drever is robust rather than elegant and speedy. They have a proud carriage, well-developed muscles, and an agile appearance. Affectionate, playful, and sweet, the Drever gets along well with most other breeds and is great in groups. The Drever was developed in the early twentieth century in Sweden. Hunting deer was difficult due to terrain and herd locations so hunters soon realized the benefits of using this short-legged, long-bodied dog to drive the deer over long distances and rough terrain right to them. A keen and even-tempered hound, the Drever is never aggressive, nervous, nor shy. They are content in most living situations but tend to be vocal when alerting or at play. Discover more about Drevers at AKC's Drever Breed Biography.   Pumi The Pumi (POO-mee; plural Pumik) was conceived as a compact, quick, and fearless sheepherder capable of moving flocks on the narrow roads connecting the pastures of western Hungary. At a glance, it might be hard to believe that this cuddly charmer was born to do such tough work. With his coat of corkscrew curls, circular tail, expressive ears, and distinctively whimsical look, the Pumi is all kinds of cute. But beneath the curls is a lean, deep-chested herder with a seemingly endless capacity for work and play. Discover more about Pumik at AKC's Pumi Breed Biography.   Löwchen A companion dog whose name is German for “little lion,” the Löwchen has been a popular pet among Continental Europeans for more than 500 years. The portable, non-shedding Löwchen is said to be affectionate, lively, and brave as a lion. Small dogs with enormous hearts, Löwchen (the same singular or plural) stand a bit over a foot tall at the shoulder. The coat is traditionally kept in a “lion clip,” in which most of the hindquarters and tail are clipped down close to the skin. The overall effect is that of a mini lion, with a full mane and plumed tail. The coat comes in several colors and color combinations. Beneath the coat is a dog that's strong and sturdy, but elegant and artfully balanced. Discover more about Löwchen at AKC's Löwchen Breed Biography.   Boerboel Boerboels are intimidating but discerning guardians of home and family who learned their trade while protecting remote South African homesteads from ferocious predators. They are dominant and confident, also bright and eager to learn. There's a no-frills, no-nonsense quality to this sleek-coated avenger, which might stand as high as 27 inches at the shoulder and weigh as much as you do. A broad and blocky head, powerful jaws, and thick muscles from neck to rump mark it as a descendant of the ancient “molloser” dog family, the foundation of today's mastiff-type breeds. In motion, the Boerboel just might be the most agile of all mastiff types. The imposing Boerboel is devoted to protecting the people and places he loves. This is a trainable, versatile breed, eager to spend time with their adored humans. Discover more about Boerboels at AKC's Boerboel Breed Biography.   Canaan Dog One of the AKC's oldest breeds, the Canaan Dog is the national dog of Israel. This quick, medium-sized pasture dog is docile with family and aloof with strangers. The ever-alert Canaan is a vocal and persistent guardian of flock and home. Canaan Dogs are lean, bushy-tailed dogs standing 19 to 24 inches at the shoulder. The coat is straight and harsh and comes in various colors and patterns. Erect, expressive ears and dark almond eyes convey an inquisitive expression. Canaans move at a brisk, natural trot. They are rugged, agile, and apparently tireless, making them a nice fit for hikers and runners. Canaans are clever, confident, and territorial. They will end up "owning" passive owners who haven't established themselves as the top dog in the family pack. Agility, obedience, herding trials, and sentry duty are a few outlets for their work ethic. Discover more about Canaan Dogs at AKC's Canaan Dog Breed Biography.   Cane Corso Smart, trainable, and of noble bearing, the assertive and confident Cane Corso is a peerless protector. The Corso's lineage goes back to ancient Roman times, and the breed's name roughly translates from the Latin as “bodyguard-dog.” Discover more about Cane Corsos at AKC's Cane Corso Breed Biography.   German Shepherd Dog There are many reasons why German Shepherd Dogs stand in the front rank of canine royalty, but experts say their defining attribute is character: loyalty, courage, confidence, the ability to learn commands for many tasks, and the willingness to put their life on the line in defense of loved ones. German Shepherd Dogs will be gentle family pets and steadfast guardians, but, the breed standard says, there's a “certain aloofness that does not lend itself to immediate and indiscriminate friendships.” Discover more about German Shepherd Dogs at AKC's German Shepherd Dog Breed Biography.   Akita Akitas are burly, heavy-boned spitz-type dogs of imposing stature. Standing 24 to 28 inches at the shoulder, Akitas have a dense coat that comes in several colors, including white. The head is broad and massive and is balanced in the rear by a full, curled-over tail. The erect ears and dark, shining eyes contribute to an expression of alertness, a hallmark of the breed. Akitas are quiet, fastidious dogs. Wary of strangers and often intolerant of other animals, Akitas will gladly share their silly, affectionate side with family and friends. They thrive on human companionship. The large, independent-thinking Akita is hardwired for protecting those they love. They must be well-socialized from birth with people and other dogs. Discover more about Akitas at AKC's Akita Breed Biography.   Newfoundland The massive Newfoundland is a strikingly large, powerful working dog of heavy bone and dignified bearing. The sweet-tempered Newfie is a famously good companion and has earned a reputation as a patient and watchful “nanny dog” for kids. Discover more about Newfoundlands at AKC's Newfoundland Breed Biography.   Black and Tan Coonhound Large, athletic hunters who work nights, Black and Tan Coonhounds are friendly, easygoing hounds who love company. They are snoozy by the fireside but tenacious when on the trail of the wily raccoon. The Black and Tan Coonhound is a real American original. Black and Tans have an amazingly sensitive nose, long, velvety ears, and a sweet disposition. The coal-black coat features rich tan accents, including the distinctive “pumpkin seeds” above keenly expressive eyes. These are big, strong hounds: A good-sized male can stand 27 inches at the shoulder and cover ground with effortless, eager strides. Black and Tan Coonhounds are sociable hounds. Discover more about Black and Tan Coonhounds at AKC's Black and Tan Coonhound Breed Biography.   Papillon The quick, curious Papillon is a toy dog of singular beauty and upbeat athleticism. Despite his refined appearance, the Pap is truly a “doggy dog” blessed with a hardy constitution. Papillon fanciers describe their breed as happy, alert, and friendly. A tiny dog, measuring 8 to 11 inches at the shoulder, you can still spot a Papillon a block away thanks to the large, wing-shaped ears that give the breed its name (“papillon” is French for “butterfly”). Some Paps have erect ears; in others, known as the Phalene type, the ears are down. Paps are dainty and elegant, with a plumed tail, and a long, silky coat of several color combinations, the base color being white. More robust than they look, Paps are little dogs for all seasons and reasons. They thrive in warm or cool climates, in town or country, and are eager to join the family fun. They are excellent agility dogs and are consistent winners at the sport's highest levels; less ambitious owners can train them to do all kinds of tricks. Discover more about Papillons at AKC's Papillon Breed Biography.   Havanese Havanese, the only dog breed native to Cuba, are cheerful little dogs with a spring in their step and a gleam in their big, brown eyes. These vivacious and sociable companions are becoming especially popular with American city dwellers. Discover more about Havanese at AKC's Havanese Breed Biography.   Parson Russell Terrier The Parson Russell Terrier is bold and clever, swift enough to run with horses and fearless enough to dig in and flush a fox from his lair. Independent problem-solvers, PRTs can have their own ideas on how to go about things. Discover more about Parson Russell Terriers at AKC's Parson Russell Terrier Breed Biography.   Border Collie A remarkably bright workaholic, the Border Collie is an amazing dog — maybe a bit too amazing for owners without the time, energy, or means to keep it occupied. These energetic dogs will settle down for cuddle time when the workday is done. Discover more about Border Collies at AKC's Border Collie Breed Biography.   Japanese Chin Chin are the unrivaled noblemen of Japanese breeds. They're tiny “indoorsy” companions, with an unmistakably Eastern look and bearing. The head is large, the muzzle short, and the round, dark eyes convey, as Chin fans like to say, a “look of astonishment.” The profuse mane around the neck and shoulders, the plumed tail arching over the back, and the pants or “culottes” on the hind legs project the elegant, exotic appearance so typical of Asia's royal line of laptop cuddle bugs. Discover more about Japanese Chins at AKC's Japanese Chin Breed Biography.   For more information about a specific breed visit the breed's parent club or AKC.org.   Shareables: Likely the closing argument by George Vest in the legal battle of Burden v. Hornsby solidified the truth that dogs are members of the family. Dogs are more than mere property. They're special. The law says so! Strictly speaking, a dog cannot inherit money although a trust can be established to care for it.

Leading the Way — Part 1: The History of Guide Dogs

In this podcast episode, we introduce you to a pivotal moment in the story of humans and canines, the training of guide dogs for the blind and visually impaired. Historical data suggests that throughout the millennia, dogs have been in service to humans. From a town square in Ancient China to the perilous battlefields of World War I, dogs have sacrificed their own needs and desires to care for, save, and guide us. Trainers spend months working diligently with guide dogs and their human partners in complex training exercises to prepare them for the tasks. It just may be that dogs are the only animal on earth that provide unconditional obedience paired with unconditional love.   Bonafide Bits: There are 2,100 guide dog teams across North America and 22,000 teams worldwide. A 13th-century Chinese scroll depicts a dog guiding a visually impaired person. Several breeds of dogs were trained to assist WW1 soldiers who were rendered sightless by poison gas. In 1927, Dorothy Harrison Eustis wrote The Seeing Eye, a Saturday Evening Post magazine article that introduced America to the concept of training dogs to guide the blind and visually impaired. In 1926, Minnesota Senator Thomas D. Schall introduced a bill that allowed guide dogs to accompany their humans on public transit and in restaurants, an early precursor to the public access rights given to guide dogs under the Americans With Disabilites act   Featured Breeds: Golden Retriever The Golden Retriever, an exuberant Scottish gundog of great beauty, stands among America's most popular dog breeds. They are serious workers at hunting and fieldwork, as guides for the blind, and in search-and-rescue, enjoy obedience and other competitive events, and have an endearing love of life when not at work. Discover more about Golden Retrievers at AKC's Golden Retriever Breed Biography.   Labrador Retriever The sweet-faced, lovable Labrador Retriever is America's most popular dog breed. Labs are friendly, outgoing, and high-spirited companions who have more than enough affection to go around for a family looking for a medium-to-large dog. Labs are famously friendly. They are companionable housemates who bond with the whole family, and they socialize well with neighbor dogs and humans alike. But don't mistake his easy-going personality for low energy: The Lab is an enthusiastic athlete that requires lots of exercise like swimming and marathon games of fetch, to keep physically and mentally fit. Discover more about Labrador Retrievers at AKC's Labrador Retriever Breed Biography.   German Shepherd Dog There are many reasons why German Shepherd Dogs stand in the front rank of canine royalty, but experts say their defining attribute is character: loyalty, courage, confidence, the ability to learn commands for many tasks, and the willingness to put their life on the line in defense of loved ones. German Shepherd Dogs will be gentle family pets and steadfast guardians, but, the breed standard says, there's a “certain aloofness that does not lend itself to immediate and indiscriminate friendships.” Discover more about German Shepherd Dogs at AKC's German Shepherd Dog Breed Biography.   Poodle Forget those old stereotypes of Poodles as sissy dogs. Poodles are eager, athletic, and wickedly smart “real dogs” of remarkable versatility. The Standard, with his greater size and strength, is the best all-around athlete of the family, but all Poodles can be trained with great success. Discover more about Poodles at AKC's Poodle (Standard) Breed Biography.   Boxer Loyalty, affection, intelligence, work ethic, and good looks: Boxers are the whole doggy package. Bright and alert, sometimes silly, but always courageous, the Boxer has been among America's most popular dog breeds for a very long time. Discover more about Boxers at AKC's Boxer Breed Biography.   Doberman Pinscher Sleek and powerful, possessing both a magnificent physique and keen intelligence, the Doberman Pinscher is one of dogkind's noblemen. This incomparably fearless and vigilant breed stands proudly among the world's finest protection dogs. Discover more about Doberman Pinschers at AKC's Doberman Pinscher Breed Biography.   Collie The majestic Collie, thanks to a hundred years as a pop-culture star, is among the world's most recognizable and beloved dog breeds. The full-coated “rough” Collie is the more familiar variety, but there is also a sleek “smooth” Collie. Discover more about Collies at AKC's Collie Breed Biography.   Pointer The noble Pointer is the ultimate expression of canine power and grace. Unquestioned aristocrats of the sporting world, Pointers carry themselves proudly and are capable of great speed and agility. The coat comes in several colors, solid or in patterns but as the breed's devotees like to say, a good Pointer can't be a bad color. A large male can stand 28 inches at the shoulder and weigh up to 75 pounds; a small female might weigh as little as 45 pounds and stand 23 inches. Discover more about Pointers at AKC's Pointer Breed Biography.   Airedale Terrier His size, strength, and unflagging spirit have earned the Airedale Terrier the nickname “The King of Terriers.” The Airedale stands among the world's most versatile dog breeds and has distinguished himself as a hunter, athlete, and companion. Discover more about Airedale Terriers at AKC's Airedale Terrier Breed Biography.   Giant Schnauzer The Giant Schnauzer is a larger and more powerful version of the Standard Schnauzer, and he should, as the breed standard says, be a “bold and valiant figure of a dog.” Great intelligence and loyalty make him a stellar worker and companion. Discover more about Giant Schnauzers at AKC's Giant Schnauzer Breed Biography.   Newfoundland The massive Newfoundland is a strikingly large, powerful working dog of heavy bone and dignified bearing. The sweet-tempered Newfie is a famously good companion and has earned a reputation as a patient and watchful “nanny dog” for kids. Discover more about Newfoundlands at AKC's Newfoundland Breed Biography.   Puli No other breed can be mistaken for the Puli, a compact but powerful herder covered from head to tail with profuse, naturally occurring cords. Bred to work closely with humans, these agile and faithful little dynamos are quick learners. First, there are those dreadlocks, the instantly recognizable feature of the Puli (pronounced "Poo-lee", "Pulik" is the plural). The coat's naturally occurring cords are wooly, dense, and weatherproof. Either corded or brushed out, Puli coats require lots of attention. Under the dreads there's a compact but powerful dog, standing 16 to 17 inches at the shoulder. Pulik are remarkably agile and light on their feet, earning a reputation as the “acrobat of the dog world.” Discover more about Pulick at AKC's Puli Breed Biography.   For more information about a specific breed visit the breed's parent club or AKC.org.   Shareables: In 1843, Charles Dickens wrote of guide dogs in his classic “A Christmas Carol.” A freak cigar-lighting accident led Senator Thomas D. Schall to introduce a bill that is the basis of guide dog accessibility laws in place today. When her guide dog Emma began having vision problems, newly sighted Sheila Hocken switched roles to guide the Labrador Retriever during the final months of her dog's life.

Well it's been a while since I have had on an old Lister friend, which felt like it was becoming a staple of the podcast so today we rectify that with my good friend Emma Russell! Not only is Emma a bad ass rock star but she is also a nurse currently doing a rural nursing stint in her adopted home of Newfoundland! It was great to hear all about where Emma's obsession with Newfie's came from, how her new home is welcoming her as well as her hopes and dreams for the future. We mostly talked music and old stories and catching up on how far her musical journey has come since she first showed me the few songs she could play on guitar all those years ago back in residence. I always knew Emma had a great voice and could shred a piano but since then she has evolved so much as an artist and has really grown into the rockstar she always (loudly) proclaimed herself to be! Check out her Instagram linked below to see her play as well as her band sound system to see some of the live performances we chatted about in the podcast and lastly the novascotibales band Emma speaks so highly of!Emma:  @emmyrussySound System: @soundsystem.bandNova Scotiables: @novascotiables
